Thats cause No one else wants you and the Victorian government feels sorry for you, they should just build a massive fence around the dump and fly in food and water once in a while...
Sorry and some crack
That exactly what Dingley was before you built your home on it like rats.

How many Deb balls is it hoing to take to pay off the Dingley 'Community' Centre?

Yet they get dwarfed by Geelong.

90k members or GTFO minnows.

Hawthorn finished 16th, 13th, 14th, 15th and 9th in the five years leading up to last year and even started the season with a 0-5 record. Expectation was its lowest ever, and there was even talk of Hawthorn winning their first spoon since 1965. Club membership always lags on field performance and the Cats finished 3rd, 2nd, 3rd, flag and 12th in the five years to last year - where it opened its new grandstand.

Given this, for Hawthorn to finish 6th in club membership (when it was top 2 in every year from 2008 to 2018) is pretty darn impressive. Lets see how Hawthorn go this year with expectation and having its first Friday Night home game in 7 years (which sold out the MCG). 4 of its last 5 MCG home and away games have featured in the Hawks top 10 ever MCG crowds

I mean sure? Hawthorn did get 81000 (a sell out) last week against the Dons on a Friday Night. But sure lets talk about a Thursday Night away game when it was pissing down (a game the cats drew 54,000 to, against the Blues, in perfect weather back in 2023)

Will you thank the 50,000 Hawthorn fans that prop up Easter Monday? As I said id rather ditch the Cats, give you back the game (at our home game) and play the Tuggers or GoDees instead

Fairweather Hawks. Nothing changrs..

Make no mistake, Hawthorn is the biggest fair-weather, bandwagon fan base in the AFL. That is without question.

A good Hawthorn turns any game against the big 4 and Geelong into a 70,000 crowd (when its not pissing down on a Thursday Night)

That's why #freekickhawthorn exists and why the Hawks are playing the Giants in Tassie. They are the ultimate yo-yo club (with the Dees)

I'm just saying that 63,000 on a Thursday Night (as disappointing as that was) is not a comparison with Footscray’s 100 years of failure game against the biggest club in the AFL at their home ground.

Haven't seen you banging on about crowd sizes here for 10 years so I know you're talking from experience.

Yes, I'm sure you would, having won 3 out 14 Easter Monday fixtures 😺
But ducking out of a marquee game and looking for gate receipts and an easybeat opponent...
That's not very Hollywood, is it?
