On the view from the Outer Podcast, this week, which you can get on all social media platforms and spotify as part of the Dashing Dan Sporting Adventures Podcast thanks to D'asporto family restaurants, Dan Lonergan is on his own giving his view of the weekend';s four finals matches and the shock sacking of North Melbourne Coach, Alistair Clarkson.
He unlocks Hawthorn's stirring win in Perth over a disappointing Minor Premier, Fremantle, who arguably put in their worst performance of the season.
He talks about Carlton's great run coming to an end, one of the most inspirational finals victories ever when Sydney missing three of their best players banned from playing for the rest of the season along with two others by the club having their backs against the Wall and smashing the reigning premiers, Brisbane and Adelaide winning their first final for nine years and coach, Matthew Nicks' first ever against a gallant Western Bulldogs, who every season never seem to go up or down.
This win for Nicks and the Crows might also have saved the coach his job, with reports during the week claiming he would be sacked if they lost.
There is so much to talk about, so join Dan and get his view on the finals so far, what lies ahead and the silly season they call the trade period.
