Hawks 1st round pick watch

[Darth Vader]

Great result: Hawks lose and Buckley extends time as Collingwood coach.

[ace]

Tom Mitchell 50 disposals, 22 kicks, 28 handballs, 68% disposal efficiency, 308 metres gains (6.16m per disposal) time on ground 90%
Scott Pendelbury 36 disposals, 20 kicks, 16 handballs, 72.2% disposal efficiency, 691 metres gained, (19.19m per disposal) time on ground 80%
Pendelbury 3.1x metres gained per disposal. 2.2x more metres for the game.
100 disposals and Mitchell would not be as damaging as Pendelbury.

As Buckley said "we thought about tagging him" but "he wasn't hurting us".
Treloar was seen mocking Mitchell for racking up the stats.
Hope that is the best Hawthorn has.
It will keep where we want them.

100 disposals and Mitchell would not be as damaging as Pendelbury.

Also needs to be adjusted for turnovers which makes Mitchell even less effective.

If Mitchell could win 50 disposal for us I would take him. Problem is not Mitchell, but the rest of the midfield and team.

To really work out his value from a meter perspective you need to look at the meters gained by the possession after his but only when he wins a disputed/contested possession. A great pick up for the Hawks.

[Fidelis]

Oh dear. Hawks off to a flyer against Sydney. 5 goals to 1 in first quarter.

Similar to last week so let's hope Sydney can get back

[WellardSaint]

Not sure why everyone is excited about how low Hawks can stay on the ladder.

Someone picked in the Top 10 might end up being a dud. We can't control how Hawks play,
but the club can control who they pick.
Not another Spencer White, please.

Surely swans will smash them

Well the possibility of maybe gaining Pick 2 excites me....

[longtimesaint]

Swans don't look the same side as last week.

That's exactly the reason there's interest: The chances of picking a gun at 2 is far far higher than picking one at 10.

Though there's every possibility we'll trade both of our first rounders for a player and in that sense it might be largely irrelevant which first rounder it is..

Wish we played this Sydney last week

[saintsRrising]

Wish we played this Sydney last week

Yes amazing year in how much the form of most teams including the Saints can vary.

[dragit]

I'm torn here… I absolutely want both of these sides to lose.

[suss]

Was that Heeney or Mills who couldn't get a score from 40 metres out? Shizen ...

[saintsRrising]

Bloody Swans...have shafted us two weeks in a row


Though the upside is that the Swans will probably not be competing with us for a place in the 8 now.

[Impatient Sainter]

Wish we played this Sydney last week

Yep completely different sides - Hawthorn chip passing possession game wore them down. Its a strange old year of footy...

[SAAD]

plus sydney only had the 20 players for majority of game while we lost newnes in 1st qtr last week

[Joe Bloggs]

:mrgreen

Draw would have been good

[skeptic]

Geeez, scores level, a few minutes left, a Sydney player on 45degree angle, 40m runs into open goal and kicks it 30m to free Hawk defender... they in turn go coast to coast and goal

[desertsaint]

Hawks always beat them in sydney - have the perfect type of game against them - clean, smart, patient kicking around the ground. possession football - something we are terrible at.

[SydneySainter]

The Swans newly found "top four" form really paid off for us tonight...

[remboy]

The Swans newly found "top four" form really paid off for us tonight...

Won't matter in the long run. The Hawks have a tough run home. Will be lucky to win more than 7.
