HAWTHORN v BRISBANE
Sunday 26 May @ Marvel Stadium
Psychologically this is a ripping affair. What can be possibly taken from the horror of Adelaide for Hawks supporters that hasn't already been said.
They looked superb for three quarters, negative for another bar 24 seconds and horrible thereafter.
The pads went on like Rahul Dravid at his best and all they did was defend. Good teams struggle to do that. Imagine asking a poorer side to try it.
Sure Butters drove Port on but it only needed one more Will Day kick or Ginnivan dive on the ball and they were home. None of that occurred.
Even though away from home this time, you can imagine Brisbane will be already up to knowing what Hawthorn will try on this week.
Remember this game is at the Docklands and as opposed to the MCG, their record is sensational.
They had a live kill at home on Saturday night when the Tigers found the bigger cats more dangerous. It was on the cards and so it happened.

Brisbane has barely lost here in the last 5 years. Expecting that it won't be any different. Joe Daniher could have a field day.
