  How To Survive Straight-Set Exits 08.09.2026 56min

  They couldn't....could they? Semifinal weekend is here and the boys open with Ash absolutely flattening a karaoke classic before getting into the real business. Alastair Clarkson dumping his entire North Melbourne wardrobe at Vinnies in the most petty breakup imaginable, Tim English's wife dropping a "dog days are over" TikTok that sends Bulldogs fans into meltdown, and the AFL quietly introducing a contact training cap that nobody can quite explain. Throw in a Luke Ryan secretl, Zane Duursmaa asking out of North, and Ash finally landing his first personal sponsor (we thinlk), and it's a stacked one before the footy even starts. Full semifinal breakdown of Freo-Hawks and Adelaide–Brisbane to close it out.
