WEBVTT - Adelaide Crows' Tom Doedee Shares His Thoughts On Recent Bumping Controversy

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Flays and gentlemen, please welcome Tom Doo day you hey,

0:00:03.800 --> 0:00:04.360
<v Speaker 1>happy to be.

0:00:04.320 --> 0:00:07.440
<v Speaker 2>Here, Yeah, happy to have you. Last time I saw you,

0:00:07.600 --> 0:00:09.520
<v Speaker 2>our dogs had a play date. You've got a dog

0:00:09.560 --> 0:00:12.399
<v Speaker 2>called Lenny and I've got a dog called Sid. Now,

0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:15.760
<v Speaker 2>in terms of size, they couldn't be more different, And

0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:18.200
<v Speaker 2>so it was your job. You were assigned to tear

0:00:18.239 --> 0:00:20.880
<v Speaker 2>them apart because Lenny was very aggressive with.

0:00:20.880 --> 0:00:22.160
<v Speaker 3>My little attack dog Sid.

0:00:22.280 --> 0:00:22.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:00:22.560 --> 0:00:23.919
<v Speaker 4>I did a poor job with that too.

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:26.520
<v Speaker 3>Got himself tangled up in all the least very well

0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:27.080
<v Speaker 3>tangled up.

0:00:27.680 --> 0:00:29.480
<v Speaker 5>I thought letting him off lead would be okay, But

0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:33.680
<v Speaker 5>it turns out Lenny's paws bigger than Sid's entire body. Yeah, yeah,

0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:36.240
<v Speaker 5>not my best effort, but they become best friends.

0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:37.880
<v Speaker 4>Towards the end, we just had to make sure.

0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:40.400
<v Speaker 5>Lenny was a bit subdued and laying down and not

0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:41.400
<v Speaker 5>able to trample on her.

0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:43.559
<v Speaker 3>And Lenny's grown again, You say.

0:00:43.640 --> 0:00:45.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, he's become a bit of a weapon. The big

0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:48.199
<v Speaker 5>fellow's he's getting bigger and bigger. When he stands up

0:00:48.240 --> 0:00:51.919
<v Speaker 5>on his back legs, he's genuinely six foot. So yeah,

0:00:51.960 --> 0:00:53.479
<v Speaker 5>it's a bit concerning. I need him slow down. He's

0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:54.200
<v Speaker 5>going to become a great day.

0:00:54.200 --> 0:00:57.200
<v Speaker 3>And so in football terms, Lenny would be a rouckman.

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Right, just a big burly character.

0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:01.760
<v Speaker 4>And Sid would be an under eights. I was kicker,

0:01:01.960 --> 0:01:02.560
<v Speaker 4>yeah right.

0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:07.120
<v Speaker 5>In and under mid same like coordination levels too on

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:07.520
<v Speaker 5>both of them.

0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 4>A Reica, you're big.

0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Fellow's just dragging the two k dragon.

0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:13.000
<v Speaker 5>He's a bit behind, but he's also like big goofy,

0:01:13.200 --> 0:01:16.319
<v Speaker 5>like the brain doesn't work as well with What.

0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 3>Are you saying about ruckman mate?

0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:20.680
<v Speaker 4>Nothing? Nothing good rippers, both of them.

0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 6>Hey tom Me, good to have you on board again.

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:23.880
<v Speaker 6>It's what we've got a nice little history of over now.

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:27.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. Yeah, it's growing. The background's grown and big upgrade

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 5>though this year with you too.

0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:32.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah, so true. If they go, I had enough

0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.840
<v Speaker 4>of those two and brought you guys.

0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 1>In and on behalf of all of us.

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.679
<v Speaker 5>Sorry about them, Yeah yeah, I mean I've been waiting

0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 5>for that apology.

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:40.920
<v Speaker 3>Let's not get too carried away. They're still on from

0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:41.520
<v Speaker 3>six or seven.

0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:44.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, actually no, we need to pump them up.

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:46.240
<v Speaker 6>So what we did learn and we haven't learned over

0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:48.400
<v Speaker 6>the last couple of years is you're a big tweeter.

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:50.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I love Twitter. You don't mind it.

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:54.040
<v Speaker 5>I originally jumped on it just because of American sports.

