Game Day Round 1, 2020: Hawthorn v Brisbane Lions, 22 March 2020, 3.40pm @ MCG

[Roby]

OMG stfu about the press conference commentators... We know what it is going to be about just let us has a ******* game of footy.

What else is more important to comment on?

 

[RoughysMullet]

That's been his career

Thought he was past being Timmy almost- but here we are again...

 

[VandoHawk]

I know this game means nothing in the context of things but I’m really perplexed by our defensive and forward setups. We’ve talked all preseason about our forward structures and how we would fit all our talls - and yet we suddenly decide to play ONLY Patton & O’Brien. Every time we bomb it long Patton is deep against Adams and Andrews - how is that fair?

And then we decide to play Gunston in the backline when we already have Frost/Frawley/Sicily AND McEvoy. I would’ve thought we were already far too tall and vulnerable when the ball hit the ground without adding another 190cm+ player especially one capable of kicking 50+ goals.

Maybe Clarko is testing since this game means nothing.

Loving Frost & Wingard. Patton is also very handy with his second efforts. Not a high quality game but its great to see the boys out there and there have been some good passages.

 

[Zack]

Held on that quarter.

Would like cegs 2 do something in the ruck. Hes either non competitive or taps to Brisbane.

Would like worpel 2 turn up this year he's 2 practice matches were horrid as well.

Anyway like Liam Shiels, like Frost, like Chad, like gunna and can't complain about Pattons work ethic.

If afl is cancelled in the next minute would like Luke Darcy not 2 return 2 commentary ever again.

 

[Nastyfish]

Cegs ok in the ruck but McEvoy a Total waste down back. Fwd line looked good in patches, the pressure was ok. Patton doing his job. Burgers looks dangerous. Midfield is ok but lacks a bit of pace and class. There is hope for the future.

 

[The Filth]

FFS - Do you think Hamish could suck up to his brother morein his commentary -- yes we get it, the leadership of the AFL is good, no need lto carry on about it.
It's not a job interview Hamish.
Geez.

 

[MJA33]

Could they not have waited until end of the round before this? Announcing in the middle of our game? Very unprofessional. Also unfair on eagles and dees.

 

[Millsie69]

Well, enjoy this game while you can!

Yes you'd be spewing if you did a knee in the second half

 

[Brishawk]

Well, enjoy this game while you can!

If we win it will get a lot of watching. But if we lose...

 

[PT Bar None]

If we win it will get a lot of watching. But if we lose...

It will have never existed.

Same as the alleged 2012 Grand Final

 

[VandoHawk]

[hawkheart]

Dimma torn pec, misses one match.

 

[Nugett]

Bugger.

 

[Dr.J]

Poor JOM

 

[Slysh]

That goal is all on a pathetic tackle on the wing... Should have been taken out.

 

[SSSSSS]

Dimma torn pec, misses one match.

Superhuman recovery.

Wonder what his cycle is.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Well I try always to look on the bright side but I feel effing crap right now

 

[StillAtLarge]

Cmon boys keep me optimistic for the next twELVE months

EFA

 

[Pessimistic]

Omeara and Sicily. You can do much better

 

[SA HAWK]

Stick a tackle someone.

 

[wahawk]

Hopefully somehow the players don’t know yet.

I would say Clarko wouldn’t have mentioned it.
