The Footy with Broden Kelly

The Footy with Broden Kelly

The Footy with Broden Kelly is a weekly podcast presented by Aunty Donna’s coolest, most salt of the earth member, Broden Kelly. This is a weekly show that covers footy, the weird topics happening around the footy, and stranger, stupider, more pointless points of discussion in the footy world. With absolutely zero footy talent and even less expertise, Kelly and his mate Tom chat about the weekly happenings of footy from outside the inner sanctum. With regular guests from the comedy world, this pod aims to be a home for the alternative footy fan.

PRELIM WEEK! North v Dees. Lions v Blues. We cannot bloody wait. Marnie Vinall is away this week, so Hester and Aila Brown once again step up - and how. And - bet you thought you wouldn't be hearing a pitch-perfect karaoke performance of Nikki Webster's 'Strawberry Kisses' on the pod today. Guess what.

It's AFLW semi final week! Carlton play the Hawks on Saturday night for a place in a prelim and we're very grateful star Blue Mimi Hill could find some time to talk to us (again) on pod. This week's episode also covers the AFL's new wildcard round and why the Blues are burying sausages around Princes Park...? A big thank you to the extraordinary Hester Brown for her time co-hosting The Footy. We have all been better for her comp...

Hester Brown and Marnie Vinall are back at the helm, and on the eve of the AFLW finals series it's a pleasure to welcome in footy expert and friend of the show Kate McCarthy to steer us through literally everything you need to know. Get around Kate and her excellent work ⁠here⁠. And yes, the best part of the show, Aila Brown's hot take, is back. With a bang.

It's Halloween soon. Marnie got her hands on Broden's Cowdoy costume. This will mean a lot to some and nothing at all to others. Figure out where you stand here. The Roos are in a record-breaking mood, the Carlton and GWS and Gold Coast and Collingwood players had to flee from lightning, and the name of Coffs Harbour's stadium is quite capable of derailing this podcast.

From a jaunt around Britain and Ireland return Broden and Tom, armed each with a veritable novella of culinary experience and a hankering for the good ship footy pod. It's great to have them back. Marnie's penned a few great yarns this week. One is about footy fatigue and how it affects the attention fans can give the AFLW, which you can read about here. She also went for a dip in the Williamstown surf. We break down the why in ...

In August of this year, Mitch Brown became the first AFL player to identify publicly as bisexual. It was a significant moment in the game's history. We applaud Mitch for his bravery and the example he has set for countless people across the country. Today, Mitch and his partner Lou Keck join Marnie Vinall and Hester Brown on The Footy, and you'll hear the voices of Aila and Ben Brown too as we weave our way through Mitch and...

It was an excellent Grand Final. Scores were level at half time. Through a fair part of the third quarter, things were close and tense. And then the Lions took the game away, took the season away, and will take the premiership cup back to Brisbane for a second consecutive year.

Like a sailor from the deck of a departing ocean liner, it's a tearful, impassioned farewell to the Gold Coast Suns for AFL season 2025. Unlike a sailor from the deck of a departing ocean liner, the farewell is set to Broden Kelly's rather magnificent take on Semisonic's 1998 classic, 'Closing Time'. If that doesn't seal the deal for you, quite frankly, I don't know what will. And in excellent news ... the official team of The F...
