Speaker 1: Five a football post match callers.
Speaker 2: For the time not to feel a little bit emotional
Speaker 2: after a match like that. It was for the neutral
Speaker 2: heart wrenching. But to see Port Adelaide will themselves across
Speaker 2: the line, they're treaders, unbelievable and after one of the
Speaker 2: horror performances of last week, to see what you saw tonight,
Speaker 2: describe it to us. That was phenomenal.
Speaker 3: I hope I don't swear, because holy that was some
Speaker 3: sort of game. You have two posters in the last quarter,
Speaker 3: the Hawks have got all the ascendency and Port find
Speaker 3: a way for a grip. Nine days ago, I was
Speaker 3: sitting there going, if we bring our best, we can win.
Speaker 3: You finish second, you find a way and then to
Speaker 3: put in a performance like we did eight days ago,
Speaker 3: or you get pump by eighty four points in you.
Speaker 1: Other aging favorite.
Speaker 3: When you come up against a team who and a
Speaker 3: lot of puns are really that when you're a dollar
Speaker 3: below within a dollar sixty favorite Hawthorne away from home,
Speaker 3: you've had some sort of form. Run for Port to
Speaker 3: find a way, it's character. It's an absolute character performance.
Speaker 3: And I felt ten days ago would turn the corner
Speaker 3: as a club for.
Speaker 1: Grinding wins and then last week was a big step back.
Speaker 3: It was seen before reality checks and that's why you
Speaker 3: finished top four, to give yourself a chance to take
Speaker 3: on the Swans who port have got a phenomenal record
Speaker 3: against Sydney.
Speaker 2: Eight in a row.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Sydney will remember the last time these two
Speaker 3: teams played, it was an absolute drubbing at this ground.
Speaker 3: The geez rest up, Recover, celebrate, faithful, massive crowd fifty
Speaker 3: one thousand befull credit to the Port Adelais Footy Club,
Speaker 3: the coaches, Ken Inkley's been through the ring.
Speaker 1: Of this week up the whole club has.
Speaker 3: The clubs have been through the ringer. The players have
Speaker 3: been questioned for their endeavor and their toughness, and Tommy,
Speaker 3: that is toughness.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they deserve what they got, no doubt last week,
Speaker 4: no doubt. And you know where the thing is. That
Speaker 4: is the response. He's the response. You want correct because.
Speaker 3: You lose that game straight su for a second year in.
Speaker 1: A row, which you don't want. And that's what I said.
Speaker 5: We wanted them to do what they did in the
Speaker 5: last six weeks. Tonight, right from the beginning are wrong.
Speaker 1: You could see the pressure was up the tackling pressure.
Speaker 5: Was up and you knew that it meant something, and
Speaker 5: it meant something during the week.
Speaker 1: You could hear it. Canley's press conference yesterday.
Speaker 5: I was happy with it because I'm gone, he's on edge,
Speaker 5: he's angry, and I love that that filters.
Speaker 1: Through to the players. I said it the Chris Davies beforehand.
Speaker 1: I'm happy.
Speaker 5: That's the result you want, that's the sort of effort
Speaker 5: you want, and they got the result.
Speaker 2: And just a word on Hawthorne two boys, I mean treads.
Speaker 2: They've got such a young, exciting least. They're going to
Speaker 2: be playing a lot of finals football with a great
Speaker 2: coach and full credit to them. They put up a
Speaker 2: hell of a performance that it takes two to tango
Speaker 2: for a game like that.
Speaker 3: When you look at it, Port jumped him at the
Speaker 3: start two goals and that's probably the difference in the match, really,
Speaker 3: isn't it Port start?
Speaker 1: Because the Hawks.
Speaker 3: From second term lifted. They kicked four goal to Port's three.
Speaker 3: Then you look at the next quarter, it's two goals,
Speaker 3: three goals to two Hawthorn's way.
Speaker 1: They won the last three quarters treategy and lost the game.
Speaker 6: Yep.
Speaker 3: And that's how close it was and that's finals. It
Speaker 3: wasn't a pretty game, but it was a tough game.
Speaker 1: Hawks.
Speaker 3: One thing I love about him they don't change their
Speaker 3: game style. They keep attacking, and you just I just felt,
Speaker 3: I'm just hoping we can hang on.
Speaker 1: We can hang on.
Speaker 3: But full credit took opportunities, senior players stood up when
Speaker 3: they had to, and Jesus it's a fair way. And
Speaker 3: as both teams give a guard of honor for Luke
Speaker 3: Bruce in his three hundredth game.
Speaker 2: Yep, phenomenal match and tread as you talk about you
Speaker 2: know the game being inches if not for two posters
Speaker 2: Hawthorne are playing in the premiums, it's that close.
Speaker 3: That's how close it is. And now you talk about
Speaker 3: teams can be contending, you never know. In footage the
Speaker 3: dynamic looks good, the list looks good, the way they
Speaker 3: play looks good. But you only can look at the
Speaker 3: opportunities you've got. And yeah for Luke Bruce and Jack
Speaker 3: Gunston who looked like they're going to go on again
Speaker 3: for Hawthorne, Jesus, Hawks haven't lost any favors.
Speaker 1: And I know when I dealt with.
Speaker 3: My last Thursday night lost when we lost to back
Speaker 3: up on Friday and seeing the way they play, it's
Speaker 3: a breath of fresh air from AFIL.
Speaker 2: Footage after the game thanks to acet Transport Solutions. Give
Speaker 2: us your calls, folks, eight double two to three double
Speaker 2: A double A. We'll get the song and we'll hear
Speaker 2: all of that. But fornight, for tonight it was put
Speaker 2: Adelaide winning by three points. Amazing game of football. Let's
Speaker 2: get to the calls. Now, let's go to ner Yuppa.
Speaker 2: Martin is going to kick things off for us KA Martin.
Speaker 7: So many Well, you bought a game at different from
Speaker 7: last week. But I thought the umpiring was I couldn't
Speaker 7: believe that holding the ball and some of the tackling
Speaker 7: and what we get, you know, I mean their first
Speaker 7: two goals that they scored were from free kicks that
Speaker 7: we give away and whatever. But oh what you know?
Speaker 7: And by the way, can you be seeing those reporters again?
Speaker 1: The reporters are well, they're only doing their job.
Speaker 3: I know, can get a bit heeded because people's lives
Speaker 3: are involved in it, but they're doing their job. And
Speaker 3: you know, I think the best way to answer back
Speaker 3: on any stuff is to win. Yeah, well, look for me.
Speaker 1: It was more so.
Speaker 5: The first thing I got out of it was he's
Speaker 5: on edge, he's not taking shit there, and I'm found, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: that's what I'm and I want that intensity at the
Speaker 5: whole week, the whole group, and I think it was
Speaker 5: I asked Chris Davies about it tonight before the game
Speaker 5: and it was pretty much exactly that. It's been an
Speaker 5: intense week to me, and we've trained better than what
Speaker 5: we did the week before, which we did get reports
Speaker 5: that they sort of went through the motions and they
Speaker 5: got treated as such. So this week edged stuff and
Speaker 5: it had to be look at the way that final
Speaker 5: was played.
