Consummate finals performance from Hawthorn. Fremantle struggled with physical then referred psychological pressure. Too many errors, fumbles, hesitation & Hawks capitalised on all of it. Beat Cats/Blues & Freo still have to win prelim in Brisbane/Sydney. Think flag chances are shot. #AFLFreoHawks
#AFLFreoHawks Great pressure all game. Fremantle having to rush, and panic, or just end up with the dump kick where we also did not allow any easy wins for them.
There will be no Wharfie Time.. I’ll tell the children #afl #aflfreohawks

#AFLFreoHawks

Magic!! #AFLFinals #AFLFreoHawks
Dockers their own worst enemy, not dealing with the pressure and making so many mistakes and poor decisions #AFLFreoHawks

Blessed art Lloyd Meek, for he plays with merit in Perth.

The Wizard seems to be able to find more space than Neil Armstrong ever could.
C'arn Hawks!
