SEN SA Breakfast with Bicks & Walshy

Summary

The discussion centers on the quality of Australian Rules Football games, specifically questioning whether certain teams deserve marquee matchups. The conversation highlights Richmond's recent struggles, suggesting that their performance may not warrant a prime time showcase. Despite Richmond's past successes, including multiple premierships in recent years, their current form raises concerns about their competitiveness in high-profile games.

The hosts also draw a comparison with the Anzac Day match, traditionally a significant event in the AFL calendar. They argue that if Richmond is being considered for removal from a key time slot due to their performance, similar scrutiny should be applied to the Anzac Day game, especially given Essendon's ongoing struggles. The conversation emphasizes the importance of having competitive teams and star players to create memorable sporting events, suggesting that the quality of the match should take precedence over tradition.
