I'm pumped. Really looking forward to this game.

GO HAWKS!!!

Another game on the road but we should go in confident we can make it 4 on the trot (which would be astonishing).

So impressed with how this group has developed in the past 2 months. First few weeks were obviously tough with the players lacking confidence, but each week you can see the collective spirit and enthusiasm building.

No doubt Brisbane will snuff out any remote chance of making the 8 next week, but a win here and in the last round to finish 5-5 would be amazing.

Keep the vibe of the show rolling Hawks!

Been fantastic haven't they ?

After the first few games I thought they would struggle to win a game.
They're improvement has been huge

Henson Park. Freaking close to concrete when I played there as a junior.

Then when it rained it was a bog.

Hope it's improved a lot. Go Hawks.

 

[spudmaster]

Let's go Hawkers!

 

[Pinoy Hawk]

Fleming to Duffin for the opening goal.

Must say I love watching the girls play. Passion and heart on full display. Great fun! Looking forward to seeing them in person against Freo in a couple of weeks.

 

[Pinoy Hawk]

The Irish connection (Gilroy, McDonagh) contributing for our 3rd goal.

 

[heh]

They have come a long way

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Free Kick Giants on repeat

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Feels like Giants have had twice as many possies

 

[Rimsy]

great goal from makur chuot there.

 

[Pinoy Hawk]

Makur … what a great play.

 

[MightyHawks86]

What a goal!

 

[BugZapper]

Makur Chuot!!

 

[Sixpence]

Great goal from MC!

We are getting smashed possession wise. Luckily the scoreboard does not reflect that.

 

[StillAtLarge]

We're riding our luck a bit, feels like we should be a couple goals down on the balance of play

 

[Rimsy]

Giants have missed lots of easy shots, only reason we're winning right now.

Girls are doing great when they have gone forward, scoreboard reflects it.

Giants 3 5
Hawks 4 1

If we keep moving the ball quick like we have been we could just win our 4th on the trot. Cmon girls!

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

Makur Chuot spoil, sidestep and slot it from the tight angle. Goal of the year candidate.

 

[heh]

GWS are playing better, but stuffing up in front of the goals, bit our girls keep fighting and are taking their chances.
Fun game to watch

 

[heh]

Fleming is going to be a lot of fun to watch grow

 

[StillAtLarge]

Just feels like the Giants' game will finally click at some stage and they'll kick away
