Saturday June 1st
The Hawks have won four of their last six and it could easily be five from their last six. They’ll get another strong test this weekend when they take on the surging Crows at the MCG.
The Eagles are back on their home deck where they’ve been far better than on their travels this season. They’ll be confident they can notch win #4 for the season when they host the struggling Saints.
The Cats have hit a wall in 2024 with four straight losses after beginning the season 7-0. Thankfully, they get a seemingly easy kill in the Tigers this weekend. Surely they get back on the winners list at the Cattery?
Sunday June 2nd
The Demons demolished the listless Saints last weekend and will be eyeing off another win in Round 12 when they take on the Dockers in Melbourne. It’s an important match for both clubs and could prove to be one of the games of the round.
Round 12 concludes with an intriguing fixture that pits the Suns against the Bombers at People First Stadium. The Suns have been tough to beat at home this season, although the Bombers will fancy their chances on current form.
