Excuse my intrusion fellas. I've been trying to find out how many/if any players requested trades from hawthorn during your premierships?
Everyone knows about Hawthorns great 'culture' and how the playing group buys in, but I'd like to know what that looks like in pure numbers/names. And I'm not talking fringe/VFL players, but actual premiership players(Suckling is not included).

Reason being, already after our flag Hamling and Adams have both requested trades home to WA, and now rumours are circling that JJ is also thinking of heading back to WA. Many are trying to dismiss this as business as usual, so that's why I've been trying to find out how you guys went about premiership retention. Cheers.

Edit: I don't mean the last few years either, with Hill etc. I meant around your first flag/flags.

Kennedy and McGlynn early.

Then later, Murphy, Renouf, Brown, Lowden, Cheney, Franklin, Ellis, Anderson, Suckling, Hill, Lewis and Mitchell.

Difficult to identify who requested a trade versus was convinced it was best for their future.

In this era, I believe Franklin is the only Hawk to have played in a premiership in the same year he departed and then missed a Hawthorn flag the following year. Suckling is in a similar situation with the difference being he missed a flag with your club the following year.

Neither JPK or McGlynn played in your 2008 premiership though right? I was looking more for premiership players. Do you know who(if any) from the 2008 premiership squad requested a trade the next year? Cheers.
None
Of the Premiership players, the first to get traded out was Mark Williams, to Essendon, at the end of the 2009 season
It helped us get Burgoyne
Campbell Brown left for Gold Coast 2 years later
