My thoughts exactly - if we can pull off a similar coup in this years "weak" draft we will be okHawks did ok out of the 2013 draft
24 Billy Hartung Good get (almost in our best 22)
38 Dayle Garlett miss but worth the risk considering we were going to draft Sicily with this pick
56 James Sicily looking good
59 John Ceglar (when Hale retires will be constantly in our best 22)
71 Will Langford (In our best 22)
Rookie draft
17 Dallas Willsmore (may make it, promoted to senior list in 2014)
33 Derick Wanganeen (played a couple of games, delisted miss)
48 Zac Webster (promoted to senior list probably will be delisted)
57 Ben Ross (played 4 games in 2014 then delisted)
61 Kurt Heatherley ( Gibbo's replacement being promoted to senior list
65 Shem-Kalvin Tatupu (He is coming along nicely may play some game next year)
From what I can see the 2013 draft looks mighty fine to me
Jar Jar was a pretty clumsy character (in many ways). Clarko would be accidentally putting holes in walls all the time I imagine
Ceglar and Langford were already at the club. They were promoted from the rookie list. Kurt, Shem and Ross were not part of the under 18 talent pool. Derick Wanganeen was also on the rookie list for the second time. Despite all that I think we did really well getting Hartung and Sicily with our picks as there is barely a player worth talking about in their region of the drat we could have taken instead. Will wait and see on Wilsmore (not sure of his AFL position) and Webster (injury prone and not a great kick).Hawks did ok out of the 2013 draft

A little bit of vomit....came up and then went back down my throat.View attachment 171886 Thoughts?
Lol. Unlike a lot of Hawks fans this would not worry me in the slightest.
It worries me..potentially adding another 33 year old to the list whilst taking another kids spot that needs game time.
Not the answer.

I hope its true.

Dew-esque
I did note that I would have preferred McStay to Hartung. I rate Brown also. Will wait and see on the rest.Here are the players who were picked below Billy who have made useful contributions to their clubs taken after Billy who were not rookie elevations
picks 25 Mcstay, 26 Merrett, 28 Taylor (2014Raising Star),35 Pearce, 40 Kenedy-Haris, 42 Kolodjasnij, 47 Brown, 50 Gordon , 51 Holman, 60 Honeychurch, 65 Langdon, 66 Lloyd, 77 Marsh
Id probably only take Merrett, Brown, Kolo and Langdon out of that lot and we pretty much could have if Garlett was so enticing!Here are the players who were picked below Billy who have made useful contributions to their clubs taken after Billy who were not rookie elevations

One of my lot? I can't vouch for the 1000 other essendon bf posters.... I'm only telling you what I had heard today!! Whether or not it was known the hawks where talking to him in previous weeks, I know that it had become news to his team mates as of this week of that offer! As I said I was only bringing up some trade discussion (as that's what this thread is about) but I'll be quite happy to see myself out if your not happy with me being here!!
Stevie J hates Hawthorn as much as anyone. Not going to happen and I'm glad it won't
Its amazing what you will do when faced with your football mortaility.