Speaker 1: That is finals football. That's what it takes, doesn't it, Timmy.
Speaker 1: That's what it takes to win.
Speaker 2: You two know that better than anyone. For the fourth time,
Speaker 2: Ken Hinckley is into a prelim final. Let's get to Greta.
Speaker 2: A tough night for votes tread as you will have
Speaker 2: to sort through that, but Greta from Melbourne.
Speaker 1: What a win? Hey, Greta.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, it was a great win.
Speaker 9: It was very stressful.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we all lost a few years tonight
Speaker 2: off the ticker.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did two and a few vocal cords.
Speaker 5: Glad my mind's gone, Timmy. Yeah, well now we have
Speaker 5: to go back to Greta.
Speaker 1: We didn't get the three too.
Speaker 2: We'll get Greta back. Greta, are you there? Can you
Speaker 2: give us your three?

Speaker 9: Was an absolutely amazing game from the first found Sport
Speaker 9: really stepped up with beg takele and I'm so stormary
Speaker 9: that came over for nothing, contrasted them from sports Good on.
Speaker 2: Your Stacy, Yeah, it was. It was full of Hawthorne
Speaker 2: fans tonight. They came in there drives, they drove across
Speaker 2: from Melbourn, didn't they a lot of them? Timmy, We
Speaker 2: saw so many support. Amazing that before the game, but
Speaker 2: I said, I like it.
Speaker 1: I love that. It's very rare you get that sort
Speaker 1: of you know, almost fifty to fifty crown pockets.
Speaker 2: Timmy, weren't there onagon. Twenty thousand of the fans tonight.
Speaker 1: Were Hawthorne, which is great.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2: It was a really good atmosphere out there. Were just
Speaker 2: getting some pictures. We might just we're probably still got
Speaker 2: a minute or two. We'll maybe take one more call
Speaker 2: before we head down to the rooms. Ken Hinkley is
Speaker 2: just heading there now.
Speaker 1: It's still out there on the ground.
Speaker 2: Let's go to Stephanie at Gauler High. Stephanie, Hi, what
Speaker 2: a great game one of the Stephanie.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I couldn't watch it in the end.
Speaker 2: Stephan I have to keep watching it. Nearly thumped me
Speaker 2: in getting too old for it. We'll be back again
Speaker 2: Friday night. It'll be Treaders against Sydney at the s
Speaker 2: c G and another prelim final. So we've got three
Speaker 2: of the four prelim finalists. Decided one to come tomorrow, Timmy.
Speaker 2: With g WS up against Brisbane, let's get out to Glenell.
Speaker 2: Glarry is on the line.
Speaker 13: Get that guys, whole hardly agree with all the previous callers.
Speaker 13: Never tearis apart. I reckon, but I have to say,
Speaker 13: got a soft.
Speaker 7: Sport for the Hawks.
Speaker 13: Think we just needed Hawk to uh we we we,
Speaker 13: We just needed the Hawks to like a sorry, guys,
Speaker 13: lots of lots of words a little bit because I've
Speaker 13: got a bit of a soft spot for them. We
Speaker 13: just needed the Hawk to a you know, maybe get
Speaker 13: a little bit more of the insight gift. He's in
Speaker 13: the first quarter, seriously, but good on your hinkers. You're
Speaker 13: safe for another week and next week.
Speaker 14: We just need Port to.
Speaker 13: Just bring that first quarter effort like they did tonight.
Speaker 1: Thanks guys, Yeah, good good stuff.
Speaker 2: Thanks for that, Larry. We might just head on into
Speaker 2: the rooms because Port Adelaide's players are making their way
Speaker 2: down there now and as you can imagine a lot
Speaker 2: of relief and elation after that performance as we go
Speaker 2: down there for you.
Speaker 8: Now, well.
Speaker 1: About you have it.
Speaker 2: We'll head on back to the rooms a little bit later.
Speaker 2: We'll try and get an interview Sammy Daddo. We'll be
Speaker 2: doing some work as we continue after the game. Thanks
Speaker 2: to Ace that Transport Solutions, we'll keep a close eyes
Speaker 2: well on Jason Horn, France. It's looked to be in
Speaker 2: pretty good spirits traders. Hopefully just some cramping, like you said,
Speaker 2: because yeah.
Speaker 3: I want to suspect it's it's cramping, because if you're
Speaker 3: doing a real stretch to see if you can play,
Speaker 3: it's not a hamstring.
Speaker 5: Well, the whole leg was stiff. That's what I thought
Speaker 5: was cramp rather than hammy. Because the test hammy, you
Speaker 5: sort of your Olympic with a half leg. Yeah, having
Speaker 5: done too many Yeah.
Speaker 3: Even the same test is the same thing. But if
Speaker 3: he's pined to hammy, they're not testing.
Speaker 1: Him, you know what I mean, just going all scan
Speaker 1: and see how big the tear is. Yeah. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: that's what happens.
Speaker 2: He will hopefully be okay to play it next week.
Speaker 2: Let's head out to the Gold Coast. Matthew is on
Speaker 2: the line. Hi, Matthew.
Speaker 6: Oh good even guys, how are you?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Pretty? Uh well, just the last week leaved Matthew.
Speaker 15: Hey, Timmy, here you go and try to smell boy boys.
Speaker 6: Okay, we'll we start on my.
Speaker 14: I believe it.
Speaker 16: I'd be arrogant fans.
Speaker 14: Oh my god, there's someting tears tonight.
Speaker 16: Boys, Just some of that it doesn't hurt, So do
Speaker 16: enjoy that.
Speaker 6: I know we've got to enjoy and look forward to Sydney.
Speaker 16: But boy, just looking at rear view mirror and just
Speaker 16: see that, like twenty thirteen we've be colling with It
Speaker 16: was there at the MPG and the shocked they were.
Speaker 12: Just assuming they were going to make it the next week.
Speaker 16: I've heard nothing but about Hawthorne having two weeks on
Speaker 16: the road getting to Sydney.
Speaker 14: Even by the media, let alone the players.
Speaker 16: It has been a back to the wall and that
Speaker 16: is Port Adelaide. This tonight was everything about oh Alberton
Speaker 16: and Port Adelaide.
Speaker 1: Just so just so proud, great Cole Matthew. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: is a bit like that.
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what treaders you played in a
Speaker 2: couple of them, Port and Hawthorne, Timmy. They just do
Speaker 2: close finals. Remember Johnny Barker in one the prelimb back
Speaker 2: in twenty fourteen I think it was, and then tonight
Speaker 2: all decided by Lesson to kick.
Speaker 1: They just don't do blowouts, do they do?
Speaker 3: Twenty twenty here against Richmond prelim final, Yeah, there was
Speaker 3: there's probably the Bulldog's one was an ugly one. But
Speaker 3: to celebrate them now, I just sit back and look
Speaker 3: at it, runye and go. It could have gone either way.
Speaker 3: Careers are either ended or made or on these sorts
Speaker 3: of nights.
Speaker 1: Well they had to do it.
