The Early Crow

Show Notes

We're running it back two weeks in a row with Dicko & Paps! 🐓🔥 Episode 93, “Sickies”, is up and about with plenty of AFL, Sydney Swans, horse racing, black bookers and the usual banter.

🦢 AFL The main footy chat centres around the Sydney Swans' clash with Port Adelaide, with plenty to unpack from the weekend.

Paps runs through Dattoli's impressive performance after earning his opportunity, before the conversation turns to Logan McDonald, aka Big Bruce, and his growing impact on the AFL competition. 💪

The boys also discuss: 🏉 Will Green making his Sydney debut and holding his own against Jordan Sweet in the ruck. 🔥 Charlie Cameron kicking a bag and making his presence felt. ⚡ Jai Serong running amuck on the wing and showing why he's one of Sydney's exciting new recruits.

The lads then cast their eyes across the rest of the competition, looking at the teams sitting around the top of the AFL ladder and which sides could genuinely challenge for the premiership.

🏆 And Paps reveals who he thinks is the toughest team to beat outside of the Swans.

🏇 Eyes On Ponies The attention then turns to the weekend's racing, with the boys reviewing the action from Caulfield Heath and Randwick. 💨 A deep dive into The Missile Stakes 👀 Angel Capital gets plenty of attention, with the boys asking whether it's time to zig while everyone else is zagging. 📕 And then Dicko goes rogue... He brings you TWO black bookers from the weekend's racing — one from Queensland and another from Morphettville. Who are they? You'll have to listen to find out. 👀🐎
