Onside Punt

What a WEEK of NFL action to unpack! Lucky for you, Hulmy & Kad are coming off the bench to support you and your team. They've been called the Case Keenum & Marcus Mariota of podcasting. No one would ask them first, but if you had literally no other option, these boys are ready to go.

Onside Punt are here to take you through all the Week 2 action, a slate that delivered a perfect mix of upsets and injuries that are about to shake the season in ways nobody predicted. Kad and Hulmy dig into who’s starting to look like a legit contender and who’s drifting dangerously into panic‑merchant territory, breaking down the teams that rose, the ones that stumbled, and the storylines that suddenly matter a whole lot more heading into Week 3.

We also had the pleasure of being joined by comedian and keen NFL fan Nick Schuller, who brough...

The boys return from the odyssey that was the very first official NFL game live in Melbourne over the weekend. Full of joy they did their best to survive a 3am wake up call on Monday for Week 1. This week the boys look closely at each teams debut for 2026 and what this could mean for their season.

The wait is over and football is finally back. Kad and Hulmy are diving head‑first into every matchup of Week 1, breaking down the storylines, the chaos, and the early-season questions we already know are coming.

We’re getting loud about the first ever NFL game in Melbourne, the energy around Rams–Niners at the ‘G, and why this opener feels bigger than just a novelty game.

Plus: our local legend returns with Bangers and Arby stepping into the arena, the Battle of the Week, and the Lock of the Week to kick off the season p...

We are only one week away from football arriving on our shores and Hulmy and Kad are settling in. Kick your feet up, relax and get ready to welcome football in for 2026.

The conference breakdowns are locked in, the preseason chaos has been sifted through, and Kad & Hulmy are finally ready to talk about what you actually care about — the headlines, the hype, and the way‑too‑early predictions you’ll absolutely bring up later in the season when they turn out to be wildly wrong.

We’re closing in on kickoff fast, and the narratives are already forming across the AFC and NFC. Onside Punt doesn’t shy away from any of it — the bold calls that might age like milk or magic, the preseason hope fans cling to, and the in...

It's an exciting time as the NFL preseason kicks off, and Kad and Hulmy are here to break down the latest happenings before getting stuck into the preview of EVERY team in the AFC.

Alright, buckle up — it’s almost business time, and Onside Punt are taking a full lap around the NFC. Every team, every division, every storyline that’s about to matter once the pads start popping for real.

Kad and Hulmy somehow think they can get through 15 minutes per division. No fluff, no detours, no Hulmy drifting into a story about the melee he once saw at training camp. Let’s be honest: he’s hosting, so the clock is already in danger.

Across the hour, they’ll hit expectations, looming disappointments, and the teams sitting one injury a...

We are back for our fourth season. With only four episodes to go before the regular NFL season kicks off! If you're anything like us, it's been a little hard to remember who is who in the zoo, but we've caught up and ready to run you through it one episode at a time. Join us for all the wild off field and on field news as we get ready for the first official NFL game in Australia.

Where've you been?! Where have we been?! It's been a long time between pod's and Hulmy and Kad haven't caught up at all! In a special one-off episode the boys came together in the offseason to see what's been happening. From Hulmy's magic beans to Kad building a fence, it's been all consuming.

The NFL is officially coming to Melbourne and the Onside Punt team are officially going to check it out. The boys talk ticketing controversy and the hype behind the coming match.

In only a few weeks the draft kicks off and the...

The boys are looking back! Not only to the Coaching Carousel or the Conference Finals but all the way back to Week 1. Remember those (way too) early predictions? Let's see how the boys went this year. You might be surprised.

The Divisional Round is in the book, and what a chaotic mess we’ve been left with. Six has become… four. Well, maybe three and a half, given some season‑changing injuries. Fan favourites have fallen, underdogs couldn’t quite land the knockout blow, and the number‑one seeds get to stay home for the Conference Championships.

Hulmy & Kad break down every wild twist from the weekend — the haymakers, the heartbreaks, and the teams still standing, even if they’re held together with tape, hope, and a whole lot of drama.

But somehow, we still can’t stop tal...

The Wild Wild Wildcards are done and dusted, knocking six teams OUT of the running for the Superbowl this year, and this week we welcome back the number one seed, Seahawks and Broncos who join the playoffs to defend their home field advantage.

Only four games to go this weekend and Hulmy & Kad dive into to every single one, whilst looking back on the teams that have left us.

You can't forget the coaching carousel controversy at the moment, recorded before the news broke about Coach Tomlin's departure, Hulmy has his crystal ball out, more...

The postseason is here, Wild Card weekend has arrived, and Onside Punt is clocking back in. The boys are fresh off the Christmas–New Year break, the season of chaos has wrapped, and the tipping comp has crowned its champ.

But with the playoffs upon us, this isn’t a normal episode — Kad still hasn’t shown up. Should we panic? Probably not. Should you tune in to find out what he’s been up to? Absolutely.

Huge shout to Jehu for stepping into the pocket and helping launch our playoff run. Buckle up — the ride starts

Hulmy and Kad try to make sense of the return of Philip Rivers to the NFL, the current NFL playoff picture, focusing on team performances, key players like Travis Kelce, and the implications of controversial touchdown calls.

It's a good one! So settle in and stay onside.

Pittsburgh’s got a new QB in Aaron Rodgers and a defense that’s still elite with T.J. Watt. And the Browns......the Browns.... Let’s just say they’re plenty to choose from.

Mini camp is...
