Was mighty in every 7 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 2: sense of the word. The Lines now have a league 8 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 2: record five premierships since two thousand and The scary thing 9 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 2: is it doesn't feel like they're dropping out of contention 10 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 2: anytime soon. And now the silly season begins and it 11 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 2: could be the silliest in seven years with an array 12 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: of big names poised to move clubs across the next month, 13 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: we'll have breakdowns of the Grand Final and trade period 14 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 2: as well as all your favorite segments in the post 15 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 2: Grand Final edition of the Fox Footy Podcast.

I'm sure most people listening are thrilled 19 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 3: because it did feel like the Neutrals were very much 20 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 3: for the Lions at the spite of the Lines winning 21 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 3: last year. Yes, it's Are we going to get sick 22 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 3: of them now? They're still pretty likable Neil Fagan and 23 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 3: Andrews a very likable core group up on the stage 24 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 3: at the end. 25 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 2: So something needs to happen for like a heel turned to. 26 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 3: Oh steel chair sort of rip off the shirts Mark 27 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 3: Gold he's a freemanal player Lucky New York. 28 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 2: Yes, that's Chris Fagan's music. Also joining us frothing at 29 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 2: the bit for this twenty twenty five trade period Jack Jobnoski, 30 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: Hello Jack. 31 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 4: Yes, Hello Ben, Hello Max. It's it's very good to 32 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 4: be here for the back of a enjoyable Grand Final. 33 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 4: Enjoyable Yes, you were one of the usuals. 34 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: Yes, I was. It was a it was a very good. 35 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 4: Game to watch as a neutral, especially in the first half. Yeah, 36 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 4: I think it was. I think in terms of the neutrals, 37 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 4: a lot of them are obviously Victorian fans of other 38 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 4: Victorian clubs who would prefer to see Along lose and 39 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 4: win given their successes of the last. 40 00:01:58,360 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: I don't know. 41 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 3: I don't think anyone was probe Along unless you were 42 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 3: a Geelong fan, to be honest. 43 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's certainly how it certainly how it's seen that. 44 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 4: I think there are you know, maybe a few characters 45 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 4: who don't quite help that sort of storyline. 46 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 3: Okay, yeh know, that's an interesting argument. Ballely Smith did 47 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:15,839 Speaker 3: it a big weekend. 48 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 2: He did have a big weekend, he had had big numbers, 49 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 2: but it just did not have much much impact on 50 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 2: the game. Well, we'll get to forgot your heads up, Jack, 51 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 2: Do you want to get your Brisbane player ratings out? 52 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 2: In particular? I think it's oh yes, who were doing 53 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: ratings to compare notes, but just overall on the game 54 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, Richmond kicked four goals to two after quarter time. 55 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: Twenty twenty one, the famous sixteen sixteen goals to one 56 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 2: from halfway through quarter three to full time the Demons 57 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 2: against the Dogs last year Brisbane fourteen goals to two 58 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 2: after quarter time and then on Saturday eleven goals to 59 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 2: two from halftime to late in the fourth quarter. Brisbane 60 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 2: led by as much as sixty four points. So in 61 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: a grand final, Max and congratulations to the lines. But 62 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 2: in a great final, it can get out of control 63 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: real quick. 64 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 3: So the game went exactly as I tipped it, except 65 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 3: for the team that won. So I don't think I 66 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 3: can probably count that, but tight until about halfway through 67 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 3: the third and then blows out. That's sort of the 68 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 3: modern trend of Grand Finals, roughly Sydney Brisbane blew out earlier. 69 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 3: But it makes so much sense because you looked at 70 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 3: you along in that fourth quarter. There was one team 71 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 3: playing at that point, and it was Brisbane going inside 72 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 3: fifty repeatedly and kicking goals every time they went inside. 73 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 2: It was like it was pushing video game mode. Like 74 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: during certainly that fourth quarter at. 75 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 3: Time, someone got frustrated at the controller, went into the settings, 76 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: changed it all the way down to beginner halfway through 77 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 3: the third and then locking hil took over and all 78 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 3: of that stuff worked out for them. So it makes sense. 79 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 3: You go into party time mode, so the line's got 80 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 3: to celebrate it. That's good fun for them, but it 81 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 3: means that you've got a margin forty seven points that 82 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 3: was both completely unreflective of the majority of the game 83 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,839 Speaker 3: but also completely fair because Brisbane were the better team 84 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 3: all day. They should have been up at halftime. It 85 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 3: was tied for the first time since nineteen oh nine 86 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: at the long break, but they were the better team. 87 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 2: They had it on their terms. 88 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: They were able to move the ball from their defense 89 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 3: fifty far better than they were in the qualifying final, 90 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 3: and they were doing it by kicking longer than usual. 91 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 3: That was their second highest rate of long kicks for 92 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 3: the season, only below Round one again Sydney at the SCG, 93 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 3: which is a unique ground in some ways. So they 94 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 3: played a different style. And this is the thing I 95 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 3: flagged also on the podcast last week that it can 96 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 3: be a problem when you play a team three weeks later, 97 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 3: is that Brisbane got to make the adjustments, didn't Geelong 98 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: wanted to play the exact same game and it didn't work. 99 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: And then pretty been the same tags exactly. 100 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: Brisbane got to adjust their kicking style. So that's a 101 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 3: conscious thing, and then you have things that maybe you 102 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 3: don't control, but just go your way. They had much 103 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 3: better pressure, They had much better stoppage game like a 104 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 3: lot of their goals from stoppage came in the fourth 105 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 3: quarter as well, but they were still dominating from that 106 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 3: source for most of the game. So they this is 107 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 3: what happens. You do all the previews, we do, all 108 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 3: the predictions, and then Brisbane just plays really well and 109 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 3: Geelong doesn't, and then therefore a fly decided. 110 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 2: You were bullish on the lines heading into the game, though, Jack, Yeah, 111 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 2: I was. 112 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 4: Well, the thing I've been really stark about the way 113 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 4: that the game ballooned out was that Geelong isn't a 114 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 4: team I've ever identified as you know, a team that 115 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 4: would sort of I guess fold in a way that 116 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 4: they did late in that game. You think of the 117 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 4: Sydney of last year, who maybe would have had those 118 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 4: mental demons from twenty twenty two, and you could do 119 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 4: to expect why they would fold the way they did. 120 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 4: But Geelong is not a team that you ever associate 121 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 4: with that sort of fall off. So that was quite stark. Yeah, 122 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 4: I was big on the lines. I think that what 123 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 4: they can do and what they have done from half 124 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 4: back with the players that they have coming out of defense, 125 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 4: is a massive driver for what they are able to 126 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 4: do offensively. And obviously Geelong in that first matchup in 127 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 4: the qualifier, we're able to limit those shorter kicks that 128 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 4: you know, mcluggages and Zorko's love to hit, and it 129 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 4: was more sort of really driving forward and winning aerially, 130 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 4: which is something I did really well in the back 131 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 4: half as well with Harris Anders and Jasper Fletcher. 132 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 3: Harry's Andrews that arguably should have won the norm Smith. 133 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: I think it was a very very close race. You 134 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 3: could have probably given votes to five or six guys, 135 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 3: and I think they did. Lockie Neil arguably could have 136 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 3: gotten the photos. Yes, one of the best sub performances 137 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 3: you'll ever say, particularly given the context. But no, and 138 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 3: Andrews would have gotten my three. The only you mentioned 139 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 3: Gelong fading out like that, The only game I can 140 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 3: compare it to was the twenty one prelim against Melbourne 141 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 3: when they end up losing eighty three points. Yes, that 142 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 3: was the game. The game of course, where they had 143 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 3: a spa and all got the flu a few. 144 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 2: Days before record whatever ex space came out. 145 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 3: So that's the only time I've seen a Gelong team 146 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 3: play like that. So I don't know how much you 147 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 3: can take from it instructionally. Like I put out a 148 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 3: poll on my Twitter page, is forty seven points? Does 149 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 3: that equal a soul destroying loss that ruins your next season? 150 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 3: Like we talked about Sydney for six months about them 151 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 3: having nightmares? Are we going to talk about Gelong the 152 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 3: same way? It doesn't quite feel like it. Maybe that's 153 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,119 Speaker 3: just more faith in them knowing better. 