  • Pete from Jerra

    Kane Cornes, a rare man of conviction in our sadly politically correct media is essential and enjoyable listening.

  • Good insights, considered opinions

    High quality, well researched, Hoyney is brilliant listening, Healey is fearless in his views and they are normally based on sound judgements. Cornes obviously respects him a lot, and as such he tempers his more ill-considered takes, which works well. Whitey is great and is prepared to give a contrarian position which is usually based on well-grounded logic.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How much time goes into watching the previous games from your opponent? (20.05.26)
Q: What did the coach say about taking away the influence of the opposition's main strengths?
The coach suggested focusing on not disrupting your own system while identifying one or two weaknesses in the opponent to target, rather than trying to change everything about your style.
Melbourne Mavericks head coach Gerard Murphy (29.04.26)
Q: How was the performance last week?
It was a good win; we ground it out and were able to finish strong, despite facing a good opponent with back from injury players returning.
St Kilda assistant coach Robert Harvey (28.04.26)
Q: Rob, tell us about the midfield changes this year and how the new players like TDK and Marshall are fitting in.
Harvey describes a process of building a balanced midfield with an eye on the future, noting that some players are still developing patterns and chemistry while older players provide essential experience.
Melbourne Mavericks assistant coach Nicole Richardson (15.04.26)
Q: Or how come Chris Scott's not doing this?
The discussion reflects on how coaching styles differ across sports and teams, emphasizing the need to adapt defensive principles rather than replicate another club's exact approach.
Melbourne Mavericks assistant coach Nicole Richardson (15.04.26)
Q: Righto. Tell me this. As a top line coach in netball, what should we be learning from your code that you see and think to them ourselves? How come Brad Scott's not doing this?
We use a mix of defensive approaches, balancing traditional hard one-on-one with area defense to counter different opponents, and we're focused on improving centre pass conversions and ball gains to stay competitive.
