Ah.. the difference between killing it and murdering it.Stats lie then......
Dow will be OK. Has the tools to kill it by foot, just has a minor case of the twitch happening.

Could Ed tag Wingard? Bump and niggle him all day.
Mate - you have a 'thing' for Polson - hope it all works out for the kid - right now on exposed form and across a lot of measures - I don't rate him much at all - except he has some leg speed and is young and goes as hard as he can for 4 quarters - unlike some so called 'leaders' - who I rate much lower.
It's not about Polson, who I think should go back to VFL level and run through the middle
I think the inclusion this week should be Kennedy and the likes of Fisher, Murphy, Thomas, Gibbons could rotate forward

We're beating Hawthorn's preview thread 32 pages to 4.
Guess you haven't met many Harry's.Whatever you’re comfortable with.
Agree .
Don't know what is going on with Kennedy tbh - clearly the Club doesn't rate him as a starting player atm..I would have thought he would be an automatic inclusion if fit...
Saturday was his first game back after a quad. Still, mixed messages.
My only qualm is Polson for Charlie as a straight swap really makes us unbalanced height wise and forces Gibbons back into the role he had for the first 4 weeks which is not where he should be played.
One of them even said to me "wow you beat the dogs" pretty sure that's something they failed to do.
Could you see Charlie getting the ball out to Murphy murphster ?What there missing is that JSOS is actually taller than Charlie and less agile to boot so we played with 4 talls last week as well, but because we used the ball better it worked like a treat which it would of against the Gold Coast if we used it better in that game. It’s a no brainer.

The essence of that, ideally is how it goes.This is how it happens in my head also. Clear, simple, upfront, all on the same page
I Did say I'm not expecting a win just their major confidence with a nothing start to the seasonJust to keep expectations in check, Hawthorn kicked a score against Geelong that would have beaten us in all but one match in about the last 18 months.
It doesn’t mean we can’t win. But for where we are at right now, it does mean we have to bring our very best.
When does Charlie Curnow get a game, in three weeks maybe?
Stratton, who was a late withdrawal against Geelong, and Shiels are set to provide the Hawks with a welcome boost against Carlton. The club also allayed fears in-form ruckman McEvoy could be out for several weeks and he will play this weekend if he passes a fitness test. Burgoyne is another week off. Minchington is set to turn out in brown and gold for the first time in the VFL on Saturday, while Koschitzke, Ross and Walker have to pass tests to join him at Box Hill.
Whoops! Brain fade. Charlie straight back in too. As good as Levi’s good bits were against the Dogs, he dropped a few easy marks that better teams would have punished us for on turnover.
And I’M warming to the prospect of McKay as back up ruckman, what a weapon around the ground he would be.
Again I felt like the Dogs played their best footy when Kreuzer was off the ground (and Levi rucking).
However I noticed at least twice that Kreuzer and Cripps went off together which I thought left us vulnerable.
Very true...They are so clean with the ball and have mastered the practice of keeping possession and patiently getting the ball into their 50. They have scored 87, 87, 87, 69 and 90 so far. So we probably need to score a decent score to get over them.Just to keep expectations in check, Hawthorn kicked a score against Geelong that would have beaten us in all but one match in about the last 18 months.
