Unfortunate. Few cooked Hawk supporters around the main board think Kolo should have got rubbed out for the contest
Pretty awful story. Hope those days are gone.Pies' fans at Swans games in Sydney were utterly horrendous! There was a young guy, who sat near us, with a developmental disability. They grabbed him + stuffed his head in a blocked toilet. He was covered in poo, highly distressed. Other guys we knew cleaned him up. My Mum told Barrassi, who organised a full Swans' strip for him, runners too.
The Pies' fans, who attacked him were rounded up + banned from SCG.
Yet, Pies' fans at 2011 GF were delightful. When I went outside for a gasper, they took me to their tent, forced VB + Longbeach gaspers on me. Had a great halftime with them + missed Meatloaf
Although on the plus side - you did miss meatloaf!
He has. But also reflects I suspect our coaches love for the role he is playing
good to see Jezza back where he belongs as well as Tommy. And of course SDK as the prototype ruckman!

Top 3 in those votes are so important. Cameron has been better recently but was huge apart from his finishing. SDK first votes this year I think and Stewart rarely been there. Need those 3 firing come finals to be any chance.
Very sad to hear this. It was great to see him back, but this is terrible news. The hawks have been one of the best teams to watch in the last couple of months, and his return could have really enhanced their forward line.
Stewart has actually been in the votes 4 times this season (plugs thread update), but much less frequently than 2023. Twice early and twice recently, with a lean patch in the middle.
Your point stands and is obvious. We struggled when Cameron and Stewart were not dominating, or even playing well at all. The other veterans can't carry us anymore so we do need big performances from the two who are still in their prime (albeit moving out of it soon) and can be top 10 players in the league on their day.
And Mannagh straight into a vote on return.
Not all heroes wear capes. But they do wear hoops.

They collided going for the mark, maybe Kolo the punch, but both were watching the ball. Mitch Lewis' head injury was a result of the collision, his leg injury was just shocking luck.
Close will allow him an extra mulligan next time out on the course.
Mannagh is not a kid. He understands this is his big opportunity, like Pods, Mene, Kelly, Stengle etal. You can see he wants it, and in VFL gets around his teammates. He will know to take on any instructions from the club. Good teams find and utilize this kind of asset.
I like how also, though new to the top level, isn't afraid to give some lip back to the oppo players. Not intimidated being out there, just hungry.

My favorite part of Clark’s game was his possession map, a kid who runs harder defensively than forward.
Good thanks
I suppose being invisible in the rear-view mirror is a boon for his run-down tackling.
Well, for once, I disagree, Daz.
I am one of the oldest "Codgers" at games these days. I like the after goal music....especially the energy filled, thumpy stuff, whatever it is.
Keeps the energy going after a goal (and before the next)
Some younger members in the crowd near my standing room place actually got going together and sang one of them, I think, in our first home game. That was even better.
Loved it.
I am getting Paul Chapman vibes from Mannagh….

I thought he was good on the night but on reflection he was better than I gave him credit for, and I gave him a bit of credit
Good if we can keep him in the team.
Having 4 dangerous hard working goal kicking smalls is a unique position to be in, and creates multiple headaches for the opposition ,especially in slippery winter conditions.
