Autopsy Hawthorn v the great pretenders

[bigton08]

I didn't pencil this one in, I just felt without hodge the toughness wouldn't be there... But it was... Such a great feeling to beat these pricks ... God they are dirty dirty dirty football club... I'm proud of the boys even though at times they were farting around...Cyril just amazes me he is a god! He just gave it to those north players... He wasn't taking no shit ... Ha ha love it!! We won't be top due to percentage but hell we're making our presence felt.

So you're agreeing then, kudos.

Yep, they say Selwood doesn't duck rather he shrugs the tackle upwards. That's what Sicily was doing.

 

[Bedi]

jesus Burgoyne was good tonight. we simply wouldn't have won without him.

 

[Harry Flashman]

Brad Scott's press conference is so salty haha. Someone call the whambulance to etihad.

 

[Off The Couch]

Sicily should get the rising star vote this weekend

 

[burger09]

Chad Scott looks like hes sucking a lemon out of a cats ass.

[market]

but why didn't Norf come out and try and put some physical pressure on...

Hodgey wasn't even playing, so had their best chance to rough us up, ohh well fair enough...

ohh and EAD Norf..

 

[randall boner]

Gee them Scott brothers are sooks...mission accomplished. Phfft

 

[Ctlmcl]

If Ziebel doesn't get weeks for his hit tonight due to no injury to Mitchell I would ask them to look to the injuries to Swallow and Goldstein where Lewis and Hodge got rubbed out for

 

[SSSSSS]

Wasnt there supposed to be another one.... Peachtree or someone?

AKA the 2nd worst 250 gamer ever. Firrito is #1.

Will have the worst 400 gamer next week or the week after.

 

[skwunk]

With that press conference you'd think Lindsay Thomas had 16 frees against a no frees for, he had 2 frees for and 2 frees against. Wasn't much of a big deal.

 

[grumbleguts]

Those blue and white striped shirts looked interesting. I wonder if they make them for men.

Duryea's game on Harvey under rated

Defensive work was top class. His kicking left a lot to be desired though but he's had a better month than his first.

Hopefully he's working back to form.

 

[Big Sim is Back]

Nicely done Hawks.

Have a look at tough guy jack z's stats and that tells you all you need to know about Norf.

Now you guys need to do an Adelaide and make such a fuss about the free kick count that the umps are instructed to give you a free ride next week in compo.

Jesus Keeeriiist! Blame the umpires. What a flog.

Anyone needing a reason to hate the roos just needs to watch that presser by Scott. What a whining campaigner.

 

[smeltitdeltit]

David King whining about Sicily being the 4th most paid player for ducking
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!
Edit: and now complaining that Thomas didn't get paid for tackles that were high that were exactly the same crap.

Bruce to Watson Sr.: So Tim was that a high free kick to Sicily?
Watson: Absolutely not Bruce, that's the one they don't like!
Ling: But according to the current rules, is it high?
Watson: well, yes according to the current rules it is.

WTF?

The hit was on Mitch yeah, nothing to see here play on...

Love the bit where Mitch was off with a cork or something and you could hear a s****** and a small chuckle, trust me this will be lucky to be a fine...

 

[DrEvil_]

Played shit. Concerning.

 

[Noneedforaname]

Hahaha. So good on your north, the peoples champions, May champions, 9 in a row, GOAT. You open the rooms, your so accessible, so media friendly. After the game tonight, media lockout, no player interviews. No greater sooks.

Take your bat and your ball and piss off home. Tail between your legs. Pissants.

WTF?

Watson Sr should have lost his job during the Essendon BS. Bias campaigner. He'd be a great addition to the Esssenscum Twitter feed or Facebook page - but he's not worthy of a talking head and sports presenter role.

Exact same discussion was done on fox

Dermie laughing at King
Scott said it was a free kick when dermie called Thomas on it a few weeks back and he said that he hope he supported that tonight in regards to Sicily. He was then asked "what about Clarko" and he said "Clarko already said he doesn't like it and the Hawks have got some but other clubs more and that the rule lends itself to players putting themselves in a position to get badly hurt. He said as it stands it's a free whether you like it or not but Thomas should of got a couple himself but for the "boy who called wolf"

I loved the bit at 3/4 time saying to Sewell that it was just a matter of taking their chances this next qtr and the rest will just happen...

Co ck Smoker, big time...

Just got home.. It was a mixture of pain and joy tonight, I deadset couldn't believe the first half free kicks, it was a mind feck.

I'm just wrapped we put this joker club to bed, they are simply front running could a beens.

Gibbo was beyond immense, he hasn't been mentioned a great deal but his reading of the play and peeling off is unbelievable. What goes with out much broadcasting is his closing speed, the guy has serious wheels when needed.

My love for Sicily is growing, the guy needs to be nicknamed X-Factor because that's exactly what he has spades. James tore Thompson a new arseh*le, you could see at the game that his running patterns, athletisicm was to much for him to handle. Brilliant game.

TOB - not there for me just yet. Had a few nice touches but only the 2 marks which means he wasn't getting any seperation. I think he'll get there but it may not be this year.

Overall happy to bank the 4 points and move on, North aren't a top 2-3 side.

On a side note - kudos to Goldstein, the man was on 1 leg, could barely run and get off the ground in any way and still battled on, a true warrior.

I don't know whether to troll BF or FB.

Titus has beaten you to Facebook:

"That game had it all, Hawthorn winning, North losing."
