AFL Hawthorn vs Geelong preview

This is set to be a cracking game, with the Hawks finding some form and Geelong not quite the same side of old. Both teams will be remembering the 2008 grand final, so intensity should be at a terrific high.

Sportingbet again has some fantasy trio betting options:

Ablett vs Bartel vs Chapman

All three were keys in their victory last week, with Ablett out to prove his loyalty to the club, he scored 129 points, including 13 kicks, 24 handballs and a couple of goals. Bartel scored 114 points and Chapman 105, but Chapman is the wildcard this week for mine. Ablett is likely to get a hard tag which means Chapman will be in a position to take up some of the slack.

Tip: While Chapman is a real chance in probably the toughest of fantasy trios, it's hard to tip against Ablett.

Joel Selwood vs Mitchell vs Corey

By his own high standards, Mitchell was just on par last week, but still managed 27 touches and 112 points, while Selwood is caught in a team with extremely high possession counts and managed 107 points, including 23 disposals and 9 tackles. Corey's intensity wasn't up to his usual standard with 80 points, but expect that to lift against the Hawks. Note the last time Geelong played the Hawks, Selwood had 42 disposals.

Tip: We'll expect Mitchell to take a leading role today to narrowly pip Selwood.

Hodge vs Lewis vs Enright

Hodge was outstanding in the first week with 34 disposals, 9 marks and 5 tackles. Throw in a goal and he racked up 142 points. Lewis had 27 disposals for 109 points and Enright 17 disposals for 90 points.

Tip: It's hard to go against form, so we'll tip Hodge to repeat his 2008 grand final dose on the Cats.
