So RTB had a meeting with Brad and Hawks are aware of it. Sounds like he's coming home

He'll be very handy but hopefully he doesn't cost us an arm and a leg because we have bigger holes to fill

Hill has talent, but I reckon he is overrated similar to Lewis Jetta

As long as it doesn't cost you much then it would be good for Freo

Someone like Hill will just take away from a young gun like Blakely, I'd keep my draft picks

Blakely is purely an inside mid while Hill can't win a hard ball to save his life. Not sure what they have to do with eachother. Hill would take Pearce's spot.

A combo of Hill, Hill and Bennell would be pretty difficult to contain.

Does Blakely still have a spot on the inside when the cavalry returns next year? I'm not so sure, depends where Ross wants his soldiers to go.

Barlow is likely to get moved so Fyfe is the only one that comes in. The thing is guys like Fyfe and Mundy can spend time out of the midfield which would mean that he has a spot in the rotation and with his form this year it will be hard to keep him out of the team next season.

Hill's form isn't great and he has been having off-field problems so going home probably is a decent option for him.

Hawthorn move him on and then have more room to pursue the likes of Tom Mitchell, O'Meara and Prestia.

Its a win-win for both.

Nige

Yep, he'll get to Freo.

Hawks will definitely be okay with moving him on too. As AK said, they'll definitely pursue Tom Mitchell and/or Jaeger.

Hard to believe this lad is a Triple premiership player.

Think he could do some damage at Freo, siblings seem to work well together at Footy Clubs!

Massive down hill skier, guys like SMitchell, Hodge, Burgoyne, Lewis have made him look good
If Freo get him it will be Des Headland 2.0

Better off saying flower you Hawks we want Tom Mitchell, yeah he is similar to Barlow, a slow accumulator. But how many players can rack up 40 touches with out breaking a sweat like Mitchell

But a deal between Hawthorn and T.Mitchell is basically done though. Just need to deal with Sydney.

Do Freo have cap space to beat Hawthorn for Mitchell? Would Mitchell pick Freo over Hawthorn? I doubt it.

RaisyDaisy

Nah the two have nothing to do with each other

Hill wants to go home, so Freo will need to satisfy Hawks request which is believed to be a first round pick atm.

I don't rate Brad Hill much at all, but he is only 23 and entering his prime so I think a first round pick is fair from that point of view as long as it's a late pick in the 14-20 range. I just think he's very very similar to Lewis Jetta - both overrated and one dimensional

We have the cap space to get anyone. Most just dont want to come to WA
