Autopsy AFL 2024 Second Semi Final - Port v Hawks Fri Sept 13th 7:40pm EST/7:10pm CST (AO) Teams in OP

[Gavin Excell]

Yep. This is only year 1 in the Hawks/Ginnivan relationship.

The Pies were burnt out after 3.

Dare say Hawks ahead there

Jordan Lewis: KEN HINKLEY HAS RUINED A GOOD NIGHT

While his fake glasses fog up with tears. Stfu flog

Agree, all these ex-Hawthorn premeirship players are a bunch of arrogant and entitled flogs. Suck it up, Port were too tough and nobody, not even your players showed them respect.

 

[xDQ82x]

Im actually a fan of what ken did.

The Hawks embrace that cheeky/disrespectful style and they have to cope it on the way back

 

[Toump Ass]

He was giving it to Ginnivan over comment on socials and Sicily bit back.

Either way, fantastic stuff.

 

[hawkman]

There’s no substitute for maturity and sportsmanship, that’s great that a player did that while it was happening

May not get a game this week though disrespecting the great Ken like that

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Haha Hodge on the high horse. Go and eat another Healthy Choice meal ya silly plonker.

Coming from the piece of shit shilling for payday loans during every broadcast.

 

[SSSSSS]

Every club would use it to get up.

if it gets an extra 1 or 2 percent then that could be the difference in a close game.

I would think Sicily shaving the post by an inch had a much more significant bearing than Ginnivan's comments.

I could think of a 100 more reasons that would have had a more significant outcome.

 

[kozi]

Knowing ginnivan he’ll get a ticket to the swans port prelim

 

[Gavin Excell]

Port aren't more polished but they managed to uncharacteristically turn up to this game like they haven't been able to turn for a final in quite a while. I reckon the last time they were this competitive was the 2020 prelim against the Tigers.

Yawn

Richmond

100%.

Not at all. Percentages were always with Port - you don’t finish second for no reason even allowing for last week. Teams in 5-8 come into the finals with momentum every year but will ALMOST always run into a better side by this stage.

There was a big margin between the top 5 and the rest of the competition. Carlton probably cruelled by injury to key players at a horrible time but Bulldogs and Hawthorn were always going to have to step it up a couple of gears come week 2. Hawthorn probably achieved above what could be expected of them both tonight and for the year. Competed well to stay in it but I'd argue Port didn't capitalise on their early dominance mixed with Hawthorn getting a couple of lucky ones had that a lot closer than it should've been.

 

[guruisatiger]

Ha ha

Dunstalls thoughts?

Dunstall not on tonight

 

[HeavyPop]

Doubt it changes Hawks list plans going forward, but wonder if they really need both Barrass and Battle? Chol was a non factor tonight and Lewis can’t stay fit, feel like they are a KPF short.

 

[hirdylloydy1]

Sorry, but I just spent the last 3hrs in a club listening to a Vic flog mouthing off about how we joined your league and should know our place and when I pointed out that the VFL would be broke without expansion he went ballistic, cracked the shits and had to get his mrs to drag him out before he 'did something that would stop him drinking there'.
****ing Vic flogs cant handle losing haha.

should have pointed out that the hawks are an expansion club, same as port

 

[HTPunter]

If the opposition need ammo to fire up I'd say that's more on the oppo than anyone.

Seriously it's a cutthroat final. What more motivation do you require?

Think about Ed Langdon before the Pies match a couple of years back.

There’s nothing wrong with Ginni saying it. But clearly Port are going to use it as motivation & footy is ultimately played between the ears - Port started hot & Hawks were fumbly as.

Maybe Hawthorn required that extra bit - that extra bit that makes Jordan Sweet chase deep into the final quarter even though he’s so gassed he can barely take his free kick?

 

[MtGHawk]

Hawks commentators more biased than abc moderators

No MAGA weirdness allowed here. Yes like all former players there's an element of bias when they commentate their old team.

 

[SSSSSS]

Newcombe, Scrimshaw and Watson can hold their heads up high.

Everyone else needs to take a good hard look at themselves.

Maginess and Morrison were good.

Hardwick minus the one brain fade was excellent.

 

[Mayes2Gray]

Stay classy m8

Always mate. Always.

 

[Acinath]

I think Hardwick and Maginness were good too

 

[hawkman]

We should report a few delayed concussion symptoms for Chol, Moore and Impey. That will really wind Ken up

If Ginnivans comment wasn’t something then the opposing coach wouldn’t go off like he did.

After supporting him for 3 years I can tell you, when he’s good he’s great. But when he’s bad he’s really f’ing bad.

 

[catters05]

Fk foxfooty are pathetic

 

[Micksy]

Hokball has held our attention like the average TikTok.
Now we just need to decide if it's BRAT, or DEMURE?

Maybe Ken was asking Sicily if he wanted to take a selfie??

 

[Chuckie357]

Do you blokes even remember what finals past week one looks like?

We certainly know where our record stands in GF’s…among others

Absolutely, the media can't love it only going one way. I was hoping someone would reply to him after the game
