Autopsy Pies' brilliant effort - so close! Down by a point.

[DrDavoren]

Walking home from the game now, don't know what to feel. Numb, but proud. When the Hawks got three goals up in the last quarter, I thought that was it. But the effort we put in, we kept coming and coming, gut wrenching efforts by so many of our guys. I love this club.

Love hurts

I wish Aish had played the whole game and Marley did his hammy. He was shitful.

 

[Temploar]

Nah nah nah no umpires excuses for that.

We just weren't good enough, admit it, it bloody hurts.....

 

[good4footy]

At the end of the day the coach picks players like Marley Williams and he costs you games.

Coach loses games, then coach loses his job. Pretty simple in this business.

How many turnovers and weak efforts can Williams be allowed to do and the coach still picks him?

Honourable loses pigs a**e.

You reckon Marley Williams would get a game with any side in the top eight?

Wouldn't get one with us if we had Ramsey, Sinclair or Sharenberg. What do you want people to do with selection when they aren't available. You have to pick someone suited to the role.

This is not defending the coach but get a grip.

 

[bunter]

Treloar deserves AA, Williams needs to leave before any more damage is done.

give marley his due mate, he really pushed us in those last minutes. his one sided kicking holds him back too much

 

[hellfire]

I think we need to send GWS another first rounder for Treloar...

 

[mike123]

Greenwood, wow. I've been one of his harshest critics but he was great especially in the last. The half forward with stints in the middle might work for him.

Cloke was good, but he's haters are always going to hate.

Treloar = Swan mkII

Williams was quite poor in the first three quarters but lifted in the last.

Smith is too slow to be a defender. He might make it as a linkman but I'd have Aish, Sidebottom and Phillips ahead of him in that role. Speaking of which Aish's cool head would have been handy in the last.

About time we played Varcoe down back.

Phillips ball hand was good its some of his off ball smarts that need work.

Maynard's showing a bit of pace witch is great.

 

[spartan-magpie]

Whorethorn can go and get PHARKED.


The umpires can go and get PHARKED too.


We deserved better for today's efforts.... Thems the break though.


The future is very bright, hope for next year is massive. Bucks, back firmly against the wall, will surely have us contending for a flag next year. If not, goodnight Irene.


This year we've lost swanny but gained someone who will become an even better player, Adam treloar... 36 touches, 4 tackles and 2 goals in 3 quarters!!!! Let's not go over the missed frees he should of had...This boy is the real deal.

 

[Lockyer24]

Excellent effort but showed who the guys are that are not up to it

Not sure the coaching staff and CEO are up to it either

But I'll get behind those lucky enough to stay one last time next year

Williams to top spot. We break out, blind ball fwd , turnover and we get it back in our face again.

And who would you replace him with exactly? Pretty sure he wouldn't be playing if Shaz, Ramsay were fit etc. Toovey maybe? Also can't kick.

Implications are profound.
They in the poo wee jumpers find ways to win.
Now they have a double chance.

1 tackle for Marley that entire game. What tf was he doing all day?

Not chasing and turning it over.

 

[jscan]

Anyone who can't recognise the difference between the most basic of three letter words is hardly qualified to recognise the qualities of a good coach.

Sorry sir, but the stats don't lie how the team has performed under a certain persons tenure, period.

The ball wouldn't get forward in the first place if it wasn't for Williams.

 

[jscan]

What happened to Williams though this year?, he was actually half decent once.

 

[Winterstick]

that umpiring display is why I only go to one game a year, 4 hour round trip to watch what seems to be biased umpiring.

 

[Vicky Park]

Where's the love for JDG and Crocker? The Crock put in an amazing effort for his age and experience.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Get stuffed!!!!!! That was the Hawthorn way again! when do they ever cop a s**t run with umpiring? never! We deserved that win and I am sick of watching those ******* parasites get an armchair ride!

Seems they get a better run.
Cyril even gets a whistle to blow in case any free is missed for him

 

[bunter]

I love how Buckley decided to protect a 6 point margin with over 2 minutes left by putting an extra down back, meanwhile Hawks put their extra in the middle and Fitzpatrick gets a goal from a clearance. Good stuff.

Don't care anymore, bring on the clean out.

get real mate

That is true too

Simpletons make judgements based on stats. Sorry about your period.

 

[Pendles!]

I really like Crocker. Hopefully he keeps getting better and starts to get more involved. He's class!

I just hope and pray they develop more of a defined system in the off season. Personally, a gameplan based purely on pressure just doesn't cut it.
