The highlight came in the second term. With his side only 15 points ahead at the 23-minute mark, Hodge kicked a classic captain's goal.

The 2008 Norm Smith Medallist smothered a kick by Ryan Griffen and booted the ball forward with an old-fashioned torpedo punt which sailed through the goals on the first bounce.

Hawthorn led by 15 points at quarter-time and 20 points at halftime - 6.9 to 3.7 - as both sides struggled for accuracy in the windy conditions.

The battling Bulldogs dug their claws in during the third term and outscored Hawthorn two goals to one to trail by 15 points at three-quarter time.

Four consecutive goals in the first nine minutes of the final term - including two to sub Jonathan Simpkin who came off the bench in the last quarter - extended Hawthorn's margin to 41 points.

Hodge added a second goal to cap a fine performance as the Hawks scored six goals in the last quarter, but the Bulldogs also kicked six including a second goal to Griffen who had a game-high 37 possessions.

Adam Cooney was also prominent for the Bulldogs while Hodge, Jordan Lewis and Isaac Smith were good contributors for the Hawks.

Small forward Cyril Rioli was held to seven disposals by Bulldogs' tagger Liam Picken.

Hawthorn will hope to regain stars Lance Franklin (knee) and Sam Mitchell (ill) for Friday night's MCG clash with Essendon while the Bulldogs will host West Coast at Etihad Stadium on July 28.