154 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 2: I think you're right though that the forty seven In 155 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 2: one way, the forty seven point margin didn't truly reflect 156 00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:01,239 Speaker 2: the nature of the game early, but ultimately the way 157 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 2: when we've talked about how it felt like Geelong almost 158 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 2: rolled over in that second half, sixty four points might 159 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 2: have been more a true reflection of that, considering how 160 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 2: well Brisbane played and how ineppt Geelong was in the 161 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 2: back half there. So maybe forty seven points is somewhere 162 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 2: in the middle. Does it? Is it sol destroying for 163 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: next season? I don't necessarily think so. Like the Geelong 164 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 2: sides who have gone close, and they've gone close a 165 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 2: lot in the past, that there's always been is this 166 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 2: the end of have they hit the cliff? Is this? 167 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: Are they at the edge of the cliff? Now? Geelong's 168 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 2: so shrewdly in the past few years, they've flipped over 169 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 2: their lists and there's so many young, exciting players on 170 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 2: that list now that will learn from Saturday's experience that 171 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 2: neither Brisbane or Geelong. I don't think you're going anywhere anytime. 172 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 3: So eleven different players from the twenty two grounds, that's 173 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 3: the same, I believe, so that's crazy to give them 174 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: like that was an old team. Obviously you needed some regeneration, 175 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 3: but it didn't feel quite like that necessarily. But it's 176 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 3: quite a stark change. 177 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is just from a the argument around what 178 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 2: would you described as a dynasty team? Do you need 179 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 2: to win three in a short period of time. So, 180 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 2: for instance, I would say the Geelong seven to twenty 181 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: eleven teams a dynasty. They won three and five years clearly, 182 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 2: Hawthorne is clearly, Richmond is Brisbane early two thousands, Brisbane 183 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 2: early two thousands. 184 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 3: I think three and five is the minimum bar three 185 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: and six, and if you made like one or two 186 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 3: more Grand Finals you could make a case. But a 187 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 3: majority of them over half a decade has to be there. 188 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 3: And therefore Brisbane was one very very close game against 189 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 3: Collingwood away from a three piece. 190 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 2: Should we be more sorry, man, we should we be more 191 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: lenient in the dynasty discussion? Now considering the eighteen team here, 192 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 2: I understand Richmond and Hawthorne did it in the eighteen 193 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 2: team era, but now Gold Coast and Giants are more established, 194 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 2: it should be more lenient because they have had seven 195 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 2: consecutive finals appearances, they've made three straight Grand finals and 196 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,199 Speaker 2: potentially could have won that Grand Final against Colling, which 197 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: would be more lean When looking at this team, it's 198 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 2: a potential dynasty team. No, they are definitely a potential one. 199 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 3: If they win it next year they are, or if 200 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 3: they win it the year after that, and they are 201 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 3: every tense of doing so because they look like they've 202 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 3: got a bunch of kids under twenty three, a lot 203 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 3: of them sons of X players as it turns out, 204 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 3: our academy prospects, who are quite damn good and are 205 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 3: going to keep them up there for a while. So 206 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 3: every reason they can, but not yet, because they've had 207 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 3: an incredible, sustained run of success, which is remarkable in 208 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 3: context of the previous decade. 209 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 2: They were the losingest. 210 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 3: Team of the twenty tens, but they are now an 211 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 3: incredible force. 212 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 2: And it was I. 213 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 3: Thought it was interesting to see a day where Chris 214 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 3: Fagan completely out coached Chris Scott. It was the best 215 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 3: coach of the AFL. Chris Scott, selection decisions on the day, 216 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 3: tactical stuff all outclassed by Fagan, who is not really regarded. 217 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 3: His strength is not the tactical side of things. But 218 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 3: you make the gamble on Locky Neil now either pays 219 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: off or it doesn't. He looks like an idiot, or 220 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 3: he doesn't. And that's what he said in the press conference. 221 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 3: It worked out for them. You have another big Geelong 222 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 3: final where the ruck selection is a problem, Reeve Stanley 223 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 3: coming in doing nothing and the midfield mix not working 224 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 3: with him in there. Like the fact that you sub 225 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 3: him out rather than the guy with a broken arm 226 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 3: in Jeremy Cameron, say's a lot. 227 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 2: That was pretty damning Jack when that happened. We saw 228 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 2: the Jeremy Cameron incident and I was listening to the 229 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 2: Fox commentary at the time and Gary Lyne said this 230 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 2: could be a turning point in this game for how 231 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 2: inspirational that act was. The problem is that Jeremy tackled 232 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 2: with the good hand but landed again on the bad 233 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 2: hand and then had to go off for seventeen minutes 234 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 2: and from then on it was all Brisbane. And Yeah, 235 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 2: the fact that ree Stanley got subbed oubt was pretty 236 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 2: damning on his behalf. Yeah. 237 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 4: I think it's interesting though, because he had played fifteen 238 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 4: games in the senior team this year and no one 239 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 4: linkedn night because Geelong winning games right, So then he 240 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 4: comes back in he's recovered from his hamstring injury and 241 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 4: he gets picked and you know he's played all these 242 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 4: games this season, so to blitzers to coning thing had 243 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 4: worked well in previous weeks running up to it. How 244 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 4: much of a differen would that have made then if Stanley, 245 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 4: if it was maybe Jed Bue's who came in and 246 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 4: not Stanley, Like, how much does that impact to what 247 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 4: they what Geelong would then do defensively in terms of 248 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 4: Blixars and his versatility. 249 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 3: Fatally understand the point, but you can blame the choice 250 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 3: to play an extra ruckman when you were beaten in 251 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 3: the midfield against the team you've beaten the midfield three 252 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 3: weeks ago. And the half forwards who Jedbue's is not 253 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 3: the Jed Buws of a few years ago but would 254 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 3: have assisted in covering were many of the reasons Brisbane 255 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 3: won the game. So they tried to make a strength 256 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 3: biggest strength and to become a weakness. So clearly that 257 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 3: plays a part in it. It's not necessarily his fault, 258 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 3: but his structural input was negative, so you have to 259 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 3: criticize that. 260 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: And a couple of times, yeah, you do wander. If 261 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 2: jed Bu's being there might have just showed them up 262 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 2: a little bit defensively. But a couple of times Brisbane 263 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 2: got goals out the back and I thought if tom' 264 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: stewit were there with that goal of gone down. Now 265 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 2: that's not the reason why Geelong lost the game purely 266 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: because of the absence of one player, but I do 267 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: think he would have settled them down defensively a little 268 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 2: bit better. They look They looked young in defense on 269 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 2: the weekend, and. 270 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 3: I mean the really as much as the locking eel 271 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 3: inspirational goal sort of cell would like moment at the 272 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 3: same end of the ground in the third quarter felt 273 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 3: like a turning point. Then it was when Geelong got 274 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 3: a goal back early in the fourth They were down 275 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 3: by twenty one and then they have the bad turnover 276 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 3: right in front of goal. Was it rain and kicks? 277 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 3: That goal I would say gets Brisbane up by twenty seven. 278 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 3: At that point it was over over. So that was 279 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 3: the youth in an experience showing at a really important time. 280 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 2: That was the iconic moment of the Grand Final the 281 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 2: year before. I think the Joe Danaher goal, Yes, Jordan 282 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: de Goie goal a couple of years before that. Then 283 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 2: the Joe side Bottom or side bottom Joel Selwin in 284 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, so we always seem to get that 285 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 2: iconic goal. Melbourn had a lot of them in twenty 286 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 2: twenty one. What were some of the Jack did the 287 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 2: player ratings for Brisbane? I did the player ratings for Geelong. 288 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 2: We do player ratings for every final, but it does 289 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,359 Speaker 2: feel like the interest in player ratings goes up significantly 290 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 2: for a Grand Final four. It is it is the 291 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 2: most watch game of the season. The scrutiny is higher 292 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,079 Speaker 2: and more intense than ever. What was some of the 293 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 2: tougher player ratings or key player ratings that you had 294 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 2: to give out from a line's perspective. 