<v Speaker 1>you look out for that one. But without further ado,

0:00:34.600 --> 0:00:42.800
<v Speaker 1>let's get into it. Without further ado. Welcome Brendon, Let's

0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:43.400
<v Speaker 1>get into it.

0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:47.479
<v Speaker 2>Oh Mason, it's finally here. Prelim final week. I don't know,

0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:49.880
<v Speaker 2>I can't tell if you're nervous or not. I'm trying

0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:53.440
<v Speaker 2>to gauge your vibe, but I'll leave that for now.

0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:55.800
<v Speaker 2>Let that settle as we jumped straight into our klang

0:00:55.880 --> 0:00:56.480
<v Speaker 2>is what do you got?

0:00:56.640 --> 0:01:00.120
<v Speaker 1>You know we love mothers on this podcast, and there

0:01:00.200 --> 0:01:02.640
<v Speaker 1>was one mother that might have been Bog of the weekend.

0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:07.800
<v Speaker 1>It was probably be o Og maybe best on off No,

0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:11.240
<v Speaker 1>best off ground. She's still beg best off ground mom.

0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:15.199
<v Speaker 1>We got there in the end. Toby Bedsford Toby Bedford's

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:18.319
<v Speaker 1>mom from GWS. She let's just say I had a

0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:21.039
<v Speaker 1>few shampus over the weekend right at the game, as

0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 1>you do. Yeah, it's rude not to you're in enemy territory,

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:27.399
<v Speaker 1>You're sitting there. Big win for the boys, and she

0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:30.040
<v Speaker 1>decided to, you know, get a mic thrown in her

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:34.080
<v Speaker 1>face and make some just really loving comments and it

0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:37.520
<v Speaker 1>was absolute TV gold all. I'm gonna quote these now.

0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:41.640
<v Speaker 1>I cannot be prouder. I'm just like Giant. The Green

0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:45.319
<v Speaker 1>Army is coming. I don't know if anyone updated her.

0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>It was the Orange Army is what they call themselves.

0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:51.680
<v Speaker 1>So she did apologize to straight after that. I said

0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:54.480
<v Speaker 1>what I said, Green Collingwood are quaking because the earth

0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>is a shaking. Now I'm not sure if that was

0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>her visual on the night, is just everything was shaking

0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 1>or what was going on, but very good comments from

0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:05.120
<v Speaker 1>her and Hamish. I think she came up when Stephen

0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:09.359
<v Speaker 1>Kinderglar was getting interviewed after the game and he ushered

0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.239
<v Speaker 1>her off pretty quickly. Let's just say that it was

0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:13.400
<v Speaker 1>absolute TV goal.

0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:16.079
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't deal with that one. I don't do well

0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:19.920
<v Speaker 2>in awkward moments or awkward situations, and that almost just

0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:20.520
<v Speaker 2>taught me.

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>And then your mom's sitting there, just the one that's

0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 1>just lighting it up after the game.

0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:26.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I do the same thing. I was very

0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:29.440
<v Speaker 2>much doing the exact same thing. But I normally I'm

0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 2>at home on the couch, I'm not on National TV.

0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, with the mic in your face, I feel like

0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 1>they almost were like trying to get her on TV

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:41.760
<v Speaker 1>because she was absolutely hilarious on the night. What is

0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 1>your claimer for this week?

0:02:42.960 --> 0:02:46.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, I went more football orientated and I just have

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:48.920
<v Speaker 2>to say that to me, it was a no brainer

0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:52.760
<v Speaker 2>and it's a real hindsight operator type setup. But the

0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:56.960
<v Speaker 2>non selection of Brodie Grundy in the Melbourne team, because

0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:00.120
<v Speaker 2>it's really hard no matter what way you spin it.

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:02.200
<v Speaker 2>To me, it doesn't make sense. If you're talking about

0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:05.880
<v Speaker 2>going into the game. Max Gorn has some question marks

0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:09.200
<v Speaker 2>over his fitness. Broken toe. We heard it all week.

0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:13.079
<v Speaker 2>So if you have your ruck who's going into the

0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:16.240
<v Speaker 2>game with an injury, why wouldn't you pick up the

0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:19.480
<v Speaker 2>backup all Australian ruckman that you just have just chilling

0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:21.880
<v Speaker 2>all the comments said throughout the year of like, oh,

0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:24.400
<v Speaker 2>we still really value him and like respect him, and

0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:26.800
<v Speaker 2>he's a Melbourne player until the end of the season,

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:30.040
<v Speaker 2>and see what happens from there. But for him not

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:33.760
<v Speaker 2>to get picked and they roll with Josh Shacky and

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:37.480
<v Speaker 2>then to not put Josh Shacky into the game and

0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:42.320
<v Speaker 2>you lose by less than a goal what he has done,

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:47.280
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't make any sense, like pick Brody Grundy. He's

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:51.440
<v Speaker 2>a good player. There's definitely no chance, no way that

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 2>it would have been a professionalism thing on Brady Grundy's

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:57.160
<v Speaker 2>point of view, Like I've zero doubt in my mind

0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.240
<v Speaker 2>knowing him and spending time with him that he's true

0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:02.360
<v Speaker 2>professional and he'd go out there and give one hundred

0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:04.200
<v Speaker 2>and ten percent and one hundred and ten percent of

0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:05.840
<v Speaker 2>Brodie grund he's a hell of a lot better than

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:10.480
<v Speaker 2>no such getting into the game and playing every any minutes.

0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.000
<v Speaker 2>So it has to be the biggest clanger. It's easy

0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 2>in hindsight because you go like, well, clearly, but I

0:04:16.560 --> 0:04:18.000
<v Speaker 2>would have said that going into the game.

0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:19.920
<v Speaker 1>I kind of found it amazing if they actually made

0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:23.720
<v Speaker 1>the broken toe of Maxicon public I would not say anything. No,

0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:26.240
<v Speaker 1>I want to know. Yeah, I don't know why that

0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:29.719
<v Speaker 1>was necessary information for them to tell the public. Thought

0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 1>that I was like all the week, I was going

0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 1>like if I was Max One, I wouldn't want anyone

0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:34.720
<v Speaker 1>to know. I'd be like, you know, I'll just go

0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:36.479
<v Speaker 1>hide this injury. It's inside a shoot. No one even

0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:38.480
<v Speaker 1>see me like walking around with any kind of bandage

0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:38.760
<v Speaker 1>at all.

0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:41.880
<v Speaker 2>XN on the Roken bay Ota, I.

0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:43.479
<v Speaker 1>Didn't know what that means Latin.

0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:44.719
<v Speaker 2>Fact, don't talk about the.

0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Language, mads Well and truly dead.

0:04:47.080 --> 0:04:47.720
<v Speaker 2>It's Latin.

0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, dead if anyone that speaks Latin, it's a spoken word.

0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:59.159
<v Speaker 1>We'll get into the games. Melbourne versus Carlton Massive Massive game.

0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Obviously probably everyone knows exactly what happened on this, but

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:05.200
<v Speaker 1>we're going to break it down moment by moment. Now

0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:08.800
<v Speaker 1>there's a crowd of ninety six, four hundred and twelve people.

0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:12.039
<v Speaker 1>Pretty good, That is a lot, pretty good, and see

0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:14.719
<v Speaker 1>figured it out. Get the other four thousand in there.

