Footy has been turning up the fun and excitement, each and every week since the bye and last fortnight has been no different! Join the Citizen's of The People's Game as the breakdown all the major talking points from footy and sport in general! On the agenda this week: - Why does the media take it upon themselves to judge injury management instead of just report on it? - Josh Kennedy is kicking goals on - and off - the field. - The "People's Question" tackles the topic of drugs in sport... Are Australian sports fans and sports media hypocritical in their views of "drug cheats" and is "clean sport" even neccessary? - This week's edition of "Footy Book Club" is a discussion about our very own Kasey Symons' short story 'The Real Fan' and what "real fandom" is.
