Considering 12 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 2: that's when gold Cos and Estenim will play, we'll have 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 2: the full run Home state of play, dissect all the 14 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 2: big issues in faar or fast, take your questions in 15 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 2: the mailbag, deep dive into the wisdom of Kevin Sheedy, 16 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 2: and bring you all the latest expert tips and cups. 17 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 2: In a rather large edition of the Fox Footy Podcast. 18 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: Ben Wadeweth with you, as is Foxfooty dot com dot 19 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 2: a U Chief Run Home correspondent Max Lord, and Hello Mack. 20 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 3: Certainly Ben Hello, I was more of a five man myself, 21 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 3: five with the A Star on the eye a number 22 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 3: or yeah, I think they were one of my first concerts. 23 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, over in s think I 24 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 3: would have thought you would have been a Backstreet Boys 25 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 3: man him, them and Robbie Williams. Robbie of course. 26 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: Also joining us as a man who decided to spend 27 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 2: his Sunday off watching Richmond get dumped in the thump 28 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 2: rather in the cold well. Jack Jovinovski, Hello. 29 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 4: Jack, Hello, guys. Dumped is also adequate, and it would 30 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 4: be two straight sundays. I did that if you Counterdogs 31 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 4: lost last week, but yes, very glad to be here. 32 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 2: What was the better performance out of the lost to 33 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 2: the Bulldogs or the lost to the Adelaide Crows. 34 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 5: I don't know if that deserves an answer. 35 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 3: Asking which animal droppings are best? 36 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 5: Is it not? Pretty much? Pretty much? 37 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 4: I like being at the g more though, so yeah, 38 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 4: I'll take that. 39 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 3: Fling into the stereotype of Richmond fans. 40 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: I think we had kind of all expected this from 41 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 2: a Richmond perspective, though we saw some really good signs 42 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 2: in the first six seven weeks. They look young and tired, though, yeah. 43 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 4: They looked very tired going to the by have liked 44 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 4: to have seen a little bit more vibrancy coming out 45 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 4: of the BI haven't seen that, but I'm also very 46 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 4: glad to see I We'll be glad to see Samuelula 47 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 4: back in action and then hopefully taj On. 48 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 3: There was a lot of energy from one player in particular, 49 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 3: probably too much energy on to do Thomas that has 50 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 3: sent him to the tribunal. 51 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: Tomlin shedding of the tribunal as we record in about 52 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 2: three hours time. He's looking at a four or five week. 53 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 3: We think the AFL is likely to ask for five 54 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 3: because they could have given four weeks in the match 55 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 3: review and chose not to and said the director referral instead, 56 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 3: So it sounds like five maybe more. It actually shouldn't 57 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 3: be a contentious one was talking about it was either before. 58 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 3: These aren't the ones that go on for hours and 59 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 3: hours because everyone agrees he did something wrong. It's just 60 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 3: a matter of the sanction. It's like the it's the 61 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 3: ones where was this a bump or not? That's when 62 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 3: we get the long here yea, So it should be 63 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 3: simple enough. 64 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, Richmond, you think will somewhat fall on their sword. 65 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: It's sort of what penalty they're sort of seeking. 66 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 3: Well, you can throw yourself at the mercy and try 67 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 3: and beak the leniency and that often works, minimizing the 68 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 3: sanction a bit. Yeah, I wouldn't be shocked if that 69 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 3: was the case here. 70 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 2: Adam Use said post game that he didn't see the 71 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 2: incident involving Tom Lynch. 72 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 4: They never do, no, They rarely ever see that. 73 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 3: They don't have the boxes. A lot of people don't 74 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 3: know this. The coach's boxes are blacked out and they 75 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 3: don't have any screens. They just sit there in silence 76 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 3: and hope for the best and go. 77 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 2: Buy Sound and Champion Dharps. 78 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 3: There's a braille readout of the game which they use. 79 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 3: It's very high tech. 80 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: He did say though, that Tom Lynch might be getting 81 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: a bit of a hard time from a being held 82 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,399 Speaker 2: and might not be getting some love from the umpires 83 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: and free kicks. Objectively, Jack, do you think the coach 84 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: has a point? 85 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, Look, it's hard for me to be objective in 86 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 4: this exact instance, it was being held. I do think 87 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 4: over the course of numerous years Lynchy is probably I 88 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 4: probably should have caught him. He's probably been a little 89 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 4: bit hard done by in marking contests, and you could 90 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 4: see obviously in a few incidents leading up to the 91 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 4: incident that he was clearly getting frustrated, increasingly frustrated, and 92 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 4: he got to boiling point and the main act as 93 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 4: they called it last night, was the most impact he 94 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 4: had in the contest all day and it wasn't even 95 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 4: in the contest, So it was appointing. 96 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,799 Speaker 3: What was it, zero touches and five free kicks against 97 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 3: at halftime? It's not an ideal. 98 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 2: Not would the super Coach score be right down on 99 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 2: negative the floor was the answer from an overall perspective. 100 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 2: Across round sixteen, tipping basically went to plan yep, most 101 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: got six and seven, I think across certainly the Fox 102 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 2: Footy competition. So what did that mean for the Run 103 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 2: Home when it made its twenty twenty five debut on 104 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 2: Sunday night and was unleashed to the public to rapturous 105 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 2: applause and web traffic. 106 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 3: Hopefully, despite debuting so late in the season, it can 107 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 3: still earn a Rising Star domination, unlike Joe Frazer last year. 108 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 3: What it means is that GWS has projected ninth. 109 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 2: Because that was one of my questions down here, hearing 110 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: the Giants are going to finish ninth. 111 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 3: I do well. I think a lot of that is 112 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 3: that I think they are the least impressive team of 113 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 3: the top nine and have been, as I've said on 114 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 3: this podcast, somewhat fortunate with their goalkicking in a couple 115 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: of times. Look, they've done very very well to win 116 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 3: those last two games against Brisbane and Gold Coast. The 117 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 3: finals race, we're all saying it's a race in nines 118 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 3: nine contenders. If they'd lost those games, as I certainly tipped, 119 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 3: we would have an eighteen race for eight. So it's 120 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 3: a good thing for the complexity of the finals race 121 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 3: that they did get up in both of those games. 122 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 3: There's certainly a chance They've got quite a few easy 123 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 3: ish games like this week against West Coast where they 124 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 3: absolutely should win. So they should get to thirteen wins. 125 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 3: All of these teams should get to thirteen wins. That's 126 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 3: what makes this so intriguing. It's whether, for the first 127 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 3: time in history, you need fourteen to play finals. We 128 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 3: had thirteen missed out last year with Collingwood to twelve 129 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 3: wins and two draws, but usually no one's ever missed 130 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 3: out on fourteen wins. That's entirely possible. This year if 131 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 3: everything goes to plan. But what it usually happens is 132 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 3: that one team stuffed things up. Yeah, Freo was top 133 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 3: four for ages the back half last year and then 134 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 3: lost their last four and missed the eight entirely. So 135 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 3: these things happen, we don't know who. That's what makes 136 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 3: do win the run home so prone to mistakes. It's 137 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 3: compared to what the actual ladder ends up being. But 138 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 3: I think you can look at teams that clearly have 139 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 3: an easier drawer and things they have a harder draw 140 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 3: and say who's more likely to make it? And that's 141 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 3: why I think the Giants are the least likely to 142 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 3: make it? 143 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 2: Right now, Okay, who are the Giants competing with? Competing 144 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 2: with in inverted commas in terms of finishing outside the 145 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 2: top eight? Who else is vulnerable? Was the bottom end 146 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 2: of that top. 147 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 3: Eight, So definitely Frio. So we have this interesting fixture 148 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 3: this week where it's top nine bottom nine in every game. Right, 149 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 3: Freemantle is actually an underdog though as they play at 150 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 3: Sydney at the SCG. Theoretically we'll see how that goes. Yes, 151 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 3: if they lose that game and all the other favorites win, 152 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 3: I will be projecting Freo just to miss the eight. 