Review Hawthorn v Cats - match sim - Thursday 23rd Feb, GMHBA

[MatteeG]

Rather get a whipping early and realize the hard work is still to do. Should ensure no slacking on the track.

 

[Yardie]

Just come out of back to back meetings. How much are we up by?

Go back is all I can say........

 

[TylerDurden]

Stengle ripping us.

 

[burger09]

Butler one of few positives

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Clanger after clanger

Given how many sides are in transitional periods at the moment I'd say Geelong are probably odds on to win it again this year as they have such great continuity with their playing group / coaching panel / game plan. And the sides that have similar levels of continuity (Brisbane, Sydney, etc) have shown they are a rung below the Cats.

I think what today is showing us is that it takes quite a while to embed a game plan across a list (especially when the game plan is so radically different to the old coaches).

 

[Titch3Votes0MooreAA]

When I say our defence is definitely taking the piss today, I mean it...

 

[peetoo]

End of quarters, end of game, end of season. Hawks will look ordinary. It’s the age/experience thing

 

[Jazzfan]

Worpel has actually had a good start to second half

Its the defensive side of the game plan that is sorely lacking at present

Seems like the Hawthorn social media team has had enough and packed it in for the day. No tweets in the last 30 minutes.

Wasn't expecting anything, so can't be disappointed. Even the cliche of demonstrating how much work needs to be done before the club is competitive again is fairly meaningless, because we all knew that heading in to this afternoon.

 

[Bardo State]

DGB good contest

 

[Max Powers]

Nice Blanck

 

[TylerDurden]

Blanck good.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

The gulf in class between these 2 clubs is absolutely wild.

One positive though is I've liked the look of Day in the midfield.

 

[HedgeFund]

Worpel has actually had a good start to second half

Yep he’s been good by hand.

 

[burger09]

Reminds me of our trip to Darwin. Foreign ground, hot and obliterated.

One touch class- they have plenty, we have very little.

Hope for better next week.

No chance mate, the cliff is here... Cats 14th.

Looks like big max lynch is on reeves still on

 

[eldorado]

Appalling skills and decision making...

 

[Titch3Votes0MooreAA]

I think you'll see the elderly put up a better defensive performance when their homes are being invaded by youth than what we've exemplified...

 

[Mercy Seat]

How’s Weddle going?

 

[TylerDurden]

Dimma looks off.
