It was not just another Thursday night this week as we hosted our usual Twitter Safe Space - this was a ripper thanks to the one and only #34 Akec Makur Chuot (@AkecMakur).

No actually - what a superstar and such an infectious personality, Akec dropped in to give us an update on the team’s recent training camp, pre-season preparations, who’s burning up the track and some insight into the strategy versus skill time spent leading into round one.

We discussed all the usual stuff like last week’s game and this week’s ahead, injuries, the VFL and more… come for the usual stuff, stay for Akec. Or the other way around. Doesn’t matter, just enjoy the listen!

The Hawks Insiders team (plus special guests) come together to discuss the latest club news live on Twitter Spaces each week. Make sure to follow us on Twitter (@HawksInsiders) to stay across all the updates.
