It would be quiet funny and ridiculous if they didn't .You mean the same media that basks over Rioli, Hodge, Gunston, Mitchell etc every time they touch the ball?
You can pick a lot as a Hawthorn supporter, but not media hatred.
Anyway, as for height, well, a big body is the width of shoulders, strength in legs, core strength, strong hips. Height doesn't mean whether if you can get the ball or not! I have seen Sam Mitchell close up at training a few times and the bloke is built like a brick, !! Anyway, hawthorn DO have big mids with a bit of height in Lewis, Burgoyne and Hodge.
