@WizardEnjoyer5 Very big for hawks, a win vs freo week 1 sets up likely a home prelim vs Adelaide. Assuming hawks/cats/crows win. Freo very tough but gettable.
A dogs win is best path for hawks, gives a week 1 win over Freo into a likely home prelim vs Adelaide. Freo prelim vs lions at Gabba. Hypothetical and no easy win regardless #hawks#hawthornfc
@HawksInsiders Some good first crack pressure stats on win % for winning pressure factor. Was 72% in season and 93% for top 6 teams. Pressure wins games. Bemused our game plan doesnโt focus on pressure as a key pillar.
Big concern for the Hawks. Presser rating matters and we are lacking. Teams that win pressure stat have a 72% win rate across the afl competition. Top 6 teams who win the pressure stat have a 93% win rate. #hawks#hawthorn
@HawkTalkPod I always hear from most, if not all opposition players/coaches in interviews how they focus on pressure game style. Yet Sam at the after game presser this week gave no weight or real comment towards pressure being a key part of the hawks game plan. Makes you wonder.
Hawks needing a monster win vs WC this week and a 40+pt differential against Lions to take P3. Pies good defensively but likely to rest players with no ladder positional change. ๐
@HawkTalkPod Last chance to show they can put up a 4 qtr sustained effort. Anything less and you would be hard pressed for any fan to spend the $$ to fly to Perth for finals. If hawks donโt lose a game, players have 8hrs of hard game time left to play for a premiership cup.
