Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The boys discuss the FIRST thing they would both fix at Essendon
Q: I'd love to ask the two of you, if you walked into the club tomorrow as a head coach, what is the first thing you are looking to fix?
The first focus would be defense and the defensive system, followed by emphasizing development fundamentals so players at all levels are clear on basic concepts, which should guide preseason and long-term planning.
'Bring the fans along for the ride' - Jimmy and Sam discuss how the AFL should address controversial umpiring decisions
Q: What would you change to improve umpire accountability and fan trust?
Introduce a weekly, rotating briefing from senior AFL officials that explains the biggest calls and the interpretation rules behind them, plus publish video context from umpire perspectives to help fans see the decision process.
Eddie and Hirdy on Mihocek tackle “Frampton did nothing wrong”
Q: What is your take on the 30-second rule and its impact on game flow?
We believe the rule was intended to curb time-wasting, but the current implementation has created new time-wasting tactics and slows the game by encouraging players to seek extra time in non-ideal ways; the fix may involve adjusting when time is stopped and where the kick must be taken from to restore balance and excitement.
Open the market for Merrett & Gawn, Grundy or Jackson to take Charlie home
Q: Who would be the favorite out of Jackson, Gawn and Grundy at the moment?
I think Jackson would probably be the favourite because he's more explosive, and while Max Gawn has been dominant in early wins, the others are also in the mix; overall it comes down to how they perform across the season and how the voting system tallies those performances.
The next CEO of the AFL
Q: Next AFL CEO is his headline. Eddie, you say you want people with lived experience to be part of the AFL execs.
The discussion centers on valuing real-world experience and hands-on involvement in football leadership as a way to guide the sport's evolution.
