Speaker 1: Thanks to Harvey Norman, the Clearics Center, cooking appliances, washing machines,
Speaker 1: just watches, TVs and more. Nine Marion Roade, Marion Jack,
Speaker 1: Betty Betty Davis, Before your Time, Jack.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's dad's family song.
Speaker 3: Is that?
Speaker 2: That sounds like she's licacious? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, what is the line? He's pre she's precocious. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but it's a Lithuanian name, isn't.
Speaker 2: It, Jack? Yeah? Yeah, Dad's dad Lithuanian, come over here
Speaker 2: a long time ago now, but yeah.
Speaker 3: That's how you're in the premiere.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's some sort of relation.
Speaker 3: Would be the same time as well.
Speaker 2: Dad's got a story. I don't know what Dad Dragons did,
Speaker 2: some sort of that I looked after him or something.
Speaker 4: Well, Jack, we're going to say when we saw you
Speaker 4: go down, it was like opening minutes really of that game.
Speaker 3: Kay Rotten like rotten timing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, Yeah. It was my first contest, about twenty
Speaker 2: seconds in so yeah, the first time game. So it
Speaker 2: was an ideal, did you know straightaway? Yeah, I put
Speaker 2: my knee into one of the Richmond players hips and
Speaker 2: I felt it crack instantly. I didn't know what I'd done,
Speaker 2: but knew it wasn't feeling quite right.
Speaker 3: Walk.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I could walk and it wasn't too painful, and
Speaker 2: I'd done a PCL before, so I knew it wasn't
Speaker 2: that and all the ligaments felt strong. It was a
Speaker 2: bit of a weird one, like I don't know, it's weird.
Speaker 2: I don't kind of think you've broken your bone, like
Speaker 2: you've put your nap in that many marking contest. So yeah,
Speaker 2: it was a bit of a weird one. So I
Speaker 2: tried to get back out there, but yeah, I wasn't
Speaker 2: quite right.
Speaker 1: So you've had the surgery. What are they actually doing
Speaker 1: in the surgeries of it, if you've got pins in
Speaker 1: it or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't, So initially I thought was gonna, yes,
Speaker 2: pretty much screw it back together, but they ended up
Speaker 2: just removing a bit of the bone that chipped off
Speaker 2: the side. So I think the surgery. From what I've heard,
Speaker 2: the surgery went really well, and potentially it could heal
Speaker 2: a bit quicker and could be a decent result in
Speaker 2: terms of play.
Speaker 1: If you've got to have you've got a date in
Speaker 1: the calendar that you've circled and you think that would
Speaker 1: be good to get back.
Speaker 2: For whatever they give me, I'll be trying to trying
Speaker 2: to beat it. I think tomorrow i'll get a full plan.
Speaker 2: Kind of have to wait a couple of weeks post
Speaker 2: surgery to see how it all pulls up and then
Speaker 2: the stitches out and stuff like that. So I think
Speaker 2: it'll be two weeks On Mondays over the weekend, they'll
Speaker 2: do a bit of work and yeah, hopefully it'll be
Speaker 2: a bit less than first thought. But see how we go.
Speaker 4: We're saying if air Jack that, I mean, there's never
Speaker 4: a good time to do this. But I suppose the
Speaker 4: one benefit, and you mentioned your your dad before is
Speaker 4: at least back here you've got more family support than
Speaker 4: you would have if you was still up in Queensland.
Speaker 3: And you're saying you've got to you got a puppy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I had. I had the puppy booked in anyway,
Speaker 2: getting other week after that game. So they had surgery
Speaker 2: on the Monday and then the pup got dropped off
Speaker 2: on the Wednesday. So I was pretty much spent a
Speaker 2: week going insane, asking my knee and talking to a puppy.
Speaker 1: Yet, good time, little bit of puppy. We've got it
Speaker 1: up on the Facebook and YouTube live stream at the moment.
Speaker 1: That's the puppy's name, Lexi, So Lexi borer Collie.
Speaker 2: Now she's a busy shepherd but looks exactly like a
Speaker 2: border collie right, But yeah, she's learning her name and
Speaker 2: probably learning tricks a bit.
Speaker 1: Quicker than in your house apart not yet.
Speaker 2: I've got so many toys and she's tearing them apart
Speaker 2: to look after her.
Speaker 4: And is the sort of boredom factor challenging because footy
Speaker 4: is such a social thing, isn't it like you? You know,
Speaker 4: you get training if I'm standing around, you know, talking rubbish,
Speaker 4: having fun, a few jokes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the best part of footyo. I reckon, you
Speaker 2: got whether you're going well or not going well, You've
Speaker 2: got forty odd blokes you can get through the week with.
Speaker 2: So I reckon the first week when I'm sitting at home,
Speaker 2: I think that's probably the longest, most boring part. But
Speaker 2: now I'm in the club, I'm doing rehab, doing plenty
Speaker 2: of weight, some with all the lads. So yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: good when I'm working towards something. I've got to got
Speaker 2: to goal to achieve.
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: Do you feel a bit dirty too, because they're coming healthy.
