Hawthorn vs Adelaide Crows — AFL 2026 Round 11
Match details
Evenly matched on squad health.
Head-to-head
Both on a short turnaround (HAW 5d, ADE 5d) — at/under the 5-day congestion mark.
Value-weighted players used — 1st = most churn of key players, 18th = most settled. Weighted by player value (our metric), not raw squad size.
Soft-tissue = the OSIICS muscle/tendon family — the injuries most prone to recurrence (HAW 1, ADE 4).
What do these scores mean?
- Round Health
- — point-in-time (0–100, 100 = no injury absences), weighting current ongoing absences on a fixed scale comparable across rounds. The league average drifts down as the season's injury load builds, so low late-season numbers are normal.
- Season Health
- — cumulative season-to-date: value-weighted injury burden, availability and incidence. Load-managed rests are excluded from both.
