It's an Espresso Edition (by our standards) of the pod this week and Josh, Nick & Ivka dive into the Dockerty Cup semi finals and catch-up round games.
With a 3-1 upset win over Avondale, South Melbourne are officially 'Box Office' again. How has Sinisa Cohadzic transformed the playing style in the space of a few months? Meanwhile, a strange Avondale XI has the pod scratching our heads.
Over at Olympic Village, Heidelberg put a beatdown on helpless VPL2 opposition, as Nunawading's magical run comes to a close.
Elsewhere, Knights and Oakleigh play out a six-goal thriller that went right to the wire, and Josh was in attendance at CB Smith to make sure the lights stayed on for Brunswick Juventus v Werribee City.
Plus, all our predictions for Round 22, as the title race and the battle for the top six heat up, and it's crunch time for the sides still marooned in the bottom three.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
