    Agree. The original mark and kick footballer. Once the ball is on the ground near him, he becomes a liability.

      I couldn't stand watching that ridiculous run up week in week out even if he was in Swans colours

        I would be super surprised if we consider him. Longmire has mentioned the importance of players being able to perform in several roles.

          I know it's verboten to want Hawthorn to win any game, but with a 4 goal lead in the 1st qtr and Geelong heavy favourites to beat us, we are looking in good shape to regain pick 3 in the draft. But if we win, then we will move down to pick 5 by surpassing the Suns.

          It's a bit painful to barrack for Hawthron, but no pain, no gain, as they say.

            Six goals to one in the first quarter with the Hawks dominant. Some have said they're tanking. Doesn't appear so.....

            Go Suns! (I don't care what draft pick we get).

              That stupid super long galloping giraffe run up is nauseating to watch - a very big NO from me!

                Fair comment nobody and I mean nobody likes to see Hawthorn win game however that said it looks like we will be moving one up in the order on the draught pick hopefully we use it well unless of course we beat Geelong today which would be good

                  So who are we selecting with pick 3?

                    If the Crows do pick up Thilthorpe as alleged then we would have a crack at either Hollands or Macdonald.

                      I wonder what Adelaide would give us for Hayward.

                        At the SCG he would start his run up from the opposition goal square.

                          Brown's got a longer run-up than Lillee had.

                          Did he miss his calling as a fast bowler?

                            Any one of those 3 will be very nice. That's why pick 3 was so much better than 4.

                            Just that one spot better in the draft makes me want to stay in the draft with our 1st pick, instead of trading it. But we might have to trade for extra points if we use pick 3 and Campbell gets a high bid.

                              The chance to add three top picks in one draft is rare, we'll take the 2021 deficit if we have to just to add those three. Next years draft touted to be one of the best and deepest ever so a deficit won't hurt, be the difference between getting a Jack Trengove at pick 2 and a Dustin Martin at pick 4!

                              Joined at the hip to Ollie Florent, neither going anywhere. We don't need another draft pick for an 18yo, we need more mature players like Hayward. Buckle in for the ride!

                                Hayward has had some quiet games but overall, he's been solid enough. Certainly not average enough to actively seek to trade him out. But if it was needed to land an established star, then sure, we would have to consider it.
