It's going to be 11 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:39,159 Speaker 1: a great week brown Dog. The greatest preliminary final weekend 12 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: in history. There will be two ninety five thousand plus 13 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,599 Speaker 1: crowds at the MCG Friday night, Saturday night. How good 14 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: football Dog. 15 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 4: It's magnificent. 16 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 2: I love preliminary final weekend almost as much as a 17 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 2: Grand Final. That they always seem to be better games. 18 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 2: And I thought that both the better teams it through. 19 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 2: The Hawks were brilliant Friday night and Brisbane line didn't 20 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,279 Speaker 2: they just smack up on their younger brother. They played 21 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: really well. I'll scratch my head because almost everything that 22 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 2: Chris I scratched it off. Everything that Geelong did to Brisbane, 23 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 2: sit on mcclugg eage, take the run and carry away 24 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 2: from Zach Bailey. You know they dim and the Sons 25 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 2: didn't do Now, I know they don't tag, but surely 26 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 2: you take some of those learnings that you saw the 27 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 2: week before and you try and implement it in a 28 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 2: in a semi final and they just let him run, right, 29 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: Darcy Wilman. 30 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: Just backs his system, does that, No doubt about that. 31 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: But they mon't be disappointed. I think they go okay, 32 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,639 Speaker 1: sounds a pretty good first campaign in the final series. 33 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: Now dog, the critical thing is tickets. Did you get 34 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: on the website this morning? As a two hundred club man, 35 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: did you get your tickets? Because it was a mad flurry. 36 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: There was a lot of reloading of the computer screens 37 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: this morning. Because we are life members, we are eligible 38 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: for free tickets to the preliminary final, and considering both 39 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: our clubs are in there, there's no doubt that you 40 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: would have been refreshed, refreshed, refreshed, refreshed for ah shit, 41 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: damn it, refreshed, refreshed, refresh I have seen. 42 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 2: So I'm still in line because I'm not a life member, 43 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 2: I'm just a two hundred club. I'm a like a 44 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 2: club middle you know, middle linesman. The AFL have nearly 45 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 2: fucked everything up this year, right everything. 46 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 4: Umpiring fixture mr row. 47 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: You can add ticket you can add ticketing to it. 48 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 5: JB because ticket teck crashed again. 49 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: It's a mad scramble, isn't it. We even had to 50 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: put the couch meeting back just so we can. You 51 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: need about half an hour just to allow for the 52 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: crashing of the website five or sixt mate. I had 53 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: computers going on. I had Little Mimi's iPad going, I 54 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: had three mobile phones running. Is all happening? What sort 55 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: of operation are we running? 56 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: Where people have waited for an hour, they finally got in, 57 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: they've clicked their tickets, got into the cart, you know 58 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 2: the cart, and then just for four payers they kicked 59 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 2: out and they go to the back of the line. 60 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: What what that's hard work? Anyway, we're gonna I might 61 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: need your here Saturday night Dog Collingwood, Brisbane. It might 62 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: be a bit of a challenge for tickets. There will 63 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: be the family coming out of the hills, so I 64 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: might need you in a little bit of a chop 65 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: out there. But it's going to be a great weak 66 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: again it is. What's what's the most tickets you've got 67 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: for a game? Ever? Probably like ten? 68 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 4: I've never had, like, I've never had ridiculous orders. 69 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, you could probably get a few to a Gold 70 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 6: Coast game, I dare say back in the day, how 71 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 6: many you want? 72 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 7: Four hundred, five hundred? 73 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, never too many? 74 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: JV you twenty six, two thousand and one Grand Final. Yeah. 75 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: I think I've said it before on this podcast that 76 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: I was you had a friend ticket teckt in you. 77 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: I was friend, a very close friend who we had 78 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: an agency at the Gamma believe it or not, and 79 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: she just invited me under the back office before before 80 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: the tickets were released studs anyway, twenty six tickets later, 81 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: mae most popular family member of all time. Anyway, it 82 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: was a it was a fantastic hey JB. 83 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: My right in saying that adelaide of the first side 84 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 2: to finish on top of the ladder and bow out 85 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: in straight sets since North Melbourne in nineteen eighty three. 86 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 4: Does that sound right you? 87 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 5: Yeah? 88 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: Three straight sets? 89 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 5: Well, what happened? 