Game Day Round 5, 2025: Port Adelaide v Hawthorn, 7.20pm @ Adelaide Oval

[kenneje]

Our defence is so much better than it was in the final. Battle & Barrass are massive inclusions.

Think our midfield is more well rounded with Ward and Mackenzie now key cogs.

I'm so up and about... Nervous, but excited. Can't wait.

 

[Bedi]

Waiting, waiting, waiting...

waiting since Sept!

 

[chippie]

Can anyone tell me what we used to do for all those years with late Sunday time slots? Too much thinking time.

This is why I am totally against a night Grand Final! The anticipation would kill me before the game starts!

 

[jenniferHAWKinS]

If we can take care of a full strength GWS who are scary good we should beat an average Port team. Day’s injury has scared a few on here!

 

[MistyAvalon]

a good win will see us back on top of the ladder

oh I know...... I live in Sudney and the NRL granny has been at night for years.. It just is not the same

 

[MistyAvalon]

too much confidence in here suggesting a huge win haha it's irrelevant what happens next Easter Monday is the most important game of the year for the hawks are we gonna let the cats sh$t on us once again ????

yes.. but at least next week hub and I will be in Melb cheering on the hawks.... I am not so sure about this game

 

[MistyAvalon]

Everything against Port, media about the fine etc. This is a classic port win coming up

my fear exactly

 

[MistyAvalon]

Really hope things click today and we have an even 4 quarter effort. We’ve only seemed to have played 2 or 3 good quarters each game this year.

Would love to see us at our punishing best.

agreed but I fear it ain't gonna happen

 

[MistyAvalon]

Goodluck Hawthorn, you have the overwhelming majority of South Australians wanting you to win and win well tonight.

thank you very much

Would like to see the connection with the forwards improving and get 15+ goals again.

I hope Dwayne isn't calling this one on Fox Footy, but suspect he probably is.

Don't you see me? Don't you love me?
Dwayne was referring to Watson. That's all I know.

 

[RCAB]

If we beat port and geelong we have a good chance to be 9-0 with us facing wce, richmond and melbourne consecutively

For the first time ever, if I had to choose, I'd rather beat Port than Geelong next week.

Argue against each other.

 

[CaptainWorpedo]

Dam are we there yet? Only the AFL drag a game out this far after a bye.

On the upside the Hawks should be well rested and ready to rumble…..

 

[I got the outside word]

Argue against each other.

No we didn’t.

 

[JZedd]

There were quite a few Hawks that lowered their colors in last yrs semi.

I think those guys will be super determined to perform.
Sicily BOG.
Hawks by 16.

 

[SC fish]

Just walked through the Adelaide CBD there's heaps of Hawks supporters heading to the game

It could also be Port Supporters, seeing they want Ken gone

And not even a Box Hill match to tide us over.

Hope the boys have taken notice how dewey the conditions have gotten in the second halves of these night games. Don't want to be seeing any of them slipping over.

Not sure how Dewey is relevant to the conditions… but yes he did play for both teams.




Ah heck it let’s watch it
