For one week only, former skipper Easton Wood makes way for current captain Marcus Bontempelli to step into the Barkly Street podcasting co-hosting chair this week, on the eve of his 150th game.

‘Bont’ reunites with his former co-host Bob Murphy for a special ‘Bontempelli Street’ edition of the Club’s official podcast.

It’s a fascinating, in-depth chat with the Dogs’ superstar which covers these topics, and more:

  • Bont’s 150 – what does it mean to him?
  • Bont’s journey, starting with ‘free boots and tracksuits’ in 2014.
  • Growing into his leadership role.
  • Embracing big moments in games.
  • Shrugging off his goalkicking ‘knockers’ in that crucial match-winning moment against West Coast in Round 2.
  • The Bulldogs’ strong start to the season, and playing at a packed Mars Stadium.
  • Should the outer hill at Mars Stadium have a name?
  • An update on Mya the kelpie.
  • The challenge of taking on the Gold Coast Suns.

Before he returns to preparing for this week’s game, Bont has time to quiz Bob on his return to the football field this weekend, when he’ll strap on the boots with good mate Jarryd Roughead for Inverloch-Kongwak.
