On the Hawks I think regardless of injuries the hype doesn’t match their list maturity. Their forward line is still an issue and down back still a major concern.

Once Moore gets back, they will have close to the best small forward brigade in the comp.
But I agree the back line is iffy and Chol can’t be relied upon.
Midfield two years away from being elite. Still on schedule but overhyped now.
Jiath too has just been sen oS for his soft tissue problems.. Great player to watch but might be cooked.
Reckon they take a shot with Box Hill key defender Ethan Phillips.
Phillips has been elevated to the senior list, good luck to him.
Dees lose Brayshaw, Oliver limited preseason. That's your four time best and fairest player coming off al limited 23 with an limited preseason for 2024 and your fourth placed BNF finisher our of your side. The window is closing faster and faster at Melbourne.
Sad to hear about Brayshaw.
And on Oliver, watching him on the weekend was a reminder how much i enjoy his footy. (No coment on him personally)
Sure he was up against a 1st year Mcauliffe, a VFA Will Bravo and another young kid, but his attack on the footy and positioning is gold class. Hope he recovers

Would be a herculean effort if Smelbourne can somehow hold everything together and still make finals this year. Just copping hit after hit coming in from all sides at the moment.
Bartlett still suing the club, Clarry's issues, Joel Sniff ever growing drug saga, Brayshaw's concussion retirement, Perty's comments coming back to haunt him, May being an obnoxious *smile* round his team mates when he's on the turps.

Their talls suck apart from Lewis, and the Tigers pinched Koschitske who wouldve been a shot at CHB for them to cover the injury and DGB has struggled.
Thats their biggest issue. Frost to lead the defence with Sicily ?
They need Sicily playing as 3rd sag off intercept defender ala Grimes and Vlastuin during the Tigers domination era.
Now hes gonna have to primarily guard a body .
Who the *smile* is Pretty? If you are meaning Perty as in Gary Pert. He was gibbering on a year or two ago about how good the culture is at Smelbourne, best culture he'd been involved with in 40 years of footy. Meedjia keep throwing the comments back in his face every time there's another little unexpected one off culture failure at Smelbourne.
Thanks - Pretty, Perty……….Party….. they are all the same to me. Wasn’t sure if you meant Petty the player or Pert the administrator
Not sure why we'd be discussing a muso on a footy thread, but there's only one Perty that I've know about involved in footy.
It's a pity that Petty can be a patty when the coach treats him putty and then acts potty.
Luke Parker unfortunately broke his arm on the weekend. Must put him in doubt for our game against them for rnd 3 on the 31st March.
