Game Day Round 14, 2024: Hawthorn v Richmond, 4.35pm, MCG

[suedehead]

I'll go against the grain here and mention that I'm confident. Yes the Tigers will have a fair bit of emotion but we have the Rat Pack #swagger1000

Same. Don't underestimate how popular CJ is amongst the playing group and what a big deal it is for him - a kid born in an Ethiopian refugee camp - to play game 50.

Predictions:

1. Wizard and Calsher to have 7 shots between them. If more than half are goals we'll win
2. Chol to have a quiet first half and then reveal angry Chol to start the third.
3. Shai Bolton

to kick a couple of either flukey or way-too-easy goals.
4. Dusty's 300th to be mentioned more than 300 times in the coverage
5. One of Newcombe and Worpel to be very quiet today, but that's ok
6. Someone will do something reportable/suspendable. Not a rough tackle but a strike or nasty elbow. The oracle hasn't told me which team.
7. The combined scores of both teams will be 212

I'm looking forward to this one. Never know what to expect when we play Richmond.

I feel like we have a few big-game players on the list now; Nick Watson & Jack Ginnivan are going to be hated for years to come.

Weddle loves a big moment too.

Chol is starting to pick a good moment to take a big mark 15m out from goal as well

 

[cuttlefish]

I wouldn't be at all surprised if we see some physical intimidation from the Tigers today.

..over the top of Nick Vlaustin ...

one of the things that makes Dustin Martin so impressive is that he intimidates the opposition without any of the huff and puff bullshit.

I've spoken to players that have lined up on him and they all say the same. He's got awesome ability sure - but he just radiates this kind of intense mean-ness that nobody really messes with.

All the Vlaustin types that just want to do nasty shit and piss people off - we might see a bit of that.

Can't go to game due to unforeseen circumstances so have 2 tickets (1 Adult & 1 Concession Adult) , Level 1 M32 goal for any Hawker who wants. The drawback is that they are physical paper tickets. I can send scanned copies to email or if interested parties live in the Ferntree Gully area I can drop off or u can pick up. Don't worry about it being a concession ticket, nobody has ever asked me to prove it in forever. Frosty to Lynch, want him to stand in front of him facing him at all times.

C'mon 4:35pm

Tigers under Yze want to play a run and gun style. Its vastly different to the Dimma coaches Tigers we have been used to. Works in our favour IMO the Crows have a similar style of play and we smacked them. Could potentially be a bit of a goal for goal contest for a while.

Its the isolation plus the mental & physical advantage. 1 on 1 he's got you covered & is strong as an ox.

nightmare opponent especially in big games

Will we be bullied by these guys one last time?
It would be a glorious occasion to finally flip the script.

Danger game if we get ahead of ourselves. We can’t be complacent but we must run out on the ground ruthless.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Outside of that one burst Freo have looked a bit average.

 

[madhawksfan]

Must start well today! We are a better side than them but if they get their tails up early it’ll be tough. Cannot let Dusty get going and get any cheap goals out the back. When he is midfield we have to try play through his opponent because he does **** all defensively.

Huge jobs for Frost, Meek and Dimma today.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

oop wrong thread.

Ramadan playing in the 2s.

He sure is. Out of the game with an ankle

This is what I'd like to see:

Q1: Quell the expected early Richmond fire
Q2: Quieten the Tiger Army
Q3: Assert dominance
Q4: Boost percentage

Oh, and CJ to kick the final goal - it is a milestone game after all!

Guys.. is alcohol good for nerves?

 

[Buttonsticher]

Tickets have gone, cheers

Guys.. is alcohol good for nerves?

Initially yes but I found out that if you use it 24/7 for 20 years it has the opposite effect

Only in odd numbers above 16
