The Footy Dictionary

Harper Pestinger and Hamish O'Brien are joined by CODE Sports' Daniel Cherny for the inaugural episode of The Things About Football series.

First up, the tribunal:

- What is a sealer?

- Why Geelong's premiership has been irreparably tainted

- The language of the trade period

Then, Daniel's things about football - three niche loves and three niche hates:

- The reading of scores in simple goal and behind terms

- Club songs playing when teams enter the arena

- The day the fixture comes out

- Clubs' constant lying

- Greg Champion perenially being overlooked on grand final day

- Matchday ‘entertainment’
