Autopsy AFL 2025 Round 5 - Port v Hawks Sun April 13th 7:20pm AEST (AO)

[Powerade 08]

While we are at name an occasion Mitchell has shown arrogance and dismissed any other team. Macrae has done it as has Goodwin. Is it the fact they have won flags so they can say what they like because I'm confused. Name 1 occasion, if it takes all day to find an example that's fine I'll wait.

Mitchell stayed in the box after the game waiting for Kent Hinkley and the players to disappear into the rooms, lol.

He is Kent Hinkleys bitch forever

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Lol, you're not relevant again, you're nothing more than a top 8 clogger like my mob, the difference being, with the northern clubs up and about the Vic media are pumping you up as one of their great hopes along with the Pies and Cats.
Pies and Cats are relevant though.

Yeah the media are pumping us up who else? Anybody within the club come out and said we're better than everybody else?. This all just sounds like " Cos Hawthorn" meaning I don't have a reason or an example why I hate them outside the fact they have been good recently and a few blokes wanted to practice some goal celebrations during the game line it's the biggest crime of all time. It's an utterly pathetic argument.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

There was a bit on the line, your Skipper was putrid when it mattered and your mouthy small forwards non existent.
Infact, the only bloke who really stood up came from Clarko's era, Gunston.
Hardly suprising.

Bit on the line for who you guys? Absolutely. For us nah not really. We will be 7-2 at worst by round 9 considering we play the bottom 3 sides after Easter Monday. Be nice when we play you guys outside Adelaide.

Hilarious, can't find examples so we deflect to some nonsense that should be on Bay 13.

Port Adelaide and Sam Mitchell comment on Willie Rioli's Hawthorn attack

What's the history here?
As I understand Riolis dad was on Hawks list 30 years ago

Hawks were known for having a similar unofficial policy to Pies up to the mid 90s regarding indigenous players, so I can imagine it was a pretty shit environment to be in for a young indigenous player from WA.

The reference to Brother is Cyril Rioli Jnr.

 

[Duckimus Prime]

Name a game we celebrated in the faces of the opposition, or better yet showed the ball whilst running into an open goal. That's the epitome of arrogance not celebrating goals with your team mates.

See he's gotta go with the "running into an open goal" extra limitation, because apparently its all perfectly fine if you do it to Lachie Whitfield before passing to Blake Hardwick for his goal in the third.

 

[OniAu]

So no examples just the vibe bullshit. I'd say the same thing to you regarding genuinely believe we dish it out but can't take it, is that because Kane Cornes tells you to believe it? Damian Barrett? It's absolute nonsense.

Were you asleep in last years final series? Your club was appalling post game. Captain and Coach got too emotional for the moments their club created

Examples of what? I’d be here all day listing off moments where Watson, Ginnivan, Sicily, Chol, Hardwick, Moore, specifically, all carried on like w***ers, complaining to umpires, playing for free kicks etc. Anyone who has eyes can see most of the Hawthorn players think far too highly of themselves.

Rioli does a bit of showboating and the entire team has an absolute meltdown and Hawks fans can’t seem to handle it either. Gotta just wear it when it comes around the other way.

 

[Obeanie1]

If he finds smarts arses offensive he may as well not follow any team. There's at least half a dozen smart arses in every team. Day and Newcombe are smart arses too by association according to some of these posters. Absolutely laughable arguments.

So Mitchell hasn't encouraged his players to push boundaries and play on the edge with mental games?

The media seem to think this is the Hawks brand now.

You honestly think Rioli did that out of arrogance? No prompt, no anything from the poor innocent Hoks? They were just playing football, the poor lads.

Tell you what, do you want to go over the aftermath of every port goal, or shall I?

I'd imagine his dad had a fairly rough time of things back in the day- that and Cyril's review of the place wouldn't really be glowing.

So just like every other team does. Complaining to umpires means they are arrogant , fair dinkum mate the fact you named Hardwick and Chol says you don't have a clue what your on about. Clearly not getting through to you either so it's probably best if I just leave you to keep yelling at clouds and making up things that don't exist.

Lol of course it was out of arrogance and disdain. he's made it clear he hates us have you not heard the news. Any action anybody else does outside of Hawthorn is all fine but anything we do you all squeal like pigs. It's pathetic really.

 

[Coasters7]

old mate is putting in a big shift posting through it

Last time I checked your boys got around each other and celebrated each goal, but apparently we are the only ones that shouldn't be doing it because when we do it it's arrogant. It doesn't matter if you do Gangnam style or just high five team mates it's still the same thing, this is what you and other posters seem to not want to comprehend or choosing not to.

Nah mate the audacity to have a whinge about umpiring decisions despite leading with the head into every contest and leading the free kicks for for the year is crazy

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

The media seem to think this is the Hawks brand now.

Mate Hinkley has spent the last 2 games against us playing mind games and playing on the edge. He's embraced the media narrative and driven it not us.

And do you think he does that if Hawthorn hadn’t initiated it and made themselves a target?

Nobody else whinges , you had a bloke running around for your club called Luke Schuey remember him?, he won you guys a final by leading with his head just like he did countless times across his career. Don't feed me this only we play for free kicks narrative.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

In what way, Ginnivan sent a post to Grundy on his page, where did it imply anything to do with Port. Port decided to make an issue out of it and have carried it with them ever since

I also distinctly remember a guy called Ashton Hams who did the same thing.

 

[PenfoldsFan]

Was there? Probably for Port not for a team that was sitting 4 - 0. The 4 points was on the line nothing more nothing less. All the gloating and media furore won't change the fact that this game was only worth 4 points

Lol, your Coach literally said the recent history was a motivator and had been discussed amongst the group.

Unfortunately they shit the bed when the talking stopped.
