[MrPremiership]

Obligatory post to say that not all Hawthorn players are angels, either.

not many get traded to other clubs because of it

 

[MrPremiership]

This might not be such a bad thing. The last time an ex-Geelong player played for Hawthorn...

right place, right time

Finn second in the 2km time trial today. Continues to turn heads

Finn second in the 2km time trial today. Continues to turn heads

He's turning too many!

Edit: Both he and the eventual winner, Jay Rantall, broke the 2km time trial record by over 10 seconds. Bear in mind that it has only been running since 2017 when it replaced the 3km time trial.

Not only did he come 2nd, but he beat the existing record by 13 seconds!!!

If it's true that we're yet to make a commitment to him then it's our own fault. He's been forced into a situation where he needs to try his best to impress the club and by extension every other club.

I would have thought he'd shown more than enough prior to the combine for the club to be sold on him. Apparently not. Surely the club is taking him after these results.

 

[Pessimistic]

Hes from lara, Dermie. Maybe the price on his head has lapsed

The club isn't not sold on him, he's been at the club for training and stuff quite a few times actually. He was there in the pre-season with the new draftees.

Stop it Finn.

We wont have our pick 11 anyway - We will be using other picks/points to get him so who cares how well he is doing

Going to the combine also proves to us he is worth us taking him as a F/S pick

 

[Flamin Joe]

We always bang on about how we don't leak or we keep in the vault. Why would we now give assurances to him that we'll pick him and basically declare to the football world of our intentions?

 

[tige19]

He ran 5.51, unbelievable.

If we had of committed to him he wouldn’t even be there, we should have Parked all this and kept him under wraps. If he gets nominated inside the top 10 it’s a massive **** up by us.

We want to give up the lease amount as possible

This isn't true

Rogie used a double negative. Are you saying the club actually isn't sold on Finn?

my bad, didn't pick up the double negative.

The club are keen on him as long as its not a stupid bid.

There was chatter on this board earlier in the year that Clarko wasn't a fan of Finn, which is complete rubbish

 

[Hawker55]

Christensen fits the Clarkson mould in some respects, as Fagan appeared to rotate Christensen through half-forward and midfield (when he was available). Averaged 13.5 disposals a game and 1.2 goals a game. He ranked equal second in the AFL for tackles inside 50 per game (2.00 tackles inside 50 per game).

For reference, Puopolo averaged 1.86 tackles inside 50 per game (fourth in the AFL), and Breust averaged 1.68 tackles inside 50 per game (sixth in the AFL). Jamie Elliott averaged 1.62 tackles inside 50 per game.

He’d fit the bill for 2-3 years between Pop going and Hanrahan maturing.

At Hawthorn we're such law abiding citizens we wouldn't want to compromise the draft in any way shape or form would we ?

 

[nickrebellious]

Hawks had a video on Facebook with all the sons and daughters of former Hawk players down at Waverley. I think I spotted Noah Anderson in the video, I'm not sure. Also Paul Hudson has 4 sons. Good viewing anyway.

Apparently Adam Yze is interviewing today for the vacant Adelaide post.

Stupid really... Professional clubs all over the world in every sport hide talented juniors, one would imagine a kid being so ingrained into the fabric of our footy club would be a priority to blanket eh?

Disappointing Burns muffed the interview process, hopefully he picks up an assistant role elsewhere in 2020.

Hahah yeah mate I agree with you wholeheartedly.

Gone surely are the days where were hiding Rioli and training him up in interviews with rival clubs to say that he wasn’t a fan of training and hard work.
