    Skipper to Hawthorn

    Obviously a stop gap because their stocks are so depleted, but good luck to Wayde, who always tried his hardest.

    Apologies if a thread has already been started.

    Re: Skipper to Hawthorn

    I'm pretty happy to see him get a go somewhere else and hope he is successful. (apart from when they play us of course) There are constant people ragging on him on Bulldogs forums but I give him so much credit for last season. He worked his butt off this year and never put his head down despite not getting a game at AFL level. Hard work has paid off. Well done Skip!

      Well done to Skip.

      You'd think he'll play a few games for the Hawks too. Their ruck division is poor and Skip is perhaps a better option than Taylor already.

          I wish him nothing but good luck and hope he plays plenty of games for the sqwarks.

          Any one who will have to deal with or at least be nice to Kennett needs all the help he can get.

            All the best to Skipper, amazing he has been able to make a 10 year career out of AFL considering the actual output.

              Good luck to SKipper, glad his career will continue after really working his butt of this year. I think he will fit in OK in the Dawks side too, as rucking has always been their weakness.

                Good luck to the lad, was close to the best player in the VFL last year and was unfortunate not to be rewarded with a senior game. Hopefully he can break into the Hawks 22.

                    All credit to Skip for sticking at it and being as professional as he was when stuck behind two other ruckmen

                      Yep, well done to Skipper.

                      Besides perhaps not having as much natural talent and size as some of his contemporaries, his willingness to work hard and battle against the odds could never be questioned. Good reward for his efforts.
                      Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

                            It's great to hear that he has been given a second chance. I always did have a bit of a soft spot for him and wish him all the best at the hawks.

                              I second this.

                              I love Skip and can only wish him the best of luck.
