    Who's that hand-balling? Is it Kade Simpson?

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Ollie Greeves

    He was being touted as a top 10 by the media because he was one of the top 10 performing players in the Talent League and National Championships. I mean he averaged 25d and a goal in both comps. But that doesn't reflect how clubs rank them looking at their potential to step up to AFL level...

    Training 2026 Off-Season & Preseason reports and discussion

    Butler is already in the 22 so of course ahead of him. Cody unfortunately is well down the ranks with our new draftees (to be expected as a 2nd year player) however I feel Greeves and Dalton could push ahead of him with good pre-seasons. I'd say midfield (inside) rankings would be something...

    Fascinating how much technique is involved in just running. Dalton clearly just very efficient and steady. His back, shoulders and head and hips all stay straight and it's all legs and arms moving. Morrison the same. The guys at the back Greeves and Schubert you cant see when they swing their...

    News We’re at Dingleyland! First open training, December 6th!

    I think a lot of this issue is on City of Kingston not on Hawthorn FC. I am almost certain that the surrounding grassland (on Hawthorn FC land at KCC) would be the clubs plan for large events. Just like the MCG carpark or like what StKilda used to do on what is now the dog park. I think...

    Not only so they didn't need to call up, but also have the phone be answered when people did call up.

    News We’re at Dingleyland! First open training, December 6th!

    There area about 70 car parks in the staff carpack behind the Main building. Roughly 200 on the main road behind the Community Pavilion. And about 240 to the left of the roundabout. So there are 500 car spaces available and people are complaining. I understand how with Tootal Rd not being...

    News We’re at Dingleyland! First open training, December 6th!

    Kingston Council has approved to "fast track" Tootal Rd works recently (posted earlier in this thread) we should see some movement from them in this area in the not to distant future.

    News We’re at Dingleyland! First open training, December 6th!

    As long as none of you lot park in front of my house it'll be okay. But sounds like a nightmare waiting to happen. Waverly was bad with the traffic, now we are going to have hundreds trying to cross tootal rd where there is no crossing, into the KCC driveway which is still a long walk into the...

    News We’re at Dingleyland! First open training, December 6th!

    I think that's just landscaping work. Plans have a swale there, which is essentially a trench filled with rocks and maybe some plants added. It's for drainage and flood prevention.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Matthew LeRay

    In the end yes it's a good measure that's why all clubs do it. But enduring a long high intensity run, isn't the same endurance as a game. Some of the best endurance players are not the fast wingers who dominate time trials but the tough inside mids or ruckman that get smashed into again and...

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Matthew LeRay

    A game of football goes longer than 6 minutes and involves more than running. Even Brad Hill ran out of gas by half time early in his career. Being fast over 2 or 3km doesn't mean you can keep running deep into a forth quarter after being tackled, bumped and wrestled for 2 hours.

    Unofficial Preview 2025 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion...now with added DFA spitballing!

    I don't think he's revealed himself but wouldn't be surprised if Ginni's dad was a regular poster here that we all know. He's very active in Hawks facebook groups, and was sharing lots of picks of young Jack in hawks gear when he got traded.

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Aidan Schubert

    I can't help thinking looking at his frame that he could be a monster when he fills out. Take a look at Thilthorpe in his draft year and he very quickly became a beast. Schu as a bit more filling out to do but has a similar frame with the shoulders

    It was absolutely crazy of them. Not only should Merrett have been traded, it should have been Essendon's idea.

    Prediction 2026 jumper numbers.

    Watson requested 34 to be next to Ginni. It wouldn't surprise me if Cmac, Ginni, Watson and Dear all want to stay in the 30s their whole career in that rascal pack.

    News We’re at Dingleyland! First open training, December 6th!

    More than 10 years for KCC but the freeway extension and dingley bypass road projects had been planned much longer that would drive more traffic to the area. . Plus Tootal Rd has needed improvements for far longer than that. And while the parking probably isn't adequate for games and family...

    Unofficial Preview 2025 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion...now with added DFA spitballing!

    I hope nobody at the club has this attitude. It may be unlikely, he may have other clubs as his first preference. But we should never give up. Even if he signs a 9 year contract at the dogs next season. We should still try to chase him in 2027 and 2028 and 2029 and 2030.

    No, I'd much prefer Box Hill or Dandenong. Peninsula is too white for NGA.

    Unofficial Preview 2025 Hawk's Hypothetical Trade Discussion...now with added DFA spitballing!

    2 good options I think. With a fit side they don't play but I'd imagine we'd rather have McLaughlin play a few games in an injury crisis than an 18 year old. Similar with the wing spot if Morrison, Dambrosio, Weddle go down Stanley is a depth option over LeRay who will take time. Box hill last...

    Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn: Ollie Greeves

    On the building a tank, we've seen with Cam Mackenzie who was a top 10 pick that it takes time to get up to AFL level and remain involved deep into games. Ollie has work in this area, but besides Dalton, i'd say all our Draftees have a lot of work to do get AFL level fitness. Be it strength...

    Good to hear CMac is doing extra stoppage work. We've tried a few times to get him into the middle but his positioning seems to let him down in there so far and it doesn't last long. If he can get a handle on the structures and stoppage work he'll be a real weapon in there. He's a classy player...

    Hill needs to transform his body from a Rugby League body to an AFL one. He has spent many years training for a different game so needs to get used to longer distance running at speed rather than jogging along and then burst running. It's day 1 of his 2nd AFL pre-season so come March I expect...
