Season 2024 - Hawthorn

Yeah I know but they’re scary to me… I’d take a lot of other teams over them ATM in that 6-12 bracket especially at the G

You get scared a lot.

If you are going to win a final, more often that not you have to beat a good team. It’s not like WE can play Essendon in an elimination final.

Unless we buy out NM, use it as a reserves team, and become late 90s/early 00s Australian cricket team level dominant.

We would frequently have Essendon vs Essendon A finals.

And we would be allowed to pluck out Essendon A’s best player and make them our non-playing emergency.

Not without Hird and Lloyd. Although Hird likely plays.

Hird would’ve been fine. Lloyd and Bewick wouldn’t have been able to play…

Even full strength the odds would have been stacked against us. It was North‘s to lose that year

Without Hird for most of 1999 we got to the prelim. If he had played in the prelim, we could have been in the GF and possible Premiers.

They’ll enjoy another dynasty as we bounce between 7th and 15th

I stated that they had gone past us 3 weeks ago and some called me crazy. They are probably up there with the Blues in terms of form at the moment.

Hawks just know how to recruit. They haven’t had the same top picks as us, but they have selected the right players.

Mitchell can really coach too. They have already gone past us. They’ll get a couple of big name recruits over the next few years.

Unfortunately, yes he can.

Hawthorn are easily the most successful club of the past 50 years and just know how to do thing correctly. Instead of admiring them and following their method, we take the opposite approach. Because we despise them so much we are too ashamed to copy?

My brother is a mad Hawks fan.
He wants to go to the game this week.
TBH, I wouldn’t mind heading down the highway either.

Only a Premium seat available on Ticketmaster, and Tixel currently has niente.

Edit…looks like tickets available now on Ticketmaster.
