Autopsy Round 24, 2023 : Hawks slow to a crawl

[phlogiston]

Lack of forwards was the issue. Breust would have to have kicked 5 for us to have had any chance.

Just not good enough. Should we trade him?

Lack of forwards was the issue. Breust would have to have kicked 5 for us to have had any chance.

That’s been our main issue all year.

Comparatively speaking I’d say our midfield played really well this year and is tracking to be top 5 next year.

Our backline probably lacks a big gorilla key back but has quality in the likes of Sucily, Hardwick, Scrimshaw, Weddle, etc.

But our forward line would almost be worst in the league, we have two true quality players down there in Lewis and Bruest and one struggles to play more than 15 games a year and the other is durable but in his early thirties.

On a positive though I am amazed at how quickly we turned our midfield around so hopefully we can do the same with the forward line and start to push for finals in 2025.

It was a successful season, we didn’t finish bottom, we won seven games and it was almost ten and we beat the two teams that finished on top of the ladder.

Two years in a row we will have beaten the premiers.

You asked in the gameday thread what Longmuir's record was against the hawks. I went to reply to it, and noticed this sitting on the tarmac, unsent.

The only thing harder to watch than our final home and away game, is that God awful stat.
