[The Jet From Poowong]

Explains Dimmas demeanour at yesterday’s presser

 

[birch]

Mills wasn't really near Aliir Aliir

Because he’d sprinted off the line to celebrate

 

[theiaofseed]

Death bells are ringing for their season.

Sydney and Melbourne to come and could very well be one win from their first 6 games. Saints, Port, Melbourne, Sydney and the Dogs twice.

Edit ~ I said last year they will only make finals due to their easy draw of double ups Carlton(9), Essendon(15), Hawthorn(13), West Coast(17) and the Lions(6). This year theyre looking at at 4-5 finalist from their double ups instead of 3 bottom 4 teams.

He was celebrating even before this? Just LOL if he was, that's inexcusable.

Such a shame

Makes it even sweeter knowing one particular journo tipped them AGAIN to win the premiership. No bias

Bombers kicking drunk in front of goal. Hope it costs them

Cheats v Giants is one of the worst games I’ve ever seen

This GWS Dons game is the worst standard game I have witnessed in some time.

This GWS Dons game is the worst standard game I have witnessed in some time.

Dogs-tigers game in the pouring rain yesterday was way more skilful than this.

 

[H00t]

Brave to share. I’m sure this little BF Hawks community joins me in wishing you all the best H00t.

Thank you, I appreciate it

 

[Billyc]

Giants are terrible. We'd be a decent chance against them in Adelaide next week

 

[Jazzfan]

Gotta love Draper.

This is what we need to see from Meek and his frame, but sadly he just seems to smart to go all Draper. Hopefully he can start bringing some physicality soon.

 

[H00t]

POTS is a prick. new drugs are coming online all the time. Drugs affecting heart pump function was my field of research. There are many people working on drugs to help with POTS and other conditions affected by abnormal heart pump function.

I hope that for your sake, massive breakthroughs are just around the corner.

Thank you.

I’m definitely hopeful those breakthroughs are around the corner.

That also would have been a very interesting field of research.

 

[OnTheRocks]

gws have the really poor decision making players

 

[rei154]

Cadman simply must debut next week you'd think.
GWS forward structure is abysmal.

 

[FB19]

God this game is awful 2 teams going nowhere

 

[Billyc]

Essendon should have won that by 10 goals. Giants are really poor, they look like finishing bottom 4 again.

Before the tigers went on their trading campaign I thought they we’re in a good position to bring in some good young talent. However now it seems they have wasted picks on mids that will not take them to past glories. The player I feel will be wasted in that team is Bolton. I look forward to the year he becomes a free agent. He will be rolling in the $$$$.

The thing is, when you have generational talent on your list supported by a core of absolute elite talent that have combined to collect multiple flags, you really can't begrudge the risk taking of rolling the dice and top up before that talent is gone. Yes, you can take the easy path and shorten your rebuild and keep the picks, but who knows the next time (if at all) you'll be able to amass the talent you already on your list.

Wow, who could have have foreseen that a guy with 9 concussions before retirement was inevitably going to be susceptible to more?

Ludicrous that he played again, he needs to stop.

CTE is a massive threat to him in the future...he is risking everything.

Agreed. It’s just not worth it. I wish the young man well but really, he needs to think about the next 50 years of his life, not the next 5. If he was my son I know what I would be recommending.
Am curious if the AFL have their own, independent (lol, I know) specialists to advise on issues such as these. Take it out of the clubs hands, that sort of thing.
If so, I’d be interested to know their expert medical opinion on Paddy A: resuming his career with the swans 18 months or so ago and B: If they will be assessing him in light of his recent concussion.

 

[Mercy Seat]

He was celebrating even before this? Just LOL if he was, that's inexcusable.

More damning is Mills (?) standing on the goal line then running off celebrating seconds prior

 

[burner1]

Essendon should have won that by 10 goals. Giants are really poor, they look like finishing bottom 4 again.

Very winnable game for us next week.

 

[TylerDurden]

Stringer 10 shots on goal and a torp from 60m on the run. He's a freakshow.

 

[HawthornHawk]

He sure was, take a look

He does that about once a year, just in time for contract renewal.

I tipped them for 9th. Reckon I will be a fair way off
