Welcome to everyone’s favourite day of the year! Thursday! Everyone's team can win this weekend and everyone has their post-match hottakes locked and loaded ready for “Overreaction Monday” in four days time…

The AFL returned last Thursday and after only one round, the world is already ending! The bump is dead, the draw needs to go as well and Ross the Boss is back but has he answered all of the Saints' prayers?

Round 2 asks if the Cats can get it done or do they have a hangover bigger than someone's after an Ed Sheeran concert? Richmond... Do they remember what a plane is? Can they get out to the Adelaide Oval and still know where to go?

Does anyone care if footy's being played in Brisbane this week with two NRL Derbies on?

And will Freo, free Fyfe into the midfield?

If Round 1 wants anything to go by, this will be one of the wildest and hardest to predict seasons in recent memory... Join us as we try to do just that!

ON THIS EPISODE...

MUST WATCH GAMES:
- Brisbane vs. Melbourne
- Collingwood vs. Port Adelaide

MOST AT-STAKE GAMES:
- Carlton vs. Geelong
- Western Bulldogs vs. St Kilda

FANS EYED VIEWS:
- Nicko's Hawks in Sydney
- Gordo's Tigers in Adelaide

BUYER BEWARE! (SuperCoach Tactics)

Fans' Eyed Flutter (Best Bets for Round 2)

If you tipped 9… you’re lying - cause no one saw that coming!

All four teams with new coaches at the helm secured four points in round one much to the dismay of footy tipping comps around the country, while Melbourne, Collingwood and Sydney were the clear standouts in Round 1, while Brisbane, Fremantle and Hawthorn have the biggest cause for concern.

*This is the Fans’ Eyed View’s - Watercooler Cheat Sheet, brought to you by Sportsmate, TLA and the Footy Live app.

Speaking of Hawthorn - with Gordo to nuff out on the weekend's action is one very sad Hawk indeed... Nicky G.*

It’s been a bloody long summer... Trade talk, fixture leaks, training the house down, off-field scandals, match simulation – we’ve all had enough.

We all want one thing and one thing only... We just want footy that looks and feels like real footy... and it's back! This weekend!

Join Gordo and Nick as they break down all the talking points from across a VERY long off-season, as well as preview all the 2023 AFL action.

Harper Secombe of the Harping On Podcast is joined by rebounding defender Massimo D'Ambrosio.

Massimo is a likely selection for next week's mid-season draft after playing some fantastic footy this year including games for the Colgate Young Guns. Massimo has an elite kick and can quickly turn defence into offence.

Massimo played his junior footy at Point Cook and now plays for the Western Jets in the NAB League and Richmond in the VFL.

This week we talk about, transforming his game, playing VFL, the mid-season draft and much more!

As one of the toughest and most determined players the footy world has ever seen, this man notched up 240 games for the Hawthorn Football Club, collecting 5 day-*premierships, 4 nightpremierships, a BROWNLOW MEDAL and an induction into the Australian Football Hall of Fame.*

He’s also been named in the VFL/AFL Italian Team of the Century, and with a media career longer than his famous moustache, he’s graced our screens for many years since he hung up the boots and has become an icon all around the nation.

Jimmy Szabo sits down with special sporting stars each week, discussing their story, interests, on-field feats, and everything you, the fans, want to know!Today’s guest is a cult figure of the Collingwood football club, a man who left everything out on the field in every one of his 246 games. He was tough, unrelenting and courageous, which earned him a placing in the Copeland trophy-count three times, and three ‘Wrecker Awards’ - given to player with the most tackles and one-percenters.

He was a Premiership hero in 1990, and his impressive footy brain landed him coaching roles at North Melbourne, Hawthorn, North Ballarat and Carlton.

All while this footy legend appeared to have it all, he was battling addiction and mental health issues that eventually resulted in him hitting rock bottom. He’s since recovered, opened up his own rehab clinic and is continuing to inspire others to turn their lives around and beat life-threatening issues.

