Players who are in better form than Brian Lake

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

He's not in as a good form as this bloke. Assume this is what the OP wanted?

Who is? JR is killing it right now. Tim Watson got it right (rare occurence that!) GWS have gone after the wrong guy!

 

[The Lyncha]

Bumpity bumpity bump

 

[11sjw]

Considering Lake got one is last night considered a nett 1 goal to Tippett?

 

[Northworth]

recruit of the year? or xavier at tiger land?

He now has the 'hopeless 1 vs 1' curse that comes with playing in Hawthorns backline.

Looks good as a third man up (which every play does).

Will get destroyed by Hawkins when he is high on pain meds in the GF.

Unfortunately, Hawkins probably won't be in the GF - we'll be playing your purple friends!

He played 1 on 1 at the Doggies for a decade. Third man up's not really his style.

Jack Riewoldt had better form today

Hawkins was the bloke that pulled out of the Cats side when he heard McPharlin was playing, right?

Premiership player and Norm Smith medalist!

Is this thread a backfire or not? I honestly cannot tell.

Totally! Probably a rare Doggie supporter that's actually happy for him.

Funny ownage of bosk by none other than Bosk. Free Bosk I immediately mods deserve to have his chance to come snd spit shit.

It's not exactly ownage though, Lake delivered the Hawks a flag.

 

[Northworth]

self gratifying ownage

Am I doing it right?

And just for some more lulz, this is the article that it comes from ...

CAMERON Mooney has warned of the "huge threat" a stronger and more aggressive Tom Hawkins will pose to opposition backlines this season.
...But Mooney pointed to further improvement this year, saying his protege had learnt even more tricks to help become multidimensional in his leading patterns.
And in a warning to defenders who dare try and fill his space, Mooney urged Hawkins to use his imposing physical frame to crash and bash the opposition this year.

'lulz' indeed a few month after this — when the 'huge threat' of a 'more aggressive tom hawkins' that mooney warned about came to be... should have listened to mooney, instead of allowing him to tear apart your team in the QF as an appetiser to doing the same in the PF and GF.

good post

on a more related note, i was very happy for lake yesterday. good on him, played a first class game, and loved seeing how excited he was when announced as the winner.

hawthorn really turned him around — getting him to drop the weight, get fit, and he delivered.

Spud plodder who is good in a weak team in junk times and the flat track bully god. There is no way Ablett could beat Lake in footy let alone an eating or drinking booze contest. .

I doubt he needed much turning around. It not's like he was an ordinary player at the Doggies.

he was a terrific player at the dogs. he was out of condition though, and — correct me if im wrong — perhaps seen as a little 'past his best' when hawthorn picked him up.

Nail. There were many questioning him if he was up to the task. I was one but thought if he had the fitness side down pat then he would have a chance. Reality was I was well in on the fitness/weight area and happy to admit I was wrong in the best past him area as he really turned it on when things mattered and that's all what he had to do.
