Game Day 2015 Grand Final - Hawthorn v West Coast, MCG 2.30pm

[madhawksfan]

Geez guys I'm not feeling good about this. I keep trying to think up areas in the eagles game that we can take advantage of but nothing comes to mind. What is with all the commentators tipping us this time around?!

Their lack of height down back, their inferior foot skills (compared to us) and their reliance on Kennedy for starters.

The commentators tip us because our best can and does destroy other sides.

West Coast will have to have a lot go right to beat us. Can they do that twice in four weeks, away from their biggest advantage, Subiaco and with less assistance from the umps? That is the $64 question.

Suckling as Sub. No late changes.
Rosa as Sub for the Eagles

looks like ian healy is chris isaac's guitarist.

 

[Great 2008]

Well done Howey - u look after those hammies, bud.

lol - hope that is not an omen.

 

[Badesumofu]

Suckling sub, probably as expected.

 

[Smithdogmaddog]

Selection - tick. Sub - tuck. Game plan intensity and execution ? We'll see...

 

[Pessimistic]

Suckers and hill getting some goal kicking practice in the swirly conditions

Nice ans cool up here in front of the city big screen

It'd be nice to see him win an 8th premiership.

Freudian slip ! To the omen board

Thank God I invested in Fox and don't have to tolerate that rubbish.

 

[cryptor]

Selection and sub as I hoped. Bring the intensity that is about when we are on and it will put us in a great position to win. Suckling to come on late and his precision long kicking should be a gift when West Coast are hopefully too tired to cut off the long kicks.

CU on the other side of the match, mate. I'm nervous, but confident we can bring home number 13.

 

[A Cut Above]

I'm starting to get very nervous. So cruel that an entire season is make or break off the back of one game, especially when you're chasing history.

 

[threesixpio]

Suckers as sub is good actually. Not great defensively so more of a weapon when the game frees up. Ok about it

It is 33 degrees here now, 1pm, gusts up to 52km/h. This morning they advised us it would be gusts at 38km/h. Sheesh, just like our game and the politicians, they are unpredictable.

 

[Smithdogmaddog]

Good effort by the Eagles to get here, still gotta come through Chicago tho!

Smashing them at the start is being overplayed I reckon, maybe a setup for an '89 style start. We just need to keep our composure - not sure if West Coke players are extremely humble or they are indeed just happy to make the big dance. They are primed to be mentally dominated Go Hawks!

Agree. Just bring that same spirit and focus as the last two weeks from the start, and we'll be in a good place. I'm with you, not sure if the fast start is essential

[MistyAvalon]

I rushed it... turned out a bit more corny than I'd hoped for. Lol.

[LuvMyHawks]

I'm glad I'm not playing football today. It is far too hot for this game. I cleaned out my shed today, took it to the tip, and I was soaking wet from the heat. Players will cramp badly today, a big problem, I just hope our boys can stand it. They will feel the heat more than the Eagles.I hope I am wrong,wrong,wrong, one team will be flogged today, but I just hope it's not us!. I haven't watched, or listened to the radio since 12 today. The muppets gave me the s)$&@s.. I wont be listening to the tv anyway, mute it. I won't watch, or listen to the media until the game starts.
Only the ABC radio.

 

[UAWM]

I did say the day before we versed wce in the qualifying final that the loser will go onto win the granny. We lost... now we have gotta win!

 

[SA HAWK]

Wasn't nervous all week until the final teams were announced now it has kicked in.
