Hawthorn Hawks vs Western Bulldogs Preview
All the Western Bulldogs need to do on Sunday is beat Hawthorn and barrack hard for Collingwood.
The Dogs just got the job done against GWS in a rather ordinary game last week and currently sit 9th on the ladder.Should they beat the Hawks, they’ll be 8th on the live ladder leaving Carlton fans very, very nervous.
Hawthorn was thrashed by Richmond last week, with Tom Lynch booting eight and it’s apparent that Sam Mitchell is playing the kids up until the end of the season, which given where they are at is the smart thing to do.
Even with the game in Launceston for what is a bit of a fortress for the Hawks, they have lost seven of their last eight as an underdog.
With too much to play for, and a nervous afternoon ahead once the siren goes, the Western Bulldogs simply have to win this
.They should be able to cover the line.
