An effin’ glorious understatement of an action.
Though I still don’t understand why the AwFuL didn’t fire that umpire.
Wasn’t he reported & fined for that? FFS that is a perfect & 100% legal bump.

The Hawks didn’t even lose the ball.
I deadset fell to the ground. There were tears. Had just gone through the process of closing down an iconic independant business, and a friend had taken their own life in the month before. Add that to the saga stuff and it was just all came out when that siren sounded.

That Rioli free kick was joke. Dropped the ball. Free kick Hawthorn.
Hird (re-)instilled something into that group, team, club - it’s gone now.

Yep. But in reality that was no excuse for coughing up a ~7 goal lead at the 25min mark of the 3rd qtr. We failed to score in the last.
