A game of momentum swings. Essendon burst from the blocks, kicking eight goals to one in the second quarter to set up a 39-point lead. Hawthorn then turned the tables in the second half, completing their own eight-goal-to-one third term before holding on to win a thriller.

I don’t think my Hawks will ever get back to their ‘13-‘14-‘15 domination level but this comeback was a thriller. So good

[@alyssaaaa67]

Yeh I was there and almost had a heart attack ! Gee I love them let’s hope they’re thus good for Richmond

[@tabasco.15]

These last games have been tough but we come out all good. Gunston back soon and we have a chance to shake up the comp. Riding the bumps with a grin mate!

Longer quarters are better so there’s a better chance of a comeback again

As an Essendon supporter even I agree, so much better that even if you’re 40 points up you’re not home, hope we learn our lesson next time

Why do they take so long for highlights now? They used to post them like 1 hour after the match last year

[@Josh92SA]

It's round 1 you twot.

[@XavierXonora]

@@Josh92SA Settle petal, it's a valid question. I was thinking the same thing.

[@newsgetsold]

Highlights are available earlier on afl.com.au. I think they make more ad revenue on their own website.

[@TheSWcuber]

@@Josh92SA what does that have to do with anything? Next week will be round 2 then round 3? What’s your point