Speaker 1: You know, Zach Barters is back and Radigalis had a
Speaker 1: game under his belt, and it's starting to look like
Speaker 1: the port team that you know ended last year as
Speaker 1: opposed to the really injury hit one that started this year.
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, it's obviously really frustrating, like did a heap
Speaker 2: of work over summer and then lasted just over a game.
Speaker 2: But yeah, hopefully, yeah, you're right, the boys are coming back,
Speaker 2: so hopefully the team's in a better spot.
Speaker 1: Do you come back in when you're injured? Do you
Speaker 1: get fitness anxiety? Well, you're not, you're not putting in
Speaker 1: the work. Do you start thinking how much beyond just recovering,
Speaker 1: how much am I going to have to get back
Speaker 1: to get up to that sort of match fitness level
Speaker 1: because you can't run? Or have they got you doing that?
Speaker 1: What's that horrible exercise they get they do with your
Speaker 1: arms when you do Hammi's and so forth?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do, You do plenty of stuff.
Speaker 1: They're trying to get you doing cardio without your le
Speaker 1: which sounds.
Speaker 2: Like sweating next week, So that's that's how to come.
Speaker 2: But I'll be doing when you have the scare go boxing. Yeah,
Speaker 2: seated boxing all that kind of stuff. So no, I've
Speaker 2: ye been engine before and seen plenty of guys in rehab,
Speaker 2: and you come back pretty far I think. Okay, it
Speaker 2: doesn't drop away that much, probably initially when you first
Speaker 2: start running, but you do. You do a heap of
Speaker 2: swimming box and whatever that and then I'm naturally an
Speaker 2: okay runner, So hopefully I'm in a pretty good spot
Speaker 2: when I come back.
Speaker 3: See how how far off would you be from running?
Speaker 3: You reckon?
Speaker 2: I actually got no idea. I feel I feel closer
Speaker 2: to that I thought I would.
Speaker 1: So pain's not bad. It sounds like pain's.
Speaker 2: Getting better and beat every daw. Yeah, so I actually
Speaker 2: got no idea. I'd be guessing if I told you
Speaker 2: maybe month, but that's just absolute yess.
Speaker 4: So aside from the from the puppy, how do you
Speaker 4: keep yourself from newsday like that first couple of weeks?
Speaker 4: What was you know first the first week? You know,
Speaker 4: can you just hit hit the Netflix all that sort
Speaker 4: of stuff?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Shepherd Shield went for four days straight?
Speaker 1: Yeah, how good was that?
Speaker 2: Almost every pore?
Speaker 3: That Wasn't that such a great cricket match?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I love my cricket, so that was unreal.
Speaker 1: And did you ever have to make a decision as
Speaker 1: a junior cricket footage?
Speaker 2: I'm kind of like I loved. I loved cricket and footy.
Speaker 2: And then when it was about sixteen evan in and
Speaker 2: I was training for cricket through footy season in winter
Speaker 2: up at Adelaide. Well that's when I was like, I'm
Speaker 2: not sure this is quite for me. Yeah, I was
Speaker 2: loving and bowling into an empty net.
Speaker 5: Did you bowl a bat? I was a bowler obviously, yeah,
Speaker 5: which you got the build for a bowler. Yeah, so
Speaker 5: we're training wise, isn't it quite stimulating? I don't think,
Speaker 5: just run again and bowling?
Speaker 3: What do you think?
Speaker 2: Saturday morning when I was three for, I thought I
Speaker 2: had to chat to Chris Davies. Obviously he's a head
Speaker 2: of footy, like after day one he goes make sure
Speaker 2: both teams are bat like he was he wasn't I'm
Speaker 2: counting as lucky stars. Yeah, but yeah tested at three
Speaker 2: for but obviously it's still a carry in there and
Speaker 2: I just thought, yeah, if we win this, it's going
Speaker 2: to be absolutely well, aren't. And I think it couldn't
Speaker 2: have been a better script.
Speaker 3: As a bowler.
Speaker 4: Good to see a bowler get mad of the match
Speaker 4: because often you know, the centuries get all the headlines.
Speaker 4: But that that eleventh was was dog at bowled so well,
Speaker 4: didn't he?
Speaker 2: Yeah, on a pretty flat pitch as well. Yeah, totally no,
Speaker 2: it was pretty pretty incredible game. And the young fella
Speaker 2: from Queensland as well, he was pretty impressive.
Speaker 1: The first when you were running charging in you were
Speaker 1: you were aligning length Glenn McGrath's style, metronomes or you
Speaker 1: pinging bloke's heads off.
Speaker 2: What was your Yeah, I was bounce. I wasn't lightning,
Speaker 2: but the bounce was my thing. Yeah, right, So angles
Speaker 2: and somehow more angry on a cricket field than is
Speaker 2: that right?
Speaker 1: Lots of bounces yeah, yeah, pretty the conic on the
Speaker 1: footy field.
Speaker 3: Yeah, getting to the sledging uh yeah.
Speaker 2: Very verbal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jack, well, great in mate. Glad to hear the
Speaker 1: recovery is going well and well maybe some exciting news
Speaker 1: to come if it is a couple of weeks, maybe
Speaker 1: sooner than originally talking about.
