  • Not as good as it used to be.

    Please stop dedicating 10 minutes to Harley Reid every episode.

    Plenty of other young talent in the AFL that fans want to hear about.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What to expect this trade period
Q: Could Fremantle realistically pursue a star midfielder like Chad Warner?
The hosts acknowledged the interest but noted the salary cap and draft capital constraints make it unlikely in the near term, unless Fremantle sacrifices assets or waits for contract situations to free up cap space.
What to expect this trade period
Q: What did Joe Bridey say about Nathan O'Driscoll's trade situation?
Bridey confirmed Nathans's management were entertaining options but stressed that discussions would be held after the season, indicating an openness to explore while keeping the door to stay open, depending on how the trade period unfolds.
Brian Windhorst previews the AFL grand final
Q: Can you tip Fremantle for the grand final margin?
Windhorst declines to make a detailed prediction but expresses support for Fremantle and emphasizes the narrative importance of their first-ever premiership and the emotional payoff for their fans.
Brian Windhorst previews the AFL grand final
Q: Is a legacy greater if you do it for a drought breaker than if you do it for somewhere else?
Yes, because achieving a comeback under pressure for a team breaking a long drought creates a lasting legend that feels deeply personal to the city and fans, often elevating the player's status in a way that is inseparable from the team's history.
How Jordan Clark went from 'hot head' to Freo leader
Q: How do you approach a game like this with so much on the line?
Clark expresses excitement, focus on fundamentals, and a commitment to playing Freo football without getting overwhelmed by the occasion.
