This includes rule changes, Tony Lockett throwing crutches, the rain in Queensland, KB now coaching the Tigers, Ablett kicking bags for the Cats, and the Swans putting bets on themselves. All this and more in our welcome return to form.

Another week of fantastic finals, and here we are with a rather shorter episode to chat about the prelims, Sydney ending their streak against the Power and finally breaking through for a win. We discussed the MCG on Saturday night—what a crowd and what a game! The Lions made a comeback once again. What does the grand final look like? What history are we looking forward to? And who will win the Brownlow? Also, to build toward the 2024 grand final, we've included the grand final interview we did with the 1899 captain in a very old episode. Finally, please excuse Tim's husky voice.

Last week we poo-pooed the semi final week as the least interesting, and boy were we wrong! This weekend's game were amazing! The young Port team had a nice link to the 1961 Hawks team. History was on Port's side this week, but probably won't be next week. While the Lions had the third biggest comeback of all time in a final. Finally, we look ahead to Preliminary week and make some bold predictions. All that and more on this week's episode.

The final round of the 2024 season (longest season ever) is done, and here is our breakdown of links and quirks. "The Dees play in another delayed game. We get a couple of unique scores in a big scoring game. Dyson Heppell joins an unwanted club. The Saints win a nail-biter, and the Dockers let a golden opportunity slip. Plus, we celebrate Jesse Hogan's Coleman win and check in on a leap year trend.

Round 22 was a close one, and we're here with a breakdown. Saturday was one of the closest days in history. The Lions' streak is over, we get some old-school throwback jumpers, the Dons lose for the third year in heartbreaking fashion, and the Crows continue the Dogs' poor form in Adelaide."
