1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: The memories flow on a historic night at the Australian 2 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: Football Hall of Fame ceremony and we have our very 3 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,720 Speaker 1: own inductee here at the desk. 4 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 2: Look who's back. The rapid return of Sam Darcy as 5 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 2: the Bulldogs look to get going and mount this second 6 00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:17,639 Speaker 2: half challenge. 7 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 1: And the art of coaching in the moments of high 8 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 1: tension when as a firm hound required and when do 9 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: you step back? 10 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 3: We'll ask Sino and horse.

They're 14 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: on the side of Courtia with the brain, take the 15 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 1: man on.

Yep, we did, we did. 33 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 2: I sort of wandered out very late. Hodge and crew 34 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 2: still in tow and Revolt and Crewe Brown just lording 35 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 2: over everyone. Jonathan and Fox boys were well represented and 36 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 2: my boys were just right slap bang amongst them. It 37 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 2: was a great night and you did a wonderful job too, Jared. 38 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: I can't imagine now how much work you've done preparing 39 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 2: for that. 40 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: So there are a lot of unanswered questions as a 41 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: turn out. I thought most of them would be Peter dally, 42 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: But yes. 43 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 3: Just on the down low, right, did you drop a sneaky. 44 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: I was last on, as you well know, and it 45 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 2: was a long way because you're a bit nervous, and 46 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: then I got up and almost forgot that it was 47 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 2: a televis I pulled. 48 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 3: Very nice all right. 49 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: Well, as we get into it tonight, we're not going 50 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: to rush. There's plenty of football to deal with and 51 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: we will soon enough, but we thought we might just 52 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: start with a little bit of reminiscing from a night 53 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: a reminiscing. 54 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 3: All I ever wanted to do was be a footy paper. 55 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 3: That's it. 56 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 5: That's really simple. 57 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 2: That's all I wanted in life was to be a 58 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 2: footy paper. Pretty simple and complicated. From the moment I 59 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: could go. 60 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 4: Fac to get drafted. 61 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 6: You just want to play a game and then to 62 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 6: go through and be able to achieve what we did 63 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 6: as a group. You sort of sit back and pinch 64 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 6: yourself because you did it start a night. What Nick 65 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 6: said before is when you read it all those names, 66 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 6: you sort of you do you pinch yourself to sort 67 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 6: of sit and realize you're in the same group as them, 68 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 6: which is surreal. 69 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 5: I don't imagine how hard it would have been to 70 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 5: tell your thirteen year old daughter that she couldn't play 71 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 5: the game that she loves anymore, and twenty seven years 72 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 5: later she's standing next to you in the Hall of Fame. 73 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 7: It's just. 74 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 4: I had no ambition to come to Victoria at all. 75 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 4: I was just house Australian and I was very happy 76 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 4: in the cup that I was with, but also my 77 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 4: lifestyle wouldn't have worked in Victoria. 78 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 7: And rather than feeling like you know, I walked away 79 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 7: with the game still owing me something, I walked away 80 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 7: feeling like the game gave me absolutely everything. And I'm 81 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 7: just feeling with so much attitude for the game and 82 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 7: for the people involved in it. 83 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: How perfect an ending to the story was. 84 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 8: It controversy to say this, but as a mother it's controversial, 85 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 8: but it was the best day of my life. 86 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 2: Nirive Old and Luke Aji I was picking a team 87 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 2: to play for my life, they'd be amongst the first 88 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 2: two I'd pick, no question about that. So to be 89 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 2: inducted on the same night he is unbelievable. I'll tell 90 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 2: you what. I'd be very happy to play with Daisy 91 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 2: Pears and Aaron Phillips as well. So and I'd happy 92 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 2: to go on a footy troop. Peter Darley own that 93 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 2: it was the most perfect line of all and. 94 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: Gaz that that group you're bonded with those forever more 95 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: and what a. 96 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: Group they are. 97 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so cool. 98 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 8: OK. 99 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: I know you can get a bit of SYRAPHI and 100 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 2: all this, but it's just so humbling, Like it was 101 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: in a room full of megastars, and they all sort 102 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 2: of defer to you to make sure you get a 103 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 2: night to remember, which they will have been through at 104 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 2: some stage. So yeah, I feel I had a great 105 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: I have had a great close affinity with Nick for 106 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 2: a long time obviously, and over the Melbourne days I 107 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: was a Hawthorne man, so Luke Codge is everything you 108 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 2: want to be in a footballer. And the connection with 109 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 2: Aaron Phillips and her dad Greg, who I alluded to 110 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 2: I played on in my first year, so it just 111 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 2: came full circle. 112 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 3: So awesome. 113 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 2: Just it's just so cool, and I love watching all 114 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 2: the families that come with Nick had at Big Crew 115 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 2: and his family were Aaron Errands and Daisies and everyone else's. 116 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 2: So it was just I knew it would be a 117 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 2: big night, in a great night. It was exceeded expectations. 