0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:19.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, a lot of Obviously Carlton heavy game crowd was ballistic.

0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:22.760
<v Speaker 2>A lot of reports going around all the that you

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:26.240
<v Speaker 2>could feel the earth shaking and the stadium was quaking

0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:30.080
<v Speaker 2>and the Acres goal that sealed it all off. It

0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:30.839
<v Speaker 2>was pretty nute.

0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:32.600
<v Speaker 1>It was loose, it was I think the one thing

0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:34.919
<v Speaker 1>made me realize how loud it was is you know,

0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:37.320
<v Speaker 1>you get the last camera angle like they go straight

0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:39.440
<v Speaker 1>to like crips the captain or something right as the

0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:43.640
<v Speaker 1>sirron goes and the cameraman, who I'm assumming was just stagnant,

0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:46.679
<v Speaker 1>right and stable. It was shaken all over there. Earth

0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:50.320
<v Speaker 1>was a quaked. It was usual that Toby Bedford's mom

0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:53.159
<v Speaker 1>was getting on the night and oh man, it was.

0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:55.039
<v Speaker 1>It sounded like an absolute colse, which is wild because

0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 1>it was actually a Melbourne home game, which is even

0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 1>funnier because I was looking at the mcc win I was, yeah,

0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:00.839
<v Speaker 1>it's all red.

0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:05.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well like there is. There's been a few conflicts

0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:09.360
<v Speaker 2>with these home games this final series, but no, it's

0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:11.000
<v Speaker 2>good to say them. It's good to see Carlton fans

0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:12.840
<v Speaker 2>up and about. I think how we should do this.

0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:14.680
<v Speaker 2>We should go through the good the bad of each

0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:16.919
<v Speaker 2>team and we'll start with the team that suck. So

0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:22.080
<v Speaker 2>we'll jump into Melbourne. Melbourne four consecutive finals losses at

0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:25.480
<v Speaker 2>the MCG not what you want to hear as a

0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:29.760
<v Speaker 2>Melbourne fan, and back to back straight set losses.

0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:32.520
<v Speaker 1>No ideal. I think it was kind of like that,

0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Like I guess the story before they even went into

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:36.880
<v Speaker 1>this game of like, oh, there's a bit of pressure

0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:39.240
<v Speaker 1>that could go back to back straight sets, and I

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:40.520
<v Speaker 1>just kind of got to the point where I was like, well,

0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:43.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, like you're in finals that point, it's like

0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:45.520
<v Speaker 1>every team you're playing is cream of the crop, right,

0:06:45.560 --> 0:06:47.760
<v Speaker 1>and like there's some teams that are obviously on a roll,

0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 1>like Carlton was, and then there's other teams that you know,

0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:52.679
<v Speaker 1>you're playing the top four, which are the best teams

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:55.000
<v Speaker 1>in the comp right, So it's always tough to win

0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:58.159
<v Speaker 1>those games, but to go back out in straight sets,

0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:00.960
<v Speaker 1>it's it's going to be frustrating, There's no doubt about that.

0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And it's yeah, definitely like we knew Carlton GWS

0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:10.160
<v Speaker 2>even like the other two Sydney and who else went

0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:13.640
<v Speaker 2>out in the first week, kildo like they were all competitive.

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 2>The bottom four of the top eight was still really

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:19.640
<v Speaker 2>competitive and probably arguably in better form than a couple

0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:23.720
<v Speaker 2>of the top four teams. But yeah, it didn't help

0:07:23.960 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 2>their goalkicking accuracy in the last because it like Melbourne

0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.080
<v Speaker 2>kicked two six in the last to Carlton's four too,

0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.960
<v Speaker 2>So you flip that around and yeah, there was some

0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 2>easy shots, some poor discipline, like I take it back

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:41.520
<v Speaker 2>to Picketts jump a punch on McGovern that handed away

0:07:41.800 --> 0:07:44.360
<v Speaker 2>like a free shot at goal. Like there was a

0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:49.400
<v Speaker 2>lot of incidents like that, Sparrow pulling Walsh into the fans,

0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:52.520
<v Speaker 2>giving way free kicks just like dum dumb stuff like

0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:55.920
<v Speaker 2>that that gives away field position. You got to reset,

0:07:56.200 --> 0:07:59.040
<v Speaker 2>you give away a goal, like you can't do that

0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:02.440
<v Speaker 2>stuff in finals. Scores added like hard to come by.

0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:05.240
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I don't know, it's.

0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Costly mistakes and you talk about like them. I think

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:11.440
<v Speaker 1>what was the Melbourne like nine to seventeen to Carlton

0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:13.600
<v Speaker 1>eleven seven on the day, Like they have plenty of

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:14.920
<v Speaker 1>shots at goal and I think there's like two or

0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 1>three of that hit a post and then you're sitting

0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:19.240
<v Speaker 1>there going like one of those converts then you win

0:08:19.280 --> 0:08:22.080
<v Speaker 1>the game. So it's this thing of whenever you get

0:08:22.080 --> 0:08:23.680
<v Speaker 1>a chance and finals you got to make the most

0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:25.520
<v Speaker 1>of it whenever it comes in front of goal, especially

0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:27.760
<v Speaker 1>if you're in a such shot scenario, and there's there's

0:08:27.760 --> 0:08:29.560
<v Speaker 1>so many that I feel like we're that close to

0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:31.040
<v Speaker 1>being a goal that could have just gone to of

0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:33.320
<v Speaker 1>kept them in that momentum and be able to get

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:35.120
<v Speaker 1>them across the line, but unfortunately it just didn't fall.

0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 2>For now, there was a few incidents in the game,

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 2>and we have kind of touched on the just shacky

0:08:42.040 --> 0:08:46.920
<v Speaker 2>non sub call. Is that something that you're likely to

0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:49.360
<v Speaker 2>see in a game that it's like you have a

0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:51.680
<v Speaker 2>guy in there and you just don't just decide to

0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.280
<v Speaker 2>use him because they used Hollins and he came on

0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:56.920
<v Speaker 2>and had an impact, was involved in the last play

0:08:57.080 --> 0:09:00.960
<v Speaker 2>which led to the winning goal. So like, especially the

0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 2>contrast of your sub coming on and doing something when

0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:07.480
<v Speaker 2>the opponent doesn't even use theirs, it's like highlighted to

0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:08.079
<v Speaker 2>the extreme.

