    Cats last night and Hawks tonight are showing that fast, attacking footy and ball skills win games. Kind of the opposite to our approach. We wouldnโ€™t have got within 10 goals of them.

    A few things with the Hawks:

    1. They arenโ€™t that young. Theyโ€™ve got real experience in their midfield and backline especially. Watsonโ€™s ready made, Weddle is a beast. Dear is the one super young player and turns out he might be a freak?

    ย 

    Theyโ€™re the 17th youngest list and 16th most inexperienced for games.

    I suspect @DeeSpencerย is talking about the 23 playing, not the entire list.

    The side currently playing has an average age of 25y 6m (Dogs are 26y 8m) and average games played of 107.6 (Dogs are 130.8).

    They're not that far off the same age/experience as Port last night (25y 10m and 107 games).

    I suspect they're the youngest side playing finals (perhaps GWS will be similar?) but they're nothing like some of the sides we saw in Round 24 (e.g. Fremantle was 24y 10m, Adelaide 24y 5m, GC was 24y 10m, North was 24y 9m).ย

    It's how you win games against teams that can't defend. We beat Geelong and Hawthorn, you know.ย

    I'm bored. Might dial up a replay of the last time we played the H's in a final. (One of the best trips to the footy I can remember)

    Hawks riding a wave of confidence and fitness (largely untroubled by injury all year, although they're doing this to the Dogs without Will Day).

    Every year you back the EF winner to beat the QF loser, and right now how can you pick Port to beat Hawthorn? But most years straight sets doesn't happen for a reason.

    If they knock Port off, they're as good a chance as any side of beating Sydney at the SCG to make the GF.

    Which leaves the Geelong v Hawthorn GF alive.

    For all the equalisation measures the AFL has implemented, having Geelong, Hawthorn and Sydney in the top handful of sides yet again is not good.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