118 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: So from the moment that the chairman gives you the call, 119 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: which is totally unexpected, over the twenty six years and 120 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: then the way and then to the night itself is 121 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, when you're reflecting years to come, how 122 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: will you reflect on this in the course of your career. 123 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 2: So I think individually it's as. 124 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 3: High as you get. 125 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 2: You had to have your Nikki there with me and 126 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,239 Speaker 2: my boys and everyone else, and my mom and dad 127 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 2: and people. 128 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 3: I love. 129 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 2: It's I only think the Premiership can only be the 130 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 2: thing that tops it. I would imagine individually your brown 131 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: Law metal of course, But so yeah, this will go 132 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: down as one of those nights I remember forever in 133 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 2: a day. And you know we were up at breakfast 134 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 2: this morning. He was sore heads and reflecting and telling 135 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 2: war stories from the night before that they're the best moments. 136 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 2: Jared and the boys have got their cameras out, and 137 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: you know that Thomas my Son's going dipp I love me, 138 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 2: Dipper wouldn't leave me alone. And then Lee Matthews is 139 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 2: sitting there having a chat like us. I just love 140 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 2: seeing all that. 141 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: You've always been super careful not to talk about your 142 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: career very much, just to snippet you. 143 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 3: Had nothing tonight. I do understand that. 144 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: But if we played these highlights, and I did like. 145 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 3: The cinema as the boys thought, it was only ever 146 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 3: on a stretcher, which is not true. But it does 147 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 3: it give you, does it put you back? 148 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: The thing you said that most struck me was this 149 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: made you feel like a player again, That is true. 150 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 2: I'd imagine, as you said, that's twenty six years since 151 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,679 Speaker 2: I finished playing. So life moves on, and I've immersed 152 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 2: myself in this career now for the best part of it. 153 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 2: Been really lucky to stay intimately involved. And this is 154 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 2: an intimate job that we have. We're at the footy 155 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: every week and we're dealing with players and coaches. So 156 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: from that point of view, I'm scratching the hitch. But 157 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 2: footy had been left well well behind. But as I 158 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: was sort of sitting down writing a few things, and 159 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: it did occur to me that I just felt it 160 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: took me back to being a footy player, because you 161 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 2: have to go back to you. I know you're going 162 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 2: to ask me questions about it. So I honestly don't 163 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 2: reminisce or re live in the past too often, but 164 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: for no other reason than that, I don't. But I did, 165 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 2: and I think that's the beauty of the night. And 166 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: a few of the players came up and said the 167 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 2: same thing. And I've got a beautiful message from Bucks 168 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 2: today who said he loved that because you know, had 169 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 2: had I that come around a year or two after 170 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 2: I'd just retired, it would be a whole different perspective. 171 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 2: But my perspective now is it's a beautiful part of 172 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 2: my life and it's a great, big. 173 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 3: But it's not the only part. 174 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 2: And but as on this night, for ever more, for 175 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 2: as long as I can walk, I'll be going along 176 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 2: there and putting my footy shore it's on over the 177 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 2: under my dinner suit and being a footy player again 178 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: for one day a year. And I think that's that's 179 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 2: almost the best part about all of it. 180 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 3: Indulge me one more. You've indulged me a lot. 181 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: I know the question I didn't get to last night 182 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: as a follow up because time was a essence. What 183 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: was the first coaching job that you were offered? 184 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: Well, I wasn't offered, but I went to Adelaide and 185 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 2: spent a day over there with the club about it. 186 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 2: I don't know, three or four weeks after I retired. 187 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 2: So Ross Dellen was a cab He was a board 188 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: member from Coban originally, and I went over and had 189 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 2: a day at the club and went out for dinner 190 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: with them and just great people, really great people, and 191 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 2: enjoyed it. Did a little bit of work on that list. 192 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 2: But I wasn't really a coach here. I think they're 193 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 2: interested to pursure it, but I wasn't. I was only 194 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 2: thirty one or so, so I came back home to Melbourne. 195 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 2: But I enjoyed that whole process. And you know, I 196 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 2: read John Reid's a terrific fella, so I love going 197 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 2: over there and having a chat with a crow. So 198 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 2: that kind of was the first experience of it all, 199 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 2: but it wasn't from my end, wasn't close happening. 