Melbourne Demons vs Hawthorn Hawks Preview
Melbourne are a genuine premiership contender and will be looking to prove that when they take on Hawthorn on Saturday.
The Hawks are lingering in the bottom 2 on the ladder and are a real risk of claiming the wooden spoon.
Melbourne have a great record against the Hawks, winning the last 4 games where these two sides have met.
I expect that trend to continue. Melbourne to win.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Melbourne Demons to win at $1.06 odds.
