Hawthorn will mark their anniversary a little more than 100 years to the day since first lining up in the VFL against Richmond on May 2 And Yze has not forgotten the last time the two sides faced off in a significant milestone encounter A record crowd of more than 92,000 was on hand in June last year when Dustin Martin played his 300th game and the Tigers' legend kicked the first goal But Hawthorn were comfortable 48-point winners over the eventual wooden spooners as they marched towards a finals appearance who was a premiership-winning assistant coach with Hawthorn under Alastair Clarkson "In Dusty's 300th we played against the Hawks and they spoiled the party that day so it might be a bit of payback (this week)."

Photo: Jonathan Di Maggio/AAP PHOTOSConor Nash must serve a four-game ban for striking Geelong's Gryan Miers after Hawthorn unsuccessfully tried to downgrade his sentence at the AFL Tribunal All articles from our websiteThe digital version of Today's PaperBreaking news alerts direct to your inboxAll articles from the other regional websites in your areaContinueA "genuinely remorseful and apologetic" Nash did not dispute the severity or impact of the incident at the hearing on Wednesday night It means the midfielder will miss Hawthorn's games against West Coast Nash had been sent straight to the tribunal after collecting Miers with a high swinging arm in the Cats' seven-point win on Easter Monday Miers was subbed out immediately and will miss at least Sunday's clash with Carlton at the MCG after entering the 12-day concussion protocols The incident was assessed as careless conduct Hawthorn argued the incident only warranted a three-week suspension given Nash had pleaded guilty at the earliest available time The club also made clear Nash hadn't used his fist to create excessive force against Miers and that he possessed an "unblemished tribunal record" in the same vein as AFL great and fellow Irishman Jim Stynes that Nash had acted with severe force and a significant degree of carelessness Tribunal chair Jeff Gleeson KC added Nash was aware of Miers given he had his arm on the opposition player's back "We have some difficulty in understanding how Mr Nash got it so wrong here," Gleeson said "We accept that he was not intending to strike Miers to the head but he should have known that a forceful swing of an arm at head height may well result in such a strike." Nash had presented the tribunal a text message he sent to Miers in the days after the match I just want to check in on how you've pulled up today Hopefully not too bad and can get back on track soon," the message said Gryan Miers had to be helped from the ground after the strike by Conor Nash (Daniel Pockett/AAP PHOTOS)"I'm also reaching out to let you know that there really wasn't any malice to that hit "I tried to play the ball and I just got it badly wrong I do try to play the game with a physical presence but not in that spirit and just want you to know that very sorry for what's happened and all the circus around it." The AFL argued Nash warranted a four-week ban because he had a duty of care to a "vulnerable" Miers and that the contact was made to the Geelong player's head Miers looked to be concussed before he hit the ground and staggered off the field with the help of medical staff Parallels were drawn with Fremantle player Patrick Voss and Hawthorn teammate Jack Scrimshaw's respective three-match suspensions handed down earlier in the season But the AFL argued the cases were not similar given there was no immediate concern of concussions to the victim players during the incidents Richmond player Nick Vlastuin suffered a broken nose after being struck by Voss and Essendon defender Jordan Ridley played out the rest of the second quarter after his incident with Scrimshaw Ridley was eventually substituted out of the match at half-time with a concussion This is probably not the page you’re looking for Hawthorn legend Michael Tuck turns 70 this weekend Tuck was born on 24 June 1953 and played his first game as an 18-year-old in May 1972 and his last as a 38-year-old in the 1991 Grand Final he had the complete set of records for most VFL-AFL games (426) most Grand Finals (11) and most Premierships (7) Tuck had a winning percentage of 71 per cent one draw and just 123 defeats in his 426 games He captained Hawthorn for six seasons from 1986 to 1991 Luke Breust has become just the third Hawk to kick at least 20 goals in 12 different seasons Breust has reached the milestone in every season from his debut in 2011 until now Leigh Matthews kicked at least 20 goals in an incredible 16 seasons Jason Dunstall reached 20 in all 14 of his seasons from 1985 to 1998 