200 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: And then Melbourne and Richmond at various times had a 201 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: little nibble as well. 202 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a bit further down the track. And 203 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 2: you know, I think those if I wanted to pursue that, 204 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 2: that was pretty real. But I'm happy to have done 205 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 2: what I've done. Not brave enough. Always say that when 206 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 2: people talk about it, what in your coach? Well, I 207 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 2: wasn't brave enough. That's why I've got unbelievable admiration for 208 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 2: all those that jumped in feet first, because it's you know, 209 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 2: it's NonStop and the twenty four hour day, all that 210 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 2: stuff is. I like to do this, but I like 211 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 2: to go home and shut the door. 212 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 3: So I'm so thrilled for you. 213 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: I appreciate it. 214 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,599 Speaker 3: I really congratulations. 215 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: All right, the rest of our show, so someone Horsey 216 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: and to join us shortly. We've got the teams for 217 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: some killer and the bulldogs. Shall we explore a bit 218 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: of farming? Was another great. 219 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 3: Passion, Yes, a great passion. I might get. 220 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: Exposed here today hangers Clark and Mason Redmond, that country life. 221 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 2: He's a real farmer jar. 222 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 3: He might expose him. But there's a good cause behind all. 223 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, And then after us, first they'll take the 224 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: look into the events of rounds. 225 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 3: What are we up to? Fourteen? 226 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 2: I'll be watching Joey Montagne's performance tonight very very closely, 227 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 2: jered he was having a first crack and. 228 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: A last crack, very nice, all right, d Day who 229 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: was a d Day four thanks to Ossie Broadbound. 230 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: Well, I went to the Port Adelaide Melbourne clash and 231 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 2: I'll have a look at this and I reckon the 232 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 2: loser of this game is going to find it really 233 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 2: hard to be absolutely contending at the end. So put 234 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 2: Adelaide found a bit of form and had a win 235 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: on the weekend, the Demons desperately short against the ladder leader. 236 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 2: It's over in Adelaide on then Dunghill both of these 237 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 2: sides would expect to win this game, Jared, I think 238 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 2: that would be. 239 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 3: Fair to say. 240 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: And the loser is a long way back, So Jason 241 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: Haunt Francis looks like he's moving pretty well. Is he 242 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 2: expected to be back? That's a big shot in the 243 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 2: arm for them for years. 244 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 3: And the short turnaround for Melbourne. 245 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: So when we left Monday night, there are two different parts. 246 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: Is Collinwood are heading to their bye after laying it 247 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 1: all out there Melbourne, I've got to travel on a 248 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: six day before they get to them. 249 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 2: That is true. So, but Adelaide would even more fancy themselves, 250 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 2: I would imagine so. And then you've got to get 251 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: over the heartache off at one point loss and they've 252 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 2: been the news of it, the captain and they're full back. 253 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 2: So I think that's D day for me. 254 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 3: What about you? 255 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: I've started obsessing over Friday night. I can't decide is 256 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: it Hawthorne or is it Adelaide. So this is so 257 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: perfectly poised the classic eight point game because it's the 258 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: four you get before you deny the others. How much 259 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 1: of what Hawthorne did against the Dogs put things right, 260 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 1: the re establishment of the pressure game and the return 261 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: to form. 262 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 3: For some players, it is third versus six. 263 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: They're one game behind Adelaide if they if they get beaten, 264 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: there's suddenly eight points behind in the race for the 265 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: top four. If they win, then they draw alongside Adelaide. 266 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: So how big a step did the Crows take because 267 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: of the bizarre nature of the last fifteen minutes is 268 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: should they win? Well, they did win, so that plants 269 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: that does it establish them as a top fourteen? 270 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 3: They get to test their credentials. 271 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: Add into that, the last two times in Loncester and 272 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: these teams have met, they've been three point results either way, 273 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: So they've played a pair of thrillers and I imagine 274 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: Friday night will be pretty much the same. 275 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: That's interesting, and the top eight credentials have been questioned. 276 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 2: Both these teams are one and four against top eight 277 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 2: teams going into last week. They both got a scalp 278 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: impressively or not. So they're two and four and they're 279 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: up against each other again. So no, that'll be a beauty. 280 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 3: So that's Friday night. 281 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: Let's start our agenda at Thursday night, And really, Sam 282 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: Darcy is the story here. It's the second time the 283 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: Bulldogs and the Saints have played. He got injured in 284 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 1: the first one on Easter Sunday night, and he'll be 285 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: back for the second one, which just tells you how 286 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: rapidly this has come to hand. All Darcy's heard he's 287 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: grabbing at his left knee. 288 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 2: Oh, he was in a real pain, Jared, real pain. 289 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 6: I think the game will suffered great loss for this 290 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 6: afternoon or this evening when Sam went down. I mean, 291 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 6: he's the biggest, brightest, shining star we've got right now 292 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 6: in the competition. 293 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, it seems ready to go. He'll be in the 294 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 3: team when it's announced this afternoon. Now he's trying to 295 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 3: hide that he's a cub and he might be the 296 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 3: next big thing. 