Why King thinks that Hawthorn may have to think about trading Mitch Lewis
“Do they have to look at trading someone like a Mitch Lewis?”

We wouldve broken GWM recordsHe was pretty good in 2 good premiership teams, 2019, & 2020, and has got even better since then.
Correct. Too slow for my liking.Which currently looks like being a slow and painful process.

So Kingy is proposing the trade of a 26yo who is unlikely to taste the ultimate success in the next 3-4 years in order to acquire much needed draft capital.
Resetting the age profile to something more akin to a premiership group coming through together.
Makes sense to me.
Carts, Mitch Lewis is overrated and who barely gets on the park.So Kingy is proposing the trade of a 26yo who is unlikely to taste the ultimate success in the next 3-4 years in order to acquire much needed draft capital.

But Norf's is going well.....The Mitchell/Hawthorn clear the decks strategy is going great
It’s the mindset Aces. Know where the list is at, be bold enough to offload for mutual gain.Carts, Mitch Lewis is overrated and who barely gets on the park.
We will be mired like Hawthorn if we expect to simply rise off the back of our standard first round picks year on year.The Mitchell/Hawthorn clear the decks strategy is going great
I'm confused by this comment; are you intimating that trading out a player is the equivalent of 'clearing the decks'?The Mitchell/Hawthorn clear the decks strategy is going great
Is this supposed to be the greatest draft of all time or something?Correct. Too slow for my liking.
We either stand in line with all the loser clubs or claim the guts out of this draft.
West Coast won a flag 11 years after they traded Judd. They also just missed a few chances while Judd was one of the best players in the league at Carlton.Folks want to keep Bolton because he’s a scintillating talent, our best player.
But they don’t take into account, or refuse to see the perilous state of the list. And how Bolton no longer aligns with our next premiership challenge.
Sometimes you just gotta trade out to set up the future. Judd to Carlton for Kennedy is a good example.
Didn’t happen straight away, but Kennedy eventually spearheaded a flag. The eagles also got picks 3 and 20, used on 200-gamer Chris Masten and the superstar Tony Notte.
What we need to do make hay with our best asset. Build a reliable, big-bodied, contested midfield.

Bolton, Balta and co. will be past their prime by the time we’ve assembled a half decent list.
No the point is they got excellent value from the trade, culminating in a flag featuring a player acquired through it. The longevity of his career is simply testament to the quality of the trade.West Coast won a flag 11 years after they traded Judd.

What is being proposed isn’t a “clean out” of experienced players though.See my response to 76er.
