What do you think of Hawthorn winning the 2008 premiership considering 4 years ago you were 16th and we were 15th? You are still up and down like a yo yo, we have steadily risen to the title of AFL Champions.
 
Well done to you guys.

To be honest, I think you no little or absolute nothing about footy.

Even though you finished 15th and us 16th, your list was further developed.

I am sure you agree that, teams fielding a 22 with the majority of the players between the age group of 23-27 are in good hands, yes?

Lets compare our teams:

Hawthorn

Hodge
Mitchell
Gilham
Osbourne
Ladson
Campbell
Young
Brown
Sewell
Bateman

Richmond

Newman
Hyde
Tuck
Coughlan
King
McMahon
Raines


See the difference? Some of the ones I listed for Richmond aren't even in our best 22.
 
Everyone knows it's not a serious question so get ****ed. A few things though:

You have done very, very well. Which actually has nothing to do with us believe it or not.

If we drop back down again next year, then yes we are up and down like a yoyo. But we won't. We'll make top 8, which will indicate another year of improvement.

4 years ago you had a number of core players in - or soon to be in - the age group that is so important of around 23-27. We didn't. We are approaching the time we will.

What do I think of you winning the flag? I was glad, because I wanted to see Crawf get one. If he wasn't playing though, I would've liked to see nothing more than your dirty side with it's dirty **** of a coach and it's unintelligent, arrogant, feral, bandwagoner's that are it's supporters get rammed into the turf.

Rofl. Next time try and troll a bit harder, this is one of the most pathetic efforts I have seen.

Without Buddy = Hawks not top 4.

You have done well there is no doubt about that. Our biggest mistake was exactly what you said, going up and down like a yo yo. If we had just sat at the bottom for 3 to 4 years and then made our way up the ladder if would have been a lot better for us now. Oh well, we are on our way up now and i expect to make the finals in 09.

Since you are obviously on the lookout for abuse with this thread, I will bore you with a serious answer to your "serious question".

I think Hawthorn have done well, infact very well.
Congratulations.

& I am somewhat jealous.

Now wipe it off before mummy comes in...
 
we took a different path to the hawks, because we had to considering we have only made the finals twice in 26 years and had plenty of frustating 9th's. We'll catch you guys in a year or so anyway. We had to take the slower path and Terry did the right thing
 
Congratulations for taking full advantage of the opportunities that came your way this year.

You have a flag that can never be taken away from you.

Now you have to back it up to earn credability in your own right and not just be remembered for the team that won the flag because the opposition threw it away.
 
Unless you posted this thread on all boards as a piss take I think you have seriously missed your mark. Have a look at your last loss big nuts. You should be thanking us for the 30 point touch up in round 20. And you should be grateful we did miss out on the finals.

I honestly thought Carlton were the one team that missed the 8 capable of doing the most damage if they made the 8 but after watching what you guys achieved I think I seriously under rated our side.

Congrats on the flag , especially for Crawf , funny bugger and absolute champion. Enjoy the Flag

I think they were damn lucky the Cats forgot to show up otherwise the Hawks would have been embarrassed in a similar way to the Power last year.

First things first,**** off! back to the Hawks board will ya!
Now having said that... yes congrats are in order, so enjoy your win and try to be a bit humble, after all Geelong threw it away.

4 points i'd like to make...

1. hawks had more players to trade, for draft picks when you bottomed out,we were a train wreck after the Spud experiment!

2. we are about 2 years behind you guys in re building our team... so watch out were coming!

3. You were blessed that Jeff Kennett is an Hawthorn supporter and was willing to give his time and expertise in the running of your club.... the guy got Victoria back on it's feet again, a footy club would of been a piece of cake for a man of his talent, so a lot of credit must go to him

P.S. i know D scott, I Dicker,J Dunstall and Dermie played their part as well,though we've all seen jeff at work before,and he usualy gets what he wants.

4. BE HUMBLE!! ....It Was'nt that long ago that Melbourne had the upper hand in the proposed merger with you guys:o....Be Humble!
