I wouldn't mind 1-2 more bad years for the Hawks, but 6 is pushing it. I'll back the club for that to be enough down time that they will still win flags afterwards.

Seems a few clubs are all trying to bottom out at once. Don't really care if the Hawks lose most games this year either, get some more good draft selections, but a win in Rd 1 would be nice.
Try a rebuild with 2 new teams with overly generous draft selections...

"Tuesday, March 14 - 8:43 pm
Flanders has been hyped in the preseason and just watch to see what he does. With that price he could be a handy risk for your bench."

Handy risk for your bench? Who writes these things?
Was just going through those little notes, and saw that one and did have a chuckle.

I'd be really surprised if Baker didn't get named.
Baker was excellent in the last preseason game & seems the ideal replacement for Hunter. Expect both will be named myself
2023= O Baker= Pre season supplemental selection.

2022= R McComb= Debuted in RD6 and played 14 matches (Sub in RD17). Rookie draft selection

2021= A Scott= Debuted in RD1 and played 21 matches (Unused sub in RD18). Preseason supplemental selection.

2021= L McNeil= Debuted in RD1 and played 13 matches (Sub in RD6). Rookie draft selection

Previously when “tagger” has been used it refers to the amount of touches, etc when directly opposed to the tagger.
Thanks, thought that may have been the case.... in which case what an absolutely pointless stat in isolation. You need to know how long the tag was for then as well. I checked fanfooty for the neale game in which he got 39 touches and normally on that site it would say "copped the perryman tag after half time" but it just said he was tagged by perrymen which makes me think it was the full game.

To be fair, you then pilfered those development squads for a lot of your players, also you should have finished your rebuild right at the start, you just mucked around for a few more years in the middle trying to make it hard on yourselves!

I mean you did have top draft picks from 2004 through 2009 before those sides, you could have quite easily been the Hawks had you drafted/developed better!

I’ll miss the team drops tomorrow afternoon which sucks
Least you don't have to get out of work early on Thursday and Friday. Especially Thursday where they do the bloody awful 4:20 game time, could at least be somewhat considerate and do the 4:40 like on Friday... Least the boss is programmed at this point to know that if he made me choose he'd have to look for a new employee :LOL:

Travelling for work this week and haven’t had a chance to keep up with any team news so super glad this thread is up! Thanks to everyone who is posting updates. So far I have resisted the urge to make any changes to my team!
