Here is a useless little stat, but at the same time quite interesting.
Since 2000: Every team that has eliminated us from the finals has gone on to be eliminated or lose the following week!
2000 Kangaroos
2001 Essendon
2007 Kangaroos
2010 Fremantle
2011 Collingwood
Anyone remember this game? Hawthorn entering the finals serious on the back of some very shaky form against a Sydney team that pumped us at home only a month before hand?
Many had written us off for this game, but to the Hawks came out fighting scoring a convincing win!
I have a good...
Had a discussion with a mate recently about each grand final winning team having atleast one aboriginal player in recent times.
Which year would have been the last that an Aboriginal player was not represented in a winning premiership side?
You would have to go far back as the early...
Hi guys, I have recently started an Australian Cricket Captain story on the gaming story forum on bigfooty. : http://bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?p=19896317#post19896317
I have started out leading Australia in the 20/20 World Cup in the West Indies, and have just guided the team through...
Hi folks.
I am in the process of starting a new story for the Australian Cricket team from 2010 onwards. The current team is in crisis, with selectors making big changes to the side.
I will look to blood new talent, and also try get Australia back to the top of the rankings where they...
Come on guys, enough of the hawks bashing.
Give Richmond some credit, they played a fantastic game, and surely would have worried some other teams on the day also.
Sure we were a bit flat at some stages but were still good enough to win in and old fashion arm wrestle style of game.

According to Mal Brown, the Gold Coast are interested in son Campbell Brown. While I would hate to lose Browndog, would it then mean that that...
Where is Kennedy?? I thought by now he would be deserving of a few more games as we have been injury plagued.
A big hard body of his would certainly of come in handy against the Swans for tomorrow. I really don't see why Shiels is ahead.
I have seen so many questions about what is going to happen in dreamteam when the Gold Coast enter, due to the whole bye thing.
Why not just award the players average score?
Say Geelong have the bye and I have Bartel and Johnson in my dreamteam. Then have their average score added on to...
Krejza has been killing it in the 20/20 state comp, taking wickets with a good economy rate. Not to mention his late order hitting. Get this guy in the team please!
Does Hawthorn still have a PSD pick left? Or did we take too many players in the NAB AFL Draft?
I was hoping we would be a chance to pick up Danny Meyer :)

No doubt the Hawthorn players will be shown this sometime before the big game. Such inspiring stuff from the great man!
Had to admire the way Chance Bateman went about it last night after Nick Stevens cheap snipe on Laddo.
Changa certainly let him know and beat him with the football when it counted. Love Chance's hard run and determination. Surely we could nickname him "The Rat"!
Was at the game yesterday, sitting pretty close to the Port cheer squad. Have to say they were a pretty vocal bunch which was good to see :thumbsu:
What were some of the chants they were singing? Sounded pretty cool but couldn't get any lyrics.
Box Hill Hawks 13.11-89
Casey Scorpions 8.14-122
Box Hill Hawks
Goal Kickers: M. Thorp 3, C. Pedersen 2, J. Morton 2, B. McGlynn, C. Hunter, S. Gibson, N. Batsanis, A. Grima, J. Bayliss

Boyle didn't look too good coming off the field in yesterdays game, anyone know what sort of injury he sustained?
Seeing it is a Tassie game next week. Will the Hawks bring in Thorp? Or Williams to take Boyle's place.
Probably the best game of his career from him! Did well around the ground with his accurate kicking. A couple of nice marks around the ground.
Well done Ellis!

Not surprising to see the (big 3) football states dominating the number of dreamteam participants this year. After all...
Footscray as of this weekend now have the most 300 game players at the one club (6) courtesy of Brad Johnson. With Hawthorn next in line with 5 but hopfully soon to be at 6 also.
Doggies:
Chris Grant 341
Doug Hawkins 329
Ted Whitten 321
Scott West 321
Rohan Smith 300
Brad Johnson...
It seems Croad will be out for awhile due to injury, why not try Boyle at CHB next week against Freo. Boyle seems to have the pace and body to be a good spoiler down back. At most we are only sacrificing 2-3 goals (Being generous) if we take Boyle from the forward line.
Would rather bring...
Have to say he is looking good fitness wise. I also like the part where he acknowledges that he was a risk being picked up by Hawthorn, but he is also prepared to give it his best shot!

They have milked the draft for the last few years, collecting spoon after spoon and 3 number one draft picks in a row + Judd.

Keen Hawthorn Footy card collector here. Would be interested to buy Hawks cards from any year, rare to common.
Feel free to pm with a list of any Hawks cards you may wish to sell.
Starting to look a lot more complete, and things are now falling into place!
HF: Hodge, Thorp, Franklin
F: Rioli, Roughead, Williams
I think on paper this would look to be the best forward line to go with in future.
Plenty of height without being too top heavy, Roughead, Thorp and...