Speaker 3: Much like you look at Hawthorne. You look at Hawthorne,
Speaker 3: you look at Brisbane, you look at the CA. That's
Speaker 3: I can remember premierships in that area, catspeak the Saints
Speaker 3: by kick, Chapman goal, you know what I mean. Brisbane,
Speaker 3: get over Collingwood, buy a kick in two two thousand
Speaker 3: and two.
Speaker 1: You need you need that to go.
Speaker 3: You're what everything go you way and everyone'say his luck.
Speaker 3: I don't think luck comes into footy. Hard work, discipline,
Speaker 3: staying longer. And there's some instances that I think we
Speaker 3: highlighted in the call, but little ones like bringing the
Speaker 3: ball to ground. Jordan sweets Chase we can talk about
Speaker 3: he doesn't tackle goal will and drew.
Speaker 1: Those on one bloody percenters that he does. You know,
Speaker 1: he just turns things around. He's amazing.
Speaker 3: It's it's a fine line and you know what, and
Speaker 3: last week you got your wack.
Speaker 1: This week you enjoy.
Speaker 3: But the mentality must be if you're going to keep going,
Speaker 3: getting ready to the top four. Get ready, We've got
Speaker 3: a flood Sydney and Sydney and opportunity right now. Port
Speaker 3: was the team after twenty three games that we play.
Speaker 3: I didn't forget now, but twenty four rounds we were
Speaker 3: the second best team. We've now earned the right to
Speaker 3: be the second best team. We're in the final four.
Speaker 1: Yep, you know what I mean. Yep. And realistically, well,
Speaker 1: it's like to be the best. That's the thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: You've got to go to Sydney.
Speaker 3: Sydney will be breathing fire from the last time these
Speaker 3: two teams played, and only that intensity will.
Speaker 1: Get win you into a Grand Final.
Speaker 2: We're going to head down to the rooms now, Sammy
Speaker 2: Daddo is down there for us. Sammy, I imagine a
Speaker 2: very jubilant change room down there at the moment.
Speaker 17: Yeah, Tommy, I am joined by Mitch georgiadis here the
Speaker 17: rooms as Timm.
Speaker 1: You can hear it to me. The rooms are pumping.
Speaker 18: Just try and walk us through those last few moments
Speaker 18: in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1: Mitch.
Speaker 11: Yeah, it was an amazing last quarter.
Speaker 17: Wasn't There as a bit of momentu swing both ways,
Speaker 17: But we just knew what would win in. It was
Speaker 17: contest pressure that was our the whole day, the whole week.
Speaker 17: So we knew if we bought that would be in
Speaker 17: a good set, which.
Speaker 3: Weren't treader phenomenal made. I thought you were great kick
Speaker 3: three two, nine, touches, involved in lots of play, let
Speaker 3: into some beautiful little pockets and shots on goal. Can
Speaker 3: you take it through the week because after when I
Speaker 3: say the week, last Thursday, the eight days from getting
Speaker 3: as poor a performance as we've seen. Hey, you go
Speaker 3: back on the horse what you're focused on because there
Speaker 3: was a lot of outside noise to throw you off
Speaker 3: your tracks.
Speaker 11: Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 17: Well, well last Thursday was there's not to scratch for us,
Speaker 17: and and we knew that straight away, and we reviews it.
Speaker 11: We're in the forty eight hours. We are assess it
Speaker 11: and then.
Speaker 17: We moved on as quick as possible, and we've looked forward.
Speaker 11: To this weekend.
Speaker 17: Like you said, just started over almost and you built
Speaker 17: the energy through the week. We thought we bought really
Speaker 17: great energy throughout the training throughout. We want to get
Speaker 17: better throughout the week. And yeah, it came together nice night.
Speaker 1: Which is great.
Speaker 3: You got Sydney and Sydney next Friday, rest up and
Speaker 3: take them on.
Speaker 1: We've got a good record against them.
Speaker 3: But the big question probably for us is horn Francis
Speaker 3: comes off with hopefully cramp.
Speaker 1: Is there anything worse than that?
Speaker 17: You know, that's the world's worst cramp for your records.
Speaker 17: I still manage to get a ground ball with a cramp.
Speaker 17: I'm trying to find a ball out there.
Speaker 3: It was funny, goodn't it. It was caught in the
Speaker 3: center and then the ball comes back to him. But
Speaker 3: you'd have to be proud about the boys' ability just
Speaker 3: to hang in because it looked so many times we're
Speaker 3: almost gone hit the posts. Sicily, you guys go forward,
Speaker 3: you kick a beautiful goal. We just had that ability
Speaker 3: that we'd probably nine days ago, thought that's where we'd
Speaker 3: really improve, and last week was that step back. Did
Speaker 3: it feel like you were just kicking back into gear
Speaker 3: and refusing to lose, because.
Speaker 1: That's what I looked like.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 17: Absolutely, there's almost a time for us to grow up
Speaker 17: a little bit and show real maturity about the group.
Speaker 17: Obviously last week was disappointing, like we said, and to
Speaker 17: have moments tonight. Every player out there had their individual
Speaker 17: moments and that's what goes across the line.
Speaker 5: Really, Mitch, congratulations a really good game yourself, mate, Love
Speaker 5: the way you're attacking the football.
Speaker 1: I spoke to Chris Davies prior to the game.
Speaker 5: I said, I loved King's attitude at the media conferences.
Speaker 5: I felt like he was on edge because it meant
Speaker 5: something and we weren't pleased with what happened the week before.
Speaker 1: Was that intensity around the whole week's training.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, yeah, it was it. Can you set
Speaker 11: it up really well yesterday?
Speaker 17: I think we put ourselves in a great position this
Speaker 17: year to finished second in the ladder and get ourselves
Speaker 17: a second opportunity. We knew our football was good enough
Speaker 17: and the moments we individually had it as a teams
Speaker 17: and I showed.
Speaker 2: That And yeah, sorry, make I was just going to say, Mitch. Obviously,
Speaker 2: Charlie pulled out before the game, just a virus. He
Speaker 2: looked like he went through a bit of a searching
Speaker 2: fitness test but wasn't right to go. Was that the case.
Speaker 2: He looked like he had a bit of a nasty
Speaker 2: cough or something.
Speaker 17: Yeah, as far as I'm presuned, I think that's what
Speaker 17: it was. I think, Yeah, last minute he just wasn't
Speaker 17: quite riding. Yeah, we weren't going to take any chances,
Speaker 17: that's for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're, like Timmy said, your moment in that
Speaker 2: last quarter, two goals in a clutch moment, the hook
Speaker 2: around the body, the one from forty five where scores
Speaker 2: were level. I mean, to stand up in a big quarter,
Speaker 2: in big game, you must be pretty happy with your
Speaker 2: own work too.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I was happy with that last quarter to stand
Speaker 11: I think kicking a couple of goals. Like you said,
Speaker 11: I thought I competed.
Speaker 17: Well throughout the nine and although I didn't stick early on,
Speaker 17: I got some opportunities late in the game and I
Speaker 17: felt like I made the motors, made most of it.
Speaker 11: So yeah, it was It was a nice way to finish.
Speaker 1: You certainly did, mate. Young Burgers had to go back.
Speaker 5: Jase Berglan had to go back to half back, and
Speaker 5: Jesus looked like he played a thousand games here.
Speaker 1: He was outstanding.
