talk with your own opinions not that of others.
id have hartung, O'Rouke, Howe, Shoey, TOB, Stewart/Lovell and Langers ahead of him

if you want to talk further message no more for the thread.

Stating what the only people that matter think.

When did you become a mod?

In case you didn't know Billy, Langers, Lovell, Stewart are Mids.
Thankfully here's available.... I'd hate to have relied on Schoey or Dan last week.

Thought Litherland had a really good game defensively but happy to see O'Brien back, can play either end and is a much better kick. Litherland unlucky though.

I still don't think TOB is ready to play finals in 2016, So I'm curious to see how Clarko lines up if our best 22 is avalaiable in finals ( Roughead aside obviously)

I went on the Sydney Board last week, just to say that I found an article that they might like to read on Tommy Mitchell and they said I was trolling and deleted my post. Sydney Board is hostile environment

Very touchy indeed although I have learnt that advertising the fun you have there seems to increase your punishment


...(but it was still worth it!!)

Too all the people who said i was a dick and idiot ect for wanting litherland dropped and saying thank god im not in selection

Thank god he is dropped

Have you ever been like wrong, man?

You're a champ!

 

[H2F]

Gus also laid a monster bump on Buddy in the last quarter that rattled the stands of the SCG.

You're still a dick and an idiot. You are just right on this occasion.

Had a bit of a chickle when I went to that stats site. Saw Kevin Bartlett has almost 2000 more kicks than anyone one else. Who said he was always looking to pass up a shot on goal.

Mitchell's fast twitch fibres are in his brain. Similar to Darren Jarman insofar as how much time he has. Jarman was at another level though skill wise. Sammy though has Jarman covered overall. I never thought I would say that in my lifetime.

KOLOKOTRONIS

Skill wise very similar credentials to Jarman. Jarman was of course the stronger and longer kick. Mitchell way more consistent.

Didn't get the nick name :Hungry," for nothing. Closest to him would be Boomer, who would also do the nick name "Hungry," proud.

 

[Stratton_Gun]

Have only been to a couple of games this year but will be making sure I go along to Mitch is 300

 

[Hawkboy62]

After watching most of the contenders struggling today I hope the boys are switched on tomorrow otherwise it could be a nerveracking afternoon. But most of all - no serious injuries. Go Mitch!

 

[Gralin]

This time of year is when the pressure starts building, clubs start thinking finals and this year with how close the 8 is those that can't focus on the now will end up in the bottom half of the 8
Our club should be in the best position to focus on the now with their experience. Keep our eyes on tomorrow and get the job done, no injuries or suspensions and let everyone else look at the hawks two games clear. Let that fear start to settle into the bellies that the Hawks will get it done again.

 

[Qlder_19]

don't stress all those with one brown eye and one gold eye went to training on thurs the lads looked sharp and and the bottom 6 of the tigers total no more 20 games. we are 1.5 goals a qtr better.

 

[jpzhawk]

Cats win, Saints win.
We take care of Tiges and go 2 clear of contenders at the top.
Big game ! Go Hawks !

ps - hopefully port beat $hitney phase 2.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Massive opportunity this to go 2 games clear on top of the table.
