Autopsy Round 11, 2024 : Hawks poach the Lions

[madhawksfan]

The better team won today. They had the better of periods of the game but we didn’t falter. Great resilience after last week. The experience of Sic, Scrim and Gunner made a difference.

Huge games from Gunners, Worps, Sicily, Day, Mass (albeit some errant kicking) and Newk. Big last quarters from Moore and Croc.

Again? Don't you mean "still"?

Always proud of hawthorn but we copped it last year from other teams fans

 

[Cannyman]

GWS were 4 wins,7 losses this time last year. Just sayin'!

Great win boys made my day

 

[Roddy]

Got three winnable games leading into the week off too…

With all the flags most of us have seen there's never a time to not be proud to be a Hawk.

Yep, 12 of 13 in my lifetime, 9 that I can remember. No other team can equal that success.

 

[Makedonija]

Icing on the cake - only one in my tipping comp to back the Hawks. Much needed point.

I see Moore went to the Rocky Balboa/Ben McEvoy school of getting hit in the head.

No Gunston, no lions

Huge win that! Got NFI why they had the roof closed on a sunny day but a great game to see live and is clear we've absolutely arrived.

Thought Chol was immense, supported beautifully by Gunston and Calsher who both kicked clutch goals. Probably Worpel's best game of the year, while Will Day, D'Ambrosio and Meek were hugely influential. Another flying game by Impey while Scrimshaw and Sicily were massive ins back there.

Clear we learnt a lot after last week, and did we well to stem a surging Lions by kicking late goals both in the second and third that really turned the game back our way. Our last quarter was massive and despite looking like we'd capitulate we really kept our heads for what was our best win of the year.

Next year I genuinely reckon we will challenge. #Flagthorn

3/4 feels very gettable out of that run of games.

That would have us at 7/8 and I reckon 12 wins gets you in this year so not without a sneaky chance of winning 5 more in the run home.

Our % is awful though which makes it even harder.

Yep still would need a hell of a lot to go right. It would just be nice for the players to feel alive at round 17/18, because the last few years it’s been get games into the youth time

Eldo I regret to inform you that poaching wildlife is also a thing

How do they get them to stay in the saucepan?

[OnTheRocks]

No Gunston, no lions

The might make the Lions think of what last year's G F could have been if he played

 

[bungholes_premiers]

What a way to exorcise the choking all within 1 week

 

[Nick the Pig]

Such a strong performance across the board. Everyone played well and had moments. This team is growing before our eyes. So exciting.

Casts a big ugly shadow over part of the ground. Looks crap on TV and many players have spoken about not liking it either.

 

[Buzz Hawk]

Man I loved this Enter the Dragon/kung fu panda shit going on. I reckon Bailey Smith called his manager after seeing that and just said " hawthorn thanks

I thought for a moment there they were giving each other a namaste.
Kids these days.

The grass or turf itself looked very ordinary in places too.
Still we seem to like playing there.

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

Thought Worpel had a massive game. Day was brilliant. Gunston, whilst not in his prime is still a bloody good/smart footballer. We have the Lions measure mainly because we never play them up there.

Being a Hawks supporter is becoming something to be proud of again

I've always been proud to be a Hawks supporter. What's been stopping you?
