Restricted free agency contracts can’t be torn up, the AFL put that provision in place when Sydney offered Buddy his enormous long term deal. Every cent of the deal must be paid.
Unless we start drafting some talented youth Nick isn’t playing many more finals in his career.
Don't worry mick, I'm just as worried as you but given a good run with injuries, we could win it again. It feels like the club is prepared to accept a bit of long-term pain for some short term gain.
Richmond should keep him. They need senior players to lead the young fellas and a big bloke to straighten them up (if in doubt kick it long to CHF) - their salary cap shouldn’t be a concern for the next couple of years.
Honestly after 2021 I thought we wouldn’t play finals for a decade. We went prelim, flag. The right system and buy in takes you a long way. Our list has holes everywhere now and we’re still competitive with anyone. We arguably played some of our best footy mid year when we were thread bare thin injury wise and blokes like Richards, Sullivan etc stood tall. Our draftees like Ed, Harry etc need to take the step this year though
They are sure to be mindful of both, and have the requisite intellect and experience to achieve it.
Add in the fact that he will be staring at the next to bottom rung of the ladder for the best part of three year should he stay on the north side on Brunton Ave. You take his contract, the trade would be minimal to nothing, this one has legs.
God I hope so bro but I think we'll be OK
Gotta love the media. This was planned 6 months ago that he would attend the training camp
I remember the post. Mitch Lewis was the player I had in mind. Hawks picking up Barrass and Battle and still apparently looking to fund Perryman. Mitch Lewis who misses the start of next year with an ACL might be seen as obsolete at Hawthorn following the development of Dear? They have a known interest in Gruzewski too who could move to them this trade period.
He’s one hell of a forward when fit. If we get a draft pick for him, biding the time could be well worth it.
I think Lewis will be back by round 6 next year, could still play a big part for us
He's 26 and has played the same number of games as Nick Daicos. Never more than 15 in a year. He'll probably be really good if he ever has a good run at it, but Hawks would want more than you'd be willing to pay. Stringer doesn't train and breaths in hamburgers and he's fitter than him.
Seems to get injured most years. If his body came good and you got him cheap, it could be worth a shot
Maybe helps Dawks with their Barrass trade?
