Oppo Camp Other Games Rolling Thread 2024 Edition

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

You have to have the “personnel” to execute the method.

 

[GreekLunatic]

Dear looks like a good player well done

Acting like they won the gf

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Exactly.

In terms of pure talent Hawks don’t have the best team on paper but their style works

Yep. Mitchell has said they are a very coachable side & they take everything he says literally. Once he fine tuned his message, they've taken it to a new level. Very quickly.

He's a very good coach.

 

[JLC]

Don't forget they were almost tanking to get Harley Reid. Imagine if they had him lol

I am hoping GWS beat the Swans. GWS off a week's break can beat the Hawks.

If Hawks make the GF they win it.

Yes they've recruited some average to good level players who are well suited to their method, the latter being thier competitive advantage at this point

Geelong vs Hawthorn Grand Final ?

It's happening isn't it ?

 

[TW Sherrin]

He's had 7 score involvements, 3 score assists, he's done his bit.

Lol...wow. in a side which has dominated for 3 quarters.

His selfish "me first" football and attitude will never change.

Don’t cry. Look at the Carlton odds.

In other words, Pies are old. Little prick

 

[TW Sherrin]

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

Correct. But as is his way he gets involved as it gets easier.

 

[TW Sherrin]

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.

Hardly touched it when the game was on the line.

That's what I posted earlier too.

How bizarre, if that were to happen, considering the dominance of interstate sides in the 8.

No
They are just the most recent games mate

Very good coach and equally unlikeable.
Demigod to sycophants like Cornes n co.

Yuck I don’t want any of these teams to win

 

[watt price tully]

I think you’re well understating their recruiting. It’s a pretty obvious point one needs not just method but capacity to implement it. They’ve got some brilliant players including Newcombe and Watson. All teams have a mixture of abilities but kicking skills seems a necessary condition for Hawthorn.

 

[Piesinmyeyes]

My allegiances are now with Brisbane
Or a Port miracle.
Rest can get stuffed.
(GWS still flogs from 2019 and sooks last yr)

Acting like they won the gf

first final in 6 years, so fair game tbh

 

[Pedro]

Disappointed for the Bullies. Thought they were a better show at it tonight. Oh well, can still look forward to Carlton losing I suppose. They only other result I care about

Not wrong tbf though hahaha

Ginners the media darling. You couldn't make it up (interview on SEN).

 

[Jen2310]

If they get past port, then hopefully one of the syd teams beat them in sydney
