It was our best Opening Round fixture in recent memory as the Hawks got the chocolates against the Swans at the SCG, and it was the best post-Opening Round Wednesday Night Safe Space as the Hawks Insiders went to work to discuss the game and preview next week.

Danny lead a team consisting of Weissy, Nat, Mora and Mick and the boys chatted through:

* The positives and negatives of the game against the Swans;

* Mora’s ‘spicy’ take on the Hawks clash jersey;

* The Full Sweat documentary and how ‘whelmed’ Weissy was;

* Contract rumours including Lloyd Meek, Nick Watson, Massimo D’Ambrosio and Oscar Allen;

* The fitness of Hawthorn’s list and the progress of Calsher Dear, James Blanck and Mitch Lewis:

* A quick look ahead to the Round 1 match against the Bombers;

* And much more…
