such a poor effort by the boys yesterday, hawks to experienced. i am proud on the improvements we made this year though from 9th to a grand final i cant complain.
+Spaced92 Actually there is no rule against slapping the ball forward with an open hand anyway. Otherwise rucks would be penalised every time they taped the ball to the mids.
+Badeggs Matty He lost contact with the ball and then punched it forward. If he wasn't being tackled after plenty of prior opportunity the umpire would have let it slide.

What a team the mighty hawks are Back to back to back its remarkable i mean with the salary cap the trades and how the afl is now days teams aren't meant to make it too 3 straight grand finals well the hawks have done it they've made 4 straight and won 3 in a row we are a remarkable team and we're gonna be very hard to beat next year again! Well done Hawthorn #3peaters
+ELDERPALADIN98 Well each teams have their down hill period but Hawthorns premiership window would be open for another 2 years at max. and they'll be finals team still for a long time. And none of those teams will be able to do what the hawks have done 4 flags in 8 years back to back to back premierships!
+Dimitri Marras You are forgetting 2 massive things.........with the 2 new teams coming in and the compromised drafts that lasted for about 5 years it has actually been easier for the top teams to stay at the top and consequently it's been harder for the bottom teams to improve with almost all the best young talent over those compromised drafts going to Gold Coast & GWS. Then you add in free agency where let's face it good players wanting to leave weaker teams only do it for 2 reasons - a massive pay increase or to seek team success. The Hawks have been a major beneficiary of free agency. Any 3peat is a great thing but it's definitely been easier to do now than say when the Brisbane Lions did it, when there was no free agency and no compromised drafts preceding their success.
ELDERPALADIN98 Wait so Brisbanes three peat was more difficult? Even though they were significantly helped by the AFL and got heaps of trades and a great coach and good drafts lmfao your just another typical by stander that can't accept how great this Hawthorn side is. and our players are ageing savagely? Hmm explains why our ''savagely ageing'' players have been getting better as the years go by Mitchells last 3 seasons have arguably been his best, Another thing our ageing players have been the stand outs in the big finals. Hodge 2 best games have arguably been the 2014 and 2015 grand final. Just wait and see next year as the Hawthorn domination rolls on. and i'll tell you another thing if Hawthorn does make the Grand Final next year they will not lose it.
+Dimitri Marras " Wait so Brisbanes three peat was more difficult? Even though they were significantly helped by the AFL and got heaps of trades and a great coach and good drafts lmfao ". Care to explain yourself ? In particular, explain how they were helped by the AFL as one could argue the AFL cost them a premiership in 2004. Leigh Matthews and Jonathon Brown certainly believe so. They were in receipt of some $300,000 in their Salary Cap (Sydney Swans were getting a million). This was designed to relieve the inequalities related with teams in traditional non football states retaining players as the majority of their lists are sourced from outside of their state. This inequality has been beautifully illustrated in the last few years when the Lions lost players such as Yeo, Docherty, Mitch Clark, Aish, Redden , Jared Polec etc all citing homesickness. Of course the silence on this has been deafening. Are you insinuating the AFL got Leigh Matthews to Brisbane ? If you are not then what's your point ? They got a measly 2 players from the Fitzroy merger who would go on and become premiership players, young first year player Chris Johnson and the older Martin Pike (ex Melbourne/North Melbourne), who nobody was prepared to take on. It was to prove a masterful stroke to take the risk with him as he ended up a 4 time premiership player. Alastair Lynch was traded from Fitzroy 2 years earlier on his controversial 10 year contract but suffered injury and then chronic fatigue syndrome that lasted until 1999, possibly missing his best football years. What good draft picks did they get that they didn't deserve ? It should be remembered they finished on the bottom in 1998. They drafted Des Headland with No.1 pick that year (they also lost him due to homesickness when he went to Freo) and In the years preceding that they were good enough to unearth players such as Leppitsch, Black, Bradshaw, Lappin and Luke Power through the draft. Other clubs had the opportunity to draft them. All became great players. They drafted Chris Scott using Collingwood's Pick 12 in the 1993 Draft that they received for none other than all time great and future Brownlow Medallist and Collingwood captain Nathan Buckley. They also got an old Craig Starcevich as part of that deal but he was retired prior to their premiership years.One could easily argue Collingwood were the major beneficiary of that trade. Craig McRae came in the Pre Season Draft. They