Deestroy All

This [censored].

I swear he was my cantine lady in highschool.

He was fine. And I'm not a fan. If his chase on Riewoldt wasn't a pressure act then it's another stupid stat. He flew for the ball and contributed to the win. Not everyone can star.

Great player and one of my favourites. His driving, rugby-like tackles were always a highlight. As tough and reliable as they come.

Did Vince run over your dog, A F? You're on the hunt lately. Did you not see some of Lewis' turnovers? Everyone made mistakes in the heat of round 1. Vince was outstanding.

Nothing to do with contests, he got suspended for stupid [censored] just like Bernie. He admits it himself. Bernie getting suspended takes nothing away from his leadership ability. If it did then he wouldn't be in the leadership group.

I had the lid off the lube half way through the 3rd.

Jono Brown was a [censored] leader too then?

Christ all mighty. I'm proud of myself for not giving up there and then looking at that list.

Best of... pffff every goal is the best. lol @Tremblay

And so we should. It was an accident.

The slow-mo vision of that handball shown on Access All Areas really shows how brilliant it was. This kid is something else.

Apparently someone tweeted this morning that Hogan was on crutches. I can't find a single thing about it anywhere so I assume it's bs. Anyone know anything?

I think Freo looking putrid is making Geelong look better.

Foxtel just lost audio. Someone up there is listening.

I love the way the Crows play. Isn't the new rushed behind rule supposed to be a ball up at the top of the square, not a free kick?

That joint ain't nuttin' to [censored] with. What an awesome name.

Mitchell and Lewis 70 possies. Hawthorn:

I can't sleep so I'll jot down my thoughts on the game. That first quarter was killing me at the time. Here we go again type stuff. The backline looked panicked and horrible, the mids doing [censored] all to stop it getting down there. But watching the replay, in a much calmer state, we really only played 10 bad minutes of footy. That's all it takes for 4 goals to be piled on in modern footy. I thought that was Jones' best ever captains game, ironically enough. Showed real leadership, just looked determined and turned the game. Nice left foot on him now too. Oliver is just a freak. I don't mean because he's ginger, I mean a footballing freak. Also because he's ginger. Those hands, he's like Magic Johnson out there. That lofted handball over his shoulder to Jones who goaled on his left was just footy porn. As gifted a footballer as I've seen. Don't forget the start of his pre-season - looked out of shape, drink driving incident, and was struggling with hayfever. What a turnaround. Gawn does what Gawn says he's gunna do. Said he needed to get one back on Hickey, and he [censored] smashed him. It was like having one extra player at every stoppage because of his taps. Jordan Lewis, lol. Thanks Hawthorn. I thought Bernie was his old self. I don't like him in the backline at all but this was one of his better days down there. Made mistakes, everyone did, but he far outweighed them with the good that he did. Was really smart without the ball, helped steady the shaky backline. Jetta. I feared he wouldn't get a game, thank [censored] he did. He's our best defender. One of our most reliable players. To think Melksham could've taken his spot makes me feel ill. I thought Melksham was terrible. How he supposedly went at 93% is beyond me. Was like a deer in the headlights and gave away stupid frees. A year out is no excuse for mine, considering how every other Bomber or ex Bomber played this round. I thought Tom McD was very good after quarter time. Some brilliant defending moments and that great mark near CHF. I still close my eyes when he has ball in hand though. Oscar really struggled, I like Oscar, but give me Frost. Petracca is awesome to watch. He will turn games on their head. Needs to lower the eyes more but geez he's exciting when he gets it. Was happy with Watts' game. I've always said he needs to jump at a pack or 2 and he did that. Loved hearing Goodwin mention that after the game too, so it's obviously been addressed. His ball use was good as usual. Hannan, what an exciting debut! What a nightmare to match up on. Young Dale Thomas ish. I've been a Neal-Bullen critic, but he was quite good. I'd still replace him with a fully fit Kent though even on that performance. Hogan was brilliant. Love the strings to his bow moving him up field. Has great hands for a tall. Looks set for a huge year. That'll do. [censored] yeah footy!

Hawthorn need a Sam Mitchell / Jordan Lewis type.

They played in the same team once.

Was OK I spose.

6 Vince 5 Oliver 4 Jones 3 Gawn 2 Lewis 1 Hogan Apologies Petracca and MC Hannan.

Stop! Hannan time! sorry

This is the most unwatchable backline we've ever assembled.
