Round 8 2015: Hawthorn vs Sydney - MCG

[jerry springer]

Great game between 2 fantastic team's

 

[dread and might]

Better then Riewoldt, Armitage, Bruce and Steven then? On his current form? Seriously? Drinking tonight then?

alright, maybe a bit of a stretch...., anyway keep hating

 

[The King!]

The only game that you can play and that matters is the one just done. Swans won. No ifs or buts will change that.

It's football and its why we keep coming back

Very true

But id rather have the win you got in the last 2

Its a bloody ride though hey as a fan

HOW ARE THEY STILL TALKING ABOUT RIOLI IN THE POST MATCH EVEN THOUGH THEY LOST?

 

[BoxMatrix]

The commentators are still jerking off to Rioli. Prefer to see his fumble when he ran into an open goal.

 

[NitroFan]

do fumbles show up on the stat sheet, bt?

 

[rdhopkins2]

Only the second time in his career that Buddy has been held scoreless. Yet Hawks can't do enough to win.

Again credit to Sydney but Hawthorn their own worst enemy.

 

[The King!]

Before every neutral calls Tippett a spud i would think 2 goals in a low scoring affair is at least a pass

So not sure darcy saying no influence is accurate

And keep your blinkers on too moron, if you would have gone back to my previous post in this thread you would have seen I gave your team all the credit for the win. But nah you Sydney folk can only see the negatives....win or lose.

And he is the reason they lost

Yep.
It's all about what is happening at the moment, though no supporters would trade past glories for present home and away wins. You play the game in front of you and win or lose, that's what makes it fun.
And tonight Swans fans are happy - enjoy

Didn't read the whole thread sorry mate. Calm down.

 

[Hawkers]

lol - no he isn't.

 

[PetterdHoisted]

Once again s**t starts have costed us.

the s**t end cost you tonight just as much. All Rioli has to do is the most trivial act in the game, a handball receive! He may already have been basking in glory of the goal in his mind, was very much enjoying the adulation earlier in the game.

HFC not having the luck in close ones, saving it up for prelims I guess!

Luke Parker

"Was worried I'd fumble it or spray it."
"Would be pretty embarrassing if we lost the game that way"

That is priceless.

Enjoy your win brother, hopefully somewhere warm and toasty

Seriously though, Rioli is a great player and I'd love him at the Swans, but the commentary that surrounds him is just awful. Takes an uncontested mark between two Swans players and it's some incredible feat of human skill (nevermind the player who actually put the kick in between the two players).

Have to wonder if there's something else about it.

It is what you get for listening to channel 7 commentary. And what else could there be? I have read some dumb things on this site. But this takes the cake.

 

[Theprofessional]

Shoulder on shoulder... what

 

[Lord Eddard]

It'd look like sour grapes if we lost but geez the umps were on the Hawks tonight.

We got a terrible HTB decision our way in the last quarter but everything else from quarter time on went to the Hawks.

I felt their petty umpiring slowed down what could have been a great game.

 

[dread and might]

Seriously the general hatred for Rioli and Goodes on this site is ridiculous

 

[The King!]

Sam mitchell makes the game slow down he has so much time and poise with the ball, played a different game to most on the ground

 

[Millky95]

Yes they missed shots but bad kicking is bad football. We missed some too. So proud of the boys to win that one. Could be the difference between top 4 or top 2. Umping got a bit interesting at times but overall pretty fair.

Glad I don't have to put up with their post game s**t on fox.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

HOW ARE THEY STILL TALKING ABOUT RIOLI IN THE POST MATCH EVEN THOUGH THEY LOST?

Because he played very well? What, you just want them to talk about the Swans the whole time?

The odd one was stopping play to warn grundy
