With Hawthorn pretty far down the line with other forward line trades - could we swoop in?

I would love to see Gunston lining up for goal in the red and blue…

Could pick 41 make it happen or a future 2nd?

he's cooked

I'd be keen, would add a different dimension to the forward line, some hardness and precision and experience, 2 years ala jordan lewis style, not huge money and a late pick, for the right price there's upside there

I don’t know about that BDA, I think he’s just had an interrupted season. He’s also been behind a far better forward line than ours.

How would you feel about Gunston if we lost Petty? It might be Petty and pick 41 for pick 10 and Gunston.

On the flip side, Jack Gunston to the Hawks might leave Mabior Chol out in the wind…

Brisbane have released a statement saying he wants to go back to the Hawks.  Assuming the Hawks want him back and can do a deal to satisfy Brisbane that is.

No, Shut the thread down. 😀

Yeah I'd take him, but if he's specifically requested a trade to Hawthorn, then he'll get to Hawthorn.

5 years ago I would have

We have Fritta. Gunston isn't the key forward we need

Best thing he would bring is smart forward leading patterns which either result in our midfield hitting him or  opening up the forward line.

Turning 32 on Monday so if we get him for nothing on A 1 year deal why not

That Casey forward line is looking rather crowded

Brisbane probably couldn't guarantee Gunstan a game next year in his exit interview.

I didn't think they missed him in the finals, and didn't have a great year overall.

Maybe we should ask the question of Nick Riewoldt too? Wayne Carey? Kernahan?

Maybe Garry Lyon or the Ox want another go?

or Casey medical room

He was going to move back down to Melbourne at the end of his time at Brisbane. He’s just looking to get a free removal. Tight [censored]. 

 

 

 

Is this the bloke that was playing every week for the future grand finalists and decided to take a breather / semi retire mid season with Daniel Rich? 

funny he didn’t get selected for finals. 

what was he thinking?

Is this us next year??

Strange he'd nominate them without having a conversation first about whether they want / have space for him on their list.
