Dyl & Friends
Dylan invites interesting and notable guests to share their stories in a humorous and lighthearted chat, with plenty of banter mixed in as well. It’s like a hug from an old mate, it’s incredibly warm, positive, and comforting. He touches on career and life highs and lows, taps into mindset and psyche and ultimately uncovers what makes his guests happy and successful. You don’t need to know the guests before listening, Dyl will have you thinking they’re your best mates when the 60 or so minutes is up. *Description provided by Dylan Buckley's mum.
Episodes
Yessss Faffers welcome back to another week!
We covered plenty of ground in this ep, with highlights including Dyl's analysis of Collingwood and Carlton's lists, Sam Lalor's singing, Brett's fireplace usage, Mack's slow dancing with Mabior Chol and more! We also uncovered the biggest question in footy from the weekend... who wears #4 at the Eagles next year?!
Enjoy!

We were lucky enough to be joined by former Magpie, Dog and all round good bloke Travis Cloke following his game for Heathmere as part of the 2025 Carlton Draft.
Brett, Dyl & Mick went along for the ride as we reflected on Travis' career which included the 2010 premiership and a best and fairest award as a 19-year-old back in 2007! In between all of this, we still looked ahead to another big week...

Yessss welcome back to another Weekend Review!
The mood was much better this week—no hard outs, no quad injuries, and fewer phone calls! Mick and Brett kicked things off by secretly playing a game of Buckley Bingo, trying to get Dyl to drop as many FAF clichés as possible (it only lasted 10 minutes).
After that, we broke down Mick’s Roos and their big win over Carlton, laughed about how Dyl had no clue who Essendon’s new ruck...

This week on Dyl & Friends, we’re joined by former #1 draft pick, Collingwood star, and now Head of Development at the Pies, Josh Fraser.
Frase was one of my coaches back in the day at the Blues and I have him to thank for so many good lessons learnt in my life.
Josh was taken with the top pick in the 1999 draft and walked into one of the biggest clubs in the country as a teenager. He went on to play 200+ games in the black...

The boys regroup after a tense episode earlier in the week, doing their best to preview Round 15 without yelling at each other. Dyl whips out his Australian Juniors tracksuit—much to Brett and Mick’s dismay. We dive into some classic 2016 WAFL Reserves stats, debut a brand-new segment, and still manage to squeeze in a full preview of the upcoming weekend of footy.
Enjoy!

Yesss, welcome back to another weekend review!
It was a somber start to the show as we dissected Brett's short-lived appearance for Coleambally on Saturday as part of the Carlton Draft...he only managed to stay on the park for five minutes! We also welcomed Mick back after his two weeks in Perth, and Dyl’s lack of analysis was on full display as Brett threw some hard-hitting footy questions his way.

Yes my beautiful friends this week on Dyl & Friends, we’ve got one of my all-time favourite guests, Paul Taylor.
