Preview Round 17, 2018: Hawthorn v Brisbane Lions, 14 July 2018, 1.45pm @ York Park

[HODGEYROAD]

Hopefully no surprise key outs at the selection table in 90 mins or so.

 

[Fatrollo]

Agreed. we seem to ahve this fascination with shedding weight off every player.

Miles is never going to make it at his current weight. Why not add five kegs to him, see if his body can handle it and if it makes him a better footballer.

Ellis should give you the answer to that.

Some players just can't put on muscle/weight easily. And you don't want to put on weight for the sake of weight, especially if it hinders an aspect of their game that is crucial (usually running capacity/agility).

Hopefully no surprise key outs at the selection table in 90 mins or so.

Here is hoping Howe comes up.

The kid did a number on BottomSmelly last week.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Tipping TOB and Langford will come in for Big Boy and Howe, just to ruin my Thursday night.

 

[MitchHomieQuan]

O’Brien and Whitecross in Ororke and Big boy out

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

JOR injured you *ing kidding me

This caper isn’t for O’Rouke

 

[Baz_hawk]

Don't like them changes.

 

[Nugett]

JOR injured you ruddy kidding me

Abductor doesn’t sound too bad for JOR. Least it’s not his hammies

 

[Dragz]

JOR out of contract at the end of year?

Surely finished if he can’t even make 2 AFL games in a row?

And in other unsurprising news, Timmy O back in the lineup.

Surprised about whitex, maybe we wanted bigger body?

 

[macdaddio]

Maybe Timmy will finally turn the corner this week and kick goals, hold marks and not turn it over when receiving handballs.!

 

[HODGEYROAD]

JOR plays 60% game time in 1 AFL match and gets injured, that's a real shame for him.

 

[Luv_our_club]

I couldn't find these on the HFC website this week.

 

[Hollarmarshall]

JOR slipped and did the splits today at training. Mild groin strain. No risks taken!! I think Langford placed a banana peel at his feet

 

[Dave Id]

Crikey! O'Rourke has been kidnapped !

OUT: Glimpse

 

[Luv_our_club]

This capper isn’t for O’Rouke

caper... abductor.... smells fishy

Last time against the Lions we played all the kids and got smashed.
Whitey the only fit hardened body that could come in and play small.
We've got Mirra and Schoey as talls we could bring in or a bunch of kids
If Langers was ready he probably would have come in ahead of Swiss but he isn't

IN: Glimpses
OUT: Glimpse

“Glimpses do you seem to see of that mortally intolerable truth; that all deep, earnest thinking is but the intrepid effort of the soul to keep the open independence of her sea; while the wildest winds of heaven and earth conspire to cast her on the treacherous, slavish shore?"

 

[Bardo State]

Poor Jono. Can't catch a break. We quite possibly won't see him at AFL level again.

Whitey always seems to be near BOG for Box Hill. Shame that someone like Lovell isn't demanding the spot he has.

 

[Hawkthorn33]

Feel really bad for O'Rourke, this was his chance to get a run of games and now a bloody abductor injury.

Hope it's nothing serious and he gets one last chance to prove his worth or else it's curtains unfortunately

 

[asanque]

Nooooooo, remember to breathe.

JOR out injured again

 

[LRobbo]

The kids were flogged by the Lions last time around. Whitecross ain’t gonna win you a game but he makes very few mistakes.

JOR, sorry son, the body isn’t up to it.
Make way on the list for someone who’s body is.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

In regards to Jonathan it is just the case that some players don't have the genetic makeup to withstand the rigours of AFL whereas others can play 200 games straight without missing a beat.

Not a slight on the lad, just bad luck really.

Big game for Timmy, he wasn't terrible last time he played so hopefully he can keep the upward trajectory (hopefully).
