The Hawks will host Wangi in this Sunday’s match. The game will kick off at 2.30pm. This will be the last chance to see the Club play at home. The Hawks have not been defeated at Myall Park this season, and players say they will endeavour to keep this record intact. Wangi will be looking for a win to maintain their top three position on the table.
