- Zac Bailey < Izak Rankine
Love the podcast. Am a recent Media and Comms grad, so if you ever need more hands, please reach out. Had to comment as the take the Izak Rankine is better than Zac Bailey is a travesty. 18 clubs would pay Zac Bailey more than Rankine.

Sam’s arrogance in his footy opinions is unbearable. While both might be great news reporters, the A-Grade segment just reinforced that they should leave the analysis to others. The insight was lacking and criteria contradictory throughout to support his selections, and the smug delivery made it even worse. A tough listen.
