Mal.
That was the year Aitkin won the rising star. Things were really looking up for a while.

Daniher hurts opponents, in the past Lamb looked like his tackling was more like a hug!
Have you noticed the difference in Murphy this season?
We have a bunch of players who look feed up with being the road kill, they are pushing back!

The best thing about Murphy's recent form is that he's doing it without cover from Cripps and Curnow, he's an outstanding player and Captain who often doesn't get enough credit from supporters.

It's funny how we praise everyone when we win and get stuck into everyone when we lose :o

I think that Murphy is enjoying having team mates who, although they may be in their first or second season, don't mind getting physical with the opposition, and particularly when someone tries to rough up the skipper. Samo is one bloke who seems to like watching Murphy's back.

I think I read the other day has polled in the coaches votes in about 14-15 games this year which is a very consistent effort.
The big difference on the weekend was we had a very good spread of contributors. SOJ and Cas were very quiet, and Smedts played half a game but had a game high 8 tackles by that time - other than that we had even contributions across the ground and probably career or season best games from Pickett, Fisher, Lamb, Boek & Bryne. Weitering, Samo, Charlie and Plow were all very good as well, and Willo played his role and used it well. So a lot ticks for the young brigade.
It makes the job of the senior guys a lot easier when we spread the load more. Kerridge has also stepped up, and the Hawk midfield these days is not as hard as it used to be, which also suits our game.

Not our problem, but Hawthorn will miss Hodge far more than they missed Lewis or Mitchell. They will suddenly become very vulnerable down back with no General / Protector. Memo to James S: You'll be on your own, son! Good luck!!

Gibson as well, the Hawks are in for a few lean years but if I was a supporter I'd take it.

The best part of winning on Saturday was listening to the Hawthorn supporters complaining about Carlton's unsociable football. Their supporter base will drop off very quickly.
