Or this current decade. 21 Dees and 2 Hawks, same as 2007- 15 but inn reverse

Sorry but it is not 2015 to 2021 Demons 31 to Hawks 2.

The following Hawks are certainties 

Sam Mitchell , Jaeger Omeara Sicily Silk and Like Bruest and possibly Jack Gunston.

That's  6   Those from our GF side who would not beat these 6 for experience consistency ability and team discipline over a decade or a 5 year  period are:

Petty Spargo Jordon Sparrow ANB and Harmesy.

Thsts not too denigrate any of our players but the above group have only played ONE season of note and not even established a regulation spot yet in our best 23. ( They all deserve to be selected in Round1 however as premiership players)

But if you had to select players over the 5 years those 6 Hawks are ahead as of end of 2021.

End  of 2023/4/5 very different story probably.

I was also a huge B.Lovett (and G.Lovett) fan back in the day.  My sister actually went to girl guides with one of Brett's nieces who's parents ran the family plant nursery (where I believe Brett also worked sometimes?) in Box Hill.

Yep, he referred to himself as a ‘landscaper’ when asked his occupation. I was such a Brett Lovett tragic as a kid that I told my mum and dad if I wasn’t going to be a footballer I wanted to be a landscaper.

Today I live in an apartment and own exactly one plastic plant.

And yes he was a footballer's footballer but he was also suuupppeeer sloooooww,

He didn't need to be quick. His ball use and decision making was exquisite.

O'Meara is not a certainty I think his career has been very disappointing for the Hawks. Give me Petty over Sicily any day. It's Tom Mitchell Sam is the coach.

 

B: Sicily, May, Lever

HB: Salem, Petty, Rivers

C: Langdon, Petracca, Brayshaw

HF: Gunston, McDonald, Neal-Bullen

F: Breust, B.Brown, Fritsch

FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Mitchell

IC: Jackson, Pickett, Bowey, Harmes

That is true and I don't diagree, but Salem has both.

While Salem hasn't had quite the same longevity as a footballer yet, he does have the claim of being a premership player and brilliant performance over that season overall and the GF when it really counts.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
