It’s been a stressful week, with close games getting our cortisol levels rising as well as our first draw. We also got the AFLW season opener announced. Plus, we throwback to when Port Adelaide & Collingwood fought over fashion.

This week, Monica shares this TikTok from St Kilda featuring player’s mums and Marielle shares this TikTok from Sydney showcasing personality at its best. We’ll explain what happened to the Brisbane Lions’ High School Musical social edit that is now M.I.A.