also drafted Norm Smith Medallist Shaun Hart years earlier (pick 33 1989) along with troubled teen Darryl White, who they persevered with despite his frequent bouts of homesickness. Brad Scott was traded by Hawthorn to the Lions. They unearthed ruckmen Beau McDonald (73rd pick 1997 Draft) and Clark Keating (ex Surfers Paradise/Lions U/19 1992). They got J.Brown by way of father/son and they already had young QLDers such as Voss, Akermanis, Ashcroft & Copeland (Rookie Draft). They traded Jarrod Molloy to Collingwood to get Mal Michael in return. The AFL changed the rules of the Draft so they couldn't get the young QLD local Nick Riewoldt, who became an immediate star at StKilda. Imagine Buckley AND Riewoldt in those Lions premiership teams. The AFL also duped the Lions in 2004 when they forced them to play a home Preliminary Final away at the MCG (they earned the right for a home Prelim after finishing 2nd and winning all finals) and then scheduled it on Saturday night (which meant flying back to Brisbane Sunday) and allowed Port Power to play at home on the Friday night, effectively giving Port a 2 day advantage leading into the biggest game of the season. It's no surprise the Lions faded in that Grand Final.......So where is that significant help, heaps of trades, good drafts and great coach that the Lions received from the AFL over and above what all other clubs received ? I am not saying for 1 minute this current Hawthorn team is not a great team as it is however to say the great Brisbane Lions team of 2001 - 02 - 03 - 04 had it easier due to all this help they received from the AFL is factually incorrect for the reasons I have outlined above.
Yet another disappointing Grand Final. Can the next team to play Hawthorn in the GF please step up your game? Hawks are worthy winners, no doubts there, but at least make a contest of it FFS. I stopped watching at 3 quarter time because of how boring it was.
Karen Devine Teams play in Grand Finals to win, yes? Apart from the first 2 minutes, when did it ever look like the Eagles were going to win? I'm not saying that I'm the single most important person to be appeased, but you're delusional if you think that the AFL isn't now about entertainment every bit as it is about the actual sport. All I'm saying is that the WCE, from both a sporting AND entertainment perspective, let everyone down on Saturday.
Karen Devine If you can't see how the players, AFL, and the broadcasters are all related then that's your problem. And if finding what's meant to be the most anticipated and hotly-contested AFL game all season to be yet another tensionless and one-sided display of Hawthorn making their opponent look like a state-league team makes me a sook then, fine, I'm happy to be called a sook. You'll find that I'm nowhere near the only one that thinks this, though, and even some devout Hawks supporters I was sitting and watching the game with said they lost interest after half time. But don't worry I'll tell them you think that they're sooks as well.
+trinsicity Why do you follow this game then? Stop following it because you are going to be very disappointed with years to come. All through AFL history teams have been thrashed in grand finals. The grand final doesn't have to be close for it to be a entertaining game. Watching good tough footy with unbelievable skills on display is what it is all about.
Badeggs Matty You basically defeated your own point... "Watching good tough footy with unbelievable skills on display is what it is all about." ...Last weekend I only saw one team play good tough footy with their skills on display. The other team curled up into a corner and got made into their WAFL equivalent. Did you watch the NRL grand final the day after? Even if you don't normally follow the NRL I'd strongly suggest at least checking out a highlights reel. It delivered in every way the AFL one failed to do. The two teams were evenly matched the whole way through, to the point where there was a draw in the dying seconds of the match, and then the end result was only decided by a single point in time-on. Regardless of which team won, it was entertaining, suspenseful, and both teams threw their absolute best at each other from start to finish, which is how a grand final should be. Like in 2005's GF - West Coast lost that one as well but it was still a great game to watch. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect the two best teams of the year to throw their best games at each other and have it be a strongly-contested fairly-even match.
+Karen Devine Oh no all your precious comments... It's as if you never existed... The tragedy!! How about actually contributing to CZcams in a positive way instead of sifting through comments sections looking to get butthurt over other people's opinions and start meaningless arguments? Think about that next time you write something because I'm done with you. You'll find yourself blocked next time.
in the first week, the West Coast Eagles massacred the Hawthorn! but in the game but important of the year the grand finale, the hawks, returned the slaughter and have shown they are great, summarizing the biggest football club won!
