Yep, it was all a big laugh last year too, until the end of trade period and we had Hampson!!!!!

Hamspud was the year before last WAT - last year bought us the recruiting coup of Hunt....

The way Maric is going at present. Hampson could be a main Ruckman next season. He can ruck so don't write him off just yet. Vickery will hopefully have a better year who is also important in the ruck & forward. Did you take notice yesterday how important Hawthorn rely on their ruckman when the push forward. Hale & McEnvoy play huge parts & ain't spectacular

Hampson was brought in at the end of 2013. Which is why its very important to hold onto Lennon (drafted same year).

The club stated that they wouldn't be looking to trade picks away during last years trade period on account of the high quality of the draft.

Yes that's right 2013..

So who are the star players we picked up last year during the trade/FA period???

I mean we must be going to get someone very very good this year because of our aggressiveness and war chest... :whistle :whistle :whistle

We got Hunt who has played one season to get used to the changes in his life & his surrounding. He could have a huge season 2016. who knows

Though I can see it now from the club after another underwhelming off-season....oh look we still think there's a lot of scope for improvement from within the list...blokes like Lambert & Hunt are only going to get better...Houli probably just missed out on All-Australian last year....Morro still has a lot to offer and a lot to prove after last year...Griff & Ty are only now coming into their prime...Sam Lloyd just keeps taking big steps....with the sub rule gone Shaun Hampson will be getting more chances and looking to step up......Chrissy Yarran adds another dimension....I think we're in a very good place to challenge again...

....Griggy excelled in his new role last year and really took his game to a new level, he'll be important again for us this year...Brando just gets better every year and is building towards becoming an elite player of the competition........
