Worth throwing Pick 47 to Hawthorn for this guy and see what we can do with him???

Depth but good depth.

Is he able to play the role we want Gaff for?

he can run and spread, but he can't kick for peanuts

Hartung for pick 47.  Yes.  That’s about right

I see he remains out of contract and potentially out the door at the Hawks.  Would he be a pre-season draft option?  

He fits the right age profile in that he is only 22.

If he gets delisted, he can walk into the club of his choice.

No thanks: a list already clogged with them types...

Might be worth a late pick in the draft considering his outside run and our need for his type.

We could sign him as a DFA couldn’t we..?

Regardless, while he’s no star, he has pace, endurance and can find the footy and whilst his disposal needs some work, he’d be very good depth at worst.

He’s definitely worth a look IMHO.

no no no

 

thought we had stopped recruiting smaller midfielders who butcher the ball

 

the kid can run but he's useless if he can't hit a team mate 

I'm in a mood for speed this draft season.

But...

There's multiple speedy youngsters in this draft at a few different sizes and roles, and with more 'upside' as far as actually having a real impact with that speed.

Surpised Hartung hasn't retired from the neck strains of watching the ball go right back over his head. Though, the soreness would explain why he only manages 4 contested possessions and just over a tackle a game.

A young Isaac Smith, he ain't.

 

Soft and makes horrible decisions. Pass.

Talk about Hartung butchering the ball,Nat does a lot of that,perhaps we can give the Hawks Nat for a 4th rounder.

Trade Week is finished ENYAW. Sail away.

 

He’s soft and he can’t kick. 

I'd only entertain the thought of adding him to the MFC if he applied to be the runner (unless of course Crossy is still our runner)

Keep Crossy as our runner. So its a pass for me.

Poor man's Sam Blease

Sure you haven't got this back-to-front?

He's played an average of 15.75 games per year over four years, the first couple of which were with a Premiership team. I'm agnostic about whether we should add him to our list, but I think it might be fairer to suggest Sam Blease is a poor man's Billy Hartung. 

I think T Viney and/or Taylor should talk to Jordan Lewis and get his opinion whether to get him as DFA ?

I was joking. He's pretty average though.

I often prefer 2 spaces,  much like after the full stop. 

That way,  it's easier to read those long rambling rants. 

The supersized paragraph is another odd offering - one starts reading the 8th or 9th line then one quickly realises that you've already read it.  Then,  you lose your spot and then give up.

He's still having digs at Nathan Jones, probably another still bitter about golden boy Jack being dumped by the club & taking it out on a bloke who really bleeds for us...... pathetic excuse of a 'supporter', wish we could dump a few them off on port adelaide along with Jack the way they are carrying on.

He's got to be one of the better DFAs out there. I wouldn't say no.

I'm not sure being the best of the worst is setting the bar high enough though Ralph.