90 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 2: Like they averaged one hundred and two points a game 91 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: through the home and away season and they were kept 92 00:04:55,800 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 2: to fifty five versus the Pies and sixty seven versus 93 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 2: the Hawks. 94 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 4: They almost looked shell shocked in finals. 95 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: They looked impotent. Yeah, something that you'll never get accused of. 96 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 1: Brown Dog. See, I thought they were. I thought they 97 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: were probably two midfielders short at the least. And I 98 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: think that came to the four Isaac Ranker was a 99 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: big loss, wasn't it. But you stacked up the midfields 100 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: against each other. And I wouldn't say Hawthorne's the most 101 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: powerful midfield, but yeah, the powerful the other night. But 102 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 1: that's a real problem and I think that came to 103 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: the surface in those two finals series. Brand Dog Adelaide 104 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 1: craz really good shown up, especially in Jordan Dawson who 105 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: it's clearly they're only a graded there in the midfield. 106 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: He was, you know, he was less than I suppose average. Yeah, effective, 107 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: you're less effective. So he tried his best, but it's 108 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: just too much of a load. 109 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 2: For him and a three headed monster which had been 110 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 2: so good for the season, Foggedy kicked one goal in 111 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 2: two games. Kicked two and that was in the final 112 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 2: against the Pies and none against the Hawks. 113 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 5: And Riley thillthoughp I thought tried hardy. 114 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 2: He ended up kicking five and did some rock work 115 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 2: and he missed a couple, but clearly that that didn't 116 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 2: work in finals footy. So it's probably Texas last chance. 117 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 2: You'd think to, I know, I'll go around next year 118 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 2: and try and hold on. But it was probably his 119 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 2: last real opportunity winning a premiership. He would have gone 120 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 2: into September pretty bullish and be disappointed. 121 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so. I thought he was pretty He 122 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: was pretty solid, wasn't he the first week? But he 123 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: certainly probably shared his age on the weekend Adelaide. It 124 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: just shows you how important it is to play finals, 125 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: Like you said, brown Dog, and that's why I was 126 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: really bullish on the Craws working when the premiership this year, 127 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: no team's ever done it, or certainly not in the 128 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,679 Speaker 1: modern game where they've gone straight in a final series 129 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: and won it and now clearly a long way from 130 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: the best. Now. If you look at their form in 131 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: the last few weeks out pretty ordinary. They played West 132 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,799 Speaker 1: cast they played North Melbourne and they they had Collingwood 133 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: twice and they had struggled with struggles with Collingwood when 134 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: Collingwood were so out of form. So their form line 135 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: didn't look good coming into the final series at all 136 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: out lay Crows and I think some pundits got a 137 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: bit too far ahead of themselves and maybe some Adelais 138 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: Crow supporters. But they'll have to lick their wounds and 139 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: come back. They didn't win a quarter, did not win 140 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: a quarter in the final series, so it does get 141 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: compared to Brisbane going out straight sets in twenty nine eight. 142 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: But Brisbane were very strong against the eventual premiers that 143 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: year in Richmond and they should have beaten GWS in 144 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: the second final. So will there be scars? I guess 145 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: you have to say yes, there will be scars potentially 146 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: because the fact that they shit the bed for all 147 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: eight quarters in a final series. You go, yeah, finals 148 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: experience is good, but we were so far off it, 149 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: so you know they've got a bit of work to 150 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: do out of the off season obviously next season to 151 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: come back from that. Mate. 152 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Nixies should just print out life size 153 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 2: photos of Amber Heard all around the room because she 154 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 2: very famously shipped the bed on Johnny Depp through that 155 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 2: court case. And need to look at Amber Heard and 156 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 2: realize that, you know, sit in the bed is not 157 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 2: a good thing. 158 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: You're trying to inspire. 159 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 7: What a wonderful analogy that was. 160 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: He's gone obviously with no footy faced on a Sunday, 161 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: there's got a bit more time to come up with 162 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: these wonderful and now exactly right. Hey, I just love 163 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: that visual, don't you this?