Speaker 17: He was good, wasn't he fires around, He's in the
Speaker 17: air a lot, he does it. Always pretty special player
Speaker 17: for a boat that's.
Speaker 1: Not all that big.
Speaker 3: Good nickname too, By the way, Slim Slim, does that
Speaker 3: encourage you to get that?
Speaker 11: Did she don't know where it's coming from. I'm assuming
Speaker 11: it's got to be.
Speaker 1: Does that put him off getting in the gym?
Speaker 17: Yeah, I don't think he's a massive fan of the gym,
Speaker 17: but when you've got his talents and I think you
Speaker 17: don't need to as much.
Speaker 3: So what's the plan now? If you boys had a
Speaker 3: chat to Kenny and what's the brief heading into Sydney
Speaker 3: at the seven day.
Speaker 17: Yeah, we're just trying to enjoy it. I mean, this
Speaker 17: is a pretty good feeling right now. I think we're
Speaker 17: they going to a pre living, especially after the week
Speaker 17: we've had it. Yeah, we're just try and enjoy with
Speaker 17: our friends and family and then we'll assess it and
Speaker 17: we'll move on. And it's a big challenged next week
Speaker 17: in Sydney and for.
Speaker 3: The boys and for the boys who enjoy it. Do
Speaker 3: you get to have an ale to enjoy it?
Speaker 11: Well, I'm sure we'll one or two in there somewhere after.
Speaker 3: We wash it down with a pizza with a lot,
Speaker 3: it'll be all good, absolutely breakfast.
Speaker 1: The Championship plays World n Mins.
Speaker 2: You're outstanding to night. It was a hell of a game.
Speaker 2: It's it's one of the great games we've seen not
Speaker 2: just this year, but for a long time, and you
Speaker 2: were a key part of it. Three goals in a
Speaker 2: low scoring, tough contested final. Congratulations, enjoy it, and good
Speaker 2: luck again.
Speaker 1: The next week.
Speaker 11: Thanks guys, appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Mitch, George Arni's what an outstanding game, and treaders, you
Speaker 2: were lauding his efforts throughout the game. Three goals off
Speaker 2: a knee, forty three goals for the season.
Speaker 1: He's been huge, yep. And he's taken every opportunity.
Speaker 3: We saw him burst onto the blocks and then he
Speaker 3: went through it, you know, and he was a beautiful
Speaker 3: kicking and something twenty goals two or something early on
Speaker 3: his career.
Speaker 1: Then got a bit of the.
Speaker 3: Yips and then unfortunately did the knee, and then we're
Speaker 3: just hoping he could get through a year and just
Speaker 3: build on it. If you thought he kicked twenty goals
Speaker 3: in fifteen games coming back, but jeez, he's been phenomenal
Speaker 3: and he led into beautiful little pockets tonight and he
Speaker 3: was just taking it at one hundred percent speed, which
Speaker 3: this hues upside for him.
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of this kid.
Speaker 3: He's not a big, big center half forward or a
Speaker 3: key forward, but six to three launches at the foot.
Speaker 3: He kicks beautifully and he was a recipient of a
Speaker 3: pretty dominant midfield which really came.
Speaker 2: To play in that area, particularly early on after the
Speaker 2: game thanks to Aset Transport Solutions. Need more drivers Aset Transport, Dotte,
Speaker 2: you let's get back to the phones. We'll go to
Speaker 2: Daniel out at Windsor Gardens.
Speaker 19: Hi, Daniel Gooday, guys walking walking out of start him
Speaker 19: as we speak. But yeah, what a turnaround. I think
Speaker 19: if we look at hard when he played a first
Speaker 19: game er in a Grand Finals, sometimes he just got
Speaker 19: a back in the young players in debt and how
Speaker 19: they go. I thought Sin tonight showed good signs that
Speaker 19: he was in for the fight. Logan Evans, he was
Speaker 19: santatic to night. He really stood up at that half
Speaker 19: back roll without Syston and Barrel and Jordan Sweet. What
Speaker 19: about that rundown in that last quarter from a ruckman,
Speaker 19: He looks I was right there, I was right in
Speaker 19: front of it. He put his head back and stuck
Speaker 19: it in the deep one. But that's the tackling we
Speaker 19: want to see him final.
Speaker 14: That's the pressure.
Speaker 19: That's what it should have been last week.
Speaker 6: But yeah, great response.
Speaker 19: It gets tough the next week again Sydney, but if
Speaker 19: they can bring that in the midfield, then yeah, it's
Speaker 19: gonna be a great game.
Speaker 6: Thanks guys, great cool.
Speaker 2: Thanks for that, Daniel. We'll keep on moving and we
Speaker 2: know that Callum Mills is definitely going to be out
Speaker 2: for the Swans next week. Let's go to Highbury, Michael.
Speaker 2: He's been waiting for some time, can I Michael?
Speaker 1: Yeah? How are you?
Speaker 20: But I'm going to take you to task for any
Speaker 20: like obviously we can go on really early at the
Speaker 20: end of their last boar.
Speaker 13: If they had two posters, are you.
Speaker 20: Watching when they had to hold the balls, they were
Speaker 20: probably one of the best hold the ball Decause they've
Speaker 20: got two gold that went out of bounds. They got
Speaker 20: a goal out of that, so I reckon, we're a
Speaker 20: three goal better.
Speaker 6: So I'm not a lucky side ready.
Speaker 20: I watched the game and watch property.
Speaker 6: Don't put it down the goal kicking. They've kicked a point.
Speaker 20: Were the two of the best tackles you've seen an
Speaker 20: AFL game that will give its sling tackles that they've
Speaker 20: got two goals out then the one at a bench
Speaker 20: which is a ball and a half out Bandary umpire
Speaker 20: obviously blind didn't send to get a goal of it,
Speaker 20: and you've got the nerve to say, oh they keep
Speaker 20: the two parts they would have won it.
Speaker 6: Come and I get real.
Speaker 2: Not taking anything away from a Michael, I think you
Speaker 2: just need to calm yourself down a little bit there, mate,
Speaker 2: and just perhaps have a calming little beer yourself.
Speaker 3: Great win for Port, but to be fair, I recognize
Speaker 3: said the umpire has got Awthorne back into it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: three of those goals in that exact second term were
Speaker 3: horrible decisions.
Speaker 1: They didn't have a great knife. No, no, they didn't.
Speaker 5: And I was feared and we said it that they
Speaker 5: might be the difference between the result. That's what I
Speaker 5: was fearful of.
Speaker 1: So let's go to Jordan Corrimandel East get a.
Speaker 6: Guys.
Speaker 7: The crazy suppers want to say well done to put Adelaide.
Speaker 7: They've really growing on me as them as Davis, and
Speaker 7: I think they deserved it.
Speaker 6: Win tonight went on boys.
Speaker 5: Cheers Jordan, thanks for the call, Mone the support, Good
Speaker 5: on your buddy, and let's got a trip at Queensland.
Speaker 5: Uh jeez, Trivia, you gave us called Drom the week,
Speaker 5: didn't you?
Speaker 1: Did you win? I reckon you were up for a
Speaker 1: night to me?
