FULL TIME
Haw: 15.15.105
Syd: 7.9.51
A happy team at Hawthorn wins qualifying final number one over Sydney, quite convincingly in the end. Hodge, Gibson, Mitchell, Sewell and many more were bloody marvelous.
Sydney now will face off against either Richmond or Carlton who will be licking their lips after this dismal Sydney effort.
It was obvious the Swans carrying injured players into the game hurt them immensly as Hannebery, Jetta and Tippett all looked very ordinary.
The three best today were:
Best: Josh Gibson
2nd Best: Luke Hodge
3rd Best: Brent Guerra
Until next time folks – Twitter – @BrodieChivers

Really think that Nicks ends up in Carolina. He played college ball at North Carolina and the organization is run by ex Giants front office people. I’ve been saying it’s going to happen since he was drafted!
