They relive the Magic Round vibes, with shoutouts to listeners spotted in Young GI merch and a classic WhatsApp voice note from C-Mac. Rage trades, Ready to Explodes, and Little Black Book picks return

Hello ballrs, Round 8 dished up one of the highest scoring SuperCoach rounds of the season. Will Magic Round produce the same windfall?

Just keep an eye out for Matt in his exclusive “ballr alert: Young GI” t-shirt (see the shirt on our social media clips this week) and tell us Gehamat Shibasaki’s ballr projection for the week (Answer in this podcast) to be a proud owner.
