Its hard to think back to a worse Hawthorn team than this one running around today.
Walsh was our best by a long way and I though Wingard the same for the Hawks.
Hard to find too many other 4 quarter players, Mitchell got plenty of ball but did nothing with it, Omeara and Cripps seem to be a nil all draw and the rucks were also fairly even. Liked TDK's game in parts and it was handy to have him back, Eddie was dangerous as was Bruest and I thought Saad was one of our best even though he had a couple of goals kicked on him.
Williams got a few kicks but was just so so IMO, probably Weitering was our best player after Walsh and both him and Jones controlled their positions not that they had much opposition, didnt see much of either Lewis or Kositchke.
Wouldnt want to play like that vs the Swans though and I reckon Teague would be happy with a win but not so happy about how we won it...
Seemed too happy to simply go along and play at their standard.
As a Carlton supporter won't knock a win though, even ugly.
