Really? I wouldn't have thought that was like him.
Yes he has struggled all year. But I just keep seeing things that make me think he is proppy.

no doubt he is carrying an injury, but keep hearig stories that he loves the ciggies and the piss. Heard em from too many people too many times for it to be crap... and apprently he has always been this way... good on him i spose - Premiership hero and norm smith medalist.
It seems we now have a thread about one player that has morphed into a thread about another player and been achieved via some vague hearsay on one part and some ill informed non specific footy commentary on the other part. Quite a feat.

Red Bull drink promotion that took place at the start of the year and the bouncers had to escort this dic*head out. Obviously has a bit of a drug issue does the former Copeland Trophy winner.

Chappy has saved his best form for the games that mean something, has been dominant over the last two weeks.
Hopefully two more games of Chapman magic to go

He's the key to our third premiership if he's attacking the ball hard, we're a real chance.
Seconded. I think this thread should be closed now, as hawks performance has been good these past few weeks and we could be discussing bigger more exciting things (preliminary final against eagles)
Thread merged. Good and/or frustrating Tom is continuing to grow as a player but its no longer appropriate to have him in a thread marked "roast".
He will play huge role for the rest of this season ,he seems to love the G. I wonder why that is? Good fortune for us its where the big games happen.
Watching Carlton last night it was obvious they would have loved to have someone of Toms height , strength and presence. He will not be going anywhere at seasons end!!

I hate this attitude. "Oh they play for Geelong and they work hard so we can't be critical."
It's confusing to me, what kind of supporter doesn't get frustrated at their own players?
As long as the discussion about the player is healthy then every "roast" thread is legit. It could be about his role, skills, ability, future, everyone here only wants the best for Geelong.
After a while the threads degenerate into a bitch fight between the 2 groups and that's when the debate is over (see closed Varcoe thread)
Maybe you weren't talking about "roast" threads in general but the pathetic insulting of players, in which case I agree. It is a forum after all, we wouldn't have much left after roast threads.

His attack on the ball and fierosity in the contest will be the difference for us in either failing or achieving the ultimate prize!!!
This also applies to Trent West and all our bigger players to impose themselves upon the opposition and lift the confidence of the small and mid sized players that win the footy through them.
But none more important than Tom.

Wow! Was carey-like in this finals series:d
Bartel and Selwood helped you guys get back into the game in the second quarter, but make no mistake, Hawkins won this grand final for Geelong. Collingwood could not stop him in the second half. He was the most important player on the ground. By the way, again the umpiring was so biased towards Collingwood. They got all the marginal decisions. Disgusting really...Congratulations!
Tom Hawkins stood up during the month of September to prove the critics wrong!!
Some big key position players take time to develop. Roger Merrett and Kevin Walsh are prime examples.
