Hawthorn stuns Brisbane Lions in an AFL upset
On June 10th, 2023, Hawthorn caused a major upset by defeating Brisbane Lions by 25 points at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), extending Brisbane’s hoodoo at the venue. The win means that Brisbane now has just one win from its last 14 games at the MCG, putting its spot in the top four in peril.
Promising signs for Hawthorn’s rebuilding side
Although Brisbane struggled to find its momentum, Hawthorn played a game that its fans deserved to celebrate, recording just its fourth win of the season. As a result, there were promising signs from Sam Mitchell’s rebuilding side. Several young players impressed, and Jai Newcombe, Will Day, and Dylan Moore all had big outings. The club has found its long-term star forward in Mitch Lewis, who was crucially missing for the first six games of this season.
Brisbane Lions‘ MCG hoodoo
Brisbane Lions‘ inability to perform at the MCG continued as they suffered yet another defeat. Brisbane has had just one win from its last 14 games at the MCG, putting its spot in the top four at risk. The Lions must work on adapting to playing at the ground while correcting their psychological issues related to the venue. The Lions‘ inability to perform at MCG is a major challenge they must overcome to win the premiership.
A key factor: Star forwards’ shootout
Star forwards, Mitch Lewis for Hawthorn and Eric Hipwood for Brisbane Lions, were a key factor in the game. They were locked in a brilliant exhibition of key forwards, with each of them scoring multiple goals. Such form from Lewis has made Hawthorn a completely different team, while Hipwood really stood up for Brisbane on a day when his side – and other forwards – struggled to fire.
Philosophical discussion: Overcoming challenges and embracing change
This game reflects how overcoming challenges and adapting to new environments are critical to achieving success. Hawthorn, a rebuilding side, has been struggling in recent years, but they were able to leverage Brisbane’s weaknesses and emerged victorious. In contrast, Brisbane Lions need to work on their weaknesses, such as their performance at the MCG, and embrace change to win the premiership. Both teams can learn from this game and take further steps towards success.
Editorial: The importance of resilience and hard work
This game showcases the importance of resilience and hard work in sports. Hawthorn is rebuilding its team and took on a challenging opponent. They were able to outperform expectations and secure a victory, primarily due to the team’s relentless hard work. On the other hand, Brisbane Lions need to face and overcome their challenges to achieve significant progress and success.
Advice: Learn from your challenges and continue working hard
Both Hawthorn and Brisbane Lions can learn from this game and continue to grow. Hawthorn can continue building on this victory and refining its game plan to achieve more wins. Brisbane can take time to reflect on their performance and work on their weaknesses to overcome their MCG hoodoo and improve their chances of winning the premiership.
