The voice of touch football, in our opinion along with many others, joins us for a very entertaining chat. Scotty MacAllister chats all things touch footy from his side of the microphone and gives us some of his predictions for the Metro Cup and QLD State Cup finals. The games prove to be a fun challenge for both competitors and in discussing food and other things, Scotty shares some controversial views on a wide range of topics which are sure to bring him some stick from touch footy fans.

Highly accomplished touch footy referees Luke Heckendorf and Luke Saldern join us to talk all things from behind the whistle. From officiating and sometimes sending off family members, handling some of the most challenging players, to being dealt some great sledges. The boys shed a light on why and how they became referees and explain the pathways and opportunities it offers. The boys pair up to partake in the usual fun and games. Not surprisingly managing to duck and weave difficult questions throughout the episode and staying very neutral like good referees should.
