First game I thought we threw the kitchen sink at you but ultimately you were better, second time around I think we were a 5 goal better side for all but 15 minutes :'(

From memory, Melbourne absolutely shredded Geelong for a large portion of the first half but couldn't put it on the scoreboard.

Been the story of our season against good sides, although in the first game it was dealt with fairly easily I thought by the cats, 2nd I thought we played it much better on our terms but alas we came up against a Hawkins playing beast mode.

I never said wed finish the minor premier, only the actual one.

You had +17 I50s, but so do a lot of teams. Look at where our opposition takes their shots at goal from and their scores per I50. Were the league leaders for both

Nice tip but geelong will win and win well. Afterall, we just came within a kick of the favourite for the flag, and the hawks are a mile off

LOL

Surely Geelong in a canter. The only people that rate Hawthorn are delusional Hawk supporters still clinging to glories past.

Hi there evo. :D

No Roughead, Birchall, McEvoy, Sicily and Howe.

Clarkson, what a coaching legend.

On form over the past few months Stanley has been way better than McEvoy, as much as McEvoy may have had the far better career. And while Sicily is a better player than Henderson, that's like comparing Selwood and Duncan - it's not like the inferior of the two is a s**t player

Yeah nah. McEvoy was in AA form if not for two incredible seasons from Gawn and Grundy. Stanley has had a good 5 games. McEvoy has been great all season.

Hawks far too good and like the first game really should have won by more. We came at them again in the final ten minutes after getting out played for the majority of the game.

Deserved winners.

Hawks currently up by 13 at 3qtr time against the Saints. Massive game next week stating the obvious. Hawks could be 3-1 like the Catters, or be 2-2. Either way it will be a massive clash and the Hawks will believe they can beat us on Easter Monday.

Geelong could possibly win this by 100 points

Hawks are in trouble this game, Geelong should win comfortably. Hawthorn depth stretching to the limits with Mitchell, Burgoyne, Shiels, Jaegar, Frawley, Stratton, Cousins all injured. They'd hope at least a couple play for them next week (Jaegar & Stratton?). By rights the Cats mids should tear through them.

You could have at least waited till the final siren to get all excited about a game that will get ugly for Hawthorn.