+crazychips123 technically they didnt, in 1924 they brought in a new stupid system called the argus system. In 1929 the pies lost to the tigers in the semi final, then they were given a weeks rest and a pass straight into the grand final somehow! They end up winning that and they ended up naming the semi final the pre lim. following year the pies beat the tigers in the semi final but then lose the grand final to the cats but because the argus system had a rule which if the minor premiers didn't win the grand final they would repeat it the following week, which collingwood bounced back and won so really they didn't win a genuine 4 in a row just thought id share that
why carnt the afl clock be extended to all afl matches that end in a """draw""" the next team that wins a point or a goal is the official winner just by extending time untill one team ends up kicking the devider? "draw" matches are frustrating wouldnt it be better just to extend the time untill theres a final score? makes sense......
Brisbanes was a better 3 peat in a stronger competition.Hawthorn got Roughead for free from a priority pick in 04 when just 3 years earlier they made the prelim, go figure. No wonder the AFL changed the priority pick rules.
+Braad probably aha but I think the nerves got to him more than anyone, he never would've fumbled that ball, any other day he would've nailed that mark. Everything kept going Hawks way though ball always bounced in their favour. Whenever the Eagles try to clear the ball a Hawks player was on the end of it. It was so hard to watch
Hawthorn can't win a GF if the other team shows up. The last time a team showed up for the GF was 2012 where Sydney did the hawks in a thriller. 2013 Fremantle: Freo didn't show up. 2014 Sydney: Sydney didn't show up. 2015 WCE: Well you know what happened. My point is is that this year (2016) the top 8 is so close that without the right umpires, they won't be able to win. Adelaide, Sydney, the dogs and GWS are all contenders along with the hawks. Right now it looks like the crows will be Premiers due to form. And may i remind you what GWS did to hawthorn. TO ALL HAWKS SUPPORTERS: HAVE FUN IN THE FINALS
Hahah mate, back then it was the “16 team comp” before GWS and the Suns joined the comp, hawks were the first to do since they joined hense the “18 team comp”
@@Flamingbro69 Yea home grand final doesn't do much because it's usually an even crowd. And the atmosphere is just the same for every player. on another note congrats on that 2012 grand final i was disappointed we lost but was to a deserving team. At least we avenged ourselves.
Love this argument. Conversely you could argue that it made it easier for other clubs to win, like Geel, Coll, St Kilda, WC, Syd, Freo too - so why didn't they win 3 in a row? Coz they weren't good enough. Or you could argue Hawthorn were as disadvantaged as everybody else becasue they couldn't trade for those high draft choices as they went to the foundation sides... Or we could go on for ever...but nothing takes away the flags...and that really gives you the shits doesn't it? Love it!!!
Everyone tries to find ways to diss us because we've averaged less than 5 years per flag over the last 50 years. Most clubs are lucky to have more than two flags in that time.
The tw teams are my least favorite but Eagles played terribly and hawks didn't even try. They still both are bad in my opinion. as in I don't like them
plus hawthorn didnt even try because cause of how bad eagles played. i think it was being nervous. Btw congrats for twenty years of footy and 5 grand finals. AFL is amazing
+Red Fox You don't know anything about footy. Hawthorn put everything into this game and their pressure was first class, they tore apart an already nervous group of young Eagles by pressuring them and getting into heir heads
Let's be honest, this competition is a joke. A Grand Final gets played on a teams home ground. Every decent out of contracted player wants to go to Hawthorn. Let's be honest, their brand of footy is boring to watch, might as well go to a primary school and watch a game of keepings off
Yeah, but West Coast earned their home ground advantage in their first two finals by finishing top 2. Hawthorn finished 3rd and scraped into the GF against Freo. You tell me which team deserved the home ground advantage more.
+Femi Balogun You clearly don't understand sport too well. They are some of the most skilful & fittest athletes on the planet. Elite midfielders run 25 - 30km a game (2 hours) and about 80% of that is sprinting. Can also get hit from 360 degrees. AFL football players will do anything to appear unhurt when they are. Football/Soccer players will do anything to appear hurt when they are not. Just about sums it up.
It takes skills out of Rugby, Soccer, Hockey and Basketball and they have to be used consistently throughout the game. Best game in the world and one of the toughest to play.

