I thought he would/ should end up there, even without Dear getting injured, after both Barrass and Battle joined up.
He should play it like Jezza Cameron does, roam wherever he wants and blow them up.
It's not just his running, there was a game where we getting smashed and he had a quarter or so playing forward and his leading at the ball was the most exciting thing from that game. He's got a good leap him on him and he's going to be able to create enough separation more often than not and he's a very good kick at goal from 40+.
Personally I wouldn't waste him on a wing.
I reckon he’s a guy you just try to get around the footy as much as possible. His flexibility means he’ll no doubt be used to plug holes when needed though either within games due to injuries or longer absences due to those injuries as well. Very valuable player to have. Love it when he’s able to attack, when he kicks it it stays kicked.
Thank you, yes that is expected. Learning the role and team structures and chemistry of his new team mates
Thanks mate

Sounds like no complacency from Sam and the players, great to hear.
On a side note, has Cal had his proper scan yet ? Been overseas it's difficult to catch up on everything over there, but he was supposed to be looked at after the break but haven't heard anything about it.

It was Nat Fyfe.
Really went into stormtrooper mode on that one day in September

His marking is good enough to play the Cameron role. Chol might feel the pressure when Dear and Lewis are fit.

Did simpkin win the norm smith?
Jed Anderson unlucky that year from memory. Reckon his career would’ve looked a lot different if he stayed at Hawthorn, he was a real talent.
Just a structuring tip from someone who works as a journalist, you generally want to have the newer information earlier and the older later.
Let me entertain you: The Hawk ready to excite in 2025
A luckless Hawthorn backman looks to be a pre-season standout to start the new year.www.zerohanger.com
I recently joined Zero Hanger as a writer and this is my first piece for them. Have a read and let me know what you think. Would love some feedback.
So it might be better to have something like;
Jiath flying in training - set to play big role in 2025
Details of what he did in match simulation
Bounced back after another frustrating year with injuries
Details on what held him back in 2024, etc.
Also maybe try to avoid using cliches where possible and just tell it a bit more straight down the line. Every now and then is okay but there's almost always a more concise way to say something that hasn't been used a million times before.
Terrific article. I noticed two paragraphs started with the world 'after', which jarred with me. I liked that there was a detailed narrative that felt like I hadn't missed any part of the recent CJ story.Let me entertain you: The Hawk ready to excite in 2025

It felt like I was hearing from a witness to these events rather than writing based on 2nd hand info (as is the case I am sure).

Just love these daily reports about the dedication to the cause and the way that the boys are all for one and one for all.

There's a Norm Smith between the two arguments.
Also,
"But, but, but Danger....."
"He padded his stats after Smith did all the real damage.....

You don’t know how much of a service you have provided to me. Have a Geelong boss who raises Smith regularly.You just have to lean into it. Tell my Geelong acquaintances that the only reason they got over the line after all those years was because they needed a Hawthorn champion to get them there.
They don't like it, and they can't argue against it
Hawthorn champion …get over the line …
And the other flags were only because of GAJ, who they got because we gave them his father.You just have to lean into it. Tell my Geelong acquaintances that the only reason they got over the line after all those years was because they needed a Hawthorn champion to get them there.

All flags come back to Hawthorn gifts. I reckon 63 was a charity day too. Let them have a flag we said

Yes …a couple of pretty annoying non knock out finals though. And that’s where they bring up Smith again
Maybe bring up the respective flag counts since then....Yes …a couple of pretty annoying non knock out finals though. And that’s where they bring up Smith again
Thanks Siri and all members for training reports. Exciting times
was robbed.
And their complete inability to go back-to-back. Ever.
