Hawks in '89 guernsey with plain gold back and plain gold '89 socks - (not sure they ever wore white shorts in '89 though, maybe once vs Bears at Carrara)
Anyone notice the insane amount of scrubby mung kicks tonight by Hodge, Sewell, Lewis, WhiteX, Smith, Hill, Simpkin, Rioli, Burgoyne etc. it felt like Mitchell was the only mid kicking consistent drop punts. Just panicky rubbish ball in big matches and it gives our forwards nothing.
The predominately brown Away Guernsey is now up on our site - http://shopdesq.imgstg.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=Product&ProductID=30202&OrgID=1742
I reckon this would look pretty good with white shorts or even brown shorts.
I know there tends to be no rhyme or reason to how away...
My take on the jumper;
Pros:
The collar looks good, clean, not as needlessly chunky as Collingwood's has been in the last few years.
The front of the guernsey looks really good. At least Adidas haven't curved our stripes or other bullshit like they have with Collingwood. Like the front...
During GF week, I remember thinking of the words of Clarko after 2008, how the boys desperately wanted to snare another flag for Murphy. When the moment came for Murph to be a part of the flag in 2012, he was left out again after playing both finals.
It really felt like we were tempting the...
Hey Hawks Posters,
Just a quick one, and I don't want this to turn into a "bag out Morton thread", but in all seriousness, what on earth happened with him?
When he debuted in 2008, he looked like a real gun, 33 possessions one time, good disposal in the midfield, 191cm tall, apparently he...
Always a bit nervous about our clash jumper, seeing as we don't need one at all. Our home jumper clashes with nobody.
Our home jumper actually looks really good with white shorts too IMO.
Anyway, here are my thoughts. Would be great to see us use the predominately Brown heritage...
Old Dwaynepipe gives me the shits big time as a commentator, all his little sayings are so clearly rehearsed in front of his mirror...
Over the top goal in the goalsquare = "how do you like 'em"
Good set shot for goal = "struck it like a sweet kiss"
Average to good 30m pass = "that's a...
If anybody wants a laugh, go to youtube, type in Hawthorn Vs Collingwood Round 18, 2008 and watch one of the rarest sights in football...Nick Maxwell trying to directly stop an opponent :eek:
It's hilarious. Reward yourself on a Thursday Hawk fans...
Watch very closely how many of Buddy's...
Good Hawk supporters of the interwebs, I am desperate for any suggestions on how to watch this game live on my PC?
Get a load of this crap from TV channels/AFL up in the Northern Territory for Hawks fans. (Darwin and Rural NT)
Usually on a Sunday, Southern Cross TV (SCTV) shows the Channel...
Best of luck to Stratts - hard to believe he's such a quality defender after only one season with the hawks. Reads the play incredibly well, and seldom ever makes mistakes in the back half, which makes him a seriously valuable player.
Looked a very bad knee injury, all things considered...
Thread needs more Don Scott!!!
As a young fella I recall the single most biased piece of commentating in AFL history from Scotty in the 96 final we lost to the swans!
Scotty was pretty biased for 2.5 quarters, but after Dunstall wrecked his knee, Scotty spent the rest of the game openly...
This isn't a roast or a rant. Disappointed at the result tonight, especially considering we had an extra player for almost four quarters with Porplyzia off the ground. But it's round one. Still big upside for the Hawks.
Noticed tonight that we gave up alot of easy goals tonight with the crows...
Sheahan's Top 50: Burgoyne No. 21
Was interested to read further down Sheahan's Top 50 List and spot Burgers at No. 21.
Personally, I don't think Sheahan is as clueless as some Big Footy types would have you believe.
Burgoyne played in 16 games for Hawthorn last year, for the record of 11...
Have kept a really close eye on the GWS Name/Jumper issue. Although it is still a few hours from being official, I am disappointed about:
1. Greater Western Sydney as the official name - it sounds like a street directory, and it's too bloody long. Fingers crossed they change it to simply...
white patch, EVERY day of the week. Looks a million times better than the full gold back.
any thoughts on the full hawthorn heritage look, last seen in round 5, 2005 against Norf Melbourne?

Great left foot...
FWIW, nobody knows more about NOT winning premierships than the supposedly “great” Kevin Sheedy. Four flags in 27 years as coach, but geez those four flags covered over some truly GREAT Essendon sides that did bugger all for long stretches of time.
Everybody forgets the lamentable coaching...
Re: From Twitter: Gold Coast Suns
As a big follower of AFL History, I am really interested in the GC nickname announcement on July 22.
Reckon Gold Coast Suns is absolute rubbish. I seriously hope that is NOT true. The same goes for Marlins and Stingrays, bloody useless.
Gold Coast Sharks is...
Amazing Thread - thankyou!
Being in Darwin, I REALLY miss the Triple M call of the game. It's a shame BT moved over to 3AW, because BT, JB, the Chief and Garry Lyon was a great team.
Love JB's cry of "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
Love the Chief's cry of "NOOOOOOOOOOO"
Love the Chief's cry of "FROM THE...
Geez I would LOVE to beat the scum this Friday, it would make my year. I don't hate any AFL club more than those bunch of flogs.
I hate their players, their staff, and most of all, almost every last flog that supports the scum.
Throughout the early years of the 2000s, I went to high school...
This thread is not a whinge on the umpiring from yesterday's game, even though I believe the 18-6 free kick count to Geelong after half time considerably influenced the result of the match.

Honestly, how many skinny, undercooked college boys can Melbourne recruit? It looks like the freakin' dead poets society is running around in red and blue!
Nathan Jones goes alright, Colin Sylvia would be a great player in a good team, Liam Jurrah from bloody Yuendumu has potential, but the...
Fresh from not indicating and having a non functioning tail-light near Waverly last week, Josh Gibson has gone out at night time and been seen in the company of a beautiful woman.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek:
Here
DE-LIST HIM NOW! We don't take kindly to grown men going out at night, hooking up with...
what they have done to that jumper is a disgrace, and damn right, if that QC is going to get up in court and speak on behalf of the Brisbane Bears Fitzroy Football Club, then he should learn to respect the Fitzroy people.
Brisbane had the two best jumpers in the league, now they have the...