295 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 4: Well, the Andrews one, I think is tough because we 296 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 4: don't tend to celebrate key defenders as much as we 297 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 4: should in terms of who we consider best on ground. Yeah, 298 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 4: Harris Andrews. I gave him eight. I think he could 299 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 4: argue he was maybe a nine. But I also thought 300 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 4: a big part of why Brisbane stood up was because 301 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 4: of Darcy Gardner, who he's not really with respective I'm 302 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 4: not considered a premier key defender, but he was like 303 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 4: one of those impenetrable walls back there on the day, 304 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 4: and I thought he was an eight as well, so 305 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 4: that's sort of offset Andrews. I also thought it was hard 306 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 4: to make calls on like someone like McCluggage who did 307 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 4: a lot of damage of late when maybe the game 308 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 4: was beyond doubt. The result was beyond doubt. It was 309 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 4: held well early, but he also had his moments, I thought, 310 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 4: and so guys like him and then Zach Bailey, who 311 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 4: initially it was sort of like, well, could this guy 312 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 4: have potentially cost them the ground file in terms of 313 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 4: how many times he missed hit three six in the end, 314 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 4: and again he kicked those three goals, maybe two of 315 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 4: them were again when the result was beyond doubt, So 316 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 4: you've got to it was hard to sort of measure 317 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 4: I guess when some of these acts took place when 318 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 4: the game was in dispute, and I thought, yeah, like, 319 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 4: that's why Neil I gave him eight, because he came 320 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 4: on and in that third quarter just really blitzed along 321 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 4: in the guts. And one of the things he spoke 322 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 4: about post game was that while he was nervous about 323 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 4: coming on and that risk of re injury. It was 324 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 4: also he's going to come on when the players are 325 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 4: you know, they played a half of footy, right, so 326 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 4: they're going to be fatigued to some degree. And he 327 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 4: really took a serious advantage of that. And probably the 328 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 4: other one was was Ashcroft. I like, yep, will Astrofs. 329 00:14:56,040 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 4: I gave him a NINEV was he was a seven? 330 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 4: Yeah again I thought he was. He was okay early, 331 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 4: but he really built into the game. So it was 332 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 4: those who are a few of the tough ones. Dan 333 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 4: Zorca as well was really influential. 334 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 2: Just on Zach Bailey. 335 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 3: First player since Stephen Kernahan in nineteen ninety three with 336 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 3: nine or more scores. 337 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 2: Yes, fine, yes, that's that's quite some effort and that's 338 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 2: and that's Stephen Kernahan is a permanent forward and Zach 339 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 2: Bailey's a he kicks out forward midfielder. 340 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 4: He would have been best on ground. I think he 341 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 4: had he kicked it. 342 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 2: Oh it's early, yeah, I think so. I gave Bailey 343 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 2: Smith a five. He had twenty nine disposals, really polarizing game. 344 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 2: He was busy and he tried, he was trying really 345 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 2: hard for him a lot, but at no stage did 346 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 2: you see him trademark Smith where he was, where he 347 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: was running and carrying. He still had three hundred ish 348 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 2: meters game, but he didn't have the same burst. He 349 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 2: wasn't out in space where he's doing his damage. So 350 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 2: it was a twenty nine disposal game, but a five 351 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 2: out of ten twenty nine disposal game. Max Holmes was eight. 352 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 2: In hindsight, that's probably a touch high. Again, like Smith, 353 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 2: probably didn't have that open space. But at the same time, 354 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 2: he still had niner and seven meters gained and thirty 355 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 2: three touches plus a goal that him or maybe Jack 356 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 2: Bow's who was Gelong's best e bose six and that 357 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 2: might have been unders Oli Dempse eyed at seven. 358 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 3: He felt the most dangerous. Yeah, he never didn't really 359 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 3: get enough. Both were we actually put the danger on 360 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 3: the scoreboard, but felt it. 361 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah, And he kicked and he kicked four 362 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 2: goals and three of them came in junk time in 363 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 2: the last quarter. I found Laws and Humphreys the probably 364 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: hardest cat to assess because he was excellent offensively like 365 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 2: and some of these one on one efforts were awesome 366 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 2: during during the game, but he also played on Charlie 367 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 2: Cameron who essentially broke the game open and took it 368 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 2: away from Geelong and that in that third quarter, which 369 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 2: is you had to have place a lot of emphasis 370 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 2: on that. So I gave him six, as did tom Akins. 371 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 2: He mentioned stoppages just beforehand. This was a massive stoppage game. 372 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 2: There's so many clearances in this game. So I think 373 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 2: that's why tom Akins's numbers might be slightly inflated. But 374 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 2: I do think that he played on did play on 375 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 2: Lashcroft for a fee bit of it, and Nashcroft won 376 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 2: the Norm Smith Medal and offensively Brisbane at the midfield 377 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 2: were a lot better. 378 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 3: Another number that points to the midfield dominance of the Lions. 379 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 3: All the problems of the Cats from Andrew wheel And 380 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 3: on Twitter, which was it was Geelong's worst game since 381 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 3: twenty twenty one. Worst first possession to clearance conversion rate, right, 382 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 3: so they got hands on the ball. It was only 383 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 3: a clearance fifty six percent of the time. It's the 384 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 3: twelfth worst for all teams over the last five seas. 385 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 2: Wow, which is so And you go back and watch 386 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 2: Couch last week and they pointed out how good Geelong's 387 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 2: percentage of first possession the clearance was yes exactly, which 388 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 2: is you know, credit to Brisbane as well the pressure 389 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 2: they applied there and there was no I had no quumbs. 390 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,159 Speaker 2: Just just pointing out this player rating. Quite remarkable that 391 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 2: Patrick Dangerfield literally played a ten out of ten game 392 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 2: against Hawthorne then plays a two out of ten game. 393 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 3: Him and Jeremycameron effectively. Jeremy Cameron's only one good act 394 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 3: for the day was when he had one arm. 395 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 2: Which year I gave him before four out of ten. 396 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 3: Basically for that I have inspirational completely blanketed and then 397 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 3: him not doing anything meant that Shannon Neil was even 398 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 3: more important. 399 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 2: But that's why I thought Harris Andrews. 400 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 3: Was so good, because Neil was completely blanketed all day. 401 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 3: So Geelong's Grand Finals after tell forwards no like you 402 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 3: have the Joe Danna her moment last year. But it's 403 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 3: a game for small forwards at this point, and I 404 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 3: think a lot of people were tipping Nonsmith based on that. 405 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 3: A lot of Gelong half forward selections manor. 406 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 2: Grime mis as mine. 407 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,239 Speaker 3: They were their sort of sexy dark horse tips. But 408 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 3: then they got shut down by Brisbane's half backs who 409 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 3: did an incredibly good job all day, offensively and defensively. 410 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 2: So as I mentioned there, jj off the top, these 411 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 2: two teams, you feel like they're not getting out of 412 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 2: premiership contention anytime soon. One because they're young, and two 413 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 2: because of who they might bring in during the upcoming 414 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,199 Speaker 2: off season. So from a Brisbane perspective, we know that 415 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 2: Sam Draper and Oscar Allen are keen to we'll not 416 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 2: only leave their own clubs but join the Lions. We've 417 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 2: known about that for several weeks now, and they're going 418 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 2: to get Dan Annibal as well on through the draft. 419 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 2: Their their top academy prospect. So they're not going away 420 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 2: anytime soon. No, No, certainly not. 421 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 4: And it's a scary proposition for the rest of the 422 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 4: league obviously that they may lose you know, Stacevich or 423 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 4: Archie to Rable Cops, but I think the talent coming 424 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 4: in outweighs that, and obviously Animal is just another way 425 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 4: that they're going to benefit from the you know, the 426 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 4: academy father son sort of route which which they've been 427 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 4: Like we've seen the development of Jasper Fletcher of and 428 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 4: more this year. I think he's just. 429 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 2: Like a like a superb big on him on that Saturday. Yeah, 430 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:28,199 Speaker 2: I was. 431 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 4: I think he was another one who I guess if 432 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 4: he looked at it more from a defensive intercept counter 433 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 4: punch perspective, was in amongst the best on ground sort 434 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 4: of conversation does it went back there as well? So 435 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 4: like they've got serious names, I think they've got a 436 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 4: genuine chance to to really catapult Brisbane into a dynasty 437 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 4: team because I'm of the belief that they've got to 438 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 4: win three Premierships for it to be considered a dynasty. 