Hawks won't. But will O'Meara? His resolve is surely being tested.

Lets be pragmatic here. At the end of the day, Hawthorn Footy Club lives on. Whilst i dont understand the trade with Saints, it obviously done to obtain JOM. Be proud that our club values our players as people and not assets. Our success is uncompared both on and off the field. Suns are...

The rationale of Lewis/Mitchell i can understand. Tugs at the heart strings, but good buisness for all parties. The Tom Mitchell trade was a win in my eyes. In that respect, we've done well... but in isolation the trade with St Kilda is concerning. That may all change and we trade in JOM or...

With the loss of Mitchell/Lewis/Hill and if we miss out on JOM, will we need to renegotiate some contracts to front end them as we need to pay 95% of the cap as per AFL rules? (Estimate only) Lewis 500, Mitchell 600, JOM 600 is 1.7 million we have not spent... This is of course if nobody else...

If Stratton didn't go down with injury, it was his to lose. Cyril or Sammy. If we held it 2 weeks later, Graham Wright would of been a chance as well (if what we want to happen, happens).

Great point. 2016 Brand isn't waht we need but with time 2016/17/18 Brand may develop into exactly what we need. I believe his market value is less then what his value to us is.

Hope it's the Crows. Dogs could absolutely torch us.

Unless players need a 'mental' break to freshen up, we need players like Hill, Rough, Birchall etc to get some confidence over the next 2 weeks. All about our versatility, but in finals we are going to need a tall forward to draw the footy and we used to have a coleman medalist to do that...

Whilst i would love to see the Hawks play up here in Brisbane again, since our last Gabba game we have won 3 flags... Any stupid little superstition to keep the dream alive!! Happy to travel to the Gold Coast...

Start of the season, i really didn't miss him too much and was quite happy with how everything had turned out. Swans were playing crap and we were simply awesome. But now with all our injuries and the big Bud showing some very good form, real determination and focus, it is starting to hurt that...

For those parents talking to their kids, please tell the tale of the legend known as "Dunstall". A man who gave up a 10 year deal to return home, only to stay loyal to his beloved football club. A man who is still involved today and has been instrumental in our 2008 and 2013 premierships. That...

He has a chance to really leave a legacy in the next 2 games before he leaves if that is his choice. This guy is Buddy Franklin and he can tear any game apart, but hasn't done in often enough lately for my liking. Give us 2 of your best Buddy and make me think Damn.. we will never see that...

I have my own implanted cardiac defib. Its set to shock if beats reach a certain level. Please Hawks, win and win well, for my own well being. Because if you dont, will be very painful for me...

How about we leave Buddy and Cyril in the forward 50 and instead of kicking it in the air we just kick it along the ground to them in the one on ones. Geelong never mark the ball and when they grab possession they dont have anytime to set up and we just pressure them full on. The old 'chaos'...

When he is on, he is unstoppable but when he is off he can be putrid. He really needs to bridge the gap from his best to his worst. The media are going to have a good week with this. Will be interesting to see over the next few weeks, if he is suspended, what life after Buddy would look like...

If this was the case and he does go, it better be to GWS. I would rage if it was the Swans.

Showed so much improvement to start the year off and was really excited to.see how far he would come this year. Honestly, feeling very flat about this.

For the conspiracy theorists out there, James O'Connor is now being linked to the Western Force next year. Ill go back to my tin foil hat now...

Dunstall as he was and still is my football hero. Plus he rejected a 10 year contract for big money to go home to the Bears and stayed on as a one club player. I loved the way footy was played in the Dunstall era, forwards one out and with the 50 all to themselves. So much has evolved since...

What is your thought on our Ruck stocks and whom do we play and when? I loved the Hale and Roughy combo last year but have high hopes for Bailey and Lowden. Do we want go see Roughy or Hale become permanent forwards again so either of those two can play? Its going to be a good sub plot for me...

Hawks games in QLD are rare these days so relishing the opportunity to see them play live. Would love to see a fringe player take the game on and make us think... well well what do we have here? Also, wanna see Buddy not play and Roughy kick 15 and think everything will be alright in 2014.

With interchange cap coming next year I reckon he will thrive. An old school footballer who doesn't rely on his pace are going to be a premium next year. No arguments from me, plus sounds like he wants to and loves to be here. Prefer him to win a Norm Smith over a Brownlow though.

James O'Connor comes out of contract with Melbourne Rebels this year, maybe he is waiting to see what he does? He is pretty social with the rugby players. Only problem is these Union boys play for the highest bidder.

Feel sorry for other players coming out of contract with us. With Buddy the priority, and rightly so, how does this effect the others? The club is certainly going to have work hard with its list management, not knowing what it can pay other players etc. I.just hope that manager of Mundine...

Onfield we will cope, having buddy is a luxury and im sure we can cover him. Off field will be a massive hit. Membership, exposure, sponsorship and young kids supporting Hawthorn because of Buddy. That is where it will be felt. Unfortuantely, that is the footy of today. I miss the good ole...

I remember last year the theme in Clarko's and Jeff's speech was all about the prelim result and determination to get better. Just wondering for whoever is watching, was there a similar theme with everyone's speech this year? I hope so.

I thought it was a pretty good relationship between the two. Isnt Puma Australia CEO a massive Hawks man? Maybe its a ploy to try and squeeze some extra from Puma.. If true, I remember reading that the new clash jumper was designed by Puma, does that mean we can use it with Adidas...

Re: 2012 Fixture No games against Lions/Suns in QLD. That makes it now 4 years since we visited the Gabba. Might have to organise a family holiday to get down to see some live games. Looks a tough fixture for us, we will earn our spot in the finals thats for sure.

Re: Hawks Meet Pies in Rd1 Just reading Jeff's piece on the HFC website about the president election, he talks about always being frank in his communication to us. He then goes onto saying we will hear from on Friday and again he will be frank. Now with the Fixture coming out on Friday, and...

Good afternoon Mr Offical, I know that Tasmania are on board for the next 5 years, but what of our other sponsors? How much longer does HSBC, BUPA and Puma have on their current deals. Sorry for the odd question, but we are looking at switching banks and our health insurance early next...
