Autopsy Round 1, 2021: Hawthorn defeat Bombers in a 40pt turnaround!

[Jethro!]

Gotta confess, I turned it off at half time.
Great ticker by the boys!

 

[Slysh]

Kent Brockman is going to be a really good player! REALLY GOOD!

 

[Badesumofu]

What a win! What a time for TOB to start clunking them!!! God damn that was an amazing win!

 

[Tassieboy]

That was a lovely win. Good entertaining game.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Great effort to come back from 39pts down. What a way to find the 4pts.

Lots of good things to come from that.



That umpiring was ******* horrible btw.

 

[smeltitdeltit]

Fittingly the game ended with an Essendon free kick.

Fantastic fighting spirit Hawks!

Was about to post at 3 qrtr time they were up somwthing like 30 to 8 frees in a evenly played game. Had that evened up we like win. It did. We did.

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Funny how the game changed during that third quarter when McEvoy was the only ruckman on the ground.

Disagree. Ceglar had a good second half.

 

[WWSD]

Hey Bomber fans...

 

[Max Powers]

CJ, Moore, Brockman, Hanrahan and Day.

Wow.....just wow!!!

 

[HAWKSBESTEVA]

A lot of keyboard warriors need to get on here and apologies.

OMEARA AND MITCHELL ******* MASSIVE!!!!

Mate they deserved the criticism. They only had impact in the 2nd half.

 

[glenferry23]

******* epic win.

Back to the drawing board for them.

 

[Birdofprey]

Great way to start the year!

Big comeback for win, something to draw on for the year.

Was pleasing to get back into the game, and still have enough composure to win it in a close finish.

Fantastic effort.

 

[James Colorado]

In the last couple of years, a 40 point deficit at half time would have been a 70+ defeat.

Tom Mitchell...for an 'ineffective mid' sure seemed to have a say in the second half.

McEvoy, what a captain.

As for Brockman, Moore, Kosi, Morrison, this is what green shoots look like.

 

[Dipper]

brockman showed that he may have a long career ahead of him

Yes he's already made the interchange of my greatest ever Hawthorn side, edging Cyril out to the emergencies.

[Slow Love]

Well ******* hell, what a win against the old enemy. Don't expect too much in 2021 but this was ******* incredible

 

[usernamegoeshere]

 

[Silky23]

I'm gonna say one thing...

Tom Mitchell. Wow

 

[killerspud]

Great that footy is back.

Great to comeback for a win

There's so much to improve on and realistically neither of these teams are contenders at the moment

But a win is a win is a win and seeing the bombers lose by a point is about the sweetest thing you can experience

Ps if there is a God please smite Luke Darcy - his commentary is worse than terrible

[Viddiot]

You F$#%&'# BEAUTIES!!!

We still seem to go missing for portions of a quarter (most of the 2nd tonight), we gotta find a way shake that.
Was very proud of the comeback in the 3rd. Great spirit for the club shown.
As it was seesawing in the 4th I was prepared to take a gallant loss, but the lads FOUND A WAY!

Well played. Learn and consolidate, get rid of the fade out portion of our game.

 

[Spursfan]

Wowser, haha I would've taken an honourable 4 goal loss at half time. Not this team baby!!

 

[MadDawg]

What a win!

Players should be super proud of their second-half effort!

The umpires should be ashamed of themselves for their disgusting performances.

 

[Off The Couch]

Hawks beat Essendon
Geelong lose

can the day get any better

 

[harrislp]

Oh yes, I thoroughly enjoyed that one. Oh yes, that was good.
