AFL 2025 Second Preliminary Final - Cats v Hawks Fri Sept 19th 7:40pm EST (MCG)

[Fadge]

Collingwood are more chance to beat Geelong. I'd give both under 20% odds though

So about the same odds that we were told we were of beating Adelaide?

Nice.

Sam Mitchell crapped the bed tonight. I thought he was better than that.

The bloke is a "genius" mate... dunno what you're talking about. Better than Jock McHale and Norm Smith combined isn't he?

20 to 5 centre clearances. Gold limo on the way to Merrett’s house

Maybe you should start a thread about how much you care about safe workplaces or something ....

 

[Black Saab]

To be fair so do I but I’m just jealous

Nah, you can't be jealous of supporters who still think the Lance Armstrong's of the world are really talented at what they do.

Wasn’t Sam Mitchell that couldn’t win a contested posession and choked under pressure.

So good to see the back of those pricks. Now for Brisbane to win the whole thing.

A painful repeat of the 2024 prelim in the gf would make up for our 1 win season (and the worst finals series ever so far).

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

You had no moves to make; this is not one that got away.

Not enough quality outside Newcombe, Our only hope for this year in a game like thst was sitting on the bench with the headset on. He would have made a significant difference but alas not to be. Get Petracca as a requirement after watching that tonight. Need a brute who can smash through stoppages outside Newcombe.

 

[Yellow Feathers]

A dark day for AFL. Here we go again.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Mate the centre clearances were 20 to 5 and they had 26 less inside 50’s they definitely need to focus on their midfield more than their forward line

Maybe now you blokes can understand why we're being so ruthless with what we are doing. It's literally standing between us and regularly contending.

There’s a fairly large talent gap between those two lists to be fair

Great play Hawks, scoreboard didn't really do it justice.

Another dead set classic between the old foes....

I rhought the scoreboard flattered the Hawks

Tell me one good move he made.

Went pretty much as expected in the end. Sit on Jai, and we have nothing in the clearance department. 20 centre clearances to 5 pretty much won Geelong the game. Didn't help that his main tagger got more possessions than Jai did. Hopefully we get someone else in who can win a clearance in the offseason, and make the Jai tag a lot less effective. Day would help, but too fragile to be our only plan to fix the clearance situation.

Sorry to see Stewart go down. Cruel time to get hit with concussion protocol.

Wizard to the back line

 

[srobbo]

Sam Mitchell the master coach who thinks he can recruit & prepare for finals at the same time.

Tell me one good move he made.

When you lose centre clearences that badly and midfield options are not there what can you do.

I doubt any Hawk supporters are dirty on Sam Mitchell tonight.

have a sip...

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

How's the grown as man in the Hawks cheer squad with his head painted come on mate lols
