Preview Round 9, 2021: Hawks v Roos, 2:10pm 15th May @ UTAS

[Rev08]

Could’ve made out like bandits 6 months ago...

 

[TylerDurden]

JOM in, according to T Mitchell instagram.

 

[killerspud]

Guys played in 3 flags and a decent chunk of finals .
Its not like he has gone a whole career without success .

Hopefully he is a one club player , getting sick of seeing of premiership heroes finishing in a different guernsey

He's already a two club player

 

[The hands of stone]

Anyone feel like this could be when we gave Adelaide their first win last year? (HOPEFULLY NOT)

Without being a doomsdayer we also give the Lions their first win in 2018 after a long losing streak.

Good news is we are due to NOT be the side to end a long losing streak

 

[The hands of stone]

Ah true ......still want a multi premiership player finishing out with us though

 

[daniel23]

I'd be happy with

In : Jom, Morris, brockman
Outs jeka , shiels , Howe

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

I'd be happy with

no way would we bring in Tank and Brocky without dropping a small

i would be very surprised if Moore isn't rested/dropped/whatever the * we want to call it

Worst one was in 2001 against Freo.

They were 0-17 and playing us in Melbourne and they beat us even though we were 5 goals up at half time.

Maybe the worst Hawthorn loss i can remember.

I was at the game . At half time noone where I was sitting felt comfortable at all .
We had 3-4 key runners get injured and you could see Freo gain confidence and despite the score were right in the game in general play.

At 3/4 time it felt like it would be more of a suprise if we hung on rather then them run over us .....was very hard viewing as it unfolded .

I'd like to see Moore moved up to a wing , Morris replacing jeka and brockman taking moore's spot up forward.

 

[WWSD]

I would be shocked if Brockman isn’t one of the inclusions. Leave him in the team for the rest of the year.

 

[killerspud]

Ah true ......still want a multi premiership player finishing out with us though

He's a member of a triple premiership team - I agree with that 100 percent (unless of course he wants to go)

 

[kazzooka]

The most experienced tall forward on our list who was not recovering from back surgery? Gee, I wonder why.

Experienced at what tho? Not getting a kick? Dropping marks?

 

[local hack]

Easy in hindsight i know, but how good would it been to have Collingwoods first right now....

 

[mustang]

Wouldn't shock me if it's a Birchall type situation with Gunston, so durable until about 29 then barely plays for a 3 year period or so after getting a major surgery. Back Surgery in Gunston's case is never any good for anyone, let alone a pro sportsman nearing 30 at the elite level.

Surely the club wouldn’t keep him on the list as long as they did Birch.

I wonder if this may turn out to be Gunston last year if he can’t get on the park.

Bit of an overreaction for a very durable guy who so far has missed only 7 games.

Patience guys

 

[theiaofseed]

We have a percentage of 73.5% and North have a Percentage of 52.7% anyone good with that maths to work out what do we need to lose by for North to over take our Percentage.

If we lose 100-0 our percentage would still be higher

“Managed” That is the PC term now used for omitted.

 

[Rev08]

It’s what was offered too. Different narrative around the HFC if we’re walking into this draft with two top five picks.

Hindsight and all that though.

 

[Hawk_francais]

I'd be happy with

In : Jom, Morris, brockman
Outs jeka , shiels , Howe

In: On-baller, small fwd, small fwd
Out: Tall fwd, wing/mid, wing/mid

Doesn’t really add up

Mentioned earlier I'd move Moore up to the wing to take over howe's spot. Morris in for jeka ,we are to tall up front especially when Lewis and jeka aren't the best pressure talls . Brockmen takes moore's spot.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

These could be the changes

O’Meara TOB Brockman in
Hartley Jeka Moore out

I would drop Hartigan before Hartley but can’t see them doing this
They may drop Howe but Shiels should get the boot after last weeks performance and before that was just average

 

[Billyc]

In: On-baller, small fwd, small fwd
Out: Tall fwd, wing/mid, wing/mid

Doesn’t really add up

That’s assuming the structure in the side that got flogged last week was the right one

 

[Dazza the Viking]

I thought we played too many talls last week

Contracted until 2023 I think so he's have to see it out for financial reasons.

MrPremiership Birchall was oh so durable at one point also.

BTW Gunners deserves the money, took unders whilst young in the 3 peat team, been a great player for us and it wasn't his fault he got jabbed up to get through last season when our side had nothing to play for.
