It was a great hour for some robust discussion in the Safe Space this week. Should we be gutted by the loss to the Giants? Have shifted expectations changed the way we view results? How will we judge the season as a whole once it is done?

Plenty of banter and reflection as Weissy, Ash, Daz, Brad, Mora and Mick discussed a range of pressing brown and gold matters including:

* A huge announcement - Hawks Insiders are hosting the LIVE pre-game show on Hawks Radio via SEN this weekend;

* A brief comment on the racism saga;

* That loss to the Giants - what went wrong?;

* Should we have won the game and what were the key moments that cost us the four points?;

* The emotional experience watching the game and reflecting a few days later;

* Questions without notice - a GWS special;

* The wonderful win by Box Hill on the weekend and the continued journey they are taking us all on;

* A look ahead to the Blues game on Sunday;

* And much more…
