Summary
The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker assemble for another Adjudication Panel. On the agenda: a novel new word for a near-post flick-on, examining football's classy new fad of crest-respecting, the most Australian co-commentator of all time, and a bumper instalment of Keys & Gray Corner.
Meanwhile, the panel discuss which manager was the first to earn themselves the "Surname-ball" honour, what makes a player an "old warhorse" and what exactly constitute "the basics" in football.
