Australian football's favourite competition has returned! Host Christian Marchetti is joined by FPF contributor Jose Campo to run the rule over the first two nights of the 2025 Australia Cup Final Rounds!

To start, Western Sydney Wanderers fan Jose gives his very early thoughts on Alen Stajcic's side following their 3-0 win over Peninsula Power and Christian ignites a discussion about what benefit there is to Northern Territory clubs having a guaranteed spot in the Round of 32 (1:54).

Later on, Adelaide-based Christian gives his takes on Cooks Hill United's win over Adelaide Croatia Raiders (26:29) before Jose reviews Northern Tigers-Sydney United and a few goalkeepers are (somewhat harshly) placed under the microscope (44:40).

The Front Page Football Podcast is back!!

On this special edition, host Christian Marchetti interviews Young Socceroo and Perth Glory midfielder Jaylan Pearman!

To start the interview, Pearman discusses what it was like to be apart of a historic triumph for the Young Socceroos at the U20 Asian Cup, reflecting on the significance of the achievement, his goal against Japan in the Semi-Final, and sharing the moment with fellow Western Australian product Daniel Bennie.

Pearman also addresses the comparisons made between his game and former Socceroos midfielder Tom Rogic before ending with an insight into how things are going at Perth Glory, including comments about Adam Taggart's leadership and what the January signings have brought to the squad.

Stay tuned for more special, shortened (hopefully) editions of the podcast!

Join host Christian Marchetti and FPF contributors Cody Ojeda and Jack Twohill as they discuss all the latest talking points from another weekend of games in the A-League Men!

To start the pod, the boys review a thrilling Sydney Derby, where Sydney FC and the Wanderers drew 3-3 in what was arguably the game of the season so far. They discuss Western Sydney's inability to see out the game, the impact of Sydney FC's subs, Zac Sapsford's excellent performance, and the similar issues both sides are having at the moment (2:16).

They then move onto the Newcastle Jets, who cruised past Melbourne Victory with another improved performance on Saturday. The panel considers whether Rob Stanton's side are starting to turn a corner, discussing Noah James' excellent display, and the impact of a new system and new signings like Kota Mizunuma (30:52).

Later on, they talk about Melbourne City, who have now lost three straight games. Christian points out a concerning trend in City's recent performances while also considering whether the club's horrid injury luck might be finally catching up to them (52:04).

The pod will continue every week for the remainder of the season!

Join host Christian Marchetti and FPF contributor Jose Campo as they discuss all the latest talking points from another weekend of games in the A-League Men!

To start the pod, the boys talk about the discourse surrounding Alen Stajcic and the Wanderers, considering whether the club's fanbase have been right to expect more from their new head coach. Christian and Jose reflect on the positives of the Stajcic era thus far while also considering what might hold back the Wanderers from being a top six side this season (3:27).

They then move onto Perth Glory, who lost to Melbourne Victory despite another improved performance. The boys discuss how the Glory are a much better side now than what they were during the opening rounds and consider what the remainder of the season could look like for David Zdrilic's side (21:27).

Later on, they talk about the rising number of young talents leaving the competition this transfer window, with Christian providing an in-depth explanation of one of the more under-discussed parts of the player development discussion that constantly surrounds the league, and why it could be a huge positive (35:14).

The pod will continue every week for the remainder of the season!

Join host Christian Marchetti and FPF contributors Matt Olsen and Jack Twohill as they discuss all the latest talking points from another weekend of games in the A-League Men!

To start the pod, the boys talk Melbourne Victory's dire form under interim coach Arthur Diles after their winless streak extended to six games with defeat in the Original Rivalry. They assess the performances under Diles and whether the club's upper management need to address the coaching situation (3:27).

They then move onto Sydney FC after they suffered a shocking loss at home to Brisbane. With Ufuk Talay coming under increased scrutiny from fans, the boys discuss the playing style he's trying to implement and some questionable team selection, along with the team's need for defensive reinforcements (21:24).
