Autopsy Round 11, 2024 : Hawks poach the Lions

[smish]

Are you watching Cooper Hodge?

 

[Endorphin Machine]

Great response , we’re starting to turn the corner !

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Chol didn't get much of it but kicked accurately and made it as hard as he could for the Lions to clear the defence. Dear looks an absolute talent. Gunston rolled back the years, did the job on Harris Andrews

and kicked four goals from five shots.

The midfield stood tall in the first quarter then battled back when the Lions got on top.

Pretty sure the Lions managed three goals in a row as the consecutive goals given up, so that's a great improvement over the past 12 months when we would routinely go to water when the other team got on top.

Great win, and character building for the team.

 

[Billyc]

Newk lifted in the last quarter. Was massive.

And early, but quiet in between. Getting 4 quarter consistency out of him is very important. When he fires, he takes the team with him

 

[taurus]

Excellent display!

Other than the third qtr, the Hawks accounted for the rapidly declining Lions.

A big shout out to Ginnivan. He only scored a goal but his AFL Fantasy of 81 points only bettered by Gunston among the forwards. He was involved in a number of scoring movements.

 

[SSSSSS]

Chol with 6 tackles. Equal highest for the Hawks.

He had Berry on him at the start before he moved on to Worpel in the 3rd quarter.

 

[peetoo]

I never doubted the Win

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Day was magnificent.

Gunston, Sicily, Amon, Chol, D'Ambrosio, Worpel and Impey were all really good.

Mackenzie was brilliant in the first half but tired in the second half again. Hopefully a full four quarter performance is not far away.

 

[KermitJagger]

Have been critical about Scrim in the past. He had a dirty day, but he was solid in that last quarter as we played it out. Really turned it around and didn't drop his head.

 

[Hawk Vision]

After last week, they were tested again like last week (**** being at the game with my kids, and **** port) so stoked we got there….are we coming?

 

[Baz_hawk]

Didn't think Gunston for Wiz was a great selection, happy to eat my hat there. Was great today.
Worpel massive today, just a beast in the midfield today.
Also, shout out to Chol, 3 big goals at crucial times and 6 tackles and a lot of unrewarded defensive work. Also didn't really lose a pack contest which is all you want from a forward.

 

[Off The Couch]

Great win
Tested by the lions but lifted and took them on
Worps was outstanding today
D’Ambrossio has been a great pickup

Oh to have had the maturity of Gunners and Sicily last week

 

[Viddiot]

Great game Hawks! Well earned win, very happy to see as the Lions have got the wobbles, so it was a game you'd hope we presented well for. Sicily's kick into forward 50 to set up our 8th was fantastic, and great to see our forwards all leading to different parts of the 50 there!

Have a beer!

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Chol with 6 tackles. Equal highest for the Hawks.

His athleticism is unreal for a big guy. Him just being around makes it easier for Dear and Gunston IMO.

 

[peetoo]

Helps out our Brisbane linked draft pick too

[MinerBoy]

Terrific win. Played well all day. Responded when challenged. Ran the game out.



Great to have a team we own. Looking forward to adding Cats and Bombers to that list over the next few years.

[Paul Kersey]

Great win. Gee it's cold in this place though.

 

[Bremner20]

Did nothing after the first couple minutes.

When Chol decides to play like he did today he brings so much more to the table than Ryan , that closing speed and his crunching tackles are brilliant.

 

[TylerDurden]

Gunner. Sign him for 2025.

 

[HedgeFund]

A step in the right direction.

Very coachable group we have here and they definitely responded in the right way to last week’s result.

More aggressive in the last term.

Didn’t retreat into our shells when the Lions experienced players got rolling.

End result? A comfortable win

All good.

 

[Franko Armani]

Epic!

Meek, Worpel, Moore, Sicily !!! Huge!

 

[OnWardnUpWard]

James fookin Worpel! Take a bow son!

 

[CaptainWorpedo]

Helps out our Brisbane linked draft pick too

Didn’t we trade that for Chol?
