The program focuses on the current issues in the Australian Football League. It first aired on 16 March 2008[1] and airs at 10am on Sundays throughout the AFL season.

History

The weekly program is hosted by Hamish McLachlan[1] and has regular guests such as Leigh Matthews, Mark Stevens, Jude Bolton, Cameron Ling or Jimmy Bartel. Several current players or coaches also appear each week. The program was extended to 90 minutes in 2012, finishing at 11:30 am, meaning the last half-hour goes head to head with the Nine Network's The Sunday Footy Show.

During the 2010 AFL finals series, the program was also broadcast on Thursday nights at 7:30 pm. A special Saturday morning edition has aired on the day of the Grand Final since 2012.

In March 2020, the program revealed a brand new set and graphics.

In June 2020, the program will be axed due to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.

Nat Edwards is the main fill-in presenter for McLachlan.
