Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

[Strapping Young Lad]

2024 Picks



2025 Picks

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

I like this.

Im a fan of Chol but can we win a flag with him as the main key forward? Membrey is a free hit who buys us time to wait for a bigger fish to come along and/or Dear to develop more.

Also keeps our assets in hand for something big next year...

He's no slouch either. 30 goals this year. Pencil in 50+ under Sammy

 

[Bugs1977]

SYL gave the clue a few posts ago.

I refuse to accept that clue. I need someone else

 

[hawkheart]

Anyone had the time or inclination to wade through the latest (re)G(r)ettable?

 

[stevehawkington]

Gee membrey only 30 years old. For some reason thought he was a bit older. Could be a good value pick

i can't think of anyone on the hawks list that should be cut for a 30yr old membrey

I'm not keen on saints forwards but if sam mitchell wants it i will trust

You can't but you back in Lewis to get healthy or Dear to become elite. Preferably both.

 

[westhawk]

Is he following Tim Membrey?

Would be more than happy having Tim in a Hawks jumper.

 

[peetoo]

Could easily get Soldo if Reeves were to leave. He would be my main target as a backup to Meek.

Yes I’m sure he could slot into the system with no hiccups

 

[Mercy Seat]

Yep. The Merrett one was an embarrassment.

SEN was saying it was coming from Merrett's management (similar to the Stringer related leak a few weeks back)....

 

[butlers hawks]

remember when it came out that Barrass wanted to come over and then just as that started to slow in here Battle was reported??

geez those were the days

Don't think Tim will replace Chol. Not at least until Mitch is back.

Think he will be fighting for the spot with Gunston.

 

[I wanna pash Nash]

Yup. Membrey is a 3rd tall not a KPP. I like it.

 

[peetoo]

For mine Calsher could be a Gunston but bigger and more athletic. Chol is Hale hopefully. Already got some toe might need to improve stamina, which is a weird thing to say about an East African descendant

 

[TylerDurden]

Membrey is only 188cm.
He's literally Cam Mackenzie height.

 

[Whistling Hawk]

I think we’re looking for depth in all parts of the ground to cover injuries. Membrey would be good to come in if we needed another tall/medium forward (I know he’s medium but he plays tall).

Saying that I thought Chol was excellent all year but was uncompetitive and almost absent in the finals. Wouldn’t be surprised if we’re looking for a back up forward given his recent form.

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

it's disturbing how tall some of our midfielders are. Nash must scare the shit out of some of his opponents

 

[daniel23]

Membreys end of season form was very strong.

 

[TylerDurden]

I'm told Perryman won't be us. Which I'm fine with.

 

[Hawked Wings]

On Chol. He was never going to be a number one key forward but played as that for probably 18 games and won our goal kicking this year with nearly 40 goals. People who want him out of the side after 2 average games are kidding themselves, hell be fine
Ps. He was carrying a niggle in the port game

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Yeah not on board with this Chol hate

Exceeded expectations after having to play number 1 when that wasn't the plan. You have to remember he is on leage average wage.

 

[CaptainWorpedo]

I think Chol still has more upside with another good preseason and more time to game plan with his current forwards.

Dear and Chol did an amazing job in 2024. Dear will be another who benefits from another preseason with the Hawks.

 

[Bugs1977]

Yup. Membrey is a 3rd tall not a KPP. I like it.

We'd have to trust that Roughie has some decent intel on that one if it eventuates

 

[Bugs1977]

Could easily get Soldo if Reeves were to leave. He would be my main target as a backup to Meek.

Soldo is only OOC in 2025 so we'd have to trade for him. What would he be worth if Reeves is traded?

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

Its not hate ffs.

Its objective look at the best option to win a flag moving forward.

Its so tiring that any criticism of anyone on the board gets put aside as hate. I understand that you want to stick up for all the lads and thats great, but we all want the same thing

 

[Buttonsticher]

The only suggestion I have for Cholie is that he works on his tank. 40 goals and the wailing and gnashing of teeth continues FFS
