Preview Round 14, 2021: Hawthorn v Essendon @ UTAS, Sun 3:20PM

[Hodginator]

Hearing unlikely we challenge Worpel decision.

This makes me angrier than it really should.

 

[Brishawk]

Hearing unlikely we challenge Worpel decision.

Disappointing. Is a second week at risk?

 

[H00t]

Disappointing. Is a second week at risk?

Only a $10,000 added to the soft cap if it fails. It’s a free hit, especially when he would likely get off.

 

[Hawk Dork]

Hearing unlikely we challenge Worpel decision.

Is it because he is slightly concussed from the Mills one and could do with a weeks rest ?

 

[parsons nose]

And you know this how? I don't believe you for starters. Ceglar has been absolutely dominating at Box Hill since he was dropped. He has definitely earnt his spot.

Ha ha. So you haven’t attended Box Hill games, I see. Now, supposing what you say contained an ounce of truth, why is it then that Reeves was selected ahead of Cegs in the first place, if Cegs has been dominating since he was dropped? The answer; because since his return to Box Hill Cegs spent the majority of his time there in the medical rooms. He had the fortune of making his return against a North Melbourne team that Spotswood would have beaten and backed up against an insipid Carlton side that never got going. To his credit he played well as a REPLACEMENT for Reeves on Friday. We have seen enough of the McEvoy/Ceglar combo over the past few years to acknowledge that it does not produce favourable returns over a sustained period. Doing the same things over and over and expecting a different result.......

Friday night was an outlier.

[Phil McCreviss]

Is that you Borat?

I like you. Do you like me?

 

[WireHawk]

Is there any news on how DGB played in the scratch match?
I can't find anything. Maybe I haven't looked in the right place.

We need him playing as much as possible.

Callow to debut at home ground please!

Big chance

That comment could extend to our whole midfield really. It’s really worked 1 weeks in 12 (and on a opposition who didn’t really fire a shot). We’ll keep backing in JOM, Mitchell, worpel, shiels, Phillips, howe, Morrison but when we know it doesn’t work over a season.

Would like an explanation from the club as to why we didn't challenge the Worpel decision if that's the case.

[Gaston]

The whole board knows how crap games are at this ground, should play it in Canberra, especially if snow is forecast

 

[theiaofseed]

Official word from the club, we've got this one boys.

[Roddy]

Have we ever played the bummers down there?

 

[Simon Crawshay]

Imagine if you traveled back in time to 1988 and told everyone that a Hawks vs Dons game would be played at 3:20pm on Sunday afternoon at Launceston?

They would have had you locked away!

Strange times we live in comrades, strange times indeed.

 

[RoughysMullet]

Great result- can’t imagine the Bummers have ever played down there

 

[hamohawk1]

Positive is that Tassie is a fortress and likely works a positive for us, but its BS that Geelong gets to stay home and play down there

 

[TylerDurden]

Have we ever played the bummers down there?

They've never played there.

 

[phreeze77]

Hearing unlikely we challenge Worpel decision.

We have no spine when it comes to these incidents.

What was his other alternative ? Let go because he can’t be certain the player won’t fall on his head ?

 

[Billyc]

That sucks. We’ve had so few good MCG games the last two years. Was looking forward to this one
