So we didn’t quite Perform the way we hoped, my feeling is that the Hawks had a younger side then the Dogs. Some good signs from some of the young players (including KT and Straton). Don’t forget that you can checkout other photo galleries in the pages above under “Photo”. Enjoy and Go Hawks!
Teams – Squad for NAB Cup Round 2, 2010 vs Bulldogs
After a good performance in Round 1 against the Tigers, w should have a harder task against the Dogs in round 2. The 3 guys likely to come into the side that interest me most are Sam Grimely (Ruckman and sneaky backman option), Josh Gibson after moving to the Hawks from the Roos in the offseason and Carl Peterson, Second year rookie that is impressing many at training and could be a smokey in fantasy terms especially if Hooper and Rioli are missing with injury. Anyway, here is the side:
2. Jarryd Roughead
3. Jordan Lewis
4. Rick Ladson
5. Sam Mitchell
6. Josh Gibson
8. Xavier Ellis
12. Brad Sewell
13. Simon Taylor
14. Grant Birchall
15. Luke Hodge
17. Beau Muston
18. Brent Guerra
19. Jarryd Morton
21. Shane Savage
23. Lance Franklin
25. Ryan Schoenmakers
26. Liam Shiels
27. Stephen Gilham
28. Garry Moss
29. Tom Murphy
30. Campbell Brown
31. Matthew Suckling
35. Sam Grimley
36. Jordan Lisle
39. Ben Stratton
43. Will Sierakowski
45. Jarrod Kayler-Thomson
47. Luke Bruest
48. Carl Peterson.

Squad for NAB Cup Round 1, 2010
The boys will be having an Open Training tomorrow morning before heading out to Tassie to take on the Tigers in the opening Round of the NAB Cup. Here is the Squad:
2 Jarryd Roughead
3 Jordan Lewis
4 Rick Ladson
5 Sam Mitchell
6 Josh Gibson
8 Xavier Ellis
12 Brad Sewell
13 Simon Taylor
14 Grant Birchall
15 Luke Hodge
16 Beau Dowler
17 Beau Muston
18 Brent Guerra
19 Jarryd Morton
21 Shane Savage
23 Lance Franklin
25 Ryan Schoenmakers
26 Liam Shiels
27 Stephen Gilham
28 Garry Moss
30 Campbell Brown
31 Matthew Suckling
36 Jordan Lisle
39 Ben Stratton
42 Wayde Skipper
43 Will Sierakowski
45 Jarrod Kayler-Thomson
47 Luke Breust
The boys I am most looking forward to seeing are:
- Josh Gibson – One of the two prize recruits (along with Shaun Burgoyne). How goes Gibson might be how goes the Hawks. Brad Sewell claimed that he will be playing Full Back this year. May not actually play.
- Shane Savage – Like what he has done both late last year and in the last two training sessions I have been too. Could be a Smokey to make the Round 1 side v Melbourne
- The Cobbler (Ryan Schoenmakers) – One of the players with the most excitement around him this year from the Hawks faithful. With Croad’s retirement, big things are hoped from him. Would be suprised to see him wear the 24 by the start of 2011.
- Liam Shiels – Another Popular player. Has finished school and word is that he is killing it on the track, leading all the runs. With his outstanding fitness, could find himself as the Hawks number 1 tagger this year.
- Matthew Suckling – Another fan fav for his work at Box Hill last year. Great kick and that is something that the Hawks coaches love.
- Wade Skipper – Sneaky chance for round 1 with the burns to Brent Renouf. I have a strange feeling that Clarko is a big rap for the mobile ruckman and he should be on all DreamTeam and SuperCoach Benches!
- Rick Ladson – Back from injury and another Fantasy hot item. Has been talk that he is injured but has looked good in the last few weeks.
