Freedom In A Cage: The Official Western Bulldogs Podcast

The familiar smell of jasmine in the Melbourne air usually means AFL finals are around the corner.For the Bulldogs players up north, there might not be that traditional scent, but finals fever is well and truly in their conscious.And what better three gentlemen to chat about the business end an AFL season than Bob Murphy, Marcus Bontempelli and Dale Morris.Bob and Bont catch up for the 22nd episode of The Barkly Street podcast to discuss the build-up to Saturday’s Elimination Final clash with St Kilda, reflect on the career of Tory Dickson and recognise the Dogs’ three All-Australian representatives.They also cover off the fitness of Aaron Naughton and Mitch Wallis, and give their take on the pre-finals bye week.Premiership hero Morris jumps onto the Zoom call from Melbourne to talk about his year so far, which included being unfortunately stood down as a development coach, before recently accepting a role in the Club’s commercial department.‘Moz’ also outlines how he rediscovered his academic skills as a remote learning teacher, found time to sneak in the odd weights session in the home gym, how he misses playing footy, and the difficult process of retiring from the game at the highest level.

Son of a Western Bulldogs gun, new dad and goalkicking extraordinaire Mitch Wallis was the special guest on another must-listen-to edition of the Barkly Street podcast this week.Wallis has not only tamed the Sherrin this year with 23 goals in the forward 50 for the Dogs, but alongside partner Emily, he’s also mastered the early stages of parenthood.Joining Bob Murphy and Marcus Bontempelli on Zoom from the Gold Coast hub, Wallis explains that despite venturing to Queensland just 13 days after being born, baby Charlotte is already sleeping through the night.While that may be enough to send the iPods of young parents flying into their living room walls, it’s surely helping the Bulldogs star put together a brilliant 2020 season.Wallis explains the origins of his move to the midfield to the forward line, how he’s getting used to being ‘tagged’ every week, the honour of being a father-son selection, and the special place the Bulldogs have in his heart as he prepares for his 150th game in the red, white and blue.Before the number three logs on, Bob and Bont chat about this Sunday’s pseudo elimination final against Fremantle, how the dazzling form of Caleb Daniel might be overshadowing the skipper’s usual aura, the devastation of Toby McLean’s knee injury and much more.

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.Edited

Conspiracy theories abound about the correlation between recordings of The Barkly Street Podcast and Bulldogs victories.Dogs fans are buying into the suspicion that the Dogs seem to play their best footy when their club’s official podcast, co-hosted by Bob Murphy and Marcus Bontempelli, hits the airwaves in the lead-up to a match.After all, a mid-season podcast hiatus resulted in three straight Bulldogs losses, and again it seemed to be the missing ingredient as the Club suffered a heart-breaking loss to Geelong last Friday night.It meant it was priority one for Bob and Bont to jump straight back on zoom this week to record episode 19 of Barkly Street, and they brought Club champion Daniel Giansiracusa along for the ride for good measure.The trio discusses Gia’s form on the golf course, his experiences as the Dogs’ AFL runner (including how successful he is at delivering messages to the Bont), coaching the Club’s scratch matches in their Queensland hub, and what it was like wearing the green vest as the substitute in his playing days.The boys then jump into the ‘Footy DeLorean’ for an episode of Dog Tales, examining Giansiracusa’s brilliant match-winning goal against the Tigers in Round 3, 2014.Bob and Bont also chat about the Club’s new partnership with McDonald’s (and Bob’s idea for a new burger), how the Bulldogs are approaching their final three matches of the home and away season, the extent of Bont’s fishing knowledge after a day out ‘casting and reeling’, and the escalation of abuse players are encountering on social media.

Michael ‘Magic’ McLean gives Bulldogs fans a fascinating insight into his football life on this week’s episode of The Barkly Street Podcast.In the lead-up to the annual Sir Doug Nicholls Round, the Bulldogs’ most accomplished Aboriginal player joins Bob Murphy and Marcus Bontempelli to recount his incredible playing career across two decades, and two clubs.McLean’s journey includes leaving Darwin as a teenager, making his name at the Bulldogs, tackling racism head-on, dealing with debilitating injuries, reinvigorating his career at Brisbane and captaining the Indigenous All-Stars.Now back in the Northern Territory, McLean also recalls the key role he played in taking a stand against racism in sport, which later led to the establishment of the AFL’s Racial Vilification Code.With the Bulldogs’ crucial Round 13 clash with Melbourne around the corner, Bob and Bont also discuss the team’s return to form, Aaron Naughton and Bailey Smith’s influence, and the wash-up of the first ‘Footy Frenzy’ period.

‘That goal’ against Essendon in the year 2000 is the subject of a Barkly Street deep dive on this week’s Western Bulldogs podcast.After a short hiatus during the AFL’s ‘Footy Frenzy’, Barkly Street is back this week with co-hosts Bob Murphy and Marcus Bontempelli uniting on Zoom from Melbourne and Queensland respectively.They’re joined by Bulldog royalty, in the form of Club legend and current Director of Football, Chris Grant, to recall that famous moment 20 years ago when his incredible snap from the boundary handed the Bombers their only defeat of an otherwise dominant 2000 season.‘The great flood’, as it’s come to be known, was a piece of coaching genius by Terry Wallace, with Grant and a teenage Murphy right in the think of the action.The trio discusses the week leading into that match, how Bob was forced to keep the revolutionary game plan a secret from his school mates, Wallace’s brutal honesty about the Dogs’ chances against the all-conquering Bombers, the frantic minutes leading up to the moment of the match, and of course, that glorious shot at goal by Grant as the clock wound down.
