Dominating, need to finish those entries.

To the rational thread! We're killing it Great start.

Weed's !!! now

We have settled into the game, its not anything special know and we are playing our game.

That was shocking 5 to 1 and no one took control. Then Jones wandered slowly to the footy and it turned over to their mark. That kick was to Jones..

About to sit down and watch it in Perth, very excited its been a great week. First final in 12 yrs (Better than my last attended final match in Perth v shockers). We have been playing good finals type footy the last 2 rounds, far better than when we played the cats each time this year. Stick to our system and let our talent show, and burn those cats.

Gee hawks skills/decision making near goal is shocking

That. was a touchy 50

Yeah that was shocking miss, kicking in danger ha been on-existanet this year. That will continue till someone gets a boot and needs a new face.

I agree, i remember it was an amazing decision at the time. A weak board...

I think the biggest hurdle will this Friday. If we perform well beat the cats I believe the momentum and confidence will be there to contest in every game including the big one. Friday is to get rid our any stage fright.

As has been noted. Jimmy stepped in when he needed. But he needed an excellent CEO to run the club, not Schawb. If you match Jimmy with say a PJ, his tenure may be remembered very differently. Jimmy trusted the wrong people and advice at the wrong time. But he did his best given his health. Its the following administration which has more to answer, no excuses.

Hawks playing okay, but can't kick straight, still a half to go.

thanks I changed my tip

No player needs a rest for rd23, they get the following week off. That will freshen up all the players with a week off.

As much as I like Watt's his efforts no longer fitted the expectations of the club. I would take a half fit Hogan over Watt's every game.

Not in WA, cut it as soon as the game ended for Men in black!

Obviously you didn't sit with the Western Dee's group and then go to the aftermath int he Subaico clubroom where Joe Gutnick was trying to rev's us up We had a big demon crowd that day, like at today's game. It was also our greatest winning margin agains them. Great game today, bets I have seen them play for awhile. Kept pressure on all day and trusted their teammates so we could keep the ball moving forward. Still some mistakes but the pressure kept WC getting the better of them.

An omen?

we used to do that constantly as well... not as much now.

Nah, just win.

I'm betting Crows will beat them over there

oh yeah, I thought they were 1 game behind, We'll North can't catch us.

Looking at today's results, if North loose is will be very hard for us to drop out of the 8. Port/North would have to win huge next week and loose by heaps. Unlikely we'll be blown away in either game. You think Lyon will be gone in two weeks.

Its hard to judge compared to other clubs, but at a glance it seems we have far more than we should. Did the pies have problems before us at our training venue? I don't remember any reports. So it must be another cause, or simply poor physical mechanics in our players that we need a biomechanical to fix ASAP.
