The Back Pocket

Episode Thirty Three - Rossball Ugly, Vossball Bad

This week we talk about how Collingwood are becoming annoyingly likeable, St Kilda are awful to watch, and where to now for West Coast? The Round Eight votes in the Scarlett Silvagni Medal feature some familiar faces coupled with some new ones. Is eating grass the best way to find the footy? What can't you get suspended for now?Find out on The Back Pocket.

Episode Thirty Two - What to do with Team 20

This week a recap of round seven of footy, as well as what to do with a twentieth team now that Tassie as been confirmed. How many confirmations do we need for news before it's official (Stadium, Tassie Team, Dillon) and is Ross pushing people out of St Kilda? 

Episode Thirty One - Tassie Time

There's a new AFL CEO, there's going to be a team in Tasmania, and we prepare for a weekly bye. Rory Lobb enjoyed a beer named after him, Freo fans are bloody weird, and Darcy Moore might be the best captain in the comp.
Make sure you clean your undies, as Jack and Alastair discuss the happenings in round six.

Episode Thirty - Hunter and Gather Round

Gather round for this week's Scarlett Silvagni Medal votes, why teams should temper their expectations after round five, and who needs to start getting their All Australian Blazer signed. Dimma is an All Australian Blazer of a different kind, and the worst commentated game of all time. 

Episode Twenty Nine - Live From Adelaide (From Perth)

This week we saw an Easter Monday massacre. Are St Kilda good? Are Port good now? Who is the most underrated defender in the AFL? Can Ross Lyon coach? Who is raising their knee in the ruck contest? We won't answer any of those questions with any clarity, but we sure will recap round four!

Episode Twenty Eight - The Kinkley Kosh Combination

As we all anticipated, St Kilda are undefeated on top, and Geelong are winless on the bottom. We talk coaching pressure, who goes where, and who was unlucky to miss out. We had Gabba-level technical difficulties this week, so look forward to the abrupt ending.

Episode Twenty Seven - Unworried Owen

Alastair and Jack unpack Round Two of the 2023 AFL Season. A few surprise teams are 0-2, and a few even more surprising teams are 2-0. Crazy Bevo takes his crazy to weird new places, the AFL remains consistently inconsistent on concussion, and rules being introduced on a Tuesday after Round Two.

Episode Twenty Six - An Equal and Opposite Overreaction

Round One of 2023 is over, and out come the overreactions. Collingwood are flag favourites, Brisbane are written off, and Freo can't win with Fyfe forward. Join Jack and Alastair for the Round One Scarlett Silvagni Medal votes for Defender of the Year, as well as some coherent points mixed in with ramblings as the lads muse on the storylines that arose from Round 1.

Episode Twenty Five - A Plague of Daniels

Last episode before the season commences! A few pre season predictions, a game of who would win, and some last minute observations before the 2023 AFL season starts. 

Episode Twenty Four - Main Event! Gherig v Hall! Not Clickbait!

Pre Season is over baby! Outside of a few leaked coaches box recordings, everyone is ready to roll into round one... next week. So lets talk about what we saw, and what to expect, before our round one preview next week!
