Hawthorn host Collingwood in Round 23 of the 2026 AFL season at MCG on Saturday, 15th August at 7:40pm AEST. Read on for our full match preview, betting tips, and best odds.
Saturday’s MCG double-header wraps up with Hawthorn and Collingwood locking horns in front of a packed house on Saturday night.
The Hawks will be looking to bounce back after they failed to show up against Brisbane, going down 125-58 on the back of 17+ turnovers and an efficiency of just 42% inside 50.
It leaves Sam Mitchell’s side just two points clear of the sixth-placed Demons and with their top four spot suddenly under pressure.
Collingwood, who have now won four of their past five after defeating the Eagles by 19 points in the west, could regain Scott Pendlebury and Jordan De Goey for this one.
The Pies have lost 14 of their last 15 away matches against the Hawks, which is a surprising and telling stat that gives us all the confidence in the Hawks bouncing back.
