Umpires getting final instructions...
'any 50/50 decisions, go Hawks way'

'Hawks can't get scragged, pay frees to discourage Saints tackles'

'let Hawks hang onto ball forever, call ball-up if necessary'


A real Sainter will pledge allegiance to the ❤🤍🖤 and despise the Pies, the Blues, and the Injectors.

If the pictures look smokey, it's smoke, not from bush fires but from all the wood burners (and lack of breeze) in Lonnie. Cough, cough.

We need to kick 13+ goals to be a chance.

Long sleeves everywhere! It looks like a mid 1960s team, minus the big white collars.

What a shocking quarter. Why is Gresham playing?


In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

Sorry Saints but that's pathetic. Why do we love kicking behinds? Gee if Hawks kicked straight we'd already be 6 goals down. Just kick BLOODY goals - not points. Sheesh.

Why are any of them playing? The whole team can’t kick for crap.

Probably because we can't kick full stop

And the supporters. All that singing about how we’re back in town...we’ll never learn though.

Lack basic skills.
Can’t hit a target.
Can’t convert.
Can’t move the ball into forward 50 with any purpose.
No pressure.
Game plan?

This is the North game all over again. Last week was an abberation.
