News Hawthorn in the media 2023

[Strapping Young Lad]

Please don’t bring Barrett’s sliding doors rubbish here. That’s not the Hawthorn footy club in the media.

That’s a desperate article, trying to get clicks every week.

 

[Topiary]

Need to start the 2024 season with a bang, then our money looks a lot better.

Player agents are fickle beasts.

 

[hardway]

Let’s start with FA.

Absolutely, but Jamara would need to be a trade , I can’t see it happening.

 

[The hands of stone]

Reckon English is the one that gets squeezed out. Especially if Darcy comes home (likely to the Cats).

Darcy most likely stays at the Dockers ......putting a very large long term deal to him

 

[theiaofseed]

Going nowhere.

Didn't Ginnivan say the same thing a day before being traded? Wingard was the same. Means Jackshit.

 

[wahawk]

Going nowhere.

Buddy Franklin loved Hawthorn

I’m pretty sure at 1 stage he said he’d like to be a 1 club player

Words mean little to many

 

[almuz]

Let's use our Warchest to really blow teams out of the water

1.4M-1.6M or something silly like that for JUH? Obviously backended and only that much coin for a couple of years before dropping off

I remember something about being 'a 1 player club'.

"I want to be a one player team."

The ultimate Freudian Slip

The funny thing is, at GWS he would have been at the time.

He loved Hawthorn.

He didn't love Clarkson.

He didn't love Clarkson.

Really not sure this narrative fits anymore. Didn't Clarkson attend his send off?

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Sure did. Doesn't mean he loved Clarko though.

Everyone's heard of how pissed he was when Clarko turned up in Vegas to get him to commit to Hawthorn.

Pretty sure he didn't appreciate Clarko gate-crashing his end of season trip.

Snap.

Depends, did clarko have the guitar? Nothing would have pissed me off more than having him sing at me.

Especially singing "Kum-Budwah".

 

[Mercy Seat]

Was sat next his old man in the send off and had Clarko’s name and quote on the front cover of his book. The two are close now.

It’s clear they had their moments like the Vegas trip but i don’t think you could say they fell out.

He probably loved his future wife and her desire to forge her career in Sydney just a fraction more.

 

[smish]

Speaking of Buddy has anyone read the great mans book?

Not his best work is what I've been told.

That was not the point.
My last sentence was the point

Heard it's just a heap of photos taken from google image search lol

The ultimate Freudian Slip

"The coach has the full backing of the board."

 

[Steven Tyler]

Especially singing "Kum-Budwah".

Not his best work is what I've been told.

Footy autobiographies are really bland affairs for the most part - I gave up on them a long while back. They are censored and ghost-written so are hardly likely to be as insightful as supporters want.

Mick Foley's first book gives an example of what the ghost-writer they brought in to write his book would have turned it into - and even if you don't like wrestling Mick's first book is a really fun read - and it doesn't sound anything like what the book becomes.
