What's the Deal With Mr Brownlow?

What's the Deal With Mr Brownlow?

The boys are ecstatic (and Producer Sam too) with the Giants surprise win over the Freo Dockers and dare to dream, are we so back?   They look to the upcoming clash with Geelong and analyse the glut of teams at the bottom end of the top ten to ascertain whether the Giants can still make it (they can!).  Alex then tells the first part of the tale of the polymath and trailblazing Charles Brownlow. Who's so much more than just a medal.  Email us at:  theymightbecomegiants@gmail.com Follow us on: Insta: @theymightbecomegiants X: @becomegiantspod YouTube: @theymightbecomegiants See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

There's Gold In Them Hills

While the lads are naturally disappointed in the loss to the Hawks, they can see the green shoots that are sprouting. Brandon predicts 2027 will be a huge year for the Giants and Alex believes a goof run with injury (unlike this cursed season) and some more games in the young guns will see the Giants back on top in no time.  Brandon then gives the history of Penrith, the city at the foot of the hills and how it came to be the rugby league powerhouse it is today.  Email us at:  theymightbecomegiants@gmail.com Follow us on: Insta: @theymightbecomegiants X: @becomegiantspod YouTube: @theymightbecomegiants See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

Holding On For Dear Life

The boys commiserate what could be a season ending couple of losses, but ever the optimists, look forward to their clash with Hawthorn.  Alex then tells the tale of Canberra's biggest ever sporting event, courtesy of one Robert Menzies.  Credit to the Footy Almanac [https://www.footyalmanac.com.au/almanac-footy-history-when-carlton-conquered-canberra/] for this week's history.  Email us at:  theymightbecomegiants@gmail.com Follow us on: Insta: @theymightbecomegiants X: @becomegiantspod YouTube: @theymightbecomegiants See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

We've Got The Blues

Live and Let Bye

With no more byes for the Giants this year, the boys are revved up and excited for what the rest of the footy year holds in store. They also check in on the rest of the competition, rub a little salt in the wounds of Producer Sam's West Coast Eagles, and dive into the mailbag to answer your listener emails.  Email us at:  theymightbecomegiants@gmail.com Follow us on: Insta: @theymightbecomegiants X: @becomegiantspod YouTube: @theymightbecomegiants See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
