yeah but the hawks also got rid of players like Thompson, Rawlings, Hay etc who at the time were pretty big names on hefty contracts....they deemed them to be not part of future plans and they got rid of them.....you wont see richmond make those 'tough' calls.

Spot on!!!!!

Good bye Richo, Joel, Kane, Krak and Tiva.

Tough Times Tough Decisions.

Thats why Hawthorn have improved....they weren't afraid to upset anyone by holding onto a senior player for sentimental reasons. Stop protecting the players! Show some guts and drop the deadwood who dont perform.
 
DHN, your tagline in all your posts sound like an election slogan.

Zips I am just fed up with sentimental *smile* and think its time someone stood up and showed a few passengers the door. This club will not get ahead following the deadwood. Show me any successful club that has endures such a continual pathetic display from players who feel they have a right to run out onto the G.
I think its absurd this accpeted without question!

Sorry i meant something of currency....
i modified my last post before i read this one.
hawthorn hardly made the hard call on thompson and rawlings,they both asked to be traded.
we could say we made the hard call on ottens if that`s the case.
we got picks 12 and 16 for him.
wrong ottens walked out on us

Next year we are specifically looking for a new type of player: those that cant get kicks & cant kick it when they do.
Will Jackson be the captain?

Only issue I have with this is that this would be 5 delistings, as we would be lucky to get a 3rd round pick for any of them due to the reluctance to trade these days, the ages of Richo, Joel, Kane, and Tiv, and the average form of Krak.

it`s amazing that this is something that has to be implemented into our recruiting,it should be common sense to only recruit people who can kick.
it`s no use if you can as fast as carl lewis,have the endurance of craig mottram and the strength of dean lukin if you can`t do the most fundamental part of the game,kicking the bloody football.

Good call Mopsy!
