Was he a part of Hawthorn’s Next Gen Academy? Meaning he had to get passed pick 40 for Hawthorn to be able to match any bid for him?
I know the player Essendon took 2 picks later was a Dogs Academy and the Dogs weren't pleased. They got him at 39. 1 pick later and the Dogs could match.

Wonder what number he'll get?
Wore 15 in juniors, taken by Krueger.
Brother wore 29 in first three seasons at Hawks. Taken by Richards.
Brother now wears 9 for Hawks. Noble has 9.
8, 12, 19, 20, 21, 27, 33 are up for grabs. A few players like Markov or Harrison might look at changing numbers too.

Reading through these posts, there is a common theme…agree
A few weeks ago, I skimmed over just one of his highlight vids, just seemed too raw, I didn't give him much thought.
In light of his selection, I have looked through all of his footage through a different lens.
Really crisp hands, natural evasion, good in traffic, seemingly a good decision maker. Running around, he reminds me of a newly born foal finding its legs for the first time.
Not only do I think I have not seen such a raw yet rounded recruit before, what's ridiculous is I even get a sense of 'presence'.
I guess huge scope of improvement in him. This kid has a chance to be a Gun.

1-4 yr players start Monday 27/11BazBoy wrote:Have Harry and Tew joined the other young players??????
The rest 7 days later
Both Harry and Tew have visited with their families.
There are af hoc players training and I would guess they is a good chance they would want to join in.
It is a Professional environment, perhaps they have been given a simple excercise progarm. Id say they are there.. they looked keen as mustard.

I know they offered 13 to Harry DeMattia, but after seeing Tew specifically say Daisy Thomas was his childhood hero, I'd love to see him get that number.BazBoy wrote:Still want know his number
I'm sure Lumumba would like to see Tew get the #8 which is also available.

#13 would have been a nice association for a player that idolised Daisy Thomas.
But #8? Tew Jiath has as much connection with Heritier Lumumba as I do.
I read one comparing Jiath to Allir Allir, who was born in Kenya to South Sudanese parents.
Tew Jiath was born in Ethiopia to South Sudanese parents.
I was born in Wagga Wagga, so was Michael Slater. That's where the comparison ended.
