Hawthorn is aiming for their fifth consecutive win this Sunday, a streak they haven’t achieved since 2018. They are also striving for three consecutive victories against West Coast, a record last matched between 2012 and 2015. This season, several Hawthorn players have reached significant milestones: Jarman Impey, James Worpel, and James Sicily each played their 100th game, while Connor Macdonald reached 50 games in number 31.

In Round 14, Hawthorn drew a crowd of 92,311, the second-largest attendance for a home and away game, and they have recorded multiple 70,000-plus attendances this season for the eighth time in club history. Historically, Hawthorn’s Round 16 performance is strong, with significant winning streaks and notable victories over the years. Jarryd Roughead set a club record with eight goals against West Coast in 2014, surpassing previous records held by Jason Dunstall.
