    Injury Injury Updates inc Hooper

    Awesome news if so.. He is a real X-Factor atm when in the side, and allows Cyril to stay in the centre of the ground as well. Will prove to be a handful again when back, I believe we are so much more dangerous with him in the side.

    Positives for Roughy

    I love roughy, and know he will eventually work things out. He's got a great future, thank God its with us! What must be recognised is that I think his issues are all mental, otherwise he would be rested. What if he genuinely has anxiety issues? Would explain the set shot misses, Ive...

    Murphy's law of team defence

    I think he's fantastic on the shorter opponents with smaller bodies, seems to gain the world of confidence playing on these types

    Review Changes & General Discussion - Hawks vs Crows

    So, so hope Hooper plays! He is such an X factor, the most exciting player in the team for mine, so important for the forward pressure and movement. Really hope he gets his hammy back on track because we are so much better with him in the side. I never actually knew how good he was, until he...

    Preview Hawthorn Team vs Port - Ins and Outs

    our forward line is looking so small atm. we are gunna have to spread the load this week big time, with at least Roughy to kick 3. Could be a dull, low scoring affair, though happy they dropped Westhoff as our backs seem to struggle against talls. Surely with such a no name foward line the Power...

    Trading 4 Burgoyne & Gibson = big mistake!!

    Outstanding trading and pickups at the end of '09! Am so happy with all these key players bar JKT so far. Hooper is DYNAMITE down forward, if he could find consistency he would end up like Rioli. One thing all these guys seem to add is pace to the side, one thing we seemed to lack in 09.

    Review Autopsy Thread - Round 10 - Hawthorn v Sydney Swans

    Does anyone agree that in such a tight and defensive flooding game as this, Dowler would have been a great 3rd tall target and taken the pressure off the other forwards aswell? I still think our forward line looks a little 2 dimensional without the gun 3rd tall. look at Sydney. they had...

    Toast Big positive from todays game

    Fantastic call. That style was the only way they had a chance and they knew it. Clog the game up and dominate in the ruck around stoppages. Play one on one and do not allow Hhawthorns runners a chance to get free. Yet we somehow overcame this tight defensive game which we usually struggle...

    Player Watch 9 Shaun Burgoyne

    this guy is going to be really important to Hawthorns success in the next few years. Expect big things, what a great recruit. Just hope he stays fit

    Do we chase a backman or a ruckman come trade period?

    Top call. The fact is Bailey will make such an impact if he ever gets fit, but if this doesnt work, maybe we should be on the lookout for a decent ruckman to replace Taylor? I know it sounds drastic, but do we want to be giving away frees again on a constant basis out of the middle which was...

    Beau Dowler - Why won't you play him!?

    strange looking lad, but Im pretty sure the HFC have high regards for this guy. Hhe could be anything, I think as he builds his confidence at BH (if he does) next year could be big for him. He must play as a third tall in the forward line I reckon, would take away the pressure Buddy and Rough...

    Preview Round 10 - Ins & Outs vs Sydney @ MCG

    excellent. Sewell has been named as a follower and also in the forward pocket, appears he has been split in half. And no Hooper lol
