Little has been made of this but its a massive loss not having the skipper in.

Hope he can get it right for the second half of the year.

Would be nice to play 4 quarters for once this year, having said that a 9 goal win over a Ross Lyon side shouldnt be sneezed at.

Big game against the Tigs this week, we dont usually play that well against em. Hopefully Buddy can fire up, he's been below par for a few weeks.

[MatteeG]

Schoenmakers next???

Yep- done on the weekend apparently. Also Puopolo.

[brod]

And Hodge today

[MatteeG]

Solid win tonight against a team dearth of confidence.

Good signs with the forwards sharing the goals. Reckon Hill should be the sub going forward.

Sewelly in good nick at the moment and Roughy going well. Defence getting better, I like we are at least keeping the same blokes in there to settle. Strats starting to take some consistent grabs.

Hopefully Buddy may only miss one or 2 if the hammy has been twinged.

I think Gunstan is going to be very important for u coming into finals

Should win the next two then before a big match aginst the Magpies.

Buddy looks set to miss 2 to 4 matches

Yeah probably but if that weasel Betts puts his body over the ball instead of reaching in with hand he doesnt get hit in the head. Was always taugfht to get your body over the ball to save yourself getting injuries. Where is Betts responsibilty to protect himself. It was the most pathetic attempt i have seen by a player to get the ball and i was Ratten i would be showing it to the whole list and making an example of what a sift c*** he was

Really?? I heard scans we're all clear and could play this week
Although I think they should rest him either way

Yeah Betts went in like he was plucking a can of beer from the bottom of an ice bath, very limp effort.

[Jim05]

Franklin to miss 3 with hammy injury

[the joker]

Serves the hawks right.
Your playing GWS and he has a tight hammy the week before. Give him 15 days off clarko.
If they lose to collingwood or essendon will be asked of the Hawks coaching team