439 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 4: I think the fact that they've been in the finals 440 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 4: for seventh straight is great and it's a great measure 441 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 4: of how they've built under Fagan, But I think to 442 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 4: be considered a dynasty, you've got to win at least three, 443 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 4: and there's zero reason why they don't go into next 444 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 4: season favorites for that third. 445 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 3: It's interesting when you talk about this Lion's era, so 446 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 3: it's almost almost two eras it's the first one which 447 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 3: they built through the draft and academy guys like Harris 448 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 3: Andrews and the like, and then it's been the father 449 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 3: son editions. And it's not a criticism to point out 450 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 3: that they are the team that is best exploited both 451 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 3: ways of exploiting AFL list rules father Sons and Academy players. 452 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 3: The fact that they get both and have this incredible 453 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,719 Speaker 3: crop father Sons, it's something that no other team has 454 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 3: really had. 455 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 2: I mean Collingwood Sydney has to a certain extent, Nick Blake. 456 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 3: Lesser, but lesser, and then Collingwood gets Decos but both 457 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 3: of them both very good. But then Nnga Wise Quayner. 458 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 3: But that's sort of about it. So good on one side, 459 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 3: not elite on both sides. They've got superstars from both avenues. 460 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 3: Dual Nornsith Medal is at twenty one one of them. 461 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 2: It's crazy. 462 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 3: So that's why they're going to be able to stay 463 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 3: up and continue what's already been an incredibly good period 464 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 3: for them. 465 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 2: And from a geelong perspective, they are in that supposedly 466 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 2: in the hunt for Charlie Colonel. We'll talk a little 467 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 2: bit more about Colonel a bit later, but link to 468 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 2: rowand Marshall, who's got one year left to a sin Kilda deal. 469 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 2: MAXI Marshall probably not too keen. It sounds like to 470 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 2: play with Tom Dakoney in the same side. Despite the 471 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 2: success that he had with Paddy Ryder several years ago. Marshall, 472 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 2: now closer to thirty, probably wants to be that the 473 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 2: number one ruck did. What happened on Saturday pull you 474 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 2: more in the direction that Geelong really needs rolland Marshall 475 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 2: right now to an extent. 476 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 3: But they've been very, very good for a while without 477 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 3: a dominant ruckman. So it's I am growing more and 478 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 3: more to the belief that it is a poor allocation 479 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 3: of resources to spend above average on a ruckman. It 480 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 3: can work, It worked with Max Gorn, but Brisbane's Britain 481 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 3: Sam Draper, which is bizarre because Darcy Fort is a 482 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 3: dual premiership ruckman for them. 483 00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 2: It is nuts to think about it. 484 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 3: And then then you're paying Sam Draper, who is also 485 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 3: injury prone in the same way that you feared Fort 486 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 3: and Oskar Mackinnernie have bit. So that's risky and the 487 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 3: only risk for Brisbane going forward. The only reason they 488 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 3: would come back down is teams both bidding huge amounts 489 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 3: for their star players and luring them out like Zach 490 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 3: Bailey or forcing Brisbane to pay overs, or they're making 491 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 3: mistakes like paying a lot for a ruckman. 492 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 2: So either way it's risky. 493 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 3: I can understand it from Gelong's perspective because Marshall, I 494 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 3: don't think he's going to completely break their cap and 495 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 3: they're in a reasonably good spot, yeah enough to fit him, 496 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 3: but they're not getting him and Kerno And as you said, 497 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 3: we'll discuss that later on because it's a good one. 498 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 2: It is a weird one. Would James Warp will help 499 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 2: Geelong's midfield in any way or is this just a 500 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 2: squad depth kind of play. 501 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 4: He seems like a potentially like a it's hard for 502 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 4: me to say dangerfield type, but he's sort of got 503 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 4: that bit of a poor man yeah, to be like 504 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 4: a bit of a breakaway, explosive sort of guy in 505 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 4: the midfield. And I think that's more of like a 506 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 4: future play once Danger is gone. Think he's that He's 507 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 4: he's probably the yin to the yang of you know, 508 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 4: your Holmes and Smith in terms of, yeah, you have 509 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 4: the outsider run. So Geelong fixed what was previously seen 510 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 4: as a weakness in terms of their speed in the 511 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 4: engine room with Max, with Max Holmes and with Balie Smith. 512 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 4: But you still don't need that sort of second big 513 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 4: body to I guess maybe helping Atkins and and to 514 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 4: I guess tied through and be some depth. I guess 515 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 4: once once Dangew's not longer in that because we saw 516 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 4: once the finals began that he got thrust straight back 517 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 4: in there and his importance in the midfield was so crucial. 518 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 4: So I think that would be a helpful vision for 519 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 4: them and Kerno. I think that's obviously gonna be the 520 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 4: big one. I think that's also a future play post 521 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 4: post Cameron as he as he wipes down. 522 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 3: I think if Warpole was at the Catch this year, 523 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 3: he would have played over Dye Clark. 524 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 2: Yes, in the grad vial. 525 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 3: Yes, So it's an upgrade. It's an upgrade for the 526 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 3: for the now and for the future. So like that's 527 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 3: an understandable. 528 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 2: Sign it's now time for this and now. 529 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: On the Fox Footy Podcast, another strong edition of Australia's 530 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: favorite segment, Fair or Fast. 531 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 2: Yes, a player movement theme Fear or Fast. 532 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 3: It's finally time to talk about trade guys for the 533 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 3: first time in eleven months. 534 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 2: Yes, Max, the pendulum has swung in the zach Merritt 535 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 2: situation Fair or Fast? 536 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 3: Well, by definition, don't pendulums continue to swing the point of. 537 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 2: It's evenly so constantly swung back here to towards him 538 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 2: staying at Essendon. 539 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 3: Staying in okay Ah, I think I don't feel any 540 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 3: different than I did about it a week ago. To 541 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 3: be honest, I think I'm going to say fast. I 542 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: understand that Andrew Welsh comes out in his first real 543 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 3: media appearance after becoming a Essennon president, which that geez, 544 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 3: that happened quickly he did with Dave Barram stepping down, 545 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 3: but he's sort of just stepping down to make sure 546 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 3: that his guy is in charge instead of getting overthrown. 547 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 3: He comes out and says, no, we're not trading him. 548 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 3: He's going to be at the club next year. But 549 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 3: that's the same thing Essendon has been saying for weeks, 550 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 3: so that I don't really put a huge amount into that. 551 00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 3: I think if he's going to really force his way 552 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 3: out and fall Thorne comes to the table with a 553 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 3: good enough offer, I think they'll end up having to 554 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,199 Speaker 3: take it. So I would lean him leaving. But it 555 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 3: is still a very hard one, not the hardest one 556 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 3: on the board, but one of the harder ones to 557 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 3: get done. 558 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 2: What do you think is the hardest to get done? 559 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,199 Speaker 3: Clono to Geelong specifically, which seems like the number one 560 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 3: option for both Colono and now for Geelong. You had 561 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 3: Andrew Mackie coming on Sunday and actually saying, yeah, well, 562 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 3: you know, it's on Carlton to figure out what the 563 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 3: price is going to be and whether they're willing to 564 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 3: do it. So that's really hard. 565 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 2: So on that note, then Jack Sydney looks like Charlie 566 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 2: Curno's best chance of leaving Carlton fair or fas. 567 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's fair. I think if Sidney or 568 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 4: As it seems they might be willing to offer two 569 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 4: first round picks and maybe a Will Hayward type, that's 570 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 4: probably That looks like the likeliest way that he gets 571 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 4: out of Carlton, and it seems like he's dead set 572 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 4: on getting out of Carlton. Then we see Bailey Smith 573 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 4: on Instagram teasing you know still that it sounds like 574 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 4: Curno is very much in play for Gelong. It's and 575 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 4: I you know, someone like Andrew Mackie and Stephen Wells 576 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 4: like they're the last people I doubt to still manage 577 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 4: to get a deal done for Curno. But that does 578 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 4: look like the harder of the two options. It's it's 579 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 4: a matter of how desperately Curno wants to get to 580 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 4: Sydney or whether he's happy to sort of stay in 581 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 4: the Victoria sort of sphere, but often the side sort 582 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 4: of how Bailey has in moving across a geelong dangerfield too. Yeah, 583 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 4: it's interesting, I think, but Sydney would be I guess 584 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 4: number one in terms of the ease with which it 585 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 4: gets done. If Carlton are satisfied by you know, the 586 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 4: two firsts and a Hayward type, do you. 587 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 2: Think that's fair for Carlton. I wouldn't be thrilled to 588 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: accept that. Of val was Carlton, I would. 