    I agree with the bad kicking, and a score of 6-6 instead of 3-9 at qtr time and its game over!!

    Having said that, blow the whistle for a ball up with a bit over 2 mins on the clock instead of awarding a free kick for holding the ball, and its a contest deep in Ports 50 instead of Hawthorn having possession and being able to wind down the clock.

    Two incorrect disposal free kicks that Stevic absolutely guessed, because he was on the wrong side of the play also went against Port at crucial times in the last qtr. Yes they didn't result in Hawthorn goals, but certainly relieved the pressure that Hawthorn were under.

    He is an absolute cheat. I'd rather razor Ray.

    Interesting indeed. It's a nice change of pace for Collingwood to think we were hard done by, but i guess that was before we used the COLA to pick up tippett and buddy so now we're just cheats

    Oh dear. The 2012 GF had woeful umpiring and if last week is anything to go by, Stevic is still very much in love with the Hawks. I am worried.

    Don't worry - the 23 players of Hawthorn still won't be able to beat the 22 warriors in red and White come Saturday!

    What did I tell you. This @@@@@ set the scene in the first 20 mins. Every 50/50 went their way. Eased hawthorn into the game.

    When you go in harder, quicker, and with more intent, you tend to get those 50/50 calls.

    Can't blame the umps on what happened today.

    Yep agree that the umpires weren't to blame. Although if you listened to the hawks supporters every free kick to us wasn't there!
