My Favourite Sporting Team
Hawthorn
Hawks Premierships |
I've barracked for the Hawks all my life, (which was a good choice if you ask me!) The Hawks have won 13 premierships which is the 4th highest in the AFL behind Collingwood(15), Carlton(16) and Essendon(16). But we have won the most in the modern era, (the modern era is from 1990-now). We've won 5 over 25 years, 1991, 2008, 2013, 2014, 2015 with Brisbane, Geelong and West Coast on 3 and Essendon, Collingwood, Sydney, North Melbourne and Adelaide on 2.
I can't actually choose my favourite player but I can tell you my top 3. Firstly, No.33 Cyril Rioli, a small forward who can take a specky on anyone he wants, even the ruck-men who are over 2 meters tall! Secondly, No.28 Paul Puopolo, also a small forward who can jump high, he is super strong and could probably take on a whole team on his own if he wanted to! And last of all the captain No.15 Luke Hodge, he can play anywhere and be a star and a great role model. He steps up in tight situations when no-one else will, which showcases a great leader. |
