A bit of history with the Dogs and Hawks
Dew, Guerra, McCabe and Clarko in the last decade or so.. and back when Platts went over we ended up with Rudi, Lee, Flintoff and Shields all who were good contributors..
Obviously going back a fair while but history seems to be repeating..
Hopefully they'll all come back to us.

Marco Bello at Box Hill is kind of a Hawthorn affiliation.

Diekman and Murray Bastick are listed as ins on the SANFL site.
More depth for our reserves I guess.
Hoping that we might have a few more on the way.

There's about 5 or 6 newbies coming,
they will all get announced soon.
He's one of them.
When will these 5 or 6 newbies get announced?

Doesn't want to commit to the training. His work schedule doesn't help.

On an SEN interview (before we lost Cochrane), Greg Edwards didn't "infer" anymore.
