Ok so looking at tha manga, there is no evidence that Hashirama did not use Sage Mode against Madara with fresh EMS. The fight was verious Senju against Madara alone. Regardless we saw nothing but the initiation and the outcome of the fight.

In the fight against the Madara+Kurama fight Hashirama did use Sage Mode and they both fought until they couldnt maintain their EMS and SM. Hashirama ended up winning that fight through cunning, not by over powering Madara.

Hiraishin is uber hax, possibly more than MS(depending on the abilities) so Tobirama probably wins because he can get the kill shot much more easily.
