Geelong Cats vs Hawthorn Hawks, Round 6 2025 - Expert Prediction
The bookies can’t split the Cats and the Hawks and it is easy to see why with both clubs expected to be there come September. Our models are pointing to the Cats to be clear-cut winners though so backing Geelong minus the small margin is our play here.
The Hawks suffered their first loss of the season, falling behind from the start against Port Adelaide and never recovering. The young and confident group took their first heavy blow and it will be intriguing to see how they respond on the biggest stage at the MCG on Easter Monday.
The Cats got their first away win of the season, beating the Crows on opening night of Gather Round. Full of confidence, it is expected that Geelong will lean on their experience to clip the Hawks in front of a full house on Monday.
Encounters between these two clubs are always cracking spectacles and plenty of points are expected to be scored. With a modest total of 174.5 take the over and follow the trends with Jeremy Cameron having another 3+ goal match.

- The last 4 matches between the Cats and Hawks have gone over the game total.

The Cats put in huge confidence boosting performance against the Crows to send the home crowd out of Adelaide Oval disappointed after turning a 30-point second quarter deficit into a 119-100 win to open Gather Round last weekend.
The old dogs of the Cats put on a show with Patrick Dangerfield and Jeremy Cameron kicking 4 goals each to lead Geelong’s comeback victory. Bailey Smith was everywhere as well doing what he was recruited for leading the match with 35 disposals as Max Holmes collected 32.
The new-look midfield for the Cats with Bailey Smith playing out of center has been the key to the success of Geelong. Smith’s involvements have been exceptional and the young wing’s ability to link up with Dangerfield and Cameron is key to the Cats success.

Hawthorn Hawks Form Analysis & Betting Trends
Recent Form
| Last 5 W/L | Last 5 ATS | Last 5 O/U |
|---|---|---|
| 4-1 | 4-1 | 3-2 |
The Hawks suffered their first loss of the season, going down heavily to the Power to close out Gather Round with Port Adelaide running away victors 121-91.
Hawthorn had no answer for Port in the first half, conceding 6 goals in a quarter for the first time this season with the Power kicking half a dozen in both the first and second quarters to lead by 59 at the break. It was all over from there and a little fightback from Jack Gunston with 6 goals wasn’t enough for Hawthorn.
The loss is a loss but it will be how the Hawks respond after it that will be the interesting factor this week.
