Only four games in the inaugural Opening Round of the AFL 2024 Season, but some storylines and results that are almost impossible not to overeact to. Carlton's coming of Age? Collingwood with the Collywobbles early? Giants into flag favouritism? New dawn rising at Gold Coast?

"Staying humble". You hear it all the time from athletes in sports all over the world... well, round 3 threw out a few lessons in humility for a number of clubs. 

The Crows are one step away from being completely humiliated, Port were humbled at home (despite long periods of dominance), and Richmond found a way to pinch a win off a contender despite their humble list. 

Plus Adam and Joe do a few site inspections on a few AFL clubs who are quietly building their lists.

But how many Gather Rounds should there be in future seasons and where? 

Also, do you bacak the Umpires to make game-changing calls for indiscretions like dissent as seen the Fremantle v Carlton match? Put the whistle away or hold your tongue? This is a debate you won't want to miss.

We finally have our first complete picture of the AFL season and we see West Coast begin to soar off a back of a roaring Harley, Geelong purring nicely and Carlton score important wins while undermanned. 

Plus Adam poses the question, why should the Father-Son (see also Father-Daughter) draft rule continue to exist?