But and that's Ricky Haddon't, the great 172 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: Ricky Hadn't who passed away last night, Brown Dog, best 173 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: known in this country for defeating Costa Zoo in his 174 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: absolute prime and taking the world title off Costa Zoo 175 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: that famous night all those years ago in Manchester City. 176 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 1: Now that fight was on it about there. It was 177 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: on at about five am in the morning for the 178 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: actual fighters. So as I stayed up all night, came 179 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: out and he beat Costa Zoo. But the reason I'm 180 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: telling you that is because on my honeymoon, I actually 181 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: had a connection and I was allowed to go down 182 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,959 Speaker 1: to watch Ricky hadn't train. Now that was leading into 183 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: the Mani Pacia fight. I went out to the back blox. 184 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: I was shopping with Kyle's in Vegas. I'll get a call, right, 185 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: You've got to come now, come in and watch. Ricky hadn't, 186 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: so I went out there. He was trained in this 187 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: fight by Floyd Mayweather, his dad. So just out there 188 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: the back box of Vegas, I thought I was going 189 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: to get robbed out in the middle of a where 190 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: he has a bit of a training session. And then 191 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: at the end of it, he said to me they 192 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: made here. You're getting home. I'll go. I don't know 193 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: where you're starting to see Mandalay Bay. I said, I 194 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: don't really know where to go.

It's not the best, but maybe I'll go, 232 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: maybe I'll go a Well, we've done Tom Hawk a 233 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: few times, but that'd be Josh Dunkley. Eight an't tackles 234 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: on the weekend, which is an all time record for 235 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: a Final series, any club, any team, whatever it is. 236 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: It was amazing performance by him and I think he 237 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 1: took it personally that performance against the gold cast Sons 238 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: a few weeks ago, when the Sun's absolutely wiped him 239 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: off the paddic he had a personal motivation I reckon 240 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,439 Speaker 1: and he came out there, played on Pat Matt Rowley 241 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 1: let the charge for the Brisbane line. So it was 242 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: a magnificent performance. I think he's an underrated player. I 243 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: know he was in the All Australian squad, but what 244 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: a great effort it was. 245 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 2: You were ahead of your time, JB, because I remember 246 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 2: you saying at the start of this season he is 247 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 2: the toughest player in the comp he's the best two 248 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 2: way runner and he went on to win the Robert 249 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 2: Rose Medal for the most Courageous and when he's dishing 250 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 2: up performances like he did on Saturday Night eighteen tackles, 251 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 2: breaking records, just absolutely outstanding. 252 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 4: So you've been a big fan for a while and 253 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 4: he's a two time Premiers. 254 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 5: She plays a star. 255 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know. And it could be just all about tomahawk's' 256 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: this Matrey because we've gone Ricky Hatton, We've gone Josh 257 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: Dunkley into John Yukean. What a tom work was Saturday night? 258 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: Out of the Friday night out of the center bounds? Mate, 259 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: How good was he? Like? His first quarter of center 260 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: bounce work was as good as you'll ever see a 261 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: final of any game. Amazing performance was he was getting clearances, 262 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: he's getting first hands, he was kicking goals. He just did. 263 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,199 Speaker 1: He just had one of the great finals games, great 264 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: center bounce games. And in the four finals games that 265 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: he has played, he has been raided or ranked the 266 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: highest player on the ground in each four of those. 267 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: So at this rate, he'll go past Dusty Martin as 268 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: the greatest finals performer of all time. 269 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 2: Well, if you can do that again in Grand Finals 270 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: and win normal Smith's but you can go get pluck 271 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 2: a nice little bit of a feather somewhere and stick 272 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: it straight in your cap. 273 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 5: Because he's born the boy from Pooh Wong. 274 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's born to play finals and he backs it 275 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 2: up on the big stage. And Adelaide mister trick on 276 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 2: the weekend. I think they probably he needed to clamp 277 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 2: him a bit better around stoppages. They send Berry to him. 278 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 2: With all due respect to to Berry Berry, he needs 279 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 2: a few more punnets Berry to run with John Yuk Money. 