Yeah true, but they're so far in the other direction they're in the take what you can get camp when it comes to experienced players, which also works for a player in Hartlett's position if he wants to keep playing.

Good luck to him. If he stays here he's probably looking at a 1 year contract on minimal cash with a good chance of playing most of his footy in the SANFL. If he goes to the SUNS he's probably looking at a multi year contract on decent cash with a good chance of playing most of his footy in the AFL. It's a no brainer.

Didn't he just have a knee op? Unlikely to get the chance to press his case for a new contract on the park this year then unfortunately.

What sort of compo would we get for him if his contract is low $'s?
Future 2nd - or this year's 3rd?

Exactly. What a dickhead. His BnF bs was the end for him. And he calls himself a Port man. As if.

the quicker we get rid of this vanilla residue the better, such a disappointing career from being the next big hope in the midfield to a guy plodding around the back pocket where he ultimately cost us a grand final, its hard to find a more disappointing port player considering the talent he had and is the personification of hinkleyism with the way he played out his career.

hamish hartlet and the gold coast were made for each other
Nuthing, uncontracted, if he can swing 2yrs out of gc, good luck to him, wish him well.
Maybe something token if gc want to, but reckon club will just let him walk if he gets a offer.
So if we dont offer him a contract, will still get a token pick?
Best and Fairest where he alledged that PAFC rigged the outcome.
Dont think we will, hence surprised if we get something.

As long as we don't delist him, Gold Coast offer him a contract and he signs it, we don't have a net gain through free agency (eg signing Kelly or Guthrie) and he qualifies for a FA compensation band (I think it's likely to be a third rounder or nothing).
Brutal but pretty well on the money!

Hartlett certainly had the potential to be an elite player and in the end was not. That's partly on him and partly on his body letting him down. However some parts of this post are ridiculously harsh.
Hartlett was deservedly part of our best back 6 that had a lot to do with why we were minor premiers. He was BOG in the first final but that is always conveniently overlooked.
Lets not forget that if Rockliff had made ANY effort to reach out and touch the ball the call would have been different.
