Always a treat, hope your apple trip was painless this week bud.

The only negative of wild ca4d round is if both 7 and 8 were to miss out but the afl is only looking to make more $$$$$$$$$
Boys love the show but Xerri is pronounced ‘sherry’ not ‘cherry’ 😉
I live in north qld, Victorian but go for the lions and this duo are the best to listen to by far. Great insight, chemistry and it’s nice not to hear all the Victorian commentary
Perfect breakfast for you skeeter!
Brisbane have won 9 in a row, won by 85pts last week. Sydney have lost 5 of last 6, belted by 19 goals last week. Will can't believe Sydney are no longer flag favourites … riiiiiiiiight 😮
Skeetz loves a froffy
The Club are correct in allow such a club Champ to reach 300 AFL game and life membership. This is his consolation prize for missing the 2018 GF for a reckless swing of the arm. Taking one or two games from a kid that will play another 100 + going forward means nothing, but the credit the club gets from doing it is priceless !
In every other job, you have the ability to take annual leave to do with what you want. Why can't the bloke take some leave to go watch his partner compete for our country?
agreed Schoey, the wildcard round would be epic!
Good show I watch from Thailand
Mountford played for North Melbourne previously. He debuted against the Eagles in 2017.
Eagles fan here I’d hate to lose Ryan and Barrass but it’s the long term plan and we need more quality draft picks….
How about after 18 rounds of having everyone played each other once with a bye, you have a series of wild card elimination rounds? 18v15 17v16; Wv13 Wv14; Wv11 Wv12; Wv9 Wv10; Wv7 Wv8; which takes you to 23 rounds. Meanwhile, the top 6 can also play each other.
Even Whacko Jacko snubbed St Kilda 😅
I hate when clubs recruit a player like a spare tyre in a rebuilding phase.
Geez, I thought you were the humble self deprecating ex WCE player that everyone loved, including myself. But it’s a bit arrogant to double down on your sentiments last week. You’ve acknowledged you were a grumpy phuck, yet everything is justified and correct. That lovable humble self deprecating guy is on vacay. All you had to do was just admit that maybe you were even just a millimetre overly negative.. but no. You’re right and Skeeter is wrong. Your fans are wrong. Your listeners are wrong. The truth is fine but many of these guys are your very close friends. So what happened to “build em up, don’t knock em down”? Don’t deny the negatives, just focus more on the positives because there actually are some. What happened to you man?
Just erasing the 12 games North Melb great Mountford played for the roos so he could AFL debut for 🦅😂
Absolutely stupid the wild card crap. If ya make the 8 you make the 8 if ya don't you not good enough to be in the finals Andrew Dillion wanna stop trying to copy the NBA🤦. Absolutely stuffing the game right up
We need something to build with. I think we had the mix of old and new players on the weekend against Gold Coast. Liam Ryan’s tackling in the last 5 minutes was playing for keeps (think when he smashed Maynard in the GF)
Couldn’t agree more with Skeet on Taryn Thomas. Anyone who has done what he has done should not be allowed back on a football field in the AFL again. Forget about him.
I say this wildcard draw is based on nothing but how unfair is this to Hawthorn. What about West Coast 17 wins and 5 losses in 2011 finishing 4th, that's pretty stiff and being the first side to miss top 4 on 16 wins. AFL didn't say boo about that, but they did give the Bulldogs the week off and the only reason they were able to win the 2016 Premiership.
Schoey, some Eagles fans believe, for some reason, that because you played for West Coast, you will be supportive of the club regarding its performances and decisions forevermore irrespective of the objective truth.
Flynn is a log. He may get more hit outs than Williams but Bailey competes a lot harder and gets more clearances.
Eagles must go after English.
Regarding Taryn Thomas, well Ross Lyon does have a history of guiding off the rail indigenous player back on track and carve out amazing careers. Aka Sonny Walters and Michael Johnson. Thomas is paying the price, hopefully he has learnt and doesn't everyone deserves a second chance. Friggen amazing skills
How does less bye rounds remove a week of the season? Theres 24 rounds, each team plays 23+ a bye.
This league still doesn’t have each team play each other twice and yet we want to create another pointless round?
Not the finest listener questions this week but love the show. Keep em coming !
