GOOSE !!!!!!!!!!
Would be the perfect addition. A quality player like him and the young fellas having another year under the belt and finals will start to be a regular occurance for us for many years to come.
Backline is the area to focus on as our midfield and forward line is pretty good...
Yep that is right, we have a 37% chance of winning the grand final based on the last 27 years stats.
Over the last 27 years (can't be bothered going back any further) at the end of the home and away season one of the top 4 teams based on % alone was the winner of the grand final. That means...
Hey fellow game players
Don't want to hassle anyone but at the rate we are going with our selections we are going to be here for ever. So far we have 8 selections and it has taken 35 hours and 15 minutes to get them done. Based on that it should take us approximately 1,762 hours and 30...
Don't think we need to panic and make huge changes.
IN: Vanders, Thorp, Jacobs
OUT: Little,Young, Ellis (inj - at least that is what everyone is saying, if not dropped)
If Vanders doesn't get picked Young will stay in the team for this week.
3 good ins those would be. Then next week...
Hey Rusty
Any chance of getting on that list please mate.
Would love to go down and watch them myself but the bus fare from Perth to Waverley is just a killer :(
Cheers mate
Krusty.
QLD - Dunstall
NSW - Crawford (He played for the allies team so I deem him to be from NSW) if not then Vandenberg.
SA - Platten, followed very closely by Jarman but Platten was an out and out champion.
WA - Buckenarra easily
TAS - Hudson
VIC - Matthews, considering he is our greatest player...
Delist:
1. Little - Just hasn't shown enough at Box Hill level compared to the other young guys
2. Thurgood - like him because he gives his all but unfortunately it isn't enough for AFL level, would make a great team player at VFL level and wish him all the best but just can't keep him on the...
Here is my attempt at this weeks team. I have tried to match it up to Melbourne based on the line up they named last against St Kilda (I have removed McLean and put in N. Brown assuming McLean will be out)
I think we match up fairly well against the Demons. We just need out forward line to...
Is Vanders in our best 22 in skills, probably not.
Is Vanders in our best 22 overall, hell yeah.
Vanders probably isn't in our best 22 for skills but either is Campbell Brown but both of them make up for it and more with the other things they do on and off the field.
I don't know a single...
In light of recent events is it fair to say that Laurence Angwin was unfairly crucified. Not saying he isn’t an idiot for what he did, we all agree on that, but the fact that when he spoke out about the drug problem in football everyone dismissed what he said and labelled it the angry ramblings...
Not doubting you but can you tell me where you got your senarios from ? Is it on the AFL website or somewhere else?
I just assumed (simple thinking here) that becasue we are a home game this week and freo are an away game that if we end up playing them next week it would be at Subi? I hope...
After reading the spirited debate on the "when will the flag go to VIC next ?" thread I decided to throw fuel on the fire and provide a ranking of how I see the VIC clubs, going into the new season. This ranking is you could say how I see the teams finishing on the ladder (not 1 to 10 and all...
Hey fellow Hawkers
Usually after a Hawks training session someone puts up a post about what happened, who went well etc.
I think we all know by now what happened at training (poor bugger) but can anyone shed some light on it, how it happened, who bumped him (not that they are to blame just...
Fellow HAWKS supporters
This may sound harsh but GET OVER IT ! The draw is out and won’t be changed and the tassie deal is done and won’t be changed. Let’s just concentrate on what we can change, and that is turning our club into the powerhouse it once was.
Admittedly I am not based in...
Personally I think our backline isn't as bad as everyone says but agree that it is our weakest area. Tall options include Croad, Jacobs, Dawson and Gilham (that is not including Roughead who I hope will play down forward) plus Smith can play on a tall if needed. Small defenders I don't think...
Doggies have done very well. Best of all the clubs.
Aker is a great player (off field who cares if you like him or not you have to admit he is a great player)
McDougall has been pretty average so far but like someone else already mentioned I think he will fit the dogs game plan well...
I think that a lot of people are not appreciating the position that Thornton is in at the moment. He has effectively got Carlton over a barrell.
He can nominate for the preseason draft with a price of $600,000 for a year. If Carlton decide to not pick him up he goes to another club that...
Can anyone tell me if we have done any delistings yet ?
I read that we had delisted Matt Ball but that was all so far. Barks has retired and we will get rid of spida but have we made any other movements as we need at least 3 spots open for the draft (a requirement) but with thornton coming...
if we could pick him up for a song but otherwise I think we have other areas to work on. QLD paper has us rumoured to be interested in keating as a back up to robbie ? Again if he comes cheaply I would give him a one year performance based contract, if we did that would free up taylor to be...
Yeah at the moment you are trading ordinary for ordinary but why not give it a go. miller isn't working out so give him a chance elsewhere and we can give thurstans a go, worst case we play him at box hill just like with miller.
admittedly he has baggage but maybe the new start will do him...
Re: Popular thornton trade:don't dismiss it
I like the idea personally (I would though being a HAWKS fan)
But even if they had to use 19 and 35 for f/s they would still have 1, 17, 24, 33 and 51 which for Carlton would be very valuable. They need some good young kids (I know they have some...
I agree that thornton isn't the messiah but he would be a great fit for our club at the moment. No way in hell is he worth giving up the number 6 pick but yeah no problem losing the second rounder and a fringe player.
I don't want to lose taylor, don't think he is the best ruckman around...
This is a pretty good deal for the dockers, trading a player that can't get a game for a player who can come in and kick 50+ goals a season. Admittedly they are going to miss out on a high draft pick but I think they approaching their window and need to ensure they don't miss out. I am not...
You hear this homesick stuff all the time about players who come from another state. Personally don't beleive it 99% of the time and it seems it is just a good excuse for people to start rumours.
Mark Williams wont be going anywhere this year.
