Back for another week to talk about the Week that Was - and there has been PLENTY of brown and gold news doing the round ahead of our 100 year anniversary celebrations. So Ash, Mick, Nat and Andrew came together to chew the fat together with a special guest in this feel-good mid-week pod.

In this week’s episode we covered:

* The 50-point win against West Coast in a very short (thank goodness) recap of the game at Marvel Stadium;

* A discussion about our Box Hill win and how the AFL players listed performed;

* Special guest Andrew Eyers was on hand to talk about his new book: ‘Hawthorn: 1925’;

* Special mentions to Peter Haby’s new book and Patient Wolf Gin Distillery’s special Hawthorn Limited Edition Gin;

* A flash forward to the celebrations set to take place at the MCG on Sunday and welcoming back to the fore of our legendary coach Alastair Clarkson;

* 100 years of our footy club;

* James Worpel - will he stay or will he go?;

* Josh Weddle - 50 games and all on the trot;

* and much, much more.

As always, we wrap up with your questions, comments and sharp-eyed observations.
