AFL & NRL Podcasts: The Australian Footy Podcast Directory

Footy and podcasts go together like a meat pie and the three-quarter-time siren. Whether you barrack in the AFL or the NRL, there is a show out there breaking down every bounce, bomb and bust-up — and there are a lot of them. So our team went and rounded up the biggest and best Australian footy podcasts going around: the official league and club shows, the major media-network programs, and the independent and fan-made pods that punch well above their weight.

Below is our running directory of Australian Rules (AFL) and rugby league (NRL) podcasts, grouped by code and by type. We are not affiliated with any of these shows — we just reckon they are worth a listen. Spotted a good one we have missed? Let us know via our contact page.

71 podcasts and counting — 43 AFL and 28 NRL.
