List Mgmt. Hawk's List Management for 2025

Remove this Banner Ad

Usually do one of these before the trade period but was caught-up with other stuff this year so here is my post-trade period update! This is what I have at the moment. As you can see, firstly the list is STACKED in terms of talent (which we already knew) but is also pretty close to being completely full as it is. If what I have is correct, then we have 36 primary list, 4 Cat A and 1 Cat B locked in for next year which leaves us with limited options in terms of drafting next month and SSP/MSD in 2025.

If I had to guess, I'd say we are likely to delist-then-rookie one or both of Gunston and/or Breust for flexibility. Regardless, we can only intake a max of 2 players to primary/Cat A list at the moment plus the option of another Cat B player if we want (which I suspect we will re-sign Bennetts with).

As usual, if you spot any mistakes then please let me know :)

The Rookie list should be just for rookies, kids like Breust was a speculative pick that could become something, Gunston on the rookie list is wrong the AFL needs to change the criteria.

Clubs may be interested, but older and contracted players usually stay.
Remember Wingard last year? Same situation. Collingwood asked, Chad said he wanted to stay at Hawthorn, so Collingwood left him alone.

The only exception I can think of was Greenwood. Gold Coast delisted him with the intention of re-drafting him. North picked him up but Gold Coast and Greenwood were both happy about that.
That’s not what happened. Collingwood showed interest and so we took him in the PSD rather than the rookie draft, suggesting we were worried pie’s would take him.
