    Beautiful Sunday

    The Glory finally gave the fans something to smile about! Blayne, Neil, Jaxon, and James are back to dissect Perth Glory's much-needed 3-1 victory over Macarthur. With Taggart out of the starting XI, Nicho Pennington thrived, and Gabby Popovic and Arian Sulemani finally got some reward for their relentless effort. But with Glory mathematically ruled out of the finals for a devastating sixth straight season, the boys ask the big question: Is the win enough for Adam Griffiths to keep his job, or is he simply the "cheap option" for an ownership group that has gone completely radio silent? The lads also fire up over the heavy-handed VenuesWest security guards evicting fans for taking their shirts off in The Shed, prompting the FRG to step in to protect active supporter culture. On the global stage, Neil defends the massive "Calcio Italiano" tour bringing AC Milan, Inter, Juventus, and Palermo to Perth, telling the cynics to stay home. Plus, Jaxon celebrates Marie-Louise Eta making history at Union Berlin, Blayne is absolutely buzzing after Leeds United won a league game at Old Trafford for the first time in 45 years, and we bask in the glorious meltdown of Arsenal fans abandoning the Emirates after a loss to Bournemouth. Key Topics: Glory's 3-1 Win: Breaking down a rare positive performance. Nicho Pennington dominates on the left, and the boys give props to Gabby Popovic and Arian Sulemani for finally finding the back of the net. The Griffiths Dilemma & Ownership Silence: Is Adam Griffiths the right man for the job next season, or just the path of least resistance? The crew blasts the unacceptable radio silence from the ownership group.  Shirtless in The Shed: Calling out the overzealous security guards who evicted Perth Glory fans for taking their shirts off, and how the FRG is pushing back against the over-policing of active support. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly: Good: Neil tells the haters to pipe down about the "Calcio Italiano" tour and hypes up seeing Super Pippo Inzaghi in the flesh. Jaxon applauds Marie-Louise Eta becoming the first female manager in Europe's top 5 leagues at Union Berlin. Blayne celebrates Leeds' historic 2-1 win over Man United at Old Trafford. Bad: Arsenal fans booing their team and emptying the stadium after losing to Bournemouth, Tottenham's terrifying freefall toward the relegation zone, and the cruelty of the National League North where York City (104 pts) and Rochdale (102 pts) are fighting for just one automatic promotion spot.

    King of Mesopotamia

Graham Arnold achieves god-status by guiding Iraq to their first World Cup in 40 years, sparking incredible scenes from Baghdad to Sydney. Meanwhile, Perth Glory managed to do the most "Glory" thing ever: blow a 2-0 lead against the Mariners while playing long-ball "missile football".

Plus, Arsenal getting dumped from the Champions League, bringing the glorious return of AFTV meltdowns. Bad: Arsenal’s potential title "bottle job" returning right on schedule.

