Re: the Hinkley incident (and apologies if the point has been made), does anyone else find the 'Hawthorn have dished it out all year and need to be able to take it' narrative from the media and opposition fans a bit disingenuous? I can't really recall an incident where we've dished it out to...

Maybe. But I think that disadvantage (if it exists) is offset by the advantage of the Dogs hardly playing at the G all year.

Think our small forward brigade gives them headaches as well. Ruck and midfield battle will be huge.

No different than Sicily or Ginni. Would love him at the Hawks.

BOG average is still a significant upgrade over what Wingard gives.

Pretty average first 10 minutes in terms of quality. Maybe just nerves.

Good summation. Gil also said that he had spoken to clubs/representatives of people named in report and expects them to make some kind of announcement today regarding their future going forward.

Good to see your priorities are in order.

Lewis kicks 5 and gets the 2? In a 64 point win? Right...

You've obviously not seen any of Mitch Lewis this season then.

Great career. Amazing that he only received one AA. Deserved at least two or three more.

I never said it did?

FWIW, I have heard Barrett say a few times that he is a big fan of Sam Mitchell. I think a lot of the media are. He was always very calculated and rational when it came to his media dealings. Clarko, in contrast, can be more emotional and combative. I think Mitchell (when he eventually gets a...

One thing we need to do at the draft (in addition to looking for elite talent across the ground) is draft some potential leaders. I don't see a future Hodge, Lewis, Mitchell, Roughead in terms of leadership among the current crop other than JOM. We are bereft of leadership. No one stands up when...

Yep. At the ground and every time he touches it you can feel the energy lift in the crowd.

Ups?

Ceglar seems to give away a lot of freekicks at around the ground stoppages. No idea if there's actual evidence to support this or if I just notice them when they occur.

We went conservative with our ball movement despite having the momentum.

It's undeniably a reason. Half their goals are from freekicks.

Not that it really means much but Gunston, Wingard, and Sicily in this side and we're much closer.

Very poor from us after we goal. Just let them respond far too easily.

O'Meara is just not a very polished footballer.

Outworked and out-skilled. No chance with both of those happening.

What an egregious error that poster made by claiming it was 25.

A lot of fans really struggle to see that players, coaches and other club people don't view certain teams/players the same way they do.

Right. He's saying they are good, not some all conquering side. Which is a fair assessment.

'We lowered our colours to a good side last week and I hope I’m not discrediting Geelong by saying it but they’re not that good. We were just terribly poor.' He literally called them a good side in his quote.

To be fair he didn't say they weren't good, just that they weren't 'that good' to make us look that bad.

Underrated Stratton moment is the end of the 2014 GF. We're up by 10 goals and most players are soaking in the atmosphere and euphoria after every play, any heat from either team well and truly gone from the game. But Stratton still feels the need to go back with the flight of the ball during a...
