Can't blame those three - its a team game and our composure in the last quarter just wasn't there. Ellis should of had a shot instead of passing, Roughie could have kicked straight, Mitchell got pushed in the back and paid a holding the ball free kick against etc etc.

You can't blame this loss if we don't make the 8, at least there was decent effort, what about the game against Port, Adelaide, West Coast and the Bulldogs - those games are the ones that cost us and the last quarter against Melbourne when we shut up shop after getting a good percentage boost to...

Disappointed, they played really well and we should not have let it slip, just like round 17 last year. I thought Kennedy had a blinder but yes should of had a shot but hey how many games has the kid played. For all you hawks supporters who want to bag the hell out of some of players bugger...

He knows how to kick a footy thats for sure. Outpositioned Cloke several times and never gave up in the contest. Although I think Cloke is a dud, Shoey had a great game!

If we play to 80% of what we are capable of then we can account for teams like, Port, Adelaide, Essendon, Richmond and Kangaroos. On any day we can beat Collingwood, but we have to turn up ready to play and players need to be hungry to win not just expect it, which I think after last week they...

That was a bad storm too, we were just leaving the Gabba after watching a game of cricket when the storm hit. It was quick but savage. Insurance claim to fix the roof.

We need three talls this week in Taylor, Renouf and Bob. Last time it was Renouf by himself in teh ruck all game and Murphy manhandled by Barry Hall. They need support, Taylor and Renouf in the ruck, Bob down back. Leave Buddy, Roughie, Williams and Cryil in the forward 50. Sewel to go back to...

Muston can kick a fair distance and with reasonable penetration, shanked a couple yesterday but plenty of others did worse. I can see him and Young fighting for a wing spot!

We were very flat from the first minute, I don't why they used Campbell in the ruck and at fullback, with Adelaides talls they should have brought in Renouf or left Dowler in the side. As they used Roughie in the ruck which left Rutten and Bock to double team Buddy. We were crap at disposal...

The umps are pretty quick to blow the whistle for holding the ball against Buddy - more so than most players. He also gets pinged for 50 metre penalties alot that they aren't consistent with, such as the 50m for overstepping the mark against the Crows - not blaming the umps as we played crap but...

Murphy has been good all year, playing well out of his weight and size class, just remember even Croad would get 5 or even 8 goals kicked against him at times and he is 20 kg's heavier than Murph. He has made a few mistakes but seeing he hasn't played that many games, and also plenty of others...

We are leaving it up to Murphy too much to man the big blokes, we get carved up against teams with big bodied forwards and a team of runners with leg speed that can get the ball in quickly - look at Port, Blues and Bombers. I thougt Sewel, Rioli were great, Franklin showing some improvement...

He's in the best 22, great game on Saturday and he is our best third tall option for a team like Geelong when he can play on a Steve Johnson type player. He's not a KPP but has been assigned that job every game this year. He has good skills, yes he has made a few mistakes but when you are...

Coming down from Brissie to watch - first time for kids and wife at the MCG - I went last year for Collingwood game - I can't wait for this week!

We're Gold Family Member in Brisbane, we have organised flights and accomodation to come down for the game. We can just turn up can't we as we have seats allocated on our Membership cards and it is a home game? Getting worried with the injuries though, especially as we couldn't make it to the...

If you listen to Lethal talk about that day - which he regrets the actual punch, but he had to do something as Bruns and others were taking cheap shots on the younger hawks players all day. Matthews had had enough and took the opportunity, paid the price for it though in many ways. People...

Lethal no question.... Second would be Ayres and a smokey - Michael Tuck to play 427 games at the highest level is incredible.

Sunny Qld, its funny there are 4 Hawks supporters - 3 of them members in on my floor at work. They are everywhere up here and this was even before they won the GF. I am third generation Hawks supporter and my 92 year old Grand Father still lives in Melbourne and he predicted a 25 point win for...

I think this is on the money! But I would add John Kennedy Snr from the 60s and 70s. I would maybe add michael tuck to the 80's - but it is a bit from left field.

Hate the scum, North and Port Power the most although we got Dew, Gilham, Clarkson and co from them. Hate losing to the Swans and Saints as often as we do. Pies, Blues, Eagles, Tigers, Dockers and Crows I am not fans of at all. Dees - feel sorry for them! Geelong - just laugh at them but...

Mate you could win all 22 games in a season and if you lose the GF then those 22 games mean F*ck/All, if you can't perform on the last day in September then your players need to have a look at themselves and assess what their motivation and mindset was. To me Geelong 08 were very similar to...

1. Just the game and teamwork by everyone involved 2. Watching the cats crap themselves - especially their stars - Mooney, Ottens, Johnson, Bartel 3." Now thats what I am talking about" 4.Magical goals - Youngs from 150m (he could've had two of them), Dew goals, Campbell Browns goal from outside...

Back to back - just like 88 & 89!

If he is getting paid $500k a season then I am glad we didn't make an offer - way too much for a player like ROK. You can't beleive anything the biggest spin doctor of all says (Roos) There is only one other person who comes close to waht teh spin doctor says and that is Williams from Port but...

Last year the hawks spent the lowest amount out of any clubs within their salary cap, something like 92% of the cap, tehy were able to then pay front ended upgrades to some of their star players. Also more of an even spread across the board and with Crawford a 10 year plus player only half his...

I hedged my bets and had money on Sewel and Hodge!

And do you know what - it works, that is why they do it. They are hopeful that the umpires call it back and don't pay advantage, that way it slows the other team down and they can reset their zone - excellent ploy. You will see other teams doing this next year.

34 possessions around the half back don't count for much

Disgraceful umpiring: McLaren making brown have a second shot, downfield to Ablett, 50m against bateman to ablett, scarletts dive near buddy, stokes dive. Where was the downfield free kick when Young was tackled late and taken out of play, Buddy couldn't buy a free kick for holding or high...

Hodge Ellis Ablett/Dew
