List Mgmt. Hawk's List Management 2023

[twentythree]

Can't wait for it to be announced.

That's what Buddy said and look how that turned out

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

Listening to Rawlings on that gettable show, sounds like McKay is gooooone.

How does compensation work again, I can’t figure it out.

Better not push our pick back

 

[cryptor]

Would prefer to keep the Worpedo, but if not he should be worth a first rounder now. Young, entering his prime years, proven performer who's right up there in all the metrics for his role/position.

 

[Jet_black]

Breust is already contracted.

I know that but quite a number of BF posters keep calling for him to be traded. Don’t understand why one would shunt out a great servant of the club when he is still performing to a high standard.

Not saying he will go on as long as Silk but there is great value for him at Hawthorn.

 

[hawkinoz]

With Bruest, question is if someone like GWS comes back with a 2 yr + trigger for 3rd offer. Would we match it?

He is contracted so has to be a trade if he wants to leave.

 

[MasterSamurai]

Can we leave breust out of this! The bloke will retire in a couple of years and posters will STİLL bring him up as a trade option.

 

[tl92]

Breust is our most reliable forward and is like a forward line coach on the field. if we were to draft Nick Watson as most suspect, Breusts impact would be enormous on him,

 

[matey]

I’m sure I remember Bruest saying after his last contract he wants to be a one club player so stop the trade/move rubbish and show some respect to a Hawks great!

 

[matey]

Another interesting thing re the Worps SEN interview this evening. They asked him to name one young player that stands out …….. didn’t take long to mention Weddle. He said that when he gets the ball he just wants to run a bit like Frost but with his athleticism, aerial ability, size give him 50 games could be anything …….. D+!

Forget it. It ain’t going to happen. Luke will be a one club player. Full stop.

 

[smish]

Needs a statue.

 

[Dewnior]

Only get two Cat B spots now dewnior so Bennett’s and Ohara are the full allocation.



Worpel and Weddle comments in the Hun last night like we’re sitting on our hands smells like manager induced BS to me

Ok. Any idea how to update Wikipedia?

[Dewnior]

This is Fionn's 3rd & final year as a Cat B so it's either de-listed or a contract offer.

2nd year. Has one remaining.

 

[Brant]

Would prefer to keep the Worpedo, but if not he should be worth a first rounder now. Young, entering his prime years, proven performer who's right up there in all the metrics for his role/position.

Don't reckon we'd get nearly what he's worth to us

 

[eldorado]

Hear hear!

 

[FB19]

Sign bruest into a playing/coaching role. he is a student of forward craft that’s how he’s become so good his teaching would be invaluable. Then once our small forwards are elite, FFS, then we go for a proper trade!

 

[Briar Gold]

Hodge isn't the same, Hawthorn offered a contract to Hodge once he decided to continue playing.

I think you can link Hodge and Gunston leaving to Clarkson's strategy of pushing legends out. It gave people the justification to leave as loyalty was not valued.

Just a terrible way to rejuvenate the list. Let's hope the premiership reunions bring the band and their F/S/D prospects back together.

The Hodge family are entrenched in QLD and this is a massive concern for us.

Cooper is now part of the Lions academy which will give him the option of choosing Hawthorn under FS or the Lions as part of their academy.

Would be very disappointing if we see the Hodge name in the next few years not playing at Hawthorn.

Death, taxes and trade Breust chatter.

 

[kingcobey78]

Is Brockman still wanting to go back to WA? What would the Hawks want for him? Maric from Eagles considering he was a Box Hill Hawk?

 

[Yardie]

I think our list is in a great spot. Yes, our key weaknesses are still the key positions, but do we really need to go out and splash the cash?

What we saw on Saturday against Collingwood was the best forward structure and setup that I have seen us put out in a long while, at least in this decade. Lewis was allowed to thrive at CHF. At CHF, he's able to get up the ground and show his athletic capabilities while being able to track back and win contests up forward.
Ryan was clunking marks for fun. His 200cm stature and long arms make him very hard to stop in an aerial contest. Heck, even Mitchell Lewis couldn't stop him, as Ryan snatched the ball out of the hands of Lewis to kick one of his three goals.
Koschitzke looked much more relieved in a third key forward/pinch hitting ruck role. He was also clunking marks like I've rarely seen him do.
They were also bringing the ball to the ground for our general forwards, who were at their crumbing best on Saturday.
If they can close out the season well as a trio, do we really need to bring in Ben King or Jake Riccardi? Sure, they would fix our issues almost immediately, and I'm a great fan of both of them, but do we need to go out and spend when we could have the answer to our troubles from within?

The question of what to do with our key defensive spot alongside James Blanck is a bit harder. Sam Frost has served us reasonably well, but I think the time has come to move on from him. Jai Serong and Emerson Jeka have performed well at Box Hill as defenders. Sam said DGB will still be a defender. And we have Will McCabe coming in. Much has been made here about potentially bringing in Nick Haynes. I think he would be a good player for a few years.

We need depth in the KPF department. If you bought in King then Ryan would be depth. If you bought in Riccardi then it might be seen a toss up. But either way need another who is ready to play.

Maybe anyone who brings it up gets a day off?

People will probably keep doing this after he retires...

Yeah, but we don't have to worry about that until 2034.

Jesus H man!
