Shaun Hampson / Hammertime [merged]

[tony_montana]

Longer would have cost a fair bit more, dont even think the hawks first pick will be enough to get longer, they'll need to sweeten the deal. Hampson was serviceable in the ruck when Kruzer went down. Reckon he'll do ok

No way we will give up pick 28 for this turd. 
It's jut not logical!
Hampson is no better than Big O. Infact if it were up to me, I would have played Big O in front of Ivan in the final just on form.
Big O's tap work is far superior than Ivan's.
Big O can do the back up roll at least for another year until we can make a decent trade for a Mumford type.
If you are going to trade for a ruckman at least make sure the ruckman is half decent.

Pick 31 when compo picks are added. It's done. Big O can't play 2 games straight. Looks like he's still hunched over from the previous week.

Would think once the dust settles  that if he ends up costing our compo pick that we receive for either McGuane or White then in actually fact it hasn't cost us much at all

Let's see what compo we get first and then panic, rant or blow a "woofer" valve 

I reckon you will find there will be incessant moaning, open letters of protest, jazz hands and all sorts regardless. 

I'm off to play some GTA as soon as this is confirmed.

Who would have thought that a straight swap for Mcguane would have caused this much angst 12mnths ago.

IDE take a straight swap for Mcguane but our second round pick is highway Robbery!!!

Not if the pick we given them ends up being one of our compo picks

Yeah sorry, I should have said pick 28 (as it stands now) they can have the compo pick just not our first second rounder

My hope is;

Pick up Hampson with pick 28 and gain an earlier pick for McGuane or White.

Doubt we'll get any picks for either.

Disagree

reckon we may end up with 1 pick for the 2 of them but we will get something

Gee I wish you had your words "1 pick" back to front...

Now that makes more sense - a 2nd round compo pick which is basically the beginning of the 3rd round for Shaun Hampson makes more sense.
Pick 11/12 and pick 28 should be used to pick up under age talent or Taylor Adams.
At 25, it would be difficult to see him making more improvement but its happened before to Ruckman.
I'd like to see Chappy picked up as a free agent and then we land 2 mature aged recruits and probably 4 kids with our national draft picks.
Means we de-list the Big Zero,O'Hanlon, Nahas and 1 other? with White, McGuane and possibly Astbury traded or leaving for free agency.
Although he has re-signed I wouldn't be surprised to see Griffiths traded if the Saints coughed up an exchange of a 1st rounder or 2nd rounder outright.
Unlikely but not out of the question.

Pretty sure we wont get a compo for McGuane and White but rather one bundled together

Edit: Just saw you said that in a later post

Why hasn't this been done yet?

I want a personal apology from Ch7

And RFC
