Some Bulldog royalty wandered onto Barkly Street for episode 20 of the Club’s official podcast this week.

Daniel Cross was the special guest of regular co-hosts Bob Murphy and Marcus Bontempelli, as the trio remembered the best moments of the 200-game Bulldog warrior’s career.

The trio ponders how Cross would excel in a footy hub with a compressed fixture, how he still hasn’t shaken the itch to play local football, his skills as a home-school teacher, and his craving to tackle an Ironman race one day.

They also spin some yarns from Cross’ time as a player for the Dogs, including a memorable high intensity running challenge against his good mate Matthew Boyd, and how his time trial winning streak was halted at the hands of Ed Barlow.

Bob and Bont also chat about NFL fantasy drafts, the vibe around the Queensland hub, the run home towards the finals, Bont’s match-winning goal against the Eagles, and much more.
