Hawks retain AJ Ogilvy for three years

I was hoping Perth could get him as Jawai's replacement but oh well.

Nice for the Hawks. What's the word on where Penney is going?

For those who couldn't be bothered reading, it mentioned Ogilvy's perceived lack of toughness last time he played for the Boomers, some alleged negative comments after he was subsequently not selected and his lack of ability to keep his cool when things get physical, which was on display a number of times this season.

But Isaac thinks there's more to it than that, and he could well know.

Having said all that, there's a decent chance there's a new Boomers coach after Rio so it could well be a moot point in a few months.

I explored some of the AJ-Boomers stuff in this article if anyone's interested/bored:

Lemanis' just didn't seem overly positive when talking about AJ whilst he was commentating a Hawks game last season.

Could it be that Lemanis thinks AJ's potential lack of defense out of the P&R is a liability..then again, he can't be worse than Jawai in that regard.

It's disappointing as I think he could really help the Boomers

I don't think Ogilvy will make the Boomers while Lemanis is making the decisions.

Awesome news for the Hawks. His ability to play NBL then PR means he can make some really good coin while playing at home.

In terms of becoming a Boomer, I think playing under Bevo is the best thing for him, last season was clearly his most consistent as a pro.

apparently this is all go for next season, can anyone enlighten me further, will this be the end for under 20's? will it be the end for reserves?
