  • Law and Order: A-Liga Intent | February 26 2023

    Law and Order: A-Liga Intent | February 26 2023
    Feb 28 2023
    In the A-Liga justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups. The PFA who investigate crime and the Independent Judiciary Committees who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories. DUN DUN When the week is highlighted by claims that a coach punched one of their players and the PFA are investigating, you know it's a weird one. Stoll and Joey are joined by TNC's man in West Australia Ben Smith to discuss the allegations that were levelled against Perth Glory coach Ruben Zadkovich last week, as well as his suggestion that someone might be out to get the club. The boys are also joined at the start of the show by Taryn Heddo, who helps break down the increasingly tight race for the final playoff place in the A-Liga Femenina. Taryn also gives an insight into the importance of pride and acceptance in football and the broader community, as the team talks about a successful first-ever A-Leagues Pride round across the weekend. There's also a breakdown of the latest A-Liga Hombres round, including Nestor Irankunda's screamer to earn Adelaide a point against Melbourne Victory, and a whole lot more. Thanks and Success.

  • Putting TNC in its Best Position | 20 February 2023

    Putting TNC in its Best Position | 20 February 2023
    Feb 20 2023
    Riding a six-game winning streak, the vibes are good around the Matildas. Surely nothing to complain about, right? Don't worry; Joey Lynch, Nick Stoll, Josh Parish and special guest Taryn Heddo found some stuff to gripe about. Then after subbing out Taryn for Nick D'Urbano, the pod breaks down the latest iteration of the Melb Derby (are the Vuck back?), Warren Moon's ouster from Brisbane Roar, the A-Liga Belt, the barmy 4-4 draw between Adelaide and Western Sydney Wanderers, and answer your questions. All that and more, including the pod's attempts to salvage some respectability after Josh was ethered by an A-Liga star on Twitter. Poi Bo! Thanks and Success.

  • Glory Gorilla Warfare | 12 February 2023

    Glory Gorilla Warfare | 12 February 2023
    Feb 12 2023
    Sydney is Sky Blue once again after the latest iteration of the Sydney Derby! Is Max Burgess the GOAT? Should coach's consult the latest socioeconomic data before they talk to the press? Is the Sydney Derby just a case of the first goal wins? Joey, Stoll, D'Urbano, Josh, and Smith are here to break it all down. In more ALM chat, there's the future of Macarthur under Mile Sterjovski, Melbourne City's status as kings of the Box Office, where Perth Glory should set up permanent shop, and an in-depth discussion of George the Glory Gorilla's observation of a minute's silence on the weekend. On the ALW front, the finals race is heating up. Can anyone break the quad that currently exists in the top four? Canberra? Glory? Brisbane? Wanderers? And who is most likely to drop out for one of those teams? If any? And is Jordy Bos one of Australia's best left-backs already? Should Arnie cap him? Who else? Plus, there's been a change in the A-Liga Women's Belt! All that and more! Thanks and Success.
