Hawthorn have just formally tabled their final offer to Essendon for Zach Merrett.
10, 22, F1 and Henry Hustwaite for Merrett and a 2027 third rounder back.
Hawks donβt have anything else and canβt convince any other players.
Last throw at the stumps.

Correct strategy IF they are resigned to losing him at end of next year. In saying that, Hawthorn's lack of trying to acquire additional draft capital has been bizarre since they don't want to give up a best 22 player.
The Lions have been utterly dominant with Lachie Neale on the field. If it was a gamble then Brisbane came up trumps. Never doubt Chris Fagan. #AFL#AFLGrandFinal
