Sounds like a few more Dogs players are disgruntled now after what has transpired today.
Who could we target ??
Wouldn't mind Dalhaus....

One thing that I noticed in this... Jaksch has a good turn of speed really
Doesn't fit our list management strategy....
Hasn't turned 19 yet and we want 20 to 24 year olds....
Unrealistic but we will never know unless we ask I suppose....
Elite kick for a big man too.

jones doesn't have the tank to play chf we've been told, you'd imagine lachie will be doing a lot of lead up work this year. or casboult. forward line sounds full, but includes unknowns like watson and jones.
sam michael as a rookie ruck, has also had a bit of success as a 199cm key defender.
o'rourke is the project midfielder a team like hawthorn can afford to leave on their list while they grow and overcome injuries, a bit like anderson. still too skinny. we'd expect and need more out of him straight away. could see an eventual geelong-type scenario though, once the old hawk brigade starts to move on, it's discovered the kids are merely solid rather than champions.

Its got nothing to do with cap the Mclean decision.
It is purely spots on the list, IE if we bring in 4 draft picks, Jaksch, Jones, Whiley and whoever else stays (robbo and lucas) then there are no more spots left for Brock.
It has nothing to do with salary cap...
Wish these coaches would stop ruining the trade period by throwing themselves under the bus.
McCartney for development coach?
Player welfare manager?
Yes, that was my understanding.

O'Roukes key description states he is an elite kick, what is the Hawks main strength- their pin point passing
Yep, the preference is to fill a spot on the list with a younger prospect for the future which will cost nowhere near as much as McLean or Lucas.
The younger cheaper players that come in will be also be a better fit for our game style and the requirements/trends of the game going forward.
Sounds like he is a straight shooter, just what we need.

Thats the big killer... O'Rourke is a high draft pick while Whiley is a zone pick that never went into the draft. O'Rourke was in all the phantom drafts and Whiley missed out because he never went into the draft.But it's so much easier to follow the group think and just assume Whiley is no good because you don't know who he is
People are just seeing the names flashed all over the papers and think that's the standard people have to adhere to. If they dont have their names in the paper, they must be shit.
People are such lemmings at times.

He might go as an assistant with Thompson to the Gold Coast.
They seemed to work pretty well at Geelong.
Yep! And jack Watts was ranked No 1 pick once too!
I reckon Bomber is just waiting to see a few land at the Suns over the trade period before committing.
Wouldn't be surprised if he was the one who put the idea in Christensen's head to go there.
Macca would be a good fit for the young GC players to help with their development also.

Certainly made McLean look slow.....
Seriously though, spoils well, has a thumping kicking and displays an attacking side to his game with his preparedness to run off half back.
Can see him swinging ends with Henderson when required.
