THE HITOUT: Drafting the AFL teams… with a catch

Phoenix, Aidan and Mitch are tasked with drafting all 18 clubs, with key criteria set in place to see who will come out on top at the end of the 2026 AFL season. Phoenix pays tribute to the retired Steven May, and debate over which nations would contend for gold at the Olympics if Aussie Rules was added. Plus, the team recall their favourite Dennis Cometti moments following the iconic commentator’s passing.
