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

[madhawksfan]

Just win (and win big) baby! Sure Sam will have the boys primed and ready to dispatch the Roos.

Their defence is very average so our forwards will get plenty of opportunity to kick a score. Tassie or not, we should be putting up triple figures today if the mids give us enough supply.

Go Hawks!

Carn the Hawks!!

 

[LRobbo]

Not sure I’ve seen a worse defence on paper than Norths.
If we are ruthless it should be 80+

No injuries or suspensions and bring on September

Expect a bit of a scrap. Lots of rain through the night, and it hasn't eased off this morning

Good conditions for small forwards

They haven’t been as bad as last week for months, I reckon that was the outlier. Doesn’t matter as we should beat their best comfortably, but don’t expect 100+ points in a wet game.

Same as the Carlton and Collingwood games though, their small backs are not going to have the wheels to keep up with our small forwards - or be near disciplined enough.

 

[Sturty]

Hawks by 112

Good conditions for small forwards

Hence the inclusion of big bodied Muginus

 

[Dewyyyyy]

Watto for 8

 

[Mopar Jason]

Hawks in a canter, Wizard to kick a handful, finals footy here we come!!!

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

Still mad the time changed

 

[Blackhawk42]

Just bank it in a relatively comfortable fashion please. Ideally by enough that Carlton have no chance of making up the percentage differential.

HAWKS BY PLENTY!!!!

Bleakest game day down here in seasons. Temper those blowout margins.

Would be a gamble playing Scrimshaw with a hand injury in these conditions.

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

Listen, I reckon scrim will be fine. I nearly chopped my ring finger clean off on Wednesday night and will have stitches out this Wednesday. It’s tender at the moment (the bits I can feel anyway) but with tape and some gloves I’m going game fishing today. If the docs are ok with him playing, so am I.

It’s Game day!

 

[Cleavy]

get in front, stay in front, in case something goes **** up with the weather, electricity, sirens, lights etc

 

[moginie]

Write the next chapter. Back in the finals where we belong.

 

[JRH]

I am as pessimistic as they come but I reckon the worst that could happen today is Finn has a blinder and makes finals selection an even longer conversation. Go Hawks! Obliterate them!

 

[StillAtLarge]

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
