Before the Game

Before the Game
Last week the Before the Game team looked at the sell-out clash at Skilled Stadium between the top of the table Geelong and the second placed Western Bulldogs.    The team finding out just which team the visiting pontiff is giving the papal seal of approval.   And check out just how excited Brisbane Lions coach Leigh Matthews was about one of the most anticipated clashes of the season so far.   Plus, the boys take a look at the results from Cameron Ling’s facial surgery that sees the Geelong star come out from under the knife looking very “Hollywood”.   Sydney Swans coach Paul Roos joined the Before the Gamers in the studio to talk about the Swans season this year ahead of their clash with Carlton.   Watch to find out why the team present Paul Roos with a DVD copy of the Wedding Singer.    The Tigers Matthew Richardson dropped in after Richmond’s thrilling win over Essendon. The Tiger star revealing what it's like to be such a favourite down at Punt Road. Even Before the Games’ Mick Molloy gets accused of pestering the star forward.