Speaker 15: Sorry, mate, I would have liked to. But it's a
Speaker 15: good during the week mate. Some some's got to work
Speaker 15: during the week.
Speaker 14: Mate.
Speaker 1: But and you do that thing, oh mate.
Speaker 15: The thing about it is that I normally ring up
Speaker 15: as we could bend. Here's so disappointed after last week's eft,
Speaker 15: but you go, well, I was shattered tonight. That is
Speaker 15: the standard. That is the standard right expect the seed
Speaker 15: because I honestly thought before the game, I thought Hawthorne.
Speaker 19: Would beat us.
Speaker 15: And you know, I'm embarrassed to say that, but I thought,
Speaker 15: you know, because after seeing last week, I was hoping
Speaker 15: for a response, and you know what, we freaking got one.
Speaker 15: And I thought, you know what, that's what I want
Speaker 15: to see. If we'd got been I would have been disappointed, yes,
Speaker 15: but you know, I go we gave it our all
Speaker 15: and we can never ask.
Speaker 3: Because pregame, I must admit people who are asking me,
Speaker 3: and I'm going I was not as confident as last
Speaker 3: week just because of the last week's performance. Probably starts
Speaker 3: you to doubt a little bit, knocks you around, doesn't
Speaker 3: it when it's that big a loss.
Speaker 1: And I went did the halftime highlight stuff.
Speaker 5: I'm running back and so many supporters said, this is
Speaker 5: what we expected, this is what we want, and we're
Speaker 5: all going, yeah, now we don't know how the game
Speaker 5: will end, but this is finals footage. This is the
Speaker 5: pressure level you need to lift to, and they did.
Speaker 5: So you know, take that on board and go. Now
Speaker 5: we know what's required to bring. You're going to need
Speaker 5: it for next week as well.
Speaker 2: Because you know Sydney going to come out so hard.
Speaker 2: There's such a quality side, especially at home. Let's get
Speaker 2: to Fullerton. Will is on the line high will they fellers.
Speaker 18: Look, I've got to make a very quick shout out
Speaker 18: to a friend in Scotland who's asked me to call
Speaker 18: out this because he wasn't here tonight.
Speaker 13: He was listening to the call on five double A
Speaker 13: and rushed home from his.
Speaker 21: New job to catch the fourth caller after hearing what
Speaker 21: was going on.
Speaker 18: So Luke in Edinburgh, give me a shout out. Book
Speaker 18: a couple of points that I want to throw out
Speaker 18: there tonight. First thing's verse Zach bud As. Anyone wants
Speaker 18: to question his courage, look what he did tonight, those
Speaker 18: rundown tackles. Going back to the flight incredible. The last
Speaker 18: point I want to throw out there to you boys,
Speaker 18: is Dixon, Marshall or Vincentini, who do you play next week?
Speaker 14: Sellers?
Speaker 5: Well, if they're going to have to play it tool,
Speaker 5: I'm not sure that I like. I actually like the
Speaker 5: look of the team when Marshall came off the ground
Speaker 5: actually extra run a bit.
Speaker 1: Lighter on our feet. Sydney's a shorter, fatter ground. I
Speaker 1: probably like the way we looked well at the end
Speaker 1: to tee the truth.
Speaker 3: And I think our two best forwards for the night
Speaker 3: Radigalia early lots of contested marks right and then gives
Speaker 3: your flexibility to play ruck and then also go behind
Speaker 3: the ball at the end and Georgia Artis And didn't
Speaker 3: they look better with Burne Jones going forward toward it?
Speaker 3: Should never have gone back.
Speaker 5: Look again, sitting here last week we picked a part
Speaker 5: of the coaching errors. This week they got those positional
Speaker 5: things right.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 5: Charlie Dixon dropping out before the game. I think was
Speaker 5: a blessing in that we didn't have to play all
Speaker 5: the tools.
Speaker 1: But I don't know. I suspect they sort of expected
Speaker 1: that to.
Speaker 5: Any who that they got it right because putting Bergorne
Speaker 5: behind the ball. See, I'm always for people who have
Speaker 5: played there. Now, burn Jones two and a half years
Speaker 5: since he played back.
Speaker 3: I was nervous with Bergorne as a body, strength and
Speaker 3: size and stuff.
Speaker 1: But they got it right. So they get it, they
Speaker 1: get it right, and Evans played the whole thing.
Speaker 5: So they So you've got to say, Okay, we'll take
Speaker 5: the hat off tonight and say you did it well.
Speaker 1: You actually got the positional stuff right.
Speaker 5: But you know what makes a big difference, Zir Thatcher
Speaker 5: wasn't up mentally for the game last week.
Speaker 1: He was outstanding tonight. He wasn't alive.
Speaker 2: Give him stand up and give him an applause tonight
Speaker 2: for his game he was outstanding.
Speaker 3: Well, let's look at it, right, Evans played a role
Speaker 3: at five touches, but he played a role, right.
Speaker 1: Did he dominate?
Speaker 22: No?
Speaker 1: But then you go me Frances sevens? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: Then Georgia Artis is the fourth lastest disposal when he's
Speaker 3: only had nine. His kicks three indeed was huge early.
Speaker 3: Burne Jones is eleven kicks, kicks two really good. You know,
Speaker 3: ALiR was solid all of us, like Sin comes in
Speaker 3: plays a role. Narkele has played two full games I
Speaker 3: think in about ten weeks, and one was in the sample.
Speaker 1: He was very good.
Speaker 2: Let's go to Patrick at Morphetvale. Hi, Patrick, How I.
Speaker 1: Good? Thanks?
Speaker 2: Patrick.
Speaker 13: I just want to say that Butters, Rosie and Joel
Speaker 13: Beach all played very well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were good. When was the last one I
Speaker 1: couldn't hear? Yeah, Goel Beach? H that's run over that one?
Speaker 1: Sweet sweet, big sweet? Yeah? Yeah, No, he was excellent.
Speaker 1: He was very good, wasn't he. Joel Beak Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know, Yeah, why he is? Aren't there great? No,
Speaker 1: not at all. But I think it was Jordan's sweet.
Speaker 1: I think what Joe sweet?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Let's get out to Berry. Glenn has been waiting today, Glenn.
Speaker 6: Hello, four simple things.
Speaker 23: Jordan's sweet. They calling in Port Adelaide for years. Jordan's
Speaker 23: sweat outstanding. Tonight, Jose bergoing, that's the outcoming. He's going
Speaker 23: to run a muck for the next few years and
Speaker 23: simply struggle coming off of off of buys. Lately, when
Speaker 23: they've come off a buy, they're a bit slow to
Speaker 23: start when.
Speaker 8: They get going.
Speaker 23: Tonight is proof of that. Last week they were slow
Speaker 23: to start tonight. They started well, the game picked up,
Speaker 23: they controlled Hawthorne, they don what they needed to do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not a good record, Doug Glenn. That off
Speaker 1: the by thing?
Speaker 5: Is it because somebody else pointed out tow us during
Speaker 5: the week ports record after a buye isn't great. So
Speaker 5: actually please that they were able to bounce back this week.
Speaker 5: Give us ourselves another chance to to what would you say,
Speaker 5: present yourself in a prelim and you know what, can
Speaker 5: it be fourth time lucky?
