    Autopsy Round 12, 2026: Hawks smack the Saints

    As many have suggested, if the man on the market is inside the line, it is pretty pointless kicking over his head…..either the umpire lined him up incorrectly or the marker intentionally moved inside.

    To be fair, we don’t know either theory to be true. That’s why they are theories.

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

    Is the man on the mark inside the line to the centre of the goal? Line Watson up with the goal umpire........

    Impey soft? Simply outrageous.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Ollie Greeves

    Did anyone notice, during the mob celebration after Dalton’s goal put BH up at the 30 something minute mark, it was Greeves telling players to get organised again? That is a big tick .

    Preview Round 10, 2025: Melbourne v Hawthorn, 4:15pm Sat 16th May MCG

    Not much point playing your AFL-listed players in a forward pocket /flank if the VFL (or worse) standard players can’t get the ball to them. That won’t help their development at all.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    One after a great rove off the contest... pretty well done I would've thought.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    Panic? It's not like we couldn't get our hands on the ball during the 'run' yesterday. Kicking 7 points suggests as much.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    Agreed. In fact, unless the Ruck is standing on the line and doing an absolute vertical jump, they are going to travel forward as well as up. Then, if the opposing Ruck decides not to contest and just get out of the way (as the Collingwood ruck did often), of course Meek is going to cross the...

    Autopsy Round 6, 2026: Hawks dim the lights

    We have had a great start to the year. The Swans are smashing teams: beat them. Beat Geelong in a belter, then beat the top team a few days later. Many suggested, given our early fixture, that they would take a 3-2 start. Now at 5-1, we are doing a lot right. As for the commentary discussion...

    Autopsy Round 6, 2026: Hawks dim the lights

    Fair enough. My point was the reference to if their “ruck kicks that goal, we lose by 2” ; doesn’t work like that.

    Autopsy Round 6, 2026: Hawks dim the lights

    Didn’t we miss some very easy shots as well? And kicked more points?

    Autopsy Round 4, Easter Monday, 2026: Hawks make a great point!

    Buckley’s admissions show a self awareness, an ability to continue to learn throughout one’s life and adapt; hallmarks of a very good teacher I would have thought. Not all coaches (or teachers - not necessarily the same thing, although good coaches teach) get it right the first time. And sorry...

    Autopsy Round 4, Easter Monday, 2026: Hawks make a great point!

    Apart from knowing a bit about the game, Buckley is a very high-order individual; I have seen this first hand in the way he dealt with a sensitive issue involving one of our school students (Melbourne school) who was in the AIS academy (in Canberra) under Buckley at the time. Went above and...
