    I thought we hated the Hawks because we have beaten them about five times in 50 years.

    Certainly a good reason.

    I hate Hawthorn for the following reasons: Leigh Matthews, Don Scott, Robert Dipierdomenico. I've always hated brutal thugs. I don''t care how talented they were, the bottom line is they maimed people and in any other sport their actions would be rightfully classified as Assault.

    I have heard some woeful sledges in my time but this one takes the cake. Surely you can do better than that?

    This is the only reason i have any angst against them. They hay bullied us big time in the last 10 years. Their fans have become increasingly smug too.

    Time for a new sheriff.

    Not sure why I'm supposed to hate them for the merger, good on them for blowing it up.

    Yep, and they have no respect for us what so ever both on and off the field, smug players and supporters.  We have been their bunny for 30 years

    Because their success has had no humility with it, no grace and no modesty.

    When 50yo Hawks supporters talk about having to survive the bad years I become incandescent with rage, usually I finish with - when you haven't won a flag for over 50 years come back to me because currently you are talking out of the wrong hole.

    Personally i cant hold that against them.

    When we win a GF im gonna be the person who everybody goes out of their way to avoid. I will go to work wearing MFC gear every day, walking around with my chin up in the air like Toby Green, and talk up my teams' premiership every single [censored] opportunity i get.

    Im over 50 and have never seen a premiership so i will make the absolute most of it. Humility ,grace and modesty can wait for the 3rd cup in a row.

    :P

    Because most of their fans are arrogant toss bags who go to two games a year and know about 4 players, but walk around acting as though they are the sole reason for the club's success.

    Most of their players have never bothered me.

    Everyone hates the Hawks. Not one neutral supporter tomorrow night is going to be barracking for the Hawks.

    For me, the main reason why I hate the hawks is Jealously. One of my best mates has witnessed his team when 4 flags the last 10 years, while I have watched my boys collect multiple wooden spoons.

    For years I have had him made fun of my club and I had no ammo to go back to him with. Hopefully that changes at 10:30 tomorrow night!

    Wow, as much as the Hawks' dominance has been clear, I never thought to check this stat.

    There has never been a better time to correct this...

    I admire Hawthorn and have enjoyed watching them play during their most recent era of dominance.

    When I was 7 years old, Jim Stynes came to my school, handballed a footy to me and said we'd win the flag. He was wrong (we got thumped by the Hawks in the GF), but a new Dee was born anyhow. The funny thing is that prior to Jimmy's sales pitch, I was a Hawks supporter. Sometimes I wonder what could have been, had I supported such a successful team...

    The answer is that I would have turned out boring. Us Demons have character. We're the Malteser you find behind the couch (everyone else eats those, right?), they've got soul.

    We've got soul.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
