told The Hawks to go forth and multiply

Jake Riccardi stayed at GWS after Hawthorn threw the bag at him

And now



How embarrassing for Hawfs !

Least when we were shit we could still get good players to come to our club !

 

[JoseMourinho]

Sheesh, Liam Henry choosing death rather than going to the Hawks is saying something....

Next stop, Dingley tip site.

 

[FISTO]

I can only hope they go all in for Esava, he and Frosty would make the dream team of key defenders

 

[STPer18]

I kid you not, John Ralph wrote this about Sammy's Hawfs. Convinced they're paying the media for all these puffs pieces after season 2023 actually saw them go objectively BACKWARDS. The media were convinced at stages that all of Bruhn, Henry and the Bowes+7 combo were all heading over to Dingley at one point too last year.

Mitchell’s Henry coup only the start​

Sam Mitchell has emerged as Hawthorn’s secret weapon as a recruiting tool in coming seasons as Liam Henry moves towards nominating the Hawks as his club of choice.

Player managers report Mitchell has put together a brilliant pitch to their players as the Hawks hope their recent improvements put them in the picture for a number of big names.

might ultimately look elsewhere.

But Henry is expected to choose Hawthorn over St Kilda, with the Dockers wingman one of a number of players highly impressed by Mitchell.

His overall vision for the club, his specific intel on how he would coach them and his professionalism in selling the future have all been noted.

As a first-year coach, some rivals scoffed when Mitchell contacted opposition coaches himself as the Hawks tried to make moves to get up the draft board.

Yet, if you can’t get players to your club – even when you are rebuilding – it doesn’t matter how talented you are with the tactical and leadership side of coaching.

Hawthorn won’t want to give up a pick in the 15-25 range the Dockers are asking for, so get set for some prolonged haggling.

It's happened again !

Mind you I don't rate McKay all that highly, but Hawthorn getting rejected again is really getting embarrassing now
