Not necessarily, coaches can't send runners out between goals, you have no idea what the may have been screaming from the sidelines, twice today we have seen instances where players can't even hear the umpires. We are a young side, a mature side (Geelong) have on field leaders across all lines...

It's not a matter of caring about Hawthorn, it's the fact that Hawthorn live in your heads rent free...