153 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 3: That's how close the projections are right now. It's one 154 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 3: point four wins roughly between first between third and ninth. 155 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 3: So results will change these the order every week, so 156 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 3: don't yell at me when it changes. It's just because 157 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 3: the results happened. So Frio is definitely at risk because 158 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 3: they've got quite a few hard games and one of 159 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 3: the hard draws, and Hawthorne as well. Pretty touch. 160 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 2: Hawthorne got a hard draw and I know our colleague 161 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: Josh Barnes at the Herald Sun had Hawthorne missing out. 162 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 2: Hawthorne do interestingly though, Jack one of the teams now 163 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 2: in the premiership window. Well, they sort of have been 164 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 2: around the mark for a lot of the year, but 165 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,119 Speaker 2: they are. Yeah, they've seem to have got a little 166 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 2: bit of rhythm back in their game across the past 167 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,119 Speaker 2: couple of weeks, albeit it probably haven't been against mighty 168 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: red hot opposition. 169 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 5: Yeah. 170 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 4: I think the Ford line is going to be the 171 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 4: most intriguing thing to watch throughout the rest of the 172 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 4: home and away season. Like I think Klsha Deer and 173 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 4: Mitch Lewis both two goals on the weekend. Luke Bruce 174 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 4: kicked three in the reserves as well for box Hill, 175 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,119 Speaker 4: and you've got Gunsen and Choll who combined for twelve 176 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 4: and Max Ramson, who's most vulnerable. He's still kicked three 177 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 4: granted against North Melbourne in a belting, But I think 178 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 4: the way that the forward line shapes up going to 179 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 4: the finals is going to be very interesting. And if 180 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 4: they can get a healthy Mitch Lewis, maybe partnering with 181 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 4: Choll and Gunston potentially I think would make even more 182 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 4: dynamic going into the finals. 183 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 3: That was the first time on Saturday against North they 184 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 3: looked like last year's team. This year to me, like 185 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 3: they had some impressive wins there werefore. I know, they 186 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 3: beat the Giants down in Tazzi and everyone was like, oh, 187 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 3: they're a contender, but then they've fallen off a little 188 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 3: bit and then they thrashed North by a million points. 189 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: That's what they were doing, which you put a lot 190 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 2: of emphasis on, a lot of emphatis on, but you 191 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: do give credit to beating up on the bottom team. 192 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 3: And it means a lot because of their percentage, because 193 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 3: their percentage was down there with Farroh and Giants around 194 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 3: one hundred and ten. Now it's one hundred and eighteen, 195 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 3: so that's a genuine advantage. If we're going to have 196 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 3: a tie on thirteen or fourteen wins, that could be 197 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 3: the difference between a home final and away elimination final 198 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 3: or missing entirely, so that really matters. The injuries are 199 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 3: a problem. Will Day already missing and now Josh Weddle 200 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 3: with a back concern that could rule him out for 201 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 3: the season. They're hopeful that it comes back before the 202 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 3: end of the season, so that's very unfortunate for them. 203 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 3: I'm just looking at the Hawks ficture. There no so easy, obvious, 204 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 3: definite wins, like, yeah, they should beat Port in Lonzeston, 205 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 3: they should beat some Kilda this week. They should beat 206 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 3: Carton of the G, they should beat Melbourne at the G. 207 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 3: But none of those are default tips. You'll you'll have 208 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 3: a question mark over those games. 209 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 2: So there's no games against the bottom three teams for 210 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 2: the rest of the season. 211 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 3: It's those and then they have games against contenders Frero away, 212 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 3: Adelaide away, Brisbane away calling it at the G. So 213 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 3: they get the job done in those four games. They 214 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 3: should win agast the bottom nine. Then the Hawks will 215 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 3: have fourteen wins pretty good percentage. They should play finals, 216 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 3: but they're at risk because of that, and there are 217 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: teams above them, like Geelong in particular and even Adelaide 218 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 3: that just have easier games that they absolutely should win 219 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 3: and it would be crazy if they lost. And that 220 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 3: matters this time of the year. 221 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 2: Just on Adelaide. They obviously beat up on Jax Tigers 222 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 2: on the weekend, but they now sit inside the top four, 223 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 2: nicely inside the top four because of their percentage, they 224 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 2: have the best percentage in the competition. They're very well 225 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,839 Speaker 2: entrenched in the premiership window. They almost look when you 226 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 2: look graphically, when you look at. 227 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 3: It statistically, certainly they. 228 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 2: Look the most entrenched in the premiership window right now. 229 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 3: Second, I think they're second for points four and against. 230 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 3: The interesting thing they did on the couch on Monday 231 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 3: night they looked at the premiership window, which is if 232 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 3: your top six to four points scored and points against. 233 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 3: Eighteen of the last twenty premiers have been top six 234 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 3: for both twenty of twenty have been top six top 235 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 3: six four defense. The interesting thing was that Adelaide was 236 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 3: not in the premiership window against top nine teams, against 237 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 3: the absolute best, and I think that's as a caveat 238 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 3: on that is that they've played two really weird, low 239 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 3: scoring games against fellow contenders, the Giants and the Hawks 240 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 3: both like forty to thirty bizarre scorelines. That's got their 241 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 3: stats out of whack. Otherwise, they're playing really good foot. 242 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 3: We still do need to see more good wins against contenders, 243 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 3: like you've got the Brisbane win from a few weeks ago. 244 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 3: But otherwise I think they've got some chances. Bulldogs at Marvel, 245 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 3: coming up, gold Coast at home, Collingwood in the second 246 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 3: last game of the season, and Hawthorne Adelaide Oval, So 247 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 3: thore's a big chances for the Crows to prove their 248 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 3: bona fides and if they if they get to fourteen 249 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 3: wins to their one hundred percent playing finals because they 250 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 3: present age fifteen to sixteen, they're a top four share 251 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 3: and they will not be scared if they draw Collingwood 252 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 3: in the first week of Fine. 253 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 2: No, they don't. We talked about that a couple of 254 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 2: weeks ago. If colin had finished first and Adelaide finished fourth, 255 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: it almost suggests that Adelaide might have the best chance 256 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 2: of causing a qualifying final upset of the top four 257 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 2: teams is it? Because this is the thing right with 258 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 2: the run home at the moment, with nine teams being contention, 259 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 2: the Giants, Hawks and Dockers might be vulnerable missing the ape, 260 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: but they're also technically right in the top four mix 261 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 2: at the same time. So how's the top four race looking? 