Hawthorn Hawks vs Gold Coast Suns Preview
An off-broadway dead rubber between the Hawks and Gold Coast Suns on a Saturday arvo is hardly going to capture the imagination of the general sporting public, but this looms as a fascinating contest.
Let’s spice this one up with a same game multi.
A couple of handy stats come into play – the home team has won 10 of the Suns’ past 11 games – Hawthorn is incredibly reliable when playing at their Launceston fortress so let’s take them at the $1.80 on offer.
Former Tiger Maboir Chol has been a revelation at the Suns this year, averaging 2.3 goals per game and booted five in Gold Coast’s thrilling win over the Eagles – I’ve got him down for three.
Expect another case of leather poisoning from Tom Mitchell, as per normal, 30+ disposals and I reckon we’ll be pretty happy come the final siren in this clash.
