And Kemp? Since this is the Kemp thread. ?

Does he make a good choice for us then? I don't know much about Green, but they naturally compare him to a current footballer, being Cripps. If he's as half as good, he and Clarry would be a very good duo, with Kemp in there for x factor and goals. I don't mind it. And no, Osilik, I'm not asking you. Yes, inside mids, blah, blah, blah. Someone with an open mind, please.

What I meant was that could we conceivably land Green and Kemp or is it merely a pipedream.

Is there any chance that GWS don't match a big for Green and we end up with Green and Kemp?

It could just be that we think the top 10 this year are better than the 15-20 range next year. Given we're backing ourselves to climb the ladder next year, we would hope we'd be looking at a top 8 finish next year, therefore 15-20. Once you take into our account the alleged compromised nature of the 2020 draft, it makes enough sense.

I assumed his appointment means that the Jennings role has been made redundant in the FD shake up.

Yeah, wonder if the Hawks will give him another 8 years for things to "finally click". Laughable. If it hasn't clicked by now, it won't.

You could be right but I concur with the idea that it's quite possible Kemp won't be there at our next pick. I'd prefer Kemp over Young, but it'll be interesting to see what we do with pick 3.

Tom Scully's hands looked elite at junior level. Not so at AFL level. Young's kicking appears to be as strong as Gould's. Both consistently hit targets, but both for the most part, kick relatively safely. I'm not 100% on Young being an elite kick at AFL level.

Not to digress too much further, but I always thought Stuie and Rangey were one and the same? FWIW, I never minded either of them.

It's very 2004 Hawks drafting too. Let's hope we really smash this draft.

That was how many years ago now? FCS, some new material, please.

Crouch?

Ah, you changed the wording, but not the content. Congratulations.

Yep, fair enough.

It's funny. He doesn't actually have a highlight until a minute in. Some pretty ordinary highlights. I don't get it.

Paying for salaries like Brukner and Burgess may point to why we said little about GCS getting the PP.

Still pretty quick though. He'd shed those kgs in a pro environment and add more pace to his game. Goody likes South Aussies too, so Gould and Stephens could be in the frame. I wonder if the review took away some of his list management oversight.

Fair enough mate. Pity we don't have 3 top 10 picks and we could nab all of them.

Kemp may well be gone by 8, whereas Gould should be there by 8, so this should dictate our drafting strategy. I hope this is the thinking anyway. ? Alternatively, @Fifty-5 proposed trading 8 for 10 and an early second rounder. We could still probably get Gould with 10 and maybe a Weightman at the start of the second round. Kemp, Gould and Weightman all address needs. I like it.

I certainly read our interest as merely due diligence on a small forward who could help us in the right situation. We've never been super keen.

Don't mind it but I want Kemp. So whatever we get in there that gets us him, would work for me.

Haha and I thought my dreams were boring.

On point.

Gee, Osilik doesn't rate Weightman. Maybe I should get on the Weightman train.