262 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, percentage is going to play a huge factor and 263 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 3: that's where the Dogs come into it. And the Dogs 264 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 3: have a pretty nice draw as well. So beating the 265 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 3: Swans that felt like a game that last year they 266 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 3: would have dropped maybe in previous years certainly, but they 267 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 3: got over the line, won a close one that they 268 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 3: actually lost on expected score. Did they unlike the Bulldogs 269 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 3: to win those sorts of games. But they've got North 270 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 3: this week. They've still got Essendon to come. West Coast 271 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 3: Freeman has to come to Marvel, GWS comes to Marvel, 272 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 3: Adelaide comes to Marvel. As I said, a lot of 273 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 3: very winnable games with the Dogs. We know, if anything, 274 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 3: they can beat bad teams, and they've got some bad 275 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 3: teams left. So you do that, you should get enough 276 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 3: wins and bank them. They're a good chance to jump 277 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 3: into the top four, which would be of all things, 278 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 3: the first time under Luke Beverage that they've been Top four. 279 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 2: Would be and we'll give them a good chance are 280 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 2: going as deep as they can in September. Of those 281 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 2: Collingwood aside from Brisbane down to the Giants, Jack, is 282 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 2: there one team have concerns about in terms of heading 283 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 2: into the finals? And is there one team that's maybe 284 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 2: a bit of a sleeper that you can see going 285 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 2: maybe a little bit deeper into September compared to what 286 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 2: most think at the moment. 287 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 4: So I think we haven't seen the Giants play consistently 288 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 4: at their best like we have seen in maybe years past, 289 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 4: and I think if they can be consistently great, and 290 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 4: they have been pretty good in their last couple of wins, 291 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 4: I think they've put the potential to still make a 292 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 4: top four charge. I'd be most concerned of any of 293 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 4: those teams with the Suns, just based on history and 294 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 4: also well like they do have the game in hand. 295 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 4: But yeah, at the business end of the season, you 296 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 4: do have those concerns, just given their inability to close 297 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 4: it out in previous years. And also Freemantle I think 298 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 4: haven't been overly convincing in some of their wins. Obviously 299 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 4: they it took quite a bit to go overline against 300 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 4: Saint Kilda, so I think those two would be the 301 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 4: ones I'd be most concerned about. I can't see a 302 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 4: world where the Dogs miss. I think Hawthorne are just 303 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 4: so well coached Adelaide like, I think Adelaide could lose 304 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 4: a few of those really tough games, but I still 305 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 4: see them making it. So I think it's Sons and 306 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 4: Free will. 307 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 5: Be in the teams. I'd be more concerned about it. 308 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 3: A little question mark on Brisbane, like the illusion of 309 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 3: them being second on the lader makes them sound more 310 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 3: safe than they are. 311 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: The draws handy here for them, well, that's what the 312 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 2: hardest draw as in the draw that they had against 313 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 2: North Melbourn. 314 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 3: Absolutely it makes up for their poor percentage. The confusion 315 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 3: of language, yes, thanks English. So a lot of really 316 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,959 Speaker 3: tough games Port Dogs, Swans and Hawks all come to 317 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 3: the Gabba, which is not a fortress anymore as we know. 318 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 3: Carlton away, Gold Coast away, Sydney away, Collin modaway rather 319 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 3: Freo away. In the second last week. Those two games 320 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 3: at the end Frio and Hawthorne could be decisive for 321 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 3: top four, could be decisive for top eight if the 322 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 3: Lions slip up. So because I'm not overly convinced, I 323 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 3: think Lions fans weren't thrilled with me suggesting that the 324 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 3: elements of the winover Gelong. We're fortunate, as I talked 325 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 3: about last week with the goalkicking that the Cats failed 326 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 3: to know how to do. But look, they have been 327 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 3: a good team so far. They've banked a lot of wins. 328 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 3: They haven't been incredible. They haven't been that team that 329 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 3: we saw in the finals last year. Yet I'm interested 330 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 3: to see whether they can turn into that team. They 331 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 3: certainly have the talent, but if they stumble on these 332 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 3: tough games, they could fall further than we think. 333 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 2: And as we look towards that Round twenty four and 334 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: a half game as well, the attitude for both teams, 335 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 2: I think hitting into that game is fascinating because Essdon 336 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 2: during the bye was all the big story because they 337 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 2: had three players go down with soft tissue injuries just 338 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 2: curse compared to and it'd be fascinating this to see 339 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 2: the severity of those injuries. We should find out that 340 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 2: in the coming hours. And then you've got Gold Coast, who, 341 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 2: if history is anything to go by, aren't the most 342 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 2: convincing team at this time of the year. They could 343 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 2: seriously be. They could be playing to keep their finals 344 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 2: hopes alive depending on how things go, or playing for 345 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 2: a home final. The attitude, the intangibles to suppose of 346 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 2: that game is going to be fascinating. Miss how it 347 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 2: plays it. 348 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 3: I think it was exactly twelve months ago from this 349 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 3: weekend that Damian Hardwick said after a lost to North 350 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 3: that that club has to grow the f up. 351 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 5: Yes, that was that press conference. 352 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 3: So this is the time to do it. They've got 353 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 3: a tough month other than the Essington game this week 354 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 3: which they really should win, Collingwood, Adelaide, Brisbane, So there's 355 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 3: a very real possibility. They're ten and eight heading into 356 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 3: the biggest five weeks in the club's history. Their last 357 00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 3: three games Giants at home could be a mini elimination final. 358 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 3: The loser of that missus and then if they need 359 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 3: to beat both Port and Essendon that in round twenty four, 360 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 3: that will be very interesting. And that's probably what the 361 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 3: AFL's best scenario was right now, because Essiden is certainly 362 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 3: not going to make that into a finals appearance game 363 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 3: for this es give it. 364 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 2: A nice little primetime exposure I think for the back 365 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 2: half of the season. Fixture came out recently. 366 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 3: It's an interesting optimism from them. 367 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 2: Now that's the look at the top nine in particular, 368 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 2: Fair or Fast today has a strong bottom. 369 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: Nine Few and Now on the Fox Footy podcast, another 370 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: strong edition of Australia's favorite segment, Fair or Fast Max Bottom. 371 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 2: Brad Lloyd's airport press conference on Friday was a glimpse 372 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 2: into the uncertainty and pressure many at Carlton are facing 373 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 2: right now. 374 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 3: Fair or Fast take me through, take the listeners through 375 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 3: what was going on in that. 376 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 2: Specifically, Brad Lloyd, the general manager of football for Carlton, 377 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 2: was asked if he could guarantee whether he and Michael 378 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 2: Voss could be there next year and basically avoided the question. 379 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 3: Okay, he didn't go for the answer that I think 380 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 3: was Anthony Sebold, the Manly coach, had a similar sort 381 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,680 Speaker 3: of press conference and said, oh, look we're having it tough, 382 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 3: but it could be worse in Israel and Ukraine. 383 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 2: I didn't quite go that, which is not wrong. 384 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 3: I guess, but it's interesting comment. That doesn't help, does it. 385 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 3: I'm still not Carlton just doesn't feel carltony enough to 386 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 3: do something crazy right now. 387 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 2: So they announced on Monday that Graham right, he's got 388 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 2: a lot of airtime reasons did him even saying a word, 389 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 2: But he's officially taken over from Brian Cook mid August 390 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 2: August fifteen. 391 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 3: Ye, I think it is so like just before round 392 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 3: twenty four. 393 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 2: And they're going to jack. What was the president's line yesterday? Calm, calm, rational, 394 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 2: measured decisions. Those are the words that they were using, 395 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 2: which is uncarlton Like. 396 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 3: I think these are the antonyms if you look up 397 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 3: Carlton and the dictionary actually, So that's good to know 398 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 3: that they've learned those words and they're trying and put 399 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 3: them into effect. I would be I would certainly be 400 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,719 Speaker 3: shocked if Michael Voss left the job before the end 401 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 3: of this season. If there was a review after in 402 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 3: August September, and it's decided that they need to look 403 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,640 Speaker 3: for a new way forward, that's not crazy because missing 404 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 3: the finals right now would be pretty bad with given 405 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 3: the list they've got. 406 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 4: How much do we read into him starting earlier than 407 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 4: his initial papers It was supposed to be around October, 408 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 4: so August fifteen, do you read a lot into that 409 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 4: or was this so that that just the nature. 