News Hawthorn in the media 2024

[Strapping Young Lad]

Just like last years thread, whatever Barrett has to say is not Hawthorn in the media.

Couldn’t care less for his shit takes, they don’t belong here.

Goodness me, has Hutchy always looked that disproportionately large

though remember Cornes also is a defender of Donuts Hinkley the under achiever...

What a frustrating show to watch. Asking questions and continuously interrupting the answers. Always talking over each other. No wonder it’s in a shit timeslot.

 

[theiaofseed]

So they can only show two positive comments in 3 years? But yes Cornes has been too positive. When did context stop being a thing?

Lloyd had written us off already. Love it.

We haven't won though, so it's a pretty pointless article.

Amazing that the narrative has flipped completely from it previously being boring Clarkoball and the exciting Hawks.

 

[VandoHawk]

I absolutely despise articles like this.

Against Essendon we kicked 11.17 and tried to take the game on at every opportunity.

Against Melbourne we had one quarter where we wanted to avoid Gawn, May & Lever but the effectiveness of the Melbourne press and our inability to execute led to stagnant footy. We did actually attack for the next three quarters, it just didn't amount to anything.

Agreed, it’s a bit like watching question time in parliament!

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

The fisst bit of this segment below is a joke as they've chosen to highlight and compare 1 quarter of football but Buckley was good in this, and by the end of this there's not much that they're not spot on with.

Midfield is the biggest concern for us right now, but perhaps Bucks is right.

I don't mind the heat, its completely idiotic and I actually think AFL media is a genuine zoo now but we get to see how we respond on Easter Monday

 

[theiaofseed]

Mind you, this whole North playing an exciting brand of football produced 3 goals in the second half of football under the roof vs a bottom 6 side. Gary you sure North a side you want to highlight here?

 

[wahawk]

Way too much media commenting on AFL & all trying to be more controversial than the next.

I don’t watch footy shows for this exact reason.

Some many bagged ‘The Footy Show’
It was light hearted shit

Now, any footy show, it’s just shit

 

[MasterSamurai]

Just for those the ' whole world is caving in' crowd just listen to Eddie and Jimmy podcast. Both believe the Hawks not only will be a great watch in 18-24 months and start making finals frequently and that we will stay there when we get there!!!! And ed also said the one player he'd take from any club is Will Day! There's talent on this list, just need more games in them and things will get better.

Agreed. V Essendon was entertaining but not winning. 3 genuine mark of the week contenders too

Fantastic article by Riley Beveridge this morning that highlights exactly what we’ve all been seeing in the midfield. The drop off has been so drastic and need to be fixed ASAP if we are to be any chance of winning games.

Jimmy Bartel is actually one of the better former players in the media nowadays. Doesn’t beat around the bush and get sucked into the clickbait headline type statements. Just calls it like he sees it with genuine insight and footy knowledge.

Staggering numbers in the midfield which sucks because our forward line and backline are significantly ahead of their 2023 metrics. Fix the midfield (no clue how) and we're a much more potent side.