Need to re upload with schoeys speccy!
Hawthorn for the 2023 Premiership 🤎💛
Nice joke maybe top 14 if lucky enjoy the wooden spoon 😂
Hawks for the 24 prem
why carnt the afl clock be extended to all afl matches that end in a """draw""" the next team that wins a point or a goal is the official winner just by extending time untill one team ends up kicking the devider? "draw" matches are frustrating wouldnt it be better just to extend the time untill theres a final score? makes sense......
Good to see the west toast peegles getting smashed in a grand final
Gotta love all the salty supporters. Its not our fault our team was op
People are mad at Hawks just because they won't 3 GF in a row, Haters gonna hate
Carlton would've made this game more interesting
+Aza2000 1 They really wouldn't have. Last time Carlton and Hawks clashed Carlton lost by over 100 points.
Hopefully you knew I was being sarcastic. It was meant to make eagles fans feel bad about themselves
Aza2000 1 The GF was enough punishment lol
KWB-krib I know, as a Fremantle supporter, this hilarious punishment
These are the only good games (when hawthorn wins)
"Remarkable 3peeters" Eagles probably hate the Hawks taught them how to play in grand finals on 2 occasions. 😂
The Eagles lost really badly
Brisbanes was a better 3 peat in a stronger competition.Hawthorn got Roughead for free from a priority pick in 04 when just 3 years earlier they made the prelim, go figure. No wonder the AFL changed the priority pick rules.
Very salty Allan, two comments here having a crack.

#fourthorn
I don't like hawthorn but that pun made my day :)
+Gearz Bandi Surprised you didn't hear it prior to that xD
uhh nice try
Packetofcigets17 no one likes us...
Eagles should have swapped Jack Darling for Kate Ceberano
+herbie0408 then they definently would of won
+Braad probably aha but I think the nerves got to him more than anyone, he never would've fumbled that ball, any other day he would've nailed that mark. Everything kept going Hawks way though ball always bounced in their favour. Whenever the Eagles try to clear the ball a Hawks player was on the end of it. It was so hard to watch
+ReeceAndLaurenVlogs Her ample chest would have swallowed that mark in the 3rd quarter
They're not the first team to get 3 in a row. Didn't Brisbane Lions get it 01-03?
It was a 16 team competition then :)
M8... That makes sense
And Melbourne from 1955-1957
Luke Stubbs but hawthorn did it in an 18 team competition. Melbourne did it when there was like 10 teams
The Stainers !!
I'm an Eagles supporter hawks are just to good
I am eagles fan and i say Hawks=Cancer!!
+TheACGamer lolol i admit we are done we wont win another one but you dont have to be so butthurt that we are cancer lol
+Buthelezi Surfer I kept supported the Eagles till the last minute then I just went to take a shower and rip
yay go hawthorn
Better then gws
gohawksforlife!!!
fourthorn
look like corrupt umpiring for hawks the whole finals series
Lol so many tantrums about hawks winning #butthurt
go hawks
What is this game...? I'm from the United Kingdom.. Haven't got a clue what this is?
the australian football league
#4peat????????
Hawthorn can't win a GF if the other team shows up. The last time a team showed up for the GF was 2012 where Sydney did the hawks in a thriller. 2013 Fremantle: Freo didn't show up. 2014 Sydney: Sydney didn't show up. 2015 WCE: Well you know what happened. My point is is that this year (2016) the top 8 is so close that without the right umpires, they won't be able to win. Adelaide, Sydney, the dogs and GWS are all contenders along with the hawks. Right now it looks like the crows will be Premiers due to form. And may i remind you what GWS did to hawthorn. TO ALL HAWKS SUPPORTERS: HAVE FUN IN THE FINALS
Max Footer ever considered that maybe we were the better team and that's why we won, instead of 'the other team didn't show up'
Hey
FREE KICK - Hawthorn
Ft 61-107
8:12 I thought Brisbane went three peet on 2001-2001-2003
Hahah mate, back then it was the “16 team comp” before GWS and the Suns joined the comp, hawks were the first to do since they joined hense the “18 team comp”
1:41 Out of bounds !
Cough cough freekick hawthorn
Go West coast eagles im sad that they lost and i cant believe hawthorn won their three peat. WEST coast eagles are going to be priemers in 2016.
