Analysis Hawthorn rebuild: are they tanking?

[RCAB]

Classless as expected.

If only I could be bothered looking through your posts about the Pies prior to the 2022 and 2023 seasons……

You're calling Strapping Young Lad classles you've shat on the Hawks for two years? How is that they made top 6 while you pummeled Hawks supporters when they where down, and then call other people classless.

You can't even admit you were way off. Nobody should take anything you say with any credibility.

I like the description. Mole works for you. Glad you can see that.

Hawks took a risk on inexperience and it's paying off massively. I sure as hell didn't see it coming, but really don't care about being wrong.

Mitchell looking like he could be one of the great coaches. I think you'll win the flag as you've got a group of serious runners that are running patterns that are ahead of the comp in two phases of the game - spreading the field on defensive half intercept in a way that teams aren't coping with and burning teams on turnover by sprinting at tacklers with support runners holding width. Whilst in retrospect you were right and it was there to see in the back half of last year - I thought it was just other teams being flat on the day making you look better than you were late last year. Ultimately, I think it will either take you getting absolutely smacked in contest, stuffing up an end game scenario, or a very good coach combatting your spread to beat you this year.

You were WAY OFF

You were WAY OFF

Yes. I'm devastated. My penis must be really small.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

No need to be embarrassed.
Keep trawling. I’ve got better things to do than point out your numerous posts in 2022 and the start of 2023 about how rubbish the Pies were and then they go a win the premiership.

Vinny being wrong… it’s like the sun coming up.

So you never rubbished the Pies in 2022 and 2023?

Hey Hero,

Show me where I went back to quote posts from your mod shiiting on the Pies when we became premiers.

I challenge you to find 1 post.

You won your 1st final in 9 years and your mod is going back searching for posts.

I don’t know of any other mod on Bigfooty who attempts to inflame situations like yours.

Be grateful. If you check my posts on the Pies board you will see how I’ve admired how they are playing. Some Hawthorn fans have been over, so you’re welcome to come along.

But if I hurt your feelings a couple of years ago, I’m very sorry. Be strong. Someone loves you.

Could have sworn this thread was about Hawthorn, but I think you’re giving away the reason you went so hard in here early in the year, eh.

You always find a reason to never admit it.

Went harder at them this year to be fair, funny how you don’t want to mention that.

50yr old single male?

Keep swinging, vinnie.

43?

 

[Kobe Gryant]

Yes. I'm devastated. My penis must be really small.

That's how it works on here, right?

I'm hoping it just shrinks and there wasn't an obligation in the terms of conditions to take out a razor for being way off the mark.

 

[Long Live HFC]

Make sure it is backdated to the 6th and at least you’ll be back for one of the prelims.

Respect. Few people own their mistakes, especially on BF.

Only when your team is cold.

"It's just a really cold room, I swear!!!"

Narrator: It wasn't.

I have discredited the Hawks saying they have played poor opposition and made to look better than they are.

Well your team shows up nearly every week showing an amazing amount of consistency especially for a young side. I can’t say I enjoy it but I have to acknowledge it.
I think you’ll beat Port because as a team you’re more reliable to show up.

Thanks to your team for softening them up

"Alright. As long as you're willing to admit that."

Hawthorn won't be anywhere close to flag over the next decade, which will destroy their notoriously fair weather supporter base

Love reading this stuff from less than 2 years ago

 

[Xtreme]

Tanking for sure, just not that good at it

They should reward the Hawks with the 2024 premiership for their efforts.

No, the need to use the word ‘champ’ is the true melt.

Writing Hawthorn off for any medium-long term scale is very foolish.
