He certainly has a little crush on Frost. 

And a solid hatred of MFC.

What would the Hawks give us?

Hawks have Pick 11,30,50,87.

Pick 30 is about right I think , 50 is Unders of the back of his 2019.

This is where Mahoney and co need to be smarter when discussing our own players during trade week. Talk them up even if you don't rate them helps drive up the price. We suck at this

Hawks have (or will) used 50 for Patton. How TF do they get away with this. 50 for Patton 54 for Scully. Both former no 1 picks. Un-**********Believable.

It's a salary dump by GWS. They have an abundance of young talent and even more to come through their academy.

They didn't need either, so the Hawks take on their salaries and get to give up very little in picks.

For what it's worth, Patton is around a B- level of player, if that so I'm not too fussed.

You are either under 14 or insecure.

I truly believe umpires have biases; but to put out there, that professional journo has a 'solid hatred' without foundation is overstepping the mark by a long way.

 

Barrett sticks his neck out, and will get it chopped off if he is proven wrong.  Supporters have to realise that the people that have constantly praised every decision that this football club has made over the past 50 years, might 'love' the MFC; but history has proven that they were mad.

Give me the person that has invariably criticised the club and its decisions for much of the past 50 years, before the fact, and I call him (her) Einstein.

Trade done

Gone. Pick 42, 61, Future 4th and Frost for Pick 50, Future Second Round Pick.

Edited October 11, 20196 yr by AshleyH30

Deal Done

Frost& 42 & 61 future 4th

50 and Future 2nd.

Basically a second round pick for a depth player.

Big win for Mahoney

Edited October 11, 20196 yr by Grimes Times

Big loss for us.

If May and Lever can't get on the park again this year and O. McDonald becomes our main key defender then it will be a disaster.

Done. YES!

values frost as a pick in the lower 30s - about his value

not fussed tbh as if we're any good he shouldn't be in our best 22

All the best Frosty.

I was a big fan.

I have faith in Petty being able to cover lever as the intercept/ second tall - think a lot on here are underrating him :). But yes sad to see him go, hope we have fewer injuries next year.

Hopefully the Hawks finish last to get the maximum value out of the future 2nd round pick.

Great result for culture.
If only you knew.

Very disappointing on both a rational and emotional level.

A failure of the coach and footy department.

So many reasons he should have been retained.  

Thank you Frosty, whishing you all the best for the future?

I know not everyone is into the points like me, but with rough estimates of future picks etc this works out to us giving up Frost for pick 50.

 

Anyone got the points value of the trade? Future 2nd is obviously speculative, however I see Hawks being around that 6-10 mark next year

Think we got shafted again. Frost was improving as the year went on and we lose more leg speed.

This will give me great comfort when O. McDonald has five goals on him at half time on Ben Brown and May and Lever are sitting on the sidelines.

 

Future second for Langdon hopefully.

Just now, whatwhatsaywhat said:

Wasn't asking for that much from what I heard.

And that's cancelled out by Langdon anyway.
