Huge stakes for Friday Night Footy with Brisbane hosting Hawthorn at the Gabba. The Lions will be keen to bounce back after their deflating 76 point loss to Carlton last week, which saw them drop out of the Top 4 on percentage. The Hawks are in red hot form having recorded 4 wins on the trot. Keen to be with Brisbane bouncing back on their home deck.
Brisbane will be thrilled to welcome back elite ball user Dayne Zorko, their record has been terrific with him in the side this year. They also benefit from the return of experienced key defender Darcy Gardiner, an area they struggled with last week. Top 5 draft pick Dan Annable also makes his debut. They lose All Australian midfielder Hugh McLuggage with calf soreness as well as rebounding defender Kiddy Coleman to concussion. Bruce Reville has been omitted. The Hawks welcome back Karl Amon, Mitch Lewis, and Ned Reeves. Aidan Schubert, Bailey Macdonal, Finn Maginness and Oliver Greeves have all been omitted.
