Yessss Faffers! We had lots to get through today after a big few days in footy, and started the show by paying tribute to Neale Daniher following his passing earlier in the week. We then ran an emergency Linc's List to unpack Brad Scott's departure from Essendon and discussed the possibility of James Hird returning to the club. We still found time to go through the weekend's matches and Brett's Power Rankings, while our new segment, Mick's Masterclass, also made its debut. Enjoy!

Mum's turning 70 in November, so we're heading to WA with the fam. It'll be great to catch up with everyone, but one thing you really need on a family catch-up weekend is a bit of space. Airbnb to the rescue. We can all be together in one place, but not in each other's pockets. Find a place with a beautiful outdoor area, a fire pit, or maybe even a fireplace in the lounge room. Airbnb allows that extra bit of breathing room that keeps everyone sweet. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the Carlton Draft is back, and it's about to kick off in a big, big way. Six ex-AFL stars, three blockbuster local games, and rivalries galore. Saturday, May 30 is the first one to put in the diary. We've got Essendon's very own Dyson Heppell lining up for the Tamworth Kangas versing three-time premiership hawk, Josh Gibson, who is pulling on the jersey for the Tamworth Swans. These clubs share the same facilities, the same community, and the same town. I can't wait to see who takes out the Abbott George Cup this year. Get down to Tamworth Oval for the first bounce at 2:00 PM, May 30. The Carlton Draft, 18 plus, drink responsibly. We've hit the halfway point of the AFL season, and now things are getting serious. Round 12 is where the line is drawn between the genuine finals contenders and the teams running out of time. For those clubs on the bubble, every game from here is basically a must-win. It's now or never. Step up or watch September slip away, and round 12 is stacked. It all kicks off on Thursday night with St. Kilda taking on Hawthorn in a huge start to the round. Then Friday night, Carlton face Geelong in another blockbuster clash.