    The Mixed Bag

    Welcome to The Mixed Bag! The Socceroos smashed five past Curacao, but where's the rotation? Why is Maty Ryan playing 90 minutes in back-to-back friendlies while Alex Robertson gets a measly 12 minutes? On a brighter note, Jordy Bos is proving to be an absolute revelation since his move to Feyenoord. Locally, the Perth Glory Women’s finals hopes have officially faded to black. Renton gives us the inside scoop on the fan group's recent sit-down with coach Stephen Peters, leading to a harsh reality check about the club's standards and why missing the top six is a failure. We also dissect the disconnect between grassroots football and the A-League, asking why the Glory have become a "running joke" among the local footballers. Plus, we cover Ireland’s 28-year World Cup drought, the terrifying prospect of Canberra United folding, an appalling referee abuse incident in NPL Victoria , and the spicy A-League coaching drama as Ufuk Talay and Patrick Kisnorbo take up their new posts.  Key Topics: Socceroos' Wasted Window: * Australia secured a 5-1 win over Curacao to close out the international break. Jordy Bos is locked in as a superstar find, racking up goals and assists for Feyenoord. However, the boys rip into the conservative use of substitutes, specifically wasting the window by giving Alex Robertson just 12 minutes of pitch time and playing Maty Ryan for 90 minutes in both friendlies. The Grassroots Disconnect: * The local WA Night Series has seen fantastic crowds and a renewed interest in local football. A brutal discussion on how Perth Glory is viewed as a "running joke" by local players , and how the club desperately needs to build a presence in schools and local clubs to win back the fans. Glory Women's Season Post-Mortem: * The FSG's 90-minute meeting with coach Steven Peters revealed that the team is aware of their shortcomings in both boxes. Neil argues that in a league with no relegation, missing the finals is the ultimate measure of failure. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly: Good: Jordy Bos’s rise for club and country , and the thriving local WA amateur and state league setups. Bad: Ireland crashing out of World Cup contention, marking 28 years without an appearance. Furthermore, the dire financial future of Canberra United after losing their $200,000 government lifeline. Ugly: The Socceroos' "watermelon" gradient away kit , and a disgraceful incident in NPL Victoria where Brunswick City's head coach was sent off for aggressively abusing a female linesman. The A-League Coaching Carousel: * Sydney FC drops a bombshell with Ufuk Talay resigning, reportedly heading to the Western Sydney Wanderers. Patrick Kisnorbo steps into the Sydney FC role out of nowhere , setting up an incredibly spicy Sydney Derby.

But was the 1-1 draw against Melbourne City a complete snoozefest? The boys discuss the massive drop in expected goals since key players went down and why the squad looks completely toothless in attack. On the international stage, the Matildas fall short in the Asian Cup final with a 1-0 loss to a dominant Japan.

    So, you're telling me there's a chance?

    Is Perth's season dead, or is there still a faint heartbeat? This week, Blayne, Neil, Jaxon, and James dissect Perth Glory's scrappy 2-2 draw with Auckland. With square pegs in round holes and injuries piling up, the boys run the math on what it will take to secure a miraculous top-six finish. Meanwhile, "Matilda Mania" has hit Perth, but the boys aren't entirely sold. We break down the underwhelming start to the Asian Cup, question the tactical bravery against South Korea, and put out a public service announcement: doing the Mexican Wave when it's 1-0 is a crime against football. Plus, Renton gives us the inside scoop on his fan-representative meeting with Adam Griffiths (while Neil plays the ultimate cynic), we wrap an explosive opening round of the NPL WA, and we cover the global football chaos—including a 23-red-card brawl in Brazil and crowd violence in the Old Firm Derby. Key Topics: Glory’s Glimmer of Hope: Riding their luck in a 2-2 draw against Auckland, surviving early defensive scares, and previewing the daunting "Distance Derby" double-header in New Zealand. The Griffiths Debrief: James shares the details of the fan group's sit-down with Glory boss Adam Griffiths to discuss youth development and play style. Neil asks the hard question: is it genuine transparency or just club PR? Matildas Asian Cup Campaign: Unpacking the performances against the Philippines and South Korea. We discuss the goalkeeper crisis, Alana Kennedy playing as a #6, and why HBF Park is the perfect cauldron for the quarter-final against North Korea. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly: Good: A genuine three-horse title race in the A-League Men and a magical FA Cup run for Port Vale's Aussie contingent. Bad: Asian Cup scheduling nightmares, 11-0 blowouts, and mounting logistical concerns for the 2026 World Cup in North America. Ugly: Fan chaos in the Scottish Cup and an absolutely mental 23-red-card brawl in Brazil. Local WA Football: Floreat Athena claiming the State League Night Series, Bayswater's 7-0 statement win in Round 1 of the NPL, and looking ahead to the Women's Night Series Final.

