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

    Excited for this game. Will be a very interesting test for both sides. Dockers have a great list. Well balanced across all lines. But how they deal with the intense pressure game from a top side is untested. They crumbled when Geelong brought the heat. How we go playing interstate against a...

    2026 Trade/Free agent targets for HFC

    What King has Melbourne doing is such a strong endorsement of good leadership. Their list has not improved by Petracca and Oliver moving on. But Petracca did not want to be there and everyone at the club knew it. Oliver was a toxic influence. King moved them on, clean slate and they are...

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Pick 18, Josh Weddle - now locked in until 2030

    I don't think we can afford to move Impey. He's in brilliant form.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    I love how King's whole schtick is stats stats stats, but not when it doesn't suit his BS spin on this game. He's a shocker.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn - Mabior Chol

    Dear hasn't taken his opportunity and Chol should come straight back in when fit. We really missed him last night. It remains a question whether we persist with 2 rucks or whether we go 1 and Chol as the season progresses but regardless, Chol has a place in our best side at the moment.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Nick 'the Wizard' Watson! Rising star Nom!

    He's the most exciting player in the game and we are so lucky to have him. A top 20 player in the comp now and getting better and better. I feel he ignites us almost every week from moments of slumber.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Pick 18, Josh Weddle - now locked in until 2030

    I'm not sure VFL is going to do the trick. It's mostly kicking execution that is stopping him from having a positive impact. Kicking isn't his strength obviously but it seems to be confidence driven at the moment, especially when kicking for goal. I always liked the idea of him forward but we...

    Toast Welcome to Hawthorn, Finn Maginness “absolute Hawthorn nuffie” and a Hawk to 2027

    This remains my view. When we play sides that bring real defensive pressure like the Pies did and like Geelong/Sydney/Brisbane do, Finn's decision making and skills are not good enough. Really like the guy but I don't think he's in our best side unless we use him as a tagger which just isn't...

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    It felt a bit like that during the game too. Felt all game we'd flick switch and get over the top late, and should have.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Connor MacDonald! Extended to 2029!

    He's a gun. The Watson, Ginnivan, McDonald trio is our biggest difference maker. Stars and all three would be in the AA conversation: Watson is a lock at the moment and the latter two probably compete with one another for a spot.

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    I'm reasonably sanguine about the result. In practical terms, we are well short of Sydney and Fremantle in percentage so it's as good as a win with respect to them. We're close on percentage with Brisbane and Geelong so less so for them. The rest of the teams are making up numbers in terms of...

    Autopsy Round 8, 2026: Hawks bottle it

    Given our percentage compared to other top side, that is closer to a win than a loss in practical terms. Probably the result we deserve. Don’t deserve to win when you kick that badly including some absolute howlers. But Pies were equally arsey all night - they don’t kick like that often. And...

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

    Loved Lewis’ quarter. Pies have flooded our forward line all night and given no space for Gunston. In that Q Lewis marked and goaled twice and and brought 2 to ground for crumbing goals too. Was a presence

    We are very lucky to have Watson and watch him every week

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

    Big quarter from Lewis. Gunston well beaten by Darcy Moore and pies giving him no space. Lewis stepping up as he’s needed to

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

    That 5 minutes has been the difference tonight so far. Newk wasted an easy set shot, they took their set shot and then Daicos nails a class goal.

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

    That’s a real let off from Newk. Would have been a dagger

    Real poor there. Pies giving up no space in our forward 50.

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

    Probably fair. Lewis been very poor too. Need a lift from both, at least giving better contest.

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

    7.3 to 5.10 is the story. Pies are playing good disciplined footy and we have been wasteful. Should lead by 2-3 goals but glad to have it back to a manageable margin. Wizard the ignition as usual. Massimo and Impey very good. Weddle is really out of sorts. Pies defence doing a number on...
