Penguins predict Hawks for AFL grand final

Hawthorn's third consecutive AFL premiership is set in stone going by a pebble prediction from Melbourne Aquarium's penguins.

Ahead of the Hawks-Eagles grand final, another battle of birds saw gentoo penguins fight over AFL team-coloured pebbles on Thursday.

After a slow start, plenty of bumps and some questionable tactics, Hawthorn won narrowly, but the Eagles were just as popular when it came to team-coloured fish cakes eaten afterwards.
