Four Points: Wingard route hurt the Hawks, clever Dons recruit, commentary call of the round – The Age
Chad Wingard was Hawthorn’s best player against North, which is part of the lowly Hawks’ problem. Wingard was brought in to be the difference to keep the Hawks…
Its a simple enough scenario, and one made with the smartarsery of hindsight, to consider the difference had Hawthorn kept their player and their draft pick and used that pick on Duursma. Or, if not Duursma, then another player of similar quality. Would they not be further advanced in development and closer to a flag had they taken the step back to step forward sooner, back in 2018?
