What are they saying over there now?
Basically we were their Richmond game of the last few years..
Everything went our way...
Lake sparked our hunger in the 3rd quarter..
They can't win without speed from Rioli/Hill..
Smith/Hale/Birchall all played crap games..
They had a 6 day break from an interstate trip in the wet..
They couldn't play any worse, we couldn't play any better..
We came out guns blazing because of the Brissy loss..etc

Funny stuff, total damage control. Nothing about us simply outplaying them.

Is it possible we could play them in the F word in Sept?

Thread needs a name change. "Delusional pearlers from the Hawforn board" or "Hawforn in denial"......

Sounds exactly like the media since Friday night.

Can't really blame anyone that tries to make sense of the fact that we lose to Brisbane one week and beat Hawthorn the next.
But they're not though.

It's just:

Oh Hawthorn must have been off tonight.
Hawthorn didn't try.
Oh it was Clarkson's first game back.
And I actually heard one football personality mention Hawthorn's injury list on Friday night... Look at our list!

I hate to generalise (okay I love to generalise), but let's be honest, Hawthorn fans are either educated idiots or those that wish they were.
First of all kudos for this confession. Secondly, this is the place for you! :thumbsu:

irrelevant argument I'm afraid. we play a completely different style of football to last season. our style last season troubled them, and yes we were close twice and unlucky twice.
this season our style will not trouble them. we are a completely different side and one imo not capable of troubling them.
Oops.

I had a great read of their '10 most hated players' thread

The loathing for Boomer put a smile on my face for an hour i reckon.

Criticizing Boomer for not laying 10 tackles a game, sitting off packs and getting the old 1-2, but then praising Birchall as the best HBF in the league and he has had 18 odd tackles for the whole season and has stunk up numerous games this year lol

Yeah, I noticed the booing of him dropped off a bit as the game wore on.

It's based entirely on the 07 final when 'Crawf', 'Jordy' and some other battler tried to whack him off the ball. Yet that makes Harvey the bad guy.
