It was for the neutral 0:00:15.000 --> 0:00:18.560 heart wrenching. But to see Port Adelaide will themselves across 0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:24.040 the line, they're treaders, unbelievable and after one of the 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:27.320 horror performances of last week, to see what you saw tonight, 0:00:27.440 --> 0:00:29.520 describe it to us. That was phenomenal. 0:00:30.920 --> 0:00:35.720 I hope I don't swear, because holy that was some 0:00:35.800 --> 0:00:40.400 sort of game. You have two posters in the last quarter, 0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:43.080 the Hawks have got all the ascendency and Port find 0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:47.760 a way for a grip. Nine days ago, I was 0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:50.360 sitting there going, if we bring our best, we can win. 0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:54.000 You finish second, you find a way and then to 0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:56.840 put in a performance like we did eight days ago, 0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:00.640 or you get pump by eighty four points in you. 0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:01.600 Other aging favorite. 0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:04.760 When you come up against a team who and a 0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:07.360 lot of puns are really that when you're a dollar 0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:11.280 below within a dollar sixty favorite Hawthorne away from home, 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.120 you've had some sort of form. Run for Port to 0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:22.559 find a way, it's character. It's an absolute character performance. 0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:26.600 And I felt ten days ago would turn the corner 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:27.200 as a club for. 0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:29.399 Grinding wins and then last week was a big step back. 0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:32.960 It was seen before reality checks and that's why you 0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:35.800 finished top four, to give yourself a chance to take 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:38.320 on the Swans who port have got a phenomenal record 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:39.280 against Sydney. 0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:39.759 Eight in a row. 0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:43.240 Yeah, so Sydney will remember the last time these two 0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:46.320 teams played, it was an absolute drubbing at this ground. 0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:53.760 The geez rest up, Recover, celebrate, faithful, massive crowd fifty 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:57.120 one thousand befull credit to the Port Adelais Footy Club, 0:01:57.160 --> 0:01:59.480 the coaches, Ken Inkley's been through the ring. 0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:01.800 Of this week up the whole club has. 0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:03.640 The clubs have been through the ringer. The players have 0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.919 been questioned for their endeavor and their toughness, and Tommy, 0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:07.840 that is toughness. 0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:12.519 Yeah, they deserve what they got, no doubt last week, 0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:15.280 no doubt. And you know where the thing is. That 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:18.600 is the response. He's the response. You want correct because. 0:02:18.400 --> 0:02:22.200 You lose that game straight su for a second year in. 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:24.160 A row, which you don't want. And that's what I said. 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:25.959 We wanted them to do what they did in the 0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:29.440 last six weeks. Tonight, right from the beginning are wrong. 0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:32.600 You could see the pressure was up the tackling pressure. 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:35.120 Was up and you knew that it meant something, and 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:36.280 it meant something during the week. 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:39.000 You could hear it. Canley's press conference yesterday. 0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:41.760 I was happy with it because I'm gone, he's on edge, 0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:44.680 he's angry, and I love that that filters. 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:46.600 Through to the players. I said it the Chris Davies beforehand. 0:02:46.919 --> 0:02:47.440 I'm happy. 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:50.239 That's the result you want, that's the sort of effort 0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:52.000 you want, and they got the result. 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:55.320 And just a word on Hawthorne two boys, I mean treads. 0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:57.760 They've got such a young, exciting least. They're going to 0:02:57.760 --> 0:02:59.600 be playing a lot of finals football with a great 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:02.440 coach and full credit to them. They put up a 0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:04.520 hell of a performance that it takes two to tango 0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:05.200 for a game like that. 0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:07.600 When you look at it, Port jumped him at the 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:11.119 start two goals and that's probably the difference in the match, really, 0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:12.359 isn't it Port start? 0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:13.960 Because the Hawks. 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:17.440 From second term lifted. They kicked four goal to Port's three. 