You're nothing like your username sake. He was a front foot sort of guy. You are possibly one of the most negative posters I've come across. Come on, Walt. Dream a bit.

Had a good yarn to Lewis at the Sorrento pub last night, with a mutual friend. Tried not to bother him at too much length about footy but he's EXTREMELY excited about starting with the club and

Lewis was my neighbour until a few years ago.  A top fella, who has an extremely sharp football brain.  Even in our darkest hours, he insisted that I stick fat as he was sure there were good times to

Are you being sarcastic? That is the same BS spin we hear from clubs when a player asks to be traded.

"They are a required player."


"As far as we know they haven't spoken to anyone."

 

"He has not sought a trade to CLUB."

Not saying it's a surety but if you think it's done and dusted based on anything Hawthorn has said, you obviously haven't been following AFL for very long.

Unless Lewis and his management explicitly say, "We are staying at Hawthorn", it's a chance to get done.

The most obvious part of this is the lack of talk from Lewis or his manager, if he wasn't keen on a move he'd simply say that's the case and end the speculation

I'm a Dees fan. I've had optimism stamped out of me over nearly 50 years.

Can I use this for the Demonland Banner. Too soon?

Nah.

Plenty of premature conjecturators around here. It'd just be representative of our wider community!

Seriously though, who DOESN'T look good in our jumper? Best in the league IMO.

Yes, should be a fourth rounder at best. He's only got 2 years left.

But if he 100% wants to leave and the Hawks 100% refuse to deal we might have to pay overs

The Hawks know it would be a terrible look to try that after letting Mitchell leave for peanuts; I doubt they'd turn it into a PR nightmare.

Barrett reporting that Liam Pickering, Lewis' manager, was meeting with us this morning.

Edit - they also say that Lewis is still livid with how everything has gone down and it's line ball where he plays next year.  Could be sensationalism, but still gives credence to the idea we are an outside chance to get him.

Why would Lewis be meeting Melbourne without any discussion with Hawthorns list managers though? He's wanting to be sold on coming again? Not very familiar with trade talk formalities, what would they be negotiating?

Contract terms you'd assume. You wouldn't want to agree to a trade and then find out you're being paid half as much as before.

It was reported that he had agreed to contract terms with Melbourne yesterday or before. The dees had the contract drawn up ready to go before the Hawks decided it was a better view while back flipping down the road.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
