Last time we met
Hawthorn (46) defeated Richmond (23) in Week 10, 2024
Hawthorn secured a home qualifying final and the McClelland Trophy after a a 23-point victory over Richmond at Swinburne Centre.
In a high-intensity clash, the Hawks kicked clear late to win, capped off with a stunning intercept-turner-goal from Kaitlyn Ashmore.
The Tigers had no answer for Greta Bodey, who ran hard on the wing throughout and took a brave intercept mark in the first term, running back with the flight of the ball. She finished with 23 disposals, 12 of which were collected in the final term.
Aine McDonagh booted a game-high two majors, while Eliza West collected a game-high eight clearances and team-high 24 disposals.
