Preview Round 18, 2022: Hawthorn v West Coast Eagles, 17 July 2022, 1.10pm @ MCG

[Yardie]

She's just a very poor umpire, wouldn't say she hates us, just no good at umpiring.

I'll take an umpire that makes impartial bad decisions any day over an umpire that chooses which team gets the benefit of a free kick.

Yeah so would I tbh, nothing worse than an official you know that has it in for you.

Seriously, don’t have full time umpires just get them a full time shrink. The job is doing some of their heads in

 

[Pessimistic]

Any reason why the club hasn't opted this as 'bring a friend for free' game? Have done it in years gone by and normally saves/ reduces the media article slamming us (even though it happens to other clubs) why 17k is a bad crowd for such a big club.

Friday night dogs v saints finals on the line marvel resident clubs 26k? Hawks who’s fans hate the place v crows bottom 6 clash on a Sunday graveyard with significant Ringwood train line running buses?

Seems about par for 2022

Edit forgot the Man U game on at same time

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

WCE don't have McGovern either. It's Barrass and 1 of their young key backs. No NicNat so their going in rather green in the tall department. Sicily the perfect matchup for Darling that leaves Blanck and DGB to take Kennedy and Waterman. Had Mcgovern been there Kosi would have played.

Kosi's 4th quarter was immense but unfortunately his first three were totally anonymous

Sam no doubt gave him a rocket I think. He went from MIA to having a big impact but shouldn't need a kick up the arse for that to happen. Rekon this is a wake up call. Be more assertive and have a greater presence in your role or you will be replaced.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Surprised that Kennedy is playing. Maybe the allure of one last game at the MCG.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

What's wrong with Eleni? Does she hate us?

Same thing that was ‘wrong’ with Kelli Underwood commentary on FTA games in the late 2000s. Glouftsis is no more or less frustrating than any other umpire.

 

[TylerDurden]

Shiels playing BH today.

Looks like Kosi will sub tomorrow.

 

[threesixpio]

Kosi dropped.

Structure wise this makes sense with BB and Reeves

…makes Sammy’s presser a bit lame in that he said it had freed up Nash and Kosi.

But makes sense

 

[chopflop]

Want to see Hardwick as our most offensive back again. The others to do the lockdown roles

 

[threesixpio]

I like this team btw.

Wow - some pretty crap performances there

 

[Agent Smith]

Wow - some pretty crap performances there

And some pretty good ones...

 

[SJT76]

Was Jeka good? Stats look ok

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Kosi or Morris was the right choice.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Wow - some pretty crap performances there

Almost identical to each players weekly stats, aside from Jeka getting more of the footy in a new role.

Dare I say Jeka to CHB?

 

[Judd2Sewell]

We don't need Jeka to play as a CHB. We will have Sicily, DGB and Blanck. We need a KPF foil option for Lewis, so unfortunately this seems like a last role of the dice for Jeka.

If Jeka doesn't make it at AFL level in some shape or form, it'll be very disappointing.

Wasn't someone harping on about his improvement ? Must be some sort of tagger.

 

[Dewyyyyy]

They mentioned it was a short term thing, I suspect it’s to get him in the contest and getting his hands on the ball. Sucks to be a forward in a team as poor as ours at VFL level sometimes.

Gee, I was hoping that after a few AFL games Callow would dominate back at Box Hill ... starting to feel he's in a bit of trouble...

Saunders hasn't even been named as an emergency has he? Seems done.

Good to see Jeka find the pill, but I'm a grain of salt with attacking defenders these days.. its so easy to get a kick... regardless, I'd be shocked if he's not given another year.

Phillips has a role to play moving forward imo.

 

[Hodgey 15]

Good to see Max Lynch putting some games together.
Wouldn't surprise if he's getting a seniors call up real soon.
