Autopsy Hawthorn defeats the COLA Swans

[Dewnior]

Not sure if it's been mentioned but I remember thinking midway through the last quarter that the game had an eerily similar feeling to the 2012 GF. I even started calling Papley Malceski in the last quarter when he started pulling goals out of his are.

Just goes to show how far we have come since 2012.

Ha ha, good point.

I always see lots of Dan Murphy ads!

Damn! That's why all I get is Wiggles and Play School ads...

Although, that Yellow Wiggle is a bit saucy

Yes, but the Wiggles are not going to turn you into an alcoholic.

 

[The BIG X]

At least the commentators can now drop the standard "he's kicked a goal in every game" line they trot out.
My gawd, they may have to think of something original!!

I reckon he'll kick a bag against the Tiggers this week.

Provided he is not held onto or continually scragged

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

The reality is that if Hawthorn kicks straight, the Swans struggle to beat us. Simples.
3 of their last 4 wins are on the back of abnormally bad accuracy by Hawthorn

2016 Round 9 - Hawthorn 7.13 (55) Swans 10.9 (69)
2015 Round 8 - Hawthorn 9.15 (69) Swans 11.7 (73)
2012 GF Hawthorn 11.15 (81) Swans 14.7 (91)

Some credit to them though is that they probably pressured us into missing and forced us to take low percentage set shots due to their defensive structures (say what you will about flooding, if it gets them a win you can't blame them for doing it).

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

Bad conversion is bad football.
Simples.

Putting your cliche aside, bad conversion is something that you can directly influence. The point is we create enough to win. The Swans struggle to score more than 70 points against us regardless of how well they play.

 

[HR Roughnstuf]

How many other paid rag writers broke down a piece of play this week and put their opinion on it? Slobo and his arse bandit mates?

Thanks, but I'll take his "petulance" over the gossip riddled crap of almost every other rag written article this past week, even if I don't agree with his opinion.

[HR Roughnstuf]

There is one thing about Hawthron that fascinates me. That is the protection and resting, by position, of players throughout the season and this year it seems it has happened more than ever.

It has two massive benefits;

1. It is prolonging careers
2. It gives hawthorn options when they need to turn up the heat - options that very few other teams have, and options that are very difficult for other teams to plan for.

Burgoyne is the most obvious example. He gets hidden away in defence most of the year. This protects his knee and reduces his load generally. But then as soon as Clarko identifies a couple of games that requires something special - Port and Sydney - he moves Burgoyne into the guts.

Sydney have been planning all week to shut down Mitchell because if you do that you shut down hawthorn, thats what the media says, and when Burgoyne lets loose they have no idea what to do.

This is the other thing that fascinates me about this year. It is possible that the Hawks have over performed which is what their percentage suggests.

It is also possible that Clarko unleashes Burgoyne and Hodge and Lewis and Rioli and co for a whole month in September and the Hawks completely dominate.

I still do not know which it is but am obviously hoping for the latter.

I'm always amazed at how seamlessly Burgoyne goes into the middle. How does he maintain such excellent touch.

And his clearances are a thing of beauty, as opposed to just hacking it forward, he is able to really get clear of opponents and exit stoppages, with time, space and composure.

Yes, but the Wiggles are not going to turn you into an alcoholic.

You're obviously not a parent with any experience with kids favourite shows on high rotation.

Hi 5 seems to have the girls do baby talk rule, I can't escape the feeling the makers of that show could have a little pedo in them.....

I'm always amazed at how seamlessly Burgoyne goes into the middle. How does he maintain such excellent touch.

And his clearances are a thing of beauty, as opposed to just hacking it forward, he is able to really get clear of opponents and exit stoppages, with time, space and composure.

Burgoyne is the prototype of the perfect footballer. Great size, aggression, defensive skills, power, pace, magnificent kick, football IQ. He just doesn't get the massive possession count but then sneaky handballs around the back is not his thing. He is a freak.

Driving by yourself singing along to a kids CD, eventually you realise what you've done, then there is nothing for it but to go home and drink heavily.

It's been 20 years and I still know the words to john jacob hinkle heimer schmidt



It's always interesting reading articles from others perspective but what I found most interesting is that he singled out the newer players and their faults but none of the stuff ups that senior players had committed earlier in the game and the fact that the million dollar man couldn't buy a goal
