Game Day Round 24, 2024: Hawks v North, 12:30pm UTAS

[grumbleguts]

I'm a bit like Denis Denuto about this one, 'I'm shitting myself'. We'll get the job done but I've been feeling very toey all week

Relax, enjoy, we are winning this by 100+

 

[Flukey!]

Shame it's in Tassie in shitty conditions otherwise we would really smack them.
40+ would be a good result today.

 

[grumbleguts]

It will likely be a slog and their midfield in particular has the capability to challenge us for four quarters. Gonna be a tough watch

Is this challenging midfield from a Ouija board? Is their presence felt in the room with us today?

 

[GinniAndTonic]

If we score first in this game we’ll temporarily be in 4th spot.

 

[VandoHawk]

North have a decent midfield but the lack of Sheezel really hurts their spark and scoring. He’s that good.

If we come to play this will be 60+ in blustery conditions.

One more push before a well earnt break Hawks! I want this young group to play finals badly.

 

[Howe Amazing]

I know it was at the G but we scored well in crap conditions that night so why not today. Our handball game important to ball movement

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

Nice touch

 

[RobHawk]

Hence the inclusion of big bodied Muginus

Just call him Finn mate

If we score first in this game we’ll temporarily be in 4th spot.

Now that we’re the early game, if we win we’ll hold 4th until any of Geelong, Brisbane or Dogs win.

Might only be temporary but it’s still a cool achievement to reach that spot at all after 0-5. Not that top 8 itself isn’t.

 

[TylerDurden]

Looks like Meek is playing.
Scrim the only potential late change.

I want them to play finals well.

Nice touch

Just went back and revisited that game.

There was a point in the first quarter when North banged on four goals in a row to lead by twelve points. And we know how the game panned out.

Might be something to remember if things don't go exactly the way people would like early on.

Hawks by plenty.

[cyrilicious]

[unitedhawk]

Still mad the time changed

It just means we'll qualify for finals earlier than anyone could possibly have forecast, even as recently as 24 hours ago!

Fox Footy and Kayo

 

[Billyc]

This is an Elimination final against garbage opposition, Smash them and have a week off before another elimination final against a much better opponent

 

[ahhhhhh]

My mate is on a flight that couldn't land and got sent back to Melbourne. Hopefully no match day officials were on board.

A spelling joke that has more letters misspelled than the original. I get a feeling it’s going to be that sort of a day! Hawks by plenty

wtf, what a shitty thing to happen

 

[spudmaster]

What an ungodly hour to have to awaken on a weekend.

First wet game in Tassie for quite a few years. UTAS has the best surface in the league with great drainage. Won’t be too bad.
