Just an observation after watching the replay
Just watched the replay and I'm quietly excited about where we are at. I feel like the boys are building.
Roo is coming back to form
Kosi found something last night before he dislocated his finger
Gram starting to penetrate
Ray was good
Dempster was strong last night - took some gutsy marks
Gwilt still good
There is more to come from Montagna, Goddard, Dal Santo who have been quiet (I think) over the last few weeks.
Last night was as good as the Hawks get but we have more to come. All things heading in the right direction.

Tend to agree if we can get them right.
BJ still isn't right,looks to have lost weight? Dal and Joey were playing at 50%.
Roo is getting there,reckon he was about 80% last night...compared to 30-40% from his first two matches.
Gram see above.
Positive signs if we get it right....no hope if we don't.

Maybe BJ has given his weight to Grammy. I would suggest that neither Gram or BJ are more than one KG lighter or heavier than they have been since the start of the season and if people can tell the difference with that little loss or gain they must have great eyes.jonesy wrote:Tend to agree if we can get them right.

By the way I thought BJ was great.

What...all players are within 1kg of there preseason weight are they? You're starting to sound silly....despite your love ins with your brotherhood(the AFL umpiring department) you usually speak a bit of sense....I'll put it down to being early in the morning or somethingplugger66 wrote:Maybe BJ has given his weight to Grammy.

Well said.Finna wrote:Agree. There is heaps to like about where we're at right now.
My only concern is the costly turnovers we keep dishing up at crucial times.
Especially in the back half.
Cant believe the poor skills by foot we displayed time and again......good players doing it to.
I too walked away thinking Hawks were at their optimum....we have some in the tank if I gauge us to last year.
We are still a mid rotation short.
Goddard, Joey, Gram, Dal can all have more damaging games....not to mention Riewoldt.
“Yeah….nah””

Re: Just an observation after watching the replay
dempster is a liability. heart in mouth when the ball went near him. held on to a couple of marks. but he has no speed or agility at all.fingers wrote:Just watched the replay and I'm quietly excited about where we are at. I feel like the boys are building.

Re: Just an observation after watching the replay
Bullsh%t, have the couurage to admit that he had a good game last night. Don't feel you have to keep bagging him b/c you went over the top during the week. He's an average player who ocacsionally plays well. last night he played well. You lose credability if you choose to bag him for the sake of it.Con Gorozidis wrote:dempster is a liability. heart in mouth when the ball went near him. held on to a couple of marks. but he has no speed or agility at all.fingers wrote:Just watched the replay and I'm quietly excited about where we are at.

But then what would he know?

Re: Just an observation after watching the replay
Dempster was excellent last night and hopefully he can build on that performance. We would have lost without him.Con Gorozidis wrote:dempster is a liability. heart in mouth when the ball went near him. held on to a couple of marks. but he has no speed or agility at all.

Complete rubbish to say otherwise.

Complete lazy tripe!
Zac was good last night, but why let actual events get in the way of slagging a player.
