Last night saw a very high-quality game between the Hawks and Dees.
The Dees got away to a flyer that was ultimately the margin by the end of the game but the Hawks showed some great chops to get back into thew game and have it on a knife's edge at 3/4 time.
Personally, I thought the Hawks defense would struggle with missing key defenders in Everist and Eardley but with the Melbourne ruck going down and forcing Gillard from defense and then Harris from attack into 1st ruck duties, the temporary instability for the Dees allowed the Hawks to dominate inside forward 50 through Dupuy/McDonagh (4 goals 2 and 11 marks between them) and then Richardson intercepting at will (11).
In the end the Dees were the better team and deserved the win and look like they might be able to push North Melbourne to the end as per the Prelim last season.
Today we look at:
- Hawks Going Too Slow Inside Forward 50 x 2
- Hawks Messing Up the Number Advantage x 2
- Dees Mised Handball
- Poor Hawks Crumbing Formation
- Hore Leaks Out
- McNamara Nails Space Creation
