By Liam McAlary After a long off season, the AFLW crew are almost back in action and we here at Talking Hawks cannot wait for the upcoming 2023 AFLW season. Led by the club’s best recruit in at least half a decade in coach Bec Goddard, and our captain courageous...
Well, that draws the curtain on season 2023 with somewhat of a disappointing effort, souring the massive amounts of progress we have seen in the last month. Expecting a bang to finish the season, the Hawks looked like a young side who were well and truly ready for the off-season...
After taking two big scalps, the third time wasn’t the charm for the Hawks, going down to Melbourne by 27 points at the MCG. With the costly exclusions of Mitch Lewis, Jai Newcombe and Chad Wingard, it was always going to be a tough task against another top opponent. The...
He’s known as the Prince of Poowong. He’s Talking Hawks’ very own. He’s one of the upcoming stars in the AFL. He’s a Hawk… through and through. Jai Newcombe celebrated his 50th game in the win over the Doggies, putting up a career best performance. Big time performances like this...
After missing the best review of the year so far, I was nervous about mozzing the Hawks down in Tassie with my return, but what a win! The young Hawks did what they have struggled to do throughout the year, winning a close game that was on a knife’s edge...

With the 2023 season reaching the final few year rounds, our minds start to look towards what the future looks like in terms of our playing list. With our small forward stocks at current, we have Luke Breust who has one year to play out on his contract, and both...
There is an old saying in footy that you start the game like you ended your last, and for the Hawks, that could not have been more accurate. After running out of legs against the Tigers last week, we never had them to start with, allowing a nine-goal first quarter...
It’s not exactly breaking news but the Hawks are struggling for a centre half forward and it is a pressing need for the brown and gold in 2024. The Hawks have experimented with Jacob Koschitzke, Denver Grainger-Barras, Lloyd Meek and Max Ramsden in this role this season, with limited success....
