Speaker 2: Yeah?

21
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 4: One hundred percent. I reckon. As a kid, my sister Millie,

22
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 4: she used to beat me up, did she? Then as

23
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 4: soon as I hit puberty and started getting a bit stronger,

24
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 4: was the other day around. But it's always been footy

25
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 4: since day one. With the family.

26
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,680

00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 7: the Richmond footy club, Like.

28
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 3: It's a bit of a pinch me moment, isn't what

29
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 3: I mean?

30
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 4: Yeah it is, But I mean I've never played another club,

31
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 4: so I don't really know any different. But the Tiger

32
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,680

35
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, but no, I love it. Look, yeah, I

36
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 4: don't know much different, but they're enormous.

37
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 6: Who did you grow up barracking for Geelong because dad

38
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 6: played no choice? So then when you get drafted to

39
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 6: a team like Richmond, because you're still you're twenty.

40
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 4: One, yeah, twenty one.

00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 6: what is it like when you're like, oh my gosh,

43
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 6: I'm going to one of the biggest clubs in the AFL.

44
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 4: OH I don't really know, to be honest. I was

45
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 4: sitting at home and I wasn't really I hadn't spoken

46
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 4: to Richmond at all during like the sort of build

47
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 4: up to the draft, so I was sitting there, I

48
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 4: wasn't really looking at TV. I was on my phone

49
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 4: and I heard my name get called now and shit.

50
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 5: Like posters down.

51
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 4: And because Richmond be Gelong in the twenty twenty Grand Finals,

52
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 4: so I was kind of I was off and already that.

53
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 6: Was the one that was up in Brisbane cover grown.

54
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 4: I was Geelong hard that day. But then I mean,

55
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 4: as soon as you get picked up and get around

56
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 4: the club, there's like you see such a part of it.

57
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, so then you run onto the mcg and suddenly

58
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 7: surrounded by blokes you've been watching on the television. I mean,

59
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 7: who's a player that you played on that you're just

60
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 7: like that sort of takes my breath away.

61
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 4: Being a Geelong fan. My first sort of AFL experience,

62
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 4: I was versing Geelong in like a practice match and

63
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 4: I was next to Joel Sale and he's like, you're

64
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 4: in the wrong colors, mate, and I look, I.

65
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 3: Didn't say anything. I know, I didn't.

66
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 4: He actually rattled me and I was like ship and

67
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,839
Speaker 4: so it kind of switched me on though, which is good.

68
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 6: But that's like kind of getting a little sledge from johels.

69
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: Also nice sledge because it's ever going to be grubbing

70
