This is going off memory but...

NT zone selection from GWS, would have gone mid twenties if he'd gone in the National Draft.

Inside player but bobs up for the occasional goal as well. He'll fit right in at Hawthorn being a left footer as well. Really good get (although I don't know what you gave.)

mid/ forward, supposed to be a really good player, and mentally tough as well.

Here's a little bit of info from my rookie thread -

I was predicting he'd be selected some time in the second round so I think we've done okay from that deal.

Im very very happy to see him join the club, have heard good things of him and know we effiectvely get 2 picks in the top 30 as he is a top 30 pick i feel
And Spagnher isnt the worse trade, he is depth

jed anderson sounds good another left footer, might be the one to fill the shoes of hodge when he retires. spangher will also be good, lacked oppitunity at swans and eagles standing at 193cm and 90kg could be some one to take lakes place when he retires after losing Gilham.

Used to play with him in under 12s and have been following his career since. Had a scholarship with GWS in its inaugural NEAFL year before coming home to Darwin at the end of last year. Small lefty who has a good jump (used to play in the ruck despite being one of the shortest in the team) and tackles hard. Older brother Joseph was on carlton's list a few years ago and I think he played a few games.
