Walker, Army and Buckley straight in on that performance. They are lighting it up, with DVR and Boekhorst not far behind.

Graham had a huge final term, but you'd expect that versus U18s. Whiley faded.


Did you watch the game live jimmae?
If so, great effort delivering data to TC and watching the game.
If not, doesn't matter....other than seeing the players struggling as opposed to interpreting empirical data can be misleading.

Just curious, because I was rapt to see Whiley and Boekhurst with good numbers.

I wasn't there bondi, but Whiley had 13 disposals in the first three quarters. Basically had to wait for the kids to tire before he could stamp himself on the game.

My wording conveys my thoughts poorly, he faded in and out would be a better description. Both he and Graham had 8 disposals in the last quarter.


Those stats don't show 1%ers and role in the guts, nor do they tell us where he played and where he got this possessions. Ie if he got 50% of his possessions bursting into a pack against 2 and 3 opponents and escaping their clutches like the Tasmanian Devil in Bugs bunny......

I don't expect his fitness to be ready yet, but great to see him back because Insaw him play for GWS and he as quite good in the seniors.

Umm... except that match a few years ago against Essendon** where he got dumped into the ground and injured his shoulder in the opening minutes (very similar to the Thomas' injury against Richmond, actually).

We don't have bodies that match Essendon**'s, because a) our players are soft and b) our opponents players were on horse steroids.


Not sure what you're saying rob, but I'm referring to that game coz it's been proven they were on the juice when Carrazzo had both arms pinned and driven shoulder-head first into the hard surface....a bit more violent than the Thomas tackle where Thomas had his arms out claiming holding the man....and Carrazzo had a very strong body in that game.

Let's get these cheating Prix.

I've banned our family's attendance of this game. Pity because we love Melb, Mebournians and the MCG.

i feel ready for another year.. totally detoxed except for carlton...

whiley is a better prospect than anybody else to come in for ellard

graham... seen enough of him
holman?? .. blah

just so much depth of bullants players on our list


Good man....alcohol is OK if it's medicinal.

Don't worry about Ellard because he's not AFL standard Imo.

Carrazzo. Why do you think we are [REDACTED] without him? Where should he play?

What do you mean by 'plays shallow'? Honest question. I haven't come across that footy terminology before.

He hasn't been the same player since he got smashed by a Bomber under the influence in 2013.

I think he's taking away an opportunity for a young guy.

As for next week, whilst he may have the muscle to stand up to the drug thugs, the question remains if he has the pace to keep up with the game. Dons moe the ball with speed. :wink:

What I'm saying is that even the bigger bodied Carazzo got smashed by Essenscum's doped-to-the-gills-players.

The Bombers must have used like 10 taggers if they beat the premiers, yes?

We are going to get REAMED.
My Hawthorn supporting girlfriend is already getting texts from friends and colleagues who are occasional Essenscum supporters at best. And I've been sinking the boot into my CheatsC supporting acquantances for 2 years.
I'll be stocking up on both WD40 and vaseline.

If we pull of a victory........ OMG I will straight up wear Orthodox Jewish garb up Sydney Road on Saturday night.

Only if you use them in combination with 3 defensive forwards.

Got to get the mix right.

The druggies absolutely swallowed up the long balls into the f50 by the Dawks... all day long

msg to our duds... use this tactic and we'll get done by 80pts

We're too shit to execute it and they'll be waiting for us.

Cheats look fit.
You have to be to run out a game and pinch it from behind in the last 5 mins.

They close down space. They tackle and tackles stick.
Run to space and really smart how they run into the opposit space you'd expect to receive the past.

Have to admit Hawks played bruise free footy all day.
Must have something to do with the damage they inflicted on cats only 6 days ago.
