It started with a roar and ended in tears. The Power demonstrated what it takes to be a top four side, whilst a gallant Freo were unable to execute when it mattered. Is this a similar tale? Is the team on the up? Are we being overly optimistic? In this episode, the boys run through the aforementioned whilst still battling the seven stages of grief, and oh boy, there are some listener's questions worth debating!

A brutal loss for a gallant Freo outfit has knocked our season to the canvas, and with one game left, there is still much to play for (including a finals spot pending results) The season is not dead yet, but oh boy do we need some love! In this episode, the Great Man Duck is back (thank God), and Oz happily hands over the reins to the man who is coming off a run-up Michael Holding would be proud of (look him up young bloods for those of you who have no idea who the legend is).

A disappointing result amongst some standout performances. Freo are not out of finals, but finals are on a knife edge. In this episode we examine the game and look forward to where to. Seven stages of grief in one half indeed!

It was the worst of times (1st half), it was the best of times (2nd half)... With a strong sense of physicality back in vogue the Dockers arm wrestled the Eagles early and then launched from the top turnbuckle in the premiership qtr to take ownership of the game. In this episode Oz is joined by Simo as they deep dive into the game, with a special twist centred around the true emotions of a Freo supporter.

To mark the Starlight Purple Haze game the mighty Freo Dockers put the Demons to the sword early and declared themselves September ready. We may be a little shy on dropping the F-bomb, but with Finals on the horizon the Dockers can dare to dream. In this episode Oz is joined by the Cobblers Chat stalwarts Simo and Sean Warne. Shout out to the great man Duck who is enjoying time away from the pod and will be back to take over in the not too distant future.

After three-quarters of being in front, the Dockers succumbed to the Greenlight footy from the Hawks and reinforced the difficulty of the longest trip in the AFL. Strong performances are discussed, along with the traditional B and D. Peel talk raises some questions which feeds into the listener's questions.

On a dark and stormy night (close to it), a big purple cyclone ripped through the Tigers and warmed the Freo faithful with a performance that took fans back to the times of Pavalicious. Another great team performance has the listener questions peaking, with Peel talk and a sneaky look forward with September in mind.

In a stirring contest at the SCG, the Dockers gave a masterclass on 'How everyone playing their role is the blueprint for success'. However, true to the mantra that it's never as good and never as bad, we stop short of booking the bus and keep it real with where the season is at. Some great listener's questions and a very long session of 'the good' in the opening segment.
