Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Former GM of Football Operations of the AFL Adrian Anderson (16.09.26)
Q: With the AFL under scrutiny for governance and past investigations, what would you consider the essential steps for accountability and apologies when appropriate?
Andrian discusses the need for clear investigations, potential apologies for the game and clubs where warranted, and the importance of process and fairness in resolving historical issues.
Former GM of Football Operations of the AFL Adrian Anderson (16.09.26)
Q: Adrian, how do you view the stand-down policy in light of players not yet charged, and what should be the right balance between fairness and regulatory action?
He argues penalties must be proportionate and that stand-down rules need to consider the player's career impact, the evidence of misconduct, and the public/sponsor relationship, noting differing practices across leagues.
Former GM of Football Operations of the AFL Adrian Anderson (16.09.26)
Q: Now, in a previous life, Adrian, you outlawed hands in the back. Were you shocked that it came back in as a permissible act? And how have you seen it evolve in recent times?
Adrian explains that he wasn't shocked because many coaches opposed it, and discusses the goal of preserving the marking contest, with the evolution reflecting a balance between safety and keeping the spectacle intact.
Sportsday with Cam Luke and Adam Cooney Full Show - Thursday September 17th 2026
Q: What is the simplest way to understand the Todd Marshall–Zak Butters deal in layman's terms?
Port Adelaide cannot contribute any money under the current AFL rule, so the deal would need to be structured around picks and players rather than direct top-ups; the focus shifts to whether the Bulldogs can secure the necessary compensation picks without Port paying cash.
Sportsday with Sam Edmund & Gerard Healy - Wednesdy Full Show (16.09.26)
Q: How should the AFL handle push in the back to protect players and the marking contest?
Adrian Anderson discusses reinstating a trigger-based approach to the push in the back to help umpires decide consistently and protect players from dangerous incidents, while acknowledging there are broader safety and game-flow considerations.
