Brian Lake – Sacked on Mad Monday

After a decade with the Western Bulldogs, Brian Lake’s time at the Whitten oval came to an end. With a new coach appointed and some dissent towards him from the senior playing ranks, the writing was on the wall and Lake was off to Hawthorn.
With the Hawks coming off the 2012 Grand Final loss to Sydney, Lake arrived at Hawthorn at the beginning of a magical era. A premiership and a Norm Smith medal in 2013 was only the start for Lake  as he would go on to help Hawthorn take out the 2014 and 2015 deciders. 

In this episode, Lake opens up about being delisted on the Mad Monday after the 2015 Grand Final, his personal struggles post football and how he has been able to get his life back on track.
