Regardless of the result I'd just love to see the selection committee and coaching staff just try something different - particularly forward. Change the look of our forward line to something we haven't seen and just see if it works. Give Q-Stick a farewell, maybe give Gault a shot as a forward (pretty sure that's what he's recruited for, despite playing ruck in the VFL recently). Just have a little imagination and try something completely different.
It was wet in Sydney but let's be honest our disposal is horrific at times and if there is a team that will destroy you from those mistakes it's Hawthorn.
I won't be shocked if this is closer than we all think as the Hawks will have their eye on the week after against the Cats. I suspect we will see one of two things. Either they will have a training run and absolutely destroy the tiniest bit of confidence we've got left OR they'll jump out to an early 4-5 goal lead and just hold it there for the remainder of the game - which will make for a stock standard boring as bat shit Round 23 game!!!
I hope I'm wrong I really do. Maybe Bucks should bring in all players that are playing for their careers??? Tell them they've got one game to prove themselves or their gone?
Whatever happens GO PIES!!!

All I will say is that there is no way we'll get hammered.
We probably won't win (we might), but we won't get hammered.

| The Club apparently thinks so. In fact, it looks from the latest injury list (26/8/14) like they think we might get deep into the finals. There's not much point to listing Cloke and Young as "3-4 weeks" rather than "Season" otherwise. |

We might not not get hammered but we might get plastered. Then again we could get screwed hopefully we won't be drilled.

I voted that we will cause an upset but then again I've previously bought a V slicer from TV advertising.

I would like to see us just tackle them non-stop, even if we tackle them without the ball and give away a free kick (as long as it isn't i50), just to hurt them all day, soften them up, make them feel our presence and put our little stamp on shaping the finals. Sending the hawks in sore and sorry would put a smile on my dial.

Lol, we weren't even paying $1.74 for Whoreks to roll us by +39 points.

I marvel at the pollyannaish level of optimism on Nick's. I really do.
