Just an injury-free win, thanks. I know way too many Hawks to be able to cop a loss on Sunday.

Interesting that Fasolo flew back from Sydney to play in last weekends VFL match.

Not a bad performance then collecting 21 diposals and 2 goals.

Hope they give the kid another go this weekend.

P.S-Buckley isn't listed on the CFC injury list so that would suggest he's every chance at returning this week.

Leigh Brown hosts this weeks black and white show, a must watch. :D

Good to see many of the boys that have been out with injury so close to a return also in that video and Maxwell's presser today.

Too Big, Too Strong.

Pretty much everywhere.

Expecting in the order of 10 goal win if the Hawks play well. Otherwise if it gets ugly, who knows?

That is gold in so many ways. Browny is a such a laid back character. Can't wait for him to show his dark side on the park again, though!

Maxy on Sen just now said that there maybe a potential debut this weekend.

Keefe ? Rounds ?

I'd probably put my money on Rounds though either would be fine with me.

Personally if I have one small criticism of our season so far is that we haven't really gone out of our way to blood some new talent.

Keefe for one is a player I'd hoped to have seen at AFL by this stage as he's really our only replacement for Reid or Tarrant should the need arise.

The problem is Keefe was in better form at the start of the year than he is right now. He probably should have got a gig then. His form has tapered off a little since.

I agree but would he be a viable alternative to Goldsack for a few weeks or Maxwell if he needed a rest?

Having him in the side playing alongside our best defenders without the pressure of having to hold down a kp would at the very least expose him to AFL level football and gain him valuable experience.

I'm taking the big picture approach not what's best for this round or next.
