News Hawk for life, Luke Breust. Signs to 2025. Kicks 500 goals!

[grumbleguts]

Classy post man.

grumbleguts sorry to hear mate - best wishes to you & your family.

Thank you. Funeral is Thursday, was a massive Hawks fan from 1940 onwards, I hope the club can lift this year for him. Sadly due to border closures I'll have to sit the funeral out.

Will kick more than Dermott. That is damn impressive. Been a star.

Edit: imagine the uproar if Dermie was put up as a suggestion for trade on a regular basis!

Dermie would have kicked over 600 had he not lost so many games through injury and suspension. It's criminal he only kicked 427 really.

 

[Roger Rogerson]

Superstar.

 

[MrPremiership]

Have loved watching his career from day 1, and love that I can watch it in Hawthorn colours for a few more, and hopefully to the end.

Did anyone really think he'd ever go?

 

[Rushed_Behind]

Was a little soft early. Took a hit vs crows at the G. At the time I thought his career could only go 2 ways. 3 flags later glad to say I was wrong. Been a very good player and top 5 in his position for most of his career.

 

[eldorado]

Could easily end with 500+ goals, making him an all-time-great small forward

 

[The hands of stone]

Great news , did a fantastic interview on SEN last week . Sounds a really impressive guy .

Let the record show that Breust has now, in a horribly performing team, kicked 29 goals for the year, and is a chance (outside perhaps) to kick 40 for the year.

I'm looking forward to being there when he kicks his 500th in 2023, placing him firmly in a small list of truly great small forwards.

Viva Punky! Retire a Hawk legend!

Not back for a rookie from a rugby background

Really?

That must be why he's so good with the fend off...you would have thought somebody would have mentioned it before now...

 

[TylerDurden]

Such a champion.

Punky was doing the don't-argue before Dusty was in nappies.

 

[Hodgey 15]

But we're still going to trade him...right?

Think of the kittens

Can he play basketball ?

 

[MrPremiership]

What a warrior he's been. Just doesn't miss many games either and isn't slowing down. The bloke could easily play for another 5 years.

2011: 17 games
2012: 24
2013: 25
2014: 25
2015: 25
2016: 24
2017: 21
2018: 24
2019: 22
2020: 13
2021: 17

Think he's only missed 6 games from debut 11 seasons ago....

One of the best & smartest small forwards in the game.

His been a star for a long time & his experience to our young developing forwards is invaluable.

People can say he was made to look good in a three-peat side with champions but his performances in an average side show just how good a player his been.

‘oh wait….

Bruest must be one of those Clarko ‘favourites’ I keep reading about

Incidentally, a quick search sees Dermott 2cm taller and 10kg heavier than broosty

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

Right up there with Cyril and Eddie as the best small forward of the last decade.
