AFL trades 2015: Hawthorn's Jed Anderson asks to leave

Would love Anderson at the Dees. Need to make sure we land one of he or Kennedy!

For some reason I can see him ending up at Essendon....

Absolutely.

My tip though is he will end up at Carlton or WC..

not sure, just a thought.. I reckon JT is the type that Clarkson can develop within the Hawks structures... he would spend some time at box Hill, but they ground their players very well, always have, since Yabby Jeans days.

What does it take?

This guy is absolutely the guy we should be gunning after. Way too good to be languishing in the VFL.

_{Do what we have to, this kid is an absolute gun!}

_{i'd be shocked if we aren't neck deep in this one.}

Jed who?

Every name that crops up...

'Get him, gun!'

'300 gamer!'

'Get it done, Dees!'

Chill, ffs.

Jed Anderson is in a whole different league to Melksham, Kennedy, Bugg and all those players, if he's on the move and we aren't chasing, he either has some huge issue no one knows about or the recruiters are off sinking pizz under a tree.

10 games in 3 seasons. 4 this year, 0 last year.

If he hasn't been injured, I'm tipping this guy is another Michie/Newton/Riley.

Edit: I see he was injured last year. Still, regarding this year, I believe that if the player is good enough, they can force their way in to sides. Hawthorn used plenty of their VFL players through the year and this guy was clearly a long way down the pecking order. Recent experience has made me very wary of taking players in this position.

Tom Mitchell struggled to crack the Swans midfield for a couple of years there where he was certainly good enough, Anderson was tipped by a lot of people to take out the rising star this year.

Brother, I get your user name and I'm in that space too...

But, for the first time in a decade, I have complete faith in our FD and coaches.

A fringe player from the Hawthorn system looking for more game time pricks my ears but I think we have enough on our plate for now.

I wouldn't be selling the farm for this kid. He's a "cream on the top" type player. And as Nasher said, if you're good enough, you'll get a game. Billy Hartung was rated higher by the Hawks than Anderson, so talk about him being a "gun" is over the top.

The guy is tough and has great speed. I'd be looking at him, would come cheap.

This guy is an immense talent. He just looks a jet. I'm surprised he wasn't able to cement his spot, but he has had injury concerns.

The Hawks generally aren't too bad at the trade table, but I can't see them letting him go too cheaply. He still has another year to run on his contract and I still believe the Hawks see him as part of their future.

He would be a handy pick up but probably not worth it for the price the Hawks might ask for.

The pick we get from trading Howe should do it.

Has Howe been traded yet?

Speed, class, toughness. Get him

I think that has been earmarked already.
