Game Day Round 1, 2024: Bombers v Hawks, MCG Sat 16th March

[TylerDurden]

Sic 4 kicks. What do you do??

 

[hawkman]

Midfield needs to lift. Work hard to get a goal and then they keep responding straight out of the middle

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Yep. Can't get near it.

Today has been a worst case scenario for him unfortunately, he's looked well off the pace. Might be getting a stint at Box Hill based on this showing.

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Mackenzie man i just don't know

 

[Billyc]

A midfielder should be subbed off. We are getting belted in centre clearances.

Keep the goalkickers on the field (or pointkickers as they are today)

 

[Buzz Hawk]

Finn to somebody, anybody pls.

 

[bungholes_premiers]

Just preparing myself for a loss that can easily be blamed on any number of ridiculous misses

 

[cryptor]

Is Ginnivan back on?

Came back on late.

 

[madhawksfan]

So frustrating

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

ESS kicked 5 goals straight in the 3 rd

Almost cruel

 

[Crankyhawk]

How teams let guys like Amon, Redman, Short, etc run behind for a shot on goal is unforgivable

isn't there a protected area which stops/ makes it hard for players to lock down on runner types?

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

We'll win but gee we're making it difficult

 

[Brant]

I'm confident we can kick 20 points & lose by less than 10

 

[hawk for 37]

Everyone says the Hawks are fun to watch. I’m not having any fun.

 

[Bedi]

We're needing a big lift from Lewis

 

[threesixpio]

Chol Goals

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Bad kicking is bad football. We don't deserve to be in front.

That being said, we're still in it, despite being quite poor in the middle and having almost no impact from our best players(Sic, Newk, Lewis).

The forward line just needs to start converting at a slightly better rate and we could actually win this.

+7 inside 50's
-3 clearances
+9 contested possessions
+10 intercepts

 

[daniel23]

Newcombe, Sicily and Lewis have been horrible for us.

 

[JoeHawk]

A midfielder should be subbed off. We are getting belted in centre clearances.

Keep the goalkickers on the field (or pointkickers as they are today)

That’s not the problem. It’s our goal kicking. Otherwise pretty even.

 

[threesixpio]

He is Gunner

 

[threesixpio]

I want Moore

 

[Tony3163]

Be good when Phillips is ready. Let’s Frost and Sicily play different roles.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Bad kicking is bad footy, and we can't kick a goal

Good sign though is were playing attacking footy. Might not win but it's an improvement from last yr

 

[RoughysMullet]

Where Finn - get him on Merrett pronto

 

[Judd2Sewell]

MacDonald that was pointless
