Worth putting up with BT to have this sort of access to the players/rooms after a finals win.    The vibe in there is electric.

Bonus points to Clayton Oliver for the pizz take of Brian.

    I agree. I find it hard to listen to Brian. I'll admit he's helped create any interesting viewing point with Roaming Brian, but it's laced with self and afl promotion. 

    Our list is full of interesting and lovable players. It's really nice watching the joy and affection shared by family members, close friends, staff and players.

    Oskar Baker was sitting there next to Clarry, with a great opportunity to be interviewed. Bt looked at him, realized he didn't know who it was and then went looking for someone that he recognized.

    If BT is going to roam during the finals, he needs to know every player on every list.

    Hey Dr.D , I just like to let you know this kid called Oskar Baker can play and is highly regarded. This is the kind of kid that we are going after to make our club better. You will see much of him next season. I will keep you informed.

    I don't he has they necessary skills in engagement to interview people well when their too far from the know players. His manners are forward, crude and assuming.

    By the way, the full segment was like 15 minutes including a great interview with the very fired up mum and dad of the McDonald brothers.

    If someone has the full segment please post, not sure why the uploader only posted 8 minutes of it.

    Just finished watching BT’s segment. Where was Hogan? Anyone see him in the rooms?  Every somebody and nobody connected with the club was there. He has kind of disappeared lately like he must be doing a stint in a remote lamasery in the Himalayas.

    Was in the rooms after the win and Tom went over to his mum and dad, he let his mum give him a kiss but shrugged off his dad when he tried to give him a hug, priceless

    I love my footy on TV but roaming Brian is easily the most cringe-worthy, embarrassing, superficial non event I have ever seen. I simply loathe it. I actually like his commentary (and I know I am in the minority) but his roaming stuff is just an opportunity for the commentary team to have a self indulgent giggle full of in-jokes which no one else enjoys. 

    I am very grateful for the mute button.

    And his interruption of other radio and TV interviewers is just plain rude.

    Never thought I would ever read that.

    Brain Taylors commentary is the worst on any AFL media at the moment.

    "cant believe it"

    "cant believe it"

    "cant believe it"

    "can not believe it"

     

    Are you fugn kidding me? He is an embarrassment to the game. I hope none of his deplorable commentary is seen by internationals. It's as bad as the AFL entertainment extravaganzas of old.

    One interesting moment was seeing Jetta's tall dad and wondering why Nev is so small.  Then the camera turned to his mum and all was explained.

    There is nothing on this earth that is worth putting up with BT.

    I actually enjoy Roaming Brian as it is a lighthearted look behind the scenes.

    Rather watch that, than the pontificating that goes on with some of the footy panels.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
