I can think of a couple of reasons not to join the hawks off the top of my head

Their supporters

Their guernsey

I’m sure there are plenty of others

You might perceive their supporters as annoying, but they have 30,000 more than us, so that's a positive as he gets to play infront of bigger crowds and gets more exposure for post career opportunities.

A guernsey is not a factor in what team you choose to play for, so I assume this is a joke.

They're a premiership contender - we're a bottom four contender.

They have newer, better, more accessible training facilities than us.

The only positive we can potentially offer is more money, and even that is an unknown.

I love my club, but there are very few actual reasons to want to play for MFC over most other clubs in 2026 and the near future sadly.

Being realistic is good, well said !

Side conversation - apparently Geelong likely to get Butters.

Was a very strong Dogs fan and many think he is headed to them.

still think this gets done before the deadline

Think there will be multiple Vic clubs after him and Hawthorn would make a lot of sense.
