Autopsy 2024 Second elimination final : Hawks roll the dogs

[Simon Crawshay]

A big round of applause for Freo reject Mr Lloyd Meek!

And to think I got smashed from pillar to post at the start of the year for daring to suggest that the gap between him and Reeves wasn't that big

 

[VandoHawk]

Close to 98,000 people. Our boys love the big stage!

Newc and Sic had better individual quarters, but Meek dominated all game. I lost count of how many times we didn't have a target until he popped up in the right spot. Pantsed both English and Darcy.

So did Scrim. He was BOG at 1/4 by the length of the longest thing you can name… and never relented

But I’m not discounting Meeky. Legend.

We just did something that the * haven't done in 20 years. It's going to be hard talking to my scum supporting neighbour without gloating to much. He's actually a really nice dude too

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Also sounds like he's had a few complementary beverages

 

[Delecate Des]

OWWW LORDY, NEVER IN DOUBT BIG HOTDOG, NEVER IN DOOOUBT!!!!!!

 

[OnTheRocks]

We had some amazing single quarters from players in that game, but Meeky. Hands down BOG. All game.

How good is being a Hawks fan!

Absolutely epic by Meeky against the dogs talls. His smarts is unrivalled against other rucks, they maybe taller and slightly more agile but he out smarts and out works them all. Hard to play the same without him, a vital cog.

 

[MaxiBont]

Great game from your boys, completely played us off the park after QT.

Hope you go all the way now

 

[earthworms]

W!!!

 

[madhawksfan]

Absolutely buzzing after that! 9 long years in the making. Take a bow Mitch!

Thought most players were superb tonight. Special mentions to Scrim, Wiz, Dear, Newk, Meek and Sicily.

Very happy for Frost, Ward and Finn who played excellent games. Except for two errant dump kicks thought Harry was great too.

Imagine if we get a firing Moore snd Chol next week and potentially Day back in.

Port will come out firing after being embarrassed so it’ll be another great challenge.

HOK

 

[Glenhope]

How good was that? No limits.

 

[VandoHawk]

Massimo wins a final before Essendon hahaha

 

[killerspud]

Because we finished bottom 5 last year and were shuffled into the sunday early of twilight slots - we are box office and need to be on centre stage next year

 

[Buzz Hawk]

FULL CREDIT TO THE BOYS

 

[Adebisi]

Chol had a stinker, but I didn’t like the bronx cheers.
Lord Meek went beast mode.
Scrim is very very confident now.

Close to 98,000 people. Our boys love the big stage!

Highest attendance ever for an elimination final. With crowds like this the AFL have not choice but to give us prime time in 2025. Friday night's are gonna be ours again lads!

 

[humid hawk]

Omg I'm opening a bajillion bottles of wine!! Wheeeee!!!

Meeky absolutely destroyed english! My god that was a pasting.

Josh ward was incredibly strong and composed, Nuke is a finals weapon, Scrim would have marked a pigeon if it flew near him and Sic is the Mr Miyagi of footy.

Ginni was huge is tough patches.

And Calsh.....omg I love this footy club and it's history so much, and can't wait for this young bloke to write the next chapter!

 

[Hodgey 15]

Rapt for Wardy.
Had an excellent game.

 

[Kil Phearns]

A win 3261 days in the making.
*Looks down and waves at Essendon. *

 

[The_Axeman]

Massimo has won more finals than Essendon

 

[phlogiston]

Super pissed with our conversion in front of goal. Could really have built more %

OTOH, I’m just happy to get the 4 points.

 

[Yuley95]

Squiggle has us winning the GF

 

[Hrvat Hawks]

I tell you what. My Lordy-me-oh-my. We are damn good.

 

[TeamPlayer23]

Wow just wow!!
I can't believe what I've just witnessed
What a team what a club just when you thought you've seen it all there's always something more.

Welcomes to the new era.

We are a happy team and hawthorn alright

Enjoy the win and the future my fellow hawk, ladies and gentlemen.

 

[Hawks1994]

Mates group chat is blowing up with the saltiest of tears cause we are successful again

It is absolutely glorious
