Are we looking at hawthorn fringe playerS?
I assume not
nope, coz wait for it , they're fringe players , refer how savage went this year, he was a fringe player at st Kilda
was he. here i was thinking after a slow start he copped his share of injuries then played some opretty decent footy then missed the last two games with injury. injuries aside he played 14 games that hardly made him a fringe player. he was emergency for the g/f last yr and played in all three of hawthorns finals in 2012. reckon that made him at least a top 25 player at hawthorn.
whilst hes not my cup of tea because of deficiencies and consistency problems i can see why stkilda were happy to get himas the steak knives in the mcevoy trade. reckon hes had just as good a yr as many of our players this yr.
players at hawthorn i like on the outer.
shoenmakers, hallahan, and litherland.
shoenmakers who is much maligned i thought he just started find his feet and play some decent footy in 2012, had a good start to 2013 and did his knee early on. reckon he was just starting to find his feet again but missed the g/f.
hallahan has found it difficult to break into their midfield ive liked him since junior days and i think he can play. they risk losing him if they cant guarantee him a game.hes already shown he can play and dominate in the vfl hes a clearance machine and needs opportunity.
litherland is a claremont lad and i liked a fair bit of him as a junior. good athleticism pace and good size. at 192 he can play on both smaller and tall players. he got a fair few games this yr and he showed a bit.
