WTF! What the Footy!

Five weeks to go in the AFL's regular season, and we go deep on the league’s remaining skeds. And what’s going on with Greater Western? And Sydney? And Carlton?!? Also, despite what you may hear, the kids are just fine. At least in Essendon. Honest. And I’m told the chicken was excellent.

This week, the What the Footy! crew is breaking down five crazy games and their respective repercussions. Cab tiy match the match? Plus, what is wrong with Christian Petracca? Can anyone stop Freo (or even Brisbane)? Also, one of us may have gone too far with a certain graphical interpretation to a certain stinging fanbase. And that guy — same one — is doing his show from the Titanic, apparently !

Greetings and salutations to the good souls and cranky trolls on the blessed platforms of social media! The Blues, who will never let you down, are letting no one down. Greater Western Sydney gets some much-earned love. Does Port have the power to stretch its season, and does the dad joke near the end land like the slipping Suns? Tune in and find out … !

Does your contender have the stuff? The juice? The basement? Well, do they have what it takes to take the flag? We discuss it at length (because that’s all we know) as we wave bye-bye to the byes and the eight week sprint begins !

Robert and Joe talk too much! But hopefully we “say” plenty! This week, we’re braggin’ on the Baggers and the bettin’, while shouting out the late, great Mike Lange, shouting down some weirdo schedule ideas, and throwing a no-no no-no mention in there. St. Kilda needs help, and the Suns are setting fast. All on this week’s episode !

Plenty of us are stepping in it on this episode, as we explore the trials of the Suns and track the rise and fall of stocks on the run. Adelaide is looking good. Port Adelaide, not so much. Han and Chewie are cool, too!

We talk about the troubling trend of slurs in the Australian Football League, and a Devil’s den that is getting more than its due. Also, the latest on our lovefest with the Blues and Dees and Roos. No, not the Roos. Never the Roos.

We’re flying around the league this week with our midseason report, and we dare leave no stone — or fanbase — unmentioned and unturned … ! … Also, find out why 1:15a starts are no good for the working man!

Scott Pendlebury makes history, but can Collingwood keep it going? ... The league loses an honorable gent, while we retrace a Lions disaster, a Carlton resurgence, and a side that keeps costing one of us money. Note: We taped this episode before Brad Scott was "sacked" as Essendon coach, but the move was not unexpected to us.

I guess that’s why they call them the Blues … wait, they won?!? We delve into Carlton's much-needed victory under "caretaker" coach Josh Fraser. ... And how much is a playoff spot worth? Worth sitting a guy that can help you through? Did Collingwood do right by Scott Pendlebury? ...Oh, and indigenous names, part two.
