      This is why we must have a dislike button. This is stupid unless Smith & Macrae are being traded. Even then…

        It makes sense though, since Lachie Hunters departure we've had a distinct lack of chinless punchable heads in our team.

        Harmes will paper over that crack beautifully.

          Whose nightmare am I in?

          Blew our season vs Hawks & Eagles. Re-signed the fringe. Croft uncommitted. Three Firsts for a six pick upgrade. A kid who hasn’t played in two years. And now a c grade midfielder.

            This potential move does worry me most of all.

                  Relax everyone Wayne Harmes retired years ago. His league footy days are long past. Even we wouldn't pick a player who finished back in the '80s up



                  Oh. James Harmes? The Bailey Fritsch type but with no ability?

                      Why would you take a 3 x AA out of the midfield, have one of your best young mids crack it due to no midfield time, then bring in a very underwhelming player from another club.
                      I can't see what the role would be?

                          Averages 18 touches over his career as a mid and a goal kicking accuracy under 50% accounting for complete misses of his forward finishing abilities.

                          No wonder he’s gettable.

                              Hopefully the media is just punking us. This is so bad.

                                I don't understand an apparent interest in James Harmes. We do need some additional run but his best football was 3 or 4 years ago.
                                I hope we don't get in a position where we are paying Hunter to play against us and because of the gap that created that we get Harmes to play for us.
