Speaker 1: Credit to track Christie Petrarca and Mason Cox because they
Speaker 1: were regulars on our show, yes, and when they would
Speaker 1: come in off the air before we'd go to wearing breaks,
Speaker 1: so they would just teach me little things about the game.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 1: And then Mason Cox just kept in touch with the
Speaker 1: family and would run me through games and yeah, and
Speaker 1: I sort of started.
Speaker 3: You felt like Collingwood was more for you.
Speaker 1: Collingwood just felt like my sort of crowd.
Speaker 2: And you've told us many times that once you decided
Speaker 2: on a team and your boys got into it, that
Speaker 2: you felt more at home in Melbourne. It gave you
Speaker 2: something to talk about with the dads at school. He
Speaker 2: changed your time in Melbourne.
Speaker 1: I was talking to one of the dads at school
Speaker 1: the other day and I actually walked away and I
Speaker 1: was like, I would not have been habit to have
Speaker 1: that conversation.
Speaker 2: For that's fifteen minutes, four years ago, proud Collingwood supporter.

Speaker 4: passionate he was about the Collingwood.

Speaker 3: Who wants to hear Jay's belled out?
Speaker 2: Come on, you've been you told us you've been practicing.
Speaker 3: I start strong, don't embarrass yourself.
Speaker 1: And then I always get the end.
Speaker 3: It sounds like a lot of excuses exactly.
Speaker 4: Sounds like Jase starts stronger.
Speaker 1: All right, here you go, good old Collingwood forever. They
Speaker 1: know how to play the game, side by side.
Speaker 6: They stick together for the good old see a shouting
Speaker 6: because that's what Barka's.
Speaker 3: Fans or the premier year.
Speaker 6: Together, that's together.
Speaker 2: My goodness, Well, that is a huge display of embarrassment
Speaker 2: from Jays Hawkins, especially in front of one of the
Speaker 2: greatest collagence, in front of the Macedonian Marvel general we
Speaker 2: had together for Peter Dacos, the godfather of my team,
Speaker 2: Jace Jas.
Speaker 7: What are we doing? I could do that?
Speaker 3: In my sleep, Peter Dacos. So you got from footy

