Last time we met

Carlton (36) defeated Hawthorn (24) in Round 8, 2026.

Carlton gutsed out a 12-point win over Hawthorn in a game that did not stop raining from siren to siren.

The Blues led for the entirety of the game, racing out to a three-goal lead at quarter-time, and were never headed in the 5.6 (36) to 3.6 (24) result, even as the Hawks peppered their own attacking 50.

Poppy Stockwell got the Hawks on the board during the second term, as her side began to control more of the general play and lock it in its forward half, holding the Blues scoreless in the process.

The rewards started to come for Hawthorn in the third term. With the rain continuing to teem down, Stockwell saluted for her second, and Kaitlyn Ashmore tied things up a minute later.

Hawthorn was dominating the inside-50 count to three-quarter time, leading 43-20, but trailed by eight points, unable to make meaningful entries in attack (albeit in difficult weather).
