So many questions to be answered in this matchup. The predictive modelling has Adelaide winning by 11 points. The H2H at UTAS is 1-1 so even footing there but Hawthorn are 5-3 overall since 2019. 

The Hawks broke a 3 game losing streak in style last weekend against the Dogs while the Crows pulled off their best win over the season against the Lions. Adelaide though have only 2 of their 9 wins against Top 8 opponents and the Hawks pummeled them both times they met last season.

Adelaide have a better attacking rating this season but Hawthorn have a better defensive rating and they have roughly played the same level of opponents. Adelaide kick more, Hawthorn handball more and are the more efficient team at moving the footy. Adelaide will likely win the clearance battle but the Hawks take marks Inside 50.

Where will this game be won??? I can’t pick it so I have found value elsewhere. Both teams to score 66+ points is a lock and you are getting the same value as a line pick. Mabior Chol roared back to life last week with 4 goals after a couple games out of the scoring. Take him for 2+. Likewise Darcy Fogarty who has scored multiple goals in 9 games this season. Jai Newcombe 25+ touches.

  • Both teams have scored 66+ points in 6 straight head to head matchups.
  • Mabior Chol has scored 2+ goals in 8 of 12 games this year and kicked 4 last weekend.
  • Darcy Fogarty is averaging 2.3 goals per game at 78% accuracy. He has scored multiple goals in 9 of 12 games this season.
  • Jai Newcombe leads the Hawks in average disposals at 24.4 per game.

Head to Head 


Hawthorn own a 5-3 record in the head to head against Adelaide since the start of the 2019 season. They won both matchups last year by considerable margins. The ledger is 1-1 in the period for games played at UTAS Stadium.

5 of 8 games and both matchups last year went Over the Game Total and 5 of the last 6 have gone Over the 152.5 Total set for this game.

The Winning Margin has been between 1-39 in all but the most recent matchup though 4 of the preceding 7 games have had 20+ margins.

The Hawks shrugged off a three game losing streak to beat the Bulldogs last weekend in good fashion 81-59 at Marvel Stadium. It was their 4th straight win against the Dogs and helped them to regain confidence after some poor performances against the Lions and Pies.

The standout once again was Jai Newcombe with 27 disposals including 10 clearances and a goal. Lloyd Meek also did well in controlling the ruck against a top opponent with Hawthorn winning hitouts 51-36. They had 58 Inside 50’s but more importantly restricted the Bulldogs to just 43 forward entries making it difficult for them to capitalise on chances.

The Hawks are the top ranked team in Disposal Efficiency as well as Marks Inside 50 but they are getting belted around the stoppages ranked 17th in Stoppage Clearances.

The Crows had arguably their best win of the season last weekend, beating the Brisbane Lions 68-63 in Adelaide. It was only the 2nd win out of the 9 that Adelaide have that have come against a team currently in the top 8. 

There is no doubting though that they deserved the win, coming from behind to kick 5 unanswered goals in the final term to steal victory. Jordan Dawson took a huge mark and kicked a goal to help secure the win which also pushed him further up the 2025 Brownlow Odds Rankings.

Adelaide rank 1st in Intercept Marks, Points from Turnovers and Accuracy in front of Goals white they are 2nd in Contested Possessions and Hitouts Win %.
