I feel we have named our bench in the first four on the extended bench.

 

[Dewnior]

Mirra Mirra on the ball.

Who's the best and fairest of them all?

 

[Bugs1977]

This is how I hope we line up on Sunday.

B: Hardwick, Frawley, Scrimshaw
HB: Sicily, Mirra, Stratton
C: Smith, Cousins, Scully
HF: Impey, Gunston, Wingard
F: Breust, Roughead, Puopolo
R: McEvoy, Worpel, O’Meara
INT: Henderson, Ceglar, Moore, Morrison

In: Wingard, Mirra, Moore
Out: Burgoyne, Shiels, Nash

I would expect to see any combination of Scully, Henderson, Impey, Morrison, Smith and Wingard roll through the middle to spell Worpel, O’Meara and Cousins. This is why I think brining Mirra back into the team is the right move as it allows Impey who I feel will be the guy that has his midfield minutes now upped over the coming 3-4 weeks until Shiel and Burgoyne recover. I also echo what everyone else has said that Burgoyne's days as a utility should come to an end and he should just be played solely as a HF or HB.

Just my 2 cents. Lets go

 

[MinerBoy]

Ah stuff it, Hawks by 47

 

[Garf]

Ah stuff it, Hawks by 47

I'll raise you one and say Hawks by 48 !

 

[MinerBoy]

I'll raise you one and say Hawks by 48 !

Shall happily stand corrected.

 

[MinerBoy]

Would love a good win though with Ben Brown not touching the ball at all. Life's too short to have to endure that muppet's 45 minute run up every time he has a shot.

 

[Changa10]

Flying over for this one. Can't wait to yell so much that I can't talk Sunday night.

I hate this mob, almost as much as I hate *

ROUND 3 TEAM
Hawthorn v North Melbourne

Sunday 7th April, 3.20pm AEST

B: Blake Hardwick, James Frawley, Jarman Impey
HB: Harry Morrison, James Sicily, Ben Stratton
C: Isaac Smith, James Cousins, Ricky Henderson
HF: Jarryd Roughead, Conor Nash, Chad Wingard
F: Luke Breust, Jack Gunston, Paul Puopolo
R: Ben McEvoy, James Worpel, Jaeger O’Meara
INT: Jack Scrimshaw, David Mirra, Tom Scully, Jonathon Ceglar

In: Wingard, Mirra
Out: Shaun Burgoyne (hamstring), Liam Shiels (hamstring)

 

[WWSD]

I think Impey might spend some time in the midfield.

Scully will be better then last week.

Looking forward to seeing Wingard in action.

Another game for Cousins, Scrimshaw and Nash.

The only thing that will erase last weeks shocker is a big win against North Melbourne.

 

[Mrzohs]

Two changes I was expecting!

One thing I notice thou if you look at the bench it is two guys that can only play in defence mirra,scrimshaw and a ruckmen i am surprised there wasn't more changes especially a few more mids.

I'm with the previous post I expect to see impey played in the middle perhaps breust, I wouldn't mind seeing moore brought in and breust asked to play more midfield if he is reluctant to bring in the younger mids.

 

[amofootyfan]

Can someone please explain why Nash is:
1. getting a game
2. not being played down back where he can learn to play (most Irish recruits start down back)
He was totally ineffectual last week and im not sure what his role is

 

[Simon Crawshay]

Pretty Conservative changes, typical of Clarko. Nash would want to have a decent game this Sunday though.
Also somewhat dissapointed Brand didn't get a look in but I guess his position is where we are currently strong (backline).

I love this short bio of Crawshay

"
In a decade littered with some terrible rucking prospects, Crawshay stands tall as the very worst of the bunch.

Tall and solidly built, Crawshay had the tools to be a force in AFL football. However, he displayed absolutely no inclination towards the physical side of the game, and his ruckwork was average at best and pitiful at worst.

He somehow eked out 19 games in three seasons, the best of which was in a great win down at Geelong in 1995. Deservedly delisted at the end of 1996, Crawshay played some good football in the SANFL thereafter. "

Thought id put that in for some of the youngsters that have not heard of him

The" Crawsh" was going to be my secret weapon in The Age supercoach team of 1994 (based on one solid pre season match).

Oh boy, not my best work (should have just picked Stynes like everyone else).

Still have a soft spot for the big unit though, not sure why. Maybe it is the permed blonde mullet?

 

[OnceKicked50]

I feel the next month really is the time for Impey to step up. He has had a year in our system now, 23 years of age, 101 games to his name. I was, am, super excited when we recruited him, clarko talked him up as one that could get to an A-grader. This is now the time for him, no Silk, no Pup. We need him to roll through the middle, and impact games for longer. I hope he has been given a bit of a fire up.

 

[HolyRioli]

I have a sneaky feeling Moore may get a gig this week. None of the other inclusions make sense

Dammit

 

[Turtles all the way down]

Dammit

Moore is on the wing?

No, Morrison the half back.

 

[COKEandCOLA]

Dammit

Might get a crack against the Saints mate.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

Mirra

Damn that is some good stuff by Mirra

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Do north have a big forward line or is it just Brown?, judging by the Mirra selection Clarko isn't overly concerned about it.

 

[Hawk_francais]

The addition of Wingard makes us so much more dynamic in the forward half.

Win lose or draw it's exciting to see him, Scully, Omeara all out there together.