0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:19.520 Then you look at the next quarter, it's two goals, 0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:21.200 three goals to two Hawthorn's way. 0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:23.560 They won the last three quarters treategy and lost the game. 0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:23.920 Yep. 0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:26.960 And that's how close it was and that's finals. It 0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:28.760 wasn't a pretty game, but it was a tough game. 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:30.080 Hawks. 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:32.480 One thing I love about him they don't change their 0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:36.040 game style. They keep attacking, and you just I just felt, 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:37.760 I'm just hoping we can hang on. 0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:38.400 We can hang on. 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:42.400 But full credit took opportunities, senior players stood up when 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:46.280 they had to, and Jesus it's a fair way. And 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:50.680 as both teams give a guard of honor for Luke 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:52.119 Bruce in his three hundredth game. 0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:56.160 Yep, phenomenal match and tread as you talk about you 0:03:56.200 --> 0:04:00.680 know the game being inches if not for two posters 0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:02.680 Hawthorne are playing in the premiums, it's that close. 0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:05.120 That's how close it is. And now you talk about 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:09.280 teams can be contending, you never know. In footage the 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.960 dynamic looks good, the list looks good, the way they 0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:14.360 play looks good. But you only can look at the 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:17.960 opportunities you've got. And yeah for Luke Bruce and Jack 0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:20.359 Gunston who looked like they're going to go on again 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:23.560 for Hawthorne, Jesus, Hawks haven't lost any favors. 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:25.120 And I know when I dealt with. 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.760 My last Thursday night lost when we lost to back 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:29.560 up on Friday and seeing the way they play, it's 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:31.280 a breath of fresh air from AFIL. 0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:34.160 Footage after the game thanks to acet Transport Solutions. Give 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:36.280 us your calls, folks, eight double two to three double 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:39.000 A double A. We'll get the song and we'll hear 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:41.800 all of that. But fornight, for tonight it was put 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:45.000 Adelaide winning by three points. Amazing game of football. Let's 0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:46.599 get to the calls. Now, let's go to ner Yuppa. 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:49.760 Martin is going to kick things off for us KA Martin. 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:55.279 So many Well, you bought a game at different from 0:04:55.360 --> 0:05:00.800 last week. But I thought the umpiring was I couldn't 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:03.640 believe that holding the ball and some of the tackling 0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:05.440 and what we get, you know, I mean their first 0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:09.520 two goals that they scored were from free kicks that 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:12.520 we give away and whatever. But oh what you know? 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:16.200 And by the way, can you be seeing those reporters again? 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:20.680 The reporters are well, they're only doing their job. 0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:25.640 I know, can get a bit heeded because people's lives 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:27.320 are involved in it, but they're doing their job. And 0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:29.000 you know, I think the best way to answer back 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.800 on any stuff is to win. Yeah, well, look for me. 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:32.800 It was more so. 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:36.279 The first thing I got out of it was he's 0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:39.520 on edge, he's not taking shit there, and I'm found, Yeah, yeah, 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:42.400 that's what I'm and I want that intensity at the 0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:45.159 whole week, the whole group, and I think it was 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.080 I asked Chris Davies about it tonight before the game 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:51.680 and it was pretty much exactly that. It's been an 0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:53.640 intense week to me, and we've trained better than what 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:56.039 we did the week before, which we did get reports 0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:57.600 that they sort of went through the motions and they 0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:01.000 got treated as such. So this week edged stuff and 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:03.080 it had to be look at the way that final 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:03.600 was played. 0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:06.400 That is finals football. That's what it takes, doesn't it, Timmy. 0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:07.400 That's what it takes to win. 0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:10.360 You two know that better than anyone.

