We’re a few days away from Opening Round, and just over a week from Round 1, but the Insiders are in finals type form. Subscribe to Hawks Insiders for exclusive content, analysis, interviews and podcasts.
The Hawks Insiders caught up with Head of Football, Rob McCartney for a wide ranging chat ahead of the season commencement.
Speaking to Danny Prins and Andrew Weiss, McCartney provided great detail and insight into the operations inside the four walls at Hawthorn, including:
Reflections on a pre-season that promised so much but underdelivered;
How the club reviewed their spate of injuries and the difference between ‘controllable’ and ‘uncontrollable’ injuries and how it is measured against overall list health;
What players are ready to take the next step in their footballing journey;
What a successful season looks like and the transition from a developmental phase to a performance phase;
Insights into the Hawks recruits, both experienced and draftees;
The strategy around attracting free agents and what areas of the list need reinforcements. Plus the role Jarryd Roughead will play in that;
Father-son prospects, both on our list and the potential ones;
and plenty, plenty more…
Thank you for your continued support of the Hawks Insiders, we will look to balance out these engaging and insightful podcasts with plenty of written pieces in the coming weeks.
