Game Day Round 22, 2024: Carlton v Hawthorn, Sun 11 August, 1.10pm AEST @ MCG

[Leather Poisoning]

Some great individual performances so far

• Ginni's been hiding those guns during the winter. He's looking strong and playing more like that. Decision making improved a lot that quarter
• Watson really good in traffic through the corridor
• Dear - everything he touches, it just happens around him
• Chol, aside from a bad miss - taking some marks and it just makes Weitering have to play defensively
• Newcombe and Nash playing so strong in the air and on the ground

Scrimmers pinpoint accurate torp to Gunston just changed the game.

Great first half.

I was at Manuka Oval a week ago though, so no chicken counting is going on.

 

[VandoHawk]

Scrimshaw with the 80 metre torpedo that hit a target was incredible.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

We aren’t in position to take the foot off the gas. Get the % up and belt the day lights out of them. They look out on their feet completely, chasing tail all day isn’t easy

There will be no let up. If the margin gets close it would be because Carlton have lifted their game

 

[Bedi]

This has been one of the best commentaries I’ve ever listened too.

i gave it a try but could hear bloody Dave Hughes in the background, so have they fixed the sound?

Play of the season. Dear could be a legitimate star of the comp.

Was just elite, to hit it with such accuracy

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Not getting carried away after last week.

It'll be tight. Real tight

Can't help but feel nervous. We've been susceptible to giving up leads. Hope more lessons learnt from last week and we play full 4 quarters

Yep fixed it halfway through first quarter so is listenable now

Yeah it’s been fixed.

 

[Billyc]

Such a vital second half here. A win is critical but upping our percentage and chipping away at Carlton’s is also very important. They are the most vulnerable top 8 side

How I feel. If we can put the guy down and murder them, I'll feel we are learning.

I just have a horrible feeling

i'm shitting myself

 

[VandoHawk]

Third quarter will be important to secure the win. Carlton will throw everything at us, and we want to extend that lead to around 40 rather than make it close.

If we do that then percentage becomes the focus.

 

[Sixpence]

Great first half.

I was at Manuka Oval a week ago though, so no chicken counting is going on.

That's fair, but I think GWS looked pretty good in large parts of that game, despite us being up. Today, Carlton don't look nearly as good as they did. But yeh, need to keep going hard here.

I can't see Carlton getting back in it. They could get on us in the midfield and tall forwards but we are on top of them everywhere at the moment.

But more importantly, they have 3 players injured and out of the game, no sub boost coming for them. They were really struggling to run with us already. Lots of head wobble going on and us out numbering them.

 

[Hawker1167]

What a great quarter and with them 3 down couldn’t possibly be run over again could we.

Exciting times for the Hawks but we have to just keep going with this one

 

[kirbatron]

keep it going boys!

sen fanatic is the best thing I've ever heard

Need 33 more point lead to catch their % and take 8th spot!

Yes - good to go now

 

[Bedi]

am hoping a replay will be available
