These are great wins. Fully tested. Found a way. Held on.

Sad for Acres. Hopefully just a little hammy, but didn’t look great.

Yep, the Hawks were good and applied amazing pressure which we withstood and outlasted. It's incredible that the Hawks have beaten Geelong and Brisbane, lost to Melb by only 10 points and take us all the way on our home ground, but can't beat a bottom 4 team.
 
If it was grade 1 off the bone he would have been on crutches after the game.
Emotionally he has been so invested in the purple, he worked hard to become a top 10 player in the team this year and it probably all flashed before his eyes.
Bloody Hammy's 😭

Acres emotions would have been because he has worked so hard to get to the position he is in, there is always uncertainty in footy and it hits you all at once when you go down like that.

JL hopes it wasn't a serious one so fingers crossed for him, JL also took some pressure off him saying he will be rewarded, I liked that, reminded me of the Ross story from Kepler, Kepler did his ACL but Ross told him on the bench that it's all good you'll be back next year, guaranteeing him a contract and taking all the pressure off.
 
Thought it was great that we didn’t get everything our way but we found a way to win. Good learnings to take out.

Happy with Fyfe’s return. Think we’re going to be bonafide premiership fancy if we can get the Brodie-Fyfe balance right without either dropping output.

Bravo Freo! Let’s enjoy the break, lick our wounds, and get ready for a huge back half of season.
