The Footy Dictionary

From the do-or-die to danger games, scrappy wins to four-quarter performances, the dictionary of Australian rules football is choc-a-bloc with unique phrases, cliches and resulting banana skins. What counts as must-win? Which players deserve public nicknaming? And how much gusto should each post-victory song earn? Harper Pestinger, Hamish O’Brien, Connor Buttigieg and guest adjudicators you've actually heard of are here to answer the questions you didn’t know you care about, but in fact really, really do. Tune in Mondays at 4pm AET on SYN 90.7 FM.

    The art of banner making, overzealous announcers and Graham Johncock's cat

    Back and energised after a three-week suspension for failing to acknowledge Josh Walker's journeyman credentials, Harper Pestinger, Hamish O'Brien and Connor Buttigieg convene to call out football's linguistic rule breakers and headline makers. Can a home team take home a win? What's the most over-discussed, frenzy-sparking rule in the AFL? And should clubs post about opposition players being sent to the tribunal? Tune in as the panel turns every misdemeaning stone with a fine-tooth comb in their pursuit of a football linguistic utopia. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Sexy sirens, fortresses and the animal kingdom's best 22

    Fresh off their best performance of the season, Harper Pestinger and Hamish O'Brien are back to tackle the footy questions you didn't know needed answering. Why has Connor made himself unavailable for selection? What makes certain sirens great? Which members of the animal kingdom should list managers be considering? And what was going through David King's head when he made the year's biggest blunder? Chuck on your shades Mason and Dwayne, 'cause the future is bright for the Dictionary boys.

    Evangelical dominators, low-level big time and Ricciuto's handiest point

    You thought the journeymen deep dives were over. We thought the journeymen deep dives were over. Anthony Hudson, though, had different plans and has thrown us the biggest, juiciest bone that we've yet chewed on. This week, Harper Pestinger, Hamish O'Brien and Connor Buttigieg reconvene to hear more media misconducts sent to our Tribunal.  Why is Mason Cox so bad at describing footy to foreigners? Can bad teams have danger games? And how can losing-team social admins pick up their post-game game? The boys are well and truly hitting their straps.

    Al from Alberton, slugs under the roof and Hawkins Disease

    Harper, Connor and Hamish are back again to over-analyse this week's critical talking points and shake up Greg Champion's tyrannical footy song monopoly. Why should Josh Schache grow out his hair? How wriggly must the score worm be for a game to be considered see-sawing? And how exactly does one pronounce Kolodjashnij? Perhaps Dwayne Russell can give us a better idea. The Dictionary Boys are dancing now. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Pill up the arse, eye-raising eye-lowering and the battle of Porn City

    The Footy Dictionary is back, in a big, Elliott-Himmelberg-kick-into the-Torrens kind of way. For our debut SYN Radio episode, Harper Pestinger and Hamish O’Brien are joined by Connor Buttigieg to chew the fat on the heinous linguistic misdemeanours from the week in footy. Can teams really ‘feel each other out’? Is it possible for defenders to ‘take it up’ to small forwards? And can commentators claim that kicks that don’t clear the boundary fence have landed in a grounds neighbouring river? (Looking at you, Dwayne Russell) Plus, Lachie Plowman steps under the now-infamous journeyman microscope, foreign correspondent Darren "Donger" Dixon joins us from Denmark with a very special guest, and Harper has a big bone to pick with his beloved Bombers cuddling up with the enemy.
