<v Speaker 3>Good morning, Will, Good morning Dave. Thanks for having me on.

0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:27.400
<v Speaker 1>No, not at all.

0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:30.280
<v Speaker 4>Dan. Hey, look before we get in all the other stuff,

0:00:30.360 --> 0:00:34.040
<v Speaker 4>obviously the big story overnight as well. Just said your second,

0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:38.120
<v Speaker 4>your second nomination to the All Australian Team.

0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:39.199
<v Speaker 1>It's a huge accolade.

0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:41.559
<v Speaker 4>Mate, Well done, Yeah, thank you.

0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:45.040
<v Speaker 3>I was an absolute honest to achieve that award again.

0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:47.559
<v Speaker 3>And you know, sitting in that room again with all

0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:51.599
<v Speaker 3>those all those names, you pish yourself and yeah, it's

0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:54.520
<v Speaker 3>an absolute honest to represent the club and make that

0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:55.720
<v Speaker 3>team again this year.

0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:59.280
<v Speaker 4>Was Jason Horn Francis Stiff we Reckon.

0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:03.320
<v Speaker 3>He was, Yeah, I think you look around in the

0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:06.880
<v Speaker 3>room and you go, there's so many elite midfielders in

0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:09.360
<v Speaker 3>that room, and even the bench that was named last

0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 3>night was elite. And I said to one of the boys,

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:14.679
<v Speaker 3>I wouldn't mind rotating off for one of them. But

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:19.039
<v Speaker 3>Jas had an amazing year and I reckon. He'll have

0:01:19.600 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 3>plenty of AA squads and AA teams ahead of him,

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:25.959
<v Speaker 3>and there's always if each year, And yeah, I think

0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:27.520
<v Speaker 3>he was one of them.

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.119
<v Speaker 1>So I got to asked two saturdays ago.

0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 4>I was watching the game at home with my wife

0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:36.400
<v Speaker 4>and when the rank and hit happened, our heads exploded

0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:39.880
<v Speaker 4>and I said, who did that? And she said it

0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:44.679
<v Speaker 4>was Houston? And I went, Dan Houston, Dan Houston did that.

0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:48.520
<v Speaker 4>We've got to know you through the show, and we

0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:51.559
<v Speaker 4>know that you're a good blake. But when that happened, mate,

0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:55.160
<v Speaker 4>how do you feel about it in hindsight? Because clearly

0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:56.840
<v Speaker 4>you were really cut up about it at the time.

0:01:57.000 --> 0:01:59.000
<v Speaker 4>Can you take us into the events of the past

0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:01.040
<v Speaker 4>couple of weeks and give us a bit of an

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:04.880
<v Speaker 4>insight into how you approach talking to Isaac about it

0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 4>as well?

0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I guess you know it's in a showdown. The

0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.760
<v Speaker 3>emotions are un high at the final game, and yeah,

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:16.600
<v Speaker 3>I guess you know that's fit second of the moment.

0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:20.400
<v Speaker 3>You know I made a wrong decision and yeah it was,

0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:23.639
<v Speaker 3>but tried markedly best to play out the game as

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:25.919
<v Speaker 3>best as possible, knowing you know, there's a bit of

0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:30.120
<v Speaker 3>uncertainty and yeah, after game, obviously was very remorse towards

0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:34.239
<v Speaker 3>a bit out of my characteristic to do that, and

0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:36.840
<v Speaker 3>I reached out to Isaac and I guess it's one

0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:39.200
<v Speaker 3>of those things that happened to his life and you've

0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:43.000
<v Speaker 3>got to move on. But yeah, for me, my focus

0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:46.079
<v Speaker 3>now is fully going forward and it's one of those

0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:47.960
<v Speaker 3>things that happens, and yeah, I've just got to try

0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:48.880
<v Speaker 3>my best to move forward.

0:02:49.120 --> 0:02:50.440
<v Speaker 1>What was it like when you spoke to him.

0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 4>Was it was because I think the thing is football

0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 4>is often see these things differently and know that stuff

0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:56.880
<v Speaker 4>happens in the course of play.

0:02:57.040 --> 0:02:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Was he accepting.

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.080
<v Speaker 4>Do you feel like you guys could sort of, you know,

0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:04.440
<v Speaker 4>sit down and have a coffee or a beer without

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:05.320
<v Speaker 4>building each other.

