I agree. Really happy with this news.clarky449 wrote:Will be good to see both back at the club even if it is Part Time Role!!!
Always thought Maxy was a chance given he worked so closely with Watters at Pies. Sounds like it will be a similar part time role
Bit surpised about the Hamill one but very pleased. Always been one of my favs. Didn't know he was interested in coaching...maybe just dipping his toe in the water in a part time capacity. Great to have him back.
Article also says we will be appointing a part time midfield coach.
In terms of full time line coaches - one more to be appointed...is that correct??

It might have had something to do with Max being injured most of the year and showing a tendency to reinjure himself whenever he came back.Moccha wrote:An outstanding and popular defender for 234 games, Hudghton played seven games in his final year, with coach Ross Lyon preferring Zac Dawson as his first-choice full-back.![]()
What a ridiculous move that proved!
There is absolutely no comparison between the two!!

Bingo. I think when he was playing with Dawson he looked a bit at sea as he was not playing his customary full-back position and he had to kick the ball a little more than usual and then...yeh....turn-over central.kosifantutti23 wrote:It might have had something to do with Max being injured most of the year and showing a tendency to reinjure himself whenever he came back.Moccha wrote:An outstanding and popular defender for 234 games, Hudghton played seven games in his final year, with coach Ross Lyon preferring Zac Dawson as his first-choice full-back.![]()

Thats not the point its the way he reacted when the pies won, look at Luke Ball for example he respected his former team mates after the siren.IluvHarvey wrote:How dare he get a job!bigred wrote:Max can go flog himself.

You spend a few years out of your chosen profession of 15 years to give other business ventures a try and are told you are too far behind the 'system' to be effective. Gee one would believe you would not take it too well.saintspremiers wrote:Not convinced about Hammer.
He has been out of the system a few years now and could be too behind to be effective. Champion player and on field leader though, so who knows ?
Forward pressure always has a place. Look at the lucklustre McQ who received another contract due to it. Trouble is his was perceived and he couldn't tackle a 3 year old child compared to Hamill and his real pressure.

saintspremiers - maybe some blokes might be "behind the times" after being out of the game for a while ... but not Aaron Hamill.
Aaron Hamill played in a way that was 10 years AHEAD of the times. To quote David Parkin on ABC radion in 2005: "Aaron is possibly the best defensive forward to ever play the game, the best defensive forward I have seen".
What has the game evolved to be about over the last 2-3 years?
Defensive forwards, defensive pressure in the forward line.

I think Older Saint meant (and correct me if I'm wrong Older Saint) that he thinks we'd have 2 more premiership cups if we had Aaron Hamill in his prime playing in the 2009/10 seasons, and not Aaron Hamill as a shot 32 & 33 year old. Because as you say Clarky, he WAS shot. And I agree Older Saint, those years would have suited Hamil to a tee! If only he was fit and firing for a few more seasons...clarky449 wrote:Uh no we wouldnt of.

Yeah, If Hammil's body was still up to it he would of been a great asset during though's years.Liam_G wrote:I think Older Saint meant (and correct me if I'm wrong Older Saint) that he thinks we'd have 2 more premiership cups if we had Aaron Hamill in his prime playing in the 2009/10 seasons, and not Aaron Hamill as a shot 32 & 33 year old.

If they're in it to help us win a flag this year; Great.
If they're in it for the $ eff them off.
Aarron's 5 year contract sinked us so that we couldn't afford the players we needed and Maxie's knowledge of our playing style allowed the pies to exploit our game plan to beat us for the flag.
Welcome back boys (on conditions)
