    You have to put your hand up

    Really dodged a bullet there 🤣 Good things come to those who waits. Battle and Barrass are massive upgrades on those 2.

    Autopsy Round 21, 2024 : Hawks snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

    Yep not doom and gloom at all. Being 28 points up when not playing at our best and away from home, means we got a lot right and our system is resilient to some of our best players being shut out of the game (i.e Day). We got the tactics wrong in the last quarter, and Sam acknowledged this in...

    Autopsy Round 21, 2024 : Hawks snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

    We got the tactics wrong in the final quarter. Why did we send a loose man down back behind the ball? It gave them an extra around the ball and got their run going from half back and let Daniels run riot. We were smashing them in the clearances for most of the match. I get Toby and Hogan were...

    Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 21 - GWS v Hawks Sun Aug 4th 1:10pm AEST (Manuka)

    Great match. In the last Q hawthorn played a loose man behind and Kingo moved Daniels on ball. Very well played by Kingo - got the Tsumani going big time. Not a great tactical decision by Mitchell and co, imo. Great match otherwise. I feel a long rivalry between these two sides brewing...

    Autopsy Round 17, 2024 : Hawks fall in a hole in Geelong

    The cats played unbelievably well today unfortunately. IMO they havent played better this season. Everything was working for them - shutting down the field and turning pressure into offensive momentum. They rattled us early on and we could never get our game going based on the way they...

    Rumour Jeremy Finlayson under investigation - 3 game suspension

    But but everything that challenges my insane world view is obviously ULTRA-WOKE COMMUNISM

    Rumour Jeremy Finlayson under investigation - 3 game suspension

    The severity argument is valid; however, it's dismissive of several factors that should be considered within the context of this particular case. Rough conduct offences are common in the AFL; a couple of players are generally suspended on a weekly basis. They know the rules and will be punished...

    Autopsy Round 3, 2024 :Hawks fail against Cats

    Inconsistency, again, the killer. The fact we used intensity to get back in that was a good sign and was fun to watch. Seemed like we lost the few moments that really flipped the momentum back in their favour. Pretty annoying we’ve come up against two sides already (Geelong, Essendon) that have...

    Autopsy Round 2, 2024: Hawks go to hell

    Patience. Melbourne exposed how immature the side is. They are a very experienced outfit. Might take longer than expected to get to that level consistently. I wouldn’t exactly call Weddle, Wiz, Mackenzie, C.Mac, Day, Nuke, Ginni “vanilla”. Lots of upside in that crop. They need time and...

    Autopsy Round 2, 2024: Hawks go to hell

    I’m going to put this down to Melbourne just being a very good football side. They will smash several teams in similar fashion this year. We had no answers for the way set up behind the ball and then they were pretty classy in general play too. Quite a few of our young players haven’t adjusted...

    Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn : Jai “Duke” Newcombe - 2024 Peter Crimmins medalist - extends to 2032!

    Loved his game tonight. Obviously had a huge impact defensively, but thought he was clean and smart with his hands in tight situations. Looking forward to his development. Could be an absolute weapon after a season and full preseason.

    Some positives...

    Burton has so much more improvement in him. He will bust a game open soon. Rioli, Poppy, Impey and Bruest will be absolute force when it's on the park and will an asset to midfield rotations. Very versatile.

    Burton is ~sooooo~ good

    Preview Hawks vs the COLA $wans and the man they call Juda$ - it's the big dance.

    Spang plays. He's been fairly average in the finals but he has definitely showed his ability to constest, contest and contest. We have a team full of skillful players, but he don't have many who will throw their body around with minimal concern for their safety. You need a few players like...
