Game Day Round 1, 2022: Hawks v North, MCG Sunday March 20th at 1.10pm

[RoughysMullet]

Can anyone tell me if Horne Francis is playing? Haven’t heard his name mentioned for the millionth time yet

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Besides the shank it seems the players have no hesitation giving the ball to Finn. If he has their trust he has mine

 

[MinerBoy]

Cmon boys some good ball movement

Something to enjoy watching

Apologies for bringing you down with all that negativity

He got pushed in the back mate, if you're not a Hawthorn supporter fu** off out of the thread I've not seen you post a positive thing

 

[OnWardnUpWard]

CJ picking up from where he left off. Love to see it.

 

[Hodgey09]

Low key strong contender for the best quarter of Lewis' career.

Sensational work from him.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

Our midfield is still very much a work in progress it appears.

We so rarely ever get all of our mids firing at once, Mitchell is the only one I would feel comfortable backing in a weekly return.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

First quarter thoughts:

• Mitch Lewis - awesome quarter of footy.
• Gunston rusty but getting enough of it it won't matter
• If one of the young kids can step up and provid the polish that Shiels can't we'll be a lot better
• Reeves has been really good in the ruck. No chemistry with the rovers yet but it'll come.
• I love Sicily and he's a beast now.
• Breust would be really handy in this game
• CJ is a deadset gun

So good to have footy back.

 

[Big Hotdog]

Our mids are in clumps. So we have little spread when we win the ball.

Bloody mitch Lewis going OK

A lot to like for mine. Looking to go inside and up the corridor when can. I like it.

A few poor decisions on show, but a lot of youth involved in good moments too.

Hope we can put in 4 quarters.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Lynch has been the target twice up forward, his opponent has marked the ball 20m away from him, result 1.1

Typical clarkson game from the hawks. Dominate general play, waste it going forward, and lose comfortably in the ruck.
Wait, clarkson isn't coach any more?

You can't accuse MinerBoy of not being one of us. Chill.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Three positives:

• Lewis has been dominant
• CJ looks good
• Sicily is back

Negatives:
- midfield getting hammered. Worpel (2 touches), Nash (2 touches), Newcombe (5 touches, 2 frees against) are all clearly a step behind. At least Mitchell has been decent.

At the grounds I think its looking about as expected.

To the supporters sitting in front of me:
Momentum is a thing and often means kicking the ball in the direction we want isn't possible lmao

That was a very enjoyable quarter.

Mitch magnificent. Gunners great to see (just get those old goal kicking boots on). Sic also great to see.

Some reasonable linkage from back half to front.

 

[KermitJagger]

Apologies for bringing you down with all that negativity

Fine, that's my bad then. I apologise.

I still think Frost got a pretty line ball shove in the back, even though he definitely gave away a free after the fact.

 

[parsons nose]

They’ve got to get O’Meara back in the middle.

 

[Kuuz]

Christ almighty - the Triple M broadcast is basically the "Jason Horne Show, featuring Hawthorn v Norf"

He's been good, but its getting annoying now.

 

[MinerBoy]

No worries. Play on

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Really need O'Meara to fire. If there's a midfield he should be able to thrive against it's this one. Seems to be spending time up forward and I don't think it works.

 

[RoughysMullet]

Love to see the midfield lift here

 

[Tanami]

We are smacked in clearances

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Apologies for bringing you down with all that negativity

"Go support someone else."

Ah, the classic catchcry of the BigFooty nuffy. Expected better from Rogiebear, maybe he's a few beers deep so let's let it slide this time.

 

[Kuuz]

Man another clearance lost.

Have we won any centre clearances yet?

 

[Buzz Hawk]

Forward line and defence looking good.
Midfield, especially at the centre bounces, lacking cohesion and run.
Good signs but the midfield needs to do better.

 

[RhinotheFC]

"I PROMISE I won't talk about Horne-Francis all day"

I'm calling bullshit
