Hawthorn’s decline

[BigVic]

I thought at the start of 2020, Hawthorn would make the finals and possibly the top 4 with Tom Mitchell back.

Now they’re rock bottom after a loss to the previously winless Adelaide.

Fastest decline for a team which made 4 straight grand finals from 2012-15 and winning a 3peat.

Wowee Hawthorn are s**t!

Doubt many at all had them top 4, list is nowhere near that.

Also the slowest considering we are the only team with that resume

Where are they at?

I can't think of much worse than watching the W&Ps play at the moment, but for those who have seen their games, are we looking at a Sherman Special? A Panzer Performance?

Dingley

Yes, possibly the fastest decline of a team that won 4 flags in 10 years ever

 

[Bunk Moreland]

I’d hate to be a Hawthorn supporter right now.

I’d only have seen about half a dozen flags

 

[Great8]

The majority of their youth is junk.
Going to take a couple of good drafts to pull them out of the bottom 4 for the next few years

Thanks, this post actually cheered me up.

We were playing off a 5 day break ffs.

Not even the fastest decline in Hawthorns history

Finished 2nd last in 1995 4 years after winning the 1991 flag (5 flags in 9 years)

We have played like that for 10 weeks, it has nothing to do with break.

Mitchell is a battler, no better than the fugly Matt Crouch. I could even run rings around them!

Lower than the Cats have ever been in well over 150 seasons.
They are beyond putrid with very very little to look forward to in terms of quality youth.
Checked out captain who laughs along with the opposition after a loss.
A best 22 choke full of over 30s.
Trading out first round picks consistently for flaky or inconsistent middling players.



HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

2008 still hurts huh?

2007 still hurts mate?

 

[Foucault1989]

Not surprised at all. I've been shitcanning their list for years. No fun anymore. Good luck with the rebuild. They are messy at the start.

 

[Toump Ass]

Al is a master coach, they'll be back in the Top 4 next year.

Going for 4 didnt work out for the Lions either but why wouldnt you try IF you got the chance.

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Yes

Then you understand how I feel!
Watching the hawks be putrid is akin to you watching the crows be putrid, it's rolled gold.

Wrong Brisbanes decline after winning three flags and playing in 4 straight grand finals was just as quick