I reckon, but I have to say, 0:08:57.600 --> 0:08:58.400 got a soft. 0:08:58.160 --> 0:08:59.800 Sport for the Hawks. 0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:04.920 Think we just needed Hawk to uh we we we, 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:09.760 We just needed the Hawks to like a sorry, guys, 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:11.360 lots of lots of words a little bit because I've 0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:12.599 got a bit of a soft spot for them. We 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:19.000 just needed the Hawk to a you know, maybe get 0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:20.959 a little bit more of the insight gift. He's in 0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:23.480 the first quarter, seriously, but good on your hinkers. You're 0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:25.600 safe for another week and next week. 0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:27.880 We just need Port to. 0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:35.520 Just bring that first quarter effort like they did tonight. 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:37.439 Thanks guys, Yeah, good good stuff. 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:40.520 Thanks for that, Larry. We might just head on into 0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:43.480 the rooms because Port Adelaide's players are making their way 0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:45.160 down there now and as you can imagine a lot 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:48.520 of relief and elation after that performance as we go 0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:49.280 down there for you. 0:09:49.360 --> 0:10:41.520 Now, well. 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:44.079 About you have it. 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.000 We'll head on back to the rooms a little bit later. 0:10:46.000 --> 0:10:47.640 We'll try and get an interview Sammy Daddo. We'll be 0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:50.439 doing some work as we continue after the game. Thanks 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:53.560 to Ace that Transport Solutions, we'll keep a close eyes 0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:55.120 well on Jason Horn, France. It's looked to be in 0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:58.120 pretty good spirits traders. Hopefully just some cramping, like you said, 0:10:58.200 --> 0:10:59.120 because yeah. 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:02.280 I want to suspect it's it's cramping, because if you're 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:04.080 doing a real stretch to see if you can play, 0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:05.760 it's not a hamstring. 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:08.240 Well, the whole leg was stiff. That's what I thought 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:11.760 was cramp rather than hammy. Because the test hammy, you 0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:14.280 sort of your Olympic with a half leg. Yeah, having 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:16.079 done too many Yeah. 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.319 Even the same test is the same thing. But if 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.040 he's pined to hammy, they're not testing. 0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:23.439 Him, you know what I mean, just going all scan 0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:26.120 and see how big the tear is. Yeah. Yeah, so 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:27.480 that's what happens. 0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:29.880 He will hopefully be okay to play it next week. 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:31.760 Let's head out to the Gold Coast. Matthew is on 0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:32.680 the line. Hi, Matthew. 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:34.800 Oh good even guys, how are you? 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:36.440 Yeah? 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:40.199 Pretty?

This tonight was everything about oh Alberton 0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:20.240 and Port Adelaide. 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:25.640 Just so just so proud, great Cole Matthew. Yeah, it 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:26.240 is a bit like that. 0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:27.959 And I'll tell you what treaders you played in a 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:30.640 couple of them, Port and Hawthorne, Timmy. They just do 0:12:30.720 --> 0:12:33.960 close finals. Remember Johnny Barker in one the prelimb back 0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:36.640 in twenty fourteen I think it was, and then tonight 0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:38.040 all decided by Lesson to kick. 0:12:38.080 --> 0:12:39.839 They just don't do blowouts, do they do? 0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:43.559 Twenty twenty here against Richmond prelim final, Yeah, there was 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:45.800 there's probably the Bulldog's one was an ugly one. But 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:49.240 to celebrate them now, I just sit back and look 0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:51.439 at it, runye and go. It could have gone either way. 0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:54.920 Careers are either ended or made or on these sorts 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:55.280 of nights. 0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:56.079 Well they had to do it. 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:58.160 Much like you look at Hawthorne. You look at Hawthorne, 0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:00.280 you look at Brisbane, you look at the CA. That's 0:13:00.760 --> 0:13:04.520 I can remember premierships in that area, catspeak the Saints 0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:07.600 by kick, Chapman goal, you know what I mean. Brisbane, 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:13.240 get over Collingwood, buy a kick in two two thousand 0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:13.559 and two. 0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:15.599 You need you need that to go. 