Look, it was still a disaster losing to them, potentially difference between making finals and not. But they’re a decent side actually
How is it a disaster just going down to the form team in the comp in Tassie? It would be as hard a game to win as Sydney at SCG right now
 
Hawks coming good so quick is the perfect example of why a midseason trade period would be the worst possible thing for Non-Victorian teams.

They've brought in the following (not including late pick swaps)
Meek - O'Meara and received a 2nd round pick
Ginnivan - 2nd round pick
Scrimshaw - 3rd round pick
Chol - 2nd round pick
Amon - Free Agent
Frost - 2nd round pick
Gunston - Brandon Ryan and received a 2nd round pick
D'Ambrosio - 3rd/4th round picks
Impey - 2nd/3rd round picks

And if you believe rumours they'll likely pick up Battle as a free agent +/- Bailey Smith via trade this offseason.

I'd hazard a guess that just about 1-2 of the above players would've even considered a trade to a WA team. And about half of them would've been traded mid season should that have been an option.

It's far, far easier to rebuild as a Victorian team.

I know what you are saying but that’s the kind of trading I like , get some cheapies with the right traits / style of play that could help your team and if not it’s not so bad

Late 1st rounder and 900k for Liam ****ing Baker

Not so much
