Autopsy Round 13 2024 – Hawthorn vs GWS Giants, Saturday June 8, 1.45pm AEST, UTAS Stadium

[Giant Strides]

Off the bye, in Tasmania, carrying a lot of injuries in the squad. Hopefully the players who run onto UTAS are primed for a 100% effort - we cannot afford to drop a game to the Hawks. The midfield battle is going to be key, including getting on top of Will Day. Tom Green

& Keiren Briggs need to have big games.


Let's go GIANTS!

 

[MelbourneGWS]

We ideally need to come off our bye with a win. Last year we were awesome after the bye, winning 5 games in a row. Fingers crossed that Kingsley and his coaching staff used the bye to fine tune the team, address our weaknesses and inspire our players. Let’s Go Giants!

Big game but I have high hopes. Hawks might seem like they're red hot at the moment, but their last 3 wins were against St Kilda, Brisbane and Adelaide. It's time for them to come up against some real competition.

Our forward line is at full strength so we should be very dangerous when we can get the ball into attack.

As others have said the midfield battle is where the game is really going to be won or lost. We're missing a couple of good players in Cogs and Jelly but I actually have a lot of faith in our replacements. If players like Callaghan and Peatling bring their pace and energy we should compete really well. I'll be very interested to see who lines up on the wings.

Our defence is full of good players but very tall. This could work in our favour or it could really work against us. Going to have be wary of players like Moore and Ginnivan.

I think it's going to be a really exciting game to watch, looking forward to it.

 

[Fletched]

Definitely a danger game for the giants today need to be switched on

I'm in Sydney this week reping the giants scarf, one thing I am noticing is there are bugger all scarfs and beanies caps etc even of the local nrl teams compared to teams in victoria

 

[Battlepants]

Also random question... why are we still in round 10?

Hope the team's not reading this, they might not show up for another 3 weeks.

 

[Giant YoYo]

Hope we win but feeling like it's a bit of a coin toss for me.

Happy to see a couple of Giants fans up and about in the West today on the T1 train line.

Must all be going to Giants watch party events like yours truly.

Heartening to see a couple people donning a Giants scarf or beanie at the Matilda's soccer game at Accor stadium last Monday too.

Feeling cautiously optimistic.
Coaches and players have had the chance to reset and get a good look at the Hawks.
A few guys playing for their place in the team.
A good opportunity for everyone to perform at a higher level.

Kingsley also just said that Mumford is also caught up in Hobart and is driving to Launceston…Game is also on the main 7 channel

Dermott and Kelli....

[Giant Gutsache]

Plus Dwayne for the ear-bleed trifecta.

 

[Section226]

Bedford has one handball already.

Things are looking up.

Plus Dwayne for the ear-bleed trifecta.

TV sound off and MMM radio on with Brayshaw and Billy

 

[Section226]

On Hogan's first visit to the interchange, change his bluddy boots to the long stops.

 

[Giant Strides]

Harvey to 'Halloran

 

[MelbourneGWS]

And X marks the spot! After all the Hawthorn entries, we are the first to score a goal!

 

[Section226]

Judging by Hogan's and Gunstan's kick, there's a decent breeze across the ground towards the main camera side.

 

[Battlepants]

Fumbling everything at the moment.

 

[Colonial]

We seem to be making lots of silly mistakes, umps hating us as usual

 

[Land of the Giants]

Hmmm...what do we make of that?

 

[MelbourneGWS]

Jesse!! And that’s why he’s going to win the Coleman this year…

 

[Section226]

Too much f*rt-ar*ing around in the F50.

 

[Colonial]

For once a call went our way, fair call they took advantage then Fluffed it.

Not playing great, thankfully Hawks kicking for goal has been poor.
