.00 – Discussion of The Last Dance on Netflix. Can’t ever see an AFL documentary ever going as deep as this. Not likely with the budgets we have to work with in Australia.

6.30 – The retirement of Alan Jones. Huge story for the radio landscape. Only Kyle & Jackie O have been able to move an audience with them like Alan did. People like Alan aren’t easily replaced in the market.

10.30 – Hamish McLenna appointed as new chairman of Rugby Australia. Has Rugby lost all relevance?

14.00 – Have Australian sports been too reliant on Broadcast Rights cash?

16.30 – Damo addresses suggestions that AFL Media might not be able to survive the Covid-19 crisis. Hutchy believes codes having their own digital platforms is even more important than ever in the current climate.

22.00 – Mark Robinson admitted on the You Can Not Be Serious podcast that a story featuring Kane Cornes was quashed.

27.00 - Discussion of the Jack Steven story. Should a police investigation be mutually exclusive to an AFL integrity inquiry?

30.00 – People are on edge at the moment. Twitter is a vicious place. Journo’s are whacking each other. Hutchy imploring people to turn over a new leaf. Why can’t we make fresh starts?

33.00 – The Sounding Board is getting embroiled in ‘burner account’ watch. So much mail about alleged burner account by Tom Browne – which Tom has denied.

34.30 – Discussion of the latest Podcast Ranking stats and how reliable the figures are. Credit to The Howie Games for being the top Sports podcast.

40.00 – NBL issues. Liquidation of the Illawarra Hawks. Innovation happening among the teams. The NBL has the ability to create excitement with small crowds.

43.30 – Question of the Week for Social Status. James Hawkins via Twitter asked;

“What do you think AFL clubs will do with memberships this year?”

Social Media Marketing is more important than ever, visit SocialStatus.com.au, make sales or your money back!

47.00 – Will we be attending sporting events even if we’re allowed to with small crowds? How will tickets be allocated? Will it be fair?
