Arguing the toss over the big issues in sport off the field of play, For and Against takes sport seriously....sometimes! David Gill, Simon Johnson, Stephen Reilly and Paul Roach rip apart the controversies in sport and take a look under the bonnet to see what makes the sports 'industry' tick. From the commercial to the philosophical, from the sublime to the ridiculous, For and Against is your deep dive into how and why sport matters.
I know what you’re thinking. If For & Against can take a week off between episodes, then surely it’s okay for the AFL Finalists to do the same…well, think again! Because the team have something to say it. About that and about Sydney derby TV timeslots, the Carlton-Coach-turned-Coffee-Carrying-Superhero and when a Rugby League Immortal truly becomes immortal. And that’s all before Red Card Yellow Card brings us home with the class or lack thereof you’ve become accustomed to! No byes for us - enjoy the show!

Episode 139 – It’s Not Sport But We Like It – Special Edition
Every now and then, there’s something in the quasi-not-quite-sporting world that catches For & Against’s eye. So imagine our delight when a string of It’s Not Sport But We Like It stories emerged at once in our post-Olympics haze! There was only one solutions – a show dedicated to the passionate, competitive, skilful and oh-so-sporting-in-their-own-way worlds of Hobby Horsing, Snail Racing, Speed Jigsaw Puzzling and Sydney Swan Fan Mingling…oh dear, what could possibly go wrong? If that’s all too much, fear not as a more traditional overflow of Olympic off-field behaviour finds its way into Red Card Yellow Card!
