Game Day Round 11, 2025: Hawthorn v Brisbane Lions, 4.15pm @ MCG

[SSSSSS]

I don't mind playing bad football. Even our best sides have had off days.

I can't accept soft football.

Minus the third quarter we have been soft. That was a shit effort by Moore.

 

[macdaddio]

We’re don't have that same hunger and desire like last year.

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Reckon this stupid ****ing cameraman could zoom any closer?

 

[Lickmesocks]

Ginniy going around the corner from 40+ and not making the distance... Seen it a million times

When you are winning like last year nobody mentions it but when things are bad it stands out like a pair.

 

[humid hawk]

Just switched off. Moores gutless decision to not go for the ball exemplified our weak game today. Out tackled and out hunted.

 

[daniel23]

What chance do the boys stand when they look to their captain playing vfl quality footy and giving away ridiculous 50s

 

[Sturty]

Disgusting effort

 

[HK_Hawk]

Sis needs to take a long hard look at himself. Can he grow and mature from this or will he continue to fall into old beliefs and habits? A fork in the road for him, IMO.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

We’re don't have that same hunger and desire like last year.

Something has seemed off all season, I wonder what it is.

 

[RoughysMullet]

Can you blame the Darwin trip- 10 day break though- we’re nowhere near it

 

[SSSSSS]

Five defenders go up.

No one stays down.

No one playing front and centre.

 

[Sleutheren]

We can't lay an effective tackle to save ourselves.

 

[LunchboxLegend]

How can Ashcroft be alone 10m out the back of the contest?

Is our whole setup wrong?

 

[Roddy]

We’ve played like clowns today, absolute clowns.

In fact that’s an insult to clowns.

 

[grumbleguts]

Reckon this stupid ****ing cameraman could zoom any closer?

I hate it when they zoom in in the midfield without giving you context of where the camerman is sitting so you have no idea what direction the ball is traveling.

 

[VandoHawk]

I hope this will be a wake up call for the players. Far too many have been average all year.

And if they don’t respond we’re disappointingly pretenders.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Since Day got injured our midfield has been very average

Nash has been very average this season
Maginness not sure how he gets a game ahead of Hustwaite

 

[Stottzy]

Reality check. We are a long way off top 4.

Wouldn't say we are a long way off, but definitely need another elite midfielder.

 

[SSSSSS]

W A T E R F A L L

 

[Stranglers]

We’re don't have that same hunger and desire like last year.

I get the feeling the expectation for us to go on with it this year, whether it was external or internal to the club, has disrupted whatever mojo we had going on last year.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Can you blame the Darwin trip- 10 day break though- we’re nowhere near it

Darwin trip isn't an excuse. Gameplan being curbed and a lack of effort seem to be the main issues, on face value anyway.

 

[H00t]

There’s free lions players every time they go forward.

 

[SSSSSS]

How does a 2x Brownlow medalist never have a body on him at every stoppage

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

I get the feeling the expectation for us to go on with it this year, whether it was external or internal to the club, has disrupted whatever mojo we had going on last year.

Which is why a month of losses might be good for the team.

 

[Bulldust12]

Stop whining people, we needed this so we can stop pretending.

It's now over to the coach to realize he has to pull the trigger on a few players, so we don't waste the talent we actually have. Lets see if he has the guts.

This should be a "come to Jesus" game
