        This is some silly season so far. Isn't the practice of giving a "stuff you I'm leaving I've got a better job" only done after the new job is secured? I think we will need to find money for a couples counsellor if Coons & Jones are forced to come back.

            More to the point, if they're forced to come back with their tail between their legs maybe they'll be more inclined to put their heads down and do what's asked of them, because clearly the market doesn't rate them as highly as they thought it did. Similar to Dustin Martin last season, the whole "*!*!*!*! you, you can't tell me how to play, I'll just go somewhere else" card is no longer in the deck for them.

              Cooney may have been influenced to leave due to his close friendship with Brian Lake. Lake proved to be the missing link in Hawthorn's two premierships. You would hardly see Coons having anywhere near the same value to other clubs. Jones until the arrival of Bontempelli and Stringer had been our main go to player up forward which he wasn't up to producing on a consistent basis.. His good performances at VFL level hasn't been converted at the higher level, which was a major concern.

                Any chance Geelong ?
                If they lose Christensen and perhaps Varcoe

                  John Ralph has reported Essendon sniffing around Adam Cooney.

                    Cooney told the club that if they can find a trade for him he's gone.
                    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                        Suddenly our defensive efforts improved significantly. How Cooney must miss play on at all costs unaccountable football.