410 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 3: Of and does it not make sense if he's going 411 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 3: to be the main decision maker at the club to 412 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,199 Speaker 3: look over the off season and things like that, if 413 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 3: you're starting in October, you're coming in like mid trade period, 414 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 3: which makes it a bit awkward or even behind the 415 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,719 Speaker 3: trade period. That could be the reason why. 416 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 4: I think it makes sense, and I think it makes 417 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 4: sense that they would use these remaining weeks with right 418 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 4: coming in to assess Voss and the food department in 419 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 4: full before making, as they would say, a calculated decision. 420 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 4: I think it's probably the right thing to do, and 421 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 4: they put into but you know, I mean, if you've 422 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 4: said you've. 423 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 3: Seen a week's worth of Harold sunheadlines in the future, 424 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 3: I fear. 425 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 2: If Carlton were one of those teams with at ten 426 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 2: and five compared to sitting eleventh and being six and nine, 427 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 2: I think you'll I think the Brian Cook would be 428 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 2: officially handing over in October moment. Yeah, I think that's 429 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 2: fair to say. Okay, interesting, So from a playing perspective, Jack, 430 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 2: or from a playing list perspective, the only untouchable Blue 431 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 2: this off season from a trade perspective, is a player 432 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 2: who hasn't played a game Jagger Smith fair or fast? 433 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 5: No, I think that's I think that's fast. I wouldn't be. 434 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 4: I wouldn't be even leaving the door open to suggestions 435 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 4: that Patrick Crips could be gettable at the trade table, 436 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 4: not even. 437 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 3: If a godfather offer came down from West Coast. Three 438 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 3: first round picks. 439 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 4: That's pretty it's interesting. I don't think when he's coming down, No, 440 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 4: that makes no sense with them. 441 00:19:59,240 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 3: Don't do that West Coast. 442 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you. 443 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 4: Can make the argument that just about every other player 444 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 4: than the captain. But I feel like he's been through 445 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 4: it all and had and has and as he's publicly said, 446 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 4: he's been through this sort of public sort of scrutiny 447 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 4: a couple of times now, whether it's been to the 448 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 4: Brendan Bolton or David Tigan now and now VOSSI. So 449 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 4: I wouldn't be completely opposed to taking calls on you know, 450 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 4: your Charlie Kurno's or your probably Harry Hary McKay first 451 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:37,719 Speaker 4: and foremost. But yeah, I mean interesting to Jordan Yne 452 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 4: Jago Smith. But and I tend to agree that I 453 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 4: don't think he's like just because he's been out the 454 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 4: entire year. I don't think if he if he wasn't 455 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 4: that he'd be the answer to to their issues. 456 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 3: He'd be one of the answers. 457 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 5: He could be a solution. But there are more than 458 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 5: there's more than one problem. 459 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 2: I think he of all the draft prospects last year, 460 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 2: he was the player I thought most ready made to 461 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 2: play in opening round round one. 462 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 3: And that's why a team in their premishire position traded 463 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 3: up for him. Yeah, right, but they knew he would 464 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 3: be an outside runner that they needed for that group 465 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 3: because they. 466 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 5: Have some flaws. 467 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 3: I think the risk with this was Jordan Lewis's suggestion 468 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 3: on on the Couch. By the way, we're not just 469 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 3: floating this out of a mid air. The risk would 470 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 3: be trading Crips would be the equivalent of probably not 471 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 3: as big because we're only a minnow in the sporting landscape. 472 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 3: But it's the Luca don Chic trail because what that 473 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 3: did from a basketball perspective, maybe if you squint and 474 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 3: you really believe in the GM, you could make the case. 475 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 3: From a hearts and minds perspective, you destroy a fan 476 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 3: base because they love Patrick Cripps Blues fans understandably so, 477 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 3: and that would ruin them even no matter what picks 478 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 3: they got back, no matter if those picks turn into stars. 479 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 3: Eventually those players would have the pressure of the world 480 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 3: upon them if they were the ones who were replacing 481 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 3: Patrick Cripps. 482 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 4: I think the only difference to note there is that 483 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 4: Luca is an ascending player. 484 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 3: I think, trust me, it's much worse. 485 00:21:58,240 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 5: Yes. 486 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 4: Part of the reason I think maybe Jordy floated it 487 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 4: was because Crips is not ascending, right, Like, I think 488 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 4: we've seen the best of Crips previously. Well, I don't 489 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 4: think he's got more to give than what he's given, Yes, 490 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 4: so I can see from that perspective. 491 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 5: So yeah, but. 492 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 4: I think there's no doubt that Grahame Right's going to 493 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 4: come in and be aggressive and be willing to consider, 494 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 4: you know, brave, ambitious trade and list calls. 495 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 5: And I think that's what the Blues require. 496 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 3: If you're playing AFL twenty five and you're playing franchise 497 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 3: mode or whatever that game has, you'd consider the. 498 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 2: Trade you haven't played you still haven't played it. 499 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 3: No, I didn't get a code, and disappointing that. 500 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:47,880 Speaker 2: Max the scg's calculated gamble has backfired and it's time 501 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 2: to wait for a time to say goodbye to Andrea concerts. 502 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 3: Fair or fast, just in time for Mother's Day. The 503 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 3: new album. I'm sure it's on sale now in every 504 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 3: kmart near you, every sanity. 505 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 5: JV. 506 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 3: That's way to GMV Borders. Maybe do they still CDs 507 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 3: who remembers Borders? No one, They've stuff this went up 508 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 3: a bit, haven't they. Yes, CG in the AF I 509 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 3: understand that growing grass is not as easy as it 510 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 3: may sound. But to get the SG in that sort 511 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 3: of position months or why, months past that concert, which 512 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 3: theoretically did a lot of damage, It's pretty crazy, isn't it. 513 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 3: And immediately ruling out any idea of moving the game 514 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 3: is weird when you haven't had time to inspect it yet. 515 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 3: You know, the Swans were pretty adamant on Saturday that 516 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 3: know the game will not be moved. We will be 517 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 3: playing it at our home ground, which I guess I 518 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 3: can understand from their perspective because they want homeground advantage. 519 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 2: But they were very tight lipped immediately after the match 520 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 2: around the state of the surface, and I think they've obviously. 521 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 3: Their medium boss was tweeting about saying no. Jadwick was 522 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 3: tweeting saying that we're playing the game there, So that's interesting. 523 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 3: So look that I don't think they're going to move 524 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 3: the game to Giants Stadi, to NG or certainly not 525 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 3: to Home Bush. No, because that stadium would not be 526 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 3: ready and sucks, so they couldn't even play there if 527 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 3: they wanted to. 528 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 4: What I find interesting about this is we haven't so 529 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 4: this concert that we keep referring back to is was 530 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 4: on April three. Yes, I know they've at least played 531 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 4: Adelaide at the SCG since then, but this wasn't something 532 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 4: that was on the agenda really in this time since 533 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 4: up until the Bulldogs game. 534 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 2: I think did Jared say though that the Carlton game 535 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 2: it looked a bit iffy then, but it had gotten worse. 