Whats bothered me most about this season has been the old, "this is Hawthorn's last hurrah".
Amid all the noise, I think one big thing has been missed.
We are 5-2 and blooding some valuable game time into some super exciting kids who will only be better for it.

Brand
Langford
Howe
O'Brien
Sicily
Have all had their ups and downs this year, but how much better have they been for the run?
Sure, we will get the big boys in Frawley, Hodge, Mitch and Rough soon enough - but we could be in for something special later this year if the youth and experience start to click.
