Game Day Round 6, 2020: Collingwood v Hawthorn, 7.50pm

[Hodginator]

Geelong game?

This is worse

 

[Spursfan]

excuse for intrusion but you getting nothing from the umps. Gunston holding the ball for no attempt, Pendlebury does exactly the same thing and ball up

We're never getting a HTB for the rest of the year I know that much

 

[Brant]

We’re you in a coma in 2017?

I'm hoping, like in 2017, we persist with absolute stupidity until it's too late, then romp home to finish 9th*.

Oh, and like 2019, when we persisted with absolute stupidity then romped home to finish 9th*.





*or 10th or whatever the f***.

8 rubbish quarters in a row. Let’s see if we can make it 9 in row

Day is good.

 

[jr4jane2004]

Team is rubbish game plan sucks. Skills poor. Hopefully we play the young kids for the rest of year. Days been awesome.

 

[Brishawk]

Controlled the ball the whole quarter for 1 point. That just shows you how awful our forward structure is.

None of them can catch it or pick it up off the ground cleanly. It’s not even a structural thing at this point it is simply we can’t win the ball even when we get first hands to it.

 

[hawkeye77]

No just miserable

Is anyone else miserable, but also feeling a little relief that we can't pretend anymore? Our list is poor.

 

[Hot Diggity]

I have seen worse and less competitive Hawthorn sides but I don’t think I’ve seen a less interesting Hawthorn side. We don’t score. We don’t look like scoring. Our team is old. We rolled the dice after 2015 and tried to trade to stay relevant. I agreed with the strategy but the strategy failed

"a less interesting Hawthorn side" - that's what I have been trying to say. There's just nothing to it.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Absolutely zero urgency to press forward. Absolutely zero cohesion.

We’re pretty good at handing the ball back though.

[ImCheatingToWin]

Grundy ran away with the ball on the wing just before 3/4 when we had a 3 on 1 advantage. That's how disinterested we look out there

 

[Mitchell Madness]

We need to seriously reevaluate where we are as a club from the Top down

There's boo e who bleeds brown and gold. Clarko went soft in the earl 2010s, stopped demanding perfection. Players now are individuals with feelings... hell, our captain is a DJ at the most notorious drug club in Melbourne...

 

[WWSD]

Puopolo and Stratton have had wonderful careers but they are well past their best now.

 

[SA HAWK]

When did Scully turn into Billy Hartung?

Scully had 1 decent year and has been ordinary for the rest of it

One of the worst no 1 picks in recent times.

 

[hawkeye77]

This is a flogging as far as this year's results are going

That was one half, this is the entire game.

Have no idea how Collingwood arent flogging us but theres still a qtr to go.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

We haven’t got a CHF, think that is a issue,

That's all down to one Steven Hocking.

 

[cryptor]

The ONLY time we’ve looked good in this game and this entire season is when we’ve moved the ball forward quickly and with purpose. Chipping it around backwards with no intent to convert that into a decisive attacking play is when we’ve looked the least dangerous.

We have plenty of talented players but they’re being stifled with this gameplan. It’s not fun to watch, just frustrating. I imagine it’s the same from a playing perspective. Just look at Wingard - he’s stuck in first gear.

 

[MattRat]

There has to be major changes after tonight. If not, I'll start watching again in 2021.

 

[KOLOKOTRONIS]

Painful viewing. I truly expected a come back after quarter time. Massive reality check...

I will be back next week though. Always hope

[Buzz Hawk]

This may be the worst I’ve ever seen us play

There’s always next week.

 

[HeHateMe]

Is anyone else miserable, but also feeling a little relief that we can't pretend anymore? Our list is poor.

I've been trying to figure out the feeling and you have summed it up here.

 

[Mercy Seat]

Time to drop O’brien. It’s all his fault....
#blinkersoffyet

It was time 2 weeks ago. At least he’s had a crack tonight.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

We haven’t got a CHF, think that is a issue,

Even if we did have leading forwards would we be able to string together 3 possessions to even get it to them?

 

[madhawksfan]

At least they only got 1 goal that quarter. Just gotta have a go when we get the ball. Too often we mark and go back over the mark allowing them to setup. Rather lose by 60 trying to do something than lose by 30 playing this s**t.