589 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 4: Be pushing for more than Hayward. I'm not like the 590 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:50,679 Speaker 4: Biggs rap on Hayward. 591 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 3: I think is maybe that a a favorable pick swap 592 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 3: or something gets you close, like a player like Oli 593 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 3: Floren's got named as well, and they discussion. 594 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 4: I think that's even harsh to be to say less appealing. 595 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 4: But I think they're in the same level in terms 596 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 4: of players who don't really move the needle. 597 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: Hayward moves more than I think so. 598 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 4: But then again, a lot of what Voss has said 599 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 4: this year is that Carten needs speed and position coming 600 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 4: out of the back half. The name I think of 601 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 4: immediately when I hear that, when I hear those sorts 602 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 4: of traits are blaky and obviously it's going to be 603 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 4: near impossible to try and pray him out as part 604 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 4: of that kind of trade. But that's the kind of 605 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 4: name I'd be looking for. 606 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 2: Riley Bissle. It could start of the year, yeah, dropped off. 607 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,719 Speaker 3: Maybe if Carvin's recruiters stopped watching games at about round eleven, 608 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 3: maybe they'll accept that one. 609 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 2: Maybe Max in order into sin Kilda's salary cap is 610 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 2: much needed. 611 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 3: Faver or fast they are, I can't believe that. You know, 612 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,719 Speaker 3: they're major sponsors. What's the bloody safety brand they're sponsored by. 613 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 3: They're clearly clearly you know, all of those high viz 614 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 3: vests that I see some Kilda players wearing, it's very 615 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 3: clear that they are paying them under the no they're not. Yeah, 616 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 3: it's it's crazy that they're now suddenly offering what Sam 617 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 3: Flanders four point five million yeap over five years. 618 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 2: That was probably we, I think in general, when we 619 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 2: heard that they'd re signed NAS for two million, Tom 620 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,640 Speaker 2: Daconing for what Ralphie report on the weekend one point 621 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 2: six y five million per season, also getting in Jack Sylvanney. 622 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 2: But I think when we heard the Sam Flanders dollars 623 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 2: that were banned around on Grand Final eve, of course, 624 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,360 Speaker 2: of course that's the that's always today when these kinds 625 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 2: of numbers come out. Yeah, I think there was probably 626 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 2: probably caught the AFL community off guard, thinking how the 627 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 2: heck are they doing this? 628 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 3: Look, I'm sure they have not paid a huge amount, 629 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 3: they have not paid the full cap. I don't know 630 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 3: exactly how the cap rules work. I don't think you 631 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 3: can bank that much space that you can suddenly bring 632 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 3: in like four players on a well above average wage. 633 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 4: But all this time we've been talking about Saint Kilda 634 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 4: not being able to hand a big fish. So who 635 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 4: were they really paying like a massive bucks to prize. 636 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 3: But there's a salary floor as well, Right, you've got 637 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 3: to be paying a minimum amount, so they can't have 638 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 3: that much space to add what four million dollars worth 639 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 3: of players next year. There was no world in which 640 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 3: their cap was that open. You would think, hey, maybe 641 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 3: it was, and they would know their numbers better than 642 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 3: I would, But it seems preposterous to think that you 643 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 3: would suddenly have that much space available. 644 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 2: Maybe it is, Maybe. 645 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 3: That's exactly what they've worked out in their geniuses. 646 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 2: Would you be paying nine hundred thousand dollars a year 647 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 2: for Sam Flanners there? Jack, It's probably not just. 648 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 4: But at the same time, I don't think he's been 649 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 4: played in his best role. 650 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 3: No. 651 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 4: At Gold Coast. I think there was a period there 652 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 4: a year or two ago where he'd sort of found 653 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 4: a really good role and as Stuart jew yes, yes 654 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 4: he's playing off half back and he was playing in 655 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 4: the midfielder. I don't think he's a I don't think 656 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 4: he's a half forward player. I think he's a distributor. 657 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 4: He's probably more of an outside type than inside. But 658 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 4: if you get him around the ball and in a 659 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 4: spotwreck can slingshot, I think that's probably his best role. 660 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 4: And if they can get him playing that sort of footy, 661 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 4: then he could live up to that sort of price tag. 662 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 3: Well, clearly this is how secutors getting their money. If 663 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 3: media reporting Sekulta has signed Fiji as a partner for 664 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,239 Speaker 3: the next three years in a landmark deal, no plan 665 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 3: to play games there, which is. 666 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 2: Disappointed that would hold off games before the Saints a 667 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: good junket. 668 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 3: If they're going to start selling games to Fiji, I 669 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 3: would be volunteering. 670 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 2: It's only five hours from lovely Water. No, I was 671 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 2: thinking that. 672 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 3: Well, I think the island right, like just the government. 673 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 3: I just think of that, Yeah. 674 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: Which is from Fiji? You are correct? 675 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 3: Or I've drank water and Fiji before. I have no 676 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 3: memories of it. It was probably probably hydrated me though. 677 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 2: That's hopefully Jack Judd McPhee Judd mcveee would be a 678 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 2: bigger loss to Melbourne than Christian Petrarca fair or fast. 679 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 4: That's a that's a good one. 680 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 3: It's the tracker, by the way, has flown into Adelaide 681 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: to that. 682 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 2: Has he really has been seen the Adelaide TV networks 683 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 2: have a field day. 684 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 3: Josh Money at the that airport where all I can 685 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 3: see is Jack Gunvan walking past that hoarding. 686 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 2: Now it's got Petruca. It's actually a really bad airport 687 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 2: to sneak into because you have to every gate at 688 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 2: Adelaide Airport you have to go up the ramp, the 689 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 2: long ramp, so it's always a long walkers up the 690 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 2: gate point of the return sort of yep, has did 691 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 2: and then yes, as we know with the Jack Guinarvan 692 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 2: doorstop there, it is a very wide open area just 693 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 2: outside the terminal there because with the subway the cars 694 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 2: are a long way away from the front of the 695 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 2: terminal there, there's a lot of open space to get seen. 696 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 2: So he hasn't played cards right here, Christian. 697 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 3: But in positive news that airport is connected via public 698 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 3: transport to the city, imagine that. 699 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 2: Yes, anyway, digress, jud McVeigh would be a bigger loss 700 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 2: for Melbourne than Christian Petrarca. 701 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 4: I still think it's a face, but I think it's 702 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 4: it's closer than we probably would like to think. Yeah, 703 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 4: I think Christian would be highly motivated to play his 704 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 4: best footy in an environment where he feels like there's 705 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 4: a more cohesion and better chance of success. And I 706 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 4: think there's every chance that that's at Adelaide. But yeah, 707 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 4: so I still think what he can do, what is 708 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 4: capable of doing at his best is is still more 709 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 4: valuable than what mcvee can provide. But in saying that, 710 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 4: mcvee has really sort of under the radar, been a 711 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 4: really handy player in the back half for Melbourne when 712 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 4: he's been healthy, and I think this has the potential 713 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 4: to be for Freemantle, the bear the fruits in the 714 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 4: same sort of way that they have with Jordan Clark, 715 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 4: who's risen to all austrailing levels. Not the same sort 716 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 4: of players speed wise, but sort of one of those 717 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 4: mid size interceptors, sort of like you think of Jasper Fletcher. 718 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 4: That's sort of rangey athleticism. So I really like it 719 00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 4: for Fremantle, but I still think Christian is the better player. 720 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 3: The loss of McVeigh for Melbourne is the type of 721 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 3: loss that makes a club's list slowly bleed out right 722 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 3: because it's the young player coming into their prime. You 723 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 3: trade him for what a high second round pick late first. 