[Rexcellent]

[bak2bak8889]

well if its about gameday... How many of us at B.F are going???????? give an estimate crowd figure? final scores , leading goalkicker and B.O.G.. Bak2bak will be there for sure, with 38,524 others, watching roughy kick 6, with the final scores Haw: 17 14 116 to Rich: 14 20 104 and Brownlow Crawf B.O.G. ALSO think M.Thorp will debut,

 

[LuvMyHawks]

Thurgood omitted, Jacobs out (ankle)
THORP IN!!! DIXON IN..

But I also just heard on Channel 7 that Bateman is definitely not playing..injured.

What gets me is that Jacobs has been named as an emergency, why would he be if he is injured..
I hope Tucky gets to play in Bateman' s place..

 

[dipper86]

In: Thorpe and Dixon
Out Jacobs(inj) Thurgood(omitt)

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG WHAT GREAT PLAY! FANTASTIC GOAL FROM FRANKLIN, I THINK THAT'S HIS TENTH!!!




























(sorry, but it WILL happen)

Hope we come out all guns blazing and play tough footy early on! No point just turning up and going through the motions. Buddy will kick 4 and be the difference. That i

Tigers Richo will dominate the forward line, kick a ripper goal from 55 and kick 1.4 from inside 30. What's new lol? As long as Richo doesn't contribute on the goal sheets majorly I will be happy.

Hawks by 25pts.

 

[cradle of filth]

Richo will be a big worry IMO. Trent Croad has a bad record on him and i don't think Stephen Gilham has the run to keep up with him. Campbell Brown has gotten the job done on the big forwards before but Richo is bigger than the average key forward. Josh Thurgood doesn't have the strength or pace to hold him.

In the end, i think Croad will get the job on him. He MUST have a big game if we are to win.

hahahahahahaha!! you are kidding to contemplate he is worth a second chance, hoped he had a blinder last week to prove himself worthy

he has great endevour but he is not up to it and we must not persevere with him in the side when we have players that deserve there shot in the seniors.

trade him to north for 1st round pick

richo can dominate and we'll still win by 10 goals. hawthorn's strength in this game will be a solid team effort across the board, compared to the tiges.

yes it will happen, but will you say god that many times, lol

 

[bak2bak8889]

rapt to see m.thorp get a go. now the question is wether he starts on the bench. forward flank, CHF or where?????

 

[Robber Baron]

Were gunna destroy them, theres no way there even gunna kick 10 goals. We win by 100 points.

 

[hawks2008premiers]

Too cocky ....

Ive been reading all the threads and I think supporters are underestimating the overall comp on any given day anyone can beat anyone in this years comp so what im saying do not write off the tiges even though there win/loss ratio is poor they have been competitive in most games.

 

[Jimmyboy9]

Lets Hope it Rains at the G today!!

I think for us to trully bounce back today and squash the doubt our players have in their minds about wet weather footy, we need to play in wet conditions at the G and WIN.

I think Richmond are a big threat this week whether it is wet or not and hope for our sake that we can play strong in and under footy.

The West Coast demolition makes our % look ok now and all we have to do is focus on winning today and get our confidence running again.

Im tipping us by less than 5 goals.

Is it televised?

 

[tommyk72]

Is it televised?

Yes Buddy - it's on delay at 3pm on 7 I think (at least in Melbourne it is!).

On a side note - i'm just about to head to the game myself. Does anyone have an update on Changa and the rumours he's not going to play?

 

[Roughie]

Sticky this. Brown is being incredibly unnacountable, he is trying to help out in every contest and letting Nathan Brown rove every pack.

Roughie is hot 4 goals at half time.

 

[Gary Shadforth]

Finally receiving 3MM radio discription here in Singapore. Just in time to hear about Mitch Thorps' first goal and then hit the post going wit his next attempt.

 

[Gary Shadforth]

And now Roughies' fifth!

 

[Gary Shadforth]

Caller on 3MMM has just called the Hawks 'arrogant'. Good!

 

[Roughie]

I think we were everything but arrogant today? Brown and Johnson missed sitters and no one gave them a crack over it, and never got in anyones face after a goal?

Prob a richmond supporter.
