Prediction 2019 "Hypothetical Trade, FA, random player you wish we could get" thread..

[Platten44]

Heard there was Issie movement on Friday, don't be surprised. If it does happen we need to get outside run ridiculously bad though

Not happening and never was.

Exactly. Given that they'll not be as good as Smitty, it's kinda counter-productive.

Don't be surprised to see Scrimshaw running the wings a lot this season.

Your guess or something you've heard?

Just my thoughts, but I reckon Gunston will spend a bit of time playing Wing - especially if Smith goes & as Hendo slows down.

This is his original draft write up

Sandringham Dragons’ Jack Scrimshaw is a hybrid defender that is better playing small than tall. Scrimshaw plays with plenty of X-Factor and is appealing to the eye across defence. He can dash in between packs, take some eye catching marks and pinpoint a left foot pass that looks impossible to the naked eye. His versatility is appealing to clubs as there is no position he couldn’t play, with teammate Andrew McGrath declaring he could even play in the ruck if required. Scrimshaw pushed onto a wing during the championships and in the TAC Cup he has floated forward on occasions, most notably in the TAC Cup Finals and particular the second half of the Grand Final. He does look most at home controlling the defence. Mutliple injuries have affected him over the last two seasons, but has been injury free since mid year. If Scrimshaw wants to become an inside midfielder, in the ‘Bontempelli’ category he will need to improve his competitiveness and contested ball winning abilities.

Interesting that my very reliable source is saying the complete opposite

You don't need a source to know we were never trading for pick 2 and we were never trading contracted best 22 players that do not want to leave. The Ryan Burton trade was a once a decade thing and was done because the club was reasonably confident he would head home at the end of his contract.

 

[Kinghts 24]

Patton deal said to be agreed on now, and about to be announced.

Dear God let it be a really late pick.

The way Clarko spoke after the last round and Jeff’s letter made it sound like the Hawks were going to be quite active this offseason. Although we still may delist some beloved players im starting to think maybe things haven’t gone quite to plan this trade period.

100% it hasn't gone as planned, the club know we need serious talent on all lines if we're to meet the ambition of a flag or two by the end of 2022.

But we have serious talent on all the lines.
Back - Frawley
HB - Sicily
Centre - Smith
HF - Gunston
F - Bruest
Foll - Mitchell
Coaches - Clarkson

An interesting fact about Bigfooty is that if you removed all posts about needing a heap more serious talent in order to win premierships, Hodgeyroad would drop from 15,088 posts to only 12 posts.

 

[eastley]

Patton now a Hawks for future 4th..
If Finn goes after pick 11, we should have the points.

Yeah at this stage we can easily afford a bid at 12.

 

[LegendLewis]

Reckon the Patton deal may balance out with something else in the works.

Maybe he is thinking about leaving though...