536 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 3: Well, and there were questions raised by Port players after 537 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 3: the Port game in round six. 538 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 2: Yep, so has it get worse? So the SCG curator 539 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 2: was on three W afterwards and talked about the species. 540 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 2: Didn't blame it all on the weather, but they've had 541 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 2: a lot of rain in recent times. They just haven't 542 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 2: had a chance. 543 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 3: To not a great week of weather coming up. No, 544 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 3: some sort of radars have looked brilli weather bomb whatever 545 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: the Bureau of Meteorology bombus some thing they were calling it. 546 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 3: I don't know what that even means. It's very online. 547 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 2: Yes, it was a lot of it was down to 548 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 2: the large amount of rain that Sydney had had in 549 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 2: recent times and that hadn't given them the chance to 550 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 2: repair the turf properly or regrow the turf. 551 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 3: Okay, they've had a lot of good games there this year, 552 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 3: just looking at the scg's record for the Swans have 553 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 3: played seven games there and six of them in decided 554 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 3: by twenty points or less. So it's not like it's 555 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 3: ruining the quality of football. The Bullocks game was great. 556 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 2: It was like a game of the round. 557 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 3: Probably it sucked that everyone kept falling over, but it 558 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 3: made the game fun. 559 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, it did. 560 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 3: That's a plus. 561 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: Speaking of players falling over, you should have seen Jared 562 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 2: Heally around the office on Saturday after watching the Hawthorne 563 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 2: North Melbourne game. He could not believe the amount of players. 564 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 2: He couldn't imagine the players falling over. Jack sin Kilda 565 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 2: has made the right call to prioritize Nasaiah Wang name 566 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 2: Millerer over Miles Berben fair or fast as broken by 567 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 2: Fox Footy dot Com us Will Fork. 568 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think it's the right call. So if 569 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 4: this is what is happening, and and they're just putting 570 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 4: a lot of their eggs into the Nassiah basket, I 571 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 4: think that's probably the best basket of them all to 572 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 4: put the eggs into. I think he's he's the egg basket. Yeah, 573 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know really. 574 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 3: Softness, free range, Well that's the eggs. That doesn't describe 575 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 3: the woven nicely. 576 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:33,159 Speaker 4: Yeah, woman, fuzzy sort of operations, emotions. Uh yeah, Like 577 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 4: I think Nasaiah is the player that you want to 578 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 4: prioritize all all. I think long term, Miles Bergmann could 579 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 4: be the best player when you're talking about him, Nassiah, 580 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 4: T d K, potentially Lekala. I think Bergmann his his 581 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 4: ability to play as an inside midfielders, as uncovered this 582 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 4: season is is a suit betrayed. I don't know if 583 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 4: he's going to be like a real game breaker type midfielder, 584 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 4: but clearly he's shown that he can play that position 585 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 4: and he's going to be a really strong player. But 586 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 4: I think as of right now, if you have to 587 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 4: prioritize you know, money, you know for one of them. 588 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 4: I think it's still the sireh. So I think it's 589 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 4: probably the right call. 590 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 3: And it also just makes sense to try and keep 591 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 3: your own player first instead of the bother of having 592 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 3: to trade for Bergman or whatever it may. 593 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 2: And Asia is one of the sort of rare A 594 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 2: grade commodities Honest and Kilda list for a long time 595 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 2: and as clearly likes playing under ross Line. He's doing 596 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 2: great things under ross line, clearly won a lot of 597 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 2: pundits over with his ability to break lines either with 598 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:43,880 Speaker 2: his with his run and carry or he's kicking. 599 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 3: So are you asking a question from the Bergman perspective? 600 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 3: We should we discussed that. 601 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 2: Now, what do you think? Do you think Bergman wouldn't 602 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 2: be the right quarter of stay of Port Adelaide until 603 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 2: free agent? 604 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 3: I think this is the move of a man who 605 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 3: is coming back to Victoria in two years time, because 606 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 3: otherwise you would have taken the long term deal. The 607 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 3: only exception would be if you are I mean, he's 608 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 3: taking this short term deal and betting on himself to 609 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 3: be an even better player in two years time when 610 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 3: he reaches free agency and go from what's probably a 611 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 3: million dollars a year over the next couple of years 612 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 3: to one point four one point five whatever it may be. 613 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 3: He's believing in himself to do that. But you probably 614 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 3: if you really truly staying at Port Adelaide, you just 615 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 3: signed the deal now and you lock in eight nine 616 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 3: million and that's your life set. 617 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 2: But is he is he going? Is he going to 618 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 2: free agency though, to ensure that he's well remunerated as 619 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 2: you mentioned just then not necessarily. If he might get 620 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: trying it to free agency and stay at Port and 621 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 2: try and ensure that he gets well remunerated by Port Adelaide. 622 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 3: Well that's possible. But I think I read this as 623 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 3: I'm coming home, but not yet. 624 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 2: Okay, do you have the same thoughts then with Matt Rowe, 625 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 2: who just signed a two year deal to stay at 626 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 2: Gold Coast and Agency. 627 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 3: I think it's about the same thing. I think, certainly 628 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,959 Speaker 3: with Gold Coast more than Port Adelaide. You look at 629 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 3: that list and go, all right, we're going to be 630 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 3: good for a while, like staying at Port, You're not 631 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 3: staying at Port right now for success. So they look 632 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 3: like a mid table team for a couple of years 633 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 3: because they're not going to be bad, but they're not 634 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 3: going to be great. Whereas Gold Coast the arrow is 635 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 3: clearly pointing up. But for real it makes sense to 636 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 3: try and win a flag. 637 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 4: Do you think Bergman's been sold a short term vision 638 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 4: by Josh Carr that he can play in the midfield 639 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 4: alongside Horn, Francis and Butters because Rosie's worked so well 640 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 4: off half back and they're technically speaking, I would say 641 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 4: they're still in that window where you've got the players, 642 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 4: you've got the talent to win. Now you give it 643 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 4: two more years and we're only seeing the surf like 644 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 4: he's just I think Bergman is scratching his surface of 645 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 4: what he can be as a pure ball getter, and 646 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 4: he's going to naturally increase his value in the next 647 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 4: two years anyway. And if he's been told by Carr 648 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 4: and co. That he's got that rain in the midfield 649 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 4: with Horn Francis and with Butters, then that's why he's 650 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 4: been persuaded in the last few weeks to have a 651 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 4: change of heart, because it sounds like, you know, a 652 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 4: few weeks ago that he was probably more likely to 653 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 4: go than stay, even on a short term. 654 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 3: He's playing more midfield time right now, and that's convinced 655 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 3: him perhaps. 656 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I also think he's played well enough that 657 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 4: it warrants a look at him in that role longer term. 658 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 4: I think he's the best AFL player as a midfielder then, 659 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 4: as you know, like an more intercepting back half player, 660 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 4: even though he's still very good playing that role anyway. 661 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, por just just does seem to find those blokes. 662 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 2: And he's a different size as well. Horn Francis is 663 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 2: a ball, right, but Berger's got that little bit more 664 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 2: height same compared to Butters and Rosies. Obviously, his kicking 665 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 2: is being well utilized on the outside of the moment. 