Unlike Carlton, Paul Roos would never release his post-team address and feels 'that's betraying the players'. Is it helpful for Simon Goodwin to reveal there may have been personal reasons affecting Max Gawn's on-field performance? Andrew McQualter defends Harley Reid's gesture as 'theatre' and how difficult is it to just have 18 players on the field? Roosy recalls one particular Sydney match in 2008.

Matt Clinch and Cameron Ling work their way through round two as Collingwood spoiled Footscray's celebrations and there were some major blowouts.

New Saint Jack Macrae is having a wonderful start to his time at Moorabbin and he joins the show to work through St Kilda's upset win against Geelong.

AFL Saturday with Corbin Middlemas, Mick Malthouse and Luke Ball, joined by AFL CEO Andrew Dillon in the box at the MCG.

Having played under Brad Scott for two seasons, Dyson Heppell weighs in on whether Bombers fans should feel confident he's the man to take them back to finals footy.

Why a bye in round two could be Damien Hardwick’s worst nightmare, and we are introduced the AFL’s newest mascot - Rum’un the Tassie Devil.

Three players are off to the tribunal today, Roosy explains how clubs decide to challenge MRO decisions.  Fremantle haven’t cracked the code, Longmuir said they ‘weren’t ready’ for their round one clash with Geelong, do fans deserve better? And what did Paul find ‘super frustrating’ about coaching Melbourne?

Huge winning margins dominated round one, but which teams would be most disappointed losing in that fashion? Jackson Archer has been handed a three-week suspension after colliding with Luke Cleary – is that reasonable? And Paul Roos says Carlton need to be more selfless if they want to win more games.

Cameron Ling's highlight for the round is the way Bailey Smith lit up Kardinia Park in his first outing as a Cat, while Matt Clinch praises a gutsy performance from Richmond.
