Game Day Round 3, 2024 : Hawks Vs. Cats Easter Monday edition

[hawkman]

Had another run out with a ball tried to kick a goal from punt road right pocket, hit the behind post then slipped onto his arse

Felt like calling him the Wizard

Ladder position based off percentage means everything!

We might miss on the wooden spoon by % !!!!!

How’s that fair

 

[I got the outside word]

Hearing on the radio that we’re sitting around and the Cats are up and moving…

Was the other way around. We were up and they were on chairs chatting.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Prove me wrong AFL. 7 won't want to delay the news, game will be called off. 7 owm the afl

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

At least our midfield hasn’t been completely pantsed today, without it being super.

Halving lots of contests has had an impact.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

What a bizarre end to a bizarre game. I'm really not sure what to make of our season so far.

On the one hand our new additions in Ginni, Watson, Chol are providing excitement ànd Worps is having another very solid year.

On the other hand our established stars in Lewis, Bruest, Newk, etc are way down.

I feel like the collective is less than the sum of the parts at the moment.

Dunstall and King look like they're gonna punch on.

Greta Thunberg protesting about our midfield

 

[BlueWaterHawk]

Great optics sitting on our ass while the Cats are up and moving. Lack of leadership in the group

It was the other way around a few minutes ago. wouldn't read muchnjnto that.

Didn't think it was possible but this is worse than goal review.

 

[Kanga Commando]

Incorrect.

We are in chairs atm
Saw Duncan on the bike

 

[Phil McCreviss]

I'm not going to give my opinion on this but thoughts on Connor Mcdonalds goal celebration when we were 6 goals down in the first?

Dunstall will eat him alive, maybe literally

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Any reason Ward plays ok in the first halves this season and then vanishes

Sitting in the media box watching the game today.
Things that have stood out so far to the third quarter time break:

• Sicily playing as a last line of defence doesn't work - Geelong were always going to be playing a tall forward line - we took the risk but Henry has pantsed him today.
• Amon at half back can not defend - missed easy tackles, his opponent in the first quarter was Brad Close who was involved in lots of things.
• Sam Frost plays with a *load of heart and determination - Hawkins has kicked a few but Frost has battled manfully in defence.
• Lloyd Meek has given us something in the ruck that we haven't had for a while - he competes and competes. Has battled against 3 opponents from the Cats in the ruck at different times
• Nash and Worpel have both had a red hot crack - tackles and clearances - in the second quarter Nash was using his body to create space for the likes of Frenchie and Worpel to get the ball going forward.
• Breust missing that sitter in the first quarter deflated the team massively and Geelong kick 3 easy ones to blow the score out to 36.
• Chol has looked our most likely key forward today but also all season - Lewis nowhere near it at the moment which is sad to see.
• Massimo D'Ambrosio can hold his head up - at times he has thrown his body into contests that others have shirked at
• Wiz's defensive pressure has been a highlight for him - stopped a certain Cameron goal in the second quarter and just continues to harrass.
• Newcombe has regressed, but as we know with progression, it is not always linear.
• Frenchie has had some good moments today - he's coming along well.

What is it 30 minutes now and it would nice if the MCG PA announce something

 

[hawk for 37]

Until they become harder to score against they will remain uncompetitive. Bottom line.

Is there any info on what the actual **** is going on? Is the game resuming or are we being kept here for no reason. ****ing disgrace

 

[killerspud]

100% the correct result if it comes to that because they are 36 points up at 3/4 time

But that would be the case if they were 1 point up.

He was revving up the cheer squad

Terrible look. Hated it. We have zero leadership. And it was his first kick too

Bizarre eh. Not sure about this Night at the Roxbury sort of music on now either.

 

[RoughysMullet]

Bruest out for Butler next week

We are ahead in hit outs and clearances.
