In case anyone didn't know, Jai Newcombe is on Unfiltered ch7 tonight after the Front Bar. You will have to put up with Romping Wins though

Wow I wonder what the fine would have been for whacko Jacko?

You know, sometimes you don't have to write what pops into your head.

When you're in a Dr Seuss flow state you actually have to.

And his man bracelets. Romping Wins that is.

I dont mind a man wearing bracelets.

But I do mind when Romping wears them. It adds so much more w***ery to his aura

 

[seysearles]

Not sure where this goes but it has to go somewhere.

Nails it I reckon. It’s just so good to know that until the day I die i have the third quarter of the 2008gf and the 4th qtr of the 2013pf to watch. It’s the gift that just keeps giving.

Dis he miss any? 4th qtr of the 2026 Anzac Day games also deserves a mention

Thanks for posting, that was awesome watching.

Just on the cold and the Canberra game, if someone told me I had to be cold I'd do time. Hate it with a passion. Melbourne's winters, spiteful bloody things they are, can almost killed me. Was sick at least once a fortnight, moved to Queensland, and have not missed a day off work sick, since 2005.

Funny because i love the cold, but you ut me in any sort of heat and i am completely miserable. Spent the first 12 years of my life in NSW, moved to Tassie and could never go back North.

Even holidaying in QLD/NSW i spend the majority of the time miserable because of the heat or humidity. Chuck a layer or two on in the cold and it is totally fine

I'd suggest people wait for it to be put up on Youtube. Last time I waited for the Front Bar to finish to watch Hawks content was the Full Sweat documentary. The Front Bar ended up running 20 mins over and everyone had to endure Mick Molloy for way too long.

 

[Dinsdale]

Terrific suggestion for those without a mute button or patience for one show to finish.

Strapping Young Lad, thoughts on Essendon's out of favour Elijah Tsadas.

Do you think the Hawks should consider recruiting him if we loose players due to our depth. You were strong on his potential in his recruiting year. He puts up good numbers in the VFL. What is his failing. What do you like?

He’s literally just another Worpel. And we got rid of Worpel for very clear reasons.

's insurance claim. It amazes me that they remain a major sponsor for Melbourne.

 

[peetoo]

I was thinking yesterday back to 2023 when the Blues made the preliminary final against the Lions.

It was clear that they still were at a level below the absolute top sides based on that prelim performance and needed to improve their list depth.

Yet in the 3 years since then they have added basically zero to their squad and traded out Curnow, TDK, Silvagni, etc. They are a much reduced list in just three years.

Compared to The Hawks in the same time frame who were super aggressive in the trade period getting Ginni, Chol, Battle, Barrass, Massimo, etc.

One of the weirdest list management periods in any club I can remember TBH.

I mean even the Lions just did a back to back and went and recruited Allen and Draper!

Salary cap biting. Happened In 2002 too

Don’t get us started in insurance

I can help you out with this.
He would be a good pickup for the hawks.
The Box Hill Hawks that is.
He makes Finns foot skills seem Daren Jarman like, in comparison.

I’d leave that up to the Hawks talent identification team to understand if they can teach him to kick.

If they don’t think they can he can stay there.

That's why the Melbourne players have been wearing casual clothes to games, as opposed to wearing the team shirt with the Zurich logo.

Does the Zurich relationship have anything to do with Paul Guerra being sacked? Interesting the club show have board level turmoil when they've been travelling better than expected

He’s literally just another Worpel. And we got rid of Worpel for very clear reasons.

And Worps is a better kick than Tsatas ever will be.

 

[unitedhawk2]

Perhaps C.Hodge could even the score with Jai during our next pre-season...

 

[Argy]

I'm surprised that Jai looks taller than Hodgie.

Just watched this and then realised on the second watch i had this stupid big grin on my face, just sitting here at my desk.
God i love my footy club.
