    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    That's the most ridiculous statement I've read on Bigfooty all year. How about "Hawthorn got the draw because Dylan Moore can kick straight under pressure"?

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    As long as we're winning games it doesn't impact my enjoyment of watching at all. The constant pearl clutching over expected scoring is just noise that I can live without.

    2026 Trade/Free agent targets for HFC

    My understanding is that moneyball is about finding diamonds in the rough that are underutilized where they are, cheap to acquire and easy to turn around into a successful player. Masso, Spang, Newk are our most recent ones, Perez is in the frame too.

    My initial reaction was to laugh, but it's actually quite cool that we value Lambart enough to even consider something like this.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    You are not going to change my mind by explaining it any further. It's less useful than the "Pressure Factor" dribble that the footy commentators love to spout. Anyone that has watched enough games to create an account here and contribute will have a good feel for the game already. We can see...

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    I'm ignoring all the expected score dribble, I really wish others would too.

    No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10

    You really want them to guesstimate 25m? When they are already soooo good at 15 and 50 already. Play on!

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Nick 'the Wizard' Watson! Rising star Nom!

    Also has to take into account the different game style these days Cyril would be just fine in 2026, teleport Wiz of 2026 back to 2012 and things get interesting.

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

    I thought they would have engineered it to go to Pendles this year, or is the gold number the consolation prize? Interesting conspiracy theories abound.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    So the onus is on the jumping ruck to at least make contact with the ball? If that's the intention of the rule, that's fine. The issues seem to arise when the non-jumping ruck causes an infringement specifically because they didn't jump, because the opposing ruck that's actually making an...

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Pick 18, Josh Weddle - now locked in until 2030

    Can we get the lad some new boots? And a kicking coach if that doesn't work. Seriously he was a decent kick at goal before this year, but something has gone horribly wrong recently.
