Eagles defending almost Rugby union style at the moment... pressure pressure and then kicking long for field position

And then lightning clean movement if they see a hole
Great bit of insight Willo, hadn't noticed it before but that is exactly what they do.
If they can't get the clear mark they spoil to the line then back NicNat and mids in at the contest

It's hilarious watching James Frawley try to play football.

I've never seen a more lost looking player, he just isn't the right fit at Hawthorn
It would be hard playing 10 years of football at a club without a game plan let alone the complex one the Hawks employ.

I hadn't noticed it before but they were right under the pump early in the 2nd then and 3 times in a row they hit the boundary long down the line... forced the Hawks deep, kept on the pressure and then forced the turnover.

And then they had the Hawks scattered and opened them up with clean kicking.

Their pressure has been huge, but they are just not coughing up easy possession, Darling before competed in a 1 on 2, realised he couldn't win the contest so spoiled it towards the boundary...

God I hope this holds up

Brutal effective footy and shutting down the team we love to hate!

Clarkson has never coached a comeback win by 32+ points after Half Time.
be interesting to see how Hawthorn cope now that they have to try and win the two games just to even make a grand final, let alone win it this year :D

Be saying it for a while but they were simply fading gradually this year and now they gonna get exposed big time. Be wonderful if they cop a couple of injuries in this second half. They sure as hell deserve it after all this good luck they have been blessed with since 2012.
