    Prediction Captain Birchall

    I’ll just leave this here...

    Gunston 2018

    I’m interested (and quite keen, really), to see Jack Gunston get back to his sharp-shooting best. I suspect with the heavy ground covering load he now has (as opposed to remaining forward) has affected his accuracy in front of goal. The guy was an incredibly reliable shot on goal prior to 2017...

    Roughy as captain

    i just saw the footage of Rough speaking after the loss to Gold Coast. I don't think he looks comfortable at all. I wonder if he's going to struggle in the spotlight ? God bless him, he's has his battles. I hope he's ready for captaincy and all it entails. Go Rough !!

    Sam Mitchell's Brownlow Year

    I'm hoping this is his year. He can't have much of a chance beyond this year, but he's been in great touch. Let's ride him in !

    Who was Hawthorns last great "Marker" of the ball?

    I am lamenting our lack of a great marker of the ball. Can we reflect on great markers of the past ?

    Max Bailey - cometh the hour...

    I though Max had a dominant game in the ruck against Geelong. C'mon big Max ! I hope you have a blinder against big Sandilands !

    When is Birchall back ?

    I haven't seen him mentioned for weeks. Where's he at ?

    We have a team of FOOTBALLERS !

    Playing tough. Not so much "flash" without Rioli and Lance (rightly or wrongly not scoring a heap), and it feels great ! So, so much to love about hawthorn right now :)

    Players who were a bit off form

    Unfortunately for us, we had a few players off-form through our finals series. There's a notable list of some of our more experienced players who weren't at their best when it mattered: Hodge (whether we like it or not, we expect greatness from him every time he plays) Roughead Birchall (I...

    Toast Clinton Young

    I see Clinton cops a bit of flak here from time to time, but I thought he really featured in the game against Sydney. He's finding the ball; getting himself to the right spots. With some fine tuning, watch him become a really damaging player through our finals campaign. He knows how to throw his...

    Some dodgy media work from AAP...

    "...Clarkson said the setback presented a good opportunity for him to assess his forward options as the premiership fancies head towards the finals, with Stephen Gingham, Shane Savage and Taylor Dread chances of replacing Roughead..." WTF !?

    Burgoyne's tank

    Is there some way we can relinquish some "all around the ground" responsibility to Burgoyne ? The lad's a proven gun. I never see him do much wong and am suggesting he could be being held back by being played to conservatively. Couldn't we let let him run free ? Would he dissappear if he were...

    Grimley - our next ruckman ?

    I can't profess to know everything about the quality and development of our up and coming ruckmen, but on the few occasions I've watched Box Hill live, I've liked the look of Grimley. He looks very athletic, and I reckon he's worth putting some focus on to get him in and playing at the top...

    Who will fire against West Coast ?

    I'm being optimistic here, and expecting a huge game from Sam Mitchell. I reckon Gibson is due for a blinder, too. Same old players :)

    Hawks eligible for Rising Star in 2012

    Who's eligible this year ? Hill if he gets a run ? Anyone else ?

    Who is Lance Franklins most difficult opponent ?

    He's about the most revered player in AFL at the moment, but who does he struggle against. Who do you think could shut him down now or in years to come ?

    What sort of injury to Shiels in IR football ?

    Does anyone know anything about Shiels' injury tonight ?

    A tall solid defender

    I love Shoenmakers and believe he will come up to speed and settle in to become pretty solid for us at the back. What if he weren't to ? Are we prepared enough in our defensive half ? Part of me still thinks we need a monster down there (in defense;) ) Maybe in the short-term?

    Luke Hodge's seAson 2011

    What's happened to Luke Hodge this season? Would 2011 ever be regarded as amongst his best seasons ? He's taken on the captaincy of the team, and lost the captaincy of the AA. We know he can be a superb leader, but has he brought his best game this season? Is there still time for him to make...

    Geelong stopped the Hawthorn "shark" dead in the water

    I think we copped a dose of our own medicine on Friday night. Completely starved of the ball at times. So many important Hawthorn players unsighted. Begs the question were we outplayed or outcoached, or both ?

    Schoenmakers in the Carlton game

    I've not watched the game closely. Peoples thoughts ?

    Demetriou's wish to shorten games

    Well, I for one think that is a stupid idea. Please don't turn AFL into 20/20.

    Top four - Why don't we flog weak teams?

    I'm certainly not complaining about our position on the table, or how we have been going about our footy (in recent weeks), but I'd just love to see Hawthorn absolutely bury a side. We seem to have been more in the 30-60 point winning margin in many of our games this season. Are we incapable of...

    Quiet week in the media for Hawks this week

    Is it just me, or has this been an incredibly quiet week for Hawthorn, media-wise ? I understand we had the bye, but I need something to talk about ! :D

    Will Roughie come back 100%?

    I, like most of us was pretty devastated when Jarryd went down earlier in the year with his snapped achilles. I miss him. Can he really come back 100% from that injury ? How will his playing in the future be affected ? I always thought he had some real pace once he was up and going. Will...

    The Cobbler

    I'd say sometime around 12 to 15 months ago, people were posting training pics of this kid on the forum, and he honestly looked like he was developing into a really big unit. Is he still developing in that way, or has he shed kilo's ? If he reaches the firsts, and finds some form, he'll be the...

    When will we see Savage ?

    This kid, Savage has been in the system for a few years. I've seen him once only, from memory, and he looked quick. Will he be used this year, Do You Think ?

    When do the delistings occur ?

    I don't actually know when this is supposed to happen. Can anyone tell me is there some deadline for delisting players ?

    What are we doing about our defensive deficiencies ?

    It's come up on this board again and again over the past few years, pretty much since Croad's career ended, that we have holes to fill in our defense. We don't appear to be going after big bodied defenders, so what's the plan ? Will Rough go back ? Anyone else we can throw down there ? A good...

    Beau Dowler - Will he stay or will he go ?

    A lot of posters reckon Beau's numbers are up at Hawthorn. I'd personally like to see him stay, and PLAY. Some say he needs to harden up. What do you think ?
