Everyone is saying Hawthorn can beat Geelong, then which team can beat Hawthorn?

Which team can beat Hawthorn in 2008?
obviously the cats, maybe the doggies, kanga's next time, tiges got close and will be better next time round 20, hopefully, crows next time?, who kows, footies a funny game, things can change quickly with a few injuries here and there.
Reply:On current form I think the Doggies are in with a chance after seeing them play the Swanees at the weekend. It depends what happens as the season wears on (injuries etc.) but the teams I would give a rough chance to beat the Hawks would be Geelong of course and just maybe Adelaide, Port Adelaide but on current form I am thinking it will be Hawks v. Cats in the Grand Final but that's on current form. My leaning is that the Hawks will win the Grand Final and be a more worthy opponent that Port Adelaide last year - but we must keep an eye on both South Australian teams and a lot of improvement left in both of them. Hey the Swanees might fluke it too????????
Reply:It think it might be someone who everybody least expects. I am hoping that Essendon will have their injured players back and that Lucas will stick it to them but i think I am being too far fetched with that idea!





Have the Demons played them yet? They took it up to Geelong and certainly did well against Freo. I think that it doesn't always boil down to where you are on the ladder but how well certain players play on their opponants and I think this is why some teams who don't win much can play exceptionally well against tougher teams.
Reply:one of the things that i love about our great game is anyone can beat anyone if 1 side brings it sh-t game and the other brings it good game.......but this year these 2 sides are a step up to the rest....

Melbourne beat Fremantle the other day %26amp; Freo had gone within one point of Geelong the week before.





Football does not always go to plan or predictions.
Reply:i reckon richmond, they are playing so well now, maybe the dogs not too sure about them but they havnt lost a game so far. maybe collingwood nxt time they play them. only if they actually start playing this time.
Reply:I actually think Geelongs defense can shut Hawks Forwards down and kick a big score to win against Hawks easily..





Hawks will also loose to Swans, they always have a hard time against em!
Reply:Hawthorn and Geeelong will both remain un beaten until they play off against each other





Then Hawks will win by less than 6 points
Reply:Carlton! Woohoo!
Reply:Geelong





Bulldogs
Reply:Well everybody will be wrong then won't they because Hawks may look good but they will get rolled at the end.
Reply:I think the Bulldogs can - they have equivalent desire and less ability to believe their own PR!
Reply:when it comes down to the finals PORT POWER, will bee the team who beats all.
