Hellas & Heidelberg Into Dockerty Cup Final | Catch-Up Round Chaos at Somers Street

It's an Espresso Edition (by our standards) of the pod this week and Josh, Nick & Ivka dive into the Dockerty Cup semi finals and catch-up round games.

With a 3-1 upset win over Avondale, South Melbourne are officially 'Box Office' again. How has Sinisa Cohadzic transformed the playing style in the space of a few months? Meanwhile, a strange Avondale XI has the pod scratching our heads. 

Over at Olympic Village, Heidelberg put a beatdown on helpless VPL2 opposition, as Nunawading's magical run comes to a close.

Elsewhere, Knights and Oakleigh play out a six-goal thriller that went right to the wire, and Josh was in attendance at CB Smith to make sure the lights stayed on for Brunswick Juventus v Werribee City.

Plus, all our predictions for Round 22, as the title race and the battle for the top six heat up, and it's crunch time for the sides still marooned in the bottom three.
