Preview Hawks vs the COLA $wans and the man they call Juda$ - it's the big dance.

[Flag08]

In: BB and Cyril
Out: Cegs and Simpkin (both stiff)

That's our best side all year.

 

[SSSSSS]

C'mon, his name sounds like it starts with S.
You should be all over him

I love Syril but even I think his touch was way off. Grand Final has twice the pressure as well. It's a hard call and I don't think it's as easy as saying Cyril = Automatic selection.

 

[Ripper Rioli]

And what happens when he has to go at a 100
Do we bring Lewis in at 70% as well

If you think it was ever the plan for Cyril to go 100% today you're delusional. I'm sorry if I offend someone but it is a reserves competition, which Hawthorn decided was a good chance to give Cyril a training run at match intensity. Did a lot with tap ons etc. Back the club and the star player in to do what's right for the team and club

[Hawks1994]

To Cyril or not to Cyril? That is the question...

 

[tige19]

yea that extra $20 000 per player or whatever will be the reason we win the premiership

Pi$$ off

 

[tige19]

To Cyril or not to Cyril? That is the question...

It really shouldn't be a question.. He takes out our 22nd player who would be Simpkin, so for me it's a no brainer. Simpkin I feel is just about done with his career at HFC! Hartung,Sicily and Woodward need to be in round 1 2015

Not a fan of Shakespeare I presume?

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

For the third year in a row my gold membership has got cat 5 tickets.
Only going to get GA next year. Systems a ****ed

 

[walhawk]

Cyril could not keep up with the VFL boys today. No chance of a recall.
Changed my mind - No change unless Lewis out for Sewell.

You won't get tickets as a GA member

Rather than being insulting answer the question
Can they afford to have two players going at 70%
I would prefer Lewis at 70 over Cyril - they can't take both

A mate of mine who has Kennedy Club Memberships only got standing room last year.

Ridiculous system

I'm Kennedy.

2012 category 1 - front row, on fence right beside race where Hawks ran out
2013 category?? right up besides scoreboard at City end
2014 category 2

It's pure lottery. You know what though, the shit seats in 2013 have been the best so far. As long as we win..........

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Don't punish the club for the AFL's system. I pay for KC to support my team to the best of my ability - the GF ticket is a welcome bonus.

But you DO have grand final tickets, pity the poor souls who don't.

 

[ScottMaginness]

I'm wondering if the coaches think Sewell might have enough in the tank after two weeks off for one last big game. With that in mind :

In: Sewell, BigBoy
Out: Simpkin, Ceglar
Sub: Suckling

 

[Cyrilyouchampion]

In: BB and Cyril
Out: Cegs and Simpkin (both stiff)

That's our best side all year.

Woodie's stiff as well (or is that a tautology?)

How the hell did that happen, it is supposed to be best available?

 

[Hawks1994]

Who knows really? Who knows...

 

[Ned Ryerson]

It's not best available - it's a lottery. Random draw.

 

[MinerBoy]

Sod off to the campaigner board.

Syd really was a more appropriate chop out for the use of the word campaigner.

 

[onthemoney]

Not feeling confident in the slightest at the moment, I wonder if that will change during the week. Loser talk I know, but I'm worried we'll be about 6 goals off. Perhaps Port were just better than I thought they would be though.

Blergh... Least productive work week of the year, here we come. Carn you bloody Hawkers!

 

[aussielondon]

Perth has the same cost of living as Sydney. By that measure Freo should get COLA as well and be able to sign Frawley this year, Dangerfield next year while retaining all their crop of players. What's that? There's not 9 NRL franchises in Perth? Oh well, carry on then.

COLA does seem a bit silly to be honest. I mean what about Carlton players, that's a pricey area in Melbourne, so should they get more COLA than say Geelong?? I mean Geelong would be cheap to live I assume as it's not CBD, so then should they have less salary cap? (Port Adelaide is cheap to live too)... it's a total mess this COLA stuff in my opinion.

Cost of living extra rates works in jobs where people are paid MINIMUM wage, and really should not apply to a job where earning around $100,000 a year or so (like AFL footballers).

And just remember, hate springs from envy....

Actually hate springs from fear, at least that's what Yoda said

”Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”