0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I think, like we talked about this before the pod

0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:11.840
<v Speaker 1>was he was supposed to go in for what Max

0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:13.200
<v Speaker 1>go on if you needed to come off, and then

0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:15.760
<v Speaker 1>Tom McDonald go into the rock. So the fact that

0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Max was like, no, I'm good to play out the game. Obviously,

0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:19.440
<v Speaker 1>as a captain, you'd want to see out the rest

0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:20.920
<v Speaker 1>of the game no matter what your kind of injury

0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:24.080
<v Speaker 1>is they kind of put this awkward position of like

0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:27.400
<v Speaker 1>do we play him given this scenario isn't playing out

0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:30.040
<v Speaker 1>as we wanted it to, knowing that he would have

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 1>to go to that key forward role shacky. So yeah,

0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:34.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, Like I mean, like we I think

0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:37.160
<v Speaker 1>about it. Whenever we played our last game, getting came

0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:38.719
<v Speaker 1>on in the fourth like halfway through the four, so

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.440
<v Speaker 1>I think, like, we didn't pull our sub until you know,

0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:43.080
<v Speaker 1>the very end of the game, and he was able

0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:44.599
<v Speaker 1>to make impact and that short amount of time he

0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.120
<v Speaker 1>out out there. But like that game plan they probably

0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:49.120
<v Speaker 1>had as far as using the sub probably didn't play

0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:50.920
<v Speaker 1>out as they wanted it to. And then as the

0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:53.600
<v Speaker 1>game went on, I assume Max would have just pulled

0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:54.920
<v Speaker 1>the card and said, like, no, I'm going to play

0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:56.199
<v Speaker 1>this out because I want to win this game. And

0:09:56.240 --> 0:09:57.959
<v Speaker 1>it was. It was a close game and everything else too,

0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 1>See like Melbourne goes up early, probably put Shack in,

0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:03.000
<v Speaker 1>and like Max comes off and it's like, great, we're

0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:04.439
<v Speaker 1>going to arrest him. He could try to get better,

0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:07.280
<v Speaker 1>like you know, everything goes well. But given the fact

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.200
<v Speaker 1>it was such a tight game, I don't think you

0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:11.959
<v Speaker 1>really want to pull your captain out in that scenario.

0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:14.240
<v Speaker 2>They kind of backed themselves into the corner rolling the

0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:20.640
<v Speaker 2>dice on the Shecky sub because their forwards were actually

0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:23.160
<v Speaker 2>pretty good. Like you got Fritch and you got Smith,

0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:25.280
<v Speaker 2>who was like the most accurate on the day, kicking

0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:27.600
<v Speaker 2>three straight. You got pick it. It's like, who do

0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:30.240
<v Speaker 2>you take off? He's not going to inject like any

0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:32.720
<v Speaker 2>speed into the game. We're going to keep Max going

0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:33.720
<v Speaker 2>out there. We need him.

0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:35.880
<v Speaker 1>But if it didn't play out that way, like given

0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:37.520
<v Speaker 1>the fact that how a lot of people are talking

0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:39.480
<v Speaker 1>about the forwards of Melbourne whenever they played us, and

0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:41.520
<v Speaker 1>they weren't performing at what a lot of people expected

0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:45.160
<v Speaker 1>them to, you're probably almost going okay, Like if they

0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.200
<v Speaker 1>have the same kind of game I guess that they

0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:49.400
<v Speaker 1>had the week before, then we might try to change

0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:50.840
<v Speaker 1>something up and throw them in there and throw them

0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:51.920
<v Speaker 1>in the mix and see if he can kind of

0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:53.520
<v Speaker 1>maybe give us a bit of a burst of energy.

0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:57.040
<v Speaker 1>So I can understand both sides of that, but not

0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.960
<v Speaker 1>using a sub just almost seems like a waste whenever

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>it's an opportunity to get a bit of fresh legs

0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:02.719
<v Speaker 1>into the.

0:11:02.640 --> 0:11:06.400
<v Speaker 2>Game massively, And we talked about picket giving away a

0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:09.960
<v Speaker 2>free kick on McGovern. He also had an incident jeez,

0:11:10.320 --> 0:11:13.040
<v Speaker 2>similar to his incident earlier in the year where he

0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.520
<v Speaker 2>like jumped off the ground and rocketed into I think

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:18.199
<v Speaker 2>it was Bailey Smith's head and it could have killed in.

0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:22.960
<v Speaker 2>But he's jumped off the ground and kind of collected

0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:28.240
<v Speaker 2>Crips in the face with his back head almost.

0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Shoulder and missed him. Yeah, cooked his head.

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and Crips went down bleeding from the mouth. Had

0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:39.120
<v Speaker 2>to come from the ground. Picket got a week kind

0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:39.880
<v Speaker 2>of lucky in the end.

0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:42.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh. As soon as his feet left the ground,

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:44.319
<v Speaker 1>I was like, he's in trouble, he's a strife.

0:11:44.400 --> 0:11:46.439
<v Speaker 2>I feel like it's bad that you don't learn from the.

0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:48.760
<v Speaker 1>First time, because the AFL would be going, we told

0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:52.280
<v Speaker 1>you not to do this. You're learning from your license.

0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:54.120
<v Speaker 1>We will punish you. That's what I did. They gave

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:56.040
<v Speaker 1>him a week, man, And I mean, I guess at

0:11:56.040 --> 0:11:58.120
<v Speaker 1>this time, they're probably not the top thing on your

0:11:58.120 --> 0:11:59.920
<v Speaker 1>mind after just losing and getting knocked out of the

0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:03.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, out of your season. But yeah, obviously won't

0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:04.920
<v Speaker 1>play the first game of the season next year. But

0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:08.280
<v Speaker 1>she's a pretty steeple on that Melbourne team, so I'm

0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:10.360
<v Speaker 1>sure it'll come in round too and be right in it.

0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 2>And should we move across to Carlton's game celebrate a

0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:16.080
<v Speaker 2>bit of what the Blues have been able to do

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:18.200
<v Speaker 2>because it's their first time they've played in a prelim

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:20.679
<v Speaker 2>since the year two thousand. How old were you?

0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:25.400
<v Speaker 1>I was young. I was young, There's no doubt about that.

0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:28.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know I was nine. It was nine

0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:30.640
<v Speaker 1>years old. Let's just say I remember why two k

0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:33.280
<v Speaker 1>I remember the Internet was going to go down. We're

0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:35.800
<v Speaker 1>all going to end up losing ourselves and you know,

0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:37.600
<v Speaker 1>everything was just gonna ship, was gonna hit the fan,

0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:41.199
<v Speaker 1>We're all going to die, and that happened. We just

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:42.040
<v Speaker 1>keep taking along.

0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 2>How tall were you when you were nine?

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:46.560
<v Speaker 1>I think it's probably like six foot eight. Maybe it

0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:46.880
<v Speaker 1>was just.

0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:51.280
<v Speaker 2>Got it done early, that's it.

0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:54.079
<v Speaker 1>No, I would have been normal height, mate, normal height.

0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:56.800
<v Speaker 2>And we've spoken about Robbie Williams two weeks in a row.

0:12:56.880 --> 0:12:59.160
<v Speaker 1>It's getting a bit of media. Old Bobby Williams loven't it.

0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:03.080
<v Speaker 2>He is a jinx for Sydney. And then Carlton made

0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:05.560
<v Speaker 2>the pitch to say, hey, come across and get on

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:09.240
<v Speaker 2>the Carlton Bandwagon and he jumped on board and he

0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:13.040
<v Speaker 2>sung a song postgame after the Blues won about Tom

0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:15.480
<v Speaker 2>de Kerney. What was it?

0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:18.040
<v Speaker 1>Please tell the rendition? What is it?

0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:21.200
<v Speaker 2>It was like Lovers in the Air, but with Tom Deckurney.

0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Sure, but just like he was like sitting in bed,

0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:26.280
<v Speaker 1>which I just felt was really awkward to be filming

0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:28.760
<v Speaker 1>anything in bed, just kind of the place.

0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:31.440
<v Speaker 2>Williams he does his best work there, you think, do

0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:34.680
<v Speaker 2>you think? But it's been a pretty crazy final series

0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:38.479
<v Speaker 2>for someone that we can celebrate, celebrate Blake Acres the Sheriffs.

