Toast Hawthorn have headf***ed everyone

[Off The Couch]

It’s actually not a bad mix of age that we have
Think we had 5 players around 21 and less and then 7 that were above 30 and the rest in between

so maybe it’s not age but quality

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Did Ralph want Clarkson to say “we’re going to just name players, regardless of merit”?

 

[Hot Diggity]

It seemed to be King pushing the cats barrow more than Gerard.
Robbo repeatedlt pushing for Mew was good to see.

Chris Mew was a total gun, and the most underrated player in history.

No, Ralph and all the other football experts want Clarko to defer to their superior football strategies on game play, recruiting and selection. That he doesn't conform makes them look silly. Especially when we win flags.

Mew was not underrated by anyone who saw him play and knows a bit about football.

Just another from Ralphy. Dickhead

imagine being a s**t kicker #mediaflog and calling the greatest modern day coach a ‘cockroach’.

seriously just imagine

 

[Kil Phearns]

I have little time for Jon Ralph (or anyone in the media for that matter), but cockroach is rhyming slang for coach.

 

[Hot Diggity]

Sadly he was, and sadly not many know much about footy.

Hawks fans from that era know how good he was. Yet all I hear these days when it comes to great defenders is Rance, Scarlett, Silvagni, Jakovich et al.

Sad not many remember how good he was, and how crucial he was to the greatest spine in the history of the game.

I reckon AFL should slap him with something, anything. For bringing the Game into disrepute

I’m pretty sure that’s a nickname because if I recall both Tazz and Mitch have used it at some time

Nicknames are okay fro people you have commonality with. They are absolutely off limits in this instance and he should be embarrassed

Really? Can you think of any? They’d be lucky to have spoken a handful of times in the past 5 years. Ralph’s too busy on his social media smacking Clarko. Just go back a few weeks to see how he tried to create news himself. The guy is vermin

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Assuming it's a typo/autocorrect from Ralph.

But he's not wrong. Again we've had two forced changed and brought back the oldest player in the comp for one of them.

Clarko has said repeatedly he's going to play the kids. He promised changes after last week's embarrassment, but only one player has been "managed."

He's been talking sideways out of his mouth.

Worpel is an established first team player and I'd argue that Scrimshaw is too.

Nash, Day, CJ and Glass. These are the "kids." Hopefully we persist with them.

I am not convinced about Ceglar’s toe injury. He will
Play next week

Clarko trolling Australia again - stating that we'll pick players on their merit!

Clarko's just in it for the lolz

Yes, and a kid will get dropped for him. Scully too.

Nah I recon we will rotate The rucks.

Are we in a Guy Ritchie movie?

can any of these hopeless conflicted campaigners at least try to be professional.

they’d have more credibility if they imitated the reporting on Anchorman

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Remember when Clarko said Geelong were no good? Whoops.

stop being a drama queen - you are well aware in what context that was said

He's headfarqed me with that comment.

 

[eldorado]

He's headfarqed me with that comment.

That's not what he meant at all.

He was talking about our guys throwing in the towel at half-time, to make the second half one way traffic.

"Geelong are good...but they're not that good"

It was a comment about our effort, not them

 

[Pessimistic]

Niall (‘nothing’ in some languages) hasn’t been HFd for a while. Reckons Burgoyne should retire after the port Adelaide (indigenous round) game

What a flog

How does that opinion make him a flog?
