“The guys are able to summarise what is (or isn’t) happening on the field in an easy to understand way. Look at game trends and overall game plans and dumb it down for the average listener.
Very unique to any other bombers podcast. Strongly recommend for both the serious ‘know it all’ supporters...”Read full review »

Don the Stat shows us things at Essendon are never as bad as they seem, or as good as they seem!”
