Preview Hawks vs Dockers - Teams, Preview, Bartos & Gameday Thread **** It all happens here

[Flamin Joe]

Buddy leads in the forward 50, goal. Genius.

 

[Dr Awkward]

Geez you blokes are giving up easy. I admit it looks bad but you still aren't out of it.

 

[Philhawk]

We are slipping, fumbling and dropping easy marks. **** this. Half of thrum need to be traded

 

[Philhawk]

Might as well ask, but has Bateman done anything this year? At all?

 

[spudmaster]

Guerra, retire now.

Agreed. Not just for that dropped mark then, but he has had far too many of those lately and seems to **** it up and turn it over far too often. He's becoming a liability.

Old with the old/past their use by dates, and in with the new while the likes of rioli, franklin are still young and players such as hodge/mitchell still have a couple of years of hopefully good footy left.

hodge def not fit - just grabbed his knee after that stoppage

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

Some of the posts in this thread are seriously pathetic.

Arrogant too.

Rotations will kill us in the final quarter even if we do somehow manage to get within a decent margin

Guerra, retire now.

Agree. Always frustating the hell out of me. He is shocking.

 

[BuddysBiggestFan]

Hodge is injured. ****en Clarko talking him up like he was 100% during the week.

 

[ilmc]

Guerra has been a concern of mine for the whole year - don't want him to do a Brad Johnson and go on too long.

I think Roughie tried his best to miss!

 

[Messenger]

Guerra, retire now.

Guerra has had a very good season. Wanting him to retire on the basis of a dropped mark or an errant kick is crazy stuff.

 

[croady_fan24]

Ellis back on? Thats good to see.

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

Where are all the Roughy bashers? Playing a lone hand up there at the moment.

Wont be enough but he's been far from pathetic

 

[bigbuddyboy]

So going on this year, this game, and age would we be in a better position next year say if we traded away aggressively. I'm thinking goo, bateman, laddo, ozzy and MAYBE a sewell for 1 or 2 BIG NAMES and then let kids like shiels/savage/peterson/hooper/bruest develop?

Thoughts? I'd be undecided on a strategy like this, but it's just some food for thought.

 

[Thorgils]

We are getting donkey licked by a team of school kids . Hodge is letting a spud like mcphee run around getting easy kicks. As has been said before "Do something"

Yeah McPhee is giving him the run around but it looks like Hodge knee is completely stuffed, look at the way he's moving. Not the I'm making excuses for him but he looks less then cherry ripe IMO

I suspect you're right. Once again Hawks have not been upright about the status of their players. Can't blame them for that tho.

Hodge has not been the player he has been for the last month or so. I think he's been carrying this knee injury for a while now. Scotched his Brownlow. Put money on Swan.

 

[Dr Awkward]

I think that will be offset by the fact Freo have a lot of young players and Freo choke factor.

 

[BuddysBiggestFan]

Roughead, doing his best to miss easy goals again.

 

[CM Sean]

C'MON HAWKS! need to win this (yes I barrack for Melbourne, but I'm riding the Hawk's bandwagon into the finals, hope you guys take the lot! )

Exactly. Not the best day for the Hawks board today.

About time. Been too many apologists over the weeks.

Indeed. I have a feeling it will be a long evening.

 

[Cleavy]

McPhee kicking a goal. As if we haven't had enough salt poured into the wounds today
