Hinkley will get sacked mid season. Nothing surer.
I believe they will be top 4 at end of minor round but go out in straight sets
Butters won’t be playing against us in a few weeks.
Yet I’m still having nightmares about how we stop JHF who demoralised us last year, and Rozee who does as he pleases every time.
I would really like to beat them for the first time in 7 years
Now I don’t really like Port, but I reckon they are entitled to be peeved off for the fact that tonight’s game against the Pies is their only MCG game for the season.
Not good news. Zerk is a good bloke.
These clubs need to start kicking up a stink about being forced to play at 2nd rate grounds instead of being denied an opportunity to play at the G.
Gone on for too long
They have copped a few injuries to their key position players at either end.
Todd Marshall and Jack Lukosius up forward out for months and Zerk down back.
I wonder if this brings Ollie Lord into the frame. Or whether they’d be too top heavy with him there.
I think Lord is further away than they are letting on but anyway
Ollie Lord (shoulder) – test
Jed McEntee (hamstring) – test
Lachie Jones (adductor) - 1-2 weeks
Tom Anastasopoulos (ankle) 2-4 weeks
Zak Butters (knee) - 2-4 weeks
Brandon Zerk-Thatcher (back) 5-7 weeks
Ryan Burton (hip) - TBC
Jack Lukosius (knee) - TBC
Todd Marshall (achilles) - TBC
50m, dissent
Life is a Highway
Willie Rioli has been sent on leave after his I hate hawthorn post.
really? I hope it’s not a punishment thing.
■■■■ Hawthorn, sure, but ■■■■ Willie Rioli, too. He’s a grub. Not only did he deliberately (and bone-headedly) try to cheat a doping test, he’s a recidivist cheap-shot merchant. I certainly haven’t forgotten his off-the-ball hit that left Ridley concussed. Just about my most disliked player in the competition.
I mean yes he is a grub, but he really didn’t do much wrong here.
His old man and cousin copped some horrific ■■■■ while at that putrid club. Every right to call it out.
He requested personal leave apparently. Sounds like the abuse he copped after his post was too much
