Autopsy Nab Challenge: Match 1 - Hawthorn vs Collingwood (Feb 26 Aurora Stadium) - autopsy from page 18

A good barometer of how much that result means to me is that I just caught myself whistling the Collingwood club song.

Shameful

Who's going to start the "Where are we at?" roast thread?

Take a team of headless chooks, add hodge, mitchell, burger, rough, gibbo, lake

No problem.

Theyre obviously a few years off taking over the leadership though

Jed Anderson looks impressive. Tough, skilled and makes good decisions. A lot to like about him.

Pretty painful to watch really. The difference between today and winning a premiership a few months ago is quite something. I guess it puts our up and coming players into a bit of perspective. Not quite as good as the pre-season training has had us believe.

Relax. We had two thirds of the premiership side sitting it out. And the rest were going at half rat power.

Agree that we shouldn't be so quick to assume premiership stars will be playing box hill. They are premiership players for a reason.

Anderson the only one to look like pushing for a spot.

Not much thought put into this post, crazy
Our up & comers ? If any team plays 12 up & comers in the 1 team, they are going to struggle

Speculation and hope has turned into reality, Anderson is bloody brilliant

 

[Southern Urchins]

Let's see the Lewis mafia defend his unseen performance tonight....

 

[Ram-Man]

Wasn't too much to like about that ... Anderson , Langford , Mitchell , McEvoy , get ticks ... the general ball use was deplorable ... anyway onwards and upwards hey ...

GO HAWKS !!

 

[Ned Ryerson]

You can tell we didn't care about winning tonight - Spangher didn't play.

Don't forget Hill...

Ok, so didn't even bother putting the game on the Tele.. McEvoy had 3 hitouts, didn't play in the ruck? Anderson is going to be a star!

Very tough watching the first match of the preseason. Everyone looks pretty flat and sloppy.

Anderson looked good and will obviously only get better with match fitness

The new guys looked a bit nerve struck but hopefully that was a cobweb blowout for them and they get another chance to impress. Miles impressed me. Found the ball a far bit.

McEvoy played more of a key position role. Ceglar and I think Pittonet taking most of the ruck duties.

It is quite catchy.

So is syphallis

Don't forget Hill...

And birch, smith, Lewis, Cyril ....

They jumped out to over $3 today with a 23.5pt line. Missed out on that though
Must be some punters who lost some serious coin tonight for the Pies to drift that badly.
We were never gonna win this, madness!

I understand, but its the pre-season syndrome I comment on. You get all excited about the prospects, then realise there is still a way for a bunch of these blokes to go.

Jed!

Few youngsters i wanted to play well didnt but whatever...

Frawley may take all this year to un-melbourne

Jed!

 

[bungholes_premiers]

if you're the glass half empty type, u might be wondering where we'll be when Mitch, Hodge, Lewy and Burger finish up... worse, if they finish at the same time...

Of course they have a long way to go in their development, we can still get excited about the little things these new players have shown already. Weather that be on the training track or out on the ground
