Jeff and Zac return with a huge Saturday morning edition of the Jeff & Zac Sports Show, broadcasting live from Podcast City Radio Business & Lifestyle Network Studio.

They’re joined by special guest Chris Burgess, whose football journey spans West Adelaide, the Gold Coast Suns, and the Adelaide Crows. Chris reflects on his early days at Westies, the jump to AFL intensity, the mentors who shaped him, and what life was really like at the Suns before the club’s recent rise under coach Damien Hardwick.

Chris also opens up about the challenges of breaking into Adelaide’s key forward setup, competing with the likes of Taylor Walker, Phil Thorpe and Fogarty. He speaks candidly about missing opportunities, conversations with Matthew Nicks, the reality of being delisted, and the emotional decision to step back from SANFL football. In a heartfelt moment, he reveals why he’s returning to country footy in the Yorke Peninsula — to reconnect with the joy of the game and finally play alongside one of his best mates.

Later in the episode, the boys speak with James Fantasia, one of South Australia’s most respected football leaders. James shares what he’s been up to since stepping away from Norwood, his thoughts on the Redlegs’ 2025 season, and why the club is perfectly positioned for a big year in 2026. He gives a detailed breakdown of new recruits, coaching changes, and standout young players like Toby Callow who are set to shine.

Jeff and Zac close the show with updates on the Matildas, Sam Kerr’s fitness concerns, Adelaide United’s coaching changes, the NBL’s Adelaide 36ers' impressive resurgence, and the latest cricket news, including future Test cricket fixtures at Adelaide Oval.

The Jeff & Zac Sport Show brings a high-energy deep dive into everything happening in South Australian sport. Jeff and Zac open with Adelaide United’s thrilling 4–1 win over Melbourne City, breaking down key performers, tactical shifts, and what the result means for the Reds’ season going forward. With four different goal scorers and a defensive masterclass despite limited possession, the performance sparks plenty of optimism among fans.

The boys also dissect a big week in SANFL, with West Adelaide undergoing major redevelopment both on and off the field. Special guest Jonti Schback joins the show to discuss the club’s preseason standards under new coach Nathan Bassett, the rise of emerging young players, and the cultural shift being built around accountability, development, and long-term success. He talks openly about injuries, personal goals, and the hunger within Westies to climb the ladder in 2026.

The second guest of the morning, Joe Puntureri from Gaucho’s, delivers a passionate breakdown of the Adelaide 36ers’ dramatic turnaround, highlighting big names like Bryce Cotton, Humphries, and DJ Cameron. Joe also speaks candidly about the NBL’s growing appeal, rising attendance, team culture, and the importance of stable ownership in reviving the club’s fortunes.

Jeff and Zac finish the episode with a full cricket analysis, recapping an extraordinary day in the Australia vs England Test match — including 19 wickets falling, standout bowling performances, and the challenges facing both sides. As always, the episode wraps with humour, insight, and the trademark passion that makes this South Australia’s favourite weekly sports show.

In this action-packed episode of the Jeff & Zac Sports Show, the boys return after a short break — and they’re broadcasting live from Gauchos Restaurant, home of the best steaks in Adelaide. With guest Joey from Gauchos joining the panel, the show kicks off with a full breakdown of the AFL Grand Final. Brisbane’s commanding second half, the Lockie Neale substitution masterstroke, and Geelong’s inability to fire in September take centre stage as the panel pull apart every big moment.

The conversation quickly moves into club-by-club analysis, starting with questions around Geelong’s finals identity and the future of coach Chris Scott. With Brisbane now the most successful club of the century, Jeff, Zac and Joey explore what makes the Lions unstoppable — from list management to coaching stability, player development, and their new generation of talent.

Trade Week gets the full treatment as well, including the Christian Petracca to Gold Coast saga, Adelaide’s midfield puzzle, Port Adelaide’s rebuild under Josh Carr, and Clayton Oliver’s dramatic departure to GWS. The boys don’t hold back as they discuss big personalities, big clubs, and even bigger question marks heading into 2026.

Finally, the episode wraps up with rookie draft predictions, coaching movements, club culture challenges, and a look ahead to what’s next for Collingwood, Melbourne, Hawthorn, Essendon, Port Adelaide and more. It’s fast, it’s fun, it’s opinionated — everything footy fans love from Jeff and Zac.
