Cam Bairstow in advanced talks with Hawks

6'9"” at best, what you do in the past has nothing to do with present, never been the same since injury. Illawarra are getting players other clubs don’t want, they had bett have two gun imports

I guess we are all entitled to our opinions.

Standing right next to Jacob Epperson, he is the exact same height and Epperson is a legit 6'11.

He was coached by Flinn. I don't think any of the Hawks Australians looked any good last season.

You are right about his injury though. It's hard to develop when you are injured.

Goorjian will push him like he has never been pushed before (physically and mentally) and will learn a hell of a lot about the game.

Time will tell.

He is slow and overrated. I hope for the Hawks sake this deal fails.

Slow? At 6'11 he is not exactly slow.

As for overrated, how much of his career have you followed of this 20 year old?

Just last season?

He was a star junior (on the national and international level)

He needs time and a coach that will develop him, so that he is ready to take on the big guns of the league.

I'm confident Goorj will take him to a new level

Froling is good but is he good enough to start

I honestly believe Goorj will develop Froling into a stud (providing he does re-sign with the Hawks)

Will Sam Froling be signing elsewhere?

Still a good signing if true.

The fear was through contract opt outs salary cuts and retirements the talent would diminish in this league.

It looks more like an upwards direction to be honest!
