Geelong Cats vs Hawthorn Hawks Preview

Geelong and Hawthorn will clash in their traditional Easter Monday blockbuster at the MCG, with the Cats coming off a thrilling 119-100 win over Adelaide during Gather Round. Led by four goals from Jeremy Cameron and Patrick Dangerfield, as well as a stellar performance from Bailey Smith (35 disposals and 17 contested possessions), Geelong will be full of confidence. In contrast, Hawthorn will be looking to recover from a heavy 121-91 defeat to Port Adelaide, a match in which they were down by as much as 71 points. However, the Hawks remain strong at the MCG, boasting 15 consecutive wins across their home venues. Despite this, their recent record against Geelong is poor, having lost five of their last six encounters, including a 106-70 defeat in last year’s Easter Monday clash.
