Luko of course, cant trade for him without the pieces to do so.

Honestly I know nothing about Cumming as a player. I don’t watch enough of GWS to have an opinion on him. Should we be disappointed if he chooses Port? Will he make us better?

Yes he will. Excellent off the HBF or wing and fast.
If he stays fit, he offers more than luko would. And he costs us nothing. Not that it matters re luko. He ain’t coming to us anyway.

Trotter actually said Cumming already met with both clubs, but will have a final chat over the next couple of weeks and make the call. Ideally wanted to stay at GWS but it sounds like the contract they offered forced his hand to explore the market. Both he and his partner's families live in Adelaide too.
The Crows are confident he will select them due to reasons already widely talked about (Tex relationship, discussions over 2 years), but like with Dawson he isn't discounting Port just yet (and it would be stupid to at this point, what if the Perryman deal falls over and they can up their offer?).

The key point here is the order of his next talks to Crows and Port.
Hopefully, he goes to Port first and us second. Then we would be favourites.
We need someone camped in front of both clubs in the week after Port get knocked out.

The depressing thing is that Battle and Barrass have both quickly nominated the Hawks and that gets rid of any white noise and supporter doubt. It would have been nice for Cumming to have just done the same thing if we truly have been into him with a big offer, but no, nothing is so easy for us. It would be nice to be the hawks in this regard.

What does it matter? It's just a repeat Dawson.

The best result would be he nominates us about an hour after Port are eliminated from the finals race.
Around 10.30pm Friday ??

That won't happen, either way.
He wants to meet both clubs again.

I mean that for hawthorn, it just falls into place and people climb over themselves to want to play for them, like Battle and Barrass. I would love us to like that and get a guy like Cumming to have just done that early too so we know he is coming (as a supporter base) and then look at what else the club may be doing in the trade period.

Reckon he’s like nick’s coaching, the small spike is the outlier the other 4/5 years are the norm.
I reckon he's better than that, but certainly not the player we hoped he would be. And now we have guys in his roles that are better.
Think we always wanted to get Rankine and Lukosius back.
Dawson and Rankine......
Nobody should be bagging him for this. It's in his best interest he does this. Probably same thing for luko. We'd also do it to if our own services were required by a few companies.

Hopefully we can lock him away, the last thing we need is Port scrambling to try to one up our deal at the last second if Perryman falls through.
To that affect though it's in Cummings interests to wait.

im not worried about that one at allThe key point here is the order of his next talks to Crows and Port.

luko is far more speculative
Cumming is not unlike the Dawson situation, check both clubs out and then make a choice.
With you here, not worried about this one.
All for adding more size and speed to our ball movement also which is why Cumming is (all going well) a good get.
