Ash was back where we all wanted him - in the driving seat, to discuss a result that none of us wanted: a heartbreaking loss to the Crows in Tasmania.

Joined by Danny and Darren, our crew discussed the second consecutive three-point loss, and looked at which players made the cut on a sunny day at UTAS Stadium.

There was plenty to like and as a team the heart, aggression and endeavour was again plain for all to see.

But that doesn’t spare anyone from a post-match rating so find out which players have more work to do, who will be looking over their shoulder at selection this week, and which players performed admirably.

As always, let us know your thoughts on @HawksInsiders or on our weekly Safe Space on Twitter this Thursday night.
