Game Day Round 5 2019: Hawks v Cats, 3:20pm @MCG

[Seagull Supremacy]

Easily my least favourite game of the year, every year. Can't stomach these evil pricks and their media cheer squad. Not watching on tv either, because I know we'll cop the usual Geelong biased "commentary" from the adolescent Channel 7 boys' club.

 

[RoughysMullet]

Gonna take a massive punt and predict that the umpires protect Diverfield, Crablett and Duckwood at every given opportunity today.

If we can keep ‘Geelong goals as a result of Selwood ducking’ under 3 goals will be a good result..

 

[LRobbo]

Geez I hate this mob.

Losing to them is unbearable.
Got a feeling Clarko will have the boys fired up early on, just need to not have any fade outs or the sooks will pounce on any lapses.

Hopefully no umpire intervention today but we all know that’s not possible with the Cats involved

Go you Hawks

 

[mainehawk]

Biting nails already ... Go Hawks ... [please]

 

[DEECEE]

Gunna enjoy a big pub feed and a red pre-game just in case the arvo goes a bit sideways. Go in with low expectations, happy to be surprised [emoji106][emoji106]

Oh and remember no trains from Caulfield to Richmond again.

The only way I see us winning is if our smaller forwards have huge games. We need 10 goals minimum out of Breust, Wingard and Puopolo.

We also need Scully, Smith and Henderson to hit the scoreboard multiple times. I think they can as whilst Duncan is an elite wingman he's not known for his two-way running, and they don't have other wingmen that can keep up. Maybe Guthrie will get a tagging job on one of them?

From the mouth of our dear old captain

 

[SSSSSS]

No injuries please.

Worps to destroy Selwood in the middle.

Brendon Bolton's fifth and final game as caretaker coach.

Selwood doesn't play much in the middle these days.

 

[Nugett]

3:20 is a ridiculous time. FU Gil and the other brain trusts that thought this was a good time to be playing footy. 2:20 should be the latest.

The trauma of having Worpel charging at you will do that to most pea hearts.

 

[Nugett]

Some things I want to see today:
- Wingaz 5 goals
- Scully and Smith to rip up both wings
- Mitch Lewis to clunk a couple
- Nash to really shake up the geelong defence.
- a win

Some things I don't want to see:
- blind kicking out of defence
- Harry Taylor taking uncontested marks in the backline while 3 of his team mates block our forwards from getting near the ball.
- Ablett/Selwood/Dangerfield hitting the scoreboard
- Hawkins smiling, for any reason.

To see Hawkins smile, just means he’s removed his own head out of his arse.
I’d like to see more Scott sooking.

 

[Wizzmania]

Am worried that Kelly might get off the chain and damage us today. Hope not.
My highlight of both Geelong games last year was seeing Chris Scott at the after match press conferences. Was at his insolent prickly best. Made the victories even sweeter.
Go Hawks

So no pies in change room?

We’re going to need a lot to go right to get within 10 goals. I’ll temper my “what I want to see” list:

1. At no stage do we have so many injuries that we’re down to 18 men & can’t interchange;

2. Nobody we need against Carlton gets reported/injured;

3. Slightly overcast, but no rain. I’m in Perth, so overcast conditions block out the glare & make it better for watching on TV;

4. No shit commentators; &,

5. Be within 20 on the Free Kick Count.

Your over reaching with number 4. Especially if Lingy is there.
5 is just pure optimism, especially with that flog campaigner Hocking in charge of the umpires.

 

[tige19]

I really think we’ll see quicker ball movement and our boys taking the game on, we need to give our forwards an opportunity to perform.

Got a feeling we’ll pinch this.

 

[Nugett]

The first match I am attending this season. I have girded my loins (so to speak!) and am preparing for the worst and hoping for the best.

GO HAWKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers



Here’s hoping your a good omen to the game and we beat these bunch of arrogant flogs.

 

[macdaddio]

Let's Ronke them.

He hasn’t Ronked it since

 

[grumbleguts]

Selwood's KPI's

5 free kicks. 4 of them around the neck, with the neck lower than it was when the tackle started, and the arm on the side of the tackling arm up above his head.

 

[Off The Couch]

If we get close I’ll be happy

Just not sure who can shut the Wolfpack down and I fear it will be just a game of bomb it long, Taylor marks and back out it comes again

Happy to be proven very wrong - in fact ecstatic

Gee, I hope so.

I don't think it'll get us the win, but will make the game watchable & hopefully convince those upstairs to persist with the plan.

 

[ClarkoCommandos]

Wish i could be there today up on the gold coast for the weekend. Can we please win today against these pricks. Someone put that little jib Ablett into next week and his mate duckwood. Go Hawks!

 

[KINGBUDDY]

Heading to the G now comon hawks.... 4 quarters of hard tuff footy

 

[cryptor]

Struggling to keep my expectations low. Just getting a good feeling today we could make a statement.
