The Hawks are flying high, entering the round in second spot on the ladder, while the Giants are still searching for their second win of the season after last tasting victory back in week one.

The Demons were boosted by the return of key players last week, and will be further strengthened by the returns of both Blaithin Mackin and Lauren Pearce this week.
Key to the Dees' fortunes will be limiting the run of star Mon Conti, while Ellie McKenzie and Katie Brennan - who is in arguably the best form of her career - pose dangerous threats also.
In the last of Saturday's matches, West Coast will be hunting its first win over Fremantle in the Western Derby.
EAGLES v DOCKERS Full match coverage and stats
The Eagles are yet to get one over their crosstown rivals, but their improvement in 2024 means this is perhaps the best chance they've ever had.
Freo's form in the first half of this season has been very impressive, but they've cooled in recent weeks, meaning the timing is right for the Eagles to strike.