0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:09.079
<v Speaker 3>Oh, look, there's no there's absolutely no hard feelings towards

0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:12.280
<v Speaker 3>Isaac or any of the Adelaide boys, And it's one

0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:14.040
<v Speaker 3>of those things that happened. I reached out to him

0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:17.600
<v Speaker 3>on text and yeah, I guess at the end of

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:21.679
<v Speaker 3>the day, I'd love to shaking hand and apologize and hope.

0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I hope he's all right. But you're not. You're not

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 1>still waiting from the right back. You're you're not still

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 1>waiting from the right back to your text. Are you

0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:31.320
<v Speaker 1>potentially okay?

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.720
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, those things happen in footy, and yeah it's

0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:37.800
<v Speaker 3>part of the game, and you know those things happen.

0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:40.920
<v Speaker 2>You spent you said your focus is now very much

0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 2>on the future. Where is your future?

0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Is it the Port Adelaie Football Club? Yeah?

0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, I think you know I've said in the past

0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 3>that I'm contracted and I absolutely love the footy club.

0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:56.160
<v Speaker 3>I love being in Adelaide, and yeah, I've got my

0:03:56.280 --> 0:03:59.640
<v Speaker 3>focus in particular in the next five weeks and helping

0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 3>this team push the finals and get them in the

0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.640
<v Speaker 3>best possible condition and you know, do whatever I need

0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:07.240
<v Speaker 3>to do around the club to help with that.

0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:08.560
<v Speaker 1>So you're not leaving next year.

0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:12.000
<v Speaker 3>No, I'm not leaving next year. He couldn't know me.

0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we've done a few of these before, Dan, and

0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:20.960
<v Speaker 2>it gets this time of year and you know, we

0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:26.200
<v Speaker 2>start getting plumped about it.

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 1>So you're really saying you're going to stay there?

0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:32.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I contract there. I wouldn't I wouldn't have signed

0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:35.920
<v Speaker 3>the contract if I wasn't keen on Adelaide or keen

0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:37.880
<v Speaker 3>on Port Adelaide. And you know, I love the place.

0:04:37.920 --> 0:04:39.680
<v Speaker 3>I love the footy club, and the footy club's been

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:42.599
<v Speaker 3>good to me, So yeah, I committed to Port Adelaide.

0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:46.920
<v Speaker 4>Did the circumstances of the last couple of weeks change

0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 4>anything in that sense? Like did you feel because the

0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 4>club flew the flag for you after what you did

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.000
<v Speaker 4>to rank? And has that made you feel even more

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 4>almost obliged to I.

0:04:57.560 --> 0:04:59.600
<v Speaker 3>Think it just rare firm the feelings that you have

0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 3>the Port Adelaide. They've they've always got my back. They've

0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:05.440
<v Speaker 3>always been really supportive of me and they did everything

0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:07.719
<v Speaker 3>that they could to try and help me during that period,

0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 3>whether it was you know, appealing or whether it was

0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:12.520
<v Speaker 3>just even at the club getting around me. The boys

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:14.640
<v Speaker 3>there magnificent and yeah, I can't complain at all.

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's sound like a story there, Dan. We thought

0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:20.280
<v Speaker 1>the five double a breakfast show curse was about to work.

0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:23.279
<v Speaker 4>Its magic again, but it sounds like you're staying So yeah,

0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:26.840
<v Speaker 4>all right, good, Hey, thanks for fronting up too, Dan,

0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:29.360
<v Speaker 4>because you know, before we let you go of you,

0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:31.360
<v Speaker 4>I know you've been in Melbourne a couple of times,

0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 4>you went there with your family and this week obviously

0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 4>for the All Australian. Has it changed your interactions with

0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:41.400
<v Speaker 4>the public, if you had anyone getting you know, under

0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 4>your grill when you're down the local supermarket or anything

0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:44.240
<v Speaker 4>like that.

0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:48.160
<v Speaker 3>No, not really. I think you know, there's a lot

0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:50.359
<v Speaker 3>of I've had a few Adelaide supporters come up to

0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:53.560
<v Speaker 3>me and just you know, not not not say anything bad,

0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:56.200
<v Speaker 3>but just you know, so I was unlucky and wishing

0:05:56.200 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 3>me the best, which has been really supportive. And then

0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:01.920
<v Speaker 3>I've had poor supporters who have always had my back

0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:04.599
<v Speaker 3>and you know, I'm very grateful for that and I'm

0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 3>glad that people understand, you know, my situation has been

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:11.160
<v Speaker 3>out of character and you know that they're supportive and
