Re: game thread Hawks
Our small forwards are invisible today.
Longer again getting little of the ball. He gets his hands to many marking contests but cannot drag them in.
Team winning plenty of ball but very wasteful with it.

Longer is currently a joke.
Said it for 24 months, does not get the ball!
Hickey has not had the opportunity to play his natural position, and has been crucified accordingly. Surely it's merely to increase Longers trade value.

Re: game thread Hawks
350 possessions to 305 in our favour
Just shows you how efficient they are
Turnovers again have killed us and its amazing how much space they find
At least we are going to keep it under 100 pt margin

Geary is clearly in our best today, can you take me through all the backwards kicks, easy to stick the boot in isn't it when losing by 10... go awaymagnifisaint wrote:They all do. Geary, Delaney the otherscitywest wrote:Farren Ray s***s me. He more often than not kicks backwards.

come on here speaking like that about a St Kilda player is not acceptable, go away
he is wearing our colours and deserves respect not language like that

Re: game thread Hawks
A team containing all of Geary, Ray, Dempster, Delaney, Shenton and Longer is always going to be killed by turnovers. You can carry 2-3 guys who can't kick if their defensive ability/leadership warrants it, but we've just got way too many in the team today.Devilhead wrote:350 possessions to 305 in our favour

Re: game thread Hawks
Seb Ross may well be a good footballer, but today he looks a million miles off being an AFL player. Missed Dunstan today.

Re: game thread Hawks
Interesting stats??? So the umps have only seen 2 frees a qtr against the Hawks? Those free stats must be wrong. Other stats look good. We are getting our hands on it just some bad decisions and skills etc. that will come.

Re: game thread Hawks
I reckon Longer has done a reasonable job this year, but it's time for Hickey to be given a chance at his position, ruck. His confidence looks shot at the moment playing as a forward.Freebird wrote:As bad as longer is..hickey is worsesaintsRrising wrote:Our small forwards are invisible today.

Re: game thread Hawks
They tried hard but got smashed out of the centre. Which means Hawthorn had bigger bodies. Umpiring was very poor.