280 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: They look good, didn't they? The Hawks? Yeah, I like 281 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: the way they're heading. Good against GWS how good at 282 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: that was probably even more accomplished performance on the weekend 283 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: there was an absolute smacking against Adelaide cries and I 284 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: know we've pot of the cries, but jeez, the Hawks 285 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: look good. Their defense is unbelievable, say, rock solid. They've 286 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: got players like Josh Weddell who can go back midfield 287 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: for he was outstanding, and then they've got some really 288 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: dangerous forwards and a good mix of forwards obviously gunners. 289 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: He's doing an amazing job at the Rye bar lage 290 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: of out thirty five thirty six, but then supported by 291 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: guys like Nick Watson and Dylan Moore and the likes 292 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: you know, gez, they look pretty good.

Better look 337 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: at Bernie. 338 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: So yeah, mate, So another Hawks are ticking along really nicely, 339 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 2: you know, and and obviously the Cats. It's different Gravey 340 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 2: playing Geelong because they're a really, really good side. But 341 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,439 Speaker 2: it sets up for just a great preliminary final, doesn't I've. 342 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: Got one question now, you know, if they do go 343 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: all the way to the Promised Land the Mighty Hawks. 344 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: Often you hear these stories about stories of inspiration, stories 345 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: that we haven't heard of before as to why a 346 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: player got themselves up and got themselves into the team 347 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: and then went on to premiership glory. And do you 348 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 1: think there's any chance that we'll hear about the sauna story? Yeah, 349 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: Sam Butler, if he goes all the way to the top, 350 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: he may credit. Sure, he may credit that chat whether 351 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: it was hogs out or hogs in in the sauna 352 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: with Campbell Brown, a former premiership. 353 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, and number thirty as well. 354 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 2: I presented him his jumper twice because one was during 355 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 2: COVID over Zoom and then I did it again in 356 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,400 Speaker 2: person a couple of years later, So there's that connection. 357 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: But it's probably stage. Did you bring up the fact 358 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: that you may have been misled not winning the norm 359 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: sith Mental in two thousand and eight. Did that come 360 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: up in the discussion at all? It did. 361 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, it might have. 362 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 2: I reckon it'd be one of those stories that I 363 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,199 Speaker 2: remember vividly and he might need a little bit of 364 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:32,959 Speaker 2: a pin printer. 365 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 7: Just remember what other stars have worn the number thirty 366 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 7: at Hawthorne. 367 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 3: There's obviously Tony Woods, Luke Loudon, Oh yeah, Pehi, Hayden 368 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 3: Brand it went into I actually thought they'd retired the 369 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 3: number when I left for about a decade. 370 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 2: But I did find out that they actually just given 371 00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 2: it a players that never played footage. 372 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 1: So yeah, no, they're good. I can't wait the prelims 373 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: are set up ID it's magnificent that the AFL would 374 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 1: be absolutely salivating. It's going to be a big win 375 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: for big surplus this year Bran Dog when they get 376 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: two ninety five pluses at the MCG for preliminary final weekend. 377 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: And their rivalry, so two of the great modern day 378 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: rivalries certainly this century. Obviously Geelong and Hawthorne since the 379 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: nine eighty nine Grand Final and that's carried all the 380 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 1: way through. And then of course Brisbane Collingwood, who have 381 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: played in three Grand Finals this century playing a prelim 382 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: final this weekend. They've had a great recent history as well, 383 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: so you know, I just think it's going to be mad. 384 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 1: There's going to be fireworks no matter what. 385 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 2: From a AFL national competition, they'd be delighted, I think 386 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 2: because while the gulf between the best nine and the 387 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 2: worst nine was massive this year and then we had 388 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 2: some real blowouts, but from the finals, there's been a 389 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 2: game played in. 390 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 5: Every state, right which is a huge tick. 391 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 2: There's been a couple of absolute nail bonders, you know, 392 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 2: the Suns beating Freemantle over there is one of the 393 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 2: great moments. 