Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Calsher Dear!
I agree, if we had taken Dear as a top 10 pick we would be pretty happy I would say. Love watching him play - extremely competitive, great defensive efforts and second efforts, great contested mark. -

Autopsy Round 7, 2024 : Hawks get pecked by Swans
100% agree on point 1, I remember this being Melbourne's big issue before they sorted it out. -

Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn: Mitchell Lewis. Extended to 2026!
One obvious candidate is Brisbane. Desperately need another key forward, in the window, don't need their first round draft pick this year. -

Training 2024 Preseason reports and discussion
Its funny how this time last year all of the discussion/hysteria with Hawthorn was about the midfield not being able to perform with the loss of O'Meara and Mitchell. Its amazing how quickly that has turned around, zero mention of it now. I like James Blanck as a player, see his potential, but... -

Unofficial Preview Round 1, 2024: Bombers v Hawks, MCG 1:10pm Sat 16th March
If you are see the Herald Sun article on who plays round one it won’t tell you anything you won’t have read in Bigfooty and some of the article predictably seems way off with what I read here - “At the other end, Sam Frost remains most likely to pair James Sicily, given Denver Grainer-Barras has... -

Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn, Tyler Brockman!
If Brocky chooses to leave to WCE, surely the Eagles have us over a barrel with the PSD. Our only hope of any value is if he choses Freo. -

Autopsy Round 22, 2023 : Hawks leash the Dogs
I feel like our forward pressure has improved a lot this year. At the beginning of the year it was bouncing straight out a lot and ironically we are playing taller now (3 legit talls now vs 1 resting ruck and 1 VFL tall in Greene). Am I reading this wrong? Any theories? I do see a real... -

This is true albeit there was a shot from 20-30m in the pocket that went straight up in the air where he looked like he had no clue. -

Autopsy Round 17, 2023 : Hawks go down to Giants
I was at the game tonight and focused on the forward line by moving ends each quarter. Yes we are kicking high balls into the forward line too much but I felt the cause wasn’t as simple as not lowering the eyes. There was great pressure from the Giants and a lack of forward line cohesion... -

Preview Round 17, 2023 : Giants v Hawks, 4.35pm July 8th, Giants Stadium
Absolutely, I assume he wants to shutdown someone like Kelly who is having a great year. -

Preview Round 17, 2023 : Giants v Hawks, 4.35pm July 8th, Giants Stadium
Interesting listen to Sam on SEN just now. Good to hear that Frosty is in the gun and needs to stop his offensive clangers or he will lose his spot. Please just handball to a player next to you Frosty ala Andrew Dunkley, Barry Round etc. Was hoping last week that Weddle could hold Curnow -... -

Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn, Denver Grainger-Barras
Sam just now on SEN - likes DGB's competitiveness, we have struggled to kick goals and lock it in. So obviously DBG will play forward and creating defensive pressure a key part of what he is looking for. Could this be the week of the scape goat comes good? Mitch Marsh scores a ton, DGB kicks 13? -

Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn, Ned Reeves. Extends to 2026!
Probably also getting some more confidence in his body after coming back from his shoulder surgery. I do notice that he often starts well and fades in the second half, feel like fitness is still an issue. Looking forward to see him continue to develop. -

Autopsy Round 2, 2023: Sydney torch Hawthorn
I was at the game yesterday and I have been going to the Swans Hawks at the SCG for the last 20 years. In that time we have always been a very well structured team. Yesterday we looked like a rabble. We also had no intensity. My Swans loving sister was complaining about our lack of... -

Preview Round 11, 2022: Gold Coast v Hawthorn, 7:40pm 28th May, TIO stadium
They are about the same, I think wikipedia is out of date, on the cfc site JS is at 1.94 https://www.carltonfc.com.au/players/766/jack-silvagni Paul Dear used to chop out in the ruck and he was 1.88! -

Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn : Jai “Duke” Newcombe - 2022 AFLCA Best Young Player, extends to 2026!
Absolutely, Newc is way ahead of him at the same age, I am comparing Newc to Petracca now although obviously Newc is not as consistent just yet, it is so great to have a bull in the middle. -

Preview Round 10, 2022: Hawks v Lions, UTAS 3.20pm Sunday 22nd May
I am super intrigued to see if we get any improvement in our clearances and especially as to who lines up at the first centre bounce. I would be happy to see it as named - Lynch, Mitchell, Wingard and Newcombe. I expect us to start well and then fade as usual as I think all of those 4 have... -

Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn, James Worpel, pick #43 2017 - Peter Crimmins medalist 2019
Happy to accept that he has an injury or health issue but my biggest frustration with him is that he often tries to do too much and gets caught with the ball or when he does dispose it is often poorly executed or a poor choice. You need to have a strong awareness of what you are capable of... -

Autopsy Round 2, 2022: Hawks disconnect the power
Such an enjoyable game to watch. The backs were awesome, I was wondering whether we were going to have too many intercepting defenders at the start of the season with Sicily coming back along side Scrim, CJ and DGB but they are making it work beautifully and are such an offensive weapon even... -

Prediction Round 1 2022 Team
I feel like Phillips is our Chris Mayne when he came to the Pies, soon turned into a highly paid VFL player. Good depth, experience though. Morrison and Howe have been raised positively in training reports etc far more and a very good chance for round 1 given the interrupted pre season of Day...
