Don't know about Kennedy, but I certainly rate McGlynn. link

    Hawthorn seriously are making some crazy trades this week..... They are offloading some decent talent....

    Hawthorn has a shrinking cap, they call it the "shaun buygoyne syndrome". Hawthorn have to shed salary, this trade is not surprising at all. Move a couple of depth players on to free up some cash and a roster spot for a cheap contracted kid. Good business move form the hawks, better move from the swans who were the short term winners in this deal.

    Salary Cap pressure

    Yes after 2008 "unexpected" Flag the books at the Hawks would have exploded. They would be treading very carefully this week.

    Burgoyne meant a couple had to leave immediately.

    F@#$$@#ck McGlynn is quality. Yeah i was thinking this about hawthorn at the start of the year, all these young stars will want more and more, an there is just no room for them in the salary cap. When you think about how many stars they have... and how much their salary will rise considering that they are pretty young

    Buddy

    Rough-head

    Rioli

    Lewis

    Hodge

    Williams

    Mitchell

    Brown

    Sewell

    I would consider all these players pretty good... and they will all demand more and more money...

    I wonder how many of these players will stay after the next couple of years

    "McGlynn, 24, played the last 16 games of Hawthorn's 2009 campaign to take his career tally to 44, but had informed the club he would take his chances in the national draft or pre-season draft if a deal wasn't struck with the Swans."

    Hmm bit annoying...

    Didn't know that. Unusual. McGlynn is a fair loss for the Hawks in my opinion. Loved the way he played on Didak that night the Hawks pumped the Pies.

    My understanding that Hawks wanted to keep both, but they wanted to leave for opportunity, plus cash no doubt. Surely MFC could've offered a better deal for McGlynn?

    Exactly!

    They are offloading depth! And young talent..

    And as we know, and the Hawks know, with so many injuries, depth is so important...

    People like Kennedy and McGlynn especially saved them to a degree...

    They are going to pay the hawks bigtime...

    Sure Burgoyne is a good player but certainly in 2 seasons hasn't played his best football..

  • Quote

    Yeah that's a steal IMO. Hawks are obviously right at the limit of their salary cap, especially now getting Burgoyne, so they're having to offload some younger talent to hold the core of their side together.

    Swans have done well here.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
