Speaker 3: Hey, I was in Sydney yesterday and one of your,
Speaker 3: one of your teammates, was fronting the media, Big Mitchie
Speaker 3: Lewis Now he was asked a question by the MC
Speaker 3: which was misinterpreted, I think by Mitch. He was asked
Speaker 3: about Hawthorne and the reputation that comes with the Hawks
Speaker 3: that being young and sexy. I think Mitch thought they
Speaker 3: were talking about him.
Speaker 4: But oh, and what was it about the style of.
Speaker 3: Game the Hollywood Hawks These days they're known as are
Speaker 3: you young and sexy? Are you going to play young
Speaker 3: and sexy football?
Speaker 2: I think we want to play good exciting football and
Speaker 2: we love attacking football, and Sam drives that message a lot.
Speaker 2: But I think we'll come back to our pre season
Speaker 2: and we pride ourselves on hard work and we know
Speaker 2: the other things will come off that. So that's what
Speaker 2: we base ourselves on, hard work and you know the
Speaker 2: other things will come, the shiny stuff to the goal
Speaker 2: celebrations of all the young a fews.
Speaker 6: I was going to say there was a player at
Speaker 6: the club that thought the young and sexy comment was
Speaker 6: about them personally.
Speaker 4: Who would it be?
Speaker 6: Who would be the most likely to take that as
Speaker 6: a personal compliment, go on, throw them under.
Speaker 1: Springs. Demand Conor McDonald, all of them.
Speaker 4: Who came back from the previous season the most unfit.
Speaker 5: I was asking him off the air. He said, everyone
Speaker 5: came back looking like stallions.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I think these days that, as I said before,
Speaker 2: the preseason is getting shorter and shorter. So you've got
Speaker 2: to come You've got to come back and good nick. Otherwise, Yeah,
Speaker 2: you go hard?
Speaker 4: Yeah, how are you hard to catch up?
Speaker 5: We've got club memberships to go this morning. Thirteen twenty
Speaker 5: four to ten is our number if you want to

Speaker 2: it's a massive building. I think there's seventy five percent complete,
Speaker 2: so end of this year will be moving in, which
Speaker 2: is really exciting to the boys are hoping we get
Speaker 2: in before the end of the season because it's brand
Speaker 2: new facilities and it looks unbelievable.

Speaker 3: embrace it, right, How do you how do you attack
Speaker 3: season twenty twenty five.

Speaker 2: job of embracing the hype around the club. And there's
Speaker 2: obviously a doco coming up. It's going to be released
Speaker 2: about us, about our pre season, which is really good.
