Preview Gameday Thread. Hawks Vs Pies

[LuvMyHawks]

Gee, I can just imagine what Hodgey is thinking, and it won't be good thoughts!!!We miss him so much, as usual no one to kick to in the fwd 50! They call this a "gameplan"??
Sewell gets the ball, kicks it to the goal sqaure, and guess what??? NOBODY THERE AGAIN!! When in the hell will they rectify that?? So fed up with this style of play..Surely, surely, out of 18 players on the ground, we can have ast least ONE ruddy player there to kick the goals. If they want Buddy and Roughie to play up the ground, then perhaps we should find an other goal kicker!! Not good enough Clarko, if we, the supporters can see this deficiency, why can't you???? Has me beat! Can't watch this anymore, now watching the saints/crows game..Don't know how Clarko thought we could win today...I certainly didn't!! Not with this Gameplan!!

What is the go with Hooper?? Is he injured?? 1 posession in 3qtrs of footy doesn't sound like he is playing at all

He's done a good job on o'brien, to be honest.

Whitecross has been pretty good today also.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Come on Hawks, big quarter with better decision-making and disposal.

Murphy... Murphy... finds the leaping Buddy Franklin.

 

[Upgrayedd]

High to Franklin, if he keeps marking them we'll win.

 

[Flukey!]

Just 5 points in it.

 

[PunyHumans!!!]

More of that please

Cheers Galon, thanks for that mate.

Good to see Clarko is at least throwing a few challenges to guys like Hooper in the lead up to finals.

Collingwood a couple back and down by 19, tough ask from here.

 

[Gunbarrel Jack]

19 points now.

 

[whiteTiga2k]

Buddy kicked 6!!!!!! Omg omg omgomgomg

 

[Hawkforce]

They're front runners Collingwood.

We have their measure in the finals if we can get that far.

 

[TBoyleSuperstar]

Buddy breaks the 5+ drought for the first time since 2008. Good signs for the impending finals series.

Still 19 points due to a swan goal, but good to see Budmeister is hitting his straps.

 

[Flamin Joe]

Buddy kicked 6!!!!!! Omg omg omgomgomg

Telling stat:

1st half, same old s**t: 1 goal
2nd half, kick it long: 5 so far

Hmmmmmmm

 

[SJT76]

Telling stat:

1st half, same old s**t: 1 goal

[whiteTiga2k]

Hmmmmmmm

Tell the coach that!! Read on the pies board that they would keep Buddy to 3 goals today..At least we won that!! For what it's worth

 

[In2theWild]

And then there was ONE........point

 

[Hawkforce]

Xavier Ellis. Norm Smith medallist. Bookmark it!

 

[PunyHumans!!!]

Holy s**t balls...going on a rampage!

 

[Scrads]

Im only listening to the radio stream but it sounds like Ellis is playing the the house down.

 

[Hawker_Ant]

Stratton must get the Rising Star this year, if there is any justice. Not only has he been one of Hawks most reliable and stalwart defenders, he has kicked a goal, and managed to legally thug the Wobblers only ruckman (Josh Fraser no longer counts).

Badly missed Renouf in third quarter with his corked thigh. Every time Jolly went into the centre bounce against Skippy, Wobblers went forward, every time he was rested and Fraser went in Hawks got the centre breaks. Sort of puts into perspective where Skippy and Fraser sit in the rucking ranks. Expecting Fraser to be de-listed.

 

[Gunbarrel Jack]

you little ripper

gutsy win. absolutely gutsy win

 

[In2theWild]

Good enough?? You freakin' bet ya!!

 

[PunyHumans!!!]

THat was the most gut wrenching period of nerves I've felt for some time....**** yeah

 

[TBoyleSuperstar]

superb win. Absolutly superb win.

My only concern is........have we just helped the pies win the flag. Is this is rocket they needed before finals???

OR

Have we started the wobbles!!!!

please let it be the second option!!

 

[moginie]

What a gutsy, gutsy win. It's not pretty, but we got there in the end.
