Round 22: Hawthorn vs Brisbane - Aurora Stadium

[Hollow Knight]

Hard to get a form line on the hawks in tassie these days. As can be seen, they can scunge a win through familiarity

Have won your last 14, and your last 5 by 50+ points.

Pretty clear form line.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Fev.

I recognise the name but can't see its relevance to what we are discussing. Try again maybe?

 

[Toffee Lion]

100+ incoming.

Boys know the first quarter is what they'll need to bring next year, probably given up for today.

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

Cyril, what a champion he is.

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

Refreshed, was almost certain i was half a minute behind.

 

[hawkman]

It would be in Hawthorn's interest to lose this. 4th is better than 3rd. Freo is an easier week 1 opponent than West Coast.

Freo aren't guaranteed top spot

 

[Smithdogmaddog]

Fev.

West, Lisle, Fevola, Raines

All traded for decent draft picks that I would argue if u had invested in the draft with those picks you'd be in a better position. Brisbane actually have drafted well even with later picks and have been unlucky with players wanting to leave.

Lack of key forwards, poor trading decisions, mature age recruit named Fev. You can't figure out the relevance.

I see.

So which gun forwards would we have got with those picks in the forties that we used on West and Raines?

 

[Mningasimisonda]

Just saw the scoring graph. Hawks are going to win by 200 if they keep scoring at this rate.

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

We really miss Hodge and Mitchell.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Hard to believe 12 years ago it was us doing the Hawks by 100+

I just hope we don't have to wait another 12 years, I feel with Free Agency in effect that it's going be more difficult to climb back to the top and easier for clubs like Hawthron to benefit from FA and stay up longer.

Such is modern AFL.

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

Roughy with 2.

 

[Pessimistic]

Has Frawley just shut off shoeys opportunity as a tall half forward ?

 

[The 747]

It's not in any teams interest to lose. Losing is a habit, you should be aware of that through following your team.

 

[DERIBERATE]

Bloke called Crameri goes alright. Went in the 40s... of the rookie draft

 

[HawkMongrel]

Mongrel pls.

In that first quarter they called play on 3 times for kicks over 20m but then gave us a mark for a kick that went about 4 ffs.

 

[Pessimistic]

I'm going to try a new tack with suckers. Start calling him Matty S. Try to get some cult status going, he might get forgiven some off beat stuff

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

Oh no, Lake.

 

[Handsuper47]

It would be in Hawthorn's interest to lose this. 4th is better than 3rd. Freo is an easier week 1 opponent than West Coast.

It would be in Hawthorn's best interest to not promote tanking. Besides, you make it sound like Fremantle have top spot wrapped up when they can still lose it.

 

[Kram]

Decent goal Robinson.

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

lol

 

[StevenwellerHFC]

Billy!

 

[Rich]

Could be one of the most lacklustre last quarters for the year.

It's already deteriorated quite badly. The umpires have given up.

 

[Toffee Lion]

What are these play ons?

Ball is going 20m+?

Hawks had one go 5 metres and got called a mark.
