Autopsy Round 13, 2024 : Hawks slay the Giants

[TylerDurden]

Players don’t bother saying they touched it these days if they didn’t actually touch it as the review will show they didn’t, Scrimmers looked adamant that he did

Gut feel says he did

Greene and GWS team mates seemed sure it was touched.

Wouldn't trade Day or Weddle for just about anyone, both still (weds it's hard to believe is in his second year) have huge ceilings.

Earlier this year Dermie said it would be a shame to see us finish too far up the ladder as we still need a lot more top talent. I reckon the bones are already there.

 

[matey]

Enjoyed watching the coaches post match pressers. Gotta love Mitch, “we are building a side to play finals and win premierships ….. far from the finished product”!

Kingsley very respectful on our defensive play/pressure, looking at the last six week block Hawks would probably be 2nd or 3rd on the ladder, mentioned Weddle’s influence a couple of times impact on Hawks transition ……. we are building nicely fellow Hawkers!

 

[TassieGrown]

Not sure the boys will fly out tonight, fog was something else driving home

 

[satan1]

Impey going a bit unsung in this thread currently.
Defensively had some moments early that he'd want back, but recovered brilliantly and put his body on the line repeatedly!
Could not want more success for a player than I do for Impey.

Set the tone a few times going back with the flight and could have earnt a free, obviously hurt and just got on with it. Made them earn everything and kicked with polish.

This team is box office.. so many exciting talents the public are just taking notice of…
Weddle, Dear, McDonald, CJ, Chol are just getting started!! Add Smith and get Lewis firing… Wizard ready to slot back in and ahhh McCabe, you’ve done it again…. and we’ve got the talent to explode next year..
It’s good to be back!

Chol is my favourite player to watch at the moment. That massive mark was like when he dominated Box Hill in the finals, that gave us the confidence to target him in the first place. Seems to be growing in belief in himself as well and the influence he can have.

 

[rdhopkins2]

At Sporties Hotel and there are plenty of Hawkers here!

Captain of my plane here is a Hawks supporter. One of 3 I believe to land in LST today. #AnythingIsPossibleForAHawk

Chol is my favourite player to watch at the moment. That massive mark was like when he dominate Box Hill in the finals, that gave us the confidence to target him in the first place. Seems to be growing in belief in himself as well and the influence he can have.

Plus that play where he beat two giants and hand balled off. Including the multi million dollar man.
Brilliant.

 

[JoeHawk]

Weddle is going to be a match winner for us

Weddle can be anything. Wait till he hits 50-100 games. Such a tall mobile player and will be very hard to stop. Has a booming kick and can take big marks. Exciting times ahead.

 

[clarkoscluster]

Don’t get why they just keep it going and the next game be given its own dedicated program. Doesn’t make any sense.

Because the games are all shown on the one channel - Fox Footy.

 

[extractasam]

What was going on with the camera work in this game? Don't think i've ever seen so many set shots taken without vision of the sticks

There was so many times the ball wasn’t even in the shot too and late to transition, was wondering if anyone else thought the same at the time

 

[Hawk Vision]

Geez Dear is special…doing what he is doing at 18 for a tall is a special talent…we got another one

 

[Dinsdale]

Outstanding win, has brightened up a dark, dark week for me.

Just need Swans to win for my mate who passed on Monday.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Still shaking my head in disbelief - love this team.

If we win next week we've matched the number of wins we had for all of last season.

- as far as being the best defender in the league goes- he played on gunston for a lot of the game and I think Gunners schooled him a bit on taking him out of the play and also kicking 3 goals himself.

Outstanding win, has brightened up a dark, dark week for me.

Just need Swans to win for my mate who passed on Monday.

Don't often (ever) support the Swans, but this week I'll make an exception.
Condolences, Dinsdale.

 

[SA HAWK]

Feels a bit like 2006 this season.

Exciting times ahead.

Sorry to hear that mate, glad the boys came through for you.

 

[Buckemenico]

Weddle will be like Koutoufedis. Day a massive leader.

No need to get more draft picks. Making it a destination club and get high end talent that way. All the top clubs have players from other sides who transfer across, ie. where would Adelaide be without Dawson, Rankine? Melbourne without May/Lever? Geelong without Cameron & all the others. If we can snag one or two high end players, sky is the limit.

 

[Hawked Wings]

Seriously can’t be more proud of this group from the start of year. Down by 19 at half time from my opinion a too 4 team, come back and win. Continuing to amaze me. Players eating to change teams take notice, we ****ing coming

 

[Hawked Wings]

Ps was pretty disappointed with reeves in the first half but for him to not come back and Weddle and Nash what they did….pls

 

[davoss]

Easily the most important win of the Mitchell era. A comeback win against a top 4 challenger with the season still alive, this will give the boys so much belief

 

[hardway]

Every week the growth is more evident. This team is going place’s
