Out of curiosity, how do you explain Hawthorn finishing lower on the ladder, winning less games, having a lot worse percentage (despite a 120 point win against a basket case). Whilst a couple of mids took a massive leap, another one rediscovered how to play footy and your captain was magnificent.
We could easily have won 10 games.. we lost 3 games we should have won but choked..next season we win at least 2 of the below if game script is similar:
Round 5- lost by 2 against GWS having led by 2 goals late in the last quarter
Round 6- lost by 3 against the Crows having led by 2 goals late in the last quarter
Mitch Lewis and Will Day, 2 of our 4 best players didn’t play.
Round 19- lost by 1 against the Tigers, having led by 5 goals in the last quarter.
Our 2023 was a much better season on-field than 2022 and much more enjoyable as a supporter..We beat Collingwood and Brisbane who made the gf…beat st kilda who were in the top 6 all season and beat the Bulldogs…went with the Demons for 3.5 quarters.
Give me that any day as the youngest side in the comp than winning one extra game with the likes of Mitchell, O’Meara & Shiels playing.
