Hawthorn Hawks vs West Coast Eagles Preview
Hawthorn had a big win over Adelaide last week and get a great chance to make it back-to-back wins when they host West Coast at the MCG.
The Eagles played two good quarters of footy against Carlton last week but also put in two very bad quarters.
There’s no doubt West Coast are a better team now than they were earlier this season but it’s hard to back them interstate.
I’m happy to avoid betting on this game but I’m tipping Hawks to win.
Betting Update:
All the money this week has been for Hawthorn. They opened the week at $1.44 with Ladbrokes and have been smashed into $1.17.
West Coast are unwanted. They sit at $5.20 out from their $2.80 opening price.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Hawthorn Hawks to win at $1.17 odds.
