Hawks getting impatient on contract, says Buddy

Lance Franklin admits Hawthorn is getting impatient over contract

www.afl.com.au

"But at this stage it's Hawthorn where I want to be at."

That article is coming straight from the source too.

King may re-sign like the article says, but I'm just pointing out that this thing you do of dismissing everything in the most authoritative way possible has backfired before and chances are will probably backfire again.

Remember when Chol told us no

Bump

 

[Lickmesocks]

I shudder to think what it would take for them to let a contracted Lukosious go.

They are no longer trying to rebuild, they want to contend. They aren’t moving him for picks. They would be demanding quality player/players and picks

We have two top 10 picks in Ward and Mackenzie that are inside mids that can’t crack a spot.

the one spot that they are fully stocked is that position

 

[Back Pocket Rocket]

We’ve quite literally been telling anyone who would listen for two+ years that we want to add a key forward next to Lewis.

Chol and Dear?

Ah yes and those guy will be able to crack a midfield spot at GC with their mids...

Don’t discount a good old fashioned three way, let alone more. I reckon we might be forced to move one or two “talented” mids.

Any way, a lot of water to go under the bridge!

 

[HawthornHawk]

Allen the pre agent. More a chance to leave this year than next as eagles can trade him

If you're West Coast and you want to cash out for Allen, you wait for him to get you a top 3 compo pick next year

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Chol and Dear?

Chol is a third tall, Dear a project player who while provides us a contest, is also still very raw and can get beaten quite a bit by bigger bodies.

We want someone of Lewis’s ilk to partner with him.

Cant wait to see what Dear looks like round 1 next year after a full pre-season eating weights

I really hope our nutritionist steps in if he plans on eating weights.

They are crunchy but great for the beach bod

I now see why so many ex players are keen to get involved in list management

I don't doubt it, moving to the GC because of lack of mid opportunities at Hawthorn would be a brave decision for the Hawks mid if they did

Have a look at his big brother. He will not be an undersized player long. Only thing holding him back at the moment is endurance, strength/mass to hold spot, and experience.

I don't want to risk the player he will become by putting someone in his way just because they are a bit older. I thought Patton got in the way of Lewis but thankfully didn't last long.

I don’t think Chol is suited to being a third tall, when he had that year at GC he was the main man and look how he has gone this year being the main man.
If he becomes the 3rd option I think he may lose interest and not be a factor in games IMO

Lose interest?

From memory Schoenmakers came back after summer looking like the hulk.

I’m not the one suggesting that an AFL player would “lose interest” in playing their role and being more than adequately compensated for doing so.

 

[eldorado]

I can imagine Chol just walking off mid-game if they make him third option.

Probably wander off to Bunnings for a sausage, maybe JB-Hifi, have a flick through indie...

IMO
