Game Day Round 17, 2023 : Giants v Hawks, 4.35pm , Giants Stadium

[Strapping Young Lad]

It’s Game day!

 

[rdhopkins2]

I hear a big, big sound from the west of Sydney town. The sound of a big upset.

 

[grumbleguts]

Again, there must be a test match on for the game day thread to be up this early.

I'm a few hours behind so it works for me! I think GWS will get up, but just want to see some effort, hard tackling and pressure in the f50.

Blowing a gale in Sydney this morning, and predicted to get stronger this arvo.

 

[The hands of stone]

Giants are in good form , we are off the boil .
Happy for a comptitive effort in this one and get some confidence back for the last part of the season .

 

[Mojo]

Expectations aren't too high after the last two weeks. I'm just hoping for some effort.

 

[Kil Phearns]

Will be out all day for the Super Netball GF (lunch into the pre-game and then the game in the evening). Will just catch scores on the relevant app and HFC twitter.

 

[killerspud]

Back from Koh Samui. Bloody hot but it's a beautiful place.

Looking forward to a good showing from us today

 

[burger09]

This could be tough viewing. Hopefully they'll surprise us.

 

[TylerDurden]

Happy if we get within 5 goals.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Effort please.

Expecting a 6-8 goal defeat but hopefully it's as competitive as our last game against them.

 

[madhawksfan]

Giants coming off a good win albeit in Darwin which could be energy sapping. Not expecting a win given our poor history at that poor excuse for an AFL ground but maybe we are due for one of good games after a couple of ordinary ones.

Hoping that DGB can provide a genuine target, and along with Greene, take some heat off Mitch. Need good pressure from the smalls and midfield.

Finn to Kelly and Dimma to Toby. Praying that we don’t see one of their lesser lights kick a bag.

 

[H00t]

3 teams have never won at Giants Stadium. We’ve had the most attempts though with 7. Suns have had 6 and Freo 3.

Time to get the hoodoo off our back and grab a win.

 

[Tall Tales and True]

No Sis is killing us ... still, let's bounce back with a really competitive effort.

(Hope DGB has a ripper!)

Effort please.

Expecting a 6-8 goal defeat but hopefully it's as competitive as our last game against them.

2 goal per quartet loss is fine.
Getting blown out in 10 mins and them cruising is not

 

[hawkers10]

Effort please.

Expecting a 6-8 goal defeat but hopefully it's as competitive as our last game against them.

all I want is a 4 quarter effort even if we lose by 10 or under I won't be pissed at all. But tbh I can really see this game being a smashing. I reckon they will only keep us to 5/6 goals for the game, and then its all on us to defend good otherwise they will kick 15 on our head

Probably been the most important player in our history (at least since our first GF - Col Austin notwithstanding) I mean in terms of a single player having such an influence on the match result.

This season with Sicily our record is:
P12:W4:L8, 80.6%

Without him:
P3:W0:L3, 50%

Over the last 6 matches:
With Sic:
P3:W3:L0, 185.3%

Without him:
P3:W0:L3, 50%

 

[Buzz Hawk]

I think we are due for a good performance, so we might surprise a few people today.

 

[Newmo89]

Frenchie, Long and Meek to line up for Box Hill this afternoon.
No carry-over emergency for the seniors game.
