    NFL Journalist GRANT COHN takes on the AFL, Melbourne food, and Marcus Bontempelli

    American sports journalist Grant Cohn (Sports Illustrated) touched down in Melbourne to cover the NFL's 49ers vs Rams clash at the MCG — and fell headfirst into AFL, footy food and Melbourne's coffee obsession along the way. On his first-ever trip to Australia, Grant sits down with Zero Hanger's Phoenix Trinidad to unpack his first AFL game at the 'G, why he's been rage-baiting AFL fans, what he really makes of Patrick Dangerfield, and why he reckons footy fans should be barracking for the 49ers. We also get his verdict on chicken parmas, kebabs, halal snack packs, Aussie pizza, and Melbourne coffee. Plus: why the Rams "should be punished," what the MCG is actually like as an NFL venue, and a look inside the brutal game-day grind of a full-time sports reporter. 🎙️ Follow Grant Cohn: YT: https://www.youtube.com/@cohnzohn X: https://x.com/grantcohn #NFL #AFL #MCG #49ers #Melbourne #GrantCohn #NFLMelbourne #Footy #Bontempelli #Dangerfield ⬇️ RUNDOWN: 00:00 Intro + Vibe-check 00:53 Who Is Grant Cohn?
