Enormous ramifications\u00a0for the out of form Hawks, with a loss potentially sending them packing back to 7<\/span>th<\/span>\u00a0on the ladder.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A win would ensure a Top 4 finish, but a Lions victory over Collingwood would lock in a return trip to\u00a0Perth in two\u00a0weeks’ time\u00a0to face the Dockers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sam Mitchell\u2019s side has looked lifeless\u00a0at times over the last few weeks, struggling down in Launceston against North Melbourne, before a blowout loss to the Lions, and finally, last week\u2019s head scratching draw against Collingwood.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s\u00a0no one area you can point to that needs fixing, as\u00a0the Hawks\u2019 skills and polish has been lacking. Mitchell needs to find a quick fix, and\u00a0it starts with cleaning up turnover and not allowing opponents to get out to early leads.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A game in hand against the hapless Eagles could be what the doctor ordered, but with West Coast hoping to give their fans something to feel good about after another tough year,\u00a0there\u2019s\u00a0every chance they make this interesting.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Prediction:<\/strong> Hawthorn to Win & Over 181.5 Total Points\u00a0@\u00a0$2.00<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