Breust has now moved ahead of John Peck and Michael Moncrieff who both managed to reach 20 goals in 11 of their 13 seasons This Sunday’s game at Carrara will be the first time Hawthorn and Gold Coast have played at either’s main home ground since 2017 the clubs have met at University of Tasmania Stadium twice and once each at Docklands It will be just Hawthorn’s fourth game at Carrara since the Suns joined the competition in 2011 with the Hawks coming away victorious in 2011 and 2014 but suffering a heavy defeat in 2017 Hawthorn has played 10 times at the venue for a 6-4 record having a 4-2 record against Brisbane and losing to St Kilda there in 2020 Hawthorn won its first eight games against Gold Coast which was a better starting record than against any other club when the Hawks lost to the Suns by 86 points at Carrara in Round 3 and then suffered another defeat by 16 points at the MCG in Round 12 of the same season Hawthorn then won the next three against the Suns The Hawks bounced back to win by seven points at University of Tasmania Stadium in Round 21 last season The overall record between the clubs is currently 12-4 in Hawthorn’s favour The crowd of 35,869 at the MCG in Round 13 was the second biggest ever for a game between Hawthorn and Brisbane The only larger attendance was 39,007 at the MCG in 2007 Round 15 has historically been one of Hawthorn’s best rounds Hawthorn’s Round 15 return was remarkably good The Hawks most recent Round 15 win was against GWS in 2021 Hawthorn recorded a solid 46-point win against Fitzroy – 15.20.110 to 9.10.64 – after leading by only a point at half-time Jason Dunstall kicked five goals (all in the second half) and Ben Allan contributed three with other good players including Darren Jarman the VFL Park surface was in very poor condition for Hawthorn’s Round 15 clash with Footscray scores were level at both quarter and half time but a dominant 6.3 to 2.2 third quarter set up a 29-point Hawthorn win – 13.11.89 to 9.6.60 Ken Judge kicked four goals and those named in the best included Rodney Eade Hawthorn retained top position on the ladder by thrashing South Melbourne at the Lakeside Oval by 60 points – 15.15.105 to 6.9.45 which took him 13 goals clear at the top of the VFL goalkicking Others named in the best were Graham Arthur the Hawks recorded just their third win for the season defeating South Melbourne at the Lakeside Oval by eight points – 9.8.62 to 7.12.54 The Sporting Globe attributed the win to ‘brilliant persistence Bill Collins and Max Jose all kicked two goals Collins doing so after only coming on at three quarter-time Roy Simmonds and Graham Peck headed the list of best players Hawthorn defeated South Melbourne at Glenferrie by 32 points – 13.10.88 to 7.14.56 – to keep the chances of appearing in a first VFL Finals series very much alive Lou Salvas and Ken Slater both kicked three goals Jarryd Roughead’s six goals against Gold Coast in his final game in 2019 is the record for Hawthorn against the Suns surpassing the bags of five kicked by Luke Breust (2011) Lance Franklin (2013) and Jack Gunston (2014 The best individual return for a Hawthorn player in Round 15 is 12 goals recorded by Peter Hudson in a 23-point win against eventual Grand Final opponent St Kilda at

past and present and stand together with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders of today and tomorrow South Melbourne Football Club advertised for women who'd be keen to play a game at the Swans' Lake Oval headquarters the next month their efforts would raise money for the Red Cross 'Food for Britain' appeal that was delivering desperately needed resources for a ravaged England which was still recovering from World War II and was now at the mercy of catastrophic floods women's football had been played only sporadically around the country over the previous 30 years such were the prevailing community attitudes  So prospective female footballers jumped at this rare opportunity to play on a League ground The Swans were inundated with phone calls and letters from hundreds of women the South Melbourne Record newspaper noted It was deemed noteworthy that some applicants were married women South Melbourne official Frank Hay told The Herald: "I had enough (applicants) to start a women's competition "Now there's an idea – and it should have only been reinforced by what followed” With so many female players offering their services the Swans discarded their initial plan to stage a single game – instead South Melbourne scheduled the event for a Sunday – July 6 1947 – and enlisted three other clubs – St Kilda Carlton and Footscray along with the Swans The organisers were also overwhelmed by the