Where and when: UTAS at 1:45pm (AEST)
Last time they met: Round 17, 2020: Hawthorn 6.4 (40) DEF BY WBD 11.10 (76) at Adelaide Oval (gee they like playing matches between these teams in weird places)
Last five: Hawthorn 2-1-2, WBD 3-2
Match Preview: I reckon this is going to be a really good game. Ever since announcing that they had shafted Clarko were implementing a well-orchestrated handover of the coaching reins to Mitchell, the Hawks have been playing great footy. This week at a ground they love, they come up against a Bulldogs outfit that stumbled against The Dons last round. Just on the basis of ladder positions (15th v 2nd), I’ve got to tip the Doggies but this one is going to be close!
Mottsy Watch:
Mitchell, O’Meara, Bramble (how good has he been!)
Bontempelli, Macrae, Daniel
Mottsy’s Tip: WBD by 5 (tipping record 41/59).

I had a good chuckle with titch’s pre game interview. Hoping we give it a crack today but dogs are a classy side. Got the VC on macrae with dale and bont.