0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:41.839
<v Speaker 2>He's had some kind of final series because the first

0:13:41.880 --> 0:13:44.560
<v Speaker 2>game he nailed a couple of touches on the line

0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:48.200
<v Speaker 2>that saved goals and kicked the sealer. And he's done

0:13:48.240 --> 0:13:50.840
<v Speaker 2>it again, kicked the celer with a cook shoulder. He's

0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:52.400
<v Speaker 2>just going out there and doing it all.

0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:55.319
<v Speaker 1>One half contested mark at the end of the game.

0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:59.439
<v Speaker 1>A bit of questions around, wait, holder, how much space

0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:02.680
<v Speaker 1>do I have? I'll dribble this one through. And it

0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:05.720
<v Speaker 1>wasn't like I mean, it was close to the pole.

0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>I feel like the post was there and I'm sitting

0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:11.520
<v Speaker 1>there watching it, going, oh gosh, he's playing on here like,

0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:13.400
<v Speaker 1>oh no, what is he gonna do? But can you

0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:16.880
<v Speaker 1>imagine if he took the mark, came back and slaughtered

0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:19.200
<v Speaker 1>the set shot with the suspense of the crowd and

0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:23.120
<v Speaker 1>everything else, and essentially at the siren he's kicking the goal.

0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 2>I hope everyone was okay out of that situation. You

0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:28.479
<v Speaker 2>cut to the white shot and they were going ballistic.

0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god.

0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:31.400
<v Speaker 2>Now the amount of people that have posted the photos

0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:34.080
<v Speaker 2>of their like smart watch going like their heart was beating,

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:37.960
<v Speaker 2>Like surely there's some old people in there. So I

0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:41.360
<v Speaker 2>hope everyone's okay. But yeah, it was. I don't know.

0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:44.240
<v Speaker 2>It's been pretty specially he's had a great final series

0:14:44.640 --> 0:14:49.520
<v Speaker 2>and speak about a great final Sam Walsh thirty four touches,

0:14:49.680 --> 0:14:51.360
<v Speaker 2>two goals, eight tackles.

0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:53.680
<v Speaker 1>He's just killing it. To throw them into the wall

0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:55.440
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter. He's still going to get some touches and

0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:56.400
<v Speaker 1>he's doing some goals.

0:14:56.440 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 2>And he has built into it because he was injured

0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:03.040
<v Speaker 2>earlier in the season and started playing games and was

0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:07.000
<v Speaker 2>accumulating a lot and people were questioning the damage that

0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:10.240
<v Speaker 2>he was doing in games. Well, yeah, he really took

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:11.960
<v Speaker 2>it away from him in this one. It was a

0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:14.360
<v Speaker 2>really impressive performance whenever he came.

0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Back and started playing. You, I think that's probably whenever

0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:19.160
<v Speaker 1>they started turning around their season. So you got to say, like,

0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:21.040
<v Speaker 1>he's one of those players that maybe is able to

0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:22.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of break lines and be able to get them

0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:23.960
<v Speaker 1>to that next step to get to the forward line,

0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:26.080
<v Speaker 1>because that was a big issue in that first half

0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:28.120
<v Speaker 1>of the season. So to have someone who kind of

0:15:28.120 --> 0:15:30.240
<v Speaker 1>connects the back line to the forward line, similar to

0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:32.640
<v Speaker 1>like Nick Decos for us, right, like he'll take people

0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:34.760
<v Speaker 1>on hit forty five's like hit people that you probably

0:15:34.760 --> 0:15:37.120
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't be able to do. That just allows the ball

0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:39.160
<v Speaker 1>to get moving forward, to be able to get access

0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:41.520
<v Speaker 1>to the forward line. So I think that's kind of

0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.720
<v Speaker 1>the wash effect for Carleton. That's going to helped them

0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:46.720
<v Speaker 1>solve some of the issues from the beginning of the season.

0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:48.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it does take the pressure off the others

0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:50.800
<v Speaker 2>in their midfield. When you've got a bloke in there

0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:54.560
<v Speaker 2>getting thirty five, he needs a bit of attention. Jacob

0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:57.400
<v Speaker 2>Wiedering there was a scary moment for Carlton fans heart

0:15:57.440 --> 0:16:00.520
<v Speaker 2>and mouth stuff where he laid a tackle and cupped

0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:04.560
<v Speaker 2>his shoulder to what the AFL is calling neck and

0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:10.240
<v Speaker 2>throat area, and he got up very woozy and you know,

0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:12.680
<v Speaker 2>unsteady on his feet. You could say.

0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:15.880
<v Speaker 1>A little bit of a wabble.

0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:18.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to say anything that can get the

0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:22.720
<v Speaker 2>cart and lawyer on to me. So, yeah, the AFL

0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:25.120
<v Speaker 2>has ticked it off. You got the all clear. Carlton

0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:29.040
<v Speaker 2>put him through a quick assessment and went he's all sweet.

0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:33.400
<v Speaker 2>So happy days for Wetering and the Carlton fans. But

0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:35.840
<v Speaker 2>it would have been a very nervous moment, as was

0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:41.080
<v Speaker 2>a very nervous moment of Doc actually dislocating his shoulder

0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:43.680
<v Speaker 2>in the first half and it kind of looked done

0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:45.840
<v Speaker 2>for him, and then he came back out and played

0:16:45.840 --> 0:16:46.640
<v Speaker 2>out the rest of the game.

0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:49.240
<v Speaker 1>It was insane, like I've ever seeing that, and I

0:16:49.280 --> 0:16:51.040
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh no, like one of our favorite players

0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:53.560
<v Speaker 1>has gone like he's done. And then next thing you know,

0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:55.520
<v Speaker 1>he's like DEVI was strapped mob figure it out, and

0:16:55.600 --> 0:16:58.000
<v Speaker 1>he's back on the magic that happens down in those rooms.

0:16:58.040 --> 0:16:59.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure what they're doing with the dark and stuff,

0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:03.040
<v Speaker 1>but you'd think they're doing some kind of like cyber

0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:04.680
<v Speaker 1>arm thing board.

0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:05.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure.

0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure there is and if it isn't, they've got

0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:10.760
<v Speaker 1>a perfect lawyer to figure it out, Brandon. But yeah, no,

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:12.480
<v Speaker 1>it was incredible and for him to come back and

0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:15.119
<v Speaker 1>play obviously like it's yeah, it's a massive deal for him.

0:17:15.119 --> 0:17:17.200
<v Speaker 1>We talked about like his first final teen years into

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:20.360
<v Speaker 1>his career, like you know, the first round. So yeah,

0:17:20.400 --> 0:17:22.360
<v Speaker 1>it's an incredible opportunity for him. I'm sure he would

0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:23.760
<v Speaker 1>be that amped up to be a part of it

0:17:23.800 --> 0:17:24.959
<v Speaker 1>and just wanted to be out there. So I can

0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:27.000
<v Speaker 1>understand that he came out and he did his job.

