    Delistings

    Just saw on twitter some surprise delistings

    Ryan Gamble from Geelong : would we look here?

    Skipper & Taylor both gone from Hawthorn - that surprises me a bit, even with Hale coming on board.

    Re: Delistings

    The AFL website keeps an updating list-



    Suprised Hawthorn delisted Skipper, maybe because he was a mature age rookie on a one year contract. Anyone know if that meant they'd have to put him on the main list to retain him?

      I think they have acknowledged that 7 ruckman is too many. They might also be looking to add Campbell back on.

          Neither surprised me once they decided to draft that tall spud from North. Fancy giving up the GC compo pick on a player that will add nothing to what Wayde Skipper was able to provide to the Hawks for the majority of 2010 - maybe they felt guilty for being given such generous compensation for Campbell Brown in the first place.

          Pelchan, the self-proclaimed mastermind of recruiting, has certainly drafted plenty of chaff in the top 20 - Thorp, Dowler, Muston. Rioli was a great get but there are more misses than hits.

            Skip no longer on an AFL list, a sad day for the Eker movement, and just as he was starting to hit his straps too. There are definitely worse ruckmen running around out there.

              If it wasn't for things falling his way in 2004 where they got Roughead and Franklin because Richmond are Richmond, his record would be shitfull.

                And we may have ended up with the better Roughead anyway.

                  Some Hawthorn supporters were suggesting that this year, a bit premature but we can hope. Perhaps someday we'll end up with both of them.

                    And with that trade they have become the AFL side with the most amount of wigs ever recorded in 1 team.

                      Sorry Pieman, certainly hope not, this bloke is the king of the Joe the Goose, gets on the end of everyone else's good work further up the ground, would add absolutely nothing to our list.

                        What about taking a risk on Beau Muston? He has had some problems but we might be able to use him as a defensive forward

                          He is an idiot, a first class imbecile & I'd hate for the kids watching Williamstown to have to put up with his foul mouth tirades each week.

                              Skipper to the rookie list? Surely we can get him over the line for life membership?
