Racing and Sports will provide analysis of games in the 2024 AFL Season.

We'll endeavour to run through the form, incorporate appropriate stats and also supply a betting prediction which won't always just be who will win.


HAWTHORN v FREMANTLE

Saturday 13 July @ UTAS

Another game where the ups and downs will solidify or could end a season.

You can either view Hawthorn's slip up in Geelong as expected and not hard to do at the Cattery. Or you can view it explaining exactly where they are at.

They never led the game and it got progressively worse thereafter. Some of the new name mids were curtailed and it left a vulnerable forward line unsatisfied and a backline pressured.

While you wouldn't normally think of Fremantle as a side to behold, they are scoring and scoring well of late. The Sydney win excellent, the Tigers win a slaughter.

If anything they could have won by more. Brayshaw and Serong as a one-two punch up there with the best as it allowed Fyfe to be more impactful than domineering.

Match Hawthorn Fremantle Ground
Last time they met 8.8 [56] 14.9 [93] MCG
Last 10 matches 4 wins 6 wins  
Notes Fremantle has won the last 6 matches
Freo's win at York Park in 2021 was their first in 11 attempts against Hawthorn

The loss of Darcy to yet another injury could well hurt as the ruck combo has worked beautifully recently.

This is the Hawks possible last shot. They will be dangerous and worth one last play as an outsider.

Match Selection: Hawthorn by 6 points

Suggested Bets: Hawthorn @ $2.10 @ bet365
