Kyle Cheney

[Alf Stewart 73]

Just watched the NAB cup game. Very poor effort from him. Think we made the right call on him.

[RalphiusMaximus 6,088]

Absolutely. He's tough as nails but has no skills.

Incidentally, Hawks lost to Doggies

Agree - list clogger.

[DeeSpencer 26,082]

Dominates the VFL but lacks a yard above and below the shoulders at Afl

Level and foot skills which the hawks thought they could fix.

Good decision for us to let him go and when you look at Hawthorns defense it's not a horrible pick up from them.

I wonder what the last two years will do to the Hawks' psyche?

[Chook 15,022]

I've always thought he looked like so much like a VFL player that you could spot it from the moon. Credit to him for sticking around at AFL level for so long though.

[Jumping Jack Clennett 1,809]

I thought he played well tonight.

[Moonshadow 17,677]

That's a frightening profile pic, Alf. I know it's half CW and half AA, but it looks terrible. Or is it really you?

[ThreeOneSix 954]

We made the right call on Cheney and Buckley - tough calls, but right calls.

Buckley is serviceable but cannot kick, whilst Collingwood can to play a player in the mould of Buckley - we can't.

Chris Johnson was another interesting one, I reckon he'd look back with regrets about leaving us.

Hopefully Gysberts isn't one we regret.

In the three quarters I watched Cheney was good!

Was it through the bottom of a glass?

The Gys is the only one of the lot we got rid of that i can see coming back and biting us in the a$$. However is Pedders turns out to be a valuable pick up then it will make no difference to me (as long as he doesn't kill us when we play them!).

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,939]

Would Cheney help us rise up the ladder?

I wouldn't of thought so.

[DeeZee 7,445]

He was named in their best

[Satyriconhome 10,879]

Kyle Cheney Kyle Cheney....hmmmm...don't remember him being at Family Day and haven't seen him at training,,,oh that's right he left over 2years ago...sigh

[s-t-i-n-g-a 439]

I liked him for the way he went it but I don't think he offers anything over Dunn or Joel MacDonald.

Out of interest does anyone know who we got for the pick we got for him?

Troy Davis Pick 51

[Jumping Jack Clennett 1,809]

Interesting how the commentators kept pronouncing his name "Chaney".

It's spelt with an "e" and pronounced "Cheeney". I checked with him personally at an MFC function.

Are people mixing the name up with former WA Lib senator, Fred Chaney?

[dee-luded 2,959]

They've got a few too many off field recruits from other battling clubs.

they haven't looked like winning a chook raffle since 2008.

[P-man 13,366]

Or Petterd. Already looking like he can be a big contributor for the Tiges off HB this year.

I thought Cheney was okay, and if he was named in the best he obviously wasn't deplorable.

They also seem unable to grasp that Jack TrenGOVE only has one "r" in his name.

Interesting - as so many have been saying over the years "what if x was at Hawthorn, Collingwood etc.. wouldn't they be a lot better."

Hawks also must have thought that they saw something in him and could fix what we couldn't; maybe it wasn't just 'our poor player development' but rather just him?

[farmerwiz 60]

lets be honest and say he never had the talent to make it, honest tryer

gysberts wont get a game at kangas, last thing they need is another inside mid

[praha 11,240]

Seems to have fitted in nicely in the Hawks' defense. Has been there every time the Dockers have gone deep. Cut off a few low shots at goal.

Hawks fans speak highly of him.

[Little Richard 6,265]

Let's trade for him.
