That's right, they will have to play away again. That's how the finals system is structured. The loser of Swans/ GWS will be playing in Sydney next week because they finished top four.

All top 4 teams are guaranteed a least one home final. Even if they have to play away in week one, if they lose, they host week 2. If they win, they host a Prelim.
Hawks played away to Geelong and lost - now it could be argued that this game should have been played at Kardinia.
But then, Hawks host the Dogs at the G, or Tasmania if they really wanted to.

Yes but the AFL won't let Hawthorn play in Tassie as it would not be as favourable to their bottom line.

On the Hodge sneak go on Selwood in a way good and bad
To explain media tell the public what great players they but dont mention
what bad sportsmanship they displayed last night---thats the bad
The good is they were wackin each other

Would love to see the Ponces beat the Thugs. But they are Ponces for a reason. They have never beaten Hawthorn once in a final (in case you're wondering they beat our mob but once.)
To win next week they will have to win two finals in one season, a feat they have not accomplished since 1961...
So much as I would like the miracle to occur, sadly we will have to put up with the horrible Hawks for one more week.

Hawks no chance whilst Gunstan continually avoids any physical contact.
"Out the back" Gunstan has been found out once his kicking for goal dropped away.
Like the little kid who "makes space" but in reality just doesn't like any physicality.
Watched his game against us and also vs cats. Continually out the back for the cheap easy ones.

Agreed; It's plainly obvious he is the one player missing the presence of Roughead, more than any other.

Hawks will win, and have an easier run to GF than facing Adelaide or Sydney

Funny that we'll be going for the Dogs on Friday and against them on Saturday.

Heart says that the Dogs win.
Head says that the Hawks will win.
