    Does Essendon’s delay favour McVeigh and why only one game matters this week

    Carlton hold their fate and the interest levels in round 24 in their hands this weekend and might we see two coaching appointments in the next seven days? Corbin, Ben and Brett Deledio look forward to the round ahead and a key question from each game plus chat through the latest in the Jake Kolodjashnij and Geelong issue. Did we get it completely wrong on Brisbane, have our trust levels of Hawthorn reached new lows, why Zak Butters shouldn’t risk playing and does the longest current streak in footy continue when Geelong play the Kangaroos? On the coaching front, Josh Fraser can all but guarantee his coaching future with a Carlton win and wildcard slot and why it’s cleaner to appoint Mark McVeigh Essendon coach until after the Bombers play Sydney this weekend. ABC AFL commentators Corbin Middlemas and Ben Cameron are joined by a rolling squad of former AFL players and legends of the game to analyse matches, deep dive the stories dominating the footy landscape, recap game highlights and talk through the latest AFL ladder standings.

    The "significant deceit" of Geelong's Jake Kolodjashnij contract storm

    Bob Murphy says this "murky" Geelong concussion waiver controversy "stinks to high heaven" and wonders whether we'll see genuine punishment or simply appeasement. As usual, Corbin & Bob digest all the Monday footy shows to save you the effort and leading the chat is the now AFL Chair Craig Drummond's role in this situation. There's also a strange one week delay in the Essendon coaching decision, Zak Butters to Collingwood reeks of a NBA style superstars model and why Fremantle shouldn't be worried after their MCG loss to the Demons. Plus, with Tex Walker's retirement, who had your favourite moustache in AFL history?

    Kangas ruin Bulldogs’ day and can clubs include concussion clauses?

    At no point in the game did the Western Bulldogs lead, so how did the Roos pull off this upset win?

    Neale’s Collingwood tour and could Essendon form a coaching ‘supergroup’?

    Corbin and Bob have watched the Monday night footy shows so you don’t have to and they unpack the big issues. Are Essendon looking to replicate Brisbane’s rise to the top with some of the key personnel linked to the club? Meanwhile Bob thinks that the Bombers have ‘no right’ to be upset about comments made by Leigh Matthews about their coaching environment, despite the club asking the AFL for action. Is Jake Stringer on the out at the Giants due to financial troubles? Plus did Lachie Neale REALLY need to tour the Collingwood facilities when he was in town? Bob doesn’t think so.  Also, we're doing a live podcast on Thursday Aug 27 before Wildcard round with Marc and Bob Murphy at the Railway Hotel in Fitzroy North. Tickets are super limited and free, get them here.

    Do Carlton fans want Josh Fraser to be given the head coaching role at Carlton, and if not, who should have the role?
