Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Pick 37, Henry Hustwaite - Debuts against the Dees!
Agree, Husswaite have been much better that Riding at VFL Level for 2 and a bit years now Huswaite has been consistent there. And shown a bit at AFL level and struggled in other games. Huss may struggle but I dont think it will be because of Rider. It's because Mackenzie and Butler are keeping... -

No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10
Or should Victorian clubs be able to set up Academies in Queensland and kids can choose which academy they join based on the quality of the program they run. And Academy graduates get priority access for that club in the draft. Or we just go to a real draft, no free agency compensation, no... -

Prediction Best 23, Round Zero 2026
This would be a mistake. Butler needs to play Mid, we need his toughness and defensive side in there. I think playing him forward again, where he really struggled to have a big impact. Replacing CMac you knows that forward role so well and is suspect defensively. I like many have high hopes... -

Prediction Best 23, Round Zero 2026
Also "key forward" doesn't really mean tall forward. It means CHF or FF, or simply Guy they kick the ball too. Jason Dunstall was shorter than Jack Gunston. Not every Key Forward is Travis Cloke. Mark Williams was a key forward. Cyril played as a key forward sometimes. Fergus Greene was a... -

No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10
Yes. You don't even need any of these articles. You just need to determine, "Are the rules different for Team X to the other 17 teams?" If yes than it's unfair. Sydney, GWS, Brisbane and Gold Coast have NEVER had the same rules as the other clubs. They always have had, extra salary cap... -

Welcome to Hawthorn - Tom Mitchell - 2018 Brownlow medalist
He tore teams apart on his own those years. I remember a game against Geelong where Blicavs at half time gave an interview and was asked "bit different role for you today playing midfield in the centre square" And he said "yeah, doing a bit of a tagging on Tom Mitchell", who I think had 26... -

News Hawthorn in the media 2026
Once there were houses built all around the oval practically at the fence line wind was well blocked. If the wind becomes a problem we can do anything from plant trees or build a fully enclosed roofed stadium that holds 120,000 people. -

Training 2026 Off-Season & Preseason reports and discussion
Nash needs to be the guy, he's been poor some times when we are getting bashed in the middle. He started the prelim great but didn't impose himself defensively when they were winning. He's had a few bad games against Geelong and I think it was gold coast too where I was looking for someone to... -

Prediction Best 23, Round Zero 2026
Exactly, Gunston last year played as a full forward out of the goalsquare, lead, mark, kick a goal. Exactly like Jason Dunstall. And when we are having a discussion about how many key forwards to play, Gunston has to be considered 1 of them. The main reason we have the discussion is to... -

Training 2026 Off-Season & Preseason reports and discussion
I read that too. I'm also a little concerned that both Hawthorn and Geelong haven't announced the unofficial game on their websites only in AFL articles. And the other clubs games has information about ticketing, most saying free entry or some requiring registration. Would be very disappointed... -

Co-Captains. WHY?
A captain is different to a manager though. However I do agree with your premise that more leaders are expected in most workplaces. An example from my field in I.T but applies to most customer service teams. We have a service desk of about 50 service techs people (similar to an AFL list size... -

Prediction Best 23, Round Zero 2026
Gunston is clearly a key forward. He was 2nd in the Coleman, gets almost all his goals from balls kicked to him a lead up forward. If Gunston isn't a key forward neither were Dunstall and Lockett. He sure as shit isn't a defensive pressure or crumbing small forward. He's not a pack marking... -

Prediction Best 23, Round Zero 2026
For key forwards i'm picking in order Gunston, Chol, Dear, Lewis, Ramsden, McCabe, Schubert. Shubert looks very promising but still so young and yet to play a real game. The 2 practice matches will change all this, and I really have no clue what the club is planning for McCabe. Injury effected...
