Dane Swan is talking footy and irrelevant life issues. Mainly the latter. Host "Racetrack" Ralphy Horowitz is joined by Samantha Riches as Dane’s two regular friends talking irregular gibberish and generally just ripping the piss.

A cracking guest friend today, the highly respect Dr Peter Larkins joins us and we find out how he got his start in the media, and the extraordinary scenario he found himself in with The Duck at Waverley Park in his very first game!
The Doc tells us a couple of the most significant injuries he's ever seen. He tells us about getting chewed out by Geoff Walsh over how he reported one players return form injury.
AFL Maths Science is back this week for Round 7, and before we get to it Dane expresses his displeasure with Josh Rachele 'fucking' his multi last week. And he reckons everyone needs to calm the farm on Harley Reid saying that while he may well be a great player, he's not even in the Top 5 of the West Coast 2024 Best and Fairest count yet.
We have some domestic chat. Dane is in trouble at home. Taylor reckons he is shithouse at ...
Kate McCarthy, former AFLW player and current Triple M Footy commentator is our guest friend today, and Swanny wants to know what the hell he has to do to get a gig with Triple M as he reckons everyone except him has one.
He explains Swan FC to Kate. She is suitably impressed (or is she?) and suggests a slogan - Swan FC, Any Where, Any Time, Any Price. Kate explains why she came to Melbourne and how she got into footy commentary...
Round 6 of the AFL Season and Swanny & Ralphy are guessing lines, giving tips, ripping the piss and generally being unprofessional.
Swanny talks about Nathan Murphy's loss for the Pies, and explains how the AFLPA payment system works for players who are forced to retire due to injury, how much do they get? Swanny runs through it.
In the line guessing, Swanny pumps up The Cats saying 'Geelong are a remarkable team'. And t...
A great pod today, with guest friend Corbin Middlemas, ABC radio superstar. But first we get the rundown from Dane on the big boxing match, what did he think of Daisy's performance? The phrase 'not much chop' may have been used.
Corbin reveals what Mick Malthouse loves to do every time he is in Adelaide, and what Mick is really like. Hard arse or good bloke? Dane got a whack from Mick before the finals when he was playing, and h...
Round 5 of the AFL Season and this week Swanny and Ralphy guess the lines, give their tips, and generally talk shit. They each give their best tip of the round.
Swanny also makes the bold claim that for the right price there is nobody on the planet he wouldn't take on in the boxing ring.
And Ralphy gives some top notch racing tips.
Follow us, share the pod with a mate, and support us if you feel the urge. If not, then as y...
Online this week as Dane continues giving back around the ....Well, in Adelaide as thats where Gather Round is and he can sniff out an envelope or 6 when they are up for the grabbing!
He is also fighting Dale, incase you've been under a rock!k
We talk about his diet, fight prep and strategy and then get in to the Round 4 Maths Science incase thats what you came for!
Last one with Samantha for the foreseeable future, hopefully there is...
Caroline Wilson got a lot of air time on this weeks pod, Dane even called Ralphy the male Carro. Perhaps we should get her on?!
We hear some little sound grabs from our friend Dermott Brereton giving Dane a drive by compliment and chat Dane's theory on how pre season changed so they can get a root via instagram.
We discussed the hot topic of the AFLWs drug problem and why Dane thinks with no illicit drug policy in the AFLW we will so...
It is Round 3 of the AFL Premiership season & this week for a little bit of fun the lads had to guess what they thought the line would be for each game.
It's new, its different and its a world first.
There's a bit of shit talk in this one too plus some interesting takes on where sides are at on a sliding shit scale.
Ralphy gives his best racing tips too.
Enjoy this listen as we unpack the round ahead.

Hear how Jack's Mum walked in on Nic Naitanuii and while we didnt think we'd take that turn, we were relieved we did when some of the other topics covered were, well...not appropriate to be written in show notes!
Other topics that were discussed in the episode that we can mention here were Jack's take on what is like to be so shit at something you are supposed to be so good at and how he is not just male meat...thankfully he cleared...
Yes, this one does look long for a Maths Science Episode but thats because we don't forget about the people.
You come first so we open the show with a bunch of listener questions and then unpack the round ahead!

In this weeks episode of "Listener questions" our catch phrase was "Anything can happen"
We covered everything from Racing in the 80s to Boxing is a dangerous sport.
We discovered the Perfect Job for Eddie and discussed whatever that Helmut tap was?
There really is nothing we wont chat about...except whatever it was that was sent in and Ralphy censored from us...Must of been something juicy!
...and its all thanks to you the people.

We came out the gates strong this year, Heath came in! Here's a list of what we chatted about...
Mummy V Cox
Mick's individual dossiers - "the spray book"
Heath's rebuttal on the Sam Kerr arrest
Betting on footy and sticking fat to "not guilty"
Those who study poo
Helicopter timings at Dale's wedding
Life as a Pool side pest
What happens when fatigue kicks in
We then previewed the season starting with
Round by Round
Premiers for 2024
Colema...
Whell, here we are! Back for another go on the merry-go-round and much to Dane's surprise its actual footy starting this weekend, in Opening round.
His brain was pickled in this weeks part 1 with in minutes over the fact that this round will be played over two rounds, non consecutively.
Once he recovered, we unpacked what is a head in the clashes between
Syd V Melb
Lions V Carlton
Suns V Richmond
GWS V Collingwood
For your list...
Look there was another name we really wanted to call this episode (And you'll find out inside) but we value the fact that somehow we are still on air and wanted to stay that way for a little bit longer so here it is, enjoy it while it lasts.
The phrase "I don't know what that means?" was thrown around a lot and Dane's brain was pickled 2 mins in.
We chimed in on the Sam Kerr debate and discussed who handled it better, her or Heath Sh...
Incase you don't know, Dane has stepped outside his comfort zone and now hosts a cooking show!
We got an up date before trudging through the wonderful listener questions sent in by you, the people.
If you were expecting anything different this season you will be bitterly disappointed, if you're here for the same old nonsense... welcome back!

Here is a little bit on not much for your drive to work, or home from...or whenever you indulge in shit talk with Swanny and Friends.
Dane flew Jetstar so you can imagine he let us know what he wasn't impressed with and we raided the listener questions list which Ralphy pulled up on abruptly. He's also hardly on the mic, Its very us.
