Players who looked like they'd become stars but who didn't reach them heights.

Gary Ablett Sr. Could have been a superstar for us.


Then could have taken his son.

Still reckon he did OK.

wasn't Lawrence a die hard catholic ? studying and going to be a helper in that church or something along those lines.

i dont think footy was his priority as he got older.

Biggest disappointment to me was Tim Allen the chf we got from the Saints, did frigging nothing and went to Cats and did much the same. didnt move down here just came over on the ferry to train.

Grow our own please Hawks through the draft, stop looking for quick fixes.

Kevin Ablett springs to mind. Looked a promising player but did not like the city life.

He is probably remebered for ripping off Bruce Doull's headband in a night game at Waverley.

You forgot it was against us, not Carlton. It was the first ever final at Docklands in 2000.

I remember because that was the goal that buried us

thats what we do

Tim Allen
Tim Hargreaves
Andrew Demetriou

Andrew Demetriou

He's reached such off-field heights that he could quietly 'revise' his on-field history. Retrospective Brownlows, AA captaincy, a Norm Smith ot two.

If that was the case, we would still have Mad Dog, and another first round selection in the draft this year.
