If he played for Richmond you would say he's soft and doesn't apply enough defensive pressure.

If we traded our first round pick for the Saints number 10 (effectively pick 3) and 2 all time great players for nothing Claw would have a coronary.
I enjoy your posts Claw but if you want to barrack for Hawthorn then post on their forum.

"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

It's actually hilarious how anti-Richmond he is. Anything we do = wrong. Anything other teams do = right.

Granted, we've still got a lot of work to do but if you'd read his posts in isolation you'd think we'd be winless on the bottom of the ladder.

Would i,   wow thats some sort of mind reading ability right there. How dumb are you. Your on another thread having a cheap shot and talking about how sides dont play three talls and castigating me about how the games changed and how rubbish it is playing three talls yet here i am consistent as ever wanting a bloke like gunston to play THIRD  tall.I dont believe Jack Gunstons courage has ever been questioned by anyone.

Why do you constantly feel the need to start personal poo fights by attacking the poster rather than debating what has been said.
Mate if you think Gunston is no good and we should not be interested have the balls to say so. But dont have a go at me for thinking differently.If i ever call him soft it will be because i see it until then how about we take what people say on face value eh. No wonder this site cant grow so many stuffing idiot heads.

Would be happy to pick up Gunston.

Only one poor season so far, this year, coinciding with a very poor year from Hawthorn in general, which would effect Gunston's scoreboard impact.

Even Roughead is having a quiet year, and Cyril too. Whole team is off.


DO NOT want Tippet.

As for Gunston fantastic player just about the best third tall fwd in the game and thats what he is a third tall who has been asked to play kp a lot of the time.
If people want a contested marking player or someone who is going to crash packs then he aint your man he is your typical smart hit up and lead tall type who continually moves.
He would be an ideal get for our club, 

Wait, aren't you the one who says that JR is a third tall who has to play KP? Why would we actively seek another one if we have no genuine KPF?

Also lol at Grimes being soft but this peanut isn't?

Just another childish post that Claw was talking about. Grow up mate you aren't proving anything to anyone.
Im sure Willy can fight his own battles without you weighing in.

Dont worry about it bt nowdays i usually just pop in once in a while give my opinion on what ever catches the eye then   get out and leave em to it let wallow in their own small mindedness most of them deserve each other.

 Do you not understand what discussion/debate is? Surely you're old enough to understand that people have different opinions and it's okay to discuss it. This isn't about "fighting Willy's battle" or trying to troll Claw or whatever it is you conjure up in that insecure mind of yours. Claws on record as saying Jack is a "third tall forward" and has copped some stuff for it, for which I actually agreed with him to an extent (I still think he can play KPF just fine) but let's not confuse you. So I find it interesting he wants us going for another third forward type when we need a big strong bodied forward who can preferably pinch hit in the ruck much much more

I'm not going to respond to your entire poorly written, poorly punctuated diatribe but the fact that you don't think Gunston is soft just illustrates my point. You have one set of criteria for Richmond players and one for everyone else.

And FWIW I rate Gunston and would trade for him. I'm just sick of your predictable anti-Richmond BS.
