WEBVTT - Billy Dowling chats Crows 32-point win over the Saints

0:00:01.160 --> 0:00:04.560
<v Speaker 1>This is five double a football. We're going to head

0:00:04.600 --> 0:00:06.680
<v Speaker 1>to the rooms there, roll we because one of the

0:00:07.000 --> 0:00:10.479
<v Speaker 1>players that put in a great performance today is Billy Dowling.

0:00:10.520 --> 0:00:12.880
<v Speaker 1>He's been good enough to join us. Billy, he was

0:00:12.920 --> 0:00:14.760
<v Speaker 1>a tough old night for footy, but you've got the

0:00:14.760 --> 0:00:17.800
<v Speaker 1>four points. He got better as the game went on. Congratulations.

0:00:17.880 --> 0:00:19.960
<v Speaker 1>What's the over riding emotion after that one?

0:00:20.160 --> 0:00:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Thanks you, I appreciate It's obviously a special feeling

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:24.639
<v Speaker 2>for the group. We probably haven't had too many of

0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:27.960
<v Speaker 2>those in an underslod games throughout the year, so it's

0:00:27.960 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 2>great to have an experience with that for the boys,

0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:31.800
<v Speaker 2>and to cap it off with a win is always awesome.

0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:35.840
<v Speaker 3>So Billy camp I have you. Congratulations and well done

0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:38.879
<v Speaker 3>on your start of your career. You've sort of slotted

0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:42.479
<v Speaker 3>into that wing half forward role really well. What was

0:00:42.520 --> 0:00:45.919
<v Speaker 3>the conversation at quarter a time because Saint Kilder were

0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:49.159
<v Speaker 3>probably on top in those key areas and after that

0:00:49.560 --> 0:00:52.120
<v Speaker 3>outstanding really by you guys, and that's probably why he

0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:53.040
<v Speaker 3>got over the line.

0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thanks mate. Yeah, we obviously discussed that. You know,

0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:58.279
<v Speaker 2>we probably won't win in the contestant foot as much

0:00:58.280 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 2>as we would have liked and they're obviously in an

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:03.440
<v Speaker 2>under and keeping us quite honest as a club. So yeah,

0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:04.760
<v Speaker 2>I was just getting in under and you know, it

0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:06.119
<v Speaker 2>was up tossed if we wanted to win the game

0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:08.200
<v Speaker 2>today because it was one around the contest, So we

0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 2>just went back to the fundamentals, being clean, hard at it,

0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:12.720
<v Speaker 2>hard to play against. So proud of the boys to

0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 2>be able to achieve that throughout the last three quarters.

0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and we always I guess we highlight the leaders

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:20.840
<v Speaker 3>and lead and DAWs and were great again tonight. But

0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:25.959
<v Speaker 3>it was great to see yourself Nan Curvis again. Zach Taylor.

0:01:26.160 --> 0:01:28.120
<v Speaker 3>I thought he was stepped up again tonight. It was

0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 3>great to see him get a full game, and we

0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:32.960
<v Speaker 3>loved the job that Hugh bond did on young Higgins.

0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely obviously his special night for Bondie and the club,

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:38.480
<v Speaker 2>and he was unbelievable. I mean to take out one

0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:40.880
<v Speaker 2>of the games great forwards in the minutes obviously something

0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.680
<v Speaker 2>testament to him and he's been slogging away and dominating

0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:45.480
<v Speaker 2>a soundful level. So to see him get his opportunity

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:46.520
<v Speaker 2>and take it's awesome.

0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 3>For the club and a bit of a highlight. Big

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:52.120
<v Speaker 3>Riley down there with the bid. He looked angry, he

0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:54.440
<v Speaker 3>looked part of the thing, and he's out still running

0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 3>two hundreds at the end of the game.

0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, everyone's seen our good has been over the preseason

0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:00.720
<v Speaker 2>and obviously had a rough time with the injury, but

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:03.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, he's one of the hardest workers of the

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:04.680
<v Speaker 2>club and he's put on so much size and muscle

0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:07.000
<v Speaker 2>and he's looking as good as ever. So Wow, it's

0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:08.440
<v Speaker 2>going to be scary when he comes out and gets

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:09.680
<v Speaker 2>full game and good run at it.

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:12.799
<v Speaker 3>And I love the fact that probably in that third quarter,

0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:16.120
<v Speaker 3>you know, Jake Saligo had twelve possessions and lock your

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:19.000
<v Speaker 3>Show had ten and and kicked the goal. They were

0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:21.679
<v Speaker 3>pivotal in terms of turning the game really in those

0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 3>tough conditions.

0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, absolutely, and to you know, the young boys step

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:26.840
<v Speaker 2>up and the game are you know, I was in

0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:29.000
<v Speaker 2>there for the balance and out the time three quarter

0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 2>was there to be one for you to side. So

0:02:30.760 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 2>to have those boys step up and take that moment

0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:35.040
<v Speaker 2>was really special for us. And you're right at home

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:36.799
<v Speaker 2>with the boys, and everyone jumped on board in the

0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 2>last couple of halves, and you know, we worked hard

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.120
<v Speaker 2>to finish it off and you know it's your here

0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 2>with the four points is obviously the main thing, and

0:02:42.960 --> 0:02:43.960
<v Speaker 2>you know very grateful for that.

