Geelong vs Hawthorn Grand Final ?

It's happening isn't it ?

In 2008 Boston were NBA Champions and the stock market crashed, we had a Cats vs Hawks GF.

Doggies really look like they need a quality, quick small forward.

They should approach the Pies and offer either JUH or Naughton for Bobby Hill.
They won't win anything with 3 key forwards and without a high-quality small.
It never works with 3 quality key forwards. JUH needs to own a forward line. I hope he realises that.

Hill for JUH or Naughton.

Win/Win.

Nothing else.

Get it done.

I reckon they would prefer to offer up Naughton - even though tonight he looked the best of the 3, he is the one that is surplus to requirements.

But I wouldn't give up Bobby - so might be hard to make happen.

JUH would have to ask for a trade for it to have a any chance of it happening.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

I heard this last night. I think you'd have to go back a long time I reckon

If Ginni & Hawks were to do it, I think he'd be the first in consecutive GF/ premierships judging by this :

I am sorry to rain on your parade but it will never happen. Rather, it is about time our recruiting staff select a young key position player & possibly the pick may be a so-called "Diamond in the Rough". I mean young Casher Dear was taken with Pick 56 while we had Picks 25 & 37 (I think). I know that I always bring up the club's recruiting performance but everytime I see a young tall - that was available at our picks - (and that also includes Logan Morris who Brisbane selected in last year's draft) play well, I just wonder where we could be going into the future with some really promising young key forwards. OK. Goodnight & good luck.

Dear is a father son selection?

 

[eddiesmith]

Funny they’ve been talking up this finals series as one of the greatest and closest and yet 2 games in and the prime time finals have been complete one sided flops.

 

[Jafo]

Yes, but went missing in the biggest game this year for the dogs. Imagine the crap N.Daicos would have copped if he had a 12 possesion finals game.

Welcome to Collingwood

We wouldn't have access to Dear given he was a FS selection

 

[Bramax]

He's had 7 score involvements, 3 score assists, he's done his bit.

He was a cancer. Good to be rid of him.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

I'd like to recruit an assistant coach from Hawthorn .. Intel, Intel, Intel.

 

[Fat Jesus]

Biggest w***er ever. Cannot stand the sight of him.

First since Tom Fitzmaurice in 1924 (Essendon) and 1925 (Geelong).

 

[JLC]

Hawks are winning on method not personnel

It's a question of how quickly the rest of the comp can go to work on them

Totally Agree - teams for the most part would have been planning for Brions and us and then Swans. Not many would have been putting proper time into the Hawks.

Dogs have 3 quality talls, yet not one of them sacrificed their own game to drag Sicily away.

 

[greening22]

Dear is a father I

I am not sure if the restrictions applying to Academy players - in they can still be selected by other clubs up to & including pick 40 - also apply to Father-Son picks. I will check that out in regard to young Dear but I do not think that any other club offered to select him in last year's National Draft. However I am pretty sure that Hawthorn did not have to use any points to select him. OK. More to come on this topic. BYE.

Did Bevo persist with playing Bont forward of centre?

 

[Jen2310]

People loved it when he was as show off with us, but not when its on the other foot.
Can't have it both ways lol
He's an entertainer, and we are in the business of entetainment. He is good for footy, we need more with personality like him out there. Watson too.

Ah. I didn't scroll down that far.

He'll have to be happy with 2nd player if he does it

Good trivia question.

 

[Jen2310]

Apparantely its going with Jeremy Cameron's lead, who did something similar.

Not all supporters. Tolerated him then, not so much now.

For JUH sure, I'd be willing to part with Bobby. Or Sam Darcy lol

But Bulldogs wouldn't so there's no deal.

Bobby Hill is a critical player for the Pies. WON the GF by himself pretty much.
