Happens far more often than the top of the ladder side would like!
It's a statistical fact, much like the current US Government taking the Australian government for a ride.
Good point. But you'd still rather finish first than 2nd or anywhere else.
 
Just watching the replay back, I can cop Hawthorn boys ripping into Bobby Hill for shirking it on quarter time but not Ginny. If anything he should be thanking Hill for carrying his lazy arse to the only flag he'll ever win

Hill was giving it to Ginni over something else early in the qtr im fairly sure was just a bit of return serve
 
Pies should win this massively, 5 huge ins, injured players starting to recover (houston, n.daicos) Hawks without their best player and their captain has been playing his worst footy in years while the rest of the team suffers.

I just don't see the hawks midfield surviving this at all. Don't trust hawthorns ball movement coming out the back either.

The only way Hawthorn win this without Collingwood just being ****ing terrible is if their pressure is out of this world and stops the pies from moving the ball and scoring on turnover.

If the hawks have poor kicking, turnovers, bad i50 entries then this game will be a blow out as they simply will have no way to stop the pies on turnover.

That said, Hawthorn are always a good matchup against us, should be a ripper.

Ginnivan and Ned Long revenge match going to be wild, especially Longy he is gonna be huge.
Happy with this

You can't be serious.... how the hell can any 'proud' AFL team have a tackle count of 36 in a poor defeat, then back it up at the same ground (their home ground) with 38 the next week and not only that but their opposition, the Pies have 82 tackles with a 44 deferential, that's BS and you say "hold your heads high'.... surely you must be trolling cos that is effen disgraceful and I'm sure every Hawk supporter would be pissed off big-time knowing that fact, as I'd know if that was my team who put in that disgraceful and unacceptable effort, I would be.

"Hawthorn has seriously struggled in its tackle count in the past few weeks, recording 36 against Brisbane and 38 on Friday night"

They did their best, it’s just where they are at as a football team. I think they should be proud of their efforts :rainbow:
 
Cats SHOULD run away with this but I hope the Eagles contest it out. It’s there for them if their leaders continue to stand up.

Baker, Kelly, Duggan, Allen, Ryan and even Flynn all been good.

Need their younger guys to lift to add to the run and carry thru the middle and break the lines. Harley, Hewitt and Hough in particular.
 
i remember saying Buddy should have retired during that Grand Final he had a horrible finals series except for a couple of cheapies against us

Agreed.... no one likes to see the champs go out on their last legs which further amazes with Pendles and Sidey as this year up to date they've been effen amazing, with Sidey even getting BOG... he's gotta be kidding !!!
