Recommitted Conor Nash [signs 5 year deal]

[The Nostradamus]

The 198cm 25 year old Irish midfielder is out of contract after a career best year finishing 3rd in the bnf

Now he will be able to maximise his contract, hawks should have plenty to offer but one to track as he is a free agent

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Best Irishman in the comp, arguably. Won't be going anywhere.

I think he likely stays aswell but picture if someone offering band 1 money that could be a win win to let go

Although he’d have to improve again to get that sort of money offers especially with band 1 increasing

We're not in the business of collecting first round picks.

You mean like when you got roughy, lewis and buddy in the one draft with first rounders?

What I will say though is “Past performance not a predictor for future performance”

We will not get rid of a future Norm Smith medals + premiership winner

I mean like a certain other club who'd rather get worse by pushing a player out to get a top pick.

Think you are in the wrong thread

You got rid of Isaac Smith

You got rid of Isaac Smith

He wanted to go, we wanted him to stay!

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

You got rid of Isaac Smith

We certainly did not. We offered him a contract, just like we did Gunston. They both left to try their hand at another flag.

A very good player who offers a real point of difference in the middle. Will he take ruck minutes to allow another midfielder in the 22?

Unlikely. Only ever did that when we had Reeves and McEvoy injured.

I don’t mind that

Would then mean they don’t have to play a second ruck

 

[lizard man]

is this the year he becomes an all Australian? He’s in his peak now so I think so

 

[HairyO]

Unlikely. Only ever did that when we had Reeves and McEvoy injured.

He is probably ahead of Meek purely on ruck potential...

Watching reeves get beat by a 36 year old Goldy surely meek would do better

But back on Nash was ok yesterday 19 touches 5 tackles

 

[marcus1232]

Knows how to find it and is as tough as a 2 dollar steak but my lord he is a butcher with ball in hand.
Has a place for teams needing a tough mid

 

[Vindicater]

Will look better once Day is back I think.

Either way I can't see him leaving Hawthorn as he is valued there and nobody else is giving him the pay rise to make it worth moving.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Big game yesterday 32 touches and 8 tackles yesterday

One of the coaches faves.
He owes Sam for turning him from a pretty clueless forward pocket to an inside mid.

It was only North though. Played only 2 decent games out of 6 so far
