🏉 Ash is back with the Bottom Six Review – the battlers, the basement dwellers, the blokes who made September their holiday month.


🏉 From West Coast’s historically bad season, to Richmond’s cubs biting, North’s baby steps, Essendon’s disappearing act, Melbourne’s dysfunction, and Carlton’s car crash – it’s all here.


🏉 Predictions vs reality, who’s in, who’s out, draft hands, and even a song that sums up where each club’s ...

🦁 Gday Lions fans and boy do we have a huge episode for you!


🦁 We take a quick walk through preliminary final week, revisit a couple of key talking points from our massive semi final win and Ash is diving deep into

a hot debate in Lions land: is this current finals run actually hotter than the glory days of the three-peat? By listener request, we’re rewinding to the mid-90s Bears and early Lions years – a run of five finals in...

Finals footy just went nuclear. 


🏉 Hawthorn stormed into Adelaide, punted the minor premiers out of September, and left the Crows with nothing but tram tickets back to Glenelg. Gunston wound back the clock, Newcombe went full caffeine-fuelled maniac, and Sicily gave Taylor Walker the longest night of his career.


🏉 Up north, the Lions brushed aside the Suns in a QClash semi that turned ugly real quick. Dunkley tackled l...

🚨 EMERGENCY POD 🚨


🦁 Well, well, well… the “most anticipated QClash ever” came with all the hype of a Marvel movie trailer — and ended like a dodgy meat pie at the Gabba. Tasted good for the first bite, then you realised you’d been conned.


🦁 Gold Coast came out swinging with two quick goals, but Brisbane just smiled, tied it up, and then flicked the finals switch. 


🦁 From there the Lions pulled the Suns apart like...

🦁 Ash is back, and it’s time to talk Round 5 W footy the only way we know how — with way too much Lions bias and just enough nonsense to keep you laughing.


🦁 If you’re heading to the ground or parked on the couch with snacks, we’ve got all the when, where, and how-to-watch covered. We’ll run through the ins and outs (who’s back and who got dropped like a hot rock at a day spa), and what it all means for the...

🏉 Two semi finals.


🏉 Two massive storylines.


🏉 On Friday night, Adelaide face Hawthorn with history hanging over their heads — no minor premier has gone out in straight sets since 1983. The Crows could steady the ship or collapse into pub-trivia infamy, while the Hawks are rolling in with nothing to lose and plenty of chaos to cause.


🏉 Then Saturday night… the biggest QClash ever. Brisbane and Gold Coast under the ligh...

September footy doesn’t care about your ladder position, your losing streak, or your excuses.

Seventeen points down at three-quarter time, the Crows circling, Adelaide Oval rocking — and then Brisbane flicked the switch. In six minutes of ruthless brilliance, the Lions stormed home with three unanswered goals to pinch a heart-stopping win.


Ash takes you inside the madness: Taylor Smith’s ice-cool match-winner, Courtney Hodder’s genius footy brain, and a backline that turned into a brick wall when it mattered most. Plus: ...

G’day Lions fans — Ash is here with another brutally honest take on Brisbane’s finals campaign.


Friday night at the ‘G was ugly. Geelong outworked, outran and outright embarrassed us, and walking out of that ground it felt like the empire was cracking. 


To make matters worse, Lachie Neale’s season is done, Eric Hipwood is sidelined until mid-2026, and our premiership defence looks shakier than a Scotch Finger biscuit dip...

Ash is back with a double-dose of finals fever on 5 Minute Warning.


First up, it’s Adelaide vs Collingwood at Adelaide Oval — a qualifying final with more spice than a Vindaloo. Can the Crows turn their minor premiership into September dominance, or will the Pies’ backs-to-the-wall mentality pinch it late?


Then it’s Geelong vs Brisbane under the Friday night lights at the ‘G. The Cats bring flair and fresh legs, while the Li...

Fresh studio, fresh gear, same old chaos — Ash is back with a monster episode of the Lions Lowdown. 


From the tribunal farce to the absolute circus that is footy media, nothing’s off-limits.


Then it’s time to dive deep into our Round 24 clash with the Hawks: wasted chances, Rayner’s rollercoaster, Lohmann’s spark, Harris Andrews’ defensive masterclass, Zorko’s 300th and Chuck’s 250th both celebrated in style.
