Hi guys,
It’s a bumper edition of the Footyology podcast in our Round 16 preview! As well as mulling over the latest news about Dayne Beams, Majak Daw and Orazio Fantasia, in a special “Media Watch”, WA football journalist and Footyology columnist Shayne Hope joins us to talk about the nuances of the WA derby and covering AFL footy in the west. We preview all nine games, take some interesting detours into (believe it or not) monkeys riding greyhounds and footballers doing crappy ads, and give YOU a chance to win some prizes in our weekly competition. If you haven't tried it, give us a spin!
Cheers,
Rohan

New recurring theme: Rohan thinks Mason Redman doesn't get enough credit.
In last week's preview pod, Rohan Connolly expressed his bemusement at how an opinion piece by Ben Dixon on why Clarkson should go to Carlton was hyped up the footy media as something of substance to such a level that Clarkson and players had to publicly deny it.
I was thinking of that when I heard Kennett interviewed on 3AW over the weekend and Caroline Wilson was hyping up this issue in her patented Footy Classified style of how there had to be more to it and Carlton were after him and the relationship Dixon and Clarkson had (even though he hasn't played under Clarkson since 2007). Kennett predictably fobbed it off and it went nowhere.
As pointless as it was, the exchange highlighted Connolly's issue with the hype surrounding it. A story about nothing more than an ex-player's opinion was treated as something of substance and lots of pointless debate and questions resulted.
These days it's almost as if the more you listen/watch of the footy media, the less you learn about the game.

Just needed to say that the end of Sunday night's podcast was ******* hellish. Like, cringeworthy, embarrassingly bad.
I reckon I've probably listened to every minute of this podcast since it start - until Sunday night, where I turned it off before the end. Seriously RohanConnolly - don't ever put that s**t on the show again, it was ******* awful.

I love the long episodes to be honest. Particularly on Sunday night, my thirst for a quality round wrap is huge. Would rather listen to a 1hr 41min episode of Footyology than watch a film.

Great way to enjoy a monday walk, listening to this podcast. Thanks for your work Rohan and Mark and whoever is behind the scenes.
It's terrible branding. Looked 15 years out of date in 2011 and it's not better now.
Thought very apt summation by the two hosts (especially Fine) of how one of the biggest problems with the game atm is that too often even when good sides are playing well they don't score much because they're overcoached and too defensive minded.
Again Rohan was bemoaning pressure going on Richardson, despite another mediocre performance against North Melbourne yesterday.
Sure, the Saints have had injuries this season but Richardson's has had six seasons to build a viable list with depth and by any measure he's failed to get close to standard. Would there be any Saints fans at this stage happy to see him continue on for another season?

There wouldn't be many, I think most would like to see him moved on and replaced as coach for next year.
He's now St Kilda's 2nd longest serving coach yet we haven't played finals once under him, even taking into account our injuries that just isn't good enough.

Loved media watch this week, especially Rohans crack at The Oval Office and Mcclure!
Was looking forward to the KB sacking discussion and it didn't disappoint. The revelation that not only was KB forced to loose all his regulars but had to tell them personally was I suspect tipping point for KB to just phone in it in on afternoons.
Although this year's leader is Adelaide won't get back to their 2017 form; they even did an extended discussion on it today!
Rohan mentioning how high scoring the 2000 season was, must've mentioned it 4-5 times this year.Things guaranteed to be mentioned in EVERY episode....
Rohan really likes Willie Rioli
Rohan really likes Mitch Brown
Rohan constantly searching for Adelaide to return to 2017 form.
Ant others?

Not only is Ian Hill not a brother of the other Hill's but he also plays for GWS not GC
One future topic of like to hear discussed for a Media Watch segment is the time Fine called for the sacking of Scott Watters and then he was sacked weeks later.
Would be interesting to hear what made him do such a public call and whether he had any regrets about it until Waters was sacked in bizarre circumstances.