394 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 5: There's been upsets, you know. 395 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 4: So and I think the a f L, if they could. 396 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 2: Pick four teams to playoff in the pre limb at 397 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 2: the MCG these had been the four probably their supporter 398 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 2: base and what it does for you know, the broadcast 399 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 2: and everything. 400 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: So they get a Northern team in the finals. That's 401 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: right in the prelim finals, so they get all the 402 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: Northern audience. You know, it's it's just going to be 403 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 1: it's going to be outstanding. And Hawthorn it probably just 404 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: shut show that the week off before the finals, it 405 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: does open things up to the bottom part of the 406 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: eighth because Hawthorny they went through, they'd be the first 407 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: team to win it from eighth and they look as 408 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 1: good a chance as anyone, don't they. 409 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, they do. 410 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's a I've tipped along to win 411 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 2: the win the premiership about a month ago. But it 412 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 2: is all you need is you know, an injury in 413 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 2: a game or a couple of bad quarters or you know, 414 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 2: and you can you can give up a preliminary final. 415 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,719 Speaker 2: So yeah, and I did find it fascinating as well. 416 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 2: I think Sammy Mitchell is probably the only coach in 417 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 2: the competition that with a big semi final coming up, right, 418 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 2: he still has the time and the foresight and the 419 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 2: will really to go and interview, sit down with Zach Merritt, 420 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 2: you know, like that was that was the start of 421 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 2: what would be a massive week for him. 422 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 5: And I like it. 423 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: You know, he's clearly got one eye on this year 424 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 2: and what they can do, but also getting that list 425 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 2: bigger and better and stronger for next. 426 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: Year and the year initiated the meeting, do you think 427 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: or do you think it was an initiated from Zach Merritt. 428 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 2: I don't know who initiated it, but I do have 429 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 2: a fairly strong opinion on Zach Merritt. 430 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 4: And alter league. 431 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 2: I think he has absolutely the right to want to 432 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 2: go and chase success somewhere. He's given Essdon two hundred 433 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 2: and fifty one games twelve years, through some shit periods 434 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 2: of time, through twenty sixteen the Supplement saga, when he 435 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 2: won his first Best and Fairest. He came back from 436 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 2: a broken hand to contribute in the last couple of 437 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 2: games of the year. And he's been their captain, he's 438 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 2: been their best player. He's about to win his six 439 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 2: Crichton medal, which is unbelievable. 440 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 5: So I will never. 441 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 2: Begrudge someone wanting to fulfill their childhood dream, right, and 442 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 2: that is to play in a premiership. And he's played 443 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 2: in four losing elimination finals JB. He's never tasted success 444 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 2: in September. And as a player, you're that jealous of 445 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 2: the guys that get to play, you know, in prelims 446 00:22:58,960 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 2: and grand finals. 447 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: I don't. 448 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 4: The only problem is he contracted. All right, that's it. 449 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 1: And you've been nobbled. You've been nobbled, brown dog. You've 450 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: been nobbled because a little birdie told me. He flew 451 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: up and landed on my shoulder and told me that 452 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: you may have done an appearance with Zach Merritt late 453 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: last week. I think he's got to your I think 454 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: I was expecting you to be the other way. So 455 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: contracts as sacred. He's had an opportunity to renego shave 456 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: last year and now he's done it again. He's backflipped 457 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: on the club again. And you have turned up to 458 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: a pub, a function center, whatever it is, collecting an 459 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: envelope like Zack Merritt, and he has got to you. 460 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: He's got to you in the car park. You may 461 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: have been at the urin altogether. Who knows, you might 462 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: have been having a turkey sauna. But there is no 463 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: doubt that he has softened you are. He has softened 464 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: you up. And this is not the Campbell Brown that 465 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: we know that you know that we all know, and 466 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,719 Speaker 1: we all know and love. Because you have gone soft. 467 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: You are wearing your harthorn colors. That's shaving your opinion. 