Speaker 3: plane and play my first game in a long time.

15
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,840
Speaker 1: Your daughter wasn't even born the last time you played

16
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,279
Speaker 1: that game. When she's like, she's probably talking now and

17
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,160
Speaker 1: saying yeah right, dad, she's not talking.

18
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 3: She's climbing benches and jumping on top of there and

19
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 3: throwing bananas everywhere, just in.

20
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: The team, don't follow up.

21
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 3: She's crazy. I definitely see where she gets it from.

22
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, So here we go. First up, we're off to

23
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 2: the Gold Coast because we don't get to play here

24
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 2: at home. Do we know the first two weeks of

25
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 2: the AFL season.

26
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 3: It wouldn't be the AFL to help us out, what

27
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 3: I know. Yeah, no, it's it's going to be a

28
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 3: good game. I'm looking forward to it. Hopefully, you know,

29
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 3: get through this one one session. But yeah, I reckon

30
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 3: they're going to be a top four team. Goldie.

31
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: Well, I looked pretty good on the weekend.

32
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 3: And they've got they've got stars and telling everywhere, that's

33
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 3: for sure. So yeah, I think they're going to be

34
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 3: a very good team. I think they're going to go

35
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 3: deep into the finals this year, and it'd be a

36
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 3: good udit for us to see we're at.

37
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: Where will we most likely see you playing this season?

38
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 3: Probably everywhere, to be honest, hopefully playing happy, healthy, just

39
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,559
Speaker 3: enjoying being out there helping the young kids get through.

40
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 2: And just going to say, because obviously you you know,

41
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: it's such a young team at the Eagles, they're going

42
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 2: to need you in various places, just as mental really.

43
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, well yeah, I think that's that's probably the aime

44
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 3: really so yeah as much. Yeah, yeah, that's that's my job. Now,

45
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 3: that's my role. A bit of a bit of a

46
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 3: wise old head even though I'm thirty two going on thirteen,

47
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 3: But it's still Yeah, it's still fun to be out

48
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 3: there and as much as I can help, that's that's

49
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 3: basically my role.

50
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, Oscar Allen of course left at the end of

51
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 1: the year. And there are two two captains co captains

52
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: and they're both Liams, Liam Duggan and Liam Baker. Is

53
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: that is that two Liams or a Liam I or what?

54
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 3: What? How do we.

55
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: Plural of two Liams?

56
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 3: Yeah?

57
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 2: Wow, well liams?

58
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. You could make it sound like

59
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 3: a law firm, Liam and Liam.

60
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Liam, there's a few that sound like law firms.

61
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,399
Speaker 1: Your new recruits sound like a law firm.

62
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 3: Cooper, Yeah, there's a few. There's a few in there.

63
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 1: Yes, no other recruits.

64
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 3: They're good. Yeah, there's some good talent come through this year,

65
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 3: which is really good. Desmo. I think it's going to

66
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 3: play a fair few games early on, and then from

67
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 3: that point on, I think he's feel like he's got

68
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 3: some very good talent that can, you know, make him

69
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 3: get to the point where we'll play two hundred games.

70
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 3: So that's my sort of perception. I think Coop as

71
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 3: well is he's going to be a very good ruckman,

72
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 3: and obviously he needs a little bit of time, like

73
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 3: they all do. But then Josh Lindsay as well is

74
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 3: very silky with his skills. So yeah, we've got some

75
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 3: really good recruits. For Eddie Rodriguez, I feel like he's

76
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 3: going to be a good player as well, hard at

77
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 3: it in an under type. So he's just coming back

78
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 3: from injury, but I think, you know, he'll show some

79
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 3: people as well what he's got.

80
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 2: So we lost Oscar to queenslamb but we're getting someone

81
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 2: back because two time Brisbane Premiership player Brandon Brandon Startsvich's back.

82
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 3: I know, playing first up now.

83
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 2: Very good player himself, a bit of an injury, but

84
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 2: like you he'll be a great mentor for that young.

85
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 3: Team absolutely, and then as well the experience that he

86
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 3: brings as well for the back line, what he be

87
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 3: able to see for the game, to be able to

88
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: help the younger kids and everyone on the team in

89
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 3: general as well. It's going to be so so helpful

90
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 3: for us going forward. So yeah, great great acquisition by

91
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 3: the football club.

92
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: In a nutshell, if you can, what is the realistic

93
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: goal for the Eagles this season.

94
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 3: To win more games than last year? How many last year?

95
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 3: Just the one, just the one, all right, So we're

96
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 3: going for two or more. Plenty more, yeah, plenty more. Look, Yeah,

97
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 3: it'd be great to get a fair few games under

98
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 3: the belt and win a few as well. I think

99
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 3: that that will help give us some confidence going forward.

100
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 3: And I feel like we're on the right track as well,

101
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 3: So it'll give us a good amount of confidence knowing

102
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 3: that we're on the right track going forward, and the

103
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 3: younger group as well.

104
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 2: And just to get those commentators going. I think they've

105
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 2: turned the corner. They're on their way up. If you

106
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 2: can have people saying that at the end of the season.

107
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, just to be competitive and in games of football,

108
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, that's all that we sort

109
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 3: of asked. There was a few games last year where

110
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 3: we weren't doing that, and that's that's very hard and

111
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 3: that's also a hard watch for the fans as well.

112
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 3: So as long as we're competitive, putting our best forward

113
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 3: every week and keeping the fans proud, that's all the manus.

114
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: Well, it kicks off or bounces down, off, throws up,

115
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: throwing up at three ten three ten is a bounced

116
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: down slash throw up on the Gold Coast. Good luck, comment.

117
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 2: Cheers, We're all counting on you. Sorry mate, I get

118

Speaker 2: through that training session today. Well, thank you Jack, have

119
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,720
