How's your injury going? 11 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's actually from where it started to where it is, 12 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 4: it's trending really well. So I've had a really good 13 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 4: first nine days post injury and yeah, I've been able 14 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 4: to get a significant amount of work in. 15 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 3: So so is it. 16 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 4: You're groin Yeah, so I heard it's an aductor strain, 17 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 4: so a reoccurrence of the similar injury that happened about 18 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 4: a month ago, but I was a little bit more 19 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 4: significant this time. So we've been able to get plenty 20 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 4: in and I've been training pretty hard. 21 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 3: I've made up some time, which is pleasing. 22 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: But because did they originally say you're out for the season. 23 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, so they gave me like. 24 00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 4: A it was pretty much a four to six type 25 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 4: window originally, and then given that I injured at the 26 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 4: first time, i'd get a feebe of work in pre 27 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 4: It's helped me bounce back to this one really relatively quickly. 28 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: So have we just got to rest it. 29 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 3: We weren't really in a position to rest it. 30 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 4: So if the injury happened in June, it's a lot 31 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 4: different than the way that you treated in August. So 32 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 4: now that finals come around entered September, you've got to 33 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 4: get pretty aggressive with it. 34 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's because the week off between the season and 35 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 2: the finals some people love and some people hate, but 36 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 2: for someone like you, it must be great. 37 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 3: Another we well welcome to it, and that's why. 38 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 4: And then fortunate enough at top four position that if 39 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 4: the boys could manage to go extra well and get 40 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 4: it done and buys me another two weeks, which would 41 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 4: be nice. 42 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, otherwise you've got you it's a tough call. 43 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 5: So if they go down to the Crows, then you've 44 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 5: got to decide whether you play the next match. But 45 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 5: if you've gone to early, then you might not be 46 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 5: out to the Grand Final. 47 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 3: And that, oh, it's a discussion that you have. 48 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 4: But given a given what's on the line and what's 49 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 4: required to play like it's hard enough, but finals is 50 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 4: a different kettle of fish, So you'd have to be 51 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 4: very sure that you're good to go, and yeah, you'd 52 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 4: definitely be touching go. 53 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: So what is the vibe around the Colleingwood Football Club 54 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: like at the moment, because I love this time of year, 55 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 2: there's a buzz in the airs of that. 56 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you nailed it. 57 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 4: I think this time as soon as September hits, the 58 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 4: weather changes, everyone gets a whiff of finals and then 59 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 4: just puts you in a. 60 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 3: Really exciting frame of mind. 61 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 4: And you look at this this final series in particular, 62 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 4: I think the eight sides that are in it, you 63 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 4: can mount a really strong case for who's who's playing well, 64 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 4: who's got a. 65 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 3: Chance to win it all, who's your what's your Gutso outside. 66 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 2: Of us really, yeah, do you think it's going to 67 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 2: say another team?

I get Phomo really bad. 110 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 4: But to the feeling of like knowing that you can't 111 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 4: really contribute on field is really hard to really hard 112 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 4: to take. But yeah, the guys are training well. They 113 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 4: put himself in a great position to take on Adelaide 114 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 4: and really excited to watch. 115 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: Just quickly I did mention the Dad's footy match. You 116 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: watched the video? Any feedback, Ah, So we've got this. 117 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 4: We've actually got this thing that would would hold you 118 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 4: in good stead. We call it don't no happy feet. 119 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 4: So when you get the ball or a free kick 120 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 4: or a mark, don't don't like kind of the penguage, 121 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 4: do something like. 122 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 2: Don't run on the spot because you cough it up. 123 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 4: It's easy to turn over and unfortunately that's kind of 124 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 4: probably what happened in your scenario, happy Feet, But it 125 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 4: was just good to see you get out there and 126 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 4: the tag it. 127 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: Well, that's exactly right. So with the other thing he 128 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: needed to learn was the that would have been a 129 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 2: good start. 130 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. 131 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 5: If I hear the free kick man just stop the game, 132 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 5: I would have taken my time, you know, real. 133 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 3: Hear the whistle, it's an opportunity to take a breath. 134 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'll tell you worry. I was focusing on breathing. 135 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 136 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: Hey, there is a real rivalry between Adelaide and Collingwood. 137 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 2: We've seen a couple of games where it's been very physical. 138 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: There's also been some controversy in games with Isaac crankin 139 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 2: between Adelaide and Collingwood. Do you think that that the 140 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: Pies players will go into it with a bit more 141 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 2: fire in the belly? 142 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 5: Oh? 143 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 4: With how that plays out, I think that the fans 144 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 4: will have a genuine thirst for the game more than 145 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 4: more than ever. But yeah, for us, I think our 146 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 4: last ten games against the Crow has been really really close. 147 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 4: So we've been fortunate enough to pip them on most 148 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 4: of those occasions. 149 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 3: But then on the weekend when we played them a 150 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago. 151 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 4: Sorry, they got us by three, and that game could 152 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 4: have gone either way. You know, we'll plus thirty three 153 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 4: inside fifty, which and not winning a game is pretty outrageous. 154 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 4: But their defense is unbelievable.
