AFL: Hawks coach Sam Mitchell is treating every remaining game in 2024 as an Elimination Final, as Hawthorn look to play Finals for the first time since 2018.
Hawthorn are locked in to try and extend their place in the top eight this home-and-away season , coming up against a depleted Richmond outfit desperate to leave the bottom of the ladder.
The Hawks have now got themselves within touching distance of a once-laughed at finals appearance, with their destiny essentially in their own hands. They will not clinch a finals spot with a win today but, especially if Carlton loses, will be very close to September action. Watch every game until the 2024 AFL Grand Final LIVE with no ad-breaks during play on Kayo. New to Kayo?Meanwhile, the Tigers will be playing for their third win of 2024 in hope of avoiding the wooden spoon - and have the capacity to totally de-rail Hawthorn’s plans of appearing in September.
Adem Yze has made three changes to their side that lost to St Kilda last week, dropping all of Samson Ryan, Kaleb Smith and Thomson Dow.Sam Mitchell’s side will go in unchanged, with Jai Serong, Josh Ward and Finn Maginness the emergencies.There were no late changes for either side with Luke Breust and Kamdyn McIntosh the subs.
