I just thought the Frawley link was to obvious and had been mentioned before. 

Impey and Wingard have “improved” out of sight as players as well. Win some, you lose some, the Hawks player development is the big difference compared to the Dees.

Wingard has improved??? What games have you watched

[Ethan Tremblay 31,363]

When Wingard’s current contract expires I can’t see him being offered another one.

Clarko got the best out of Tyrone Vickory.

Wingard won’t get another contract once his current one is up. 

The Hawks give these players 2 years. Some stick around, the others are let go. But they are always looking. 

After yesterday Hardwick will do similar, one spot on the list is all you need.

That's a low bar to set!

It's the Hawks system that is what's so good. 

Their development is overrated.

Sure, they developed Hodge, Franklin, Roughead, Mitchell and Lewis, but IMO that's more about system.

And all the FAs and trades they've brought in for quite some time have been role players who have fitted into a system.

They don't have enough guns now, so their system doesn't stand up like it once did.

Surely... surely you aren't serious.

We do need an irony font.

But seriously, why would a person leaving be placed in such a representative position.

i reckon it could be an indicator that he stays.

Personally I don't care that much. The whole squad needs a real change of attitude  and approach. None of them should be looking at wage increases until they win a flag. I don't know how popular most of our players would be to any other club they have proven nothing. Every one has potential but few have shown it consistently.

Clarkson ain’t Stupid. 

The Jury is still out at Melbourne 

Clarkson may not be stupid but he does make mistakes. Frosty would make a great forward in rugger, with his build and speed.

Pros

He is tall, super quick and durable.

Cons

His marking, kicking and positioning are inconsistent. He has yet to show that he can play as a genuine key defender.

How much of salary cap do we pay?

I heard announced on SEN Langdon and Tomlinson IN and Frost OUT.  Is this not the case?

I don't think that's been officially confirmed, but it looks as though this will be the likely outcome when all is said and done.

So between rounds 1-8 in the Best and Fairest count Frost isn't even in the top 10. Bloke by the name of Marty Hore is currently sitting 7th.

Primw example of what the coaches think of him. I'd rather keep him if we could, but he's no big loss if he leaves.

Frosty's middle name/s is/are "dances to the beat of his own drum".

You missed the air quotes around “”improved””... as in he hasn’t. Hello McFly!!

For a club that has been very strong, Hawthorn definitely have a weird history of taking on Melbourne NQRs in this century. Paul Johnson is another and they nearly gave us Brad Sewell for Ryan Ferguson. Their interest in Frost is probably a good sign!

[buck_nekkid 6,092]

Just reported on 7 he has requested a trade to Dorkthorn

[Earl Hood 6,163]

 Not happy! Whatever we get won’t be worth what we are giving up unless there is a player swap that hasn’t been talked about so far.

Should we have a look at Dougal Howard from Port as replacement?

Bad news...imho

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Frost to Hawthorn

Langdon to Melbourne

Hawks second rounder to the Dockers.

Done.

[Demons11 7,132]

 Not a big loss.  Easily replaced 

[Colm 2,204]

What’s he worth in terms of a pick coming our way ?

First round pick according to some on here.
