Niklas Wellen returned from the 2023 Hockey World Cup in India with a World Title, a Player Of The Tournament award and a brand new baby boy.

Here all about it on Episode 17 of 'Get It India' as Wellen talks candidly about the German road through the tournament.

We also talk about the great “you don’t beat the Germans until they’re on the bus” line, we discuss how he found out he became a father during a game, before we delve into the art of the shootout.

Andrew Charter is one of the best shot stoppers in the world and he was kind enough to take some time away from his honeymoon to jump on 'Get It India' and spin some yarns.

We spoke about Australia's 'failure' at the recent World Cup, Charts pitched why anyone should be a goalkeeper, we discussed his childhood and battles with depression, and we touched on a burning issue in Australian hockey - should players be allowed to leave the high performance program and head overseas to play in rich club competitions?

As the dust settles on the 2023 Hockey World Cup, 'Get It India' is going to debrief the event with a few of the guys who were on the ground in Bhubaneswar.

Spanish coach Max Caldas joined me to discuss his side's quarter final loss to Australia and the redevelopment of Spanish hockey.

Max also named his 'Team of the Tournament' and I reckon some of the inclusions will surprise you...

It's semi-final day at the 2023 Hockey World Cup and we ramp up the excitement levels with a frothing Nick Budgeon on today's episode.

Budge and I talk about players, teams and tactics we have loved so far during the World Cup - Tom Craig, Victor Wegnez, the Poms, ze Germans and the clever way teams are manipulating certain pressing structures.

We also touch a bit on tonight's big matchups - Australia v Germany and Belgium v Holland.

Fresh off a disastrous betting night, we regroup with a chat with one of England's finest hockey talents - Ashley Jackson.

His presence gave the Poms an almighty threat, the likes of which they'd never really had before, and it was always an immense challenge taking him on.

On this episode we share some old stories, talk about a resurgent English side, he tells us who he thinks can win the World Cup, and of course we chat about his wonderful career.

Tom 'TJ' Wickham joins us today to discuss his role in the Aussie team, why the Kookaburras are in a 'win now window', and we talk about the good and bad things that come from playing for South Australia.

I also threw some hypotheticals his way. If you had to go to jail with one teammate, who would it be and why? Who is the biggest love bird on the team? Which teammate would you want shooting at goal with your life on the line? And which Kookaburra wouldn't shout if a shark bit him?

Mark Knowles joins me to discuss some 'Burning Questions' from the Hockey World Cup. Are the Aussies a bit leaky? Does England have the firepower to win it all? Do we need 16 teams in the tournament? Is Belgium in strife? And should the Hockey India League return?

Are umpires the most polarising part of sport? I've had my fair share of run ins with officials over the years but it was great to get the world's best umpire, Laurine Delforge, on the show to talk about the art of refereeing in today's episode of Get It India.