Speaker 3: Job, Peter Dacos. Great to see you.
Speaker 7: Thank you.
Speaker 1: Happy grand a week mate, not the grand.
Speaker 7: No, yeah, look, I was was looking forward to this
Speaker 7: because we had planned we planned a big setup. But
Speaker 7: yeah it wasn't the Bee. The Lions were too good
Speaker 7: last week. So credit whek credits due, yep, got to
Speaker 7: get You've got to get to the big dance. Unfortunately
Speaker 7: our boys fell short.
Speaker 2: So your boy, your beautiful boys. They've had quite a
Speaker 2: big week, have they have? They recovered from their mad
Speaker 2: Monday into brown Low.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let me kicking of a snoop dogs.
Speaker 7: Well they were here yesterday, so Josh got in a
Speaker 7: bit early. I don't know where Nick is, he's still
Speaker 7: wandering around. But yes, so you were at the Sporting
Speaker 7: Globe so yeah, no, they had they had to get
Speaker 7: together Monday and commiserating red the game and then yeah
Speaker 7: they had their mad Wednesday, so yeah a little bit.
Speaker 2: Of a Yeah, I saw them all in their costumes.
Speaker 2: Did they have to dress up as their favorite sports star?
Speaker 7: Was that?
Speaker 4: It was Happy Gilmore.
Speaker 7: I'm not sure who who the boys? I was asking,
Speaker 7: I've seen I think Josh was Zohan. There was a
Speaker 7: movie with Zan and he was practicing his DJ moves
Speaker 7: and doing all that. So so an Alice, his fiance
Speaker 7: had shown me he's sort of pre routine and and
Speaker 7: I'm not sure who. But when I got home, I
Speaker 7: found wigs and I found still they raided your cupboard.
Speaker 3: You're telling me.
Speaker 2: After Wacky Wednesday whatever they call it, have to go
Speaker 2: home to mom and Dad's.
Speaker 7: Well, Josh's there with us because they have bought a home,
Speaker 7: but they're doing it so yeah, which reminds you I've
Speaker 7: got to put the rent up. Yeah, yeah, no they could.
Speaker 7: And then then Nick sort of chewing and throwing between
Speaker 7: there and his girlfriend's play.
Speaker 4: So yeah, So dakes as a man who loved to
Speaker 4: go on the mcg especially in the pockets, tight in
Speaker 4: the pockets. What do you make of Snoop's ability to
Speaker 4: find the big sticks?
Speaker 7: Well, I was just talking to Andrew Dillon down stairs.
Speaker 7: He said he only had two kicks, both goals. So
Speaker 7: because that's what.
Speaker 1: We were trying to work out whether he did a
Speaker 1: couple of pre well, no.
Speaker 7: Because the boy said he was two hours late. He
Speaker 7: wreaked the tobacco traditional to tobacco, I think, but yeah,
Speaker 7: he but they said no. He took to it straight away.
Speaker 7: Two kicks, two goals.
Speaker 4: Time with the SADA afterwards as well.
Speaker 1: Possibly Sebastian said when he worked with Snoop, remember he
Speaker 1: said he rocked up like I'm just concerned that Snoop's
Speaker 1: preco might be a half.
Speaker 3: They told him that the game was Friday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Peter Dakas, I know it's not the Grand Final
Speaker 2: week you would have hoped for, but we have an
Speaker 2: enormous game of footy on Saturday.
Speaker 3: Who do you think? How do you think this game
Speaker 3: is going to play out?
Speaker 7: Look, everyone has their slant on it. I think firstly,
Speaker 7: I'll say that our boys, all we did was look
Speaker 7: Harris Andrews a huge, huge and valuable player for them,
Speaker 7: so clearly stopped kicking it to him. I mean, let
Speaker 7: him find the ball, but maybe working a bit more
Speaker 7: along with their other bigger type defenders. They're big boys,
Speaker 7: so they do want the not too far from they'll
Speaker 7: contest overhead so just get them to work, run them
Speaker 7: up the ground, across the ground and back towards goal.
Speaker 7: I mean, you've just got to keep them going. McCluggage
Speaker 7: has to be tagged. But I like the Cats because
Speaker 7: they've got different gears. And I know it's an overused term,
Speaker 7: but they do have different gears. They can play long
Speaker 7: to a kneil and Jeremy Cameron. Cameron will come up
Speaker 7: the ground, but I like their smalls. They will chip
Speaker 7: up and you're always guessing how the ball moves. With Geelong,
Speaker 7: I mean they'll go short, they'll work it and then
Speaker 7: they can go long. So yeah, look, it will be
Speaker 7: a great game. But I'm expecting Geelong to win and win.
Speaker 1: Comfortably, Cats comfortably, just very quickly.
Speaker 4: Brown though night I don't know Nick fell short. There's
Speaker 4: been a bit of discussion about acknowledging players who finished
Speaker 4: second and third in the Brownlow. I mean would sort
Speaker 4: of be I mean, do we.
Speaker 5: Really need to do that.
Speaker 7: I don't think so. I mean, the Brownlow is a
Speaker 7: traditional award, So why we've changed so much of our
Speaker 7: game and I get it, I mean, why start tinkering
Speaker 7: with that? I mean, I don't think that's the issue.
Speaker 7: The issue is I think recognizing players per game and
Speaker 7: for a season. So yeah, there, I think liber had
Speaker 7: thirty five touches, ten tackles, kicked a goal, which was
Speaker 7: just a fair game, and that's how it was voted.
Speaker 7: You know he did.
Speaker 4: What about who won a game off his own boosts
Speaker 4: and they got two too? Mate?
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I just can't believe we all go to
Speaker 7: a game and if we don't have access to the stats,
Speaker 7: how many times do you say did he have that many?
Speaker 7: So you really do need to stats. The other thing
Speaker 7: is I always think get rid of the efficiency rule.
Speaker 7: I listened to commentators talk about efficiency. A bloke can
Speaker 7: get twenty touches and kick at fifteen meters, you know,
Speaker 7: yet the kid that or someone that gets it and
Speaker 7: tries to kick at thirty or forty that's a whole
Speaker 7: a lot harder than chipping sideways and going fifteen meters
Speaker 7: to keep your efficiency up. So there's a lot of
Speaker 7: things that, yeah, I reckon there should be a post game.
Speaker 7: Have a have some type of senior ex player or
Speaker 7: someone come in and just do a post sort of
Speaker 7: review with the game and maybe maybe then sort of
Speaker 7: come up with who the players were that impacted well, Peter.
Speaker 1: Jacos joining us on the Enjoy Grand on a weekend.
Speaker 7: Thank you and you make sure you learn.
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm in trouble with the client.
Speaker 4: What are you doing for Grand Final Day?
Speaker 7: I'm I'm working with the AFL, so I've got a
Speaker 7: function on there till just before the game. So I'm
Speaker 7: looking forward to or serving doing nothing part of my
Speaker 7: life these days, which is good.
Speaker 3: Always great to see you, Peter. Take those beautiful.
Speaker 7: Boys and your
Speaker 3: En wake up feeling good following them on the socials
