[joeboy 2,891]

N.Jones- had little impact

Watts - relevant no longer

Dawes - tried without impacting

Viney - failed to impose

Frawley - going through motions

Tyson - prolific , not damaging

Dunn - just a game

Kent - was rarely sighted

Cross - professional as expected

Garland - was hardly noticed

Michie - a Casey performance

Kennedy - Harris - just a kid

McDonald - amateur against professional

Riley - effective when subbed

Barry - some hurried efforts

Gawn - one promising light

Howe - loose but classy

Jamar - probably broke even

Bail - continued poor form

M.Jones - little to commend

Jetta - brave and relentless

Vince - few worthwhile possessions

Thoughtful

Trolls night out?

Hawks are top of the table or thereabouts, we found a few who can play against contenders , we've got 1/2 a dozen NQR we know about and a couple who have had plenty of chances were sorted from previous week.

Prefer it to last week thanks.

Each of our players was playing against a TOP opponent and had team mates that fully supported each other, the analysis above would suggest we lost by 100+ points. A lot of players did not get a lot of stats but did their bit, i thought it was a pretty good team effort marred by our inability to get the ball into our forward line often enough and lack of ball skill which resulted in us missing targets and turning the ball over frequently.

[Dockett 32 1,213]

Last week the Hawks polished off the Bulldogs by 62 points in a canter. Our effort wasn't that horrible. Couple of babies in the best in the seconds as well. More work needed but we're on the right trail.

[KingDingAling 3,656]

By Nath Jones stardards he was just solid.

But by MFC standards Jones had a very good game.

[Bobby McKenzie 2,209]

Thoughtful

And loyal!!!!

[Adzman 2,085]

I watched the game and found Dom Barry okay when he was involved in the play. He ran hard both ways, was part of a few useful linking plays out of the backline and used it well when he got it. He looked lost at times, yet other times read the play well. Look, he has a long way to go, but the fact he started on the ground and was odds on to be subbed and wasn't (that honor went to Bail) shows he is progressing.Given he signed a new deal, I was happy to see some of the progress the club obviously sees with him.

Gawn must play the final 3 rounds. I think the Russian's best football is now behind him, and I think he might have one year left in the tank, two at best. That leaves the cupboard bare for ruck prospects outside of Gawn. He needs to be thrust into the #1 ruck role sooner rather than later. Outside of Gawn there are some question marks of Spencer and Fitzy, and King is miles off. If Gawn isn't ready for the #1 job by the end of next season we are going to struggle moving forward.

Jetta gave Puopolo a bath! If he had played 20 rounds this year he would be a lock for an AA backman.

Good loss.. Moved up the ladder.. Go dees!

Agree. The ins this week have upside the outs don't.

I hope you take this in the right vane

" there is no such thing as a good loss"

See we can't even tank properly....

[Deecisive 1,665]

did we move up or did GWS through their flogging go down?

totally agree, the pessemistic attitude of most on this site is tiresome at best!!!!

Very hard on Jamar (won clearly in the ruck) Michie and Tom McDonald. Have a look at Roughhead's goals--several were gifts on the goal line

[Farmer 704]

One of the more absurd comments I've ever encountered.

The previous week he easily beat Stefan Martin in the ruck (yes Stefan got a number of possessions but rarely on Jamar) and again this week he won the ruck contests.

It's stupid he's not in the leadership group. He is giving 110 percent

Giving 110% doesn't necessarily make you a leader.

It's just a matter of opinion, but I think your comment is absurd.

I'm not alone in thinking Mark Jamar has passed his use-by date.

Many would challenge your contention that he "easily beat" Stef Martin against Brisbane. I reckon Stef's annihilation of Jamar was crucial in their defeat of us.

He was better v. the Hawks, but I felt big Max Gawn showed he's a class above.
