Their best players have been rejects from other clubs. Not high draft picks.
And Mitchell is clearly a good coach.
If JB says “it’s nine years since Hawks made a final “ again I’ll throw up.
Geez it’s been such a drought.
Essendon supporters must be rapt about hearing that.

One player. They have about 9 reject players they got for a packet of chips each.

I would say Hawthorn more so than the Dogs.
Dogs never had a big supporter base to begin with.

Hawthorn bottomed out more or less for 6 years. They reap the benefit of selling players with currency and loyalty is not a factor as such. They used their draft picks well, recruited incredibly well, were able to manipulate the system to get Newcombe (? Spelling) after which the AFL as I understand it have closed the loophole and have astutely picked up players from other clubs.
I can’t stand them. Grubs in my humble opinion.

He’s in the bottom half dozen players for the Hawks again tonight.

Hawks are winning on method not personnel
It's a question of how quickly the rest of the comp can go to work on them

Wouldn’t think so either but Bont is a Star.

7 of their goals came from 2 1st year forwards
Watson and Dear (who pick for a pick in the 50's)

First half he had 8 disposals and 1 goal assist, was uninvolved. When game was hot he wasn’t a factor. Thats how I saw him tonight. And his issue IMO

Then they had a good bottom half.
He was good, pretty much at 100% by foot. Different player since he’s been given a bit of a license to move up the ground a bit.
Exactly.
In terms of pure talent Hawks don’t have the best team on paper but their style works

Just to twist the knife a bit, the Hawks have found a 10 year Key Forward in Dear.
Lewis?
It sounds like they will improve on paper with those additions.
But if the rest of the competition catches up/works them out, could be a flash in the pan season (their history suggests otherwise though)
