Jono O'Rourke to Pies?

[Pies4shaw]

Graham Wright (of Hawthorn, of course) has been on trade radio this morning. This is reported from the interview

'1:12pm: Wright has also added:

....

- The club still has room in its salary cap to make further moves including acquiring GWS midfielder Jono O'Rourke (who is also in the sights of St Kilda and North Melbourne) who he confirmed the club was interested in. "At this stage I don't think he's chosen where he wants to play so we haven't spoken to GWS yet." '

Has anyone even seen this guy play? 9 games in 2 seasons...injured?

Never even heard of him til now. Don't give a shit if was a 1st round or 2nd round pick. Has shown nothing to no one to prove he is worth anything.

Worth 3rd round, even if that.

Well said. Completely unproven at this level. Being bid for based on his draft pick order.

While this is very true he's only been in the system 2 years and has had some injury issues.

Every chance he still could come good and live up to the promise that saw him taken at pick 2.

The hawks don't waste there time on duds and this could end up being another Gunston type steal.
