Preview Round 10 2017: Hawthorn vs Sydney, Friday 26th May 7:50pm @SCG

[RUNVS]

Hopefully something comes up next Friday so I don't have to watch the game. It's gonna be ugly. And I won't be able to face Judas tearing us apart without a whimper. Might just watch the 2014 GF as a distraction.

Maybe he preferred the Romans.

Maybe he preferred the Romans.

Maybe he preferred the flags. Nob.

 

[RUNVS]

Maybe he preferred the flags. Nob.

Civilisation went backwards a significant margin for hundreds of years after the Christians took over.

 

[Agent Smith]

If Cousins comes in and he's rubbish should be some interesting reading on here

No pressure, but he IS the second coming...

Pseudo Echo my all tame favourite 80s/90s band.
Is Pierre Pierre still in it.?

Haha not too sure will be a good night though

Seems like your IQ did too.

I'm in Sydney for this game, tell us where you sit so we can come over and harangue you.

 

[becalm]

Willsmore isn't that good. Four years on the club list without getting a game tells you all you need to know.

You really don't like Willsmore!!!!!!!!

 

[WWSD]

You really don't like Willsmore!!!!!!!!

I have nothing against him.

 

[Gralin]

Willsmore has a nice kick on him. Can't find his own footy, bit timid when it comes to situations where he might get hit.

He'd be like a taller slower Hartung who can kick better and not tackle as well.

I think he'd struggle with the physicality at AFL level

Doesn't really look like we will find out though

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

I thought this before the West Coast game and I thought this before the Melbourne game. I think we'll win.

A poor week, playing a team that is on a bit of a run.

We've historically done relatively well in Sydney.

We got this one.*

*If Hodge is out I change my mind.

 

[Hawk Hawkins]

I think our only hope is that somehow Cassandra Sainsbury managed to get a pair of headphones to Buddy.

 

[db swannie]

TBH you guys were quite competitive against the pies and probably should've beaten them.

Mitchell seems to have been a very good pick up as well. He certainly knows how to rack up those possessions...

I'm expecting it to be closer than a lot of people think.

 

[threesixpio]

Why? I'd rather play him and see if he has potential to not be rubbish than watch the same rubbish from the same guys week after week.

We have one player who can win the footy in the midfield. Cousins is a ball magnet at VFL level. There is no good reason not to give him a go.

Nobody is expecting a star but given the pathetic performances we are getting from plenty of senior players, why shouldn't we reward a kid who is putting up massive stats in the VFL.

Play Stewart too.

Drop vickery whitecross duryea Henderson. They are all list cloggers

Totally agree by the way. I really want our midfield to get a shake up and why not give him a go.

Just hoping some are not expecting some amazing turn around based on an elevated rookie.

Thats right the point is we wont see. Why have him as a emergencey 7 times last yr. Play him in the jlt, He been in the best 5 times this yr.The vfl is very scrappy and hard at the contest Outside players can struggle there is more open space on a afl ground. Just give him 4 games and lets find out. Tom screaming out for a bloke with some polish on the outside. Hench 50 touches 300meters gained.

2nd note it was such a gallant effort buy the boys yesterday but i knew it would only be a matter of time before the pies star studded midfield ran over us.Shiels and langford are battlers and tried as hard as they could but thats all they are battlers so often the case they cannot compete for 4qtrs with other team strong midfields..they will win you the odd qtr or two in a game but that's it. Let's try a few more midfields plz it has been hard this yr all the one that are likely seem to break down.

 

[TheTruthBeTold]

they are tearing strips off you guys on the swans board. they are crying for a 100 game flogging. calling the hawks pathetic, weak, slow and soft. you should leave a post that says "2014" and nothing else

Brand (15 games) vs Tippett

Looks like it. However when there is no mathematical chance we can make the finals he may be given a game. That would probably be after the next three weeks.

Oops pressed the wrong button.

 

[becalm]

Hope Kurt gets another game, gives 110%. However if he won't be at the club next year as has been suggested then he will probably be dropped.

 

[Roughies Boys]

Aint nobody tagging Tom Mitchell. Had 0 influence on the game last night.

0 influence? Take a walk...

 

[A Cut Above]

Maybe he preferred the Romans.

I can't stand looking at that shameless attention whore in your avatar

Why wouldn't he be at the club?

 

[Lethality]

Stewart in for another midfield rotation and defensive forward pressure.
O'Brien in for another key defender if it becomes necessary, but otherwise as a key forward.
Brand in, without dropping Heatherley.
