Game Day 2024 Round 07 Hawks v Bloods @ MCG @ 4 PM

[The King!]

I reckon Bud would be a bit dissapointed with 0-3 in gfs with the Swans

Played like s**t in 2 of them

 

[Citrus22]

Play like we did in the first quarter, especially the first half, against GWS next week and the game will be over before quarter time. If you don't believe, suggest you watch their highlights, especially the game against the Lions.

Except we actually have a pressure game, lions jogged around for 3 quarters

 

[wolftone57]

If we ever start hitting targets this is going to get ugly. We had so many opportunities to punish them that quarter and stuffed very ordinary kicks. Not only that, We seem to be playing this dreadful handball at all costs game. We seem to be practicing this game. Normally, we are a kicking team not a HB team. It seems we are practicing this style & it is in the early stages of metamorphosis.

 

[TheMase]

Wasn't he the only player in the 50 at the time though?

Heeney was about 30m out but ran the other way. Wicks ran up to a trainer (anbout 50m out) and had a drink with several other players nearby and none went to him.

But yes when he scored only Heeney was nearby

 

[The King!]

I can live with the errors- not so much the unforced cutesy ones, but the general mistakes under pressure . As long as our workrate is up and we are running both ways, which today we are

Tbf, he rolled his ankle 30 seconds into the 2nd one

 

[JackHiscoxWasFast]

been good to see us play some uncontested measured footy this game vs the chaos ball v tigers.

 

[Mister B]

8 points behind schedule on the margin. 25 point increased margin per quarter gives us a 100 point win. Not too much to ask. Need to pull our fingers out, do the simple things right and stop overthinking things.

 

[The King!]

Should we at least have put an anzac patch on this round?

 

[wolftone57]

Time heals all.

Plus you know. They are all hopefully professional.

I thought they got around him when he kicked his first goal last week. But interestingly, they did not get around Wilbur? Weird.

 

[Jeffers]

Mclean has the best set shot technique out of the big 3 and has bottled all 2 set shots.

Warner equal leading tackler which is great to see

 

[The King!]

Tbf, he rolled his ankle 30 seconds into the 2nd one

Yep he did, but still didn't play well

 

[Mister B]

“I wanted to come and thank all the Hawthorn fans”….

What about the Swans fans in Melbourne Buddy?

He’s made to say it. Scripted. Notice he isn’t wearing a Hawks scarf.

 

[Punts]

Parker Will definitely be in for gws

Looking like for Campbell

Yes.
I’m sick of the cute errors. Ffs don’t walk off the mark if you don’t know what you are going to do next.

 

[The King!]

Buddy went all black, it's more slimming

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Hayward copped a real as well as the usual metaphorical kicking. Pity as his 5 possessions and Grohan like inferred pressure and dozen outlet marks really broke the Hawks.

Sub in Campbell.

Campbell is sub though, so who we taking out of the game?

Presuming all fit, different names crossed my mind during the game

Jordon, Fox or Wicks would be my guess

 

[the hypnotoad]

I dunno, Daicos and Merrett will get votes in games they don't even play

jeremy cameron arguably the next best player this season after heeney

I don’t care whose scarf he wears as long as his kids play for the Swans

 

[Ed_Gein]

Can't be helped when the entire team, including the mids that are meant to feed him the ball, all shat the bed.

I still can’t see them dropping Hayward

Unless they Jordan

Sub in Campbell.

Hayward has been fine. Made some nice contests up the ground

 

[Wolfgang West]

Go for a run on a rolled ankle see how you go.
