The W with Sam Lane

Port Adelaide's astonishing run goes on, pipping Hawthorn to power into the prelim, but can they beat the undefeated Roos? Chy and Sam break down the two semi finals, plus preview the prelims, including the surprisingly lopsided Lions/Crows match-up. We're down to the final four in 2024!

Two teams have been sent packing, two teams are putting their feet up, and there's more mouth-watering clashes to come! Chy and Sam run through all the finals after week one, and preview the two semis we have this weekend. Plus, which ruck is our sneaky chance for the best and fairest award this season?

The finals are set, and there's some juicy match-ups waiting for us! Chy and Sam preview them all, and pull out one interesting thing to watch. Plus, Chy gives a grade for every other team that didn't make finals. It's a bumper episode as we head into the pointy end of the season!

We've got one home-and-away round left, and the eight can still be shuffled top-to-bottom! Chyloe and Sam go through all the permutations, and they ask: will Geelong be the best team to miss finals, or could they - or the Dees - scrape in? Plus, what happened to St Kilda this year? Also: reports of the Dogs' demise have been greatly exaggerated.

ABC Sport journalist Marnie Vinall joins Sam to discuss how the GWS men's Wacky Wednesday incident has affected women involved in footy, from the players to the fans. Plus, Marnie and Sam assess which teams can make the eight, with the Dees surging, and Essendon flailing. Also, what happened with that burst pipe at Vic Park?

Melbourne make it two wins from two in round seven to get their season back on track, but are they really finals contenders now? Plus Chyloe and Sam give the missing context around THAT Bulldogs loss to Essendon. And Chy rants joyfully about why the AFLW does Pride Round so well.

Port beat West Coast in Perth, and Chyloe and Sam have finally spotted them on the AFLW radar! Plus, we give fantastic Freo their flowers, with a 9-2 record beckoning. And we break down the full impact of the compressed fixturing on the players, the support staff, and the crowds this season. 

Brisbane sit at the peak of the AFLW and AFLM mountaintop, reigning premiers in both comps! Chyloe and Sam marvel at this feat, as well as run their eyes over another compressed AFLW round, including noting the Roos somehow getting better, and the Eagles winning again! Plus we assess the eight at the halfway point of the season.

Richmond cast Carlton aside and put the league on notice, North Melbourne were clear winners but has an issue with wet weather emerged? Plus, the Eagles get their third win; is it already their best ever AFLW season? Chyloe and Sam deliver their verdicts on all these questions and more, in a bumper round four pod!

The Crows put the Hawks in their place, and North walloped the Dees in round three, but the more surprising thing is St Kilda are STILL undefeated. Sam and Chyloe ask: are the Saints a real contender? Plus, we give Mon Conti and Aine Tighe their props after super wins for Richmond and Freo.
