    Best Footy Snacks? | The Carb Loaders Episode 11

    Hey, we’re The Carb Loaders - three mates who love footy and food a little too much! The Carb Loaders are back...but the ARC stopping play is not! After a controversial week with the ARC, the AFL has scrapped it's ability to overrule a decision once play has resumed. Which Hamish has some very strong opinions on. Then the boys discuss AFL.com's new top 25 players list - including the glazing of Nick Daicos and Nick Watson - before debating what truly are the top 3 snacks to have at the footy!

    Wayyy too Early 2026 Finals Predictions | The Carb Loaders Episode 10

    Hey, we’re The Carb Loaders - three mates who love footy and food a little too much! After a short break while a couple of the boys recovered from the sniffles, the Carb Loaders are back, and just in time for the ANZAC Day Round! An ice-cold Collingwood facing an actually half-decent looking Essendon has Jay and Hamish very scared. Then the boys complete their 2026 wayyy too early finals predictions, and Hamish's optimism for the Pies is only matched by Jay's pessimism. Plus, are North actually gonna be good? Then, finally, Sam teaches the boys how to play AFL Wavelength. Follow along on TikTok and Instagram: @thecarbloaders

Sam breaks down his near-nervous breakdown that came with attending the match, as Jay brings up the ethics behind the "intentional rushed behind."

    The CARBS are BACK | The Carb Loaders Ep 8

    The Carb Loaders...have returned? After a (non) brief and unplanned hiatus, the carb loaders are back...and we've actually got proper mics this time. Armed with an actual studio and a new lease on life, Jay, Sam and Hamish (along with Producer Guy, Fletch) are back bringing you their inspiring takes on the AFL. We cover the recent controversial Tribunal arguments - including Pendle's never wetting his bed as a child and Xerri helping McGrath with his Braveheart cosplay - and Sam relives his recent experience at Marvel Stadium with "cartwheel guy". After this, we have the long-awaited return of "Cost is Correct" inspired by the recent rises in fuel prices and finally, all the boys rank their top 5 Spider-Man movies of all time.

    Who would you pay $110,000 to have dinner with? | The Carb Loaders Episode 6

    Hey, we’re The Carb Loaders - three mates who love footy and food a little too much! Covid-19 has caught up with the Carb Loaders, which forced us to have our first-ever virtual episode of the Carb Loaders. But just because we’re not in the same room, doesn’t mean we don’t have the laughs and fun…we just don’t always have Sam’s mic. But we begin the episode by chatting about a hard-core West Coast fan who bought a dinner with Harley Reid and Nic Naitanui for $110,000. So it begged the question: who would we pay $110,000 to have dinner with? The conversation quickly became very philosophical (and slightly political) as we listed our perfect “dinner party”...including Harold Holt, Kobe Bryant and Genghis Khan. Then we brought in a new segment, “The Film Club” where we get inspired by the movie, “10 Things I Hate About You” to create our list of 10 things we hate, where we find out the endless efforts Hamish has made to get Pizza Hut as a sponsor and Sam’s disdain for mashed potatoes.

    Cardman22 Tries to Guess Footy Cards | The Carb Loaders Episode 5 with Cardman22

    Hey, we’re The Carb Loaders - three mates who love footy and food a little too much! Today is a historic day for the Carb Loaders, as we have our first-ever guest…Cardman22! Yes, Cardy joins us as we discuss a weekend of footy that was riddled with umpiring controversy and late-game heroics. We discuss the Izak Rankine half-marathon he ran down the wing of the MCG and counsel Sam through the aftermath of the Hawthorn vs Port Adelaide craziness. Then we chat with Cardman22 about his journey to becoming a Footy Content Creator and hear a little bit about his career ambitions. We also put him to the test to see how many Footy Cards of the last 15 years he can recognise…fair to say, he lives up to the name “Cardman”. Then to finish, we go to the Taste Test Segment (which we still haven’t decided on a name for) with a cup of milk filled with Cheetos.

    Can We Guess the Price of an MCG Meat Pie? | The Carb Loaders Episode 4

    Hey, we’re The Carb Loaders - three mates who love footy and food a little too much! In today’s episode, we celebrate a weekend of wonderful footy, that was capped off with some Harley Reid euphoria, Hawthorn heroics and a Collingwood fan giving West Coast’s Harvey Johnston a pat on the head…and getting banned for 12 months as a result! After that, Hamish introduces us to his brand new game show - “The Cost is Correct” (which totally isn’t related to “The Price is Right” for any lawyers who are listening) where Sam and Jay try and guess the price of AFL related items, including a Meat Pie at the MCG. Then to finish, we go to the Taste Test Segment (which we still haven’t decided on a name for) with a plate of Oreos dipped in Dijon Mustard. Follow along on Tiktok and Instagram: @thecarbloadersaus

    What’s the Worst Pre-Game Meal? | The Carb Loaders Episode 3

    Hey, we’re The Carb Loaders - three mates who love footy and food a little too much! In today’s episode, we honour an AFL player that truly embodies the heart of a Carb Loader…Logan Morris. Morris debut for the Brisbane Lions on Sunday Night (hours after playing a VFL game) on the diet of an Angus Burger from Macca’s. This got us thinking: what’s the WORST pre-game meal imaginable? After that, we introduce a couple of new segments. Sam has a fun logo guessing game that is preposterously favourable towards Jay’s favourite sports over Hamish’s. Then Hamish brings us across the Pacific Ocean for “Kiwi Korner”. Then to finish, we try Sam’s newest food creation…Milo with Orange Juice Follow along on Tiktok and Instagram: @thecarbloadersaus

    A Coach Broke His Knee During a GAME? | The Carb Loaders Episode 2

    Hey, we’re The Carb Loaders - three mates who love footy and food a little too much! We’ve all seen star players get injured in the line of fire during the game…but have you seen it happen to the coach? Well, the Minnesota Timberwolves did and this led to an interesting discussion on whether you’d rather lose a bench warmer or a coach to an injury. Anzac Day also came and went without a winner thanks to an anticlimactic draw, but it did hold Jamie Elliott’s potential mark of the year. We chat about the mark, whether the AFL should bring in overtime and how much commentary affects a good mark. Then to finish off, we live up to the “Carb Loaders” by trying Jay’s Mum’s absurd delicacy…Raisin Toast with Vegemite! And, yes, it’s as disgusting as it sounds!

    What’s the Best Sporting Event in the World? | The Carb Loaders Episode 1

    Hey, we’re The Carb Loaders - three mates who love footy and food a little too much! Today we kick-started our brand new podcast with the all-important question…what’s the best sporting event in the world? We each spent many painstaking minutes putting together our list of the top 5 sporting events every year - making sure to keep our Australian bias well and truly present. We also discussed the AFL umpire's latest botch-up when they let Sam Draper have a nap on the footy in the dying seconds of Adelaide vs Essendon, whether or not there’s really an “Everything is $5” restaurant at Marvel Stadium and Sam’s long journey to Hawthorn vs North Melbourne on a very powerful Lime Scooter. Then to finish, we begin our journey of becoming UFC experts with the question that plagues every UFC fan…who would win in a fight between Postman Pat and Fireman Sam?
