Game Day 2nd Preliminary Final - Hawthorn v Port Power, 4.45pm

[Dixie Flatline]

Less than 12 hours until the first bounce in the second preliminary final of 2014. The gauntlet has been thrown down by the Swans who were far too good for the Kangaroos. The AFL engravers are already putting the final touches on the cup to be presented to the Bloods captain.

But we will not go quietly. This is our home patch. This is our destiny. Nobody remembers you if you lose a preliminary final. So let's remind the footballing public that we are a damned good team ourselves. Go Hawks!

 

[Taskmaster]

Over the next 2 weeks we will show the rest of the world why we are the very best!!! Throw at us what you will, but nothing will stop us going down in history with B2B for the mighty HFC!!

 

[Harper_Hawk]

Its time Hawks.

 

[Tuck In]

We will not be diverted from our aim. We will not shirk the challenge. We are Hawthorn and winning is what we do.

 

[Cyril the Squirrel]

Pay the Price.

 

[Changa10]

Thank god it's game day!

C'mon Hawks

 

[Rookie Error]

What's everyone up to today? Any games on?

 

[Back Pocket Rocket]

Thank God it's gameday. Sickening over here in SA with all the 'yes we ken', 'never tear us apart', 'SS Victory' and 'we will never give up'!

There is a very good reason why I've had an Adelaide media ban on myself all week. Unfortunately I broke it on Thursday & watched the ABC news to find out the teams. Silly me, they talked about the unchanged Port team & apart from the line "preliminary final with opponent Hawthorn" there was no mention whatsoever about us, the team we'd selected, whether or not Rioli was listed, nothing.

The Scott Morrison approach to information is not what I "pay my 8c a day for".

Apart from that, GO HAWKS!!! ALL THE WAY!!!

There's just as many silly phrases over here if this thread is any indication...

Anyone read dermies article in the Sun? Best piece he's written all year! He was the only guy to predict the North flogging and his article today was brilliant. Sometimes Derm comes through with the some good knowledge and sensible data, his improved the back end of the season.

 

[TazHawk15]

It's time.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

This could be my last day here.

It won't be though

 

[JoeHawk]

Saturday at last. Mentally tough day at work yesterday. My head was already sitting in the grandstand. Was to hard focus.

Feeling good. Expecting a much tougher encounter than last nights bruise free game. Hopefully the weeks rest will do us well and fatigue sets in for port like it hit the roos last night.

 

[Gunstall555]

Gunston to kick 6 - he loves beating up on SA clubs.

 

[grumbleguts]

Given the difference in personnel, from our last meeting, we should eat them alive.

 

[HawksILove]

C"mon hawks, 2 more wins left and the silverware is yours

Surprisingly, johnsons was good too

 

[Argy]

Please Hawks! Obliterate the memories of 2012.

 

[cyrilicious]

Pay the price!

You mean the two paged article titled "How to Beat Hawthorn" that doesn't actually mention how to beat Hawthorn?

 

[Off The Couch]

Let's go hawkers - right from the start, all of you to do a Brian lake and keep the hold for an entire 4 quarters.