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:18.320 You're what everything go you way and everyone'say his luck. 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:21.599 I don't think luck comes into footy. Hard work, discipline, 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:25.280 staying longer. And there's some instances that I think we 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:28.880 highlighted in the call, but little ones like bringing the 0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:33.400 ball to ground. Jordan sweets Chase we can talk about 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:36.800 he doesn't tackle goal will and drew. 0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:41.160 Those on one bloody percenters that he does. You know, 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:42.960 he just turns things around. He's amazing. 0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:48.400 It's it's a fine line and you know what, and 0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:49.880 last week you got your wack. 0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:50.920 This week you enjoy. 0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:54.080 But the mentality must be if you're going to keep going, 0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:56.000 getting ready to the top four. Get ready, We've got 0:13:56.040 --> 0:14:00.720 a flood Sydney and Sydney and opportunity right now. Port 0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:04.720 was the team after twenty three games that we play. 0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:07.320 I didn't forget now, but twenty four rounds we were 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:11.280 the second best team. We've now earned the right to 0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:13.600 be the second best team. We're in the final four. 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:16.920 Yep, you know what I mean. Yep. And realistically, well, 0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:19.000 it's like to be the best. That's the thing. Yeah, 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:20.360 You've got to go to Sydney. 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.120 Sydney will be breathing fire from the last time these 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:26.680 two teams played, and only that intensity will. 0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:27.840 Get win you into a Grand Final. 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:30.240 We're going to head down to the rooms now, Sammy 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:33.200 Daddo is down there for us. Sammy, I imagine a 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:36.320 very jubilant change room down there at the moment. 0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:39.840 Yeah, Tommy, I am joined by Mitch georgiadis here the 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:41.160 rooms as Timm. 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:43.000 You can hear it to me. The rooms are pumping. 0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:45.240 Just try and walk us through those last few moments 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:45.960 in the fourth quarter. 0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:46.640 Mitch. 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:49.280 Yeah, it was an amazing last quarter. 0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:51.760 Wasn't There as a bit of momentu swing both ways, 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.160 But we just knew what would win in. It was 0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:57.560 contest pressure that was our the whole day, the whole week. 0:14:57.720 --> 0:14:59.600 So we knew if we bought that would be in 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:01.560 a good set, which. 0:15:01.360 --> 0:15:03.920 Weren't treader phenomenal made. I thought you were great kick 0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:08.120 three two, nine, touches, involved in lots of play, let 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:11.160 into some beautiful little pockets and shots on goal. Can 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:13.800 you take it through the week because after when I 0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:17.040 say the week, last Thursday, the eight days from getting 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:19.800 as poor a performance as we've seen. Hey, you go 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:22.920 back on the horse what you're focused on because there 0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:24.800 was a lot of outside noise to throw you off 0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:25.320 your tracks. 0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:26.080 Yeah, you're right. 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:28.600 Well, well last Thursday was there's not to scratch for us, 0:15:28.680 --> 0:15:31.480 and and we knew that straight away, and we reviews it. 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:35.600 We're in the forty eight hours. We are assess it 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:35.960 and then. 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:38.280 We moved on as quick as possible, and we've looked forward. 0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:38.720 To this weekend. 0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:43.520 Like you said, just started over almost and you built 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:45.000 the energy through the week. We thought we bought really 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:47.240 great energy throughout the training throughout. We want to get 0:15:47.280 --> 0:15:50.480 better throughout the week. And yeah, it came together nice night. 