We've all been stuck in a COVID-inspired lockdown and now that we're out (sort of) we can't even go to the footy, freeze and have a refreshing cold beverage.

The only thing we do have to look forward to is gossip - and veteran scribes Andrew Thomson and Tim Auld have a bit to keep us all going.

If you thought it was cold and wet this week - we've got some great news. There's more of the same next week.

Warrnambool footballers have had a tough season and after this weekend have a couple of home games at The Pond heading towards the end of the season.

There's chat about a very unusual accident, footy coaches, umpires taking a pay trim and player eligibility for finals.

Sit back, have a listen and enjoy.
