#142: Sparring With The Saints

It began with a brief comment from Chris Fagan on a pre-season podcast for the AFL website. It’s ended with an all-out media war between two football clubs.

It’s a rivalry that hasn’t had much heat in it since Mal Michael and Chris Scott targeted an injured Nick Riewoldt in 2005, but courtesy of an interview by the Roar Deal’s own Michael Whiting, the tensions between Brisbane and St Kilda have boiled over in a big way.  

Today on the podcast, we’ll talk through the salary saga that has captivated the footy world with the man who found himself at the centre of it all.

And, with less than a month to go now until our Opening Round clash against the Bulldogs, we’ll also talk a bit more about the selection squeeze following last Friday’s intraclub out at Brighton Homes Arena.

Also this week:

-Will State of Origin work?

-An enormous update in Dom’s marathon mission

-How many captains will the Lions have in 2026?

And much more!
