At one stage it didn’t look likely. At one stage, 20 points felt like an Everest size mountain to climb. At one stage, a certain HI member had us locked in at 1-4 after five games.
But this Hawthorn team didn’t quit. The Hawks, lead by their new co-captain, charged back into the contest and turned that deficit into a three goal win.
Fresh from the MCG (and we mean fresh), Darren Levin joined Danny Prins to break down this one. Such is our love for the HI community, this podcast has set the record for the latest record podcast in HI history, finishing after midnight, and on a school night too!
🗣️ Talking Points
The chaotic first quarter: What were the Hawks doing to score so well, but concede so easily?
What changed after quarter time? How did the Hawks wrestle back control of the game?
Leaders stand up: A ‘free’ Dylan Moore, the courageous Jai Newcombe, a breaking out Josh Ward and the never-ageing Jack Gunston were just a few of the major contributors.
That Mitch Lewis question, answered? A big second half from our key forward, but are all doubts erased?
Fourth quarter dominance: How the Hawks ran away with the game, and what makes this team special.
Flowers for those who deserve it: And a Levin driveby for a few opposition players while we’re at it.
(To be fair, it was after midnight at the time)
