AFL: Hawthorn vs Melbourne – Match Insights & Our Tips

2 months ago - DustinS AFL: Hawthorn vs Melbourne – Match Insights & Our Tips Image
Hawthorn and Melbourne sit 3rd and 7th on the ladder but are only separated by 1.5 wins. The Hawks will keep the gap between themselves and the big pack hunting Top 4 spots. The Demons can go into a crucial Top 6 spot with an upset.

 The Hawks are coming off back-to-back wins against the Giants and Suns and made 5 changes. They will benefit from the return of gun goal kicker Jack Gunston but do lose Nick Watson, Karl Amon, Ned Reeves and Josh Battle to injury. The Demons also have a host of changes but on a more positive note bring in Jiath, Latrelle Pickett and Harrison Petty. The Hawks should prove hard to beat having won their last 12 matches at the University of Tasmania.
