There are two things I love in footy. Win the Hawks are winning and the Cats are losing... so right now I'm in heaven.
Despite some poor mistakes, I thought most of our team were nothing short of inspirational. Tim Clark was incredible. Guerra showed excellent form and will be someone for the young guys at the club to really look up to as a seasoned player.
Crawford was as masterful as ever. Williams did okay considering some of the angles he had to kick from, but definately not up to his usual standard... but how he held onto that ball for that last mark I will never understand.
To me, today highlighted that we will not lay down and give up, no matter how hard we have to work to stay competitive. Too many times last year Hawthorn gave up the chase, but that ethic appears to have changed and we have commited and passionate football players representing us.
Never dreamed this year would start out so great, and we have an excellent opportunity to go on with it over the next few weeks.
My faith is restored. Hawthorn, we love you!
