Yes. If we got two picks plus a handy player for Petracca I would look at going for Houston. But that’s just my two cents worth. But if Petracca stays I won’t be surprised if we trade someone else to rejuvenate the list.

Yep sorry was pointing out that we could possibly be in the same position again next year. Yeah all good I get and understand why people are keen to get Houston he is a very good player. I would rather us focus on some more top end talent in the draft but if a player was to leave freeing up more picks I would be more open to trying to get him.

What if it ends up being a top 5 pick for Houston?

They sure do and it’s exactly what we did in 21, not saying the Hawks will win it but it’s a massive step in the right direction. Boy it would be nice if we could rediscover that buy in over the summer.

A very disappointing way to end a shocking season. Lots to work on in the offseason. I think we have improvement in this list but I am far from confident that we just get straight back into finals next year. List management this offseason just has to be excellent to help get us back on the right track.

Adam is getting to much thanks.

Very disappointing half of football. I really hope we bring some pressure in the second half.

That’s we got, she has been great for us.

Does he have a puppy? We just got one and they are the best, they love cuddles.

I agree with pretty much all of this. I think our tall forwards are actually developing ok and will hopefully be a fair bit better next year. I personally would rather see a quality mid come in but as you say another X factor forward would be fantastic too.

Surely there is plenty of clubs from Victoria who would want him and could get the deal done. Most Melbourne based clubs aren’t far off finals and with good drafting and recruiting would fancy themselves for finals next year.

This was my exact reaction and hope when I first saw the thread title. Unfortunately not the case. Incredibly sad, life can be so cruel and unfair. Condolences to his family and friends.

Yes it’s a shocking idea, but the AFL don’t care it’s all about money.

The only chance Hunter has of playing is if everyone else is sick. I have said it before and I will say it again if the club had their time over they would have never gone near Hunter. It’s been a shocking list management decision.

Yes true. I should have said not sure we need him signed up for three more years. I will be fascinated to see how long May’s next contract is.

I love Max and I love the fact he has committed to the club, he will go down as one of the modern greats of our club. I feel a little uneasy about posting this next bit but I think Tim Lamb has been over generous with the length of the contract just like with Ed. Is Max really not going to sign a two year contract? Anyway just my humble opinion.

I think West Coast need to handball it more , particularly to players under more pressure. Regretting changing my tip just before the game.

Much better quarter by Richmond.

How long is Yze’s contract?

Brisbane off to a great start. Hopefully it continues.

I don’t give a toss how bad GC have been this is an excellent win and probably the most enjoyable win of the year for me.

Yeah we’re making some mistakes but I am actually really enjoying how we are playing today. Max and JV have been fantastic, Turner and Petty pretty good and I think Howes has also been pretty good.

After the first ten minutes I think our effort has been pretty good. Hope they can keep it up.

Is he going to be on Demonland?

Is there something wrong with this?