0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:55.720
<v Speaker 5>It's just huge over in America, and it just gave

0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 5>me a good insight. And then when I was like

0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 5>younger and didn't have a profile or anything, I used

0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 5>to just like tweet it my favorite analysts and talk

0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 5>NFL with them. And then when I got drafted, it

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:06.000
<v Speaker 5>sort of people started following me, and then I was like,

0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:06.760
<v Speaker 5>oh crap.

0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 4>Like I can't can't do what I used to do.

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:10.680
<v Speaker 5>But and then turn the movies and stuff like that,

0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:12.760
<v Speaker 5>it's actually not a bad spot to interact with people

0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:14.000
<v Speaker 5>of the same like mine.

0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:17.040
<v Speaker 2>So you too share a love of NFL and NBA.

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:18.679
<v Speaker 2>So I'm just going to draw a line in the

0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:20.760
<v Speaker 2>sand right now. That's not what this segment is going

0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:22.079
<v Speaker 2>to be about, week in, week out.

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 6>It feels like it does have the capacity to, at

0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:27.040
<v Speaker 6>least within this segment, be a little space where we

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:30.200
<v Speaker 6>can share our feelings, particularly on an NBA side of things.

0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:32.680
<v Speaker 5>Your team to yeah, no, no team in the NBA.

0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:37.320
<v Speaker 5>I'm completely neutral. I just go for whoever, whoever, whoever's

0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:40.640
<v Speaker 5>winninge I can double the bandwagon on or I've got

0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:41.480
<v Speaker 5>money on either.

0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:43.480
<v Speaker 1>Way, I go for whoever Lebron's playing for.

0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, same sort of thing. Yes, classic, I've got.

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:46.720
<v Speaker 1>To regret this.

0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:49.800
<v Speaker 3>Your NFL team? What's your NFL team?

0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 4>Patriots?

0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Right? Okay, Patriots even post Brady.

0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:56.720
<v Speaker 6>Yeah wow, yes, that's loyalty still with them.

0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:58.680
<v Speaker 3>Okay. What do you make of the weekend? It was?

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:00.000
<v Speaker 3>It was a game of two halves, wasn't it?

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:00.600
<v Speaker 5>Like?

0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:04.240
<v Speaker 2>As Mattie Nick said, You know, in the first half,

0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:06.040
<v Speaker 2>he showed what you can do as the Adelaie Crow's

0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:08.320
<v Speaker 2>Football club. In the second half, you also showed what

0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:09.919
<v Speaker 2>you can do as the LA football club.

0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:10.600
<v Speaker 3>Do you agree with that?

0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:11.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:12.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you know you hit the nail on the head.

0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:14.799
<v Speaker 5>We went in the game really confident. We've had a

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:18.480
<v Speaker 5>great preseason, two good preseason games. Boys are really fit,

0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:20.600
<v Speaker 5>and we thought with the conditions we'd be able to

0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:23.000
<v Speaker 5>get on top of them. But started really well, and

0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 5>then as the game went along, we just had a

0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:28.040
<v Speaker 5>few lapses. Our defense dropped off, and then we sort

0:03:28.040 --> 0:03:30.080
<v Speaker 5>of just thought our offense would take over and winnas

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:31.679
<v Speaker 5>the game and we'd score one hundred and fifty and

0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:33.520
<v Speaker 5>they might score a hundred, but we'd still get the win.

0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 5>And unfortunately, at this level, that's not how it works.

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:37.600
<v Speaker 5>And they got the better officers.

0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:38.680
<v Speaker 6>Thought you were going to score one hundred and fifty

0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:41.760
<v Speaker 6>out of the first half, People start, including your better half,

0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:44.320
<v Speaker 6>started to just almost book it for you.

0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:47.600
<v Speaker 3>When you're up by thirty points, I reckon first or

0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:48.200
<v Speaker 3>second quarter.

0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.560
<v Speaker 2>He screenshot the live ladder because the Adlai Crows were

0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:53.520
<v Speaker 2>on top and you had a percentage of four hundred.

0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:56.080
<v Speaker 2>So he screenshot and then he posted it on Instagram

0:03:56.120 --> 0:04:01.520
<v Speaker 2>said booking Grand Final tickets. Now that's not no, no,

0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:03.400
<v Speaker 2>exactly right. We're going to ask you about that bump,

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 2>don't we, So the McCadam bump. What were your thoughts

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:06.440
<v Speaker 2>on that?

