Rival radio stars Andy Lee and Jack Post clash during 2025 AFL Round 13 at Melbourne Cricket Ground
The duo, who are rivals when it comes to the footy, exchanged some friendly back and forth banter on Sunday at Melbourne Cricket Ground as they introduced the much-anticipated game.
Aussie comedian Andy, 43, who supports the Carlton Blues, wore a blue v-neck sweater over a white tee and some jeans, paired with a Blues scarf repping his team, and a logo-emblazoned cap.
Media personality Jack, 37, who cheers on Essendon Bombers, opted for an oversized red and black hoodie over a pair of jeans.
'We are actually doing the pre-game,' Andy said in a video posted to Instagram before the showdown.

'It's going to be a little bit like Katy Perry,' he joked.
Despite the Carlton Blues claiming victory, both Andy and Jack wore huge smiles throughout the night as they enjoyed the neck-in-neck game.
Andy was spotted jetting into Melbourne on Saturday after a stint in New York, where Hollywood heavyweight Hugh Jackman weighed in on Andy's new business venture: an Aussie pub in the Big Apple.
Andy opened his Australian-themed pub Old Mates in Manhattan, back in February.
And last Tuesday, the Wolverine star, 56, took to social media to gush over the establishment which is backed by an owner's group that includes Hamish Blake, surfing legend Mick Fanning, as well as Hugh himself.
'Old Mates - how Aussie's eat in NYC. This pub is amazing!' Hugh posted on Instagram.
He also shared a gallery of snaps including one which shows the fan favourite flashing his famous grin and posing in front of the venue with his arm around Andy.
Hugh also shared a photo taken inside the bar with Andy and Australian-born NYC restaurateur Eddy Buckingham, who is also an investor in Old Mates.
A third post shared to Hugh's account showed a stained glass window feature of the bar which spelled out 'New York'.
Located in Downtown Manhattan's Financial District, the pub is in a heritage-listed 1840s Greek Revival building that spans all three floors.
With the staff dressed in iconic, hard-yakka-inspired blue collared shirts and rugby polos, the pub wouldn't look out of place in The Rocks or at the end of Collins Street.
The investors also include Andy Stone (Bluestone Lane), Pat Cummins, Ash Barty, Mick Fanning and Patty Mills.

TV star reveals brutal fan mail after showcasing 'awful' new look
ABC News Breakfast weatherman Nate Byrne proudly unveiled his new haircut on-air earlier this month - but it seems not everyone is a fan. Nate received a tersely worded typewritten letter from a 'disappointed fan' who brutally slammed his fresh style as 'awful'. Taking to his Facebook on Tuesday, Nate shared a screenshot of the letter, which was dated 13 August. Titled 'Haircut', the fan wrote, 'Whilst I respect your right to have your hair styled as you wish, I am exercising my right to tell you that it looks juvenile and awful. 'I'll return to ABC Breakfast once it grows out. Signed - name redacted - (disappointed viewer).' Nate didn't seem to take the criticism to heart though, captioning his post, 'Proof that the art of letter-writing isn't dead!' 'Anyone have suggestions for my next do?' he also joked. Nate's new style, which appears to be a cut known as the 'Faux Hawk', features long hair on top and closely shaved hair on the sides. Facebook users responded to Nate's post by defending the weatherman's look. 'Dear Disappointed Viewer, your opinion is important, just not to anyone here. Yours sincerely, 68-year-old bald guy,' commented one fan. 'Amazing how your hairdo does not affect your ability to provide accurate, incisive and entertaining weather forecasts and excellent science information,' added another viewer. A third fan added: 'I don't like it either, but I'll defend to the death for you to look as you wish!! 'And who cares what I think about your hair anyway, ffs?!! (I'm just trying to figure out how you are so endlessly frickin' cheerful when you have to get up at sparrow's fart five days a week!)' Nate made headlines last year when he was forced to halt his report in the middle of a broadcast after suffering a panic attack live on-air. He cut short his presentation during a broadcast last August just before 6.30am, telling viewers 'I'm going to need to stop for a second'. Voice quivering, he told viewers: 'Some of you may know that I occasionally get affected by some panic attacks, and actually that's happening right now. 'Lisa (Millar), maybe I could hand back to you.' Co-host Lisa quickly took over the broadcast while Nate recovered off camera. Nate has spoken openly about his struggles with anxiety - publishing an article in 2022 where he documented his experiences of on-air panic attacks. The weather presenter was later welcomed back to the show and apologised for stepping out. 'Sorry if I gave anybody a bit of a scare,' he said.

'That's not a knife': Sword-wielding man's Crocodile Dundee threat to neighbour
A man has appeared in court after he quoted from the comedy Crocodile Dundee while threatening someone with a sword. Darren Morrison's neighbour had brandished a kitchen knife at him following an altercation over noise, so he responded by fetching a replica sword from his own home. He then brandished the claymore-style weapon at the woman – itself a replica from 1986's sci-fi film Highlander – and quoted from the Paul Hogan hit, telling her: 'That's not a knife…' Morrison, 51, appeared at Tain Sheriff Court to admit a single charge of threatening behaviour in relation to the incident on July 3 of this year. Fiscal depute Adelle Gray told the court that, at around 9.30pm on that date, Morrison and his wife had been trying to put their grandchildren to bed at an address in Westford, Alness. His neighbour was 'playing her music loud' and when asked to turn it down in a Facebook message, she responded by telling them to 'f*** off'. An altercation between those at the house and the neighbour followed, during which the woman slammed doors while holding a speaker. She then grabbed a purple-handed bread knife and began to wave it, shouting: 'I'll take you all – come on then.' Morrison's wife shouted: 'She has got a knife,' prompting him to go inside his own house and grab a replica sword, which was mounted on the wall. He then returned to the garden and stated, 'That's not a knife…' brandishing the sword in her direction. Solicitor Patrick O'Dea, for Morrison, told Sheriff Mark Lindsay, that his client had been referencing Crocodile Dundee with his comment and had 'not been trying to terrify' the woman in question. Following this revelation, the sheriff questioned whether the scene appeared in the original film or its 1988 sequel, noting 'It's where he is in New York.' The famous scene appears in the first film, not the Australia-based sequel. Mr O'Dea told the court that Morrison – a 'genuine first offender' – was simply 'trying to make a ridiculous situation more ridiculous'. He said: 'He bitterly regrets reacting to the complainer's bread knife – he now reflects on it as ridiculous.' Mr O'Dea explained to the court that the 'huge weapon' wielded by his client was a replica of a prop from the 1986 Highlander movie and was not a real sword. Hearing this, Sheriff Lindsay ordered the forfeiture of the replica sword and deferred sentence on Morrison for three months to allow him to demonstrate good behaviour.