468 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 1: I just don't think you're being a neutral pundit when 469 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: it comes to the Zach Merritt saga. 470 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 2: I just don't think they will be premiership contenders in 471 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 2: the next four or five years. 472 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 5: All right, So. 473 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 2: Twenty nine years of age, you've got to make a 474 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 2: crucial decision. 475 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: We'll make that call when you go to sign your contract. 476 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, but things can change, you know, like 477 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 2: things your life change. 478 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 5: As JB. 479 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: Because you started last year living in Melbourne and all 480 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: of a sudden you're living on the Gold Coast. 481 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 1: Things changed. That was three years ago. 482 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 4: How long that's gone? 483 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: But I don't know. 484 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 2: I just we've seen it happened before. Lee Colbert was 485 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 2: the captain of Geelong in maybe ninety ninety nine and 486 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 2: he left and went to North. 487 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 5: We saw. 488 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 2: Tom Lynch and Stephen may as captains of the Gold 489 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 2: Coast want to go off and pursue their dream of 490 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 2: winning premierships, and both of them succeeded in that. Tommy 491 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 2: one two and Mayse won one. So I get Cane 492 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 2: Corn's has been very outspoke about it and you know 493 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 2: you're leaving, you jumping a sinking ship almost But honestly, 494 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 2: he's given everything and more for that club over twelve years. 495 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 4: I don't think you can begrudge him. 496 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 6: Brownie, whose envelope would have been a bit heavier? Would 497 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 6: it have been current Essendon caps in Zach Merritt, Would 498 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 6: it have been delisted Gold Coast Sun Campbell Brown, whose 499 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 6: envelope would have been slightly heavier. 500 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: I got sacked. No, there's only one best selling author 501 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: on that bill, and that is our man. How the hell? 502 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: How the hell did the Journey's not get ahold of this? 503 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 1: Zach Merritt, No one knew who where he was last week? 504 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: He was the biggest story in football bar none.

I don't 510 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,959 Speaker 2: know how he knew, but it just happened to be uh, 511 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 2: Channel seven, which was good obviously host broadcaster. Uh, it 512 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 2: was just in the back blox. It was a great 513 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 2: building company, great guys. Some of them were They reckon 514 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:25,959 Speaker 2: Johnny sect is in hiding? 515 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: Did you know that? Yeah? 516 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 2: That was the No, he wasn't. I asked where he 517 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 2: was and they said he's in hiding. So yeah, I 518 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 2: don't know. I just I feel I feel like, yes 519 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 2: he's contracted, Yes he's on good money, and they yeah, 520 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 2: they've been over backwards to re sign him. 521 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 4: But here's another. 522 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,199 Speaker 1: Reason he said was what he said. No one's been 523 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,479 Speaker 1: able to get a quote from him all week. What 524 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 1: did he say about the whole. 525 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 5: He didn't say. He didn't say a lot. My purely 526 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 5: gut feel. 527 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 2: My gut feel is that he wants to leave you 528 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 2: and we'll do whatever's necessarily leave. 529 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: And did he say he leaked the story to Tom Morris? 530 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 5: No, they didn't say that. 531 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 1: Nah. Do you think that's every likelihood that's what happened before? 532 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 5: Well, player manager, that's going. 