0:17:27.160 --> 0:17:29.760
<v Speaker 2>I feel like Doc is one of those blocks that

0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:32.479
<v Speaker 2>you'd have to rip his arm off and he'd probably

0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:36.199
<v Speaker 2>still be out there running around just bandaged up. It

0:17:36.240 --> 0:17:38.080
<v Speaker 2>was what you know when you sometimes you see a

0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:39.840
<v Speaker 2>bloke go down, You're like, oh, he's Knight's done. I

0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 2>wonder when they're going to pull the sub and stuff,

0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:43.680
<v Speaker 2>And then like a couple of minutes later, you see

0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:45.800
<v Speaker 2>him just like trotting down the wing or something.

0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Actually without any issue, no limping, know nothing, and you're like,

0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:51.920
<v Speaker 1>what has happened? How is this possible?

0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:54.200
<v Speaker 2>That magic spray? I tell you that's wild.

0:17:54.240 --> 0:17:56.000
<v Speaker 1>But we'll move on to the next one. Poort Adelaid

0:17:56.040 --> 0:18:00.199
<v Speaker 1>versus GWS at Adelaide Oval and the capacity here is

0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:02.719
<v Speaker 1>fifty five, sorry, fifty three, five hundred eighty three. There

0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:05.560
<v Speaker 1>were only forty five and twenty and I say only,

0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:08.440
<v Speaker 1>but like, what's be realistic. That's still really good turnout

0:18:08.480 --> 0:18:10.920
<v Speaker 1>for Port Adelaide. But probably I was thinking this was

0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:11.760
<v Speaker 1>going to be a sellout.

0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:15.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there was a lot of people, I don't know,

0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:19.640
<v Speaker 2>questioning it during the week, Port Adelaide fans unsure if

0:18:19.680 --> 0:18:22.000
<v Speaker 2>they were going to sell it out. I saw people

0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:25.600
<v Speaker 2>posting like the seating and saying that, you know, it

0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:28.439
<v Speaker 2>was pretty slow ticket sales, whereas you look at something

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:32.040
<v Speaker 2>like Collingwood GWS is gone. That's gone. You can't get

0:18:32.080 --> 0:18:36.520
<v Speaker 2>tickets to that game. So yeah, it was. I don't

0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:39.280
<v Speaker 2>know if it was a reflection of like the pricing,

0:18:40.119 --> 0:18:42.760
<v Speaker 2>or if it was a reflection of like the belief

0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:46.680
<v Speaker 2>in where the team sits after a loss going against GWS,

0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:52.560
<v Speaker 2>the almighty Legend bills now, but forty five still a

0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.920
<v Speaker 2>pretty good still, still a pretty good turnout. We don't

0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:59.119
<v Speaker 2>want to take the piss too much, but yeah, I

0:18:59.160 --> 0:19:02.199
<v Speaker 2>think the one thing that just immediately jumps off the

0:19:02.200 --> 0:19:07.760
<v Speaker 2>page port kicking one nine or having one to nine

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:12.679
<v Speaker 2>score in the last they could have done some damage.

0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Gobois had the momentum the whole game, like

0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:18.680
<v Speaker 1>first quarter came out and they were just marking everything.

0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:20.560
<v Speaker 1>I feel like it was just one of those days

0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:22.840
<v Speaker 1>where Jesse Hogan was on. He was just being able

0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:25.040
<v Speaker 1>to clunk everything was he kicked I think four to

0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:26.919
<v Speaker 1>four on the day. And there's a certain point there.

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:29.280
<v Speaker 1>I feel like gwis they missed a few set shots

0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:31.159
<v Speaker 1>essentially right before half I think it was, and a

0:19:31.160 --> 0:19:33.240
<v Speaker 1>few like snaps on goal and that could have just

0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:36.840
<v Speaker 1>put this game over with before halftime even happened. But yeah,

0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:38.320
<v Speaker 1>going into that fourth quarter, I mean, if you look

0:19:38.359 --> 0:19:40.359
<v Speaker 1>at one to nine and the difference is, you know,

0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:43.280
<v Speaker 1>twenty three points, you kick a few of those, it's

0:19:43.280 --> 0:19:45.639
<v Speaker 1>a legitimate game like between the two even though like

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:47.960
<v Speaker 1>you haven't been really ahead by any means the whole

0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:51.600
<v Speaker 1>game from then forward, So it into the first three.

0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:53.600
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, you get the crowd into a man like

0:19:53.680 --> 0:19:55.480
<v Speaker 1>everyone knows port out of loads fans are crazy and

0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:58.280
<v Speaker 1>they provide a bit of an entertainment aspect to it.

0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:01.280
<v Speaker 1>There's no doubt about that. And yeah, it's just it's

0:20:01.280 --> 0:20:02.960
<v Speaker 1>one of those things, like I said we said earlier,

0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:05.320
<v Speaker 1>like goal kicking accuracy in this in finals is so

0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:08.080
<v Speaker 1>important and it's a thing that can really determine games.

0:20:08.320 --> 0:20:12.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I think because GWS had that well, they

0:20:12.640 --> 0:20:15.520
<v Speaker 2>had the dominance throughout the whole game, but in particular,

0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:17.840
<v Speaker 2>there was that ten minute patch, five to ten minute

0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:21.640
<v Speaker 2>patch that ended the game. Essentially it was I think

0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:24.080
<v Speaker 2>they kicked five goals in ten minutes or something around that,

0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:26.320
<v Speaker 2>and then a whole bunch of points Like you were

0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:29.600
<v Speaker 2>saying that, Yeah, they could have really really done some

0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:35.840
<v Speaker 2>damn done some damage in that second quarter. The midfield

0:20:35.880 --> 0:20:40.560
<v Speaker 2>of port that everyone's been talking about, Butters, Rosie Horn

0:20:40.640 --> 0:20:44.959
<v Speaker 2>Francis kept pretty quiet. Butter's probably the only one like

0:20:45.160 --> 0:20:48.840
<v Speaker 2>as a standout. Rosie kept us seventeen on. Francis normally

0:20:48.880 --> 0:20:51.520
<v Speaker 2>doesn't get big numbers. He's normally more of a damage guy.

0:20:51.880 --> 0:20:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Both tried his heart out and there's been a bit

0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:58.280
<v Speaker 2>of talk about both, like how he's been treated towards

0:20:58.280 --> 0:21:01.000
<v Speaker 2>the end of the season and what he does from

0:21:01.000 --> 0:21:05.520
<v Speaker 2>here on with his career. But yeah, it was it

0:21:05.560 --> 0:21:08.120
<v Speaker 2>was a down performance for him for like this midfield

0:21:08.119 --> 0:21:11.640
<v Speaker 2>that we all tout, as you know, elite elite.

