I thought Chol was the best of our tall fowards last night, it just wasn’t a night any of them had any space..

I don’t disagree with you per se- the problem is, Ginny’s comment was perfect ammunition to feed to a mob looking for reasons to claw back some dignity- no matter how innocent Ginny’s comments were you don’t want to give the oppo any slight motivation. I hope he learns from it.

Watson is officially a big time player in his first year- 7 goals in two finals is massive. The boys never looked comfortable, not sure if it’s a work rate issue on the night or a game plan issue, something for the coaches to think about at least. Apart from the obvious backline recruits we are...

Serong has been really good

Hard to say as when Lewis did play this year he was effectively a witches hat. In fairness to him he’s never had a season with us where he’s had the ball kicked in so frequently and other weapons for the opposition to worry about. If he comes back fit next year he could be the icing on the cake.

I don’t get it. He’s got nothing left in the tank and if they sign him on big money (why would he play on on anything less) then he’s an expensive borderline fringe 22 player that isn’t known for his leadership skills.. am I missing something?

I can only imagine the abuse being hurled toward him at each break if they get behind early. I only ask (other than the win) an injury free week this week.

The first quarter will tell us plenty- absorb absorb absorb. If the Hawks can do that and are within a couple at quarter time I reckon we win and win without much fuss.

Yeah for sure, I thought it was worth posting as it’s a rumour that seems somewhat medically unlikely, although clearly not impossible from the responses here.

Speaking to a lifelong GP about this rumour he says he would be enormously suprised if it was shingles, as he’s never seen anyone sub 50 with it. Scoffed at the idea of a 25 year old with it.

Well, Isaac DID leave us for our greatest rival and then won a Norm Smith on a day I thoroughly hated. You probably could’ve chosen a different former Hawk, probably any former Hawk tbh

If I’m honest I can’t say I’ve noticed him much when he was called up, and haven’t watched a lot of Box Hill this year.. who would you say he plays like?

I think McCabe is a fair way off it- as well as learning his craft his twig like legs are going to take multiple pre seasons to develop before he’s not pushed around at the top level.

Nah, Port were utter shit last week and just didn’t rise to the occasion. They’ve been found out (once again)- but now the pressure is off and even their own fans aren’t expecting anything out of this week.. a great recipe for free flowing footy, players hungry to regain some respect. This...

The wrong call as in playing him? My question is- why wouldn’t they have given him the jab last week when they knew he was playing with sore ribs? Also I’ve had badly bruised ribs before playing footy, despite the fact I wasn’t an elite sportsman with top level physicians getting me fit, I...

Personally I wish Ginni wouldn’t do this kinda stuff. Not the end of the world but you don’t want to give a bruised oppo any more motivation than you need to

I’ve been told by a medical expert it’s the type of injury to be exceedingly sore with no improvement.. then all of a sudden it comes along quickly. There’s no need to rule somebody out just because supporters aren’t enjoying being left in the dark.

Seriously- what would Hawthorn have to offer this year that Dogs would accept.. they won’t accept a future 1st. It’s Cats

Fully agree, if we can absorb in the first quarter I will like our chances. Port will look to throw an early punch- we know they will after last weekend, and if they don’t land it the doubt will creep back in.

This here is kinda true. They’ve expected heaps for shit trucks and then don’t want to pay for talent. Bailey has injury issues and off field also, but if he’s being offered 5-6 years on good coin then he’s obviously worth a bit. I wouldn’t mind seeing clubs holding the Cats to a higher asking...

Ramsden, not the tap ruckman Reeves is but far better around the ball. I think he’s exactly what Sam wants- mobile players that can play multiple positions

This makes the most sense logically. Phillips is essentially the same piece as Frosty albeit a little slower. Serong would have to change the whole setup as he simply isn’t big enough to take the gorillas. As for others worried about the Cats- Cameron is more of a flanker than a true key...

WTF if this is true what a ****ing axe blow

Are they though? They’re favourites in many people’s eyes now- especially the gf being at the G. Port Adelaide genuinely choked, the Cats looked like millionaires and now the pressure is squarely on them in the prelim. The Cats are mortal this season as we’ve seen, GWS or Brisbane are more than...

The most pleasing thing for me is when it was hot in the kitchen early on and others weren’t keeping their composure, Wardy did- one touch hands and quick decisions. He still had a couple of nervous kicks and a couple of handballs that weren’t the best option, but it’s so obvious this element...

Love it. Dogs moved heaven and earth trying to get Watto in the draft and then he goes and spears them right through the heart with a game high 4 snags

I hear ya. I’m wondering how I coped with 4 GFs in a row 🤔

Well when the umpire is handing out bullshit goals for general ruck jostling then yeah, il keep bitching thanks champ

I’m so nervous and can’t focus on anything else I’m agreeing to a holiday my wife has been talking about for 20 minutes, no idea what she’s been saying. Oh well

Man feels totally weird watching a night game
