Tom Hawkins! That would be huge, dont think Geelong would let him go.
2 players? Could it be Thompson at CHF and Hall at FF?
Re: Dogs to chase big men
Surely Hawkins isn't up a serious offer.
More likely would be Lonegan if they dropped him this week.
Re: Dogs to chase big men
The hard thing about aggressive trading is it's a two way street. If we want to carve aggressively into someone else's list we have to carve aggressively into our own.
Who's expendable? And don't say Eagleton, Ray or anyone who plays most weeks for Willy. Which of our regular, talented, reliable, mid career, senior players would we give up for a decent tall from another club?

Boyd? Gia?

Whilst I wouldn't necessarily want to lose either of them if we could land a top flight key forward then this is what we might have to do to get the deal done.

Thorp 11 games, 18 goals including games of 6, 3, 4, 3. Kicked 2 goals in the last 5 games when he was tried at CHB, so, as a forward, 16 in 6. Hw was in the bests 3 times in 11 games. He didn't start playing until May but I don't know what was wrong with him. Good chance he had a restricted pre-season.
Dowler 17 games, 24 goals, best player list only once all season.
Boumann, 15 games, 28 goals in the reserves. Best player list 5 times (all in the last 8 games). Started off with just 5 goals from his first 7 matches, 23 goals in the next 8 matches. 14 goals in the 3 finals.
Seniors 2 games, 1 goal.
Re: Dogs to chase big men
Pretty rapid improvement late in the year for Boumann. Dowlers statistics are less than enticing.

Boumann was trialled down back in the ressies remember. Obviously he can't playt down back. Up forward his form speaks for itself.