0:21:11.760 --> 0:21:13.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think there was one thing I noticed watching

0:21:13.960 --> 0:21:17.119
<v Speaker 1>the game was like, gw ass at any chance, impossible

0:21:17.160 --> 0:21:19.720
<v Speaker 1>moment was just getting the ball forward, and it seemed

0:21:19.720 --> 0:21:22.199
<v Speaker 1>like it just all the midfielders of like Port Adelaid

0:21:22.200 --> 0:21:24.640
<v Speaker 1>were just passing and JB just off to the races right,

0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:27.760
<v Speaker 1>and that just seemed like there's certain times where the

0:21:27.800 --> 0:21:29.840
<v Speaker 1>ball's going forward and You're going, how is there someone

0:21:30.280 --> 0:21:32.720
<v Speaker 1>in their forward line? There's no one even on them,

0:21:32.760 --> 0:21:34.240
<v Speaker 1>like they're just sitting there open, there's no one even

0:21:34.280 --> 0:21:37.119
<v Speaker 1>near them, Like there was one point I think whereeah,

0:21:37.160 --> 0:21:39.240
<v Speaker 1>there's like three people inside fifty and one defender, and

0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:42.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, how's this even happening? So their ability to

0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:44.560
<v Speaker 1>get it forward I think almost like shocked Port Adelaide,

0:21:44.560 --> 0:21:45.920
<v Speaker 1>and they were just on their back heel the whole

0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:48.199
<v Speaker 1>time and really tried to wrestle at momentum back and

0:21:48.280 --> 0:21:50.560
<v Speaker 1>just wasn't able to until probably the fourth quarter and

0:21:50.560 --> 0:21:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I started getting stuff on the board. But one person

0:21:52.640 --> 0:21:54.560
<v Speaker 1>that was able to kind of get them or keep

0:21:54.600 --> 0:21:56.800
<v Speaker 1>them in the game somewhat was really really like he

0:21:56.920 --> 0:21:59.160
<v Speaker 1>kicked three esre on the game, and he was the

0:21:59.200 --> 0:22:01.920
<v Speaker 1>only one that even looked remotely close to doing anything

0:22:02.359 --> 0:22:04.560
<v Speaker 1>for Port Adelaide in that first quarter, and I was thinking,

0:22:05.200 --> 0:22:07.880
<v Speaker 1>this guy's just hanging on, hanging on by a threat,

0:22:07.880 --> 0:22:09.920
<v Speaker 1>and this man is doing everything you can as possible

0:22:10.160 --> 0:22:12.200
<v Speaker 1>to be able to try to keep them in the race.

0:22:12.400 --> 0:22:15.760
<v Speaker 2>And he's obviously all fellas Team of the Year.

0:22:17.840 --> 0:22:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Hashtag to never forget.

0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Kenny did say post game that he probably had to

0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:26.560
<v Speaker 2>take more risk with team selection than you'd like to

0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:30.280
<v Speaker 2>heading into that one, saying that what was it there

0:22:30.320 --> 0:22:32.919
<v Speaker 2>was younger players that are still too young to be

0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:35.760
<v Speaker 2>playing AFL, So as bad as it was, it could

0:22:35.800 --> 0:22:37.880
<v Speaker 2>have been a hell of a lot worse if they

0:22:37.880 --> 0:22:42.600
<v Speaker 2>didn't run with the injured players. It's interesting statement, but

0:22:43.560 --> 0:22:46.200
<v Speaker 2>looking out there on the field, I think Trent McKenzie,

0:22:46.320 --> 0:22:49.440
<v Speaker 2>probably one of the more obvious ones hurt his knee

0:22:49.520 --> 0:22:53.800
<v Speaker 2>last week, had to play on Jesse Hogan, and Jesse

0:22:53.960 --> 0:22:55.439
<v Speaker 2>Hogan just dominated.

0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think it's one of those things. I guess

0:22:57.640 --> 0:23:00.440
<v Speaker 1>you get two finals, right, would you play someone who's

0:23:00.440 --> 0:23:02.880
<v Speaker 1>an injured but experienced player or would you someone play

0:23:02.920 --> 0:23:06.720
<v Speaker 1>someone who's inexperienced in a finals game under the bright lights?

0:23:07.240 --> 0:23:10.359
<v Speaker 1>And then you know not as probably you know is

0:23:10.440 --> 0:23:12.080
<v Speaker 1>very young in their career, Like it's a it's a

0:23:12.160 --> 0:23:13.800
<v Speaker 1>question a lot of coaches have to make, but I

0:23:13.840 --> 0:23:15.240
<v Speaker 1>think a lot of them would probably are on the

0:23:15.240 --> 0:23:17.480
<v Speaker 1>side of the experience to be able to get them

0:23:17.480 --> 0:23:20.080
<v Speaker 1>over the line. Then someone who's a bit younger, maybe

0:23:20.080 --> 0:23:21.560
<v Speaker 1>in the first or second year, to come in and

0:23:21.760 --> 0:23:24.600
<v Speaker 1>try to play a finals without much time ever doing

0:23:24.640 --> 0:23:25.119
<v Speaker 1>that before.

0:23:25.359 --> 0:23:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you've got to trust in, like put your

0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:31.480
<v Speaker 2>trust into those senior players as well to make the call.

0:23:31.680 --> 0:23:36.040
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, it's it's an interesting one and another off

0:23:36.080 --> 0:23:37.280
<v Speaker 2>season for Port Adelaide.

0:23:37.320 --> 0:23:39.480
<v Speaker 1>And I want to go back to this one part

0:23:39.480 --> 0:23:41.600
<v Speaker 1>of this game, the Butter's chair throw.

0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:43.840
<v Speaker 2>It got a lot of attention.

0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:47.760
<v Speaker 1>It was wild. It reminded me of a famous college

0:23:48.200 --> 0:23:51.119
<v Speaker 1>basketball coach who picked up a chair and threw it

0:23:51.200 --> 0:23:53.840
<v Speaker 1>onto the court. This is this is a true story

0:23:53.880 --> 0:23:55.399
<v Speaker 1>through onto the court in the middle of a game

0:23:55.440 --> 0:23:58.719
<v Speaker 1>because she was upset with an umpire's call. Probably not

0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:01.800
<v Speaker 1>to that extent, but it was wild seeing it live.

0:24:02.200 --> 0:24:05.359
<v Speaker 1>The whole thing play out, Like I don't know, like

0:24:05.480 --> 0:24:08.720
<v Speaker 1>if an umpire can give extra time for furniture moving

0:24:08.760 --> 0:24:10.920
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of a game, yeah or not? Like

0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:12.679
<v Speaker 1>the way you went about it was kind of disrespectful,

0:24:12.720 --> 0:24:14.920
<v Speaker 1>going me wrong, but like that's you know, I guess

0:24:14.960 --> 0:24:18.359
<v Speaker 1>the heat of the moment somewhat. But also like they

0:24:18.400 --> 0:24:21.360
<v Speaker 1>didn't hitting an extra time, you know, for that scenario

0:24:21.359 --> 0:24:23.240
<v Speaker 1>of you know, them being somewhat in the way of

0:24:23.280 --> 0:24:25.480
<v Speaker 1>I guess, like straight lines to the goals. So yeah,

0:24:25.560 --> 0:24:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. It's like one of those things I

0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:29.119
<v Speaker 1>was thinking about earlier. I was like, well, should umpires

0:24:29.119 --> 0:24:31.200
<v Speaker 1>be able to give like five or six seconds extra

0:24:31.359 --> 0:24:33.400
<v Speaker 1>for them to be able to, you know, be able

0:24:33.400 --> 0:24:35.760
<v Speaker 1>to at least organize their shot in the best way possible.