It was a great pleasure to welcome Gavin Crosisca to the GOOD CHAT podcast;

"It was very easy. I'd just go to the toilet quickly and have a line ... you wound't even know. It took me 10 seconds."

Jimmy Szabo sits down with special sporting stars each week, discussing their story, interests, on-field feats, and everything you, the fans, want to know!

Today’s guest is one of the most brilliant leaders the great game of Australian rules football has ever seen.

This man played over 350 games for Fitzroy and Sydney, before ending a 72-year premiership drought for the Swans as coach, and almost single-handedly helping the Demons rise up from years of hell.

He went on to become one of the most insightful and professional media presenters in the AFL world … and currently inspires and motivates groups of people through his educational talks around leadership, culture, and mental well-being.

His list of achievements is longer than the mullet he sported in his playing days - with seven all Australians, inductions into the Lions, Swans and Australian Football Hall of Fame, Fitzroy’s Centre half back in the team of the century, five best and fairests and goal kicking awards - to name just some of his achievements - along with that all-important 2005 premiership cup.

For the people who have waited (probably less than 72 years) for us to interview Paul Roos … HERE IT IS!

Jimmy Szabo sits down with special sporting stars each week, discussing their story, interests, on-field feats, and everything you, the fans, want to know!

This week's guest is a legend of our great game. His commitment, hard work and on-field brilliance at Richmond led him to become a life-member and honourable hero of the famous club. Through his 243 games for the yellow and black, he kicked 182 goals and picked up two best and fairest awards with his blistering pace, elite skill-set, and magnificent marking. His leadership qualities saw him become vice-captain, before being an influential leader at GWS over another three seasons.

The No.1 draft pick lived up to the hype on the field, and is continuing to do great things off it, through coaching, mentoring and being a great person for his young family.

Jimmy Szabo sits down with special sporting stars each week, discussing their story, interests, on-field feats, and everything you, the fans, want to know!

Today’s guest is a tough, fierce competitor, who never did things by halves during his 157-game journey at the highest level. Through an impressive career with Melbourne and Carlton, he built an on-field reputation as a courageous midfielder whose attack on the footy and decision-making ability was as elite as they come. This man battled countless injuries, as well as extremely difficult mental-health issues over 11 years in the game, to come out the other side as inspiration to many. Post-footy, he’s continued to share learnings and important messages with others who are struggling, while building a career in the finance industry and living life as a proud family man and father.

This week's guest is one of the most talented, driven, and best-looking defenders the footy world has ever seen. Through hard work, resilience, and a golden left fist, this man went from being overlooked in the draft to a three-time premiership player, two-time Best and Fairest winner and an All Australian respected by the entire footy community.

Post his 225-game career at the Roos and Hawks, he’s continued to grace our screens through media work, reality TV appearances and entrepreneurial pursuits.

With his love of being around people, motivating and helping others achieve their goals, he has continued to make an impact on the community well after hanging up the boots.

"Leigh (Matthews) was ropeable ... 'at the end of this game you trade him. I never want him in this club again'' ... then I went out and kicked five goals, two. So that literally saved my job there."This week's guest is one of the most entertaining, skilful and clutch footballers the AFL world has ever seen. With four All Australian selections, three premierships, two best and fairest awards and a Brownlow Medal, to name just some of his incredible achievements, this Hall of Famer’s list of highlights is brighter than the bleached blonde hair he sported for the majority of his 325-game career. This man left us in awe on the field, while equally engaged off it, with media stints that provided never-before seen honesty and insights. After selling tickets, newspapers and a few extra few beers while fans stayed to watch his post-game handstands, he’s now selling houses up north to support his wonderful family.

"If I was going to be brutally honest I don't ... I don't miss football."

"I've always had the mindset of knowing who you truly are deep down, and remaining humble and knowing where your happiness lies. No need to prove anything to anyone, at the end of the day it's about proving to yourself. Probably why I sometimes felt uncomfortable being a footballer, which is a bit of an odd thing to say. Because it just didn't always sit well - the attention."
