Round 13, 2011. How can we cope with no Collingwood to pump up this week.  Better start with the great display of the Tigers up north against a lowly ranked and under-manned Brisbane outfit that the yellow and black struggled to put away.  Thank goodness for Dustin ‘cut along dotted line’ Martin. The demise of […]

Round 12, 2011. Half way through the season and there are more questions than answers that have been raised in the preceding 12 weeks.  Eade? St. Kilda? Craig? West Coast?  Essendon?  Thompson? are just 6 of them. Of course the most pressing question is ‘how do you solve a problem like a-Malthouse?” for 2012.  Figgers […]

Round 11, 2011. So the greatest player in the competition at the moment is falible and doesn’t know how to handle a tag he doesn’t like until he had to resort to fisticuffs to prove he is tough.  Have a holiday Mr. Thomas. Footytalk.com.au management is also learning to appreciate just how serious racial vilification […]

Round 10, 2011. Should a team sell a game for financial gain during the season.  That is the big question on our lips this week as Richmond appear to have foregone a HUGE cash injection from making finals by playing meek, insipid footy against the also-rans up at Marrara.  That’s 4 points they will never […]

Round 9, 2011. We were on the cusp of the biggest upset in footy history..at least for a couple of years..and then Collingwood decided to spoil the party by pushing the button and turning on a display of quality footy that has left the majority of the footy medja flummoxed.  How did  they do it? […]

Round 8, 2011. Since receiving a plethora of emails requestig some new voices from the ‘Me Generation’ to co-host the podcasts, we have scoured both Australia and Brunei to find just the right person for the job. Footytalk.com.au is proud to present a new presenter this week for his first foray behind the microphone.  Please […]

Round 7, 2011. Gee, what is going on here.  Footy players behaving themselves off the field.  The clubs in control of all aspects of their playes lives and no idiotic no-name drunken fools trying to pick fights with players to have a notch on their belts? Barely seems worth reporting on anything really.  Just as […]

Round 6, 2011. Finally the announcement of the year has been made – FOXTEL is set to become RICH but not as rich as Telstra.  They are the real winners out of all this.  But where do the players stand.  Watch this space for a fight of epic proportions. And Richmond is now making a […]

In what is  the 3rd anniversary of the passing of one of footytalk.com.au’s greatest fans, and the father our our inaugural “Boy of the Year” we pay our respects and condolences to the Bartram family in memory of Steve. We also join the whole footballing community in paying our respects to the fallen heroes of […]

Round 4, 2011. Another trip onto the wrong side of the Yarra this week sees Footytalk hosted out in the ‘burbs once again. Apart from the exceptional soundproofing of the studio, we share some quality banter and informative footy discussion with the Collingwood President-Elect – Obama Rookie. Footytalk is slowly becoming the Collingwood Show again.  […]

Round 2, 2011. According to the medja, the Sun has set on the Gold Coast already.  Surely one bad loss at the start of a dynasty does not a career make.  Or is that only coming from the knob at thepunch.com.au – a Sydney-centric internet rag with journo’s who should stick to rugby rather than […]

Round 1, 2011. Thank goodness the footy is finally upon us.  It is such a long wait from the first weekend in October until the last weekend in March and so much to keep footy fresh in our minds has graced the pages of the exhalted medja but nothing beats the anticipation of strutting along […]

2011 Pre-season Show Our first show of the year looks at the scandal-filled off-season that we have been through. With the St. Kilda Schoolgirl, Ricky Nixon, Fevalio and the NAB Cup to discuss, our panel of armchair experts put forward their thoughts in what is happening to our great game. Add us to iTunes HERE […]

Round 22 In what was the biggest week in footy for 2010, the sotries just kept hitting the headlines.  Barely did we have time to digest the Knights sacking and we are hit with the first player who has succumbed to the AFL ‘three strikes policy’ for illicit and illegal drugs.  This was on top […]