297 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 2: He's done a really scrupulous and professional job on rehabilitation 298 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 2: from that injury, and so we were welcome him back 299 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 2: and look forward to having him part of tomorrow. 300 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: Right, good choice on the DJs guest who's back? Sandarsis back? 301 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: So round six it happenings back for round fourteen. It 302 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: means he only missed six games. We lived through this 303 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: in real time where it looked for all the world 304 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: and he'd been told for all the world it was 305 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: a knee reconstruction and we're going to see him this weekend. 306 00:13:59,320 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 3: We're with a chair. 307 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 2: This is a Seculta thinking we'll see him and see. 308 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 2: They would have thought, don't have to deal with him 309 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 2: unless we get the finals, and here we are. 310 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 3: Six weeks later. 311 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 2: I do you know, we said before I show and 312 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 2: reminisced about that night and everyone everyone thought he'd done, 313 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: even down to the I think the Western Bulldogs, Medicos, 314 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: certainly Luke and the family that we had those pitchers 315 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 2: of them in the rooms. And then I went out 316 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 2: a half time actually to do an interview and bumped 317 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: into him and he had this resigned look on his face. 318 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 2: So it is so uplifting that his back, and it's 319 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 2: so important that he's back because they can't afford to 320 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 2: misstep against this se Kulta side. 321 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 3: Tomorrow night. 322 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: You just saw McCrae back for Seculta. So he had 323 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: the punctured lung in the game in Perth, and Soccer 324 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: hasn't played since round nine against Carlton. Philippo's out there, 325 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: so Darcy and Heinz has played the three games in 326 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: his career in the middle phases of what we've seen 327 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: so far and Harms is injured and Gardener just wasn't 328 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: quite ready for it. 329 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 3: So that game goes. 330 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: The Dogs won by seventy one points, and we just 331 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: crunched a few of those numbers that the damage that 332 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: they did at stopping it was so phenomenally lopsided. 333 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 2: Forty four to twenty three clearances cent abouts twenty to six, 334 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 2: And as you rightly point out, there'd be a few 335 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 2: coaches better place to sit back and go to work 336 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 2: on those numbers than ross Lyon in the space of 337 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 2: six weeks. So fore warned is always fore armed in 338 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: these situations. And then Luke Beveridge knows better than anyone 339 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 2: exactly what Rosslyn has been able to go to work on, 340 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 2: So it'd be fascinating from a coaches box point of 341 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 2: view to see it all unfold. There are players that 342 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 2: just didn't perform last week for the Western Bulldogs who 343 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 2: dominated this game. Was Marcus Bontepelli's first game back, just 344 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 2: announced himself, so this could be the first time we 345 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 2: see bonton Pelli and Darcy play from start to finish 346 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 2: for the year for the Western Bulldogs, which would give 347 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: them great heart. But the Saints have be taking some 348 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 2: great heart as well from their last outing, which is 349 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: a big. 350 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: They just plotted in the scheme to bring Melbourne down. 351 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: So plot and scheme again is looking at the coaches 352 00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: votes from that game and a couple of the players 353 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: that were reference So Fraser got five, Sanders got four 354 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: there too. Who need to get back into the fray 355 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 1: for the Dogs is maybe they've become a little more 356 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: peripheral as it's gone along Dale Williams Libertoire who was 357 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: rarely poor last week, so their only bad loss for 358 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: the season was against Hawthorne. We would absolutely expect them 359 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: to rebound. But I mean, it is a bit. It's 360 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: one of my pet hates in footys that there's only 361 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: six games that have elapsed between when these two teams 362 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: met the first time and. 363 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 3: The second time. That that does my drawer is crazy. 364 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 2: But anyway, they'll go to work on it and as 365 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 2: I said, to be able to in the space of 366 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 2: six weeks, go and just study all that. But Norton 367 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 2: was mayor and Norton is another known that we can 368 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 2: throw up here because when Sam went off, we all 369 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 2: sort of said, well, this is your moment, and he 370 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 2: had a moment. He kicked three could have had five 371 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 2: and he's had a bit of an up and down 372 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 2: season and was poor again the week before. So this 373 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 2: is their time. But there's when round? What do we 374 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 2: do around four? There's no time, no, no, there's games up. 375 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 2: Absolutely this is it. Don't make a move. 376 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 3: That's the start of the round. 377 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: Tomorrow night, right here on Fox Footy, when Saint Kilda 378 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: and the Western Bulldogs meet. Our coaches are about to 379 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: join us, Adam Simpson and John Langmire the art of 380 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: coaching in a couple of tricky scenarios. When to just 381 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 1: leave things one off alone, When to offer the right 382 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: ferm hands 383 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 2: The gold
