Hawks with the first 2 goals, umpires harsh on Buddy and his arc this season, still doing well enough to overcome it. Hawks lead by a goal at quarter-time. Swans under pressure with the ball from the outset and the Hawks scoring off turnover, kicking well ahead. Frost and Day playing the loose, handling the Swan key forwards with ease and the Hawks converting their set shots. Mitchell with his own footy, Hawks up 4 goals at the half. Buddy goes completely out of the game, the ball down the Hawks end for a large portion. Same margin going into the last term and it doesn't get any better. The Hawks too good on the day, winning convincingly and comfortably. Hawks handily won the hit-outs, +3 clearances, +9 inside 50's and 4 more scoring shots. The Swans turning it over plenty and the Hawks accurate on goal. Ceglar best afield, with 20 disposals, 35 hit-outs, 2 contested marks, 11 clearances and a goal. Jiath 24 effective disposals, 5 inside 50's, 10 intercepts and 553 metres gained. Rampe best for the Swans, 25 effective disposals, 11 intercepts, 575 metres gained. Lloyd and Mitchell also among the best.
