Yeah he would be great for us or pretty much any team. He would be in the handful of untouchables at Carlton though.

No way they offer up TDK.

Yes it was quite enjoyable until Fremantle failed again. Enjoy the finals.

Any chance Justin Longmuir gets the sack if they don’t make finals? I think they have a pretty good list and not making them again will be a massive failure.

Carlton hardly had a free kick and losing, hopefully this continues.

Without wanting to sound to mean hope you lose, possibly after the siren.

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.

I think there is the possibility McKay helps us win a premiership but only if the deal as you say has another first round pick. We then potentially have three maybe four picks inside thirty and load up on midfielders. Not going to help us win next year but I don’t think our list will challenge next year anyway. I think our list is better placed to challenge from 26 onwards and should look at what clubs will offer us for Tracc.

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.

I will grant him permission to have my old username. It’s not a great one probably about as bad as Adam the God.

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

Vegas?

Another vote for mentally unhinged.

I don’t read books but I think I will start once these players and coaches release autobiography’s. Strange times. I have very mixed feelings about this situation. Part of me wants to see him stay and play out his career with us and part of me wants to us get as much as possible for him and have players that actually want to play for the club.

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.
