Ankle sprain, foot got stuck under Sicily in the last 30 seconds. 

God damn Hawthorn. Good for nothing useless football club. Relegate them. 

[GCDee 3,199]

Job done, move on. 
Still feel like we aren’t clicking and seem to lack some polish, plenty to work on. 
Port next week will be a great test

I hope Petty and Petracca are playing.

Can't believe I'm going to have to watch Sparrow have 12 touches a week @ 28% efficiency for the next 8 years

10 of those in the first half and then he just stopped.

An absolute amazing amount of seagulls tonight I was gobsmacked. 

Well picked up Steve.

 

[Bang Bang Bang 5,801]

I can still remember 2014 when we lost to them by 50 points but it felt like we’d had a dip. More than happy to have the roles reversed. 
Loved Trent Rivers’ game today. Vins is having an excellent season. 
Not sure what Sparrow brings. 
Go away Jason Dunstall. Sick of having him cheer against us. 
 

[Garbo 1,517]

Easy win but once again we can’t stop teams scoring if we drop our tempo 

[Hawny for Gawny 443]

Really feel like petty not playing the second half had a bigger impact than I thought it would, doesn't help that the hawks actually decided to stop playing like a U-16 team for 10 mins

Another reason to hate Sicily 🤣

Rivers was best on ground in terms of exceeding expectations but the Big 3 midfielders were just immense. 

[layzie 33,729]

Looked like a big stinger 

[chook fowler 19,434]

Hibberd slaughtered Breust and May, Lewis. The backline was very good. Clearances remain an issue - can’t understand why given the personnel. Real shame that Petty was subbed out - was looking to be a turning point game for him as a forward. Love what Spargo brings.

 

[Billy 2,521]

A solid win, but after a couple of soft kills we really need a challenge, bring on Port

[BDA 22,696]

Hopefully petty and trac ok.

Bigger challenges to come. We bank the 4 points and move on. 

[layzie 33,729]

Not the best day on the medial front

Last week was not a soft kill. We got lucky to win.

Trac will do the right thing. I'm sure he'll ice it up tonight and during the week 

[Demon Dynasty 17,109]

A solid win for May's 200th over the horrible Hawks.  Gotta be happy with the result.

Looks like BBB in for Petty next week

Tracc 50/50

That Sicily.... what a [censored] and i don't mean for the Tracc tackle either.  Some of his work off the ball when he feels he's out of the contest is school yard rubbish.

[Demonised 1,323]

If you offered me a ten goal win before the game I would have taken it.

What happened to Trac?

Rolled ankle.  Seemed unperturbed when interviewed post match.

It felt like that was the game where Petty kicks a 3-5 goal haul and really gets his confidence up, started clunking them which was nice

[DemonOX 8,779]

Take the points and move on.

Sorry l meant North & Hawthorn 

[layzie 33,729]

I'm watching back the Kayo coverage and Trac was interviewed and reckons he's fine but just caught in a tackle.

Hopefully the physios can buff that out