C'mon! I've gone for the west coast, I don't like hawthorn
Anybody else stop watching at half time because it was boring?
Me but I kept on going
Tainted premierships
2013* 2014* 2015*
Didn’t earn the right the play the game on their home ground
salty
@@filthyproductions7781 Exactly. Plus, Hawthorn lost to Sydney with Home Ground Advantage in the 2012 Grand Final, at the MCG of Course
@@Flamingbro69 Yea home grand final doesn't do much because it's usually an even crowd. And the atmosphere is just the same for every player.
on another note congrats on that 2012 grand final i was disappointed we lost but was to a deserving team. At least we avenged ourselves.
They only won 3 in a row because the competition was at its weakest for the last 30 years.Introduction of GC & GWS weakened the comp
Love this argument. Conversely you could argue that it made it easier for other clubs to win, like Geel, Coll, St Kilda, WC, Syd, Freo too - so why didn't they win 3 in a row? Coz they weren't good enough.
Or you could argue Hawthorn were as disadvantaged as everybody else becasue they couldn't trade for those high draft choices as they went to the foundation sides...
Or we could go on for ever...but nothing takes away the flags...and that really gives you the shits doesn't it? Love it!!!
Everyone tries to find ways to diss us because we've averaged less than 5 years per flag over the last 50 years. Most clubs are lucky to have more than two flags in that time.

This is one of the most bland/boring Grand Finals that I ever sat and watched
The tw teams are my least favorite but Eagles played terribly and hawks didn't even try. They still both are bad in my opinion. as in I don't like them
THEY ARE BAD TO ME BECAUSE I DONT LIKE THEM
plus hawthorn didnt even try because cause of how bad eagles played. i think it was being nervous. Btw congrats for twenty years of footy and 5 grand finals. AFL is amazing
+Red Fox You don't know anything about footy. Hawthorn put everything into this game and their pressure was first class, they tore apart an already nervous group of young Eagles by pressuring them and getting into heir heads
Crap match to watch... I almost fell asleep!!!!!!
meh nrl is better
First
was a pretty lame game
Let's be honest, this competition is a joke. A Grand Final gets played on a teams home ground. Every decent out of contracted player wants to go to Hawthorn. Let's be honest, their brand of footy is boring to watch, might as well go to a primary school and watch a game of keepings off
+Epic Well one objective of the game IS maintaining possession.
Well if it wasn't for West coasts home ground advantage they wouldn't have even made the grand final
Hawthorn's boring to watch? Try watching Freo play
Yeah, but West Coast earned their home ground advantage in their first two finals by finishing top 2. Hawthorn finished 3rd and scraped into the GF against Freo. You tell me which team deserved the home ground advantage more.
***** Freo? The team that only finished above Essendon and Brisbane?
What is this. this ain't no sport. Guys u want to watch or play real sport try Basketball greatest sport in the world bar non not this.
+Mahir Kamal That's just your opinion buddy. I love basketball and this sport isn't for everyone but saying it's not a real sport is just stupid.
I love both sports. Go Warriors!
what... no one asked
what kind of weird game is this? its like a mixed between rugby and football. ridiculous sport
+Femi Balogun You clearly don't understand sport too well. They are some of the most skilful & fittest athletes on the planet. Elite midfielders run 25 - 30km a game (2 hours) and about 80% of that is sprinting. Can also get hit from 360 degrees. AFL football players will do anything to appear unhurt when they are. Football/Soccer players will do anything to appear hurt when they are not. Just about sums it up.
It takes skills out of Rugby, Soccer, Hockey and Basketball and they have to be used consistently throughout the game. Best game in the world and one of the toughest to play.
+Femi Balogun That was a ridiculous comment, from a ridiculous person with no understanding about how the best sport in the world plays
+KWB-krib i could see the soccer and rugby, but there is no hockey or basketball skill in this. Get real, its soccer with hands.
@@therealvizualassassin no basketball? if you actually bothered to learn about it maybe you would know it takes a lot of basketball skills.
AFL is so good when only one team is winning. Makes the season so exciting to watch! Not
Frustrating to watch. SO wasteful when we had the momentum, few gifts to Hawthorn by the umps, and it's all over.
A few gifts? Ha ha ha ha, just didn't turn up on the day so find an excuse..