666 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 3: This is the thing with Port. If they do keep 667 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,719 Speaker 3: all of these guys and then maybe they add one more, 668 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 3: because they still wouldn't mind wae Ganna Miller themselves, that 669 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 3: would be nice. They would have arguably the best young 670 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 3: five players in the comps as like a quintete. Yeah, 671 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 3: that's a promising thing to build off. 672 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 2: Speaking of good young players, Max oh Joel Frasier is 673 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 2: looming as one of the all time great AFL draft 674 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 2: bargains or. 675 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 3: Fast Well, he's the best player from the last two drafts, 676 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 3: right now. 677 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 2: Is he not pick forty five according to the numbers. 678 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 3: Yes, according to the AFL player ratings this year, Joel 679 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,479 Speaker 3: Fraser as well written about in AFL talking Points by 680 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 3: Jack He's polming incredibly well for a player that I 681 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 3: think what was the view of him in his draft 682 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 3: year that he had potential but just hadn't shown. 683 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 2: Oh, his talent was. His talent was certainly there. There 684 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 2: was a game where he kicked six from twenty six disposals. 685 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 2: Earlier on in the year, he had a really good 686 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,479 Speaker 2: start to his Coach Talent League campaign with the Rebels 687 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 2: Greater Western Victoria and then had a big Country National 688 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 2: Championships where he was subpar according to a lot of recruiters, 689 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 2: and then didn't kick on in the back half of 690 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 2: the year. And it probably the narrative around Joel was 691 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 2: more lack of competitiveness, which was which was interesting as 692 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 2: well because he had the versatility to play different positions. 693 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: He played for kick six played in a I think 694 00:31:58,360 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 2: when he kicked six and twenty six he played in 695 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 2: a wing and went forward. Players also had times as 696 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 2: a rebound. I clearly had some midfield traits as well, 697 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 2: but just the lack of he speaks to recruiters, and 698 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 2: this is especially especially with key forwards. If you can't compete, 699 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 2: it's a massive turnoff for recruiters. So Joel's obviously not 700 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 2: a key forward, but the lack of competitives, I think 701 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 2: in the modern game is a big turnoff for recruiters. 702 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 2: They could I think he was always going to get drafted, 703 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 2: but I don't think that was a massive surprise to 704 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 2: anyone on Draft night and recruiters that he slipped to 705 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 2: pick forty five. 706 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 3: Is that one of those traits where recruiters look at 707 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 3: it and go, all right, I can't aspire for you 708 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 3: to be great if I don't see that right now? 709 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 2: Yeah? When and Adam Simpson said on SCN on Saturday 710 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 2: that competitiveness, Yeah, competitives is hard to teach. 711 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 3: You just have that basically within you. 712 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's often an innate thing, but to actually teach 713 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 2: it at AFL level is remarkable. But the thing is 714 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 2: that his competitiveness since he's come into the Western Bulldog 715 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 2: setup has never been questioned. So I think full hats 716 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 2: off here to the Dogs development coaches and team and 717 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 2: Luke Beveridge that they've been able to get him to 718 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 2: this point so quickly in his AFL journey, and it 719 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 2: was interesting that his excellent gaming in Sydney in the 720 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 2: weekend came on the same night where Riley Sanders, who's 721 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 2: had his doubters and was taken the same draft nearly 722 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 2: forty picks earlier, had his best game as well. Lockie 723 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 2: Bramble also had one of his best games. Mack Kennedy 724 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 2: was sort of held throughout the night a little bit, 725 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 2: but still kicked two from fifteen, so the Dog showed 726 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 2: they had some good solid depth there when the likes 727 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 2: of Bontipelly was okay, Libber was okay, Richards was well 728 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 2: held by James Jordan. So I think yea, the Dogs 729 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 2: have done a terrific job to develop the depth of 730 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 2: their list to get them to this position that they're 731 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 2: in now. 732 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: Which is why they could afford to have last year's 733 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 3: trade period where they let McCrae and Daniel on those 734 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 3: guys leave, because they knew that they had enough talent 735 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 3: coming through that the midfield, which was already bursting at 736 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 3: the seams, had easy refills. 737 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 2: Imagine if Bally Smith was still there as well. 738 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 3: Ridiculous It was a fair trade, It was don't dispute. 739 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 4: That interesting point in touch on as well been with 740 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,439 Speaker 4: the competitiveness of Frasier. Do you think it's you touch 741 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 4: on the coaching point. Do you think part of the 742 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,879 Speaker 4: competitive piece is the fact that they started him as 743 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 4: a defender maybe to you know, hone him that craft 744 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 4: because as you note, he had the goal sense and 745 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 4: if he's going to be a midfielder at AFL level 746 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:28,919 Speaker 4: long term, like we know that teams coaches they love 747 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 4: these midfielders who are jewel threats so they can go 748 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 4: forward into the scoreboard. Right, so we've already seen it 749 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 4: can do that clearly, But maybe wasn't learning that defensive 750 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 4: side of the game first to be able to then 751 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 4: instill the trustings coaching his coaches that he could then 752 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 4: play in the midfield and more of a Ford for I. 753 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 2: Think it's a fair point from it from a different perspective, 754 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 2: they've put Harry North Melbourne put Harry She's on and 755 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 2: then Cobby mkirche to half back to start their careers. 756 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 2: Even though mccirch was definitely a midfielder and She's it 757 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,720 Speaker 2: was more a Ford midfielder, a Ford pinch hit midfielder. 758 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 2: During their respective drafts and Fino Sullivan has sort of 759 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 2: started on a wing cross half forward as well. So yeah, 760 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 2: I think the Dogs made it a wise carter starting 761 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 2: down back, but he also had the talent to play 762 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 2: dan back and you see his ability to take territory 763 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 2: and take ground. I think they've done a terrific development job. 764 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 3: So if you're doing a redraft of twenty twenty three 765 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 3: right now, first off, it's way too early, but let's 766 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 3: do it anyway. Adelaide fans are screaming at their phones 767 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 3: that Dan Kurtin just had his best game, so he'd 768 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 3: be right up there. 769 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: He would be still nowhere near one or two for mine. 770 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 3: That's fair. Harley Reid picked one obviously, Yeah, I think so. 771 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 772 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 3: Then I'm just to list out the top five. Colby mckircher, 773 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 3: Jed Walter, Zane Durzmer, Nick Watson, and then you look 774 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 3: at kayleb Wins had a good first year at Melbourne, 775 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,280 Speaker 3: Ethan Reid, Nate Caddy has shown signs, Connor Oro Sullivan 776 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 3: showing signs. It's a good top ten, but Frager has 777 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 3: to be in. 778 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 2: He has to be right up there. Speaking of Nick Watson, 779 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 2: Jack Nick Watson will want North Melbourne for a very 780 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 2: long time. Fair or fast? 781 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 3: Is he a ghost? 782 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 2: Yes? 783 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 3: Of drafts has gone wrong? 784 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 2: And why would he haunt the Ruse Because the Ruse 785 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 2: opted for as we just mentioned, Colby mccircher and then 786 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 2: Zane Durzmer with their two picks and then overlooked Nick Watson, 787 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 2: who was then taken with the next selection by Hawthorne. 788 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 5: I think this is fair. 789 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 4: So I like, I really like what Cobby mkirche can become. 790 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 5: I think he's. 791 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 4: At the moment he's best as a half back flanker, 792 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 4: like a rebounding provides run, can break lines with his kicking, 793 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 4: and he's been moved back into that role in the 794 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 4: last few weeks and I think it's reasonably clear that's 795 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 4: where he plays his best foot at the moment, you 796 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 4: just don't feel I guess that he's currently got the 797 00:36:54,080 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 4: body body to play as an inside midfielder Desma. I 798 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 4: guess from what we've seen so far, he seems like 799 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 4: a longer term prospect. 800 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,720 Speaker 2: I think, and was always seen as a longer term prospect. 