Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

Just got off the phone from the Hawthorn receptionist. There has been a barrage of calls supporting Browny and the line from the HFC is that this is all just a rumour.

I hope it is true.

It's times like this I feel terrible for the receptionist!

Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

I guess you now know how we feel about losing Burgoyne. Doesn't feel good does it?

You may feel like you're getting reamed from this deal, but believe me, Burgoyne is quality

I still view this as a big win for Hawthorn, but I'm happy my club is getting a fair deal.


To put this as nicely as possible. You are a ****ing clown. Burgoyne is leaving, we're pushing Brown out the door. Completely ****ing different. He's bolted from your rabble of a club, and was happy to go elsewhere. Brown doesn't want to go elsewhere, but we're forcing him to, so please, don't compare the two, because they are nothing.. NOTHING! alike.

We feel like we're getting reamed? If we trade 9+Brown for Burgoyne alone, we ARE getting reamed. No amount of spin you put on it changes this. It's a royal reaming and Clarko must be lubing up as we speak.

A big win for Hawthorn? Proving you're a ****ing moron.


I'm pissed off. I know no one player is bigger then the club, but **** me dead, the passion Brown displays while playing for Hawthorn is second to none. I hope Brown turns around and tell Clarkson tells to go get ****ed.. Pelchin too. Other factors aside, of course, if this deal goes through.. that last remaining stand at Waverly will be torn down by supporters.

Pitchfork at the ready. :(:(:(:(:(:(
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

In last years Grand Final do people remember Brown setting up two goals plus kicking one on his own.

Having another one taken off him by McLaren the scum cheat calling the kick back.

Backing into packs at the awe of us all in the last quarter.

When the heat was on in the kitchen Browny was there leading the way like he always does.
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

Pelchen said on Monday that it isn't Hawthorn's policy to put up names for trade. He said that clubs ask about players and then they go from there.

Obviously we have been requested to offload Brown by Port, and we can then deal based on that. We can set the deal up and let the clubs work on getting Brown to agree later on.

I hope Brown agrees to disagree and sticks the contract out, proceeding to send Burgoyne to the National Draft and we get to keep both players for only Pick 9.

Firstly I can see that most hawks supporters would be hating this, it would be similar to Port putting Michael Wilson on the trade table when he was playing, so you have my sympathy.

Pride is hard to let go and Brown would have bucket loads of it, if the Hawthorn dont want him, I can see him giving the club the F.U and going where he is wanted.
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

I ****ing hate Burgoyne and if we lose Brown I'll stop watching them play. This is the stupidest trade suggestion I have ever heard.

Why would you offer the toughest player at the club for an injury prone running marshmallow.

I would rather lose Birchall every day of the week than Brown.

I HATE trade week, the hawks should just pack there shit and go on holiday for the rest of the week, Gibson will do.

I hope he calls the bluff and stays here. Don't see that happening.

I still hold hope that this is an elaborate way to get Burgoyne through the National Draft.
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

Dowler and McGlynn are better than Brown?
All-Australian Brown? Proven performer Brown? 10th in the B+F Brown? :rolleyes:


I will clarify.

From Hawthorn's point of view looking to the future, McGlynn and Dowler both are younger and have far more upside than Brown. If you put all three up for trade right now, McGlynn and Dowler would attract better offers than Brown. In the long run, losing Brown will not hurt us as much as losing one of the other two.
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

it doesnt seem it now but the hawks will see this as a win when shaun cuts us apart in a hawthorn jumber cambell brown wont be able to stop him..its a fair trade..hawks are still slightly ahead on it.


Ploppy f#ck off and learn to spell, then take your opinions elsewhere.

The first sentence is laughable. CB is tough, no doubt at all but make no mistake and be very clear on this; Luke Hodge is the toughest player at Hawthorn.

The second senetence is the single dumbest comment ever made on BigFooty.
 
Re: official: pick 9 & Brown for burgoyne

How about we actually read the article....

The AFL.com story is not based on facts. It is based on "according to reports in the Adelaide Advertiser"
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

so Brown would rather be at a club that doesnt want him?

Many want him. After the amount of faith shown to others this year, I don't hold complete faith in those pulling the strings here.
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

I just called the club, and without being able to say much, according to "Claire" from reception she said that its "untrue" and it is "pure speculation"; the whole Campbell Brown situation.
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

Guys can i have Kennett's email address. Haven't been able to work all morning feel sick.
 
Re: Pick 9 + Campbell Brown for Burgoyne??

No surprise that Port accepted the deal right away, it's one of the biggest trade rip-offs of all time. Unfortunately Clarkson and Pelchen's man-love for Burgoyne from their Port days has massively clouded their judgement here. Practically everyone agrees that he's only worth Pick 9 and fringe player. Port are being complete twats and we've bent over and said "insert here" for them and let them have their way.

It doesn't matter that it's Campbell Brown, this is a shit trade and Pelchen has have his position looked at if this trade goes ahead.

That doesn't fill me with much confidence.
