Can Hawthorn succeed while ignoring the elite end of the draft? - Part 2

[doppleganger]

Most Hawks would have snapped up 2-1 after Brisbane, Geelong and Richmond in their first three.

Scrimshaw (pick 7) slotted in nicely tonight.

And... we're back!

Undefeated at the MCG.

Hawthorn would've been sitting 3-0 if last weeks game wasn't at GMHBA Stadium.

Tell me what about my post is wrong??

How did scrimshaw go tonight?

Is Jon Patton 80 years old?

Has Tim O’Brien taken a mark this season??

Has Worpel kicked a drop punt yet this season?

Has Hanrahan hit a target, not been caught holding the ball, not fumbled or kicked a goal this season? Absolute dud.

Don’t get me started on ben Stratton.

 

[Sonny Hayes]

Shit flinging aside it was brilliant to see Scrimshaw get a chance and look really good tonight.

Going to be a good player going forward!

You will not drag us down into the swamp of sadness with you. Isn’t that right Gavin Excell

The better side won tonight. Doesn’t change Hawthorn’s inconsistency over the past few years which is a telltale sign that the ship has sailed. The reckoning is postponed, not cancelled.

So where does that leave Richmond? Over reliant on Duz?

 

[fnerd]

Tonight was kinda like the last stand of a former champion heavyweight.....merely delaying the inevitable

 

[boncer34]

Well..... Yeah but we already knew that.

 

[Whiskers]

Lloyd was right. Hawthorn will keep winning games like tonight but ultimately just end up a middle of the road side going nowhere fast.

Beating Richmond seems good as they are the reigning premier but they were horrible.
Did Clarkson mention that or only use that excuse for his side getting smacked last week?

We've self-indulgently taken our eye off the ball. 1-1-1 after 3, same as 1980. Too early to say if we've gone over the top.

You'll be fine mate

 

[Furn2]

Beaten the whole top 8 from 2019 in 12 games. This isn't a one off. Last week was.

 

[H2F]

Top 4 again. What a surprise

 

[matey]

Thank you to the Cats for last week. When cat urine sits, the bacterium in it will decompose and give off an ammonia-like, stale old urine smell. There is a second stage of the decomposition process which emits mercaptans, which are compounds that give skunks their strong characteristic odour. Tonight the odour finally disappeared!

 

[matey]

But we've been told we are all wrong and are missing the genius at work who's about to surprise us all because Clarkson is 10 steps ahead of the rest of the league

Is that the same Clarkson that has won 4 premierships in the last 12 years? Surely that is pretty good ahead of the rest of the league!
