Re: Shaun Hampson Done Deal
Here we go, this time the correct year, July 2013.
VFL
Carlton ruckman Shaun Hampson suffered what is feared to be a season-ending knee injury in the first term of the Northern Blues' 69-point loss to Essendon at Windy Hill on Sunday.
Hampson was assisted off the ground by trainers after landing awkwardly from an attempted tackle. He will have scans on Monday to determine the damage.
But the 25-year-old's career with the Blues remains at the crossroads after managing just six matches this season.

Re: poll: Shaun Hampson
He can take a grab, moves well for a big man, seemed to play well against us the few times I can remember; kicked 3 goals I think in one game where he was on fire in a purple patch down the punt rd end one game. He is only 24 but is injury prone also. We must have big doubts on Maric groins/body. There will be many good players at pick 28, I could handle our 3rd pick but we've paid too much. Just hope we know we are getting another 2nd round pick as compo or trade from somewhere.

Re: poll: Shaun Hampson
That sounds fair.
We have no further need for Nahas.
They have no further need for Hampson.
Athough, Nahas has remained injury free.
Hampson appears to've had a season ending knee injury every year for the last 2 or 3 years.

Re: Shaun Hampson Done Deal
Should have expectations of obtaining an A grader or close to. B Grader definitely should be easy to identify if you have a half decent recruiting tream. We have pick 28, not 30+ and from the top of my head, Luke Parker from the Swans was taken around our pick I think.

Re: Shaun Hampson Done Deal
Parker was in the forties, but a pick in this region usually delivers the goods, we knocked back 28 on the Schulz deal - missed out on Beams & Hannebury. I pray that history isn't about to repeat itself.
So far this off-season has been horrible, worst I can remember since Blair joined the den.

Re: Shaun Hampson Done Deal
Just had a quick squizz at a few previous drafts. D.Beams pick 29, Hannebery pick 30, M.Duncan pick 28, Gunston pick 29, Luke Parker went at 40 (thought he went earlier) even more evidence you can find great players even later, B.Hill pick 33 are some examples in the last few years of players taken around our pick. All very good players, B+ to A graders for most of them. Yeah it's no certainty, but with our improved footy department & resources, you would think we have a good shot at identifying great talent.

Re: Shaun Hampson Done Deal
Career at the crossroads - with the Blues as he is third ruckman, fourth if you include Casboult.
Surplus to their needs, so tradable.
We are short ruckman.
To me the only question about recruiting him (yes please) is what price.
Given our desperation, we need to be more aggressive that otherwise might be the case.
That's a result of failure over the years to get a decent ruckman into the club before Maric.
You have to pay the going price.
A second rounder is not ideal, but if that's the price, that's the price.
All those bemoaning the price need to answer whether a ruckman is a more pressing need than another mid fielder.
I think it is.

Re: Shaun Hampson Done Deal
By the time all the compo picks are allocated, our pick 28 currently may end up in the early or mid 30's ie 35ish

Re: Shaun Hampson Done Deal
Here we go again.
Every trade period some journo writes an article that suggest what we are going to use to trade for a player is excessive to what the posters on here think the price should be . Every trade period that has been wrong.
Honestly many on here need to stop believing what you read in the newspapers and here on the TV about details of deals. They are almost never right.

Re: poll: Shaun Hampson
25; 26 in March. Has a leap, but Carlton supporters will tell you he doesn't clunk many.
Will reserve judgement until he pulls on the jumper. The club has earned the benefit of the doubt.

Re: Shaun Hampson Done Deal
There's an awful lot of smoke & fire about this one, I can only hope that Carlton will take Nahas off our hands, but this would seem to be a pipe dream.