    Finals hopes fade to grey

    In this episode, Blayne, Neil, and Jaxon unpack Perth's toothless 1-1 draw against Brisbane Roar, where the Glory managed to score without actually registering a single shot on target. With finals football seemingly more and more out of reach, the boys ask the hard questions: what is the pass mark for Adam Griffiths now?  Meanwhile, "Matilda Mania" hit Perth Stadium with 44,000 fans turning out for the Asian Cup opener. But was a 1-0 win over the Philippines actually a bit underwhelming? We dissect the performance, the frustrating 1 PM midweek scheduling for the rest of the tournament , and why the "Mexican Wave" needs to be banned. Plus, we celebrate the return of the NPL WA, blast cheap Premier League merchandise, and ask if the upcoming World Cup is shaping up to be a logistical nightmare. Key Topics: Glory's Attacking Crisis: Breaking down the 1-1 scrap against Brisbane. With zero shots on target in two weeks and only three shots from open play against the Roar, where is the creative spark going to come from without Tom Lawrence and the likes?  Matildas in WA: A 1-0 win gets the points, but holding 85% possession for just 15 shots against a low block leaves plenty of room for improvement. Also, a football snob's plea to stop the Mexican Wave. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly: Good: A legitimate three-horse title race in the A-League Men between Newcastle, Auckland, and Sydney. Plus, the NPL WA kicks off with a bang as marquees Daniel Stynes and Danny De Silva both find the back of the net. Bad: Tottenham Hotspur's disastrous 10-game winless streak dragging them toward the relegation zone , and the Asian Cup's crowd-killing midweek double-headers. Ugly: Premier League clubs pushing generic, cookie-cutter Saint Patrick's Day merchandise , and mounting logistical concerns just 100 days out from the North American World Cup. Round Predictions: Looking ahead to the weekend, including whether Perth Glory can avoid a 10:00 AM blowout against a high-flying Auckland side.

    Get your kits out (Feat. The Kit Dealer)

    The Adam Griffiths honeymoon period is officially over. Neil Sherwin is back from rocking out at Good Charlotte just in time to join Blayne and Jaxon for a reality check on Perth Glory's form. With the finals slipping away, the boys ask the hard questions: have teams figured out our tactics, and do we really want to endure another off-season coaching search? Then, it’s time to geek out. We are joined by Rob Childs, aka The Kit Dealer, to talk all things vintage football shirts. Rob shares the secrets to spotting a fake 90s Kappa jersey, why the crossover between indie bands and football clubs is booming, and the absolutely unbelievable story of how AC Milan star Luka Jović randomly wandered into his shop in Piccadilly Arcade and sparked a global friendship. Plus, we look at Juan Mata lighting up the Melbourne Derby, Daniel Bennie's cracking first goal in the Championship, a massive comeback win for the Glory Women, and why "crossing the line" with active support banter does the terraces no favours. Key Topics: The Glory Reality Check: Why the momentum has vanished, the gaping hole left by Rostyn Griffiths, and why the press conference "stonewalling" is wearing thin. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly: Good: Juan Mata proving his class at Victory and Daniel Bennie’s screamer for QPR. Bad: Melbourne City’s disastrous season and Western Sydney Wanderers’ massive fumble of the Juan Mata marquee signing. Ugly: When banter crosses the line on the terraces, and a serious chat about the persistent issue of racism in football. Feature Interview: Rob Childs (The Kit Dealer): Why the 1995–2005 era is the undisputed peak of football kits. How to authenticate vintage shirts (and why cheap knock-offs can't replicate 90s manufacturing). Sourcing a Manly Dolphins jacket in Sicily and a Perth SC shirt in Bulgaria. The AC Milan Story: How a random knock on a closed door led to hanging out with Luka Jović and Jan-Carlo Simić across Europe and Saudi Arabia. A-League Women: The Glory Girls show massive character with a 3-2 comeback win over the Jets to keep their Top 6 hopes alive. Coaching Carousel Rumours: Dismissing the Rob Stanton to Perth whispers, but asking the big question: what is the benchmark for Griffiths to earn a contract extension? Keywords: Perth Glory, The Kit Dealer, Vintage Football Kits, A-League Men, A-League Women, Juan Mata, Luka Jović, Adam Griffiths, NPL WA, Daniel Bennie.