Speaker 1: Just to hope.
Speaker 2: So just a little bit of breaking news. We're getting
Speaker 2: reports that the coach Ken Hinckley, obviously very emotional finished
Speaker 2: seemed to be shouting something to the Hawks team after
Speaker 2: the win, and James Cicily took exception to it. So
Speaker 2: there might be a bit of fall out on that.
Speaker 1: Is it the Guinnevan stuff see in Sydney or something
Speaker 1: I don't know, could.
Speaker 2: Be a bit of that, but Ginneban looks like the
Speaker 2: shot that we're seeing on Twitter. Guinnevan's one of the
Speaker 2: players in the vicinity. So we'll wait to find out more.
Speaker 2: Just keep that stuff to yourself from let's go to
Speaker 2: Kensington Park before you do the talking Jackie's on the line.
Speaker 12: Hollo, Hey there guys, crow S fan. But I think
Speaker 12: that's the one Poort deserved after years and years of
Speaker 12: coming up short.
Speaker 6: You know, they deserved one.
Speaker 12: And I think the leaders. You spoke pre game about
Speaker 12: the leaders standing up and it wasn't necessarily having a label. Well,
Speaker 12: Jase Bergo and he's he's led his position, doas Bergman,
Speaker 12: Burne Jones. You know these are it's not the butters
Speaker 12: or the rose Eve and they were great. Jordan's sweet
Speaker 12: like advance Toto was number one rock. He wasn't even
Speaker 12: number one rock. He almost had fifty hitouts against the
Speaker 12: guy who's been probably in the top five ruckmen in
Speaker 12: Meeky So yeah, and you beat the Swans by one
Speaker 12: hundred so who knows. And just the last thing on
Speaker 12: the Ken Hinckley thing, yeah, he was having to go
Speaker 12: with Jack Genevan.
Speaker 14: Not a great look.
Speaker 12: I don't think, yeah, yeah anything yet ken So.
Speaker 3: Host broadcaster as Kenny's done an interview with BT I
Speaker 3: think of that. It's just popped up on social media
Speaker 3: saying yeah, I sort of ready you've got it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's basically saying Jack Innovan said what he said
Speaker 2: through the weekend. I just told him after the game
Speaker 2: he wasn't going anywhere. You know what, I don't do
Speaker 2: social media.
Speaker 1: I just do what I do.
Speaker 2: I probably shouldn't have done it. I should apologize to
Speaker 2: the boys. I shouldn't have done what I did.
Speaker 1: So emotions get you at the wrong time sometimes, and it.
Speaker 2: Was a highly emotional game and there was a lot
Speaker 2: on the line. It was season on the line, treat
Speaker 2: as you mentioned, as well, careers on the line, all
Speaker 2: of that. It was a big contest tonight. Let's get
Speaker 2: to Salisbury North. Hi Anthony, Hi.
Speaker 14: Guys, I loved your call tonight. A couple of different angles.
Speaker 14: On tonight they beat a very good sight tonight Port
Speaker 14: Adelaide course. On we're kicked to probably go all the
Speaker 14: way at least to make the Grand Final, and we've
Speaker 14: touted them. I think we's orchestrated two wins versus them
Speaker 14: this season, albeit at home, but we've beaten them twice
Speaker 14: in a row. We've beaten Sydney. I think he cops
Speaker 14: a lot of heat that.
Speaker 6: He doesn't deserve.
Speaker 14: The players, at the end of the day have to
Speaker 14: stand up on the day.
Speaker 6: We didn't.
Speaker 14: Versus Geelong, we did today, and I'm very proud of
Speaker 14: the boys and how well they played today. They actually
Speaker 14: played with some intensity and some purpose and showed some
Speaker 14: pride in the coach that coaches them. What I would
Speaker 14: like to ask you both is where do you see
Speaker 14: us going in the next couple of weeks. I think
Speaker 14: we lack a couple of mongrel type players for a
Speaker 14: better word. If you look back to our two thousand
Speaker 14: and four premiership and most of the premiership winning sides,
Speaker 14: they usually encompass guys that are very forthright, very hard
Speaker 14: hitting and sort of establish a tone for the game
Speaker 14: at the start of the game with physical intensity. With
Speaker 14: the rules today, how do we do that and how
Speaker 14: can we do that next week?
Speaker 9: Well?
Speaker 5: I think Anthony, the way we started tonight is the
Speaker 5: way you go about finals football, and I think that
Speaker 5: has to happen. I was critical of a lot of
Speaker 5: players for last week not lifting to that standard, and
Speaker 5: tonight I was just over the moon with the way
Speaker 5: they attacked the football and also attack the man with
Speaker 5: the ball. So you know, case in point Zerk Thatcher,
Speaker 5: I just don't think you were mentally prepared to play
Speaker 5: the first final.
Speaker 1: When you come out and duck your head twice. He
Speaker 1: didn't look like that tonight.
Speaker 5: He was courageous, he took courageous marks. I don't All
Speaker 5: that says to me is he was prepared mentally and
Speaker 5: that's what it is. You have to lift mentally and
Speaker 5: physically for finals, and that was a really good example.
Speaker 5: I don't hat off tonight. I thought he was outstanding.
Speaker 5: And that's the sort of pressure you're talking about. When
Speaker 5: you run through the line of the ball and take
Speaker 5: two or three players with you, that's the sort of
Speaker 5: tough football that wins finals, not anything else.
Speaker 1: You don't need it.
Speaker 3: And I know you're saying we had some tough blokes,
Speaker 3: we had hard We'd pick it with Roger James.
Speaker 1: You're super competitive team, but the reality is where do
Speaker 1: you sit You give yourself.
Speaker 3: A chance of winning a flag. If you play light tonight,
Speaker 3: you won't win next week. If you play light last week.
Speaker 3: It's as simple as that. If you start looking beyond
Speaker 3: seven days game and preparing every day like it's you're
Speaker 3: playing for your life, then Sydney's not going to go well.
Speaker 3: But if you bring the intensity and if they can
Speaker 3: bottle what they've done for what's it now? Eight out
Speaker 3: of the last ten matches, then you give yourself a
Speaker 3: bloody good chance to make a Grand Final for the
Speaker 3: first time since two thousand and seven.
Speaker 1: Yep, spot on.
Speaker 3: You start looking two weeks their head, you'll full flat
Speaker 3: on your face.
Speaker 2: Great call, traders, We've just got a few more calls.
Speaker 2: We're going to get to it before we do, and
Speaker 2: then we'll wrap up with the awards. Let's have a
Speaker 2: listen to that audio from the coach Ken Hinckley following
Speaker 2: that bit of controversy after the game.
Speaker 1: I saw a few words after the game with James Cicily.
Speaker 1: Was that just a little bit of a ping pong
Speaker 1: with you and he?
Speaker 24: I'll be honest, so was Jack saidbody said through the
Speaker 24: week and I just told him marf the game.
Speaker 11: He wasn't going anywhere. And you know what, I don't
Speaker 11: know social media.
Speaker 1: I just do what I do.
Speaker 24: I probably shouldn't have done it. I should apologize to
Speaker 24: the boys. I shouldn't have probably done it, but the
Speaker 24: reality was you throw something away, We're.
