    Autopsy Rnd 5, Hawthorn vs Swans, Aurora Stadium 29th April

    My point though is that with an 18 team competition, if your expecting multiple premierships every decade then your just going to be eternally disappointed.

    Autopsy Rnd 5, Hawthorn vs Swans, Aurora Stadium 29th April

    perhaps we've all just severely overestimated the squad's talent in relation to the rest of the competition; perhaps partly because of the unexpected success in 2008 and the raw talent of franklin, rioli, roughead. And to those moping about "lost years" with this list, well at least we've...

    Mega Thread 2012 Fixture: Pros and Cons

    Re: 2012 Fixture Hawthorn's draw epitomizes how inept the AFL fixture has become. Hawthorn play just 3 away matches interstate next year; which is a massive advantage when other teams have to play 5-6. Each Victorian club should play 5 away games against interstate clubs (exactly...

    Mega Thread 2012 Fixture: Pros and Cons

    Re: 2012 Fixture yet again those clowns have scheduled essendon v hawthorn at etihad despite the equivalent game this year attracting 64,000 at the 'g. not to mention its a friday night so MCG is certainly available. And one of Essendon's home games at the 'g is against Melbourne :/ If...

    Don Scott gets behind an election for President

    Only one Hawthorn identity should be exalted more than Leigh Matthews and John Kennedy and that is Don Scott for saving the Brown and Gold. So whatever he says, I'm all for it!

    Fevola is there any chance

    perhaps if hawthorn recruited fev they might play franklin on the wing like richo in 2008 or ablett snr in the late 80's

    Demons dynasty vs. Hawks dynasty

    Well, not really. Because Melbourne's triple premierships came in the opening years of the war and the 1948 flag came immediately after it when the competition was seriously depleted for obvious reasons. Essendon were clearly the dominant team in the VFL from the mid 40's through to 1951; the...

    Geelong - the greatest team of all?

    Geelong circa 2004-2011 has now undoubtedly become one of the greatest teams of all time; alongside Collingwood of 1925-1930, Essendon 1946-1951, Melbourne 1954-1964, Richmond 1967-1975, Hawthorn 1983-1991 and Brisbane Lions 1999-2004. In terms of the AFL era post 1989, its certainly between...

    Quickest premiership rebuild (1990 onwards)

    But once you include players that slide or slip on their boots of course he's relegated to about 10th.

    Confirmed Commentators for 7/Fox next year.

    interesting that both saturday night callers are contracted to call saturday afternoon games on radio for the next 3 years.

    Jack Gunston

    pick 24 + Clinton Young for Gunston and pick 71 (unlikely to be used by Adelaide if they gain 24 and a pick from Richmond for Maric; while it maintains the status quo for Hawthorn's number of picks in the first 4 rounds)

    The Sub

    Agree that none of the players from the Sydney game really warranted being dropped. But of those 22 players, i don't think it was advantageous to select Suckling as the substitute; he either should have been a starting player or omitted for Breust/Savage. i don't understand this sentiment. If...

    Autopsy Hawthorn vs Collingwood

    A lot of vitriol directed at Bateman and Schoenmakers but I think Osborne's getting off lightly i thought he had very little influence
