Dan Does Footy

DGM

He could have been anything, but instead, he chose to be a below-average AFL footballer for 7 years. 

Now, Dan Gorringe looks to give that same effort to listeners, by giving unfiltered and unqualified insights each week into everything AFL and more.

This is footy, but not like you know it.

    Believe....With Caution

    As a great man once said, dicks in, Nicks out... The Big Red Shed can smell REAL finals this week, while Dan can smell more crap from Scott Pendlebury's Cryo Chamber. Meanwhile, Joey sets the record straight ahead of his Hawks' clash with Freo, and Ash is getting into the advertising game. Also, who's the Dajeon Love of the AFL? Asking for a friend.

    Worst Weekend Ever (Not)

    Send Thy Cow For Zakary

    Feeling reaaal good this Friday... Joey's scrambling to make-up for his 14 cheeseburgers he still has to eat, while Dan is trying to calculate how many 'Ken Hinkley's' Geelong should be smacked with. Also, Xander is shooting better than Steph Curry, while Doc wants you to remember who REALLY sent the Blues to the 2023 Prelim...

    Welcome To The Circus

    The one where Ash gets stuck in traffic... While Dan is in a Wildcard fantasy, Essendon finally have a reality check and end the James Hird dream with the announcement of Mark McVeigh as their new senior coach. Also, the boys are full behind pub press releases. Zac Butters confirms he wants to go home, and while we aren't shocked by that news, we will be AMAZED if our Joey can get through 30 Cheeseburgers on today's livestream, as Goz also tries to run down 60km.

    How The Turns Have Tabled

    Well, well, well… It’sssssss FINALS TIME (yes, it is), and look who’s joined the Blues’ in their “little thing.” It's very happy end to the season for our bottom 8, while a very scary three-peat is somehow still on the cards after the Lions pump the Pies. Meanwhile, Dan is being realistic for once, Joey is staring down the battle of a Hawks massacre against Freo, and Ash keeping a lid on his Dees for the first time ever.

    Thank God That's Over

    Melbourne is officially an NRL city... The Feel-Good-Friday team witnessed an entire Thursday night crowd turn into chairs last night, as the Saints and Suns close out the season in one of the games of all time... Meanwhile, Dan and Joey are still trying to figure out how to run 250km and smash 30 cheeseburgers in a day, as the boys set the rules for the livestream next Wednesday. Also, Lego is now a major sponsor of the Dees now...go figure.

    Give It a REST

    We're loving Fraser instead... The boys close out the last Wild Wednesday of the regular season with a karaoke opener for the ages, and a countdown of the AFL's most rogue units (Dane Swan's Brownlow-night Spider-Man costume included). Josh Fraser gets confirmed as Carlton's new coach, the Zak Butters recruitment pitch takes a turn nobody expected (a single meow, no context), and it's a full lap of the last round before Wild Card Weekend takes over...or as some say, Round 25.

    Let's Get WILD

    The Big Red Shed can SMELL finals… The boys are riding high after last round's results…well, most of us. Dan is buzzing, with the Blues locking in a wildcard spot off the back of an incredible turnaround from 1-8 under Josh Fraser, while Joey is somehow unfazed about the performance from the Hawks (a 125-58 shellacking at the hands of the Lions). Ash is as chirpy as ever, and for a good reason, Melbourne got the job done over Freo in an absolute classic, arguably THE Game of the Year. Plus, Poppy's officially picked her AFL team, and it's a choice...

The Rats are back together, with one of them fresh off two hours of sleep and a flight home from the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow...but rest assured, we all have a massive Shinboner. Joey's "Blue and White Chad Warner" has kept the wildcard race wide open, but Dan still can't wrap his head around how Geelong escaped the AFL's wrath yet again.

Dan also somehow ends up reviewing The Odyssey, Joey questions half the AFL's decision making, Blink-182 gets another mention, and the episode somehow finishes with an incredibly serious Party Food Draft...
