Description

We did it, we finally got off our backsides and recorded the final episode of the 1989 season, which focusses almost exclusively on the Hawks 1989 Premiership triumph. We go through quarter by quarter as well as debate whether it is in fact the greatest Grand Final of all time. 

We chat a little about the Bulldogs potential merger before finishing our final VFL episode. 

Thanks for hanging in there

We will be back for the 2025 season soon.
