Hawks have learnt that playing finals is a step up . They did well , but not kicking goals when you can ( had plenty of shots ) is why teams lose finals .
If you'd have said half way through the season we'd spend 4 hours inside the 8 on the last H&A round , i'd have taken it . We have had a good look at our depth and its looking ok. To having to play while the men's program went nuts , an injury list that really screwed us over , I am more...
Frustrating because we had chances to kick 2 goals in the last and missed both . Would think that result should be it for us this season , was always a long shot all things considered.
Hawks are cleaner with their handballs , are taking marks while we mostly aren't . And too to many time we have just bombed it in to the fw50 to no-one.
I think part of the problem is this team has been drilled to play a kick it down the line game , whenever the pressure comes on , the team reverts to this , out of instinct . New coach ,new mindset .
For me it was the 87 finals ( apart from the pre-lim loss) . We had waited so long . Watching Flower play in a final was something i will treasure for as long as i can think , and we played some amazing attacking footy , each to their own i guess.
