The Roar

Cam Rose and Josh Elliott are in the cockpit this week, reviewing a round that either completely destroyed or thoroughly confirmed what you thought you knew about the 2016 AFL season.

As ever, the boys spend some time discussing North Melbourne and whether they are, in fact, any good. Is Cam coming around to the idea that they are? You be the judge. Josh and Cam ponder whether West Coast are at risk of falling out of finals contention, with a much improved team lurking just outside of the eight primed to pinch their spot. Coaching is another hot topic, and the guys discuss whether the stewards of Brisbane, Collingwood and Richmond are in trouble with 10 games remaining. That, plus loads more!

Josh Elliott and Ryan Buckland are on deck this week, to kick the tyres of the teams sitting atop the ladder after eight rounds. Are North Melbourne a threat for the flag, even though they're undefeated? The boys switch to Fremantle, and offer some different views on where the club is at, and what is a reasonable course of action from here. The best two players in the competition are obvious, but who is the third? One member of the team goes a little crazy. Finally, the guys rehash their pre-season bet that 'no coach would be sacked during the season', and Josh declares it might be time for him to brush up on his West Coast knowledge in preparation for being on the losing side.

Josh Elliott and Jay Croucher are in the chair this week, as they discuss what they learned from a surprising Round Five of the AFL season. The guys talk about North Melbourne's chance at a flag, ponder which team has been the most disappointing to date, query whether there is something in the water out west, and decide that one team needs to be shot into space for crimes against football.

In this episode of The Roar AFL Podcast, Jay Croucher and Ryan Buckland discuss the failing of Richmond and Collingwood, which are adding to the pain being doled out by Melbourne's other traditional "big clubs" in Carlton and Essendon. The guys do some digging on Richmond in particular, discussing some of their challenges and ways out of their current mire. Port Adelaide also get a bit of a touch up, and there's some cordial disagreement over Fremantle's 2016 prospects.

In this week's edition of The Roar AFL Podcast, Cam and Josh talk about the impact of injuries to veterans Bob Murphy and Aaron Sandilands, discuss the prospects of each of the competition's remaining undefeated teams, and have a look ahead to three important match ups in Round 4. Cam and Josh shed some light on the fan feelings towards North Melbourne (good feelings) and Richmond (bad, very bad, feelings) - and have a bit of fun with some audio from Damien Hardwick's post-match press conference. The boys also share their views on whether there'll be a coach sacked mid year, and Josh doubles down on a bet with fellow Roarer Ryan Buckland.

In this week's edition of The Roar AFL Podcast, Ryan and Josh from theroar.com.au run their rulers over the round just gone, cooling off some of the scorching hot takes that have been flying around in the process. They discuss the surprising disappointment of a Friday night game without Carlton's involvement, whether the Saturday Showdown told us more about the Crows or Power, and ponder just how terrible the West Coast Eagles are when it comes to Hawthorn and the MCG.

Neither Cam or Jay were available to give their two minute take of the weekend's action - we haven't heard from them since Friday night - so Ryan leads things off with a quick word on the difference between process and outcome. In other words, scoring might have fallen a touch this round, but the standard of football was, for the most part, excellent.