Speaker 11: Going to throw something back occasionally.
Speaker 1: Good on. Thanks all right?
Speaker 2: That audo their thanks to Channel seven. That was an
Speaker 2: interview with Brian Taylor. So he's owned up to it
Speaker 2: straight away. He said, look, I shouldn't have done it.
Speaker 2: We just move on treaders after that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well as media streets going that come on, that's
Speaker 5: gonna on every.
Speaker 1: Show every year.
Speaker 3: Should should he have done it? He said, he shouldn't have.
Speaker 1: Probably he knows straight away, but he has jumped straight
Speaker 1: up and said.
Speaker 2: Yeah that that at least literally to the damage to
Speaker 2: some extent.
Speaker 1: Just don't get involved in that stuff.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that that is that's almost alluring you in. And
Speaker 5: you know, because that's not the last time you play awful.
Speaker 3: But to be fair, and he's not the only coach,
Speaker 3: He's done it, and Chris Scott's done a few times.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I agree, But I think get the boys
Speaker 1: in the room and sing the song.
Speaker 2: Let's get out to marry and Sammy's on the line.
Speaker 22: Hi, San, Hey are you Timmy my favorite magpie apart
Speaker 22: from the great Milan Philetic? How are you?
Speaker 1: Thank you?
Speaker 14: Oh?
Speaker 19: It was just.
Speaker 22: He was I just rang up last Thursday and I
Speaker 22: gave my honest true for motional embarrassed it and want
Speaker 22: to leave the house. But you know, just a bit
Speaker 22: of ticker and want in the Novak Djokovic heart and
Speaker 22: will to win, and yeah, that's all I got to say, Timmy.
Speaker 22: Like I said, I love you mate the treaders as well.
Speaker 12: I love you too, but Timmy the black and white man.
Speaker 22: Yeah, so we're not sitting ahead of ourselves.
Speaker 2: But the wins a win, that's it.
Speaker 1: But I will enjoy this and all, just like the
Speaker 1: twenty four hour rule.
Speaker 5: You get to be sook for twenty four hours if
Speaker 5: you lose, and you get to enjoy it for twenty
Speaker 5: four hours when you're still.
Speaker 1: Where we're going. Yeah, I'm gonna bullshit to ride the
Speaker 1: cow or the ball. Yeah, not anymore.
Speaker 2: Last week, Yeah, let's get out to angle Vale. Robert
Speaker 2: is on the line.
Speaker 1: Get a Robert, Yeah, get a fellas.
Speaker 25: Just like to congratulate the Port Adelaide Football Club. And
Speaker 25: another thing, I would just like to say all those
Speaker 25: people that rang last week and rubbish the players so
Speaker 25: called port supporters, I hope they got the nerves to
Speaker 25: ring either during the week and have another view of
Speaker 25: what they said last week, because obviously a lot of
Speaker 25: them are not true Port Adelaide supporters.
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, Robert, I'll back them up.
Speaker 5: I always tell the story and I used to do
Speaker 5: this when I inducted the players into the club. My
Speaker 5: first ever game, I was riding my bike, still training,
Speaker 5: and I stopped Tom the Chiefs and I went into
Speaker 5: the store.
Speaker 1: We lost, and I played my first.
Speaker 5: Game and the lady beyond the counter absolutely gave it
Speaker 5: to me and just pasted me and said, and you'll
Speaker 5: be dropped to the twos if you don't pull your
Speaker 5: socks up.
Speaker 1: And I did the right thing. I got dropped, and.
Speaker 5: Six weeks later I got another game and we won.
Speaker 5: I ride my bike as fast as I could to
Speaker 5: Tom the Cheeks. I was going to give it to
Speaker 5: this lady.
Speaker 1: I went in there. I just threw a packet of
Speaker 1: Chewies down. I didn't care.
Speaker 5: I wanted to give it to her. And she looked
Speaker 5: at me and she said, that's what we want. Well done,
Speaker 5: and don't pay for the chewies.
Speaker 12: Off you go.
Speaker 5: You get it, you get it, you get you know what,
Speaker 5: you get to tap on the back when you do well,
Speaker 5: and you get the punch in the face when you're done.
Speaker 1: And that's where people pay.
Speaker 3: I know what it cost for a ticket last week,
Speaker 3: and they're going app every week from the finals.
Speaker 1: As you go on.
Speaker 3: People were just paid whatever for their membership per year
Speaker 3: to anchor their seats, or to come every week to
Speaker 3: spend money pretty expensive prices to come down laid over,
Speaker 3: to eat out for a family.
Speaker 1: Right, it's a huge contribution to footy.
Speaker 3: And when your team doesn't play, you are entitled to
Speaker 3: voish your frustration. They entitled to leave early if they
Speaker 3: went that's not me, but you're entitled to.
Speaker 5: But if they went down an enormous fight, you'd go, okay,
Speaker 5: fair enough, and you know you're being a bit harsh,
Speaker 5: but all this last week deserved every.
Speaker 1: Piece that thought that the gentleman just said.
Speaker 3: Then we're still loving light, no, and the world's turn
Speaker 3: and love and light and you're going to be woken.
Speaker 3: You can't do this and you can't No. If you
Speaker 3: don't like what you say, it's footy, you'rre accountable.
Speaker 1: And also respond to it like they did tonight and
Speaker 1: then like.
Speaker 3: Tonight, well done, Yeah bloody good Earth taps on the
Speaker 3: back absolute praise because if you without getting ahead, if
Speaker 3: you rob that out next week and you can win,
Speaker 3: and then you rob it out and you just dare
Speaker 3: to dream that you think you're alive to win a
Speaker 3: Grand Final.
Speaker 5: Two high intensity games away from winning a flame and that.
Speaker 3: Is the biggest kickup the butt we've ever seen last
Speaker 3: week and it's we were all judging where it went
Speaker 3: to and tonight was in dead glad.
Speaker 2: I love it boys. It's good to just hear you
Speaker 2: talking about it. Let's get to Benny, who wants to
Speaker 2: talk about the game. We've had lots of calls.
Speaker 1: High then Ben you with us? Ben, he's done.
Speaker 2: Ben might have just dropped off. We'll keep on going.
Speaker 2: We'll go to Aberfoyle Park. David, he's waiting for us.
Speaker 2: Hello there, David.
Speaker 6: Oh how you're going?
Speaker 14: Oh?
Speaker 1: Good good bye.
Speaker 6: You're a champion. And what do I want to say
Speaker 6: to you? Timmy is Woodbane North pook Club. Okay, cool,
Speaker 6: we move from that. Okay, I know you Tim but anyway,
Speaker 6: but what I want to say about today tonight is
Speaker 6: the intensity from the word is what you want? And
Speaker 6: correct the ruckman? Sweet? You know people people can brush
Speaker 6: about about Ruckman. You know what I mean. They've got
Speaker 6: to got a certain tap and move on. He contested
Speaker 6: every opportunity he had to. He knocked the ball forward
Speaker 6: in the tap and he's done it last year. He's
Speaker 6: done it. Sorry, He's done it last week and we
Speaker 6: were just not ordinary in the center to get the
Speaker 6: ball away.
