Welcome 2018 draft pick 52: Welcome to Hawthorn Jacob Koschitzke

[Strapping Young Lad]

 

[On Topic]

I'm really excited about Koschitzke's potential output this year. I didn't think he would make it as a forward so it was pleasing to see something that suggests otherwise.

Hopefully he can reproduce his performance where it really counts.

Lewis has never had a day out like this

Good point!

Nope.

Mozzie is the reason we didn't match on Mozzie.

Why no Mozzie. Kozzie was no good or Kozov Kozzie?

 

[grumbleguts]

So it's rare air.

Top six scoring shots in Hawthorn's history:

Dunstall 22 scoring shots (17.5)

Dunstall 20 scoring shots (12.8)

Dunstall 18 scoring shots (12.6)

Hudson 17 scoring shots (8.9)

Hudson 17 scoring shots (16.1)

Franklin 17 scoring shots (13.4)

Edit: I forgot to include Dunstall's 12.6 18 in 1992 against Richmond, as I was going to do the top five different players...

Was the top row (22 scoring shots) against Richmond at the G?

If I recall correctly, there was a passage of play late in the game where Piggy’s opponent (Scott Turner?) let a Hawthorn player walk into an open goal rather than give Dunstall the chance to equal Fred Fanning’s record of 18 goals?

I remember thinking, just kick it backwards to Dunstall as he would have probably taken the mark, the way he was going that day.

Yes it was. Also the 12.6 in third position was against them in the return game making his year haul against Richmond 29.11, 40 scoring shots against a single team in a season. To put that in perspective in Jack Gunston's entire career he has had 36 scoring shots against Richmond.

Waverley, not MCG

 

[The Chad and I]

Is Will Day floating or is he taller than Kosi?!!

 

[MrPremiership]

Is Will Day floating or is he taller than Kosi?!!

Thought the same thing

Day - listed at 187cm
Kossie - 196cm

I don't believe either would be correct

 

[Brishawk]

Is Will Day floating or is he taller than Kosi?!!

He is bouncing in so probably isn’t on his flat feet. Kosi not at full height.

 

[Flukey!]

Waverley, not MCG

Correct. I was there and remember it well.

 

[Flukey!]

The club is certainly pumping Kosi up.
I guess they know he can handle it.

I was at that game and remember what your talking about. I remember the Richmond player staying on Dunstall on the goal line and Anderson ran to the top of the goal square and propped for half a second, but the tigers player wasn’t budging so he kicked the goal past him.

My brother tried to get a copy of that game. They wanted to charge him $1000 because it had not been captured in a format they could print to DVD. Such a shame it isn’t available for viewing.

 

[Tomohawks]

Has Will Day really grown that much in the preseason if Kosi's 196 cm? God Damn if he has!

 

[Judd2Sewell]

That would be amazing if he did. But I'm guessing Kosi was maybe just getting up off the ground.

Day obviously wears lifts in his boots.

Waverley, not MCG

And the attendance was like 6 million that day.

My brother and I were going to the game, but the South eastern arterial was blocked due to roadworks
As Satnavs were not around, and I didn’t own a Melways, we turned around and went home (we lived near Kilmore)
Not happy Jan!

I lived in Vermont south at the time. Behind Burvale Hotel. Walked from there to the soccer club which was near Waverley. Our reserves were getting pumped so decided to walk to Waverley with a couple of mates. Best dumb decision I ever made.

Also Jarman got reported in the last quarter for remonstrating with an umpire over Dunstall not getting a free when another Hawk got one I think.

I was one of the six million that day, though I don't recall the ground being packed. I was sitting at the scoreboard end, to which we kicked in the last quarter. It was a privilege to be there! I was also at the Collingwood game there years earlier when I think the crowd was 90Kish. A lot of people that day were stuck downstairs and couldn't even get in to see the game. From memory, I think a heap of them were given refunds.
