L-R: Vanessa Gatica, Habir Singh Kang, Gabriel D'Angelo, Eugene Hawryszko and Terry Daniher The Multicultural AFL Football TV and Radio Show – Round 20 By Fiv Antoniou 31/7/2019 Last week saw a further setback for the Magpies going down to the Tigers by 32 points, Brisbane continued on their merry way to the top by comprehensively defeating the Hawks in Tassie, Carlton with a rampaging Patrick Cripps on his way to a Brownlow, sent the Adelaide Crows packing with a deficit of 28 points. Over in the Perth, the Eagles annihilated the Kangaroos, while from Marvel Stadium St. Kilda prevailed over the Demons with an emphatic last quarter performance and the GWS Giants got home by a solitary point over Port Power in Adelaide. Sunday saw the Bulldogs roll over the Fremantle Dockers, Geelong were too good for the Swans at the SCG and Essendon just got over the line in the last couple of minutes of the match and avoided humiliation after the Gold Coast Suns held the lead for m

Melbourne from Marvel Stadium,  Saturday 7:15 pm EST on 3ZZZ Digital online. Last week the Essendon Bombers blitzed the Adelaide Crows in a come from behind victory. Richmond did the job on Port Adelaide, Fremantle squeezed in by a point against the unlucky Swans, Carlton exacted revenge on the under-performing Suns, the GWS Giants steamrolled Collingwood - it was all over for the Magpies in the first quarter 50 points to 7 -, Hawthorn humbled the Cats by four goals, while West Coast in Alice Springs just got over the line to defeat the Demons. Ratten’s Saints played all over the Doggies for a much needed victory and the Brisbane Lions are now sitting second on the ladder after disposing of the “Roos” last weekend! The top 8 are still quite fluid and nothing is s

Hawthorn from the MCG, Sunday 1:10pm EST on 3ZZZ Digital on-line. Last week Collingwood made it back to the winner's circle with a one-point win over the Eagles in Perth. Essendon got lucky against the ‘Roos, Carlton did very well defeating the Swans at the SCG, Hawthorn dismantled the Dockers in Tassie, Richmond rolled the Giants at, where else, the MCG and the real deal Brisbane Lions crushed Port Adelaide in Adelaide. The Bulldogs defeated Melbourne in a lacklustre game, the Gold Coast Suns capitulated to the Crows by a big margin and Geelong did the number on the Saints. Last but not least, it was coming, Alan Richardson was sacked as the Saints’ coach this week and replaced with interim coach Brett Ratten. Mind you Brett ma

L-R Habir Singh Kang, Vanessa Gatica, Gabriel D'Angelo and Fiv Antoniou   The Multicultural AFL Football TV and Radio Show – Round 17 By Fiv Antoniou 10/7/2019 NEMBC Live Match Day broadcast this week in ARABIC: Richmond v. GWS Giants from the MCG, Sunday 1:10 pm EST on 3ZZZ Digital on-line. Last week was a tipster’s disaster as only a few favourites got up from some roughies which really did shine. In a nutshell, Essendon beat the Swans to be well on their way to making the 8. Collingwood went down again this time to the Hawks by 4 points. Richmond decimated the Suns, so watch out, the Tigers are coming! Port Adelaide wiped the floor with the Crows, the Bulldogs ate the Cats, West Coast crushed Fremantle, Brisbane monstered the Giants, the Roos rolled over the Saints, while the Blues and Demons fought out a thriller at the “G”. Essendon outplayed the Swans to win by 10 points. The score was not the most significant factor in this game it was the way the Bombers,

The Multicultural AFL Football TV & Radio Show – Round 16 By Fiv Antoniou 3/7/2019 Last Thursday night from Marvel, Essendon beat the GWS Giants by a single kick (6 points), but it wasn’t the winning goal that was surrounded by controversy it was the previous goal that drew the two sides level that became the contentious issue. It was revealed by the League that not all goals are reviewed (contrary to what broadcast commentators assume) by the video scrutineers who are part-time employees of the AFL and not umpires. The bottom line is for the AFL to get the camera technology and human element correct and on the same page, because if they don’t soon, the goal review system’s credibility is for naught! Round 15 saw Geelong get back on track with a big win over the Crows, West Coast got lucky with Hawthorn, Collingwood suffered a humiliating defeat to the ‘Roos. In fact, the Magpies kicked 37 points for the game, their lowest score for 25 years, while Port Adelaide in a
