Autopsy Hawks: 30 minutes not enough for 4 points...

[Dixie Flatline]

Dissect it in here.

Second half response was good. We are still a developing team but will certainly learn from the loss.

 

[Gday1]

Disappointing

 

[Brant]

This is every week until Cyril / Popeye come back & without a Full Back, unless we change the way we go about it - which we don’t

I hate it when Hawthorn defeats Hawthorn.

 

[Brant]

Second half response was good. Will learn from loss.

Will we?

What do you think we’ll do differently next week?

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

First half was pretty uninteresting rubbish.

Amazing how players just don’t come to play against some sides.

3rd quarter was good, but little too late.


Bruest the standout for us today.

 

[Cleavy]

Breust was great.

 

[Hodginator]

Making Daw look like an A grader. It’s all downhill from there.

 

[Hong Kong Hawk]

Fumbling, bumbling effort. Breust fantastic, but little else to be happy about. For the second year in a row we make Majak Daw look like Gary Dempsey FFS

Thread should have been up at quarter time

 

[MadDawg]

Meh.
Just one of those games when you come out flat and get jumped by a less talented team.
These games tend to dissipate as the season progresses when the games tilt to skill over just effort.
Bring on the Saints.

 

[Hawks1994]

Not good enough

Reset next week

Probably the reality is this team still needs to build their mental strength. Sadly the experienced players appear to struggle to instil this into the team.

Bradkli steal your login mate?


It’s a shit loss, but let’s not make out like it overrides the rest of our season to date.

1 pint of bathwater please. Utterly pathetic.

Spud Frawley. Thats god dam right.

 

[Sonny Hayes]

Great 3rd quarter but insipid first half. Too many passengers today, i could name a few players that i legit didn't notice.

Also Doc needs to learn his place in the team. He so much courage and always gives 100% but he seems to think he is some designated kicker. He took the first kick out of the game and he calls for the ball from Cousins taking a set shot 45m out from goal. Not meaning to single him out because he was far from out worst today but it is frustrating seeing that sort of stuff.

I hope Rough bounces back strong because that was very disappointing from the big man.

Smith, Breust, Hardwick and Impey were so bloody good. Fantastic! I love those boys because they really carried us today. Breust is easily in AA from and the other 3 were in everything today. I may have missed a few more but i loved the performances of these guys so much.

Really missed Shiels late in the game as well, he was really starting to take over the game. Hope he is alright.

Well done kangeroos too committed for us today.

 

[Sizzlesilk]

R Schoenmakers contesting across half forward please.

 

[Dewnior]

Good fightback, just lacked the class to put scoreboard pressure on early in the last quarter.

 

[asanque]

Good:

3rd quarter fightback

Sicily is a star (who need McGovern?) – query why we don’t move him forward when we do need a contested mark

Isaac Smith – never stops running


Bad:

First half

James Frawley – Must be dropped. Terrible and slow. Not sure if injuries have slowed him down but career at a crossroads. Bring in Brand.

Constant bombing into the forward line when neither Roughy nor O’Brien can take a contested mark


Very ugly:

Umpiring – cost us 4 goals. Didn’t cost us the match, but disgraceful throughout. Those three had no idea and should never umpire again.

The feral supporters who are calling for Burton to be suspended for a complete accident where he didn’t leave the ground, turned his back and had Higgins run into him.

Next week:

Outs: O'Brien, Frawley, Shiels (injured/rest)
Ins: Shoe, Brand, JOR

 

[Rioli2Gunstall]

Smashed us in the first with straight physical clean footy and determination. It was over after that, early since loss move on. Tigers lost by 10 goals early last year etc

 

[seysearles]

How did North not cross 100pts after that first half???!!!

 

[Sixpence]

Breust regaining his status as best small forward in the comp!

 

[Max Powers]

Breust and Impey good.
And thats all im saying about that game.
