Junk timeslot, lets get a win at the MCG

Hawks youth are raw but talented

James is in the the “2% Club”, comprising the 20 players among about 800 players across 18 clubs who have finished top three in their club best and fairest in each of the last two years.

James Rowbottom averages 9.2 tackles.

Decent old effort from Rowy.

Top preview again,thanks SwansProudly .
Just for info the Hawks are listed as 6th at the top of the preview.
I feel much better with them down in 16th.

 

[anotherletdown]

We'll win by 13.... shots on goal. 48 points

 

[RubbaDuck]

We'll win by 13.... shots on goal. 48 points

It'd be nice to cruise to an easy win and keep some petrol tickets for next week but as long as we win I'm happy.

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Bloods to win by 7 (Kevin Goss) goals.

Shake down the thunder

 

[caesar88]

Would love to see a good game from our m&ms at either end... McCartin & Melican down back, McLean & McDonald up forward.

Continued form build for Adams and ferocious tackling follow-up from Grundy.

Forward pressure, forward pressure, forward pressure.

Takes a special player to have already cemented a reputation in their first 100 games. If anyone deserves a milestone win it's Rowbottom.

Swans by 471 points.

 

[Spacedog]

Who do people think will be sub? Campbell again?

 

[Punts]

Get it done please

 

[Donza]

I actually like the timeslot.

Means I can have a whole day doing stuff.
Crack a beer and watch the game.

1.45pm, as in next week, can get stuffed.

 

[Millky95]

Happy 100th Rowbottom

4 points. No injuries. Get it done

 

[Mister B]

My prediction is that Ginnivan will suddenly be rewarded for all high contact whether actually there or self induced with ducking and raising of the arm. We all know it’s going to happen.

disposals (7 goals).

 

[MF]

Grundy, Heeney, Chad and Errol to absolutely fire, Papley to kick 5 and Swans by 48.

Really don't care too much how we get it done to be honest but absolutely must come away with the W

 

[Dubai Quacker]

Buddy appears on the big screen, it triggers the AFL & they slap a trade ban on us.

Swans proceed to flop over the line by a goal after trailing at 3/4 time.

Game day thread sees levels of hysteria not seen since …. The Richmond debacle.

 

[The King!]

Who do people think will be sub? Campbell again?

Heeney

 

[The King!]

Would love to see a good game from our m&ms at either end... McCartin & Melican down back, McLean & McDonald up forward.

Forward pressure, forward pressure, forward pressure.

Swans by 471 points.

Conservative margin.

 

[The King!]

McDonald and Hayward combine for 9 today and people will complain Haywards were not spread out enough and Mcdonald got his too eaaily (eg Joe the goose)

 

[wolftone57]

I hope our players are not thinking like some people here, That this is a Fait Accompli. Because if they are we will lose. We need to be very aware of this mob. They always seem to play well against us for at least a half. It was this round 2 years ago they beat us & we played in a GF. So, treat it as a danger game & we win.

Have you been on Yabba? 471 points? heck it's a good thing it isn't a Freo or Dees game, they don't kick 471for the year lol

 

[mattpolo8]

Ripping weather today.

Gonna head out to watch most of the vfl first.

Go bloods.
