## Resource

Corbin, Ben and Marc Murphy dissect the AFL’s stance on their ARC decisions and whether the calls are truly improving the game or if it's just adding more grey and confusion. Off the back of Sabastian Sawe’s sub 2-hour London Marathon run, the team discuss who are the best runners in AFL. Commentators are buzzing about unicorns, but just how many can realistically show up in one weekend? Plus, all the biggest winners and losers of Round 7 and are the Gold Coast Suns in trouble? ABC AFL commentators Corbin Middlemas and Ben Cameron are joined by a rolling squad of former AFL players and legends of the game to analyse matches, deep dive the stories dominating the footy landscape, recap game highlights and talk through the latest AFL ladder standings. Our squad of Aussie Rules legends runs deep with champion ex-players like Brett Deledio, Marc Murphy and Luke Ball, record-holding coach Mick Malthouse and many more. The team discuss everything from AFL games and fixtures, to the AFL draft and key players' performance, and of course our highlights of the year; AFL Grand Final and AFL State of Origin.
