Collingwood and Hawthorn End in Another Draw at MCG
Collingwood and Hawthorn faced off at the MCG, resulting in a thrilling draw for the second time this season. The match ended with both teams scoring 92 points, with Hawthorn's Dylan Moore missing a chance to win the game in the final moments.
Earlier in the season, Moore had previously tied a game against Collingwood with a successful set shot. This time, his attempt was thwarted by Collingwood's Sam Swadling, ensuring the match concluded in a draw. Following the game, Collingwood coach Craig McRae expressed his excitement for the team's performance, emphasizing the importance of celebrating small victories.
This marks a historic moment as it is the first time in V/AFL history that two teams have drawn in consecutive matches within the same season. Collingwood has one remaining home-and-away game against Brisbane next Friday, as they aim for a Wildcard Round final. McRae mentioned that several injured players may return, but their participation will depend on their recovery progress.
