AFL 2015: Grand Final - Hawthorn highlights vs. West Coast

[@doaflip7]

Watching these videos of the 3-peat make you realise just how important Brad Hill was to the team. Wasn't always the best kick but his run and carry and ability to score goals was invaluable. In an ageing team, him and Smith were the sparks through midfield that had us match other teams for speed. Billy Hartung shows glimpses but doesn't really compare, and Smith can't really do it by himself. We're saying goodbye to legends now, but through the 3-peat years, I'd almost go as far as to that Brian Lake and Brad Hill were the most important players on our team, in terms of important roles.

[@doaflip7]

Also, David Hale is a bloody legend.

[@michaelmarshall1713]

Funny you say that as I thought Hill no loss he wants to go home and Lake yes has been missed but Hill and his speed were a reason we blitzed the middle. God I hope we can get back to that in 2018?

[@baddazzgarage2953]

Michael Marshall we replaced hilly with impey! He has shown great signs last 2 weeks! And to have another jarmen at the brown and gold is just fantastic! He wont be as magical as darren but i feel he will be as good even better than hilly but was sad to loose him! Cant blame players that want to go home! I would if i played!

[@baddazzgarage2953]

Michael Marshall and if we can keep winning till poppy and cyril return and birchl clarko will get them their again but tigers will be hard to stop!!

[@timtam8771]

Bet he’s loving turning out for the Purple Wanchors every week.

[@realaussiemale567]

One very satisfying thing about watching this, is knowing Cameron Ling had to praise all the Hawthorn plays and the players he’s freely admitted, he doesn’t like.

Needed a reminder of how we good we were and this made my day and made me remember how important Hill and Lake were to this team. I miss the old days. 😢😢😢

[@shannonpincombe8485]

I don't care how many times I see it...Hodgies goal in the 2nd qtr is one of the most audacious and uber confident displays ever in a Grand Final. You can see his body language the moment he received the ball. "Yep, I'll slot this.." 'BANG' Never in doubt. Amazing!!

[@refsmithy]

Watching this in 2021 to remember better times. Only three wins so far this season. Watching three-peat highlights takes away some of the disappointment...

@M nice mate, just wondering when anyone actually asked for these useless bits of information

[@graemeadams5782]

Those marks from Lake, Burgoyne and Smith really set up the game. Hawks were more switched on early and it was the difference.

As I'm watching this, I've just learnt Luke Hodge has announced his retirement at the end of the season. This GF is the cherry on top of his storied career. Thanks for the 16 years and good luck with whatever you choose next. No 15 will be sorely missed.

[@somethinsomethin9979]

His whole 2015 finals series was fantastic lets be honest. And you can never say the kid didn't give his 100%. He could have been a genuine Hawks champion if not for the string of ACL and achillies issues.