724 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 3: If you miss on that pick, that's just a big 725 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 3: step backwards, and maybe not a huge step backwards, but enough. 726 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 2: And then if they. 727 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 3: Accumulate and accumulate, you lose all your young depth, and 728 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 3: then you've lost a core that can bring you back 729 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 3: to contention. 730 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 2: Will Forcus from our Fox Sports website has been big 731 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 2: on and leading the Christian Petrarca to Adelaide links first 732 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 2: to report that last week it feels like if he's 733 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 2: landing in Adelaide, it feels like it's that's gaining some momentum. 734 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 3: His report suggested that Petraka was willing to discuss the. 735 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 2: Idea and warm into it. 736 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, flying to Adelaide suggests you're more than warming. 737 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 2: Pretty hot mastics. The AFL has finally struck a nice 738 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 2: balance with its bidding system changes fair or fast. 739 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 3: Fair, contingent on exact what they end up being. From 740 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 3: what I've seen, I like them. So it's weird that, 741 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 3: first of all, it's with that they're changing them again 742 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 3: when we haven't even had the rule changes that they've 743 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,760 Speaker 3: already implemented used once. Because they've got a different bidding 744 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 3: system with the points table this year, which seems to 745 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 3: be a bit more fair. But it sounds like from 746 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 3: what they've reported and various outlets, that you can only 747 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 3: match a bid using two picks from next year presumably, 748 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 3: And I think looking at the numbers, that would mean 749 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 3: to match a bid at pick one you would need 750 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 3: something like five and eleven, which is going to be 751 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 3: very very hard to get if you're, for example, Carlton 752 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 3: next year trying to match a bid for Cody Walker. Yes, 753 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 3: a pick one contender, maybe one who's based. 754 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 2: On ground in the under seventeen Futures game on Grand 755 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 2: Fom Dames for Team Boke or for can't remember to 756 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 2: be honest, but I know we had twenty seven and 757 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 2: a lot of clearances. Marlon Neo Cleus Neocles, Yeah, great name. 758 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 2: Dukie Cochran is also very good. Neo was there? 759 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 3: Yes, spending time I'll played in under seventeen's football exciting, Well. 760 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 2: Max, isn't it all we want? 761 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 4: We want clubs to be using the best picks to. 762 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 2: Paying full price. We do. 763 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 3: And when if your Carlton next year, I think there's 764 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 3: a good chance one of their picks naturally is either 765 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 3: five or eleven, probably close to eleven, but it could 766 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 3: be five. But that means they've got to trade something 767 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 3: of real value to get a top ten pick to 768 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 3: match that bid. So that's exactly what you want. And 769 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 3: I think the drop down to pick two would be 770 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 3: closer to like you need eight and twelve. Yep, maybe 771 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 3: that sounds about right. And I like that pick one 772 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:30,879 Speaker 3: is particularly hard to matt a bid on because that's 773 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:34,320 Speaker 3: the one you look at the just how it looks optically, 774 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 3: and getting pick one when you were not when you 775 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 3: were a premiership contender is unfair. So if it's much 776 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 3: harder to do that another Jamara type situation. 777 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 2: Is this the thing? So we haven't seen a player 778 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 2: attract a bid at pick one since Jamara, so there's 779 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 2: a will Ashkoff did was probably the best player in 780 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 2: his draft class, but the Giant said, no, we've traded 781 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 2: up to pick one Aaron Cadman, you are our guy, 782 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,280 Speaker 2: and they picked Aaron Cadman and Ashkroff got a bid 783 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 2: at pick two. So this is Whereos and Dake well 784 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 2: somehow Dakos went to pick Sam Sandarsi is obviously a 785 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 2: young star, but Sam Darsi got a bid before Nick 786 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 2: Daekos Darcy at two, Dekos at four. So the clubs 787 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 2: have used the pick one as a bit of a 788 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 2: statement you're our guy in the past with the changes 789 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 2: in the bidding system, and maybe because the maybe because 790 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 2: the bidding system hasn't allowed itself in the past for 791 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 2: clubs to truly pay value, so clubs sort of don't 792 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:31,760 Speaker 2: really care. 793 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 3: In the past if you were making Collingwood match the 794 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 3: bid on Dacos or Brisbane on Ashcroft, I think they 795 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 3: matched it with like five picks in the thirties FORTI. 796 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 2: It's been I think you might have done the tweet 797 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 2: on what Brisbane used to match the will Ashkroff bid, 798 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 2: and that's been quote retweeted a lot in recent times. 799 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 3: It's absurd and so it was almost pointless to do 800 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,720 Speaker 3: it at the time. But the problem with the system 801 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 3: at its core is that you're forcing one club to 802 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 3: act on the behalf of all seventeen who are not 803 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 3: getting the player, and they are not necessarily incentivized to 804 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 3: do that when they have their own reasons for picking player, 805 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,320 Speaker 3: giving them the Pick one honor, giving them the bonus 806 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 3: you get like ten grand, twenty grand from NAB. They 807 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 3: want to say, so there are reasons to pick your player, 808 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 3: and just hey, we're confident in you, we want to 809 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 3: believe in you. So it will negate that somewhat. And 810 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 3: also if the AFL could actually make clubs just stop. 811 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 3: I don't know if they're shaking hands on the tables 812 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 3: or what. But you've had some weird bids in the past. 813 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 2: There has been some, Yeah, it has been some weird 814 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 2: bids that have come in interesting times in the draft. 815 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 2: And Jack just a slightly Richmond slanted question for Richmond 816 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 2: fans out there after last year's Megal Hall. The Tigers 817 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 2: now have the flexibility to target needs at the top 818 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 2: end of this year's draft rather than best available, fair 819 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 2: or fast. 820 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 4: No, I would say I would say fast. I think 821 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 4: they're still in a spot where you need to take 822 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 4: the very best players that are there, especially with two 823 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 4: picks that are going to be inside of the top four. 824 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:01,760 Speaker 4: I think the whole of it Richmond got last November 825 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,319 Speaker 4: is going to be is going to to be very, 826 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:08,919 Speaker 4: very good. But I don't think you can sit back 827 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 4: just after that and be like, oh, now we can start, 828 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 4: you know, pinpointing defenders or or whatever else, like outside midfielders. 829 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 4: You know. I still think they've got to go and 830 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 4: target the very best players available. 831 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 3: Is this a draft where you would be able to 832 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 3: target positional needs you have to reach? 833 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 2: Not really like so for instance, Richmond has picked, we'll 834 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 2: probably have pick three, So three and three and four, 835 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 2: three and four after with Oscar Allen, we're assuming getting 836 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 2: picked two Compo back for West Coast. The problem is 837 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 2: that the top six of the top six players in 838 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 2: the draft rank and I'm pretty certain that most clubs 839 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 2: have a top six and there's a maybe a bit 840 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 2: of a gap after that. Four of them are already 841 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 2: club tied. Dan Annible at Brisbane, two sons Ezekiullin and 842 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 2: Dylan Patterson. And there's I think a school thought now 843 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 2: that Harry Dean, the Carlton father son, he's in that 844 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 2: top six bracket now. He's the best defender of them, 845 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 2: He's the best key defender in there. There's a guy 846 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 2: called Sullivan Roby who is I think the biggest draft 847 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 2: bolt since Clayton Oliver. Oliver went up all out to 848 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 2: three or four I think over ten years ago. Now. 849 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 2: He's come from the clouds for the Eastern Range, has 850 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 2: played an incredible Grand Final for you years ago, sorry 851 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago. Rather so there is he 852 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:29,439 Speaker 2: could be maybe pushing that top six now. But there's 853 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 2: a chance that Richmond if that is the case, and 854 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 2: it never really pans out where ranking is equal what 855 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 2: happens on draft night. But Richmond is not getting pick seven. 856 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 3: So what yes, what you're saying is despite having as 857 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 3: it stands, picks two and three, they would miss out 858 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,280 Speaker 3: on the top six players who are the clear top. 859 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 2: Six well, and as it stands it depends they might 860 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 2: have control. Back to that discussion around making statements with 861 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 2: the picks that you have not bidding right, So West 862 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 2: Coast will likely have picked one and two. Some some 863 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 2: would say that zeke Yulin might be the be the 864 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 2: best player in it. Some clubs would have them at 865 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 2: the top of their draft board. But it's hard to 866 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:17,240 Speaker 2: see West Coast saying to Kooper, duff Tyler or William Durzman. 