    Preview Round 9, 2026: Fremantle v Hawthorn, 7 May 2026, 8.10pm AEST @ Optus Stadium

    Had a revelation earlier that Ryan could be in to partner Hardwick in matching up on both Bolton and Dudley. With Weddle playing up the ground, we can't really afford for Impey to bogged down in a blanketing role. We need his run and carry.

    Trades 2026 Round 9 Trades

    Probably going to end up being a bit boring, but with 26 trades and 3 boosts left I may as well just try and consolidate. Bruhn, Jagga and Grlj To Petracca, Houston and Burton

    Preview Round 9, 2026: Fremantle v Hawthorn, 7 May 2026, 8.10pm AEST @ Optus Stadium

    He's been spending a fair bit of time in the midfield. Will be an interesting battle in there. Freo are copying our homework this season, where all the mids are doing their bit, but they aren't relying on one guy to get 30 touches every week. Brayshaw and Serong are absolutely destroying...

    2026 Rolling All-Australian Team

    Plus that next group behind them, including Connor Macdonald and Justin McInerney, who both in any other year would probably be everybody's 'smokey's'. JHF has been a little inconsistent, but his best is still elite as well.

    2026 Rolling All-Australian Team

    Bailey is in, so swap him with Pickett or Bolton for a bench spot if you'd like. Cameron has been fantastic, but Watson's pure score involvement ability probably has him just ahead.

    2026 Rolling All-Australian Team

    Newcombe is a lock right now IMO. Likewise Watson. All bias aside, they are the only Hawks players I'd have in currently. Is this forward line against the grain, or close to the mark? Bolton Treacy Pickett Watson King Georgiadies

    No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10

    The ugliest 'neutral' match-up in the AFL. Geelong vs Sydney not far behind.

    No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10

    The ball was still in play. Also, my mate is generally a fair operator. The fact he was quite harsh on Smith's response to it likely means it was a sizeable hissy fit.

    No Oppo Supporters General AFL discussion and other club’s news - Part 10

    A mate of mine involved in the AFL was near the benches for Geelong and North Melbourne yesterday. After Bailey Smith was sling tackled, he came off the ground complaining that 'nobody came to support him' and it required Tom Stewart to console him.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Cam Nairn

    We all want our draftees to be dominant from the beginning, but for a medium sized half forward/wing, popping up with 15-20 classy disposals and a goal game is a great way to start his VFL career. Will only get better from here.

    Personally, if Sicily is healthy I'd do... In: Butler, Perez Out: Weddle, Maginness

    How do I reverse my McAndrew to Horne-Francis trade?

    Serong is almost worth a trade out. Absolute shell of the player he used to be.

    Opinion Who is currently the best player in the AFL

    For an opposition supporter, I'm actually a pretty big Daicos apologist. In saying that, I wouldn't have had him in the top 3 players on the ground last night. Maybe top 5 based on sheer numbers, but the umpires have got another thing wrong if he gets Brownlow votes. Newcombe, Houston and...

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    To be fair, constantly bombing the ball inside 50 to Collingwood defenders for 10 minutes straight every quarter, then failing to defend tight enough on the subsequent Pies rebound resulting in easy goals was pretty shiiiiit. Aside from that, I really liked our midfield performance, aside from...

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    It's quite crazy. All mental too, which is the frustrating part.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Pick 7, Cam MacKenzie, extends to 2026!

    Thought he was in our top 5 players. I'm feeling a bit more comfortable when he has ball in hand now.

    Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn : Jai “Duke” Newcombe - 2024 Peter Crimmins medalist - extends to 2032!

    He's the best set shot in our side IMO. When he missed that regulation shot in the third quarter I just knew we weren't going to win. Didn't expect a draw, but if our best kick for goal was missing that then it simply wasn't our night.

    Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn : Jai “Duke” Newcombe - 2024 Peter Crimmins medalist - extends to 2032!

    Not a chance. Duke will get 3. Connor Mac 2 and Houston 1. They're even more clueless than we already believe they are if those aren't the 3 players rewarded on Brownlow night.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    Turned it off when D'Ambrosio missed with 40 seconds left. Had to wait for a mate to message me before I discovered we'd somehow snatched a draw. An out of the box performance from Collingwood. You'll never see 15.3 from 32 inside 50's ever again in AFL history. And we couldn't have played...

    Sicily's ankle cost me a ton. But I'll take 86, considering the beautiful Connor Macdonald went BIG 😍

    Does anybody know if this will be the record low amount of inside 50's to win a game if we end up getting rolled?

    I refuse to believe the forward 50 conversion in this game isn't some cosmic joke on every Hawthorn supporter.

    Feels like we've owned the quarter. At this stage we've lost it on the scoreboard though.

    Really thought the slip up was going to be last week against Gold Coast. Probably the most confident I've ever gone into a game, and we dish this up.

    This is practice match levels of competency from both teams at the moment.

    Game Day Round 8, 2026: Collingwood v Hawthorn, 7.30pm @ MCG

    This feels like the Port game at Adelaide Oval last year, where just everything seemed to go wrong against what we believed was a poor opposition.
