    Knew Huddo was there but didn't know about Hahn. Figures being a Qld boy.

    Off topic, but how innocuous was Hahn's ACL?

    He just jumped up for a mark, not high, landed normally to the naked eye, and bingo.

    ACL.

    ACL.
    Totally shattered was one of my faves. Was absolutely in white hot form when he did it as well.

    Dunkley is one of the best inside mids in the comp. He is a massive unit and finds the ball plenty all game. He also has an impressive overhead game. The Brions would have been licking their lips and pinching themselves for their good luck.

    He just seems to compliment their other mids so well

    I really liked Hahn as well. That big frame and long kicking.

    I like the direction this thread is going, Hahn was a beast and really was our barometer. He was a very likable player.

    Likewise, Ben Hudson was underrated and very important to our side at the time. Both are good examples of players who got the best out of themselves.

    If they are prepared to pay Dunks what has been mentioned they will offer a late 1st rounder and a 2nd rounder as their starting point.
    It will be up to Sam Power and maybe a couple of other clubs to help them get the points they need by being creative. Gold Coast have some draft capital that might interest us.
    When Neale went from Freo to Brisbane and Freo received picks 6 & 19 with a few late picks shuffled. Good to keep in mind. This was before Neale won a brownlow.

    Loved Hahn too.

    How good would he be in today's game? Big powerful mid who can go forward.

    Was always a gamble when Hahn kicked the ball. It's wobbling around but it could go straight or OOB on the full. Literally in the hands of the gods once it touched his boot

    Loved Hahn too. Typified the no fuss, tough as teak dogs’ players we love. And the People’s Beard, wow just so good in a non flashy way. Mr Perrenial - 4 clubs wasn’t it? (Crows, us, Pies?, Lions?)

    Clearly we need a Mitch Hahn appreciation thread

    Dunkley is that big bull midfielder that they have needed over the last two years. As talented as their midfielders are Dunkley will be a point of difference for them. Hate to see him go but it's done now so lets get the maximum return and find ourselves some players.