867 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 2: I think dur moves probably regarded the number one play 868 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 2: on the rankings at the moment. Some would say duff 869 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 2: Tyler as well, but I think I think. 870 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,320 Speaker 3: Has had a more consistency. 871 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 2: The rock forward. Yeah, whose two dred centimate is really 872 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 2: good size, But yeah, it's hard to see them saying 873 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 2: to those guys, and we're going to be bidding on 874 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 2: zeke Ulan. So those two are the best two that 875 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 2: aren't in the natural draft, Yeah, the best every chance. 876 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 4: The West Coast. West Coast takes both those two players 877 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 4: and Richmond. 878 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 2: Just well yeah, or do West Coast bid on someone 879 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:51,839 Speaker 2: to themselves. 880 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 3: Which again is the problem with the system, whether you 881 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,320 Speaker 3: are relying on West Coast to do something that doesn't 882 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 3: really benefit them. 883 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,760 Speaker 2: At all, which is what North Melbourne did a few 884 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 2: years ago. Did they I think they took Colby mckircher 885 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 2: at pick two, sounds right on, Jed Walter pick three, 886 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 2: then took Zaye dursm a pick four. 887 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 4: Yes, so they could take West Coast could take who 888 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 4: they want a crown as a number one, pick the 889 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 4: number one, and then at number two they could maybe 890 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 4: throw a couple of bits out there. 891 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, potentially, Yeah, they did so went a couple of 892 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 2: years ago. Harley read Cobby mccircher, Jed Walter, Zay durs 893 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 2: So they could do. But the Tigers could do something 894 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 2: like that if they want to. 895 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 3: That'll be fair because then you get the honor of 896 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:32,720 Speaker 3: pick one, all the all the benefits, all the reasons 897 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 3: you need to pick a pick one and then go 898 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 3: from there. So that'd be interesting. We've actually got a 899 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 3: West Coast related question in the mail bag. Mailbag only 900 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 3: question for the mail Bag this week, just a brief whateveryone. 901 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 3: Still it's Mad Monday for the listeners as well. Yes, 902 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 3: as we know, and Don asks should the West Coast 903 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 3: Eagles change their deal offered to Brandon Stasvich or scrap 904 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 3: it all together? 905 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 2: I did think about asking this as an ancillary question 906 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 2: as part of the top of the segment when you 907 00:41:55,719 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 2: mentioned Brandon Starsavich, But it was hard as unfortunate as 908 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 2: was it was hard not to have that in your 909 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,359 Speaker 2: head when you saw Brandon Stasovich on the bench during 910 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:05,959 Speaker 2: that third quarter. 911 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 3: West Coast offering him six years, we believe, which is 912 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 3: a lot for a guy who was already a concussion 913 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 3: away from being in big trouble. 914 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 2: And he had that concussion on the weekend whether and 915 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 2: it's intangible how that is measured in the end and 916 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 2: the effect that it has on him, But it was 917 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 2: hard not to think of that when he was on 918 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 2: the bench. JJ he has the option of staying at 919 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 2: Brisbane on a shorter term deal, but West Coast's offer 920 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 2: back to his homestate of wa is clearly more appealing. 921 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 4: I think West Coast have seriously considered that offer, yeah, 922 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 4: like seriously considerate. And but in another way, it's like 923 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:48,400 Speaker 4: West Coast could have could have still offered that deal 924 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 4: knowing that he was one concussion away, because. 925 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 3: They have changed the rules around payouts, so they would 926 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 3: it tapers off after a couple of years, but they 927 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 3: wouldn't lose all of that money if he had to 928 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 3: medically retire next year. 929 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,719 Speaker 4: For example, yeah, right, but they'd still be losing a 930 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 4: decent amount of money if say he signed and then 931 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 4: he gets concussed again at some stage next year and 932 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 4: he's forced to medically retire. 933 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:13,719 Speaker 3: An issue they know well that have multiple players, Yes, 934 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 3: medically retired. 935 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 4: Yes, So it's a serious like I think most people 936 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 4: would have thought the same thing when he when that 937 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,760 Speaker 4: did happen, and I think they would, like six years 938 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 4: already before that concussion seemed like a pretty almost audacious 939 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 4: sort of deal for someone with a history that you 940 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,440 Speaker 4: probably can't really bank on, especially with concussion. 941 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 3: Now that's the tax of West Coast being bad for 942 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 3: almost half a decade, Now, is it not that you've 943 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 3: got to pay that, You've got to offer that security 944 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 3: to get guys out of the dual premiership team. 945 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 4: And the other part of it is sounds like West 946 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,240 Speaker 4: Coast have already been denied their request of potentially landing 947 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 4: Start Savage to not dilute. 948 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 3: The free agency compo for Elf Scrawlen. 949 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 4: Right, So if they if assuming that's not getting over 950 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 4: the line, then that might also factor into their considerations 951 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 4: in offering such a deal that's going to dilute their 952 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,440 Speaker 4: their compound. Then you might get a player who may 953 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 4: only playing not even a third of that deal. 954 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 3: So that whole system also confuses me because I saw 955 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 3: that report and then someone suggesting, oh, well, instead they'll 956 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 3: try and trade for him. Why would they be able 957 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 3: to trade for him if he's a free agent. I 958 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 3: don't understand how that would even be an option. 959 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 2: It's an odd one. 960 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 3: Maybe I'm misunderstanding the report, or. 961 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, because they're already because they're. 962 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:35,399 Speaker 4: Getting so that that can match, So then that would 963 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 4: force a trade situation. 964 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 3: So like just basically what happened with Jeremy Cameron, I 965 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 3: think did the Giants officially match or at least threatened 966 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:42,520 Speaker 3: the Giants are? 967 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, either, but Jeremy Cameron was ultimately traded as 968 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 2: a free agent. Yeah, I need to read the rules. 969 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 3: But whish these rules, these rules were more obviously, I 970 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 3: don't think it seems weird that someone could be literally 971 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,760 Speaker 3: a free agent and yet you can trade them without 972 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 3: having signed them. 973 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's what can happen though, and that would 974 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 2: by trading them that would avoid the dilution of the 975 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:05,439 Speaker 2: free agent. 976 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,440 Speaker 3: So theoretically West Coast would trade. 977 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 2: Like the third round pick. 978 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 4: Yes, Brisbane, Yeah, isn't that a win win for both parties. 979 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,480 Speaker 3: I mean, it's a pick that West Coast doesn't get 980 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,719 Speaker 3: to use, and and but they get the better pick. 981 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 3: So yes, it would it would end up being a 982 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 3: win in a shallow draft. 983 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,200 Speaker 2: I think it's a massive win that West Coast would 984 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 2: have to give give up a later pick. Brisbane might 985 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 2: be able to use a one of those later picks 986 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 2: to help them with a Dan Animal bid potentially. 987 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 4: So this is the thing, right, So we're talking about 988 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 4: West Coast having picks one and two. If if they 989 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 4: signed Sassovich, their compo is going to be diluted. Are 990 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:42,359 Speaker 4: they still going to get picked if. 991 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 2: He signs as a free agent, it would be diluted. 992 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 3: So they would not get picked too if they signed 993 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 3: him as a free agent. 994 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 2: That's like, so. 995 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,719 Speaker 4: That's an incredibly drastic swing for a club like West 996 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 4: Coast who needs the first two picks. Yeah, it's I 997 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 4: think that's actually a low like a low key big storyline. 998 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:03,080 Speaker 4: I think because if you're Coast and now, especially given 999 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 4: its star, to choose a player and you're hoping to 1000 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 4: bank on him as a long term player, but again 1001 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 4: he's he's had a concussion issue, so I mean. 1002 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 3: You added to the risk profile, don't you You added 1003 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 3: to the pinch. 1004 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 4: Surely the Eagles would be then trying to think of 1005 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 4: a way that can do a trade deal. 1006 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, they wouldn't. 1007 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 3: As Benzai, I think it would favor the lines in 1008 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,879 Speaker 3: the end, So that makes sense to be honest. There 1009 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 3: is a chance that starts of it suffering that concussion 1010 00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,880 Speaker 3: helps Brisbane because it makes him more likely to stay 1011 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 3: because West Coast are the reason. 