0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:39.320
<v Speaker 2>Obviously it's not a good look from like butters, but

0:24:39.880 --> 0:24:42.440
<v Speaker 2>he's moving the chairs out of the way, throwing the chairs,

0:24:42.480 --> 0:24:45.480
<v Speaker 2>and then he turns around the umpires like like move

0:24:45.520 --> 0:24:49.800
<v Speaker 2>it on. I was, mate, I'm busy, like rearranging fucking

0:24:49.840 --> 0:24:53.280
<v Speaker 2>Ikea down here, like we can all do better in

0:24:53.320 --> 0:24:56.719
<v Speaker 2>this situation. Umpire says, hey, let's take a quick pause,

0:24:57.200 --> 0:24:59.679
<v Speaker 2>excuse me, Can you just move out of the way please,

0:25:00.000 --> 0:25:01.800
<v Speaker 2>because he's trying to take a shot at gold it's

0:25:01.840 --> 0:25:03.960
<v Speaker 2>really important to him and his team in the finals

0:25:04.000 --> 0:25:06.800
<v Speaker 2>in the AFL, big deal, All right, can we just

0:25:06.840 --> 0:25:10.760
<v Speaker 2>move those chairs? Thanks? Okay, thanks, all right, you're ready,

0:25:11.040 --> 0:25:14.560
<v Speaker 2>all right? Time on, move it on. Yeah, it's pretty

0:25:14.680 --> 0:25:16.919
<v Speaker 2>like I think it was just a communication thing on

0:25:17.040 --> 0:25:18.040
<v Speaker 2>everyone's behalf.

0:25:18.119 --> 0:25:20.920
<v Speaker 1>The chair throw didn't look too great from his perspective,

0:25:20.920 --> 0:25:22.320
<v Speaker 1>Like you said, I think if he had his time again,

0:25:22.359 --> 0:25:25.399
<v Speaker 1>he'd probably go back and do it differently. But I

0:25:25.400 --> 0:25:27.080
<v Speaker 1>think there's a better way for the AFL to handle

0:25:27.080 --> 0:25:29.800
<v Speaker 1>the situation. It's happened before. I remember whenever we played.

0:25:29.840 --> 0:25:32.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it was Richmond and Brody Grundy kicked the

0:25:32.000 --> 0:25:34.399
<v Speaker 1>one right at the siren and Darcy Moore went back

0:25:34.440 --> 0:25:35.879
<v Speaker 1>and someone was in the way too, and he like

0:25:35.920 --> 0:25:37.720
<v Speaker 1>moved the chair also, and it was one of those

0:25:37.720 --> 0:25:40.199
<v Speaker 1>things where like you feel like you should get a

0:25:40.200 --> 0:25:42.040
<v Speaker 1>ton of extra time, but like five or six seconds

0:25:42.080 --> 0:25:43.919
<v Speaker 1>extra or like him to go if you can go

0:25:43.960 --> 0:25:46.199
<v Speaker 1>back and move that, okay, start now, time back on

0:25:46.680 --> 0:25:48.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of thing. So I was looking at I think

0:25:48.680 --> 0:25:50.760
<v Speaker 1>there's got to be room for improvement here. But did

0:25:50.760 --> 0:25:53.159
<v Speaker 1>it pan out the way it probably should have and

0:25:53.240 --> 0:25:56.159
<v Speaker 1>did it look great from a visual perspective. No, but

0:25:56.840 --> 0:25:58.560
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's an RFI for the AFL.

0:25:58.640 --> 0:26:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. My point about like social media commentary around it

0:26:03.200 --> 0:26:07.359
<v Speaker 2>is it's like so hypocritical to be like, oh, you

0:26:07.400 --> 0:26:10.080
<v Speaker 2>need to show empathy and you need to be in

0:26:10.280 --> 0:26:13.280
<v Speaker 2>control of your emotions towards this like water person that's

0:26:13.359 --> 0:26:15.960
<v Speaker 2>just doing their job and then just go to town

0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:19.760
<v Speaker 2>on Zach Butter's like, yeah, I don't get people.

0:26:19.560 --> 0:26:21.600
<v Speaker 1>But the culture thing I think has probably been yeah,

0:26:21.800 --> 0:26:24.439
<v Speaker 1>and we'll move on to joby. I decided, thank Stephen

0:26:24.480 --> 0:26:27.920
<v Speaker 1>Kinigli are thirty touches at twenty two touches by halftime

0:26:28.000 --> 0:26:29.879
<v Speaker 1>and also had two goals, like he was one of

0:26:29.920 --> 0:26:33.639
<v Speaker 1>their star players. He is one of the turnaround stories.

0:26:33.680 --> 0:26:35.200
<v Speaker 1>I feel like over the last two or three years,

0:26:35.240 --> 0:26:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I think we all you know, heard the stories of

0:26:37.119 --> 0:26:41.240
<v Speaker 1>him during that Amazon Prime you know documentary that he

0:26:41.320 --> 0:26:43.159
<v Speaker 1>did and some of the struggles he was going through then,

0:26:43.200 --> 0:26:44.720
<v Speaker 1>and then for him now to be playing at the

0:26:44.800 --> 0:26:46.560
<v Speaker 1>level he is and be such an important carg in

0:26:46.600 --> 0:26:51.000
<v Speaker 1>that machine pun there you go? Is it a credit

0:26:51.000 --> 0:26:52.920
<v Speaker 1>to him? It is a very hard thing to do,

0:26:53.000 --> 0:26:56.640
<v Speaker 1>and it's a credit to his you know, his ability

0:26:56.680 --> 0:26:58.240
<v Speaker 1>to kind of work through those hard times to be

0:26:58.240 --> 0:26:59.679
<v Speaker 1>able to come out the other side. So it is

0:27:00.160 --> 0:27:02.439
<v Speaker 1>not easy, but it's great to see him, you know,

0:27:02.520 --> 0:27:04.879
<v Speaker 1>being able to be positive and making an impact for

0:27:04.880 --> 0:27:05.280
<v Speaker 1>his club.

0:27:05.440 --> 0:27:08.360
<v Speaker 2>You're making it sound like you know from experience how

0:27:08.400 --> 0:27:11.800
<v Speaker 2>to like turn turning a form slump around. This is

0:27:11.840 --> 0:27:13.159
<v Speaker 2>great because I didn't have to bring it up.

0:27:13.240 --> 0:27:15.240
<v Speaker 1>You were the one that was a few times. I've

0:27:15.240 --> 0:27:17.040
<v Speaker 1>gone to the fl and a few games.

0:27:17.119 --> 0:27:19.840
<v Speaker 2>So you say it is hard. How hard is it?

0:27:19.920 --> 0:27:21.719
<v Speaker 2>What do you do? How do you get out of

0:27:22.000 --> 0:27:24.760
<v Speaker 2>a poor form slump or how do you work your

0:27:25.040 --> 0:27:26.120
<v Speaker 2>way back into form?

0:27:26.680 --> 0:27:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Ah, there's multiple things. I think, Like you just get

0:27:29.080 --> 0:27:30.919
<v Speaker 1>back to the basics. You kind of go back to

0:27:31.200 --> 0:27:33.720
<v Speaker 1>what you're good at, gaining a bit of confidence in that.

