You forgot possibly the best two, the only two really of much value from the Druggies (Gary Moorcraft and Michael Heffernan didn’t set the world on fire,  

Michael Hibberd

Jake Melksham 

Also Jeff Farmer did ok !

 

4 of our current best 26 Hibberd, Melksham, Lewis, Vince is pretty decent pickings. And Pedo, though not currently in those ranks, has turned out to be a dedicated hard working and reliable back up.

The last two ex-Hawthorn players we've recruited (who played a senior game):

David Flintoff - 1988 via Central Districts

[nobody for an unusually long time]

Jordan Lewis - 2017

Despite near miss involving half the squad at the end of 1996, no player crossed directly between the clubs and played a senior game between Roger Ellingworth in 1986 and Cameron Bruce in 2011.

Also I'd like to request a mention of Ross Funcke.

This guy deserves a solo post

Tom Gilles

2 games for MFC. A 79 point loss followed by a 148 point loss.

If he doesn't have the worst % in club history I'm not sure I wanna know who does

Frosty has been missed in the lists above

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
