    I don't care if you're ultra positive, or ultra negative...

    None of us saw a 49 point turn around in 20 minutes.

    I always thought we could win...not be 3 goals to be fair but we showed in the 2nd q that we had it in us.

    Clearly - CLEARLY - the better side on th day...take the 3rd q out of it and you are looking at a dominant performance.

    It was the most fun, relaxed come back I've seen. I knew we had them with the two man advantage, based on our first half. The little bit of doubt I had was the margin, their third was impressive. English looked spent. But we took advantage and they imploded. It was wonderful.

    Couldn’t believe it myself. I thought st 1/2 time we were in for the fight. Then at 3/4 time I thought these lads are gonna get a lesson.

    Then out of the blue I’m back in time. Yes September 2016 to be exact.

    Guess I’m lucky to live thatmoment twice.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

    I thought the 5 goal lead flattered Hawthorn. How we were only a few points up at halftime I don't know, that 2nd quarter inside 50 count was an avalanche.

    Just magic
    Should have been 5 goals up at least at half time
    Just wish it had gone another 10 min , I reckon we would have won by 10 goals .
    The hawthorn fan whinge fest on social media has been wonderful.
    Would have lost that by 10 goals last year .

    It was 41 to 15 at half time . We have to put distance on the scoreboard when this happens

    We were stiff that it was raining during our period of dominance.

    I watched clarko's presser and he said he was surprised that the dogs weren't further ahead at half time.
    The press tried to push him on the umpiring and wouldn't have a bar of it.

    Honestly sitting amongst all the hawkers up top and listening to their whingeing for 4 quarters. Why oh why did they have to do a mass evacuation in the final 2 minutes??? At the final siren i just wanted to go up and hug each and every one of them, look them in the eye and say "i'm so sorry for those 150 odd incorrect umpiring decisions and if i could change it all i would but i can't so just suck it up for once in your privileged football lives..."
