I honestly think that if Cam Sutcliffe were playing B Hill's role for Hawthorn, he'd do it better. They're statistically very similar, despite the fact Cam is fighting manfully out of position as a defensive backman, and Brad is running around unmarked. For all the talk of Cam's kicking he's statistically a better kick, and nothing I've seen of Brad dissuades me from that view.
He's a worse version of Chad Fletcher - looks good on a great team, would look ordinary in a bad one.
If I was confident we were going to be good next year, and we could get him for cheap, I'd take him in a heartbeat. But I'm not sure either of those things are true, so the best course would be to wait until he's out of contract.
Plus, Hawthorn might turn a blind eye to things like his assault charge, but if that sort of thing happens here the media would crucify him, and we'd probably suspend him for half the season. It might be in his best interests to stay at Hawthorn.
