Lukoscious (Not really cutting it)

O.Allen/Darling (2 players not even making one effective forward)
Calsher Dear (6 gamer)
Petty (Going so well that he maybe traded)

Lukoscios not cutting it? Joking surely?!

Allen is injured- otherwise a star - Darling is in the Membrey category in that he’s at the end of a very good career

Calsher Dear is very impressive- they’ve found one
Mitch Lewis is injured

Melbourne struggle forward of Centre
Forgot Van Rooyen

Two Prong attack implies scoring power to attack a spot in the 8.

BTW - Yes you are right all the players you mentioned send shivers through the opposition.

Also - I think Dear will be fantastic - and you kind of prove my point - Hawks are NOW becoming dangerous due to a 2nd marking target.

One of the better posts onto his site in a long time.

Cammaniti's development could be massive for us.

You honestly think Hawthorn is better now due to Calsher Dear? He’s been great - possibly because Hawthorn have been great.
I’d say Will Day has had a little more to do with it
And their small forwards Moore and Ginnivan

You also can’t say Lukosios has had no impact 12 goals from 12 games averaging 15ppg

Then say Calsher dear is responsible for Hawthorns resurgence
6 goals from 5 games averaging 7ppg

LOL - I didn't even bring Dear into it - you did - I said he WILL be good and may have something to do with their resurgence.

Two prongs conjures up a sharp focussed impression. I am now accustomed to our shotgun approach. Haven't got the loads right, sights are wonky sometimes shoot our own feet but it sure makes opposition backs confused at times "what is this team trying to do?"

There has been two power forwards since as long as footy has been played

Lockett and Loewe
Brereton and Dunstall
Carey and Longmire
Kennedy and Darling
Brown and Lynch

We have 24yo 202cm stick insect
And 20yo 196cm under developed Caminiti
Membrey is probably done

OFFS - This was my point regarding those competing and those not - but you wanted to argue about Dear!!!!!!!

As I said - It was the Blurst of Times!

Two Big good forwards are nice.

Pies won a flag without one true big forward.

We need to improve our midfield, that is the key.

A goal a game is fine. If your aim is to restrict your opposition to under 50 points then you only need your 7-8 rotating forwards to kick a goal each and you win. Simple!

I don't know - you are banging your head against the keyboard and hoping it makes sense

For Clarity
You introduced Dear and said Hawks had found one here
I agreed saying he will be fantastic - and said that having a 2nd marking target may be a reason for Hawthorns revival in the past 6 weeks.
You then seem to think that I am claiming Dear is the next Chief

Do you have a date with his mum tonight or maybe Will Day's mum???

Again - I repeat "It was the Blurst of Days"

Or maybe you are cantankerous because you a lonely and boring - and have chosen the personality of a man yelling into the wind.