533 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: To make it easy if it inflames the situation, it 534 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: gets leaked out, it's going to make it easier for 535 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: him to get out, isn't it? 536 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,640 Speaker 5: It is? But I'll also say this, so. 537 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 2: You want to leave on really good terms, you know, 538 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 2: because he's he's a life member, and the cabinal terms 539 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 2: and not trading, no, but what I mean with the supporters, 540 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 2: and you don't want to just not rock up to 541 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 2: the best and fair, especially if he's going. 542 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 5: To win it and leave unceremoniously. 543 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 2: And you know, I think relationships need to be done 544 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 2: with the club because he'll want to go back there 545 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 2: when he's retired, you know, And you don't want to 546 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,479 Speaker 2: win a bn F and not rock up to your 547 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 2: best and first award as a final send off goodbye, 548 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So it'll be interesting to 549 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 2: see where he does go to the best and fairest. 550 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 2: My advice to him would be do it. 551 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 1: It's been a long history, hasn't it, brown Dogman. You 552 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: just think of what you've done to that football club 553 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: and I'm saying you, you and your cohort all the 554 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: way back from Dipper breaking Kevin Walsh's nose with a 555 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,959 Speaker 1: dirty elbow in the eighty four Grand Final to the 556 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 1: line in the sand game. All that's you mouthing off 557 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: at Matthew Lloyd when he ran to the bench. What 558 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: did Lloyd he do wrong? Now you're going to poach 559 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: Essenon's best player from that football probably the best player 560 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: in the last twenty years.

It's time for what a 565 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 2: world now? There this this caught me by surprise a 566 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 2: little bit. In Germany and Austria, a legal right to 567 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 2: control one's own image now extends to children and from 568 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:03,479 Speaker 2: the age of around fourteen, teens are considered capable of 569 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 2: making that judgment themselves. Right, this means parents parents must 570 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 2: seek their child's consent before sharing any photos online, and 571 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 2: if they don't, teens have the legal recourse. They can 572 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 2: request removal, pursuing junctions and even seek damages, sue their 573 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 2: parents right if they post something that they don't like, 574 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 2: and they've got to face the legal penalty. 575 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 5: So while no major court battles have surface, JET and 576 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 5: the rise. 577 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 2: Of sharenting they call it, which is over sharing content 578 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,959 Speaker 2: about your children is fueling a broader conversation around digital 579 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 2: rights and are reminded to families that kids are entitled 580 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 2: to control. 581 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 4: Their own online presence. 582 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 2: So there's a lot of people out there that they 583 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 2: just like to post photos of their kids in baths 584 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 2: and in the. 585 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 4: Pool and whatnot. Now they can sue them. 586 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: I'd be stuffed brown Dog, because I've been warned about 587 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: this by Olivia Brown a couple of times. Set it down.

So I've been accused 590 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,479 Speaker 1: a couple of times she would definitely be angling at 591 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: the inheritance, the early inheritance, wouldn't she If these laws 592 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: are in. 593 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 2: Place, absolutely so, what a world that'll probably come here 594 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 2: to Australia pretty quickly.

You know, last week 596 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 2: I gave a little bit of a rant, and I've 597 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 2: just got one this week because. 598 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 4: Wake up sort of Selan woke up Saturday morning. 599 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 2: I had a really nice Friday night and I immediately thought, 600 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 2: what can I get out of the day.

There was the neo Nazis from 609 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 2: the National Socialist Network that were in there right trying 610 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,959 Speaker 2: to just ruffle some feathers. There was the anti government 611 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 2: and immigration crew that were rolling down Flinders Street the 612 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 2: other way. Then you got the Marks for Australia right, 613 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 2: and then you've got the pro Palestinians how many people 614 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 2: wake up and just go fuck. 615 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 4: I want to protest. 616 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 2: Let's just protest about everything, but it's disruptive and cause 617 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 2: as much chaos as we possibly can.
