[60 Yards Out]

isn’t carlton derived from the Greek, meaning steaming turd?

“Carlton” Is what they call a cognate — a word that means the same thing in multiple languages; and yes, that thing is “steaming turd.”

Another reason I'd like the Lions to win. This kooky character going out as a premiership player

He's got a bit of Travis Cloke about him - a bit "unusual".

It's not the old suburb - it's the supporters and football club - collectively known as turdus maximus collectivus

So that’s why what they’re cooking has such a putrid stench emanating from it.

Even by that metric, we’re still better than Carlol.

I hate, let me count......17 teams on that list.
There are just some teams that dial the hate up to overload, and you all know which ones.

I used to really hate Essendon but now they are just meh. I reckon the lack of hate towards them would really grind at their fans. That feeling of irrelevance.

I hate essendon also but they are making it hard to remember why. They just keep digging holes for themselves

I worked in Essendon for a number of years, so I don't need to remember why I hate them.

Yep, that would do it

Again the radio calls trump the inept and poor commentary from the Seven crew. Thank goodness Fox are calling all the games next year

Sadly Ch7 still have exclusive rights to the Grand Final.

On Friday Dwayne said that next year’s GF will be available on Fox.

But will Fox have their own commentators? And will it be ad free?

I didn't hear that about Fox & the GF.. unless it's changed, from 2025 it was to be :

• All AFL and AFLW home and away games and finals (excluding the AFL Grand Final) will be broadcast on Foxtel and Kayo, with their own commentary teams

The AFL has announced the biggest broadcast rights deal in Australian sporting history

A caller rang complaining about not being able to watch the GF in 4k and I thought Dwayne said that it would be on Kayo next year. It seems that’s not the case. Maybe I misunderstood.

Damn had my hopes up for a second.

Guess if it's us, you can still enjoy the replay with Fox commentary.

Hopefully there will be a few changes to the 7 commentary next year.
