Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?

Apparently Shoenmakers has signed a 1 year deal with Hawthorn.

Great news. Maybe he saw our ball movement and went, 'nah Box Hill is better than that'.

Where was that reported Aza? I know he has had a 1 year contract in front of him. If he has put pen to paper that is good news for us.

Ain't going to happen but I'd cough up some primo assets if we could coax Ben Brown across from Norf.

Maybe he's gutful of losing.

We finally catch a break. Mind you, I am concerned if it is true we were interested in him. I don't get it.

Think it would be hard to pry Brown from North. No other club gives him the chance to get home 3 times a year.

Might not be as hard if all their salary cap is sucked into Martin. I'd be making more than polite enquiries to Brown's management if Martin chooses Norf.

Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?

Can someone jog my memory and tell me one player who has lived up to his expectation that we have traded from another club?
Boyd hasn't yet, Cloke hasn't, Crameri didn't, maybe Biggs.
We haven't been good at getting a big name player and he performed for us.
Our own drafting has been exceptional.
Maybe we should just go with that unless we can get Lever.
Let's face it our age demographic means we are after players in their prime that clubs won't let go. Especially the standard we are chasing.

Yes he did. Then he was suspended and injured

To a certain extent yes but for the reasons you just mentioned he hasn't been able to get on the park for us for two years.
I feel for him and he might not even get a gig for us next year.
The bombers have finished off a lot of careers early, it disgusts me.

In a 4 year contract he has performed for 1 year. Thats a failure of a trade

Hamling was a material part of the flag win and most of the finals run. He has been a real loss, he would have been more than handy this year.

He performed 14 and 15.16 was the result of the gamble we took knowing his history with the bombers and a year long injury is just bad luck. When he's played he's been good.

The only real part of the trade you'd question is trading for a player dealing with the drug scandal at Essendon. However I'd still say he met expectations as we knew he'd likely miss time though suspension.
