My son regularly works in the commentary box with Brian (he's a sound engineer), and holds him in high regard for being quite amusing, very personable and not at all up himself.I know roaming Brian can be painful and often at times awkward, but there’s a pleasant human element to that cuts through the normal football talk that I don’t mind
He and channel 7 have created a great little persona for him
The temperature? I lived in Canberra for three years. Tonight was a relative heat wave. The minus eight I experienced several times there certainly concentrates the mind. Brrr!Still record low
All season it has been shown that if you run against Hawthorn and move the ball forward at all costs they struggle.
Wet nasty conditions which suit that style.
GWS have significant outs, but it was still surprising that they copped an absolute touch-up.
Greene was fantastic for GWS, not too many others came along for the ride.
Worpel’s disposal wasn’t pristine, but he’s taken a huge step forward in Mitchell’s absence, was excellent.
Big result for the Hawks and well deserved.
The T-Shirt Clarko stuff is overegged, but by Christ the bloke can coach.
Doesn't Worpel now statistically have the best second year of any player ever?? Like, better than Gablett and all.
Take away the 2 ridiculous free kicks in front of goals and the Giants only kicked 2 goals for the entire game.
And for all their injuries we were missing a bunch of key players too.
I wonder how nervous WCE are.
Giants were missing 8-9 best 22 players. Nearly half of their team. Of course even with those key outs they still fielded a decent on paper. I think the biggest issue for the Giants is the ruck depth which could be exposed in the finals.

Haven't they won the same number as Essendon in the last 25 years? I'd find another point to have a go at them over.
Good call
The Giants are the Hawks bunnies like the Hawks are our bunnies.
If Melbourne beats Collingwood and Brisbane wins against Gold Coast then Brisbane’s top 4 position is set. They cannot leave the top 4 as they’d be 3 games above 5th with 2 games remaining.If the Lions and Tigers win this round the top 4 is virtually set, thank you Hawkers.
We did the same thing to them last time in better conditions.
All teams struggle when they let the opposition move the ball forward at all costs. Hawthorn have been better than most sides this season at not letting the opposition do that to them - in all forms of weather. We've only had 100+ scored against us twice, and hasn't happened since round 5 (although with the lower scoring this year, not many are scoring over 100 now). The best defence in the competition according to the squiggle (in fact the best side in the competition overall according to the squiggle, because our defence was miles better than anyone elses by their metric, and so made up for our weak attack). Stopping 'move ball on at all costs' isn't why we are likely to miss finals, it is our inability to kick a score that puts us in front when our opposition does get a burst on.
Not sure what else you want Cameron to do bar go to CHB and try to boot it to himself 60m out?Surely Cameron under pressure. But he’s in NSW, So luckily can’t be targeted by Victorian media. Not gonna make top 4. The team underachieved under him.
Joel Selwood had a hell of a second year - 19 Brownlow votes and made the All Australian squad of 40Doesn't Worpel now statistically have the best second year of any player ever?? Like, better than Gablett and all.

I know GWS are struggling big time, but there was some worries, Mumford looks cooked and got beaten by Ceglar who had a shocker, They played some guys like Keeffe.Bonar.Stein who just looked average.
Bar Greene/Williams/Perryman a lot of guys didnt feel confident to run and take players on. I understand we clog the middle up pretty bad but we looked exposed with quick movement and that 40\50m bomb to a 2v2, Not sure if it was a lack of running from GWS or something. But it's not like we dont have some injuries to key players either.
We have looked exposed when teams are running hard and tackling harder. Simple work rate and daring football putting us under pressure, GWS did that only 15m all night and kicked about 4 goals in that time. Everything else was one way traffic.
Or hair. A few players rather be in the hot showers shampooing their long hairdos.
You did do the same thing to them so you would hope they would recognise that and change what they are doing.
Leon Cameron has got to go.
As for the movement thing. Second half of the season so far I have seen,
*North playing slow keepings off against you last week for a quarter and getting smacked. They opened the game up and then blew you away.
*Brisbane opened the game up after half and blew you away (This one you did kick yourself out of but once Brisbane opened up the game in the third quarter you looked toast)
*Essendon went full throttle from the start and handled you.
*I did not see the Sydney game so can't comment
It is why I think you are a really good chance of knocking West Coast off because they generally want to play slow which plays into your hands.
