Player Watch 2023 AFL Draft Pool Discussion Thread

[Strapping Young Lad]

Same rule applies to this thread as other years, keep it on topic about the kids.
Don’t get bogged down on what other teams might do or where they will finish.

Trade speculation belongs here.
That's also where you can discuss your mock drafts or pick trades.

Any McCabe, Dear or Maginness talk belongs here.

 

[Dipper]

You beauty!

 

[kenneje]

Could not be happier. Feeling a little emotional seeing our new superstar so overwhelmed.

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

The WIZ it is

 

[cryptor]

So much relief from Watson getting picked by us. Could tell it meant a lot to him. Love him already!

 

[Sturty]

LETS GO WIZARD!!!!!

 

[KermitJagger]

Welcome Nick! Short king or not I'm glad to have you at the Hawks. Love to see the emotion too, wants to succeed.

 

[Baz_hawk]

I'd love for us to get back in and take Curtin.

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

i reckon there's a very good chance the Wiz becomes my favourite player

 

[hawkheart]

Congrats to Manila Hawk whose avatar is indeed a wizard! Prophetic!

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

Zane Duursma have any idea who presented his jumper? Welcome Wiz

 

[Cyzzametimbres]

Wiz looked pumped! Love it.

 

[Ashman23]

I like that Watson mentioned he likes a bit of lip and (as much as we hate him) likes Tom Papley

[phreeze77]

So happy right now

 

[Brishawk]

I'd love for us to get back in and take Curtin.

Wpuld be a dream. Rate him so highly. But caddy, sully or wilson would also be awesome. Massive fan if the candyman.

 

[OnWardnUpWard]

Watto looked stoked.

We’re stoked it’s you Wiz.

 

[Billyc]

Love it. This will be a fun career to watch

 

[Roddy]

Well we have forwards laid on thick now, hangin’ on the official word on McCabe…

 

[pd_89]

Watson is gonna learn a lot from Gunston and Breust and I'm all for it. Hopefully they rub off on Ginnivan too.

 

[Brishawk]

I like that Watson mentioned he likes a bit of lip and (as much as we hate him) likes Tom Papley's play.

Him and ginny will make us hated

 

[TylerDurden]

WIZZZZZARRRDDDDD!!!!

 

[macdaddio]

Are we any chance of still getting Curtain

 

[blackheart]

Hopefully they rub off on Ginnivan too.

And i'm off for a Wiz.

 

[TazHawk15]

How unreal for the kid to get the jumper off Tucky, you could see when his name was called how emotional he was.

Welcome to the most successful club of the last half a century, young fella.

 

[theiaofseed]

Now it's interesting do GWS/Geelong trade out?

 

[Hodgey 15]

The Wiz!!
