****

Once again, they play teams twice (Sydney, North, West Coast) before they play the Magpies (round 16) or the Tigers (round 22) which is crazy! Good to see a mix of Saturday and Sunday games at Aurora and a Twilight game on ANZAC day-should be a sell out!

GO HAWKS!!!

Don't forget, if you need a footy fix the International Rules game is on tonight!
