You can't tell me the Hawks players, to a man, wouldn't have got well into the spirit of last night's festivities in Wollongong. It was a massive night down there, the club's first ever sellout to a reg season game, just a huge emotional occasion for everyone involved.
And they gave their fans the perfect parting gift, with a win over Adelaide. Sure this is THE last game for the Hawks but really, last night was their grande finale, what reason do these guys have for getting themselves up for a game on the gold coast 24 hours later ?
At the other end of the court you've got a Blaze side looking to send Shane Heal into retirement on a grand note. The team's playing well (3 wins on the bounce) and you "choc" would love nothing more than to stick the boot into the club that sacked him one last time.
