Hawks may have to play at an interstate home ground in the finals, maybe even twice, but their record shows it doesn't matter where they play the consistency is still there and if they can weather that storm they end up at home at the MCG likely against an interstate team so that challenge flips, if they don't have to play GWS who are very similar to them or Geelong with their long history of close finishes usually in front (except for important finals) then all bodes well, they may finish as high as 6th yet.
Giants supporter here. Looking fwd to this week's episode of "the stats don't lie". Seems they do if you just decide to look at the stats that back up your one eyed viewpoint.
Why are we surprised Jeremy McGovern has been the best defender for 10 years. But West Coast produces the best, Guy McKenna, Glen Jackovich. Darren Glass, Tom Barrass and Jeremy McGovern etc.
@@njokic2176 2 of the best key backs in comp barrass and battle end of year releases cissily forward and weddle to mid thats a cup team and just the beggining!

I began to think that goal-kicking practice was banned at WB training, but then I heard that Brad Johnson was "helping" the forwards. Is Brad a poor teacher, or are the players there poor students? I would instruct the WB forwards to close their eyes when they kick. At least then they might accidentally kick straight.
@@stevelozevski8151 Well LDU IS 6th for clearances. That’s something. And Xerri is 2nd for clearances himself. I think that North is up there for stoppages in general. Stats don’t lie.
Geezus Steve you are exhausting. Make your own conclusions. What I do know is that Gawn is not in the top 10 of any of these categories though he is up there for marks behind the ball. Hit outs to advantage I’ve no idea.
Giants can win it. I don't think they will. Close recently. Its not always just bad luck that teams seem to miss in front of goal. Pressure perhaps? Runout of energy, but it keeps happening. I have seen a few teams kick 50 points early and run out of steam only to lose by games end. Good teams. Hard to work it out.

Put them at g for home ground or under the roof see were they finish end of year! Would not make the 8! No chance!

@@sanchezgaming2146 Wilkie ain't shit? AA fullback last year and been one of the best defenders in the league over the past few years. Just say you don't watch footy. As for Battle, I'm happy with the compensation pick we're gonna get for him and turn it into a gun midfielder which we desperately need. He's been sick for us this season, but is replaceable. I hope he kills it at the Hawks and achieves the success he's after
@@TNT_12 Wilkie doesn’t catch the eye. Nobody watching the saints currently. Saints are and have always been the most mid club of the comp. Keep crying
They are flat out wrong. I'll bet anyone on here that that victory against collingwood last friday will be the catalyst for getting their premiership quest back on track. Yes, they played like crap, but they found a win and grinded out a win and will now finish 1st = 2 home games, build some form and they will b getting all their injured players back. They'll win it and ill bet anyone on here. That fri night victory will end up being the most significant win of the year of any team
Cats score from turnover avg is 49.5pts per game, ranked 6th. AFL avg 47.1pts. They ground out 3 wins in a different way recently. To say the aren't threatening offensively is a brain dead take. They have the 5th highest scoring offence.
Accuracy is so important it is a disgrace that COACHES and team selectors have NEVER paid any attention to it. Ditto now for ruckmen and the big fullforward standing in the goal square. Hawthorn won 2 premierships by using a 2nd ruckman as a marking loose man in the general area of centre half forward . The modern game is over coached ( mostly by amateurs ) and played by athletic robots....... Mitchel has let the young Hawkes off the leash, and is allowing them the freedom to play football. What a difference that makes to a short team lacking in Superstars.
@@imalwaysright Every coach copying the mainstream is an amateur. Sam is mostly letting the players free to play their own game, but that either failed against Port and the Giants, or Sam instructed them to go defensive. The last previous coach to let the players play their own game was Malcolm Blight. An overated player, but a grest coach. How many champion players make great coaches......very rare. Who have been the best coaches in the last 50 years.........back pocket scrubbers like Kevin Sheedy, David Parkin etc, and other scrubbers like John Kennedy, Alan Jeans etc
Next year onwards champ! 🤎💛💪🏆🏆🏆🏆 coming next 10 years! The trades they will get next 5 years will be insane! All the top talent free agents will want to come for another dynasty! Most likely no cup this year but its not impossible anything can happen come september! 😊

J. McGovern is the best defender in the comp. If you don't believe that, you haven't watched him play live
I'd agree, but for context they are talking purely this year.
@@garethfraser7748 yeah, this year as well. Clearly don’t watch the eagles play, he’s been at AA level all year
McGovern should be locked and take your pick for the second or third key back.
Carlton no longer the midfield of last year. As Kingy and others called it, they were "violent" in there. What happened to the brutal blues mids

Anyone can be the best defender when your team is on the front foot wait until port are under pressure and going backwards then let’s see him perform
He's literally saved some games from his intercept marks even when ports midfield is getting destroyed
