I don't even 55 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 3: know when you're talking about, like the list of pr 56 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 3: that you get allocated. I mean, surely they're all in 57 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 3: there thinking, God Brodie, he's so lucky he gets to. 58 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 2: Do the fits. Ye. True, my word it is. And 59 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: obviously we have such a great legacy and a tide 60 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: of this to the Sydney Swans with old mate who's 61 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: not with us this morning. Let him go. 62 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 3: That's interesting that you bring him up because the fact 63 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 3: that he's not here. We I mean, firstly, we just 64 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 3: were scrambling at what to ask you or what to say. 65 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 1: We're not allowed to talk. 66 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 2: We're finally amongst friends. 67 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 3: I know it's not out apartment, but we would like 68 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 3: to know when you come in here and you're a yeah, 69 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 3: do you know who Fitz is? Just who you are? 70 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: It's a good question. 71 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 3: You do know he's playing football? And like you do 72 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 3: you mention him at the Swans or does he just 73 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 3: think that. 74 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 2: He does come up from time to time not alsation. 75 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 2: I think his biggest legacy was wiring the stereo in 76 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 2: the old SCG change room so that lives on, and 77 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 2: young Errol Gordon loves to sort of thrash some E 78 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 2: D M on that. Okay, it lives on. 79 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: And then I mean he's an Adelade Crow supporter too. 80 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: You must remember that Corich. 81 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: I mean there was time but the Swans, don't get 82 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: me wrong. But then he failed in adelaide as well. 83 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 3: Say hey, you mean Brody. 84 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: No, I'm talking about fits. Yeah, yeah, I know it 85 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: was a mess at the Crows. Now, Brody, this is 86 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: a little bit off football. But when you play. When 87 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: w S the other day and we knew you were 88 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: at Energie Stadium, Kate was like, oh my god, it 89 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: gets cold out there. I hope he's not going to 90 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: get cold. Kate was really worried about that. 91 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, how do you combat the coldness? 92 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? And I'm not ashamed to say this, but I 93 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 2: was worrying what year fives would wear to score, Like 94 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 2: a little skivvy. 95 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: A little skivvy on? 96 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 2: Did mummy put it on my bed in the morning? 97 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: An undergarment? 98 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? And you know what I'm you know, I'm fully 99 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: comfortable to say that I were a little undergarment And do. 100 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 3: You take it? Do you take it off? Halftime or something, don't. 101 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and preparations everything in high performance sports. So did 102 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: I bring a second one in case it got wet? 103 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: And did you damn yes? Okay, you bought it two 104 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 2: for one. Okay, so you've done this before. 105 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: Kate was so concerned she thought, oh my god, he's 106 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: heading out west. He's going to freeze the poor lad. 107 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 3: But you did have a good game against g w S. 108 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 3: We thought they might step up a little more. 109 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 2: Yes, No, it was a good game. It was close 110 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 2: for the first first quarter. We managed to sort of 111 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: stay in the arm wrestle there, and we seem to 112 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 2: be flying at the moment, which is great. 113 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: Hey, how good is it watching Pappley? 114 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 2: Just get the ball to him and let him go. 115 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, he'd be great on this show. 116 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: Would you know what?
