Hawthorn 2016 NAB Challenge : squad named

[Bumpswithagrin]

Looking forward to this and seeing some of our younger players get a run.

I see Billy has Suckers' old number... low number, no pressure

...I see Billy has Suckers' old number... low number, no pressure

I'd almost ink his name in now as starting 22. Played 20 games last year and I reckon he was sub in half of them. Expecting a big year from Billy.

Is this game on TV anywhere?

Cheers. I'm in Brisbane for the night so finding a pub showing it may be problematic

 

[Bonscott1980]

Yay,footy back

 

[Bikefreak]

i hope we don't get people coming here and complaining if we don't win or not winning convincingly

I always try to see the underlying "silver lining".....but its getting harder to find as Clarko and Co have seemingly become awesome exponents of smoke and mirrors.
They can go at it as much as they like if it gets us another flag.
I do get a tad fidgety some games but.

If anywhere will have the game on it is the pineapple hotel. Just up the road from the Gabba and close to the city.

Yep, me too. Big vote of confidence in him to give him number 4 and I am very happy about it

ill admit ill be right into the game and supporting the boys, but hate it when you get the supporters that are like this isn't good for the future nor present haha

 

[Gralin]

I predict we will kick some goals and some points and run around and handball and stuff, might even "win"
Stupid preseason not available for free crap

We have to go 28-0 this year or it's an epic failure.

Cheers mate - would they open late on a Thursday? I'm hoping the hotel has pay otherwise.

Or even worse, writing off the whole season based on one indifferent NAB challenge performance, 'If we can't even beat Carlton without Murphy and Cripps we haven't got a hope this year' kind of stuff.

I'm still waiting for us to score over 200 points in a game. We've come close a few times in the last 5 years. 197 vs Port at the MCG was the closest I believe we've got in this era.

Keeping a side to a single digit score would also be good to see. Thought we could have done that against Carlton last year at Etihad if not for a few cheapies.

 

[Hawthorn United]

We have 2 chances this year against Essendon and Carlton.

Hope we can set some records in one of those games, depending on our situation in the season. Carlton is in Round 19 so if we're safe in the top 4, I rather we manage the team leading to finals.

Will a replay be available?

Feel like Bolton will get immediate improvement out of Carlton. Essendon could potentially be it. Hopefully get over 200 and keep them under 10.

Replay will be online 12 hours after the game concludes I believe.

We gave Carlton their biggest defeat in 150 years.

We wouldn't be such a successful club if we were so easily satisfied though.

Careful that didn't work out so well for Cloke and Swanny

 

[Agent Smith]

No Ceglar, so Pittonet would be playing?

Given Roughie is out I suspect our forward line will be pretty close to the one we will use in the regular season.

I'm guessing rucks will be Big Boy and Fitzy.
