Signing off with a flourish…..thanks for all of your posts, theyve made this thread fun to read

So true, his first thought is always to give it off, it a true small forward needs to be selfish and take the shot at goal

I’d happily send Chad to Box Hill and bring in “anyone” with a it of hunger and desire, be that Long, Butler or one of the new draftees. JJ running off him and sprinting through the centre of the ground to slam home a goal was an indictment on Wingard. He was very disappointing tonight for a...

This was the crows Grand final, they would have been eyeing of this game for the last 2 months as their only chance of a win this season. It was hard to watch tonight but we have probably seen a few hawk Champions play their final game in the brown and Gold. The nature of the completion means...

You say it like that's a bad thing !

Have it on good authority that it's a done deal 1 playing+ 2 coaching

Thanks Axe. Looking forward to reading it

Going back a few years (1980) but Russell Greene was 23 when he moved from the Saints to the Hawks. He went on to win 3 flags and was AFL MVP in 1984

Literally just back home for having a cheeky beer with "our captain". Inside word was that we were looking very good for O'meara, Mitchell and Vicekery. Said Vickery needed a change of scenery, and that we were waiting of GCS for a suitable trade for O'meara (no names mentioned) but was...

I remember meeting the great Ian Dicker at the Hawks family day the morning after the 2008 grand final win. I said it was an honour to meet him, shook his hand and thanked him for saving my club. He was a very humble man, despite his huge contribution to our club.

Here here, Russell Greene was the Shaun Burgoyne of the early 80's. After 120 games with the perennial losers at st kinda in 1980, he switched to the Hawks, gave up the booze and went on to become a key member of the most dominant midfield The Hawks have ever fielded. greene went on to play...

I love Alle De Wolde - he is the reason that I am a hawk and not a dreaded pie supporter. My father was a pies supporter and dragged me along to games at VIC park up to the age of 5. But then I started school and my prep teacher, Mrs Davis ( God bless this woman) lived next door to the 1978...

Gotta agreed with this. Both Hale and Ceglar offered very little tonight, either one could be sacrificed for a Big boy who could provide a solid defensive 50 mark in the hole ahed of buddy and riperriper

Ma Manic pressure at the footy and the ball carrier.....this is what Langers brings to the team. Bring on September

What I liked about Big bog and Cegs' game tonight was that they hit the scoreboard. Hale has too often failed to convert what have been gettable set shots after he has done the hard work and taken the contested mark. Can't help but think that tonight we have seen the ruck partnership that will...

Lose on a Friday night and my weekend is f.....d Win on a Friday night and it doesn't matter what happens the next 2 days...nothing can get me down

Good win tonight against a crows team who are up and about. Shoey was good tonight but is still a a concern under a high ball. Would live him to attack the flight of the ball rather than feel for his man. Gunners...outstanding, crows must be spewing that he left. Thought our rucks were really...

I rememb I remember a game at the G where Gibbo played on Buddy. He did a very good job on him and I think his performance in this game went a long way toward Clarko lining up Gibbo as a trade target

R Dermott Brereton rated Platts as the best Hawthorn player in his era. Better than Dunstall, Buckenara, Ayres, Langford, Knights, Mew and even the great Leigh Matthews. That's all you need to know.

Maybe when they walked......think about it

Watching the replay for the third time.....gotta love Hales snap for goal in the last quarter, a rovers goal from a big lummox of a bloke. Love it

Loved the route 1 option. Thumping torpedo right down the guts from Goo, strong mark, run and carry from Stratts, before handing off to Buddy who bangs it home from inside the square......should make it a we play

Good hands, slow feet. I had a lot of hope for big moose, But he just didn't take the (limited) opportunities that here presented to him. Given he was ranked behind buddy, ruffy, hale and now gunston, he needed a move to a new club to serif he can deliver on his significant potential. Best of...

I had to work the day of the 91 granny, at the wce grand final breakfast of all places! They were so confident before the game, all wearing their stupid fluro hats, mocking Dermott, who karl langdon described as a handbag player. When I told them I supported the hawks I copped an earful of...

Fantastic news for the big fella and all hawks fans. I think we should go cautiously and let him fully recover for a tilt at the preliminary final, maybe it's time to bring lisle in at chf.

thought he looked pretty solid today but I prefer him up fwd. He has a great pair of mits and provides a solid lead up target which we'll need with Ruffy out and Buddy freewheeling all over the place
