I think the Hawks play a stronger brand that is far more consistent. Their running, tackling & ground coverage wears down the opposition, kind of like a strangle hold that slowly breaks every bone in your neck before killing you. The Dogs still have these up and down performances and can't be relied upon. I think they are also more likely to tap out if things get too tough.
Hawks are a bigger premiership threat and I think only GWS, Sydney & Geelong can compete with them physically. Hawks are the first team since the Dogs that can win the flag from outside the top 4. Will they? Who knows, it is still extremely hard to win 4 consecutive finals.
