Not sure if you said Josh Free was definitely coming to Tigerland, but thanks for the input anyway. How confident are you that this is in fact the case?
If Hardwick wants him, all for it. Surely he can play a bit.

Very unlucky to have pick 6 this year!!
He did it in 20 games, so your point is pretty null.

When the Hawks drafted him we heard he's the next Pavlich and he'll be a superstar. They kept on telling us they have amazing depth and it's kids like Thorp who'll make them unbeatable.
Funny how a few years down the track and he's gone without a whimper.
I thought Pelchen was a drafting genuis?
Scott Gumbleton? honestly, you walked right into that one.

We're happy to swap pick 17 with you.
One day, and that day may never come, you may be called upon to perform a service.
Until that day, consider this a gift from Don Costa.
So much Kepler bashing on here. I think he was a great pick up..............
for the dockers at pick 69 in the 2007 draft.

Notice the AFL didn't give pick 6 to the GC or West Sydney? Just another example of them getting looked after - wait till Eddie gets wind of this
it isnt ideal to have a person at your club who pisses everyone off.
There is this myth that Lance Franklin is that sort of character, however, off field he is one of the most quiet and modest people you will meet.
Hawthorn has always had the belief that no individual is bigger then the team (even with crawford)
Thorp is the next Gary Ablett sr (assuming he gets picked up). All the talent in the world, but a f*** of a character
Have you ever met Gary Ablett Sr.?
You're an idiot. The bloke struggles to get a kick in the VFL. He's shown nothing since leaving Tasmania as an 18 year old.
He's the next Billy Morrison. That's right, who? (Collingwood fans will fill in on the last dominant Tassie junior)
Gumby is still on our list and is over the injuries. The coaching staff have huge faith in him. The kid has heart.
Thorp is goneski and like Dermie said he lacks mongrel and ticker.

Exactly, Gaz snr was a great bloke and very humble. Doesn't sound anything like this kid
Does anyone have any actual stories on what he has done to be so hated by Hawthorn?
That can't be it, they just traded for Josh Gibson
Has shown nothing since being at the Club, spewing we couldnt get a trade done i hope if he is picked he shows more than what he showed at the Hawks........
Trent Croad is worth persisting with he is an All Australian...
Hmm, just saying "even with Crawford" isn't really an argument winner is it? Makes me think of Brereton and his presentation and behaviour while in yellow and brown. I certainly can't think of another club that chartered a helicopter to fly their star full forward to a game.
And your last paragraph is wrong in so many ways, one of which is the self-contradiction of suggesting being a quiet guy off the ground proves Buddy is a good bloke - they don't get much quieter than G Ablett Snr.
