The doubters have been silenced, the form keeps on building, and Jack (not Jackson!) Payne has announced himself on the big stage.

This week, we are so excited be joined by 2001 Brownlow medallist and club legend Jason Akermanis to reflect on his incredible career. Aker also gives us his take on Will Ashcroft’s brilliant goal, which of his former teammates he would least like to be coached by, and what he’d like his statue to look like at the rebuilt Gabba.

Also this week:

-We review the first ever Roar Deal live event (spoiler: we’re doing it again!)

-The upcoming anniversary game of Mike’s heated run-in with Fages

-What’s going on with the upside down 2’s in the Lions graphics department?

And much more!
