I think there is a huge chance (if the HAWKS DEAL) we could offer pick 18 and Jamar for Burgoyne!!

wouldnt be a bad result would it?

fair midfield inclusions

Scully

Trengove (I hope)

Burgoyne

and a KPP - Black,Butcher etc for pick 11

They obviously want Burgoyne. Hawks supporters should remember they got Gibson. If they get Burgoyne I think it's pretty good for them, given at where they are at.

Hawks supporters are just emotional.

They won't pick up much in the draft that's all.

Not sure its just emotional hawks supporters. The deal stinks. As it has been said this deal would be a win for port. Hawks got lucky picking up dew but this might end up leaving egg all over there faces.

I would rather chase Campbell Brown if he cracks it at Hawthorn-you never know....

Still can't help but wonder about this. Sure the Hawks are trading like there's no tomorrow, but still hard to believe they'd seriously offer Brown.

Of all the Hawks' players that they'd realistically offer for trade (i.e. excluding Buddy, Rioli etc), the one that's going to cause the most hullaballoo among their supporters is Brown.

Perhaps they're just putting pressure on Port to settle for McGlynn (their first choice to trade for Burgoyne) by demonstrating that Port can't realistically expect them to offer a core player, even their least-skilled core player. They're prepared to offer pick 9 + fringe player, but not pick 9 + core player.

If they're seriously offering Brown, it's going to cause a palace coup among ttheir supporters.

Internet rumour:

TRADE NEWS: Burgoyne to Hawthorn. Picks 9 and 16 to Port Adelaide. Mark Williams and Pick 24 (from Port) to Essendon.

Wasn't M.Williams a Premiership player ? Thought Jeff said no Premiership players ..

Port having picks 8 and 9 may help us, as they'll likely go for 2 mids or 1 mid and a KPP. Therefore one more KPP may be available for us come pick 11.

We need clubs between picks 3 and 10 to take as many mids as possible in order to give us more KPP options at pick 11.

Story doing the rounds on Adelaide radio that Port now have picks 8 (original), 9 (Hawthorn) and 10 (Essendon)......

If this is true, they have come out massive winners in this Burgoyne trade!!!!

Got it on fairly good authority that they are keen on Panos (Norwood)

But until it is confirmed somewhere, I am not sure that the pick 10 part is right..... I hope they don't have it.....

Port are really on the nose, they will have Trouble enticing anyone to that Rabble at this point in time.

And is Mark Williams (Port coach, not Hawks player) really overseas at the moment (reported in the paper)?

What the hell, how can a coach be away from the club during trade week? Shouldn't he be approving deals?

:huh::wacko:

How would they end up with pick 10 from essendon? It would mean hawthorn gave a player to essendon in exchange for pick 10 and then moved that pick on to port along with 9 for SB. I thought mark williams was on the table and he is not worth pick 10

I know.... I think they are getting a bit confused myself.... I think it should be Picks 9 (Hawks) and 16 (Ess via. St Kilda trade for lovett)

They are adamant that the paperwork is being signed at the moment for Port to gain picks 9 and 10, Hawks get SB and Essendon get MW.....

Not sure who to believe.... Surely Hawthorn don't want SB that badly..... Holy [censored].... If Port get picks 9 AND 10 for him, they are clear winners in the deal

wow.. so if they get all of those picks.. hopefully that means they pick all the local boys and we can get Butcher with pick 11 B)

I have a strong feeling (whisper) that if they are still available, Port will grab Tapscott and Panos....

If they get a third pick at Number 10 (surely unlikely) then I am not sure who they will take....

Will be interesting...

5aa radio interviewing Peter Rohde as I type.....

Re: Burgoyne trade

They are in the middle of mediation.... Peter is bound by confidentiality until finished.... Basic scenario is that Port will get 9 and 16..... The deal is apparently done.... But in a shock.... It involves FOUR clubs!

That is all he could say.... So Port will have Picks 8,9 and 16.... Could not elaborate on it anymore as they were in the middle of signing paperwork.....

Interesting!!!

Sydney would the 4th club. They've been sniffing around McGlynn and Kennedy.

SEN and Adelaide Radio have confirmed a Three Way Trade

Simply broken down

Hawthorn - Receive - Shaun Burgoyne

Port Adelaide - Receive - Pick 9,16 and Jay Nash (Essendon)

Essendon - Receive - Mark Williams (Hawthorn), Pick 24

Picks to be distributed tomorrow TBC - Pick 24, 40 and 61

From what I can see Port are the massive winners here..Burgoyne has yielded 2 great Draft Picks...And a young speedy youngster who is an SA boy..

Hawks have got a near 27 year old who has been sub par in the past 2 seasons..and now have no first round draft picks..And clearly would have hurt a loyal servant in Campbell Brown..

Essendon have effectively traded Lovett for Mark Williams...

oh and Jeff Kennett has made a fool of himself saying that Hawks would not trade any premiership players..

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