801 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 4: Right So the frustration right now might be that Nick 802 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 4: Watson has just come on and he's already such a 803 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 4: threatening player in the forward half and on the weekend 804 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 4: we see that like the man can do it at 805 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 4: center bounce right, So like, is there a more damaging 806 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,839 Speaker 4: player in the game than someone who can who can 807 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 4: you know, impact time and time again on the scoreboard, 808 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 4: but also you know, pinch it as in midfielder, like 809 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,800 Speaker 4: similar to what causey pickets becoming from Melbourne. So I 810 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 4: think it's every time. And right now, I think you'd 811 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 4: be foolish to say that Watson isn't the best of 812 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 4: those three players. 813 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 5: So yeah, I think I think that's fair right now. 814 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, do you think there was an element of for 815 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 3: a start, he also plays well against North that he's 816 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 3: averaging fourteen and three in his two. 817 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 2: Games the only play. 818 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 3: Okay, all right, don't bag him that much. Come on, guys, 819 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 3: it's his best team he's playing against. He's not doing 820 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 3: that against West Coast every week, is he? 821 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 2: That's probably true, does play West Coast every week. 822 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 3: But he's played them also to us. But is there 823 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 3: an element of in his draft year, this guy's one 824 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 3: hundred and seventy centimeters that was so yeah, how good 825 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 3: can he be? 826 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 2: Well? I think one I remember one club recruiter saying 827 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 2: to me, if my coach said we're going to be 828 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 2: using a top five pick to on a one hundred 829 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 2: and seventy centimeter player, I don't know how well that 830 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 2: would be received. 831 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,879 Speaker 3: And that was clearly wasn't a Hawthorne Alistair Clarkson, one 832 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 3: of the older coaches in the game, perhaps has some 833 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,320 Speaker 3: established views on what types of players he wants to recruit, 834 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 3: and I think there. 835 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 2: Could be a factorate And if you do remember as well, 836 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 2: I think clark O met with Dan Curtin in the 837 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 2: days before the draft. 838 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,280 Speaker 3: Because we know they've needed tools in the last few drafts. 839 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 3: That would have made sense. Yeah, So they're definitely not 840 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 3: going to look for a small in that scenario, aren't they? 841 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 4: So, Ben, Ben, if you're red drafting and your North Melbourne, 842 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 4: you're still taking Dursam at four with Watson on the 843 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,399 Speaker 4: bo So I was I did I have knowing he's 844 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:57,839 Speaker 4: a longer term? Yeah? 845 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 2: I think so. I think they could. It was strategic 846 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 2: that they took the two of them because mckirchhe was 847 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 2: the player scene who could play pretty much straight away 848 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 2: and have an impact, and that's basically how it's played 849 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 2: outen He's been a little bit all over the place 850 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 2: in terms of where he's played and position wise, but 851 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 2: he's been reasonably I think he could say he's been 852 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 2: reasonably consistent, and certainly I think he's back to where 853 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 2: he is best for his position right now in defense, 854 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 2: and he's been getting thirty plus and it's not a 855 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 2: it's not a cheap thirty plus, I think. At the 856 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 2: same time, so I think he was the more bankable 857 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,399 Speaker 2: prospect in terms of making a more immediate impact, which 858 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 2: means that if you've got another pick, you then can 859 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,320 Speaker 2: take the lot you can then can take a Zane Dursmart. 860 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,720 Speaker 2: There was also the same draft where they had another 861 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 2: three picks later in the first round. 862 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 3: Taylor Goad, Will Dawson and Riley Harder. 863 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 2: So so and again different kinds of Taylor Goad is 864 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 2: very much a long term proposition, a ruck, really raw 865 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 2: ruck who was really not expected to play after game, 866 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 2: and you know, for at least two three years, Dawson 867 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 2: probably came on to look a little quicker than a 868 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 2: lot of people. 869 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 5: He was a bolter. 870 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 2: And Hardeman did get some games last year and he 871 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,760 Speaker 2: is getting some games now. He's sort of that rebounding 872 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 2: defender so they got very much different positional types and 873 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 2: they selected strategically, so I can understand what North Melbourne did. 874 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 2: I think Jack makes a good point. Watson was always 875 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 2: going to come in, I think, and make it a 876 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 2: pretty immediate impact, even though he's one hundred and seventy centimeters. 877 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 2: He had all the traits to make an early impact. 878 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 2: But I think Deurzma had a higher ceiling and his 879 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 2: best in his draft year was pretty gobsmacking. Watson's was too, 880 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 2: but Dersma had that little bit more height, athleticism, versatility 881 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 2: marking above his head. So I can understand why North 882 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:50,279 Speaker 2: Melbourne went the way that they did. 883 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 4: We still convinced that Dursma's best spot on the field 884 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 4: this forward. 885 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so. Yeah, I don't think he I 886 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 2: don't think he'd be a full time midfielder. Happy to 887 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 2: be corrected, but my hunch he's going to be a 888 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 2: Ford midfielder. 889 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 4: He is a bit shorter than Dan Kurtin, and Dan 890 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 4: Kurtin obviously has taken some time to I guess, be 891 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 4: trolled in different spots on the ground and I guess 892 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 4: find his niche a little bit, and you know, there's 893 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 4: still it's still not certain where he's going to play 894 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 4: his best footy, but clearly he's going to be a 895 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 4: good player wherever he plays it. So I think I 896 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 4: think it's interesting where Dursmi will end up playing his 897 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 4: best footing. And he obviously hasn't had much of a 898 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 4: like He's only played six games this year and three 899 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:34,839 Speaker 4: of beans suck, So I'm. 900 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 3: Not getting a huge run at things, is he not? 901 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 5: At the moment? 902 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 2: No, it'd be fascinating to see how how that all 903 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 2: pans out. That's the end of a very meaty dishes 904 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 2: of fair or Fast. It's now time to open up 905 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 2: all our fan mail on the Fox Foody podcast. 906 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 1: It's time to open up the mail bag. Have a 907 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: question for the panel tweet us every Monday morning at 908 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:53,320 Speaker 1: Fox Footy. 909 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,239 Speaker 3: Well, that makes it sound like people only say positive things. 910 00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 3: And I read out the positive question mark ones yes, 911 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 3: and there are also other ones, but thank you to everyone. 912 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 3: It's tweeted in at Fox Footy. It's Monday morning. There's 913 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 3: a tweet and then you respond to it, and then 914 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 3: I look through it and I pick some of them 915 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 3: to read out, like this one from Wade from high school. 916 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 3: Wade with dirks not mine. And not Wade Dirks and 917 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 3: I suspect damn but possibly trade Jacksman trade target. Wade 918 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 3: Dirkson can't wait to hear what's going on with him 919 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 3: in a trade Whisper's coming your way soon, Wade says, 920 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 3: Why does it feel like the AFL keeps pushing to 921 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 3: change the Grand Final time slot even though the vast 922 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 3: majority don't want it changed? 923 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:33,439 Speaker 5: Is that true? 924 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, the they make an announcement every year saying 925 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 2: that it is it is on at two thirty this 926 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 2: year is clearly it's part of the discussion with the 927 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:44,799 Speaker 2: AFL AFO commission every year. 928 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 3: Yes, that's when it gets announced. Is when the commission 929 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 3: ticks it off. 930 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:48,800 Speaker 5: Is it true that no one wants it changed? 