AFL bends rules but still botches Maynard, Miller penalties
About this episode
The episode discusses the penalties for Brayden Maynard and Touk Miller, the coaching campaign of James Hird, and various player performances in the AFL.
As the fallout from the fiery clash between Gold Coast and Collingwood continues, Sam McClure, Jake Niall and Caroline Wilson argue Brayden Maynard and Touk Miller should have been suspended for umpire contact. They also discuss the "rockstar" momentum gathering behind James Hird's campaign for the Essendon coaching job, while Josh Fraser and Steven King show the benefits of a thorough apprenticeship. Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera's scintillating form, Jeremy Cameron's underwhelming performances and the question of where Lachie Neale will play in 2027 are also on our agenda.
