That’s all, folks! We said we were going to go out with a bang, and that’s exactly what we’re doing.

Let's face it, in MvA's tenure as undisputed host of DFS, he had a tendency to get pretty angry and say it as it is. Two of his best sprays were directed and the mainstream media, namely the Rowey and Bicks and 5AA and 3AW Drive host Tom Elliott.

Mike Cockerill was a giant - physically and metaphorically - of Australian football until his untimely passing thanks to ill-health in August 2017.

Ahead of the FFA Cup Sydney Derby semi-final in October 2018, we were joined by veterans from Western Sydney Wanderers and Sydney FC; great friends Mark Bridge and Alex Brosque.

He wasn’t around for long, but Benny Jones was instrumental in getting DFS off the ground alongside Beaker and Mark van Aken.

Our Socceroos were so close to snatching a point away from eventual world champions France at the 2018 World Cup, but it wasn't to be in Kazan thanks to a fluke Paul Pogba goal. We reflected on the game in our hotel room, and a slightly frustrated Crawf called on Aussies to take drastic action against villain of the day Lucas Hernandez.  For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

David Williams returned from Europe for the 2018-19 A-League season, signing for Wellington Phoenix.

South Melbourne went on an incredible FFA Cup run in the 2017 edition, but that wasn't the biggest takeaway from our chat with former Melbourne Victory man Matt Foschini.

The big cheese! In April 2019, we welcomed new FFA chairman Chris Nikou onto the show after one of the most tumultuous periods in FFA's young history.

A man who takes nothing in life for granted. In February 2018, Socceroo Milos Degenek joined us soon after his move to Yokohama F Marinos, explaining what it was like working under Ange Postecoglou and club level and why he treats every day - every game - as though it's his last.  For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