0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, Billy, you belong.

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:48.480
<v Speaker 4>There's no question about that. The more you play, the

0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 4>better you'll get. And we've seen that just in the

0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:53.320
<v Speaker 4>three or four games you played. Talk us through the

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 4>goal at the cathedral in you open them up with

0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 4>your right hand and later it over your book. Talk

0:02:58.080 --> 0:02:59.519
<v Speaker 4>us through that nice goal.

0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:02.240
<v Speaker 2>Ye I, reckon andiebout you used to do it, used

0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:04.160
<v Speaker 2>to line it up with a goal, and I just

0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:07.320
<v Speaker 2>started doing that training and then have an opportunity. I

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:09.200
<v Speaker 2>just sort of go through the routine and get the

0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:10.840
<v Speaker 2>laces in line with the goal, and sure enough I

0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:12.680
<v Speaker 2>went through, which is pretty lucky. So I'll take it.

0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 4>And did you think it all about like just kicking

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:20.200
<v Speaker 4>a drop pund or your knew straight away you've rehearsed that,

0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:22.880
<v Speaker 4>you practice that you thought you'd lay it over your shoulder.

0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:24.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, definitely, always thought I was going to snap it.

0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:26.920
<v Speaker 2>I think when it comes on home like that, you

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:28.320
<v Speaker 2>have to be ready to know what to do. So

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:30.359
<v Speaker 2>we trained it throughout the week and then you get

0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 2>comfort in the moment and you know there's no sort

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:33.720
<v Speaker 2>of second guessing when you're there. So yeah, I was

0:03:33.720 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 2>definitely always going to go for the snap.

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:37.240
<v Speaker 4>Can I get back to the cube. I'm not just

0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:41.200
<v Speaker 4>going on Higgins, he wore himlocking love. I just want

0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.560
<v Speaker 4>you to have a look around the rooms and make

0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:45.720
<v Speaker 4>sure he's still there because we think, you what in

0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:47.920
<v Speaker 4>the Saint Kilder room sharing with Higgins.

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.040
<v Speaker 2>He didn't give him an into an agent, did he.

0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 2>You know, that's why he came to respect for him

0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:54.040
<v Speaker 2>today and to come out and do that obviously a

0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 2>step above from the Sandford level. So for him to

0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:57.800
<v Speaker 2>do that, it's just testing it to him and wow,

0:03:57.840 --> 0:03:59.680
<v Speaker 2>he's an absolute animal at the footage and he just

0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 2>loves he's doing so Yeah, kulbe Haber as a club

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:03.960
<v Speaker 2>to see that up in a very special moment. Yea.

0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:06.960
<v Speaker 4>And the third part of the players that have played

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.400
<v Speaker 4>less than ten is Zach Taylor. He's got some beautiful

0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:13.360
<v Speaker 4>sideway moving in traffic. He seems to have time and

0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 4>space and movement. It's going to be good from now

0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:18.560
<v Speaker 4>to the end of the year to see players get

0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:20.880
<v Speaker 4>back in by the coaching group because it does give

0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 4>the other blokes a bit of a lift.

0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:23.040
<v Speaker 1>You feel that as.

0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:25.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, absolutely, we've got some really clean players in the

0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Zach Soley, Lady, all those boys. And to learn off

0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:31.440
<v Speaker 2>players like DAWs and Lady, especially for us younger boys,

0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:33.960
<v Speaker 2>it's really important. And you know, to see Solely and

0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Zack and the midfield. Just taking the craft of them

0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:38.320
<v Speaker 2>and learn from them was awesome for us. So figured

0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:40.560
<v Speaker 2>outing today for the young boys, especially throughout that midfield,

0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:41.239
<v Speaker 2>which was great.

0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Or Billy, it was a fantastic You're sixth of the season.

0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:47.640
<v Speaker 1>You're up to fourteenth after that result. Recover well, Essendon

0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:50.800
<v Speaker 1>Friday night game. It's always nice to play Friday night primetime.

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:51.680
<v Speaker 4>You're looking forward to that.

0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, it's always awesome to me primetime. So now we'll

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:56.839
<v Speaker 2>recover and get out and then all's going to be awesome.

0:04:57.080 --> 0:04:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, the Bombers went down tonight, so they'll be looking

0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:02.600
<v Speaker 1>a bounce back. Seventeen points. Congratulations, enjoy the win.

0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate thanks haarming.

0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:07.400
<v Speaker 1>On really Dowling there joining us from the rooms. Yeah,

0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:09.040
<v Speaker 1>if you just joined us. It was the Crows by

0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:13.120
<v Speaker 1>thirty two points and across the MCG Melbourne by seventeen points. Campo,

0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:16.039
<v Speaker 1>get your awards ready. We'll take a short break and

0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 1>then we'll get through all of them and will wrap

0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:22.200
<v Speaker 1>up here from Adelaide Ival. This is five double a

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:22.839
<v Speaker 1>football