1012 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 2: Willing to offer that. 1013 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 3: And if their offer is not six years and it's 1014 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,680 Speaker 3: say four, and the gap is not so big, maybe 1015 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 3: he just goes, well, I'll stay and try and win 1016 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 3: another flag, and then he's a pretty damn key defender 1017 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:43,480 Speaker 3: for them. 1018 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 2: Very important. I think he said it well. I think 1019 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,800 Speaker 2: it's a low key, big storyline as well. 1020 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,319 Speaker 4: One that not many would really care keeps about unless 1021 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:52,839 Speaker 4: you're a fan of other team. 1022 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,600 Speaker 3: But the intricacies of the trade people, I. 1023 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,279 Speaker 4: Think it's very it's very it's a very curious one. 1024 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,040 Speaker 2: That is the end of fear of Face and the 1025 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 2: mail bag. Just maybe one before we wrap up which team, 1026 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:09,240 Speaker 2: because the frenzy period opens on Friday and trade period 1027 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 2: next Monday, and we'll be doing a couple of trade 1028 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 2: shows during the trade period here on the Fox Free Podcast. 1029 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 2: Which team needs to win the trade period or needs 1030 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:22,439 Speaker 2: to try and desperately needs to come out of trade 1031 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 2: period as a winner rather than a loser. You know, 1032 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:28,120 Speaker 2: Richmond's I think, is going to be a team that 1033 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 2: is not going to have much say in the trade 1034 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 2: period at all. Seems like they're going to be very 1035 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 2: very quiet. Is sin Kilda that that team? 1036 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 3: Well, they have put the urgency upon themselves with their plan, 1037 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 3: which we like. We likely they're being aggressive, but they 1038 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 3: are now putting the others in the situation where they're 1039 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 3: going to get all these guys and it's going to 1040 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 3: cost them quite a bit. And if they're bad next year, 1041 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 3: or if they're even pedestrian where everyone's going to go, 1042 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 3: well that was a bit of a waste, wasn't it. 1043 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 3: We'll see how it pans out. But they put themselves 1044 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:56,359 Speaker 3: in a risk position. For me, it's the teams who 1045 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 3: are who should be better than they are but aren't. 1046 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 3: So I'm looking Culton. So Carlton's decision on Kerno is 1047 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 3: enormous if they trade him, and it seems like they 1048 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:08,359 Speaker 3: are desperate not to they have to get something that 1049 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:12,080 Speaker 3: makes their fans at least understand why they're willing to relent, 1050 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 3: because the fan base is already not thrilled. Michaelvoss is 1051 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,319 Speaker 3: already going on the hot seat next year, and he 1052 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 3: has no reason to want to trade away Kurno and 1053 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:21,320 Speaker 3: get worse next year. 1054 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 2: Because then he's keep his job is in the same ballpark. 1055 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,799 Speaker 3: Then, yes, but they are not at least they weren't 1056 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:29,839 Speaker 3: supposed to be flag contenders this year, and they theoretically 1057 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:31,440 Speaker 3: have a long term plan, a long term plan that's 1058 00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 3: getting disrupted by trading away Zach Merritt because he's the 1059 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 3: superstar that helps the young guys get to that level 1060 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 3: along with him. 1061 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 2: But it is still enormous for them. 1062 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 3: If if they can make the case a lot easier, 1063 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,239 Speaker 3: if you trade Merit and say, hey, we're going to 1064 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 3: go to the draft for the two three years, we're 1065 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 3: going to be really good. Once Satazy comes in in 1066 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 3: twenty twenty eight, twenty nine, we're going to be contenders. 1067 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:54,320 Speaker 3: You can at least prosecute the argument to your fans, 1068 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 3: even if they are pretty impatient. 1069 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 4: Understandably, So, what are you, jj I think makes you 1070 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:00,120 Speaker 4: make a good point about Saint Cold. They've taken and 1071 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 4: all the pressure off themselves early by almost convincing his 1072 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:05,920 Speaker 4: players or his joint so we sort of re know 1073 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 4: what their plans are. It's more now how those players 1074 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 4: all meshed together the next year. I think it's more 1075 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:16,359 Speaker 4: about teams like carl and Sydney. Sydney with a team 1076 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:22,919 Speaker 4: that we thought last offseason didn't do enough, I guess 1077 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 4: following their Grand Final loss, and then that sort of 1078 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 4: played out this year while some of their guns are 1079 00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 4: out so we didn't they didn't sort of make them 1080 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:35,440 Speaker 4: moves after they lost a Grand Final necessary to then 1081 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 4: sort of, I guess have enough list turnover to put 1082 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,399 Speaker 4: themselves back in a conversation this year. And I think 1083 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,399 Speaker 4: Kurno is what could really put them over the top 1084 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 4: because we've long talked about their forwards being middling and 1085 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 4: not being real needle movers, and Kurno I think is 1086 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 4: a needle mover given the supply he'd get in that 1087 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 4: forward line. So they're a big one and Cartler are 1088 00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,840 Speaker 4: a big one. Geelong low key, but that's why Kerno 1089 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,040 Speaker 4: sort of ties those three together in one in one 1090 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:07,160 Speaker 4: this trade period. Obviously, Hawthorne as well, you sense and 1091 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 4: need that extreme midfielder put them over the top. Obviously 1092 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,480 Speaker 4: they didn't have will Day, but you add Zach Merritt 1093 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,080 Speaker 4: and a healthy will Day next year and Jesus can 1094 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 4: certainly they're right behind Wrisbe in terms of flag contention. 1095 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:18,360 Speaker 2: They're already I. 1096 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,800 Speaker 3: Think like second favorites and like the betting markets because 1097 00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 3: which it's completely understandable from my perspective. The other one, 1098 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,120 Speaker 3: the Bulldogs, they need to do something. They need to 1099 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 3: have some sort of defensive changes, whether it's list or tactical, 1100 00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,399 Speaker 3: ideally both they need to do something, and it seems 1101 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:34,080 Speaker 3: like they're not getting anyone right now. Well, they want 1102 00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:36,280 Speaker 3: cow Wilkie, they do, but it doesn't seem like sCOD 1103 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 3: is going to give him up. So if if you 1104 00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:40,480 Speaker 3: can do that, that's probably the biggest win they could 1105 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 3: have this trade period. Doesn't sound like they want Stephen May, 1106 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,359 Speaker 3: which looking at Steven May over the last twelve months, 1107 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 3: I can kind of understand. Was it kind of Butterick, Yes, 1108 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 3: it's been linked to Yes, I don't know that he's 1109 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 3: Robertson Dev Robertson. Yeah, finally in midfielder at the Bulldogs. 1110 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 3: That's an interesting call, so it doesn't seem like the 1111 00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:00,080 Speaker 3: guy isn't there for them to go and get. In 1112 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 3: the same way that Sydney just needs a tall player 1113 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 3: who is good at football, the Bulldogs need a call defender. 1114 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 3: Jake lever Jack Leber would be the best realistic veteran 1115 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:13,359 Speaker 3: trade option for them. 1116 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,319 Speaker 4: I think I think it sounds like Jordan Butts maybe 1117 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 4: is more lucky to stay it now. 1118 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 3: And I think, well, it didn't seem like either lev 1119 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 3: nor Melbourne were super keen on doing that when that 1120 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,759 Speaker 3: was floated over the last few weeks. Certainly not in 1121 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 3: the way that they're happy to let may go. 1122 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:32,279 Speaker 4: Richmond's Tyler Young is one of the players young, yes, yes, Young. 1123 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 3: So if this is the pool of the Bulldogs swimming in, 1124 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 3: they are not fixing their problems. 1125 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:38,919 Speaker 2: And now, of course Joel Handling is off the market. 1126 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 2: Bus You and Will for them were very devastated by 1127 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 2: Joel Hemming being part of trade. 1128 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,800 Speaker 3: Gws have been linked to about seven different veteran key defenders. 1129 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 3: It's Sam Frost for free is not bad. 1130 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:52,839 Speaker 4: I don't mind Jane Leverde for them as depth. 1131 00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 2: That looks like it's happening. Giants for a guy who 1132 00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 2: might play like four or five six games. No, Sam 1133 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,239 Speaker 2: Frost to the Dogs. There you go, do that, do it. 1134 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:07,359 Speaker 2: Luke Beverick definitely listening. Lean Jones worked well last time 1135 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,280 Speaker 2: when he came in as a real mature the definition 1136 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 2: of a mature age recruit there as a throw at 1137 00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 2: the stumps. 1138 00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 4: They're just gonna be massive watch, like the Bulldogs just 1139 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 4: because and you look at their Grand Final, the footscray 1140 00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 4: of Grand Final team and just how many AFLs and 1141 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:24,440 Speaker 4: players are playing there, and it's just like they've got 1142 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,799 Speaker 4: so much but have done so little. 1143 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,360 Speaker 2: And they'll they'll be a big watch.
