Hawthorn midfielder Isaac Smith insists his AFL side are still sitting pretty as they prepare for the business end of a tilt at history.The Hawks face Geelong in a qualifying final at the MCG next Friday as they seek to win a fourth consecutive premiership.It is a feat that has only been achieved once in the VFL/AFL, by Collingwood in 1927-30.Hawthorn have been far from convincing in their past four games - losses to Melbourne and West Coast, an easy win over North Melbourne and a one-point triumph over Collingwood.But the dramatic victory at the MCG on Sunday ensured the Hawks would finish in the top four and that achievement shouldnt be sneered at.Youre always in a good spot to have a crack at it when youre top four. You get the second chance, Smith said.Were in as good a spot as anyone in the top four.A finals series is completely different .. the seasons over, you regroup and just try to get things done.Weve just got to bring our A game.
