That was 4 quarters of absolutely magnificent footy.

*Insert OTT hyperbole here*

 

Our kids played really, really well, and geez hasn’t Trac arrived.

Weed was a genuine target on the lead as well. I loved his whole game. Great signs.

So many good players today.

1 Vote for everyone.

(North might just be starting to fell a tiny bit nervous too haha)

 

IM AM SO PUMPED I FEEL LIKE THE MICHELIN MAN.

 

GO DEES!!!!

I think if we can get ahead and then be in front when the game finishes, we’ll win. 

 

Uncanny accuracy. It's either the luck of the Irish, or the kid knows his football

Dees by five goals.

Jackson to surprise with 2 goals.

Weid to kick 3.

We will keep the Hawks to no more than six goals.

Yes, I'm probably partially drunk.  Maybe.

Whereas this chump can't even get the margin right

 

(But feel free to keep drinking, please)

To everyone - enjoy it.  While it's only a win during a long season, smashing the Hawks by 7 goals is something you can't ignore.  They have embarrassed us so many times over the last decade and now it's our time to start paying them back.

Trac was sublime.

Gawny stood up as captain and dominated all day.

Viney and Oliver were awesome in the engine room

Jackson was the right pick and was terrific.

Our backline made them look ordinary, and they have been building to this for weeks now.

Everything is starting to come together and it is exciting to watch.

Go Dees!

Hawthorn FC.....Our Bunnies.

Petracca has developed TIME, he has soo much time

[Pickett2Jackson 3,904]

It doesnt get any better than belting Hawthorn.    I hope their fans are suffering tonight.

We were their bunnies for so long so good to get it back. 

[Cassiew 1,903]

Even the most negative demon fan couldn’t complain about that. First class performance all around.

[bringbackthebiff 654]

Meh. Hawthorn are just percentage for us

[Bitter but optimistic 22,223]

[censored] me .  We looked like a premiership side today!!!

Max Gawn - A mountain.

Petracca - best game ever.

The good times are over for Clarko - rebuild.

I made some serious money and ..... the maid has gone into hiding!

[titan_uranus 24,983]

Obviously our best game since the 2018 SF.

We won all four quarters. We weathered their initial storm, then we weathered their early third quarter pressure.

Weideman growing with confidence (would have loved him to kick that final goal). IMO a clear tick for the two tall forwards gameplan.

Gawn unbelievable, Petracca likewise. 

Our defensive zone is clearly working: sides are struggling to score against us provided we don't turn it over. OMac, Lever and May all worked well together again, can't deny that trio is working well.

Langdon has been great all year and the more we learn how to use his gut running and space-saving on the wing, the better we get.

I haven't enjoyed footy this much since 2018. Hawthorn might be a bottom 4 side this year but we outplayed them like a finals side should.

Well that was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon!!!

[whatwhat say what 22,713]

that was great

good team footy all around, even those that were 'poor' still were able to play their role

[chook fowler 19,447]

Really pleased with OMac and Weed - both had question marks against them but have been great.

[Mazer Rackham 14,971]

This Weideman kid ... a bit of a find. Snuck under the radar, was he elevated off the rookie list?

[The Stewster 220]

The beer tasted good today!

Bugger the beer, crack open the Grange.

Absolutely rapt for Weid. Has copped the abuse, copped the bad luck with injuries, copped the non-selection and now taken his chances the last couple of weeks. Good on him.

Yep correct 

OMac was particularly good

Weid growing into his skin
