Award Robberies, NRL Pretenders & AFL Scone Deals | AOTG Ep. 19

Trophies that never should’ve been won, NRL teams exposed, and Clayton Oliver lured with homemade scones? Yeah, this episode has everything.

Ryan and Jez kick things off by diving into a fiery list of the Top 5 biggest award snubs and controversies in sport. From Dally M medals and Brownlow snubs to Billy Slater’s head-scratching Origin award and Jokić being robbed of MVP despite historic stats—no code is safe.

The debate heats up as they break down whether players from losing teams should ever win grand final MVPs, and whether suspensions should disqualify players from season awards. Spoiler: Jez has some thoughts.

Then it’s Below Average time and the boys tee off on two NRL clubs going nowhere—the Titans and Dragons. Despite early-season hype, neither side is converting enough chances, and Des Hasler’s seat is getting hotter by the week.

The show wraps with a fired-up segment on player movement drama, from Cherry-Evans and Manly’s collapse to Clayton Oliver getting wooed at a Geelong farmhouse. Is player loyalty dead? And what’s the fix?

This one’s got spice. Awards, controversy, footy gossip, and a healthy dose of scone-based recruiting tactics.
