Lowest point physically and mentally might I add. Not what this club is about.When was the last time a player got traded under the cloud of a long term injury? Silly thing to do. Selling a player at their lowest value.
Dees were apparently after him over a year ago… correct TylerDurden?The only reason this is a thing is because (probably Melbourne) have thought they could get him on the cheap. It'll be the Dees or North sounding him out before offering a second rounder for him, and him saying no before the club even get the chance to.
It's a complete non story, but the 24 hour news cycle demands it.
Sure, goes without saying! I was just speaking from the club standpoint. Unsettling a bloke in the middle of their recovery and rehab is also very silly.Lowest point physically and mentally might I add. Not what this club is about.
It would be an Essendone type thing to doSure, goes without saying! I was just speaking from the club standpoint. Unsettling a bloke in the middle of their recovery and rehab is also very silly.
That is the plan. Hopeful about Ryan. Dimma would be very hard to replace, but I am told a replacement is on the list. Let’s call it a “enhancement”. Just like Perryman, even though more midfield is on the cards. I know I keep saying it, but Sam want’s flexibility, interchangeable positions.Yeah that's my point those 4 are keeping Breust and Wingard out of the forward line. Hardwick would need to replace 1 of MacDonald, Moore, Ginnivan or Watson. Chol and Dear the other 2 as talls, Gunston,Scaife and Lewis will also play games as tall forwards.
So for Hardwick to play forward he needs to displace 1 of the existing 4 smalls. And we need to have Ryan, Mitchell or B. MacDonald to fill the void in the backline.
CJ has been ruled out on the injury report?That is the plan. Hopeful about Ryan. Dimma would be very hard to replace, but I am told a replacement is on the list.

I think you will see more of Connor McDonald in the midfield. CJ will come in this week for Day.
Not what I am told, but let’s see.CJ has been ruled out on the injury report?
He wishes he could be the new Capper!The new capper
Confirmation bias.How many times a year does something like this come out and the player end up traded.
That statement may have been correct two years ago. Unfortunately I don't think it is anymore. The game has sped up dramatically since 2022.Confirmation bias.
How many players are linked to trade and don't get traded? OFC every club is inquiring about Lewis, despite what ******* posters on this site believe Lewis is one of the best KP in the league if he gets his body right.
Hawks list of honest goers runa deep but they're fit and working as a team and that makes a difference.
Fit, career years, at maximum momentum with a pretty blessed run of injuries.
Get that F1 West Coast, I beg.
He averaged 2.5 goals a game last year coming off no preseasonThat statement may have been correct two years ago. Unfortunately I don't think it is anymore. The game has sped up dramatically since 2022.
“Tom hasn’t been able to train for a couple of weeks with his back,” Eagles high performance manager Matt Inness said.
“Because he hasn’t trained for two-to-three weeks he hasn’t done enough to play this week.”
to me this is just further proof he's getting traded“Tom hasn’t been able to train for a couple of weeks with his back,” Eagles high performance manager Matt Inness said.

Hawks are not interested. If some one else wants to touch base with Lewis and persuade him, then what you say could happen.How many times a year does something like this come out and the player end up traded.
That has nothing to do with what you quoted, I said if he can get his body right he's one of the best in the league and you proceeded taking about how he can no longer compete, despite dominating last year.He played 15 games. He’s never played more than 15 games in 7 years.

You gotta love the empty headiness of people posting.Here's a good laugh, WCE board on the cost of the Barrass trade
We already knew he’s getting traded, reoccurring back issues ain’t a great sign though.to me this is just further proof he's getting traded
Or just another thing to take in to consideration
