Luai hits back at hypocrisy claims after monster Chiefs deal<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\nWith 40-odd seconds left in the game, Hawks midfielder Massimo D'Ambrosio kicked a crucial behind to close the deficit to one goal.<\/p>\n
With 20-odd seconds to go, Darcy Moore\ufeff flew for a mark in Collingwood's defensive 50 but spilled it.<\/p>\n
Dylan Moore swooped on the ball and his namesake, attempting to make amends for his dropped mark, collected him high.<\/p>\n

Needing to kick truly from about 25 metres out and straight in front to force a draw, the Hawk steadied himself and delivered a drop punt that never looked like missing.<\/p>\n
"It feels like we did so much right to win that game and get the four points," a visibly shattered Moore told Fox Footy.<\/p>\n
"Instead we walk away with two [points].<\/p>\n
"That's footy sometimes.<\/p>\n
"It stings."<\/p>\n
Hawks livewire Jack Ginnivan spoke for every Hawthorn fan when he admitted they'd escaped with a "get-out-of-jail-free card".<\/p>\n
"We'll take the two points," Ginnivan said, smirking.<\/p>\n
The game marks the first draw of the season and the first draw between Hawthorn and Collingwood in history, who on Thursday night met for the 174th time.\ufeff<\/p>\n
Hawthorn legend Jason Dunstall and former St Kilda star Leigh Montagna are both OK with extra time not being played in the home-and-away season.<\/p>\n
"It's an ugly result, but I like it for that simple fact that it's different," Dunstall said on Fox Footy.<\/p>\n
"And it makes everyone feel like they've been robbed, or they've salvaged something, and it's just different, and I like it for that reason."<\/p>\n
Montagna described himself as a "progressive", and someone generally in favour of "change", but said of regular-season draws: "I'm happy to leave it as a draw and have this weird feeling."<\/p>\n

So weird was the feeling for Hawthorn coach Sam Mitchell that he struggled to sum up his emotions in his press conference.\ufeff<\/p>\n
"I don't know how to give a name to the emotion. It's certainly odd. There's a part of me that thinks if you look at the numbers, how did we only come away with only two points?" Mitchell said.<\/p>\n
"But then [given the score] with two minutes to go, how did we get two points?<\/p>\n
"I'm unsure how to feel. To me, that's one of the beauties of sport. I know there's a lot of talk about the draw and playing extra time … But having a different emotion \u2013 that you don't normally get \u2013 adds to the beauty of sport."<\/p>\n
Collingwood coach Craig McRae rued his side's late-game slip but found some positives in the night.\ufeff<\/p>\n
"When you're in front by a goal with 40 seconds to go, you think you'd hang on to those," McRae said in his press conference.<\/p>\n
"I think we've got some work to do on that late-quarter decision-making and things like that. They kicked a goal right on the siren at half-time, they kicked another one [just before] three-quarter time and then get the one after the siren.<\/p>\n
"But fundamentally, I said to the boys, we didn't win tonight but we definitely didn't lose, and it's important to acknowledge that we played some really good footy against arguably the best team in the competition, who came in tonight to see how our game stacks up. I think most of our fans would have been pretty happy."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
