We have their R1 , R2 , R3 picks I believe so pretty good really, the Hawks are top 4 material but I'm barracking against them every week for sure.

That first rounder is gonna be basically a 2nd rounder if they win the premiership and the 2nd will be a 3rd ,

Should have just taken pick 12 and the third rounder for barrass and kept pick 3. Ahh well.

Denial: Not a good start for the death ride, still holding out hope though. Sydney far from their best line up tonight…

Acceptance: The picks are just going to Sydney as apart of the deal for the Chad anyway!!

Round 1 is never a great gauge.

But Hawks looked OK, not great. Very vulnerable on the rebound.

Sydney stank. And I don’t think Hawks had a heap to do with that. Some bizarre stuff going on where they had the advantage. But rookie coach so perhaps to be expected.

115 tackles for the game. Which given the conditions seems pretty low, but is a pretty standard season game.

Bit of a meh affair. Like I said, most round 1 games are like that and poor reflections of the year ahead.

Bang on. From a death ride POV, you come away from that going ah it’s a shame they’re 1-0 not 0-1, but they looked vulnerable as all hell on the turnover, even against a shite forwardline, and very thin up forward.

Then again, they played the SCG well, and then again again not all grounds are a one kick counter attack for inside 50. Best news is they’ve already played the club that employs Ollie Florent.

They’ll demolish Essendon, the sky will fall, then the death ride can actually begin.
 
Reckon Sydney were more bad than Hawks were good tonight - awful decisions, disfunctional forward line and a lot of their players looked totally lost in that last quarter. Wouldn't read too much into that one.

Those 3 picks we could bundle and get us around the top 10 next year plus we have our 2nd pick to throw into the points. A lot of Academy kids next year.
 
Bad night for the death ride. Listening to them finally acknowledge TB's brilliance is making me feel a bit sick.
I thought he was pretty average tonight. Got lead to the ball and caught holding the ball. Just shows you how the narrative flips when you are on the winning side
 
Round 1 bois. Anything could happen between now and finals.

If Hawks hit the mid-season bye with a dominant W/L ratio though then the trading team will look like absolute muppets.

We could have had pick 3 tho? Thats the point I was making.

I’d rather Baker and Pick 3 then Bo Allen and maybe a Pick 10 in 2 years time, we need top picks now not in a couple of seasons.

It was always just wishful thinking that Hawks were gonna tumble down the ladder after last season.
If we actually had the choice between their & Carlton's picks, and we picked Hawthorn, then we rly shat the bed given the position we are win.

If we had the choice should of at least hedged our bets Hawthorn 1st Carlton 2nd

Cleary but Hawks pulled the trigger, not many teams would’ve done that, that early in the trade period. Negotiations aren’t always easy but I’m hindsight your doing the earlier trade.

The way our list management thinks we might do split anyway. Also sounds like we were just as keen as a future 1st and their current, no doubt to position ourself for Warner.
It’s only one year, not 2.
 
Handing out flags in March. After the first game for premiership points.
