Game Day Round 4, 2023: Geelong v Hawthorn, MCG 3:20pm Easter Monday

[Mercy Seat]

Any chance we can kick 10 junk time goals?

Im just barracking for an inside 50 at this point.

 

[Hodginator]

Simple errors like that drop from Amon really hurt.

 

[VandoHawk]

Reckon we’ve fumbled it more in this second half than the entire North Melbourne game

 

[RoughysMullet]

Well that’s it- time to get the early train home

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Reeves offers absolutely nothing other than the odd good tap. Lynch has to be in over him next week.

Don't say this too loudly or you'll be hounded

 

[Sturty]

Ned Long I hope comes in for Finn.

If he was playing today, even if it went against him, I’m certain he would at least clock someone

The boy is aggressive and angry - I love it

Has to play next week.
Finn is terrible.

 

[Baz_hawk]

Mission Accomplished?

Definitely look like they got comfortable and expected more of the same

 

[Sleutheren]

Why wasn't that holding the ball then?

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Just terrible. A true reflection of the reigning premiers vs a bottom two side.

 

[Max Powers]

Cats player drops the ball. Geelong free

 

[The A Team Van]

They don't pat the Cat dropping the ball but they pay the throw against Nash.

campaigners

 

[VandoHawk]

Watching Nash just jog there is infuriating

 

[Simon Crawshay]

WT actual F was that?

 

[Dewnior]

Wingard can f&$k off with that shit

 

[Hodginator]

WTF Wingard

 

[LunchboxLegend]

Wingard you *******

 

[Wingnut19]

Get Finn out, if he's not tagging he's useless.
Lynch in next week to pls

Along with swinging a Key defender Fwd to invest in our Pick 6 in the seniors, it’s the most glaring obvious change. Reeves , Finn out. I know people love Harry on here but he is the definition of a plodder. There is no upside to his game at all. Another I see no point giving games to. Bring Stephens in as well. 9 touches ain’t gonna cut it Nash.

 

[VandoHawk]

Umpires we’re ****ing ourselves we don’t need you giving us poor decisions

 

[Dixie Flatline]

They won a flag 3 games ago .
We are fielding pretty much the youngest and inexperienced side in the comp .
Its not totally unexpected that it may happen .

Its a tough learn but this will happen .
Lets see if we can square up at least this 1/4

Only thing worse for a Jets fan than agreeing with a Bills supporter would be agreeing with a Patriots fan. But this is pretty spot on the money.

I was only able to catch bits and pieces of the third quarter, due to having to get dinner ready and such like. But I do think momentum started to shift away from Hawthorn towards Geelong in the midfield when Nash had the head clash with Bews. It took out a big body from the Hawthorn midfield and it coincided with the Cats winning clearances. It's on the coaches to try to switch around the centre square personnel to try to compensate and get Hawthorn back into the contest at the coal face, but I think it's a big factor in that third quarter that Geelong were so easily able to dominate the midfield. Hard to defend when the ball is coming down to the opponent's forward line at a million miles an hour and then is locked in at will by the opponent.

 

[Billyc]

Just like us to win this quarter. First half was good. Third quarter an absolutel disaster. Win the fourth and we can take something from the game, while also having a lot to learn from what happened in the third

 

[SA HAWK]

Simple errors like that drop from Amon really hurt.

Seems like they have made us pay every time 2nd half.

 

[Stranglers]

Geez I know it isn't changing the result but can the umpires be SLIGHTLY consistent?

 

[mustang]

Our shit percentage is getting smashed by more.

Must have missed his head knock. It's a wonder he's even playing given that his opponent got subbed out from the same incident. I'd be cutting Nash some slack.

 

[Mrzohs]

Hawkins on track to match his marks over the first 3 weeks. (9) vs 10
