From a selfish point of view, I prefer Sunday arvo. I’ve got young kids, so night games is a struggle and with there basketball all day on Saturday, Sunday arvo is perfect for us to go to as a family.What the hell happened to footy at 2pm on a Saturday !!! ???
Clarko sentimental with Nash who has played one game this year?
How? What evidence do you have, or is it just a biased opinion?

fu** me, some of the jumping at shadows in here before the teams even named. Mind numbing.
How about waiting to see if the player you really like/don’t like gets named before throwing the toys out of the cot.
In your opinion he has gone backwards, not his coaches.Nash is still on the list after 5 years.
Reckon he should be played as often as is good for his development. Along with his composure I think he will become an integral part of Hawthorns backbone in the future.Thoughts on Brockman playing against the Eagles?
I am actually starting to believe we have no clear strategy/plan for youth team selection, their is zero point in playing a player for 1 game in the AFL after coming in through VFL from a different position.Its funny because if only finn and your fav player were playing well at box hill. If only. Its the players like howe that are performing in essence you want clarko to be subjective not objective about team selection. Finn and downie are not ready. Playing the kids in a team that gets flogged doesnt serve them at all. They dont learn anything. But i know its all about the kids so carry on
How have you possibly drawn this conclusion? One tactical miss and suddenly he's blaming Finn for the loss? Nonsense, he just simply didn't say that.
BTW - Jack Steele didn't get any coaches votes, he got fewer than his average possessions, clearances and tackles.

Would love someone’s idea on what it teaches because I can’t find many positives.
it is not about playing the youth, but it needs to be a focus with the position we are in and it’s waining week on week. I firmly believe too much VFL stifles development, and all you end up with is VFL depth
We have been in this place before. I recall thinking we have nothing coming through some time ago. Next thing Breust and Suckling were playing like they belonged, virtually straight up. The seniors are not getting it done and the kids will not either. Supporters need to view this as a developmental year imo whether that be kids playing seniors or at BH. Buckle in Hawks fans.Its funny because if only finn and your fav player were playing well at box hill. If only.

Nash is still on the list after 5 years and has gone backward, an has another year on his contract. List spots are in demand and he may be a gaelic footballer, but his no AFL player.

Sure they could go with Lewis but FFS the kid would have to show a bit of effort instead of his pea hearted efforts of last week.
In 2005 we had already had drafted the core of our side franklin rough etc and even then franklin came in much earlier than rough. If you have players that are ready to be played we play them. Some of the players on the list currently may not make it. Most of our young talent is injuredI'm totally up for a development year (or more). For that reason I'd like to see a bit more consistency around picking younger players. From the presser Clarko seemed to think that we need a minimum level of experience/leadership else the game plan falls over. Is it time for a 2005-like year where we only play players who might be playing in 3 years time and accept that losses are going to be like we saw on the weekend?

Jaeger won’t play, he’s injured another stretch of the truth suggesting he was managed.
