Hi guys
This basically just a general query about the club. Reasons for this is my young fella is starting uni at Latrobe and his old footy coach got him a gig there (we're from Darwin). So far the club has been incredibly generous basically sponsoring him to play.
So is there anybody out there...
I like this bloke and reckon that he would slot into the hawk line seamlessly. Imagine him and Langers causing absolute KAOS to opposition midfielders.
Thoughts
Ladies and gentlemen,
I cant get to the game tomorrow as I live across the other side of OZ. But lets go into this game, not only those that will be there but all those that will not, that we will win. An 80's feel should be a pre requisite for all HFC supporters.
NO DOUBTS
NO MISGIVINGS
WE ARE...
I love our backline - have for a few years, always goes hard and tries its guts out. Our midfield however and forward line cannot kick or hand ball under pressure. We really look like a bunch of under twelves with turn over after turn over under pressure.
For a team of elite elite kickers if...
Why is it we take our foot off the gas in the the third quarter. All this year we have led up until this time and basically lost that quarter. It seems 20+ points up and we take our foot off the accelerator.
Any Thoughts?
Look
I have been as critical as anyone but regardless what happens throughout the season what are you going to do as a supporter:
a) Burn your membership or not barrck for Hawthorn Again
b) Continue to whinge like a gut shot pig
c) Grin and bear it and know that you barrack for a quality...
What happened to our unsociable football? I just dont think that the hardness is there anymore. We used to scare teams now we are just another opponent. I realise that we cannot turn the clock back to 2008 as the game has changed a bit, but we dont get in the face of the opposition anymore...
Unfortunately guys I honestly belive that we do not have a 22 that are all on the same page. Our senior players are becoming selfish and not consistently performing over the four quarters. It seems when ever we get in front by 20 odd points we have have done enough (last week and last year as...
Hi Gang
I thought that there are a few good Collingwood Jokes around (excluding the actual team) so I thought i would start a thread on it.
So here's my fav.
One day little Jonny and his sister Tanya were doing some xmas shoplifting at a sports store in town.
Jonny saw this fantastic...
Been out bush (barra fishing actually) but I have just watched Saturdays game.
My observation is that if Cheney is not the Ranga twin of Guerra the way he plays footy I will go he for tiggy. By the way I absolutely love Brent Guerra, if I was gentically able I would have his kids.:D
I dont know about you lot but tucker time in my household is a pretty big deal. Two teenage kids both me and the Mrs work full time so Dinner for us is pretty special - that and I love to cook and if I left it to the Mrs we would all be malnourished.
So for this thread (since we have numerous...
Gang
I'm off to the footy all the way from Darwin (crazy I know), with family in tow. Because I am with the trouble and strife and tin lids is there a pub in town where a man can get a quite drink with other hawk supporters without the stress :p
Now don't get me wrong Collingwood are a good side but for the life of me what does the the bikie lover bring to the table. He's lucky to get 10 touches a game, is selfish and is starting to break down whenever the pies are under the pump.
Neon Leon has found a way to rejuvinate himself but...
Jesus Essendon. The upmires tried to gift you the game but you were still terrible. You were beaten by first year kids.
Definately not the scum I know:eek:
I would just like to offer my best to the indig boys that the hawks now have in the team. From one of the worst teams to draft them we now lead the way with a few others. 2008 probably would not have happened with out them.
Coming from Darwin and seeing these boys play along side my son whos...
Hi gang
After last year we were all disapointed in our young fellas not developing enough (or so it seemed). LC has come on board and I read that he was specifically targeted for the developement of the younger brigade.
From what we have seen so far ie: awesome improvement from the young...
I put a post out a few years ago and got shittcanned. But I do not care Roughy needs to go back. I dont care what peolple say; he has the closing speed and all the other attributes to play there. As Mark McLure and Stan Alves said ( and I respect their opinion more than anyone on the board), he...
If that is the best you have you are in for a bloody long season. Talk about as weak as s**t against a team of kids. I now know C Judd is not worth the steam off Luke Hodge's s**t, he is the biggest dodger god ever put breath into.
When you come up against teams that can play you will have...
I do
Its like the guy that lives across the road from me. He has a housing commision home, doesnt work, his kids dont go to school and he is always fixing cars and motorbikes etc and selling them on the street all for tax free profit ontop of his dole or dodgy invalid pension. The bloke is a...
Hi Gang
Just thought I would put it out there to remember your memberships. I know its early and some people will struggle but if you can stash 10-20 bucks away per week you will have one of thje greatest treats money can buy.
I personally think that 2011 is going to be huge get on board...
Geez our backline is solid at the moment.
Statton - WOW if he is not Chris Mew's love child I'll go he for tiggy
Murph - Shove it up your ### those that bagged him - him and Stratton are our best marks in the team
Guerra - recycle player of the century LOVE HIM
Gilham - How often does...
Hi Gang
I am travelling to Melbourne tommorow to see my first live game of footy (Friday night)) since round 17 2008 against the cats. I walked away from that match knowing we could beat Geelong in the last dance. I had the same feeling then as I have now.
Things are turning folks I can feel...
Hi Gang
I have stayed out of the disscussions of late about how bad we are performing. (to a degree I had a crack at Laddo). But here is my take;
Clarko got the best out of the team in 2008 - result FLAG
Some of the lynchpins were not stars but played an important part in that last day in...
Bit late gang but i just watched the game against the Bullies (been out bush). Seriously Renouf was brilliant. He went off and the Bullies went mad in the third (he beat two opponents). Goo was also brilliant. These guys are seriously my grunt indicators and underestimated.:thumbsu:
Hi guys/girls
Im a product of the sixties - yep an old fart to some. After reading this forum for a number of years and the news effecting footy in general I have come to the conclusion that we getting to the stage that we are looking for reasons to lose more than reasons to win. Some of the...
