We'd have 23 flags by now if that shit went through...

So when Hawthorn relocate to Tassie, will that be the end of a dynasty and the start of a new one, or will be the same dynasty just a change of name and location ?
And just as usual you don't even have the balls to answer his question. Good for you, donkey.So you are saying the Hawks are a dynasty.
I guess any club that can win 11 Premierships and gunning for their 12th in a touch over 50 is awesome.
At last a Handbagger with the balls to admit it.
Dude put a bandage on it FFS.And as just usual you don't even have the balls to answer his question. Good for you, donkey.

At least try to stem the bleeding.

Perhaps one of your new found buds can come and tag you out of this quandary you've now found yourself in..?
The Hawks fans were very confident. Beer-in-hand. Nine-and-zip. Happy to be playing in the footy colony the club has acquired. Plant a flag in Tasmania and call it yours. Happy to see Jeff Kennett sending Old Melbourne off to the Gold Coast, in an attempt to secure the Yarraside Range Rover set. I can't remember whether it was Lenin or Doug Hawkins who wrote that footy imperialism was the highest stage of capitalism.
And here is your answer.So when Hawthorn relocate to Tassie, will that be the end of a dynasty and the start of a new one, or will be the same dynasty just a change of name and location ?
hmmmm, are you Pauline Hanson?Easily answered.
Hawthorn are a far bigger club than Geelong, in short we dwarf you.
Taking one of the big clubs out of Victoria is stupid. Especially one that has 11/54'd.
Hawthorn is like the British Empire circa 19th century, spreading the good word to the dominions (Tasmania, NZ, NT etc.).
So this was his question.
And here is your answer.
hmmmm, are you Pauline Hanson?
And once again here is another one of your beating about the bush answers -So when Hawthorn relocate to Tassie, will that be the end of a dynasty and the start of a new one, or will be the same dynasty just a change of name and location ?
No reply necessary this time man, you've already had multiple goes at it and failed.Not exactly. As above, Hawthorn have planted their stake in Tasmania and have provided locals with access to the wide, world of football. Eventually Tasmania will stand on its own two feet (or in this case, Norff will relocate to Tasmania in 2017) but when that time comes, the locals will be thankful that Hawthorn gave them access to 15 years of live football content. That and the fact that a large share of our fan base filled the coffers of the Launceston businesses
Simple concept really
Doesn't explain why Hawthorn are a much bigger club (and for that matter far more successful club) than the Geelong Cats though, perhaps you can elaborate on that?
Will more than 20000 Geelong Cats bother with Friday Night?
Oh my.
Lets try it once again, this was his question -

This scattergun post is exactly why I clearly stated 'No reply necessary'…You clearly do not understand colonisation Chefy you knob. The concept works like this. You send a few forward parties somewhere, they load their ships with riches, said riches get delivered back to the mothership to be stored in big shiny cups. To appease the colonies said shiny cups are won regularly and toured though the colonies to garner their continued support.
Now as I am sure you are aware, Great Britain never relocated. Neither will Hawthorn.
Great Britain also won when it mattered. So will Hawthorn

1. Hawthorn will end up like other "empire builders" - run-of-the-mill countries desperate for relevance (England) whilst the colonies they created thrive (Australia, India).
2. The greatest "colony" is Sydney. unlike Tassie, which is AFL-friendly, the Sydney colony was built amongst feral inhabitants (all major sporting codes) and had to fight to survive. Now, Sydney is the jewel in teh AFL Empire's crown.
3. Hawks fans are like the Poms - trying to talk tough, harking back to ancient times when they were relevant, whining about what should be, jealous of the powers (Sydney) that are flourishing.
by next year, Sydney may well have 5 flags in 10 years - including the Hawks' Bradbury's flag of 2013.
That is the sign of a true champion club. And, unlike Hawthorn (2009), we don't capitulate after a flag. The culture and pride in our club is too strong - that's why Buddy left for greener pastures.
Imagine - a Whoreks fan misses the point.The only bit you got right is Sydney is full of feral inhabitants. All is not lost for you grasshopper.

Now, why don't you sit back, look around - I'm sure you'll find something to whine about.
Crows 97/98. /thread.I believe that IF we win the whole thing this years there's grounds for calling this the best ever premiership.
Reasons,
The near impossibility of winning back to back in this equalisation period of football.
The catastrophic injury list we had mid season.
We had the following players out for extended periods at the same time.
Lake, Gibson, Mitchell, Rioli, Sewell.
I said to my bro about round 11, that if we could somehow scrape our way into the top 4, we might may be a chance. He told me to stop snorting shit.
So, can the mighties do what even the Norton bro's said couldn't be done?
Stay tuned punters, as this will one day be a telemovie about "defying the odds". I think Jason Statham is odds on to play yours truly.
It makes Carl Spackler's Cinderella story look quite lame doesn't it

This morning, about 3,000 Swans supporters attended a presentation at Melbourne's Lakeside Oval, considered to be the spiritual home of the Swans.
Flanked by a giant crowd of between 2000 and 4000 fans, a "dusty" looking group of Swans players held aloft the AFL premiership cup in the harbour city for the second time in eight years
Earlier, after the team was briefly presented to a crowd of more than 22,000, Franklin lingered on stage, clapping his hands above his head in what seemed a pointed farewell gesture.
If they win this year, it will be the Tassie Hawks dynasty, which is seperate from the Hawthorn Hawks of the 80s. Totally different team.So when Hawthorn relocate to Tassie, will that be the end of a dynasty and the start of a new one, or will be the same dynasty just a change of name and location ?