931 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 4: No? No. 932 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 2: You speak to Jerry Whaley, for instance, and he is 933 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 2: he can't believe that it's not at a twilight spot 934 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 2: at the moment. Other people in the media have said 935 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,080 Speaker 2: it's ridiculous that it's not on a twilight spot in 936 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 2: the AFL is not making the most of the opportunity 937 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 2: to get as many eyeballs as possible on the Grand Final. 938 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 2: I can't speak about this objectively because I really liked 939 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,080 Speaker 2: the early finished time on Grand Final day. 940 00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 3: No good work wise. The Geelong Collingwood qualifying final in 941 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, oh yes, helped sort of flipped me 942 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 3: a bit to the Grand Final and the twilight slid. 943 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,359 Speaker 3: I definitely don't want a night game. It's too late. 944 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 3: You don't get to celebrated afterwards. That that was what 945 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 3: we had in twenty twenty and that's stunk for many reasons. 946 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 3: That's stunk, but the result I enjoyed it. Yeah, well 947 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 3: that says a lot about you. 948 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:35,399 Speaker 5: Too long. 949 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 3: The grandfatherly didn't happen. The twilight time slot fixes a 950 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 3: few things from it. And the reason it keeps me 951 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 3: up every year is because the broadcaster, the one that 952 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 3: shows the game, yes, once it later in. 953 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,919 Speaker 2: The day, understand and understandably so because they'll get more viewers, 954 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:50,879 Speaker 2: But he charged more for the ads because you think 955 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 2: about it from a doubly way perspective, the game's on 956 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 2: at twelve thirty in the afternoon, like twelve thirty at 957 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:56,400 Speaker 2: lunch time, So. 958 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,240 Speaker 3: Dom Shed kicked that goal at what like just before 959 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 3: three pm? Yes, that's just weird. 960 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 2: Yeah it is, and you and you know it's It's 961 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 2: why I think a lot of wa base fans really 962 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 2: don't like it when Freemantle has a they they've got 963 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 2: a one ten game this weekend, so they're playing at 964 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 2: eleven ten in the morning, which is and it's bad for. 965 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 3: The team, too bad for their body clocks and things 966 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 3: like that. It's just very weird. So that's why it 967 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:22,919 Speaker 3: keeps coming up. It's why we'll keep coming up because 968 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 3: the broadcasters who pay all the money to make the 969 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,400 Speaker 3: game go around are going to it's. 970 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 2: Clearly a year by year. It's now a the point 971 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:30,320 Speaker 2: where it's a year by year decision. 972 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 3: It's silly that it's year by year. But also Andrew 973 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 3: Dillon when he came in, has said that he likes 974 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,800 Speaker 3: that he's a day man. He's a yes, a day walker. 975 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,760 Speaker 4: Taking out of taking out of the conversation, now finished 976 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 4: times of work? What time would we like, like do 977 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 4: we want it to stay? Or do would you like 978 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 4: a latter time? 979 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 3: I genuinely don't care. I would be totally fine if 980 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 3: they went to flect four pm. 981 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, four four four thirty, four thirty would be fine. 982 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 3: But I'm also completely understanding the argument of let's just 983 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 3: do it how it's always worked. It's nice, so it 984 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 3: goes into the news and then switch over to the 985 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 3: other channel to watch the celebrations, that little tradition that 986 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 3: makes me feel warm and fuzzy thinking about that. I 987 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 3: don't know why I vote Twilight, which one New Moon, or. 988 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,920 Speaker 4: Even if it was three twenty. I think even three 989 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 4: twenty gives it a different feel, like I'm more luckly, But. 990 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:24,800 Speaker 3: Three twenty you're not going to do because then it 991 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 3: doesn't finish at six on the dot because of the 992 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 3: longer half time, so seven doesn't want that. They got 993 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 3: to think of it that well. 994 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 2: You know that the games that were scheduled for three 995 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 2: twenty for the rest of the year and now starting 996 00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 2: at three. 997 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 3: Fifteen, yes, because games are going too long A because 998 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 3: they need to fix that, because games are going quarters 999 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:43,879 Speaker 3: the only thirty five minutes and it's stupid. I think 1000 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 3: it was like that Sydney Melbourne game. It went to 1001 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 3: like six fifteen, yes something crazy news readers everywhere angrily 1002 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 3: reading their papers. Speaking of the fixture, Yoshi asks, I've 1003 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 3: got this egg, what do I do with it? And 1004 00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 3: then he says, why does the AFL struggle so much 1005 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 3: with simple fixturing? The buyers are a mess? Opening round 1006 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 3: as a joke. And now we have a seven twenty 1007 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 3: game and an eight twenty game on Friday night. 1008 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 2: We do that is interesting, isn't it. Well, it's very 1009 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 2: Perth friendly. The eight twenty Australian East and standard. 1010 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,359 Speaker 3: Time, yes, start time, that's realistically. You've had eight ten 1011 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 3: for Thursday night games, I want to say. 1012 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 2: And Saturday nights yea Saturday night so this is. 1013 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 3: This works for Perth and it's a West Coast WS 1014 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:24,919 Speaker 3: game at eight twenty and then Collingwood Carleton is seven 1015 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 3: to twenty. Yes on the East coast. Awkward. 1016 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 2: The weird one is in a couple of weeks time 1017 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 2: when it's we've got the Giant Swans. So we've got 1018 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 2: another Friday night doubleheader and the Giants Swan started seven 1019 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 2: to fifty pm and we've got a game at seven 1020 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 2: twenty in Melbourne. 1021 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:39,919 Speaker 3: Right because eight twenty would be too late to start 1022 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 3: on the East coast. That's the folk. Well, yeah, that's 1023 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 3: the reasoning. 1024 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 2: But a lot of rugby league games start at eight 1025 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 2: pm of course, but then it's only a two hour 1026 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 2: They finished an hour forty, that's right. 1027 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,239 Speaker 3: The Broncos lose very quickly because they're ruining this. 1028 00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:52,800 Speaker 5: I don't know. 1029 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:54,879 Speaker 3: I don't know anything about the really cool Madge. It's 1030 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,320 Speaker 3: just it's just it is strange. 1031 00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 5: Ricky. 1032 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,320 Speaker 3: I honestly don't know the reason that the latter of 1033 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 3: Rickey's raiders oh okay, exciting times. I honestly don't know why, 1034 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:05,759 Speaker 3: because I can't even think of a broadcasting reason why 1035 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:10,480 Speaker 3: because like from like for Fox footage perspective, like overlapping 1036 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 3: games aren't great. 1037 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 2: Clearly not the it's clearly not the business perspective. Sorry, 1038 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:21,839 Speaker 2: business priority preference. Sorry that we've got two games going 1039 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 2: on at the same time, one on one channel, one 1040 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:24,279 Speaker 2: on another. 1041 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 3: And then you've got the overlap on Sunday as well. Yeah, 1042 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 3: but that's because seven onces the game at three fifteen 1043 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:29,880 Speaker 3: to go into the news and then you have to 1044 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 3: work around that, and for whatever reason, they won't want 1045 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:33,359 Speaker 3: to play one at twelve thirty you like I want 1046 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 3: them to. 1047 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 2: Yes, it's round nineteen that I'm thinking of.

And beating Melbourne 1270 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 2: so that was Melbourne sin Kilda almost mirroring what they 1271 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 2: did last year, got lots of order, a sort of 1272 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 2: splattering of poor performances early in the first half of 1273 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 2: the season, and they've had a strong start to their 1274 00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 2: back end. 1275 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,520 Speaker 3: You know, they've won ten games every season this decade. Yes, 1276 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:43,400 Speaker 3: doesn't feel like that, but they feel like they've been 1277 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:46,400 Speaker 3: worse than that. But they're just consistently mediocre, which is, 1278 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:46,800 Speaker 3: you know. 1279 00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:49,200 Speaker 2: Which is a problem in the AFL as well.

But I'm still tipping on the favorites 1287 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:01,919 Speaker 3: because that's the safe thing to do when you're leading 1288 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 3: the cop. 1289 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 5: Does that mean tipping Sydney yep, wow. 1290 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:06,400 Speaker 3: I'll be tipping Sydney. 1291 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:09,480 Speaker 4: Will you be tipping Sydney Freemantle?
