Signature Moves

[yirra_kurl]

As i sit here watching the highlights of the grand final I think about how some of these players are going to be looked back as out and out champions. But when explaining to the next generation of the hawk squadron, how will you remember them, what highlight will run through your head as you explain it.

lets talk both present and past day players!

a couple from the now to get the us started.

Jack Gunston, has to be the one-on-one body positioning. he's done it time and time again and really got it down to a fine art. Especially in the days of "hands in the back"

Matt Suckling - the kicking action. The slight lean to the right as he laces the ball of his left.

Luke Hodge - accepting Norm Smith Medals


Enjoy!

[beta_condition]

He couldn't run, he couldn't jump, he couldn't mark above his head but there were none greater least not at Hawthorn ~ Sam Mitchell

 

[Brant]

Why don't you try to describe Cyril's 2009 Goal of the Year in less than 200 words!

 

[seysearles]

The Shotgun - Mark Williams.

The hodge dummy that he flags to the entire stadium yet his opponent falls for it.

Hahahaha! Gotta love the Dermie Strut!

 

[IdiotBox]

The SSS.
Stratton's Saving Screamer.

 

[MightyHawks86]

Burgoyne has two:

1: The old 'step up when I need to and save the match'.
2: Sheer class.

 

[MrFujiMoto]

Burgoyne -"The break glass in case of emergency" last quarters
The Rat - Running towards 50 with his hair flowing a meter behind him
The Dunstall - Licking his fingers and taking a he breath through his piggy nostrils as he walked back to slot a goal
The Dipper dual headlock (Reserved for ugly as f*ck Geelong players)
Conans kick out style, hard to describe but I am sure plenty remember it.

 

[Dewnior]

Birchall - The hunchback crunchsmack

 

[Fists of Love]

Birchall - The hunchback crunchsmack

Steve Johnson at about 15s: "you ****ing campaigner, you're gone for the granny".

There was still a quarter and a bit to go, but he already knew what he was doing that Monday

 

[Del33640]

Hahahaha! Gotta love the Dermie Strut!

I just see Rick Flair every time that's played, Derm pinched it from the then WWF wrestler.

Whoooo!

 

[Del33640]

Steve Johnson at about 15s: "you ******* campaigner, you're gone for the granny".

Got to love:

a) Birch cleaning guys up, which he does deceptively well... and

b) Steve Johnson's ability to concede a game that was probably still on in the minds of his team mates until he let that slip

We have Hodge, Mitchell and Burgoyne along with others to provide leadership when the chips are down.

The Cats have Steve Johnson.

 

[Randy Campbell]

I just see Rick Flair every time that's played, Derm pinched it from the then WWF wrestler.

Whoooo!

Or was it Brutus the Barber Beefcake.

 

[Del33640]

Or was it Brutus the Barber Beefcake.

Derm loved Brutus, but it's definitely Rick The Nature Boy Flair that owns that strut

 

[seysearles]

 

[Gold Member]

Clarko's quad fist signature move from the top rope....

 

[Randy Campbell]

Derm loved Brutus, but it's definitely Rick The Nature Boy Flair that owns that strut

I am thinking of the Dermie strut with the finger scissors.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Cyril does love to slide onto the left when slightly off balance and hit a kick too flat that lands out in front or at the feet of his target. Seen that a million times !!!!

Whoops...

 

[Procrastinator35]

The Huddo Bum & hip out of his opponent.

The 'Barney'' Baulk, where he moves into the space left vacant by the opposition player grasping at thin air!

The Knights 'Speccie'

The Tuck long sleeve shuffle.

The Don Scott 'dummy spit' with mouth guard simultaneously turfed.

The Kel Moore Akimbo.

The Al Martello Wings out formation

The Kennedy Duffle Coat.

The Dipper finger in the air running back to centre after kicking a goal.

The Wallet 20 meter kick around the corner
