Game Day NAB challenge: Hawthorn v Richmond, Beaconsfield

[Strapping Young Lad]

here it is!

 

[grumbleguts]

Looking forward to seeing a little bit of rioli on rioli. One who knows how it's done and one who will want to play for Hawthorn once finals hit.

hope Shem gets a decent run

Hope Shem gets a run period! Any chance for Lachie Langers or JML either? They were the three left out last time. I also really want to see more of Willsmore and Miles but surely they all cant play so would happily watch any 3 of the 5 take the field. Might only be 2 of them playing though my gut says.

Thorough security guys for the players & staff car entrance, already holding up traffic.

And they're not letting supporters in just yet, we're all queuing at the bag check entrances.

Full on for a 7000 crowd.

Im looking forward to Shem's first outing. The first of many I hope!

Closest parking for spectators is approximately 1km away. Hope you all didn't bring the kitchen sink.

Not this weekend JML Langers and Shem out

I have all my fingers and toes crossed for no ****ing injuries.

That is always my main focus before I worry about who plays well and taking an interest in the young kids.

Same 3 omitted as last week. I suspect all 3 will play Nab Challenge next year and that the club wants to get another years experience into them at Box Hill. Shem and L.Langers are fairly newish to our system ( i know Shem isnt all that new but he is coming from a fair way back being an NZ boy with no previous aussie rules experience), and it looks like they want to give JML another year learning his new role on a half back flank.

Can't wait to see Hardwick, Lovell, Miles and Willsmore!

Seems unlikely we will see Shem this preseason now

it wouldn't be an altogether bad result if we got spanked. Getting humbled leading into the season proper would be a good reminder the flag is in the past.

Would be good not to lose to Richmond though. Their supporters are up there with the worst!

Waaaay too much effort for a pratice match.

ha, yes. And regardless of course it would suck to lose. though in reality the result really doesn't matter.

 

[BigLittleHawk]

Hoping for at least 1 of Fitzpatrick, Sicily and TOB to take a few grabs and get to many contests. One of them needs to stand up. I'm thinking Roughy replacement will be high on our priority list.

Would be nice to see how Lovell and Hardwick go. And hopefully JOR and Litherland can play well enough to prove me wrong! (And all the other fans who aren't convinced yet).

Does anyone know why Langers isn't playing again?

 

[Brant]

Pretty happy to se Lovell get a run.

 

[LuvMyHawks]

Golly, many tall players for the Tigers...

Yes.

He fell off his boat and had to swim 5km back to shore.. injuring his knee in the meantime

Smart ass behaviour aside, he has a minor knee injury and is likely to be named next week. As is Cegs.
