Round 24 Reckoning: Finals Locked In, Swans Scandals & Grundle Sunning

The home-and-away season is officially in the books, and Dukes, Simo, Dangerous Dan, alongside special studio guest Taj, assemble to dissect all the Round 24 footy chaos and look ahead to week one of finals.

AFL Round 24 & All-Australian Debates The crew breaks down Carlton's statement victory over Fremantle that poured cold water on premature grand final parade planning, Brisbane's ruthless thumping of Collingwood, and Scott Pendlebury's injury concerns. They also scrutinize the newly announced 2026 All-Australian squad, dissecting who rightfully earned their blazer, who got stiffed, and which clubs were completely snubbed.

Simon Says & Around the Grounds Simo takes center stage with a classic rant tackling everything from cane-toad bashing stories and China's terrifying Robot Olympics to the questionable health trend of grundle sunning and smartphone tech headaches. The sporting tour continues with Australia's test cricket bounce-back against Bangladesh in Cairns, opening-week shockers in the English Premier League, and local WAFL wrap-ups.

Elimination Finals Preview Finally, the team dives into the upcoming Elimination Finals, offering early predictions for the massive MCG blockbusters featuring Western Bulldogs against Collingwood and Melbourne taking on Carlton.