community response to the event which attracted a "tremendous" estimated crowd of 25,000  Only one men's game drew more spectators that season and that was a bitter showdown between 1945 'Bloodbath' Grand Final adversaries South Melbourne and Carlton the Swans gained bragging rights over their "lakeside rivals" St Kilda in the first game with a 7.4 (46) to 1.1 (7) victory  Footscray also won easily against Carlton – 2.6 (18) to nil – to advance to the final against South Melbourne which the papers said was played at a surprisingly high standard given the limited preparation "thousands of cheering spectators swarmed onto the ground in a wild rush to congratulate the women" All in attendance deserved congratulations given they added to the Food for Britain appeal coffers by £650  No wonder it was trumpeted as a "splendid return" Hawthorn’s first Women’s Football Team - 1947  The women’s round-robin at South Melbourne was to inspire other similar matches associated with VFL/AFL clubs during 1947 Mr Charles Behrendt announced that a Women’s Football Cup would be presented for competition between a Hawthorn women’s football team and teams

We know of one such game when two teams coached by Leigh Matthews and Peter Knights played an exhibition match during Family Day during the early 1980s and there is a story that the Hawthorn Girls played the Geelong Girls in 1963 umpired by the 1961 Premiership player Hawthorn will celebrate the anniversary of its 1983 premiership next month Hawthorn have dipped their toes into the NBL forming a strategic partnership with expansion side South East Melbourne Phoenix The Hawks will provide the NBL side with financial and  human services and IT management while also helping deliver the Phoenix’s strategic plan ahead of their entry into the NBL next season The Hawks are not taking an ownership stake in the Phoenix, who announced their name and colours earlier this month. The partnership could also help the Phoenix as they set-up and grow their membership, community and other programs with the Hawks having extensive expertise in all parts of sports management. In the past two years the Hawks and several other AFL clubs have looked into taking ownership of an NBL franchise with the Hawks turning down the opportunity before the Phoenix’s licence was awarded to US entrepreneur Romie Chaudhari, a co-owner of English Championship club Swansea City. Set to rise: the South East Melbourne Phoenix. “Hawthorn is a model sports club, they have a proven track record, both on and off the field, and they have set a standard we look to build into our fabric here with the Phoenix family,” Chaudhari said. Phoenix general manager Tommy Greer praised the partnership as a key to helping establish the new franchise. “Hawthorn is one of the biggest sporting clubs in Australia,” Greer said. “It has enjoyed tremendous success on and off the field and has established deep roots across South East Melbourne where it has a huge following. “We believe this strategic partnership will deliver significant benefits for both clubs but also the people of South East Melbourne who stand to be the big winners from greater investment in the region.” Hawks chief executive Justin Reeves said his club’s roots in South East Melbourne made for a clear connection with the Phoenix. “The NBL is experiencing fantastic growth at the moment, and we are thrilled to have aligned ourselves with an organisation like South East Melbourne,” Reeves said. “Being the league’s newest franchise, situated in the largest basketball-participation area in Australia, Phoenix have a real opportunity to establish themselves as leaders in the NBL both on and off the court. “This agreement will see Hawthorn provide Phoenix with the expertise, learnings and infrastructure to ensure they establish the foundations required to achieve sustained success in the NBL competition. “Being a start-up club, there are some amazing opportunities for South East Melbourne to tap into the Hawks' expertise and knowledge, particularly in the consumer and commercial areas, to ensure Phoenix hit the ground running when they enter the competition next year.” Reeves added the Hawks were determined to do more outside of football. “A key strategic priority in our 2050 Vision is to diversify revenue streams for the club, and this is a way that Hawthorn is seeking to innovate in this area,” Reeves said. “The partnership opens the door for Hawthorn to move into the realm of sports management and governance and we are really excited about the opportunities ahead.” Hawthorn have dipped their toes into the NBL, forming a strategic partnership with expansion side South East Melbourne Phoenix.
