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

    Serong was behind a lot of players last year. That’s just the reality. Based on form and injuries this year, he’d have gotten a lot more games. He was too good to be playing at VFL and the club did the right thing by him and facilitated a trade. It’s not that we didn’t want him and I’m happy...

    He hobbled off the ground in the 4th quarter. Anyone else this happens to and you'd expect them to be back next week or the week after.

    He looked to have hobbled off. There's no exaggeration to that. The exaggeration (while understandable) is that it means a serious injury. As always with these things, lets wait and see.

    Autopsy Round 7, 2026: Hawks destroy Suns

    Good win from the lads. Worth the travel. Newcombe started quiet but managed to bully his way into the contest. Maginness earned his stay today. Was hesitant by foot but had impact in the contest and linked up well on handball chains. Impey is in fine form and Scrimshaw had a fantastic game...

    Unofficial Preview 2026 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion

    PSA (before I implode) - note the spelling. Mark McKenzie Cam Mackenzie If we are going to talk about our players futures can we at least make sure we get the spelling of their names correct. Far out. Yelling into the ether that McKenzie is an untouchable player to trade but not even...

    Congrats on the win. A really well rounded team performance that a lot of players were deserving winners of the Norm Smith. Lots to look forward to and plenty of improvements to come.

    Voting done halfway through the 4th quarter unless its changed. Ashcroft, Andrews and Cameron were probably best on ground by that point.

    To be fair it was a weird call to make him sub. With the half of footy he was capable for, it makes you wonder why he wasn't a starting 22 if anything. The bigger risk was not subbing Cameron when he went down the second time. I still can't believe they didn't pull the trigger instantly.

    Fair point. I actually forgot about that which is basically a precedent.

    Hmm. It would be an interesting argument to try and make. They would have to argue that this was a foreseeable outcome if that’s the case. I’m not sure they’d be able to do that convincingly but I also didn’t think he would get 3 weeks either so what would I know

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn - Mabior Chol

    I think we have strong grounds to dispute the suspension. The rule basically states that if you pin the arms you have to make an attempt to mitigate risks of the head hitting the ground which he doesn’t do. However; 1. There was two tacklers. Butler had him first which his arms have slipped...

    Autopsy 2025 Preliminary Final: Hawks get rolled

    I thought we did try to play like that but credit to the Cats for stopping it effectively. They pressured the ball carrier and protected the space around them taking away those short quick options. We didn't adapt well enough in those moments. The glaring weakness this game was the clearance...
