Line in the Sand. An AFL Podcast

They discuss the Clayton Oliver trade that isn't, a long term deal for Aaron Naughton and whether Callum Mills should be stripped of his saints Captaincy.

In this week’s episode, after going off tangent and discussing the Rugby World Cup and the EPL Amos and Hamish discuss whether the AFL Premiership Cup should be named the Barassi Cup. They speculate whether Hinkley and Goodwin have anything to worry about and it also seems to be that Ben McKay is either Essendon or Hawthorn bound. Hawthorn has a new CEO. Essendon is transitioning from the Dodoro e...

A short but feature packed episode this week with Hamish hiding in the bathroom of his Auckland hotel, hiding from angry New Zealanders after the All Blacks loss at the Rugby World Cup last weekend.

Both Hamish and Amos share their Finals predictions and Hawthorn is guaranteed at least 1 trophy this year with 2 teams battl...

Both will be looking for bragging rights after this week’s AFLW Rou...

In this week's episode Hamish gets a bit ranty and calls for Adrian Dodoro's head. Amos has a more positive view of the Hawks season (and weekend.)

It's fair to say it was other sports keeping Hamish up and about this week with all Essendon teams going down. Having said that, there was still a lot to talk about from a Football perspective - the race for the 8 is still wide open, and all eyes will be on Tex against the Eagles to see if he can bridge the gap to Curnow. Hamish asks if Longmuir is under threat as Freo Coach and both Amos and...

In this week's episode Hamish starts planning for Premiership glory whilst Amos gets excited about the future prospects at Hawthorn. Both question whether West Coast should hand back their licence and wonder when the Blues Board will sack the Coach.

This week's episode was a magical one for Hamish.

After declaring that Hawthorn "may" never lose again Amos needs to reassess the Hawks chances

In this week's episode Hamish declares the Harley Reid Cup over. Amos is not so sure. They both share their disappointment with the handling of the racism for all parties. They question whether Captains should always be picked. Hawthorn will never lose again. Essendon will win the Premiership.

Hamish makes excuses as Amos can barely contain his excitement after another strong outing for Harley Reid over the weekend.

There is also some consensus that the only acceptable time to boo is when MCC members don't participate in a Mexican Wave

In this episode, Hamish and Amos also discuss what they would like to see from the new CEO, whether West Coast should be relocated to Tasmania and also the new Tasmanian team.

A short and sharp episode this week. Both Hamish and Amos think Jezza can get 100 goals this year even if his coach wants to stop him, and both talk about the highs and lows from their perspective clubs over the weekend.
