You missed out then dave....they were a maniacal running team, full of aggression and as the years went on they just got more and more Lethal. They had fantastic forwards who killed sides with skill but also terrorised defenders physically. They intimidated, broke sides down and then destroyed them. Essendon under Sheedy matched them for a few years physically but the fact that the Hawks continued to dominate from late 70's through the 80's and into the 90's says so much about their culture. The ramble they give Dermie when they introduce him on the footy show goes something like "the five time day-five time night premiership player" and he was only one of them!
