Yep Hawks now get the easy side of the Draw with Swans in it, they don’t even have to play Cats or Scum which would be a bigger challange.
So, Hawks likely opponent in the Prelim to be the Crows.
Hawthorn will probably make the GF.
Only silver lining there is if they lose it vs the Lions, Merret would have made a difference and they can suck on that
Crows at the MCG. Will be a bloodbath.
Watson’s ワトソン tattoo is incredibly embarrassing. The equivalent of just getting “Watoson” tattooed on your arm in Roman characters.
If Watson was Peter Wright he’d be out for the rest of the year.
Freo way to go
We are the freo chokers
Hawthorn win flags, bottom out and win flags again whilst we ■■■■ and moan in continued mediocrity.
Over half a century it’s been them, Geelong, collingwood.
Yet we refuse to learn their lessons and think we are better than taking what they did and building on it. Nope we can do it totally different, we can do it the essendon way
So you’re saying there’s a chance?
In those years the losing team top 4 team on the other side of the draw (Swans) was not gimped like this year
does not matter which team Hawthorn plays in prelim, Hawthorn will cruise to GF
Tonight Freo smelt like the bin outside the Lobster Cave after a garbage collection strike.
its not happening this time..
even if they win SF some how they will lose in Prelim in Gabba ..
And the first pick from Hawks is coming to us, yayyyy
, an GF team which gets Zack and King… afl is so equal, its great. But no we cant get any compo, dont be stupid, have some extra rookie spots.
Yer, I’d expect the Hawks to have the advantage.
Crows will still be dangerous as playing the extra game might be beneficial for them.
Obviously I’m forecasting a number of results, but I think they’ll just slide over the Dogs, then take Swans comfortably.
They may be a different proposition coming into a Prelim with some confidence.
