Hawthorn could hardly be better placed for their tilt at a fourth consecutive AFL premiership.The Hawks are two games clear in top spot on the ladder, short-priced premiership favourites and their run to the finals isnt anywhere near as exacting as rivals.But defender Josh Gibson knows before a grand final comes the grind, noting past experience is helping the club guard against complacency.Gibson says Hawthorn arent contemplating the prospect of being the first team to win four straight flags since Collingwood in 1927-30.Instead their focus is on remaining in the top four, starting with Saturdays match against Carlton in Tasmania.From past experience we know if you look too far head, youll miss out, Gibson said on Tuesday.Were a pretty experienced group now and we understand whats required to make finals and give yourself a tilt at being successful in finals.The minute you look ahead youll stumble and you can drop out of that top four pretty quickly.Gibsons first season at Waverley Park was in 2010, when the Hawks finished seventh and lost in week one of finals.It was a lesson in the value of finishing inside the top four - likewise last year when they lost to West Coast in week one of the finals.There has been conjecture over whether that benefit has been diminished by a pre-finals bye this season but Gibson doesnt buy it.Weve seen in the past how important top four is. Last year we definitely needed it (the double chance), the 32-year-old said.It is tight and you cant afford to drop games ... youve seen teams go from second to seventh and vice versa this year.Weve got some pretty important games to play before finals.That run starts at the Hawks adopted home in Launceston, where they have won 40 of 51 games including a current 18-match winning streak.They will confront Blues coach Brendon Bolton, formerly an assistant at Hawthorn.He knows a little bit about Hawthorn but weve got to evolve and change every year. Were doing a lot different to when he was last here, Gibson said.You can see hes changed some things ... theyre playing some really good football.Meanwhile, Gibson downplayed ongoing contract talks with Hawthorn.Im not worried about that. Im sure theyre working on that in the background, he said. Tony Gonzalez Womens Jersey .

After a lengthy wait, persistent rain finally forced the postponement of the Nationals game against the Miami Marlins on Saturday night. The teams, and a few thousand fans, waited nearly four hours from the 7:05 scheduled start time before an announcement was made shortly before 11 p.Jenson Button says Honda have made massive improvements to the deployment of electrical energy over the winter after completing his first miles in the 2016 McLaren. The 2009 world champion highlighted deployment as the key reason for McLarens struggles last season and was delighted to find the situation had improved on the first day of pre-season running.In all, Button completed 84 laps - in excess of a full race distance at the Circuit de Catalunya. This time last year, the newly-forged McLaren-Honda partnership registered a mere six laps. After a difficult campaign, Button was understandably beaming in his post-session press conference and his smile could get wider with Honda set to deliver further improvements before Australia. It is understood that the engine manufacturers will deliver an updated version of the power unit for next weeks test in Barcelona.It is difficult to say in terms of power because this wont be the engine we take to the first race. The deployment is so much better. I dont know if it is the same as the other guys have but it feels like it is. That is a big step for us, Button said. Speaking with Sky Sports News HQs Rachel Brookes, McLaren driver Jenson Button revealed he was glad to be back in the driving seat after the winter break This isnt a track where you struggle for deployment over one timed lap, but over a long run we were struggling massiively and losing four or five tenths on a lap, whereas now we dont so we have gained lap time back over a long run.ddddddddddddt is much better, very easy to understand the deployment and to play with it and it listens to change which is good. It is good to see all the hard work over the winter has paid off. Button toyed with retirement during 2015, but admits he would have been frustrated sitting at home had he hung up his gloves.I was happy 10 minutes ago driving an F1 car, he added.Its what Ive missed for three months, it feels like the longest break Ive ever had in my career. Im so glad I didnt retire last year because I have missed it massively.Hamilton hails best first day ever The latest from Formula Ones pre-season testing in Barcelona.
