Hawthorn hosts dual reigning premiers Brisbane at the MCG in the preliminary final as both sides look to join Fremantle in next week's AFL grand final.

The Hawks come in off a week's break having stunned the Dockers in Perth in their qualifying final, while the Lions come in after thrashing the Crows in last weekend's home semifinal.

Here is a look at Brisbane's last five finals performances:.

Sam Mitchell is speaking to Fox Footy and he looks nervous as hell, and has said it, to his credit.

"We've given ourselves a chance, and now we come up against a Brisbane team that is well-drilled."

Probably last night watching the footy, you realise the noise and the scrutiny that goes onto these games.

"I go missing most of the time [pre-game]. Everyone gives me space so I go into the corner and look at the whiteboard and I think I make myself more nervous."

Well we were both right about the Dockers. Now I need you to tip the Hawks.

Although, I have to say they are more than a genuine chance to knock the Lions off today, but we've seen the Lions are MCG prelim specialists.

What a comeback win it was from Fremantle last night, erasing a 28-point deficit to down Sydney.

The MCG groundstaff are wizards because there is no way to tell that an NFL match was played here just over a week ago.

You are reading our version, not theirs. This is ABC News's report shortened to its most important sentences, in plainer words, with verdicts and loaded words taken out. Plain description stays, and so do adjectives that carry a fact, such as "former" or "federal". The reporting, the facts and the quotations are theirs — quotations are never edited — and the indicators beside it measure this version. Hover or tap Adjectives to see every one left in the text.
