I believe it is Dangerfield. I received a call earlier today from a mate who is connected to the Club as a Player Sponsor and he has put his reputation on the line and declared that as soon as the Pick 12 comes in it will be Dangerfield for Picks 2 & 12. Effectively, Picks 2, 12 & 23 plus Jack Trengove for Dangerfield.

Absolutely not. I can't reveal how I know this but I know for a fact that the Hawthorn players can't believe he is still on the list. Absolute VFL grade only.

Agree, Swans looked slow. They will be so keen to add genuine leg speed that you can see some bundling of players eg Mitchell, Reid, Membrey to address that glaring need. Wouldn't touch Reid. Looks soft & quite disinterested.

Can't believe there are still Demonland supporters that think it was a 2 for 1 deal. I thought only lazy journalists thought that. Once again, Roos gave Picks 2 & 20 for Tyson & Salem. With those picks we could have taken Kelly or Bontompelli PLUS Lewis Taylor. I must be the only one that doesn't think we pulled off the trade of the decade.

It's official Curry & Beer, you are a know nothing [censored]. Please understand it wasn't a 2 for 1 deal. It was essentially 2 & 20 for Tyson & Salem. We could've used those picks for Kelly/Bontompelli & Lewis Taylor for example. All I can say is Salem would want to improve his intensity & output before we claim it as draft win.

Anyone that thinks any Club would use anything better than a pick 40 for Mitch at this year's Draft even with a glowing psych report is dillusional.

Hey Jazza, Roosy wouldn't be fazed as I went up and spoke to him this arvo at the Beach Rd oval. He was there to watch his son play for Sandy Dragons. Was also good that he got a first hand look at Petracca as well as Brayshaw once again. Anyway, I stated that I was very happy to drive Watts, Frawley & Jamar to wherever he wanted me to. He just gave that wry smile and said "you'll need a big bus" He was there with the wife so I nodded and moved on.

FCS don't get carried away with running 2nd or 3rd in the Bluey. Matt Jones, Terlich & Garland have been doing that recently. IMHO Tyson is going to be solid B Grader. Doubts over disposal, pace and very one sided. GWS knew they could let him go as they have so many similar or better. At this stage I would love to take back those TWO picks at 2 & 20 and select Josh Kelly & Lewis Taylor with them. You need some elite talent and not just a team of B & C Graders.

Dawes is a C Grader, plain and simple.

Chris Dawes is a hard working, hard chasing, serious football thinking C Grader.

Great work Joeboy. Absolutely spot on.

If you are watching today's game you can see the benefit of youth and speed. Love Cross but his lack of pace has been really exposed today.

I seriously can't believe any intelligent watcher of this footy club would think it would be correct to have to give up what we would have to give up to get a Boyd and then effectively prolong any chance of getting a midfield that isn't in the worst 2 in the AFL by more years. We need midfielders, more midfielders then some elite running & kicking defenders before we need another monster forward.

midfielders, midfielders and more midfielders, then an elite kicking, ball carrying half back before we even think about drafting anything else

Yes I watched it and was so disappointed in Garry Lyon because his view was, why would someone pay top dollar for a bloke that has both poor disposal and makes poor decisions. Described Frawley as a good reader of the play that is able to very often beat an opponent, however, doesn't provide much else. As I said recently, when was the last time Frawley was in the best 3 on the ground?

Every year there is a better ruckman de-listed than Spencer. Read Ceglar, Derryx, etc. The Spencer experiment is a total disaster. As for Evans, I have never seen anything to suggest he's any better than a battling VFL player.

We know that Bail, Terlich, Nicholson & Matt Jones are taking us nowhere, they are not good enough. We are very certain that Salem & JKH have many years ahead of them and should be managed and played sparingly for the remainder of the season. Therefore, in my opinion the above 6 players should be rotated in and out of the side for the remainder of the season to allow Blease, Tapscott and Michie to all have the remaining games which in the case of Tapscott and Blease will make or break their careers at MFC. I would spew up if Blease & Tapscott were to end up succeeding at other Clubs when they haven't had anywhere near the chances that some others have had.

14th would mean Pick 5 would be our first

A Club will offer a 2nd round for Billy but fortunately it will be one of the 14 or 15 that finish above us which means we will use our 3rd rounder. Our 2nd round too high, our 3rd rounder is a small win.

Once again, let's all remember that it wasn't Tyson & Salem JUST for Kelly. It was for Kelly and pick 20 and it certainly appears that there has been some very good players available at Pick 20. Let's just wait and see.

Garland's ability to play on a tall or a small makes him more valuable than others plus he's in the Leadership group and nothing to be served by sending him back with the absolute spuds at Casey I also think Salem might have rest for Terlich.

Absolutely no way Garland will be dropped & Gawn will never be played along with Jamar, Pederson & Dawes in the same side. Riley & McKenzie out Blease & Mitchie in

Spangher in the best players once again for Hawks on Saturday in front of 70,000 people. Endurance is as good as Tom's, he is a much better kick and doesn't perform the clangers every single week. FCS we've won 10 games in 3 years, we're absolutely shite so please don't defend them blindly.

Spangher is better player ATM than Tom Mac and he can't get a regular game at Hawks and probably goes when Gibson comes back. In fairness to Tom Mac, he is surrounded by butchers down in that back line. Imagine how much better he would be if he could offload to Birchall, Burgoyne, Hodge etc rather than Grimes, Howe, McKenzie etc.
