Herald Sun Footy Podcast: Lauren Wood, Jon Anderson, Scott Gullan debate quarantine hubs, big footy issues

Finding a location for a quarantine hub is just the start. Which teams will be based in each state, and who makes that call? That’s up for debate on this week’s Herald Sun Footy Podcast.

Will Eddie McGuire have a say on which hub Collingwood is based at?

Deciding to restart the season in quarantine hubs is just the start of the AFL’s looming headaches in a season like no other.

Gillon McLachlan and his team not only have to find suitable locations for the hubs, but then decide which clubs will be based where.

With the possibility of one hub in Victoria and one or two more interstate, it creates a dilemma pointed out by Herald Sun reporter Scott Gullan on this week’s Herald Sun Footy Podcast.

“How do you come up with which Victorian clubs have to disappear to interstate?” he asked.

“Can you imagine Eddie (McGuire) saying, ‘Yeah, Collingwood will go’. That’s going to be on for young and old.”

Gullan, Jon Anderson and Lauren Wood reveal the latest mail on where the hubs will be, what the AFL moves for local footy, where will John Worsfold go after he hands in the keys as Essendon coach, NFL recruit Arryn Siposs gets on the line and Ando names his best Geelong team of the past 50 years - and a Brownlow medallist misses out.
