AFL Damo
I just love her Blues theme intro humming. It blows my mind. Very sexy. 🥰
Impressed with Nat Edwards' German pronunciation!
my god the way damo talks is unbearable. love footy news but the way he constructs and delivers sentences is so annoying. cant do it anymore.
Definitely agree on Mason Cox. I'm not a Collingwood supporter but that guy has had a raw deal of late. Glad to see Harvey rolling the dice!
Keep up the great work you two! However... Damo...PLEASE stop comparing the AFL to the NFL. We copy them enough already (eg "9 things we learned"). Also do you think the NFL commentators ever mention AFL? Never...unless an Aussie Rules bloke is recruited as an NFL punter or kicker, and only then in passing mentions. I live in the U.S and still love my home country, along with our home grown AFL. I watch AFL videos and listen to AFL podcasts, looking forward to sport from home as much as possible. The cricket has been ruined, so there's only Footy left 😁. Please stop Americanizing? Other than that, the podcast is excellent. Thanks Damo and Nat! Cheers 🍻
Excellent podcast, nice!
