First up, we reflect on the A-Leagues so far and what we might see into 2024: a third of the way through the men’s and nearly half way through the women’s, both of last year’s Premiers are off the pace and the finals aspirants are taking shape with half of last season’s finalists currently in play off contention – crowds are generally up – with a few aberrations, so a perfect time to reflect on the state of the game. Rob and Edge discuss it all with Simon Hill from Ten/Paramount +.

Meanwhile in a country where football is rarely less than in rude health Derek & Rob have a chat with Martin Tyler about how he thinks this helter skelter season will shape out and what his thoughts are on the rise and rise of the WSL. 

The guys end looking at Manchester City's dominant win over Fluminense in the World Club Championship.
