Preview 2024 Preseason: Hawks v Dogs in Tassie

Remove this Banner Ad

Thought Philips had a good first hit out given how badly we were beaten out of the middle.
Lots to like from Wiz, French and HH.
Good wake up call for Worps, Reeves and Chol going into the season imo.

Doggies again needing the momentum assistance package at times- somethings never change!

He doesn't represent the rest of us. I think Watson is a beauty and will have a great career, it's no secret that he was our 1st choice had he fallen to us too.

Thanks mate.
Sanders does look an absolute gem too and I’m sure him and Watson will be tearing it up for many years.

Reeves giving us ruck dominance
Watson’s score involvements
No injuries

Disliked
Second half efforts
Contested marking all night
Defensive setup
Rest of midfield group looking horrible
Hardwick looking lost
Sicily looking extremely casual (doesn’t have much to prove but still)
Ward should be getting more involved
Chol’s lack of physicality

For the 2nd half effort, lets hope its because they have had heavy training loads and were planning on playing exhausted.
 
Thanks for passing on Suckling. Massive contribution to our flag after we ended your era and went onto winning the flag
Your next post will be an apology for being a douche.

You’re clueless. He was never our 1st choice 😂😂😂. It was all media driven. Get your head out of your ass and stop offering fellatio on an opposition board you clown
 
Just a practice match and getting away without injuries is the most important thing.

Some young blokes had good cameos in the midfield especially in Q2 but without Day, too much will be left to Newk unless the bigger bodies in Worpel and Nash play a lot better than they did today.

Forward line looked dangerous when the midfield was firing in Q2 but ultimately the midfield was beaten up for most of the game. That left the weak backline exposed and the forward line starved. Not unexpected with largely young midfield against Bont, Libba etc but Newk will need better support when the real stuff starts.
 
Your club has been dog s**t for 7 years and counting
As soon as you have to pull out a line like this you're either:
  • too young to be allowed to use an online forum safely
  • in deeper than you thought you'd get
  • didn't start reading until late primary school
  • Weak as piss when it comes to bant
 
Our flaws were seriously exposed for 3 quarters . A glimpse of what could be in the second.

The Bombers game will be interesting. How often can we play near our best?
Will teams continue to dominate us for extended periods?
If Sis is a non factor our backline is woeful. If our mids don't protect the backline the flood gates will continually be open.

We all know who the clown is.
Go into your bathroom.

And look in the mirror.

DGB and Ward two of our top 10 picks looks like extremely poor drafting

Too early on both but Ward looks very vanilla ATM. Needs to find a way to get involved more which hopefully comes with more experience. Likewise Croc. Looks very good with ball in hand but is in and out of games a bit too much ATM as well. This is where the improvement will come. Ward was at least better than both Worpel and Nash who were horrid. Both don't really have an excuse like our younger guys. Let's hope they both switch it on in 2 weeks and today was an aberration.
 
Other than Breust and Newcombe, our more senior players were disappointing. Need a plan B to arrest momentum shifts.

Imagine being that starved of success and in such pathetic need of validation that you'd feel the need to go on to an opposition board and gloat about a game 8 years ago because your minnow afl-underwritten club is winning a meaningkess pre-season match against a side that finished bottom 3 last year. Just embarrassing really.
 
We are so reliant on so few. When it gets hard, a few go missing.
Still lacking a marking forward to help Lewis, Chol just doesn't have a physical presence to help. Athletic when playing 2nd ruck but as a forward, just not encouraging.
 
Thanks for passing on Sanders. Serious Selwood vibes.
Your either pissed and having a laugh or your a w***er who gets their kicks out of trolling. Not sure anyone who supports the Dogs should be on our board rubbing our noses in anything. Your better now but I know who's history as a club I would rather have and it's not even close. Good luck with the control freak Bevo.
