Nope, this one mattered.
My Uncle went to when he was a young man and it he took the loss hard.

They had memberships in the 1940's

Not the same sort that they do now, my understanding is you could be a member of the club or the ground or both, I think the current type of membership came about in the early 80s.

Of course they did. The top tier packages came with a bonus 25% off at the local Glenferrie blacksmiths for when you needed your horse re-shoed.

Here's one of those games that Hawthorn supporters say don't count, don't matter, totally irrelivant etc etc.
Could any Hawthorn supporter please explain why.
I know one of the excuses is " you didn't win it ". Any other excuses.

I wasn't born? I can't name more than a handful of players who played in that game, and most of those would be guesses.

 

[Hoooops]

"I didn't see it so it didn't happen!"

 

[A Cut Above]

"I didn't see it so it didn't happen!"

I guess you won't have a problem acknowledging Leigh Matthews as the undisputed GOAT even though you didn't see his career then.

You saw 2008 but apparently that never happened did it?

What is it about clubs where Dank had an active input and financial losses?

How about no?

Sure. 2009 wouldn't have been nearly as good without 2008. "Happiness only exists side by side with sadness," etc.

Awwww don't worry we hawks still hate you drugcheats...
We will get back to shitfighting with you again in a couple of decades when you are less crap.

Pigs arse it would've been shed loads better as it would've meant a 3peat in the professional era. You wouldn't believe how good that feels.

What a crock of shit.

 

[Gunstall555]

What a crock of shit.

Yep, 2013 didn't make up for 2012 for any of us Hawks. The 2014 grand final was the sweetest ****ing day ever though. Geelong will never get that type of redemption.

Lucky we have real lives and actual personal achievements to give our lives meaning.

Just because you lost interest after the 2008 debacle doesn't mean the rest of us did. Why do I feel like I need a nap?

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Just went down to the club to cancel my 30 odd year membership... We still have our 16 premierships proudly displayed on one of the stands

How about you Hawfies?

Lol. That club has more premierships in its history than yours... And less wooden spoons... And that's embarrassing.

FMD.

Your club is so embarrassed about it's history it's making shit up! Remarkable!

Telling everyone how great you where when it didn't matter is somehow so apt today still!

Reminds me of gloating about H&A wins

You blokes keep melting over facts, it's entertaining.

Kinda like you and the fact that Gary Ablett played most of his footy at full forward.

 

[2DMB]

Yep, I'm making shit up...

You blokes keep melting over facts, it's entertaining.

I won't waste my time checking your 'facts" congratulations on being recognised by the AFL as being the team with the most premierships! I'm sure you wouldn't clutch at a history that no one else recognises, simply to alleviate your clubs shameful record.

It must be far less embarrassing than having less than 10. Well done