0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:50.880 Which is great. 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:53.760 You got Sydney and Sydney next Friday, rest up and 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:54.320 take them on. 0:15:54.400 --> 0:15:55.720 We've got a good record against them. 0:15:55.800 --> 0:15:58.680 But the big question probably for us is horn Francis 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:00.000 comes off with hopefully cramp. 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:01.000 Is there anything worse than that? 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:03.360 You know, that's the world's worst cramp for your records. 0:16:03.800 --> 0:16:05.480 I still manage to get a ground ball with a cramp. 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:06.600 I'm trying to find a ball out there. 0:16:08.000 --> 0:16:09.560 It was funny, goodn't it. It was caught in the 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.600 center and then the ball comes back to him. But 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:14.760 you'd have to be proud about the boys' ability just 0:16:14.840 --> 0:16:17.360 to hang in because it looked so many times we're 0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:21.440 almost gone hit the posts. Sicily, you guys go forward, 0:16:21.480 --> 0:16:23.880 you kick a beautiful goal. We just had that ability 0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:27.400 that we'd probably nine days ago, thought that's where we'd 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:29.600 really improve, and last week was that step back. Did 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:31.920 it feel like you were just kicking back into gear 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:33.360 and refusing to lose, because. 0:16:33.200 --> 0:16:33.840 That's what I looked like. 0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:34.240 Yeah. 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:36.160 Absolutely, there's almost a time for us to grow up 0:16:36.160 --> 0:16:38.240 a little bit and show real maturity about the group. 0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:40.920 Obviously last week was disappointing, like we said, and to 0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:43.920 have moments tonight. Every player out there had their individual 0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:46.880 moments and that's what goes across the line. 0:16:46.920 --> 0:16:50.640 Really, Mitch, congratulations a really good game yourself, mate, Love 0:16:50.680 --> 0:16:52.200 the way you're attacking the football. 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:54.760 I spoke to Chris Davies prior to the game. 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:59.680 I said, I loved King's attitude at the media conferences. 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:04.040 I felt like he was on edge because it meant 0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:06.480 something and we weren't pleased with what happened the week before. 0:17:06.640 --> 0:17:09.480 Was that intensity around the whole week's training. 0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:13.360 Yeah, I mean, yeah, it was it. Can you set 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:14.480 it up really well yesterday? 0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:16.520 I think we put ourselves in a great position this 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:18.679 year to finished second in the ladder and get ourselves 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:22.000 a second opportunity. We knew our football was good enough 0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:25.040 and the moments we individually had it as a teams 0:17:25.040 --> 0:17:26.159 and I showed. 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:29.479 That And yeah, sorry, make I was just going to say, Mitch. Obviously, 0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:32.879 Charlie pulled out before the game, just a virus. He 0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:34.720 looked like he went through a bit of a searching 0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:37.560 fitness test but wasn't right to go. Was that the case. 0:17:37.760 --> 0:17:38.960 He looked like he had a bit of a nasty 0:17:39.040 --> 0:17:39.680 cough or something. 0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:41.320 Yeah, as far as I'm presuned, I think that's what 0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:43.720 it was. I think, Yeah, last minute he just wasn't 0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:47.080 quite riding. Yeah, we weren't going to take any chances, 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:47.480 that's for sure. 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:50.680 Yeah, and you're, like Timmy said, your moment in that 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:54.720 last quarter, two goals in a clutch moment, the hook 0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:57.080 around the body, the one from forty five where scores 0:17:57.119 --> 0:17:59.720 were level. I mean, to stand up in a big quarter, 0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:02.119 in big game, you must be pretty happy with your 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:02.679 own work too. 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:05.200 Yeah, I was happy with that last quarter to stand 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:06.600 I think kicking a couple of goals. Like you said, 0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:08.120 I thought I competed. 0:18:07.800 --> 0:18:10.280 Well throughout the nine and although I didn't stick early on, 0:18:10.480 --> 0:18:12.200 I got some opportunities late in the game and I 0:18:12.240 --> 0:18:14.159 felt like I made the motors, made most of it. 0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:16.720 So yeah, it was It was a nice way to finish. 0:18:16.960 --> 0:18:20.080 You certainly did, mate. Young Burgers had to go back. 0:18:20.200 --> 0:18:22.200 Jase Berglan had to go back to half back, and 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.240
