Not #39 - Heath Hocking

The team definitely is better when Hocking is in it !

A genuine heart and soul player. A personal fave.

Works hard, one of first picked every week.

I love that he backs himself to take the shot.

If he gets it twenty metres out in congestion he’ll have a friggin’ ping, not handball to a stationary player two metres away.

I don’t love that he only kicked 5-7 this year so much.

If everyone set to their task like this bloke Essendon would be a lot harder.

Still very underrated by most here. Would like to see him get the respect he deserves and that means a bit more time to be creative. 

Not enough love for his first 2 games. Looks back to his 2011 best when we struggled to win games with him out of the side.

 

Murphy is going to get his ■■■■ handed to him next week.

Integral.

In the first 5 picked I'd reckon. Still thinking I should have given him Nobby votes for Friday...

He reminds of the old ad for BP. 

 

 

 

The quiet achiever. Motoring along nicely. Gets tough jobs done without any fuss.

Good call by you.

Great game tonight.

Fucken tough ■■■■. Love him.

Has leg speed back too

Just watching Hocking spoil one of their ■■■■ small forwards and hit Goddard twenty metres in the clear on the replay…

Now I'm watching the bit where Hocking got hurt and he rushed straight back to the contest and bumped a Carlton player.

Oh, and then got the effective clearance and hit a guy in the 50.

Has he snapped a goal on his left yet?

Couple of minutes ago.

I mean, I'm sure the team thing to do was handball to a stationary bloke over 6'6", but still, nice goal.

His run through whats-his-face while in possession was the highlight.

My favourite moment of the night. So good.
