About this episode

The hosts discuss their team's disappointing performance and injuries while looking ahead to the next game.

Just when you’re starting to enjoy footy again for the year, it goes and breaks your heart. It’s only mid-April, but we’re already up against it after suffering our third loss for the year against the Demons in a Sunday afternoon nailbiter. With some questionable form, some even more questionable umpiring calls, and a new set of injuries to worry about, it was a gloomy afternoon at the MCG. It’s probably fair to say this is our first gloomy episode of the podcast for the year too, as we try to turn things around ahead of Sunday’s long-awaited Gabba return against the Crows. This week on the podcast: -Our concerns about the tackle stats -Who replaces Noah Answerth? -Dom’s Twitter chat with David King And much more!
