    As I've said above Cameron's a good coach and he's lost personnel, whilst running a reasonable injury list. If they hold seventh they could make it to week three of the finals and if they do I don't think there's any team in the competition above them that would be confident of banking the win.
    The Hawks midfield was very impressive last week against the Pies. Intensity was high, tackling pressure really good. Mitchell is back to his best and O’Meara seems like he’s found a new lease of life.
    Worpel out helps he’s another big body through there.
    They did beat us in that pre-season game at Whitten too so there’s that if you’re a match up guy so I’m sharing your concerns.

    Next week for some reason I’m not as worried.

      It's a decent competition isn't it and one that you can't take a lot for granted no matter how well you are playing?

        Lyon should still be coaching, he's too good not to be no matter what you think about his strategy and tactics.

          RTB would be so perfect for Carlton to undo all of the unaccountability that Teague drilled into them. It makes so much sense that there's actualy no chance Carlton would think to do it.

            It was followed up by Leppitsch doing the same and Daisy was truly unnerved. She could barely get a word out of it afterwards.

            Not that I care for ultraviolence but the G train should have performed the community service of snapping Brayshaw in half like he threatened to.

              Tom Stewart likely out for a while with a lisfranc injury. That is a big blow for the cats. He's a gun (unlikeable, but a gun).

                  Saints would absolutely flog us if we got them now. They’ve got great pressure and King is slotting goals. Actually, we’ve done complete role reversals with them to when we last played them.

                    They’re looking super impressive. Pressure is through the roof.

                        Suddenly King looks better than Naughton. King can kick straight all of a sudden.

                          Impossible. If you’re a bad shot, you’re a bad shot for life and can’t even be trained to improve.

                            Tom Stewart out for the season.

                            Seriously if Melbourne can’t win it this year they never will.

                                Port and Cats also in trouble. Worst top 4 in memory.
