I think it is great you spend so much time thinking bout Hawthorn.Maybe I should type slower...
We're trying to dissect this year from last in order to isolate factors that may explain what has propelled you to the position you're in now. As part of that exercise we have already acknowledged that the Burtons, Hardwicks, Impeys, Mitchells & Omearas have played a part, along with the part played by your premiership players. The question is, have your younger brigade/new players contributed anything? On the evidence it is hard to see how, other than superficially.
