Analysis Hawthorn rebuild: are they tanking?

[Saab NLAW]

Cool argument. Have fun with that one with whoever you're having it with.

Yet another example of who you are

You're angry I'm not willing to have an argument with someone that I'm not interested in.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

No, you proved my point.
All your posts are pretty much the same, smug and condescending, as you liked to boast about yourself just above, you are the perfect poster boy for BF

I liked to boast about myself?

More fabrications, like your "Hawthorn fans consensus was that they had a top 5 midfield".

Ironic last 8 words in your post.

You? You just lost it so ran away

It's okay Hawks fans there is win waiting for you when you play my Tigers.

Don't play until round 14 so you will have everyone back by then

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

No, you made some weird post about the Eagles injuries in 2023 and then somehow decided it was an argument about getting Reid instead of other later picks, like the Eagles had any say in it....

Not interested in whatever it is you're trying to argue or your vicbias stuff.

Maybe half of them. some are done for the year.

Whos out for the year?

 

[Daka]

It was tongue in cheek.
but i'll be surprised if we see Tom Lynch again this season.
Gibcus is out for the year.
Clarke done for the year. (not best 22) but imo should be.

Will probably have Taranto & Hopper, Balta back by round 14, Prestia will be probably touch & go by than not sure.

EDIT:
We also have a lot of players out injured long term that aren't our best players but we literally only have like 5 players left in the reserves. not sure what happens if we start to get more injury's is there such thing as running out of players what happens if you can't field 23 in the AFL?

I like Clarke, wanted us to grab him.

 

[Daka]

I like Clarke, wanted us to grab him.

Sam Banks, Ryan, Naithsmith, Matthew Coulthard, Noah Cumberland, Kaeleb Smith & Steely Green.

I think that's all we have left in reserves in less I am missing someone.

Good because I hate it when rebuilding clubs do that. He at least has had the courage Clarko never had to rebuild the list and I think he is a very good coach. I like the way he goes about it.

Clarko arguably built the list twice. The third attempt didn’t go so well. Bu the entire club was on board with that - see the last ‘five year plan’

Struggling to find where we see a win if we lose the unloseable this week

 

[BuddysBiggestFan]

Is there a Harley Reid in the draft this year?

Knowing our recruiters we’d **** up the pick anyway.

Not really, Finn O'Sullivan the early favourite but hasn't really jumped out of the blocks yet. Josh Smillie will possibly give it a nudge, midfieler in the moudl of Patrick Cripps(same height).

****, we are bad.

We need someone like Smillie then, our mids are a laughing stock, how Nash gets a game is mind boggling, and the ones we recruited in Ward, Mackenzie and Hustwaite aren’t much chop and more wasted top 5 picks.

 

[BuddysBiggestFan]

Nash out, Tuck in

Would offer a lot more then most of our current midfield

Husthwaite not a top 5 pick (think was 3rd round?)

A real Hawthorn supporter would probably know that Hustwaite was not a the top five pick.

Slagging off 20yr old mids is pretty easy to do.

No shit Sherlock

Ah yes. You're not a real Hawthorn supporter if you don't blindly follow.

It works for me
