In a first for 2022 we’ve had to record our snap player ratings after a loss, but we certainly didn’t go down without a fight.After a first quarter in which Carlton looked like winning by eight goals, this young Hawthorn side fought back admirably going down by just a point to the Blues. Who led the fightback, while who struggled to impose themselves on the contest?

In the hours following the game, Ashley Browne, Daniel Prins and Darren Levin assessed the performance of every player - from Harry Morrison (#1) who is quickly cementing his place in our best 22, to Jai Newcombe (#44) who was his usual battering ram self.
