It's a Major general tanking alright.

    Anyway, back to the game. I expect the Hawks to take it right to the Dockers until late into there 3rd quarter, and then pull on the handbrake.

    The AFL is well aware of their tactics. 

    At the start of the year Caroline Wilson reported the AFL were filthy with Hawthorn for exiting all their experience last year.  To name a few:  O'Meara, Mitchell, McElvoy, Dunstan etc thousands of games experience.   She even mentioned that evil word: priority pick. She said no chance they will get one given their deliberate list decimation.

    Not long after, one of the co-hosts of a Dunstall program mentioned that evil word.  He grinned.

    It isn't just pick 1 they want, a priority pick is their end game, if not this year then next.

    They have learnt nothing from the wasted years and culture destruction at the dees and blues 10 years ago from tanking. 

    Regardless of what Hawks do we will still end up with pick 5-7 from Freo or if we are very lucky #4.  And whatever pick we get I'm confident we will get the player we want at the top of the draft. 

    Hawthorn are one of the most arrogant clubs around. They think they can tank and make it work (exhibit A, the start of Clarkson's journey). They probably think Melbourne and Carlton are just inept clubs that couldn't tank as well as them for the end result of 4 flags in 8 years.

    Yes he does, but if they bring in that bloke McDonald, I think it was, who had 100 possessions against Casey, the ball will live in their forward line.

    Picked it.

    Just my opinion, but Jackson is still my #1 pick if the 2019 draft were re-done now.

    Absolutely no way is he's still number 1 lol

    By your reckoning Sam De Koning should be number 1 because he's a premiership player and has higher ceiling? Played CHB for a premiership team which is just as hard as playing ruck.

    He's absolutely no way ahead of Kozzie Pickett as a starting point.

    Chad Warner up from 39. What a steal.

    Kosi could be higher given 100 goals and defensive pressure.

    Jackson has a high ceiling and may or may not get there. Serong, Anderson, Warner are consistent performers now so are rightly ranked higher at this stage.

    If Greene played for a good side he’d be number one. He is a gun. Anderson is also really really good. We are just starting to see what he can do. 
    On the contrary if Jackson ended up at GC nobody would ever speak of him again.  Jackson was very lucky to get to the right club at the right time. We really fast tracked his development and he was lucky to play under Gawn and with one of the best midfielders going around.

    I think on known form I would have him around 7-8 and you could make an argument he would be last on that list.

    Not a truer word spoken on Demonland.

    So Freo v the Tankers today. Should be interesting viewing.

    Is there another game on today that I should be aware of? 😜

    Most arrogant thing they did was include 2 flags in their 5 year plan back around 2018.

    They genuinely believe they will always win flags on a regular basis.

    Do we want the Tigers to win to go above freo, or are we really gunning for pick 1 and the Eagles to win?

    I want Eagles to win for Hunty. We won’t get to pick 1. Hawks have it in the bag.

    That would rely on Hawks losing to a WAFL side down in Launceston in a couple of weeks.

    That would be the ultimate tank job.

    If we make a GF and Cats are the opponent I would instruct the boys to somehow get Cameron out of the game early, legally of course!!!!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
