Game Day Round 19, 2025: Hawks v Power, 1.20pm Sat 19th July, UTAS

[Mercy Seat]

Too much to ask?

 

[TazHawk15]

I am not far out of Launceston and it’s far to say it’s windy.

Going to make kicking for set shots at goal a nightmare.

Yep, Port always seem to play their GF against us these days....

 

[Dewnior]

I swear I am cursed.

I was back in Melbourne for the saints game - my stupid brother organised his stupid wedding for that night.

Got to watch the Freo game. UGH. That wasn't much fun.

Now with a potential demolition of Port ahead of us, my stupid wife has organised a stupid visit to the OB right smack in the middle of the game because of my stupid impending fatherhood. (Yay!)

On a sample size of two I guess the games I don't get to watch we win, so lets flog these gormless cretins by 50 in the wet and start our run!

I like to put all the games in my missus' calendar weeks ahead so she doesn't organise anything that involves me at those times.

Fwiw, I'm not a fan of the rolling draw

 

[Dragz]

Very windy in Launceston at the moment, just started to drizzle. Ground is going to be damp anyway and rain is coming.
Need to be agressive at the ball and them in the first quarter and build a lead, because it'll be a slog i reckon :/

This day is made for the Wizard

 

[triple treat]

Start is critical in this one I reckon, if Port manage the 1st couple they will get there tails up and be hard to stop but if we get the first 2 then I reckon their heads will drop and we will smash them.

 

[rdhopkins2]

The Wizard to put the remove finals qualification on Port & Jack to jump in the PA coaches box personnel minds as he kicks 5 playing small in the windy pockets.

Hawks by 21st.

Not a great day for Lewis and Calsher to be making/continuing their respective comebacks, but hey, it’s a winter sport and we play four games a year in Tassie…

 

[Blackhawk42]

Absolutely not expecting an easy win. Not even necessarily 'expecting' a win. We simply just need to.

This mob has Geelonged me a little bit.

Funnily enough, I remember back to round 21 2015 when we were third and Port couldn't make finals. They rolled us by 4 goals. That was the game Luke Hodge tried to murder [PLAYERCARD]Chad Wingard[/PLAYERCARD] with a bump on the behind post.

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

It’s quite simple today.

Winning is a non negotiable, if we don’t port have really ****ed with our heads and we don’t deserve to play finals football. That’s it.

 

[lethalselbow]

A lot of confidence of a big win. Hope the side doesn't come out like that.

Happy with a win. Happier if it's by plenty.

Bailey MacDonald is today’s sub.

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

A hard fought win instead of a thrashing more likely in today’s conditions. Take a win and no injuries. Go Hawks.

 

[Hungdaddy]

Would be magic if Lewis dobs 5 on return despite the shitty weather!

Ah yes, Docklands wasn’t it?

I'm not gonna lie. But I don't trust us against this mob at the moment.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Club instagram has a post regarding the wind - Connor McDonald kicks a ball out in front of goal and it is a very strong breeze.

Bailey MacDonald is today’s sub.

Finn to Butters then?

[Yes, I know - should have used orange font.]

 

[Off The Couch]

My wish is for supporters to be able to give Ken a Fly By salute on the final siren

But…
I just don’t trust us against port
Please prove me wrong Hawks

 

[Mitchyy]

I don't want the team to get sucked into anything today. Best response would be just a super professional game and leave Port in the dust.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Time to silence these jokers once and for all.

GO HAWKS!!!!

 

[Off The Couch]

Did Derm just say that Chad is a runner for Port

The wind looks horrendous
