The SuperFooty Podcast

Eddie McGuire's comments about Caroline Wilson and Brad Scott's attack on the umpires are dominating the footy agenda and Michael Warner, Sam Edmund and Anthony Hudson are at the coalface. They debate how serious this blow is to McGuire's job as Collingwood president and what penalty Scott will face from the AFL. Plus the incredible form of 'Dangerwood' at Geelong, why Lance Franklin loves the wet and a bizarre case of mistaken identity for Hawthorn champ Dermott Brereton while on the road for Fox Footy - all that and more in a technically challenged edition of the SuperFooty Podcast.

Herald Sun journalists Michael Warner and Jon Anderson run the rule over Round 12 AFL action with a strong focus on Collingwood and Nathan Buckley.

After a disastrous loss to North Melbourne, Michael Warner reveals his five-point plan to save Richmond. And one of them isn't sacking the coach. Mick, Sam Edmund and Anthony Hudson also tackle Collingwood's problems, the rise of the Blues and ask whether Melbourne should get a pass mark for season 2016 so far, and if Jimmy Bartel is the best wet weather player of all time. And Sam and Huddo reveal just how cold it was in the Hobart press box. All that and more in the Round 11 edition of the SuperFooty Podcast.

Does the resurgence of Carlton tell us more about Brendon Bolton or Mick Malthouse? Is it a skill to draw high contact free kicks? Anthony Hudson, Sam Edmund and Michael Warner debate the hot topics of Round 10 including the wide open premiership race, Collingwood's injury crisis, Richmond's mid-season Grand Final and the car mix-up that left Jason Dunstall stranded and grumpy in Adelaide. All that and more in this week's edition of the SuperFooty Podcast.

Paul Roos might have missed it, but Anthony Hudson got the controversial memo about deliberate rushed behinds. He reveals its contents and debates the consequences with Michael Warner and Sam Edmund. Also on the agenda: the GWS juggernaut, Patrick Dangerfield's goalkicking yips, Nathan Buckley's testy relationship with the media, should the AFL have a send-off rule and will Fremantle win a game this season?

CARLTON "infinitely better" under Brendon Bolton, oh the life of a Tigers fan and did the Bombers actually beat North Melbourne?Our supercharged SuperFooty podcast panel is back after a big Round 8 to discuss all the action, including the Tigers' thrilling win (so yes, that means Mick Warner has returned!) and Carlton's continued rise.Geelong's win over the Crows means it's high fives all round on the panel, and the boys are up and about.But not all's peachy, with footy in Queensland "toxic", Lions coach Justin Leppitsch really under the pump and Mick believing the AFL needs to take responsibility for the Gold Coast's current struggles.Sam Edmund seemed a little bemused by the reaction of Bombers fans after their loss to the Kangas — a team that continues to fly under the radar despite a 8-0 start to the season."North just keep winning and no-one keeps talking about them."Plus the boys bring up the 'T' word with Fremantle (are they tanking?), Sammy reckons we could be on track for a rematch of 2008 and Mick has seen this year's Rising Star winner ... who's lucky to be alive.It's all covered in a big Round 8 SuperFooty podcast.

A fresh face joins the podcast to debate which rookies need to be culled this week to make room for Christian Petracca. Gary Ablett, Tom Rockliff and Ben Keays are also on the agenda and a shock injury rocks Team Gardiner. Get the best SuperCoach advice from Al Paton, Gilbert Gardiner and Kate Salemme.

THE Blues came with "an appetite" while Collingwood is in no man's land after Saturday's disappointing loss to their arch rival.So where to now for Nathan Buckley and the Pies? It's the main talking point in this week's SuperFooty Podcast.Sam Edmund says while injuries have played a part at the Westpac Centre, he's not buying."You don't lose to a side that was supposed to finish 18th this year and is in the early stages of a rebuild ... This is a side almost in decay somehow."Meanwhile, the coach's position also comes up for debate ... can Bucks coach? The boys say it's hard to tell."Right now the evidence is starting to become compelling that he's struggling to get the message through to his players," Jon Anderson says, while also pointing to the calibre of players to have left in recent seasons as "a worry" for the Pies.The shot clock and finale to the North Melbourne-St Kilda caused plenty of debate, and the boys are split on their opinion of the countdown clock.Etihad Stadium was the scene of plenty of drama at the weekend, but Eddie Betts didn't have a big say in Saturday night's contest — and former premiership coach Denis Pagan thinks he knows why.Meanwhile, Sammy thinks we may have witnessed the birth of the AFL's new great rivalry.Geelong is the new flag favourite according to the bookies, but the boys aren't yet convinced they're the team to beat.Again, we go through the premiership contenders, but Ando has some strong words for one team many think can seriously challenge. "They stink." Who is he referring to?Port Adelaide returned to the winner's list, but have they turned the corner? Who's more likely to turn the corner out of the Power and the improving demons? Can you trust either side?Plus the Swans look ominous, especially with the big bloke up forward booting sausage rolls. Can Buddy top the ton?It's all covered in a big Round 7 SuperFooty podcast.
