Craig Willis: " And the winner of the 2019 Norm Smith medal from the Hawthorn Football Club number 9 Shaun Burgoyne".

Shhh sshhh..... Shh - Craig Willis.

 

[MasterSamurai]

Champion!

 

[Todman]

2 years from 400 games.

 

[Spursfan]

Great news!

 

[Dinsdale]

2 years from 400 games.

will overtake Adam Goodes next year

 

[spudmaster]

Fantastic!
Am hoping this isn't so we can get a pick in the 90's for him though during the trade period...we kinda have form!

 

[Buzz Hawk]

Wow what a champ. Must be at least 46 now.
Love the bloke.

 

[IdiotBox]

Fantastic news.

Watching him play football is like watching a master craftsman go about his chosen trade.

Another year of Silk makes Simon Crawshay a happy boy indeed!

The Whizz would no doubt agree with you.

 

[KOLOKOTRONIS]

Massive news. What a player he has been for us. Can produce so much when the going gets tough. Valuable and needed.

The only thing better than this news, would be to have him be a massive cog in our next flag.

I'm seriously so happy that our great club brought him across, and gave him the support he needed to get himself to where he is and has been.

Incredible story. Incredible guy too. As good a player as he has been, and he is one of the greats, he is also an incredible human being.

 

[thejockey]

Great news was slightly worried with his two hammy injuries this season but his form certainly warrants it

As usual lifted a notch on Saturday in the last 5 minutes when we needed him
What a superstar !

Every now and then a player at another club comes along and you fantasise that one day maybe that player will come and play for hawthorn. For me, that player was Shaun Burgoyne. Has been great watching this bloke play for us and I’m stoked I get to watch him for another year at least

Just quietly, another player I fantasised about was jaeger omeara

if you could start fantasising about Josh Kelly then that would be great.

 

[Paul Kersey]

As great a footballer he is he seems a greater man. One of my favourites at Hawthorn and the type who is invaluable around a club. A complete package.

Can you please close your eyes and think nice things about Josh Kelly?

 

[Dewnior]

My fav player now that Sizzle has retired. Have said it before but will genuinely shed a tear when this Hawk great retires. Good thing that won't be for a while

 

[Dewnior]

One on one would beat every single player on our list. Not disrespecting anyone on the list , just that this man is the absolute package.

How about Sizzle? Still on our list (until October anyway).

F&$k you AFL for scheduling a GF on a Monday.

 

[eldorado]

Just quietly, another player I fantasised about was jaeger omeara

And he can play football, too!

 

[MinerBoy]

Huge man love. What an amazing footballer.

 

[Gralin]

Another year of Silk, yes please

 

[seysearles]

He is gunning for that games played record!

Who woulda have thought when he came to Hawthorn on crutches he would still be around and destroying teams today!

A Hawthorn great!

Currently on 353. Very likely to play 4 more this season = 357 (of course it could be more also )

Lets say 22 in 2019 = 379.

I think he could go on in 2020 and become the 5th player to ever notch up give 400 games. Would be an incredible effort.

 

[Jables]

I think everyone was like me and dreading his retirement if it happened, I want this dude to play forever. How weird is it that he's already played more games than Cyril?

 

[Buzz Hawk]

I wonder if he would make our team of the century if it were redone today.
Such is the esteem I hold him in that I reckon there would be a good chance indeed.
Maybe Salmon out, silk in!

That would be our team since 2000? Basically pick our 2013 premiership side and sub out a couple of the best of the rest and you would pretty much have it. So yes he would
