Hawthorn coach Alastair Clarkson admits his side must lift in AFL finals if theyre to capture a record-equalling fourth straight premiership.The Hawks recorded a dramatic one-point victory over Collingwood at the MCG on Sunday, when they needed a win or draw to secure a top-four spot.They ticked it off in unconvincing fashion and will now face rivals Geelong in a qualifying final, having beaten the Magpies 17.10 (112) to 17.9 (111).Collingwood, who were a man down in the second half following James Aishs hamstring injury, booted four consecutive goals to hit the front with a tick under three minutes remaining.Jack Fitzpatrick, called into the Hawks side following ruckman Jon Ceglars season-ending knee injury, was the unlikely hero.Fitzpatrick, playing his first game for the club, burst through the middle and unloaded a bomb from over 55 metres out to level the scores before Paul Puopolo put the Hawks in front.Clarkson was relieved to seal a coveted double chance in finals but unhappy with many elements of the performance, particularly the ease at which Collingwood scored.We dont like giving up 17 goals and its not very often you win a game when you do, Clarkson said.So we were a bit lucky in that sense. It was a pretty open, free-flowing game - great for the fans but not so good for the heart rate of coaches.They (Geelong) were pretty impressive on Saturday. Well have to play a bit better than we did today if were going to (win).It was the sixth time this year Hawthorn have won by nine points or less.Once again the spirit of our group and resilience to just hang tough in the last five minutes and find a way to win was really important, Clarkson said.It was pretty frantic.The Hawks trailed by 16 points in the second quarter and were outplayed for much of the contest.Small forwards Cyril Rioli and Luke Breust led a spirited comeback and a snapped goal from veteran Jordan Lewis gave Hawthorn a 12-point buffer at three-quarter time.The Magpies continued to fight in front of a crowd of 52,968, levelling the scores early in the fourth term.The Hawks steadied thanks to clutch goals from James Sicily, Billy Hartung and Shaun Burgoyne, only for Collingwood to rally again.Josh Gibson could be scrutinised for a clumsy spoil on Levi Greenwood in the second quarter but AFL legend Wayne Carey expected the Hawks defender would be cleared by the match review panel.Thats no worse than Rory Sloane (who was suspended last week) but Greenwoods got no claret and thats what saves Gibson. I think hes fine, Carey said on radio station Triple M.Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley praised his sides effort.The only thing we didnt get to do was sing the song, Buckley said.

Throughout the Tour de France, Australian professional cyclist Richie Porte will be checking in. Here is his latest entry, as told to ESPN contributor Rupert Guinness:Stage 5: Limoges to Le Lioran, 216kmWhen one of your teammates wins a stage, as Greg Van Avermaet did on Wednesday in the fifth stage of the Tour de France -- also taking the yellow leaders jersey -- one of the great moments comes when the whole team is sitting together in the bus after, heading to the hotel.Wins really boost a team. You are really happy for the guy who has won, of course, but the positive vibe goes through everyone. And in the Tour that can really make a difference.Trouble is, after Gregs win in the stage from Limoges to Le Lioran, we didnt get that ride.We instead jumped in to the cars because it was supposedly going to be quicker. But we couldnt get through. The gendarmes wouldnt let us through at first, but then they did and gave us an escort. Still, we got stuck in traffic, taking 25 minutes to do three kilometres.Anyway, the point is: we missed the moment where one teammates win is everyones. Although after Greg finally got to the team hotel to eat dinner, after his obligations as the stage winner and new Tour leader, we did get together to toast the moment so to speak.It was quite a win. He really deserved it.He is one of the best classic riders; he also won a stage in the Tour last year. But he is also a classic guy. One of the first things he did before we all got together to celebrate his win was to send a message to the group by WhatsApp saying: Thanks a lot. Its a dream come true. To be honnest, though, he cant really be thanking us as we didnt do much for him.dddddddddddd He did it himself. On a hilly course, he made the break and smashed it, despite the group including some solid climbers like Polands Rafal Majka (Tinkoff).Ive already said that his win will boost team morale -- not that it had dipped as some might think after I lost vital time in the second stage - and I felt that while we were still finishing the fifth stage into the Massif Central and he neared the finish.As for the group with general classification favourites on Wednesday, it was hard to read much into the outcome. I know Alberto Contador (Tinkoff) lost more time, but you cant underestimate the impact of his crashes and how he might recover in the next day or so.You also have to take into account that Wednesday was the first hot day of this years Tour.Riders respond differently to heat, especially the first hot day after cooler or wet weather.What I have noticed is how some guys are starting to stress out and causing others to worry; especially nearing the top of a climb as they try to position themselves for the descent.It will be interesting to see how that unfolds in the big mountains such as the Pyrénées that we enter on Friday and take on big time on the weekend with stages eight and nine.Sundays 184.5km ninth stage from Vielha Val dAran in Spain to Andorra Arcalis is one of the hardest days of this Tour. I think we are going to see who has got it and who doesnt. ' ' '
