Hawthorn still has a handful of players who can lift at the critical moments but I don't think they have enough of them anymore, not enough to cover for the bottom end of the teams they are putting out on the paddock at the moment.
    I hope you are right Liz - I have a similar view on their form this year, but how many close ones have they managed to fall over the line in. They just keep doing it, and it'll still take an almighty effort to put the stake through their heart in the finals series.

    Well, with them having the luxury of 21 men on the field at all times.........yes, you make a good point!

    Yes, missing the obvious throw by Whitecross was a big turning point.
    Agreed. That was a clear thrown, even by Hawthorn standards.
