Quiet week in the media for Hawks this week

[cuttlefish]

Is it just me, or has this been an incredibly quiet week for Hawthorn, media-wise ?
I understand we had the bye, but I need something to talk about !

I was just thinking the same thing and then found an article in SMH about how some of the senior blokes went for BHH on the weekend.

Keep it under the radar, fly low, don't let the enemy notice you, by stealth we will conquer the Big prize at the end of the year, true to the Hawthorn Doctrine, this is the Hawthorn Way.....

Lewis might get a recall ?

#1 for assists in the AFL and hes had 3 weeks off.


"Lewis is Innocent"

PS I'm detecting early signs that that Stephen Bradbury is also pulling his Hawks Jumper back on

Might as well save the flogs the effort and dedicate our 2011 triumph to him (when we win of course)

Yeah AFL and media only want to mention us when bad stuff is happening. I think the Heath Shaw and Mick Malthouse sagas are now on the front page and fodder for selling papers out of almost nothing (Malthouse).

I don't mind going under the radar at all.

I noticed a mention of Brent Guerra in relation to the AFL betting scandal. It appears a game in which he started forward is under investigation. It does not refer to Guerra in a negative light.

I hate the bye. It fracks with my finely calibrated footy internal clock.

Everyone's doing it except us.... It's a bit like wearing a Hazchem suit at a nudist colony.

Is this our home game against Melbourne?

Is this our home game against Melbourne?

I reckon it might a replacement... at least that's what my fridge magnet is telling me. Any advances on that, peeps?

 

[HolyRioli]

Did you miss the Allan Jeans thing?

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Suits me if the media aren't talking about us ... I don't listen anyway.

 

[Linda Crescent]

Did you miss the Allan Jeans thing?

.... touché monsieur.

Did you miss the Allan Jeans thing?

No disrespect, but that was last week..

 

[BigAl3001]

This is what it would have felt like had we been merged in '96.

Malthouse getting all the attention on the coaches front. Gives all the other coaches a week, or two, out of the spotlight.


With the Hawk boys spending time out of Melbourne a couple of light articles can be found likewise.

And something a little more thought provoking from Tim Boyle.

I just read Tim's deep and thought provoking article and I was very impressed. Equally, it is a sad state of affairs that none of our main-stream journo's could ever pen anything of equal substance nor would ever attempt to.
