Hope abounds for Bulldogs and football fans alike, with a fresh new AFL season on the verge of kicking off.

And with that comes the inevitable return of Barkly Street, the Club’s official podcast.

For a fourth straight season, legendary Bulldogs half-back flanker Bob Murphy will take the pod driver’s seat, with premiership skipper Easton Wood locked in as his co-host for the 2021 campaign.

The thick-as-thieves Bulldogs buddies will take fans on an exciting journey this season, including chats with current and former players and some light-hearted regular segments.

Fan interaction is strongly encouraged, via the hashtag #BarklyStreet on Twitter.

On the first episode of the 2021 season, the boys cover off:

  • The excitement for the new season and dealing with the hype.
  • The AFL’s controversial new medical substitute rule.
  • Wood’s memories of being the ‘sub’ in the NAB Cup Grand Final in 2010.
  • An update on Easton’s injury, and Bob’s attempt to ‘humanise his hamstrings’.
  • What we can expect from the Bulldogs’ debutants this Friday night, and the impression they’ve made behind the scenes.
  • How we can improve the players’ nicknames given to ‘Scotty’ and ‘Lachie’.
  • Putting the call-out for which former players the fans want to hear from on Barkly Street in 2021.
  • Woody’s ‘flowing locks’, in contract to his older brother McLeod.
