Yeah.........right, this is only a practice match!!!!!!!!. So Hawthorn are taking it easy too? The season proper starts in 2 weeks. Is the way we should be starting??

Sorry RR, I'm bent over waiting for you

Watch this space!!!!

14 points up at half time,we switched off,no injuries is NO. 1 Priority.

Bails has obviously rotated the midfield and rested Jamar.

SACK BAILEY!!!!!!!!!1!!!1

lol

Wishful thinking.

"Jamer, Jones, Sylvia, Moloney in the middle to start last. Need a big lift."

Bailey's put arguably our 4 most experienced mids in the centre to get things underway. The result? Hawks snag 2 quick goals.

I don't care what time of year it is, that sucks.

Jurrah goal - finally something to smile about.

Garland kicks it but turns it over ... Hawks win back ball. Whitecross has it ...

lines up and kicks a goal

Try "Ball bounced.... Hawthorn win it again".

We cannot get a sniff in the middle with a near full line up. Terrible.

Sounds like a disappointing second half after a solid first half. We seem to switch on and off a lot

Ok, so we've gone from 14 points up at half time ... to now 38 points down half way through last quarter. So in a half of football we're being beaten by 52 points by a side missing their three best players.

I don't care what time of year it is, that's inexcusable.

Trend for the second half. We kick into our forward line and Hawks win the ball.

At 18 minute mark of last they have scored 65 points to our 13 in second half and in second round when we play them they get Buddy, Hodge and Mitchell back. Looking good.

2 goals in a half. That's just rubbish.

Make that 3.

Attention: No injuries

Although... who did Bate get super-sub'd on for at half-time?

Second half is indeed a little bit shizen...

Jurrah goal - finally something to smile about.

... that and Fev at Casey when he gets back from vacation

Must be Bates fault. He came on and we immediately started falling apart.

Ah well that's it... We're for the chop, the end is nigh , sky about to fall and worst of all the bottle of red is empty... Life sucks!!!

But wait, there's more... God bless graysonline )

Ffs folks , just a little early isn't it for wrist slashing ?????

Via Twitter: 1. Game has faded away here in Tassie. One positive for all you DreamTeamers and SuperCoaches out there - Grimes will be gold for u this year less than 10 seconds ago via web

... translation... The ball is going to be in our back line a lot!!!

Haha. Just playing. A bit concerned but happy to wait until the season unfolds before criticizing.

QUESTION:

How many games did we win last year in the pre-season???

We didn't win a lot during the season either

Final score 102 v 75

Disappointing after good start, but no injuries. Looking forward to real season and I hope a much different Melbourne turns up against Sydney at the G.

Edit: 27 scoring shots to 15, and that is without Buddy playing. Could have easily beat us tonight by 10 goals.
