So we had to finish Sacked season 5 by talking the biggest bombshell sackings of the century with Ando & Bruce Eva. They brought some jaw-dropping stories themselves. Pagan to Geelong! Trevor Barker revelations. So entertaining. Thanks for listening podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/sac…

Has the game changed forever? Fox Footy's expert panel unpacked "footy's ultimate polarising case" last night... and it's fair to say there were some STRONG thoughts 🔥 MORE >> bit.ly/3H29l8Y

No one has a better record on Grand Final entertainment predictions than Ross. Might as well take it to the bank

Sacked with Stewart Crameri. The Tank who got turned into a star forward, getting ‘set up’ over the Essendon scandal, missing a flag while banned at the Dogs, the final chapter at Geelong. A fascinating listen. We start with the Essendon 34 @MaccaHeraldSun heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/sack…

Charlie Curnow. “I’m playing at Carlton next year.” From Josh Barnes. And the Silvagni state of play. Blues have offered four years, Pies also four years but at slightly better money. Great mates with Dan Houston. Decisions ahead 👇 heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/news…

Charlie Curnow has told journalists tonight he ain’t leaving. Adamant he never asked for a trade. We will discuss it coming up soon on @FOXFOOTY

Hawks says Newcombe (subbed off) is only being managed. Pittonet sub was tactical @FOXFOOTY

Harry McKay back out and ready to resume after going down to the rooms to have his ribs/stomach checked out @FOXFOOTY

There’s no trade scenario that would tempt the Blues to trade Curnow. They believe he is happy to play at the Blues even if he has some wanderlust. Carlton won’t up its four year offer to Silvagni if he can get longer tenure or more 💰 elsewhere 👀 👇heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/news…

Scans for Weddle next week. The club doesn’t know how well his back bone stress has healed but if they get a positive result he returns within the home & away season. Maginness will fly back home over the weekend, should be fully recovered by day one of the preseason @FOXFOOTY

Sounds ridiculous but Hawks footy boss Rob McCartney says after the work of the fitness-rehab team Day is stronger then when he suffered his navicular issue in round 3 and potentially fitter. He has done a power of work. Might lack a bit of touch but he’s ready to go @FOXFOOTY

Will Day is fit and ready and hasn’t been rushed at all from his navicular. So the expectation from the Hawks is that he will dodge the subs vest. The Hawks only make their players available to play when they are ready to run out a full AFL game @FOXFOOTY

This is not a Vic v WA thing. It’s the AFL trying to get some purity back in the top end of a draft riddled with compromise. Saints might end the season with pick 4, get to the draft with pick nine given academy, FS and compo picks. A live scenario in the story 👇

Exclusive. Why the AFL will review its free agency compensation over summer in a season where West Coast will almost certainly get the first two picks in the draft because of Oscar Allen compo. Too many clubs gaming the system. The options ahead 👇 heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/afl-…

Melbourne faces a high bar to overturn the May suspension. But they will try, still shocked the Evans text message which saw him admitting he thought May would get to the contest first wasn’t officially admitted at the tribunal 👇heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/demo…

Dimma a long way from a no on Charlie Curnow. As you would imagine

The case will be held next week given May is concussed anyway and in the protocols. Melbourne footy boss Alan Richardson: "Steven's sole intention was to win the ball and we believe he provided a contest in a reasonable way given the circumstances."

Melbourne is appealing the May verdict @heraldsunsport
