The Saints looked to be on their way to a comfortable win after booting seven unanswered goals between the first and third terms which helped open up a game-high 44-point lead. However, the Hawks had other plans, kicking eight of the last ten goals (including the final five) to create a grandstand finish but ultimately, St Kilda was able to stay resolute and come away with their 11th win of the season. First-year Hawk Josh Ward was a shining light, gathering 26 disposals and laying give tackles. While Jai Newcombe bobbed up in front of goal with two majors, in addition to his 21 possessions. The injury-hit Eagles didn’t score a goal in the second half on Sunday afternoon in the battle of the bottom two teams, as the Hawks ran riot with Mitch Lewis kicking a career-high six goals. Hawthorn set the tone early, opening a 43-12 lead at the first break on the back of winning the inside 50s 19-5. The 22.10 (142) to 4.2 (26) result left the Eagles at the foot of the ladder with just one win for the season and a percentage of 55, after Hawthorn piled on 11 unanswered second-half goals for its second victory of the season. Luke Breust kicked three for the match, while Josh Weddle, Cam Mackenzie, Jacob Koschitzke and Tyler Brockman got doubles and five others notched a goal.