0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:08.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, at the time, I didn't see it.

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.800
<v Speaker 5>And then move on see that the replays and there's

0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:14.080
<v Speaker 5>a bit, obviously a bit in the clip, and then

0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:18.359
<v Speaker 5>move towards the decision. And there's a few things I

0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:20.120
<v Speaker 5>like to say, but there's an appeal going on tonight,

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.320
<v Speaker 5>and I don't want to say too much.

0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:24.640
<v Speaker 4>But the main thing we want going forward.

0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:26.880
<v Speaker 5>From the AFL is just clarity on what is and

0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 5>what isn't allowed. And I feel like we've left this

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:32.040
<v Speaker 5>round with more confusion rather than clarity in that regard,

0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:34.840
<v Speaker 5>but yes, it's disappointing because Shane is obviously a big

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:36.799
<v Speaker 5>part of our team and not having any three weeks.

0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 4>Is going to hurt.

0:04:37.160 --> 0:04:40.120
<v Speaker 6>So we had a conversation yesterday about the bump in general.

0:04:40.640 --> 0:04:43.640
<v Speaker 6>As a player, are you looking to bump now because

0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:44.480
<v Speaker 6>it's pretty risky.

0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:45.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:48.560
<v Speaker 5>No, it's basically it's moving towards being completely abolished, really

0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:51.719
<v Speaker 5>in the way that if you go for the bump

0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:54.680
<v Speaker 5>and anything happens with that player he drops his knees

0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:56.440
<v Speaker 5>or he's sliding or something, and it leads to any

0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 5>sort of high contact, you know you're in strife. So

0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:01.000
<v Speaker 5>I think the af I wanted to move to just

0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:04.640
<v Speaker 5>just tackle, don't even think about bumping, And that's the

0:05:04.640 --> 0:05:06.440
<v Speaker 5>way it feels like it's moving. And as a player

0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:08.960
<v Speaker 5>now there's no real reason to bump, is what it

0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:09.320
<v Speaker 5>feels like.

0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:10.800
<v Speaker 2>What would you have done without the bump in your

0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:12.599
<v Speaker 2>day when you were playing because you were filthy you

0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:13.680
<v Speaker 2>just want to lay blokes out.

0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 6>We're playing the reserves. He's based on skill and Shane,

0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:20.359
<v Speaker 6>how's he going? Because we know from what we know

0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:23.320
<v Speaker 6>of Shan McCadam, he's a quiet sort of bloke all

0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:27.080
<v Speaker 6>attention almost in like the entire headlines for the last

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.440
<v Speaker 6>few days have been on Shane McCadam nationally.

0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:30.599
<v Speaker 1>How's he dealing with it all?

0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 4>No, I think he's been pretty good. He was around

0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:33.360
<v Speaker 4>the club yesterday.

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 5>He obviously went to the tribal hearing and he just

0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:37.960
<v Speaker 5>sort of sort of sit there and he has to

0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:39.480
<v Speaker 5>be present but doesn't have to say a whole lot,

0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:42.719
<v Speaker 5>And that was a different experience for him, and I

0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:44.680
<v Speaker 5>don't think he enjoyed it particularly, just sit there for

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 5>two hours listening to him talk about one specific incident.

0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:49.760
<v Speaker 5>But no, he was pretty up and about around the

0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:51.640
<v Speaker 5>club in the sense that he always is. He's always

0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 5>smiling and cracking jokes. And I think he's still a

0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:56.680
<v Speaker 5>bit of hope there that it might get overturned. But

0:05:56.720 --> 0:05:58.640
<v Speaker 5>he's disappointed to miss the three games, but it's not

0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:00.880
<v Speaker 5>something he's going to let ruin week or is he

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:01.560
<v Speaker 5>in that regard?

0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:05.040
<v Speaker 2>See what happens to Ma and Ha. Yeah, we are

0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:06.599
<v Speaker 2>so thrilled to have you on board. Thank you so

0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:07.760
<v Speaker 2>much for coming in this morning.

0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:09.360
<v Speaker 4>Thank y, thank you.

0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Tom, very good stuff. You'll do this again.

0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:15.480
<v Speaker 4>Nicest thing Jody's ever said about it.
