Was thinking the same. If the choice is Elliott on a longer deal on slightly more coin or Tory next year, Elliott is an upgrade and a free agent. Say he wants $450,000, there's still change from Jack Martin not wanting $700,000 from us. Keep this momentum going Sam Power!

Sammy has done a mighty fine job since he has started with us.

Can't do too much better than he has. I'm really impressed.

Re: Proactive Poaching

I think we have now secured the two KP players we need and I'll be happy enough to land a lower key player or two from here.

A versatile support ruckman and someone like Aidan Bonar would be nice additions

Lets see how we going about landing both Bruce and Keath and how we can better position ourselves from next season draft bonanza

Is it too early to start calling this offseason the #SummerofSam?

Re: Proactive Poaching

Players in their prime actually nominating us before trade week even starts. Is this how Hawks fans feel?

Re: Proactive Poaching

Keath also toured Moorabbin but chose us, so a good nod to our people and plans that we have attracted the player over other clubs.

This doesn't happen often.

How good must we be as a destination these days when compared with Essendon.

Paddy Ryder toured Essendon and then St.Kilda, and has subsequently expressed his preference to join the Saints because the feeling and excitement around Moorabbin was so much better than what he picked up with his tour of his old Club.

Now we have 2 high-end mobile key position players expressing us over Moorabbin.

Sorry BAD, will put my thinking cap on. Hard to see keeping 12 at this point, unless a player of some quality wants out. Will think some more though.

Do we really need our future first given our access to JUH? Could we get creative here to hold on to a first round this year?

Yes. We need the 1,000-1,200 draft points attached to them. But I can see us trading it down for an overall increase in draft points. I explained the draft points situation on the afl board.
