Hawthorn can continue its shock charge into finals contention if it adds GWS to its growing list of scalps this afternoon.
The Hawks have won four of their past five games, most notably knocking off the Western Bulldogs and Brisbane, surging from an 0-5 start into 12th on the ladder entering the weekend. The Giants in contrast have lost three of their past four, but snapped their losing streak last time out by beating Geelong in Geelong, with hopes they’ve rediscovered the early-season form that made them flag favourites.
