Hang on, if Everett hasn't signed, doesn't he need to be picked up in the draft? I can never remember how all of this garbled mess works come October...

not necessarily..... ALL player contracts technically expire on 31st October, so Everitt is still a Hawk until then.
IF a suitable trade CAN'T be done, then YES he will have to go Via the draft. But as hawthorn will LOSE him anyway they'll take what they can get at trade time
Hawks sound like they'll only get a 2nd round draft pick, methinks, and that could end up being anywhere between Picks 30-34 if Sydney are the only one's chasing him! (realistically thinking that Sydney will at least make the Prelim and finish top 4)

Not directly (don't think we'd want Everitt), but indirectly (three way trade or something like that)?
Nah...can't see Us getting into that trade. Unless the Dawks want a Bolton, Solomon or a Welsh.

With French retiring, Carlton have no-one who is decent to ruck. Don't know if they will have the cash to pay him though. They should the way they have been going, and now that Kouta is taking a huge amount less.
If Spider went to Carlton, there isn't a lot of upside for the Hawks going the other way in terms of trades (can you see them wanting a Houlihan for example?)

Don't really want anything from Sydney anyway

Would we consider Everitt? If we delist Cartledge and since Ryder is still young and probably injured, we might need another one for a couple of years. Aka + Everitt would be very handy pickups. Wouldnt waste a draft pick on Everitt tho - get him only in the preseason draft
Getting Everitt may be a good idea. Getting an older ruckman has worked in the past in terms of results but the development of our younger ruckman would take alot longer.

We havent had a ruckman for a few years.
Getting the best tap ruckman in the league makes sense.
what is HIlle? Everitt is way past his best, he may be able to tap but his work around the ground is less than average. Stick with Hille and Laycock, Ryder will put on some beef over pre season and be used as pinch hitter. If we are aiming at a g/f in 3 years why get an old hack that will only last 2?
