Hawkins is no where as mobile of the Weid. I don't ever see him being forcefull. What I see is a guy who is just too nice.

According to an article in today's HUN the big year is next year when it goes up and there are performance levels he had to achieve. Reading between the lines Freo want the dollars for others in 2021. Interesting times ahead

I just don't see the mad hunger to kick goals that good KPF shows e.g. I think it was the last game against Essendon he takes the ball 20 metres out from Goal no one behind or in front of him instead of kicking the goal he hand passes to Hunt who runs in and kicks the goal. Every Good KPF I know does not hand off those goals they kick them, they want the goal against their name and believe no one can do it better than me. I just don't see That hunger in the Weid. I just don't see him demanding the ball.

Could well be right QD we have had plenty of experience with that same problem. By those standards we are now run by a team at the level of genius

It arrives next in 2061. Looks about right.

Slippers probably covers it Mr Shadow.

I think he can be a useful no. 2 Bbo but I just don’t see the talent needed to be the no.1 KPF.

Wow that is low!

We have never looked like replacing the 40+ goals he kicked in 2018.

Do we know why North want him gone so badly. Players who regularly kick 40+ goals don't grow on trees.

He hasn't yet. I am not going to get into an argument with you. You have your opinion and I have mine. One of us will be wrong, I hope it is me.

As a number of people have said is about a number 30 on our list. Too inconsistent. He is one of those players that is good at VFL level but not good enough senior level. He has had his chance, go or stay I don't really care either way. If we ever make a GF he won't be in the 22.

Why on earth would you say that !

I think there is a slightly better chance of him returning than there is on me pulling on the boots in 2021.

The Weird will always be a useful no. 2 banana IMO end of the story.

They are very good with there one dimension. The Weird is average with his. However I don't agree they are one dimensional.

I think on this occasion the AFL have the better hand to play. IMO if the union won't budge of salary levels or won't come down enough then the league simply reduces number of players on the list until the total dollars comes out where they want. Tell the union they can X players on y salary cap or x-30% players on y salary cap.

IMo the Weid will always be a no.2 KPF. He is one dimensional.

I think it has the ability to make 7th or 8th Kent but that is it. Very difficult to win from there. We need another 2 good cpf's and another wingman. Then we have a chance at top 4. But all of the above will only happen with an increase in ability by the FD. 2021 we will need luck and the Gods on our side to play finals.

Correct Bbo, If you have confidence in the MFC you must be in the top 5% of the confidence mentality group.

Sorry for diverting the conversation LDC I agree with your comment.

It probably will be to him rjay

It appears to me DJ that there will no return to going to the football in numbers in 2021. I have already reconciled that it will be a TV game for me in 2021. I even have doubts that games will played in Victoria. Along with a lot of sports AFL is going to have to get by with less money.

LDC I am not certain of this but wasn’t Jack Lang the Premier of NSW? My father told a long time ago a little scepticism is a wise thing when dealing with large organisations.

Sounds wise to me LDC. But I fear it would end up being an internal review that would protect the old boys.
