Weddle could be the most overrated young player in the comp.

Hawks fans trying to justify spending a bunch of good picks on an average talent.

No Kakuna then?

 

[RonnieRaven]

There he is

 

[WillHayward]

Four goals for Mr Contract Year.

He's a smart business man!

 

[Tas]

Check out the neck on Hustwaite.

We drafted some interesting anatomical case studies.

Kid is a bit of a giraffe. He needs to get on the Gladstone Small no-neck weight programme to even it out a bit.

 

[Daka]

He still has potential to hit levels near his best year of footy - which was actually good. He has attributes and every now and again will read the game well, do something clever or execute a nice piece of skill.

I just can't say any of that about Kozzy, so that's all my upgrade comment meant.

Chol subbed off

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

No Kakuna then?

Certainly no Beedrill

 

[WillHayward]

Essendon have been humbled all over the ground, yet lead. Surely, Hawthorn's kicking to goal reverts to the mean and they run away with the game as it opens up in the last quarter.

Essendon do not deserve to be within 6 goals of Hawthorn. Letting a young bottom 4 team out work them through the middle of the ground is embarrassing. It should be clear that the "real" Essendon is what we saw in the 2nd half of 2023, not the first half.

You're not wrong..

 

[MarcMaverick]

He's a smart business man!

Jake oil salesman.

 

[Plugger35]

That goal keeps the Hawks in it.

 

[blinkd]

He's been a lead commentator for the last couple of years, he isn't bad either, better than a few others working on Ch7.

Lol I haven’t even noticed which wouldn’t surprise the missus. I agree though, Joeys good.

 

[Tas]

Good work by buckets.

 

[Plugger35]

The Hawks butchering another chance there, they just needed to hit Gunston and it was an easy goal.

 

[Daka]

Here come the Hawks!

 

[Plugger35]

The Hawks aren't done with yet, they look to have more run than the Bombers.

 

[Tas]

That was a nice mark.

 

[blinkd]

Great mark

 

[Daka]

That's game, can't see Hawks winning now.

 

[Tas]

15.4, great accuracy.

 

[Zevon]

Wow they poured cold water on that Hawthorn comeback quickly

 

[mrmonkey]

That's game, can't see Hawks winning now.

Still time but bombers always have an answer

 

[Tas]

They are making it sound like it is 50 degrees, it is 29...

 

[Daka]

This match lacked a lot of defense from both sides.

 

[Plugger35]

Gresham finally does something useful.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

The Hawks aren't done with yet, they look to have more run than the Bombers.

kicked ourselves out of it in the first half.

 

[blinkd]

lol what a fist
