He didn't seem as hard around contests today. I wonder if he is carrying something. 

Hard to know the impact of leadership as armchair viewers, as bad as he was today I think his cool head would have been very handy today when the game was in the balance.

We can revisit his form in a few rounds, today was just one to forget.

Forget it we hope. But enjoy 4 in a row with the team against the Wobbles we hope he does. It's always a team effort.

Fantastic work Ash. The vid brings back so many memories. The late, great Robbie Flower is poetry in motion.

he was a lone hand.

We should have gone bananas right there and then but we didn't have the ticker.

We had nothing to lose, they were undefeated.

More embarrassing than '88.

But we responded today. ??

I bet he didn't see that coming!

I wonder if Mark is showing Woosher where the nearest 'Reality Bus' stop is...

We just spanked them on their own turf in front of their own smug supporters - why the hell are we reminiscing about the 2000 Grand Final? 

Because this is one of the reasons why today felt so good.

If anything, those assaults highlighted how flaky we were. 

Why didn't Ox or Neita fly the flag? How would have Simmo or Greeny would have felt after being left out to dry?

Some on here STILL condemn Hawthorn for refusing to get bashed up by Essendon during the Line in the Sand game. How dare they not stand by while 1st year teammates get poleaxed and intimidated? It's not like it did them any good. They got smashed in that game I got told...

A couple of them was before the game even started. Long's was one of the most cowardly acts I've ever seen on a football field.

I had a good chuckle, forgot he was allowed at another club.

I think Neil Craig is there too. 

I'll never forget it.

Why?

Because he's now influencing Essendon's future and not ours.

Don't know about you, but I loved seeing the vision of Mark Neeld giving instruction to Woosher in the box. 

No injury and not in the midfield. Not even in the mix.

Not your finest work mate..

How do you reconcile it DD36? Are you cool with a history of gambling corruption and performance enhancing drugs for our club?

Both Goodwin and Melksham have EFC drugs history and AFL gambling convictions. Can't say I'm going to be happy with any success that these guys might bring.

Why are we caring one iota about the wees and poos.

Had their time in the sun.

 

Don't really care about Hawthorn. I just think it's amusing where Frawley is. 

And it will be Chip's leadership and loyalty that will make Hawthorn great again...

I think they need a re build and will probably trade a couple of players at years end.

Poor Chip will have to live through another rebuild. Fortunately his staying power and leadership qualities will see the Hawks right.

Observation: Loved his little tanty as Hawkins marked just before he kicked his 3rd goal.

Let's spare a thought for Chip Frawley?

If you're back on Sunday, you can just watch it free on afl smart replay - online (or on your smart tv if you have one)

Cool. I am as it happens. Problem solved. Thanks SbF.

I see what you are saying, but it will be a much more even/better contest compared with the Dees/Dons game.

I don't care about even. I want the football world to see a smashing revenge.

Normally I would. But I'll be out of town with the family. Wanted to record it, but no dice.

Maybe I could just subscribe to Foxtail like everybody else.

Adelaide v Port Adelaide is being broadcast free to air on Saturday in Melbourne?
