This week Georgie and Abbey dive deep into the fallout from Izak Rankine's homophobic slur - a story that’s shaking the AFL on the eve of finals. With special guest Kate McCarthy, they unpack the culture that still allows this language to surface, the AFL’s mixed messaging on zero tolerance, and what it means for fans who feel left out of the game they love. Plus: the best and worst of player initiations, why Remember the Titans still holds up, and the rise of AFLW’s unstoppable force, Zippy Fish.
