If home, will be watching whatever coverage the AFL site has.

If you read this before 10am this morning, you can get a live radio feed online through the SEN site (just click on the 'Listen' tab) -

Haha...

Your brother isn't Cupid, is he?

That would make for an even better Statler & Waldorf combination than Statler & Waldorf do! :p

As for Drum, I thought he was 190cm at this time last year, surely he can't have shrunk a cm?

190cm isn't huge, but its been enough to get the likes of Mal Michael & Trent Croad by... Justin Leppitsch is only 191cm, and from memory Chris Mew wasn't any taller than that. Leo Barry played FB for the premiers @185cm, although I suppose it helped considerably that he was allowed to get into blokes backs with absolute immunity!

Drum is a quality footballer, and if he was still around at 14 (fat chance) I'd be happy for Hawthorn to snare him.

I still feel Dowler will be heading to Carlton. He has a great nature and would be good around a club, and his contested marking strength would be handy. He has his detractors, but I prefer to focus on the positives, and I think he has the capacity to become a Tredrea like player with his strong motor and fab hands.

The only think certain about Hawthorn today, is that at least one of: Kennedy, Ryder, Dowler or Clark will be bound for Glenferrie.

All have the potential to play CHF down the track, but I still see Roughead eventually filling that role. Kennedy & Ryder also seem like CHB prospects, while Dowler or Clark could be dangerous out of FF.

Hawthorn still requires 2 KPP types, and if they only take 1 today then you can assume that a) they still see Franklin as a future CHF and/or b) they're confident that Joshua Kennedy can gain the extra couple of cm next season to be picked-up f/s as a key defensive option.

I was sure the paper had him listed as 189 or maybe that was PRE that said 189. Either way, I'd like someone a bit taller if they are going for a backman that early.
