Hosts Danny, Darren and Andrew fronted up after a devastating loss in Norwood, where our plucky young Hawks just failed to get the points at the final hurdle against the Giants.

It was an encouraging performance and fantastic four-quarter effort which has resulted in plenty of players getting a positive review in our Player Rating Pod.

We know from social media doing the rounds post-match that the performances of James Worpel, Lloyd Meek, Sam Frost and DGB have divided opinions.

So how did we go? Did we get it right? Do you agree with our comments or did we get it spot on?
