Hawks gameday thread

[GongSwan]

It's a long way from over yet guys

You are not allowed to touch Buddy according to those idiots that do the commentating - My God they just looooooooove Buddy. Hawthorn gets the ball and its where's Buddy?

[annew]

I just looked at the frees it is 18 12 yet the Adelaide Essendon game at 3 quarter time is only 14 10. The umpires hate the way we play and seem to penalise us for it.

Since I wasn't at the TV before, what happened in that first quarter with Hall that constitutes the boos he's getting?

That was a shocking kick by Magic.

He was involved in an incident with Ellis which left him bleeding from the lip

We've got to stick tight and close enough so we can run over the top of them

[Jeffers1984]

We need to get an open forward line. Dunno why Goodes isn't in the midfield to get us some clean clearances.

How the hell is Hall going to compete against 4 defenders? (1 being the ump)

Mickey O is stringing 2 really really bad games. Needs to lift.

Gee I wish I had your enthusiasm - we just look stagnant. I know we can play better.

They need a reason to boo him? Don' t they just do it because he's BBBH?

[10Totti10]

Can already make the assumption from this first half that:

OUT:
Grundy

IN:
Veszpremi

Malceski,Bevan,Moore all better have a good second half or their gone too.

Exactly why I think it's not over yet

Yes and I thought that the Hawthorn player ducked his head anyway. A disgrace if Hall gets sighted for that! He probably will just because he is Hall and the footy world hate him.

He ran into someone, left the guy concussed and bleeding from the mouth. Nothing in it, won't get reported.

What's Bevan done wrong?

Umps r a disgrace. Our mid is lacking class (get goodes in their), need to stick to our man, and finally don't let Grundy take a kick (seriously he is a shocking kick).

[Lucky Knickers]

We need to get first hands on the ball. If the umps are whistle happy we need to ensure that we are at the bottom of the pack. Our forward set-up isn't working and we seem to be getting lost on the big park that is the MCG. Forced to the wing and the BAZ and Mick aren't timing their leads very well right now (but improving)
I think Hall is actually going ok and should keep doing what he is doing.
Jesse White is having a good game.
Where is our forward pressure? why when Baz is going for a mark is the 3 hawks and no swans at his feet.
Rok is having a good one.
LRT is ok but seriously we are so lazy coming out of defence. The fwd pressure from the Hawks is awesome and we seem to think that LRT can make is way off the goal line, alone, with Buddy, Roughhead, Williams, et all all pressuring and the rest can stand back and have a bit of a navel gaze.
We are lucky that Hawks have so many injuries, otherwise we would be getting smashed by a superior team (ce la vie) but we now have a great chance so need to get our skates on and ugly it out for the 4 points.

What's Bevan done wrong?

Made some awful decisions, disposal pretty poor, not sticking to his man