Speaker 14: But he.
Speaker 6: Won every tap last week as far as I can
Speaker 6: soon and tonight again he just rushes forward with the ball.
Speaker 6: He contested the ball on the ground, he moves forward.
Speaker 6: I think he's got a feature and Burglawn, I'll tell
Speaker 6: you what, he's got a great mindset for the rest
Speaker 6: of the way he played the football for the rest
Speaker 6: of his career. I think because he reads the ball,
Speaker 6: he's got those gills that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, great, Carl, thanks for that. We were appreciated, David.
Speaker 2: It was it was a cree sort of making game
Speaker 2: for Burgling. Wasn't the way he stood up with his frame.
Speaker 1: We spoke about it.
Speaker 2: It was so courageous and he had some huge moments.
Speaker 2: Let's go to Craig at Evanston Park.
Speaker 1: Hi, Craig, Hey, go buddy A right, yeah, good? Thanks?
Speaker 2: What did you think? Amazing games?
Speaker 21: I think that the intensity that we started with, it
Speaker 21: was a very improved performance by the boys, and I
Speaker 21: Reckon and all the supporters should be proud.
Speaker 2: I think that's a great call. Yeah, I think it
Speaker 2: was a performance you would be proud of. And well
Speaker 2: the boys have just been harping on for the last
Speaker 2: twenty minutes or so. They've just got to bring that
Speaker 2: same effort again next week. Let's go out to Philip.
Speaker 2: Hello there, Philip, you want to talk a little bit
Speaker 2: about the Hawks.
Speaker 21: Well, I wanted to talk about the game itself.
Speaker 14: I said, I rang.
Speaker 10: Before the earlier the sevening and thought that I wasn't
Speaker 10: personally going to get stuck into the fact that often
Speaker 10: the team that's coming back after a loss and a
Speaker 10: bad loss that sort had last week, you.
Speaker 21: Know, they often have the favorites and go against them.
Speaker 21: And I also mentioned last week after the game that
Speaker 21: I felt that what Ford had to do was do
Speaker 21: whatever they could to win before the bye. And the
Speaker 21: first two games are.
Speaker 10: After the bye.
Speaker 21: They got hammered and they fought tooth and flour to
Speaker 21: get over the line against against the Saint Kilda to
Speaker 21: win by two points. And then we know what happened
Speaker 21: after that. They won eight of their next what they
Speaker 21: want similar to the next eight games after that one
Speaker 21: eight of their last nine. And I thought tonight they
Speaker 21: really set up well and didn't allow a lot of
Speaker 21: the time Hawthorne had to delay their move forward because
Speaker 21: they had nothing to kick to and I thought that
Speaker 21: was crucial in keeping Hawthorne at bay. And just finally
Speaker 21: I thought Port had enough liman lemon to quell the
Speaker 21: howk of Hawthorn.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, a good call, and and also to take
Speaker 3: out last week's game. Paul was a number one pressure
Speaker 3: team in the COM Last week was an admiration, horrendous.
Speaker 3: So tonight I was back to that standard.
Speaker 1: That's why bring up earlier.
Speaker 5: I think now it's twelve out of twelve teams lost
Speaker 5: that first one. I've gone and won the semi.
Speaker 2: When they've lost by fifty or more. Spot on and
Speaker 2: tread as you touched on it. That's why you get
Speaker 2: the double chance. You weren't it and had that one
Speaker 2: final call. Let's get to Andrew. Hi, Andrew, are you
Speaker 2: going guys?
Speaker 14: Yeah?
Speaker 26: Not bad, great win, What a fantastic game. I'm just
Speaker 26: thinking about last week, how livid I was about the
Speaker 26: performance and everything, and I'm just so so fantastically proud
Speaker 26: of the guys for this game this week, today tonight.
Speaker 26: Just the enthusiasm that they're pushing the ball, they're tackling,
Speaker 26: they're going so hard. It was just, you know, I
Speaker 26: wouldn't have cared if they lost in a way because
Speaker 26: I just saw that passion there and I think that's great.
Speaker 26: I'm really proud of them, so proud of them.
Speaker 5: That spot on the effort was there, Andrew, and that's
Speaker 5: what you want from your team. You want full on effort,
Speaker 5: and that's what you've got tonight. And they also got
Speaker 5: a very very good result, three point win that takes
Speaker 5: them through to a pre link.
Speaker 1: A lot of people question the pressure. I reckon.
Speaker 3: I've said the last four weeks, bring on the pressure.
Speaker 3: We find out what our people are made of. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we had a list tonight and a group tonight, in
Speaker 3: a coaching group tonight, in the club tonight who refused
Speaker 3: to lose.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and good on them.
Speaker 2: It was a it was a gutsy win tread as
Speaker 2: it was really good stuff. We're going to take a
Speaker 2: break come back with the awards on the other side.

Speaker 27: To Ken as a coach at the simmbe Go we
Speaker 27: just had a win, a great win, talking about how

Speaker 2: Well that was Luke hodgehn Channel seven after the post
Speaker 2: match spray from Ken Hinckley with his opinion and Timmy
Speaker 2: you mentioned it, it's probably going to take on a
Speaker 2: bit of a life of its own. Well, now, he
Speaker 2: did apologize immediately after, treaders to I think try and
Speaker 2: limit the damage, but there's no doubt there'll be a
Speaker 2: bit before.
Speaker 1: Do you need to do it? Probably not.
Speaker 3: Did he feel like he needed to do it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we don't know what was said back. Yeah, I'm not
Speaker 3: trying to defend it, but he's owned it. There's a
Speaker 3: lot of club you move on yep there and no

Speaker 2: think seven days he should be okay, or at least
Speaker 2: be available.

Speaker 3: But interesting decision marshall our do they go small or
Speaker 3: do they bring Dixon back in?

Speaker 2: Sam Mitchell, just a little bit on Ken Hinckley has
Speaker 2: just happened in the last couple of minutes. Let's have
Speaker 2: one final listen to what he had to say.
Speaker 27: I mean, I can only speak on my club's behalf.
Speaker 27: And if I think about how my club, the Hawthorne
Speaker 27: Football Club, dealt with the post game, we had a
Speaker 27: very young player who was having had some very aggressive
Speaker 27: words said to him by a much older man who's
Speaker 27: been in the game for a long time, and the
Speaker 27: captain of my club stood up for him. And so
Speaker 27: I think, you really, like, it's really tough to sit
Speaker 27: here right now getting rushed by the AFL.
Speaker 1: Make sure you're at your press conference on time.
Speaker 27: And so I understand the emotions of this time of
Speaker 27: year are really really difficult, and I'm really proud of
Speaker 27: our captain who would have been just as emotional, who
Speaker 27: was able to stand up and lead in a way
Speaker 27: that he could be proud of.
Speaker 11: We seek to speak to can do that?
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. How frustrated are you to see that?
Speaker 11: And how that relayed to you from a roller coach?
Speaker 1: That a third question that's off. Okay, I told you
Speaker 1: this is gonna yeah. Get some legs yeap.
Speaker 2: And there'll be a bit more on that tomorrow, no doubt,