0:27:33.760 --> 0:27:35.679
<v Speaker 1>Obviously playing at a lower level, like you get more

0:27:35.720 --> 0:27:38.040
<v Speaker 1>opportunities to you know, play a bit more rock, you're

0:27:38.040 --> 0:27:40.160
<v Speaker 1>playing a bit more forward to get more aerial contact

0:27:40.240 --> 0:27:43.880
<v Speaker 1>or aerial contests or whoever it may be. But yeah,

0:27:43.920 --> 0:27:45.840
<v Speaker 1>I think a lot of it. Sometimes you just it's

0:27:45.880 --> 0:27:48.359
<v Speaker 1>like anything, like we're all human beings. Sometimes we can

0:27:48.440 --> 0:27:50.040
<v Speaker 1>have a bit of a you know, our mental health

0:27:50.119 --> 0:27:51.440
<v Speaker 1>isn't great at the time. It may be and that

0:27:51.480 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 1>might affect our football, and you know, at the time,

0:27:54.359 --> 0:27:55.919
<v Speaker 1>you just got to try to find things that you

0:27:55.960 --> 0:27:58.439
<v Speaker 1>know make you happy in life and fill your cup up,

0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:00.520
<v Speaker 1>as I say, and then that kind of you know,

0:28:00.560 --> 0:28:02.840
<v Speaker 1>bleeds into your work life and then bleeds into your

0:28:02.840 --> 0:28:05.000
<v Speaker 1>football hopefully and can turn things around. But yeah, it's

0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:07.560
<v Speaker 1>it's not easy. Like sometimes coaches lose faith in you

0:28:07.640 --> 0:28:08.800
<v Speaker 1>and they don't want to play you, and then they

0:28:08.800 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 1>looked to elsewhere. And I mean, like whenever I look

0:28:11.320 --> 0:28:14.240
<v Speaker 1>back to Brody Grundy and Darcy Cameron, like there's a

0:28:14.240 --> 0:28:16.080
<v Speaker 1>point where I got moved out of that rock position

0:28:16.119 --> 0:28:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and Darcy Cameron was chosen over me, and that was

0:28:18.080 --> 0:28:19.879
<v Speaker 1>just like part of the process. I think it was

0:28:20.280 --> 0:28:23.080
<v Speaker 1>maybe Nathan Buckley in the COVID times whenever that happened,

0:28:23.080 --> 0:28:24.080
<v Speaker 1>and that was one of those things. It was a

0:28:24.119 --> 0:28:25.880
<v Speaker 1>bit of a shot to your ego and your confidence

0:28:25.880 --> 0:28:29.479
<v Speaker 1>and everything else obviously whenever that happens. But yeah, I mean,

0:28:29.520 --> 0:28:32.480
<v Speaker 1>obviously things panned out differently and I was fortunate enough

0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:34.480
<v Speaker 1>to still be in the team. But yeah, there's definitely

0:28:34.480 --> 0:28:36.520
<v Speaker 1>those dark moments you go to and you got to

0:28:36.560 --> 0:28:37.760
<v Speaker 1>try to find a way to come out of them.

0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:39.520
<v Speaker 1>And a lot of times you rely on your friends

0:28:39.520 --> 0:28:41.760
<v Speaker 1>and family and that close kind of grow close knit

0:28:41.800 --> 0:28:44.960
<v Speaker 1>kind of group you have, and yeah, sometimes they take

0:28:45.000 --> 0:28:47.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of negativity from you. But they're the people

0:28:47.640 --> 0:28:49.240
<v Speaker 1>are always in your corner no matter what. That's kind

0:28:49.240 --> 0:28:50.760
<v Speaker 1>of one of the most important things. I think whenever

0:28:50.800 --> 0:28:52.160
<v Speaker 1>that does happen, well.

0:28:52.000 --> 0:28:56.080
<v Speaker 2>It's always good to say it turn around. Steven Kennelio. Yeah,

0:28:56.120 --> 0:28:58.360
<v Speaker 2>it was a I don't know if if you'd describe

0:28:58.360 --> 0:29:01.240
<v Speaker 2>it as a rough ducker, it was. It's great to

0:29:01.240 --> 0:29:04.400
<v Speaker 2>see him bounce back. Thirty touches twenty two in the

0:29:04.400 --> 0:29:09.680
<v Speaker 2>first half is insane. Two goals, great goals too, Jesse Hogan,

0:29:09.960 --> 0:29:13.080
<v Speaker 2>Toby Green. It's going to be hard to shut down

0:29:13.120 --> 0:29:15.920
<v Speaker 2>these guys. Four goals for three goals two between them

0:29:16.640 --> 0:29:19.240
<v Speaker 2>so combined for seven to six. So at least there's

0:29:19.240 --> 0:29:24.080
<v Speaker 2>a bit of inaccuracy there. This one's the most important

0:29:24.440 --> 0:29:29.120
<v Speaker 2>selection for GWS. They've got Kieren Briggs who hurt his

0:29:29.200 --> 0:29:31.360
<v Speaker 2>shoulder in the game on the weekend.

0:29:31.760 --> 0:29:34.960
<v Speaker 1>He come back in and play. He s off the game. Yeah,

0:29:35.200 --> 0:29:36.360
<v Speaker 1>you probably know better than me.

0:29:36.680 --> 0:29:39.520
<v Speaker 2>These shoulder things, they get worse over time, Like we

0:29:39.960 --> 0:29:44.320
<v Speaker 2>talked about Doc earlier in the podcast. Yeah, dislocated shoulder

0:29:44.320 --> 0:29:46.960
<v Speaker 2>and pops back in and can go back out there.

0:29:47.280 --> 0:29:49.720
<v Speaker 2>Is it is that sh Is that going to be painful?

0:29:49.880 --> 0:29:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Fucking hurts. There's no doubt about that. There's probably a

0:29:53.320 --> 0:29:56.160
<v Speaker 1>few needles involved and a few kind of numbing agents

0:29:56.160 --> 0:29:58.560
<v Speaker 1>and stuff like that. But you look at Doc will

0:29:58.560 --> 0:30:01.040
<v Speaker 1>probably play this week again after just locating his shoulder,

0:30:01.080 --> 0:30:02.760
<v Speaker 1>and he'll just have it heavily strapped. So I think

0:30:02.760 --> 0:30:06.760
<v Speaker 1>there's there's definitely. I mean, I'll plan to say that

0:30:06.760 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Brin Briggs will play on the weekend. That's the way

0:30:08.600 --> 0:30:12.280
<v Speaker 1>we'll plan it. But yeah, obviously everyone's pretty switched on

0:30:12.360 --> 0:30:13.640
<v Speaker 1>as far as injuries and stuff like that. But I

0:30:13.680 --> 0:30:16.160
<v Speaker 1>think whenever you get to this time of year, adrenaline

0:30:16.200 --> 0:30:19.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of kicks in. Injuries don't matter as much. So yeah,

0:30:19.480 --> 0:30:21.560
<v Speaker 1>obviously he had a little bit of a shoulder thing

0:30:21.600 --> 0:30:23.200
<v Speaker 1>over the weekend, but the fact that he came back

0:30:23.200 --> 0:30:25.920
<v Speaker 1>on employed shows that he's still able to so I

0:30:25.920 --> 0:30:27.840
<v Speaker 1>think he'll should be able to get up for the weekend.

0:30:28.240 --> 0:30:31.040
<v Speaker 2>It's just another little thing that adds to the story.

0:30:31.200 --> 0:30:33.480
<v Speaker 2>It's pretty hard to tap when you've got those shoulders,

0:30:34.320 --> 0:30:37.560
<v Speaker 2>but we'll see how it all plays out. He was

0:30:37.600 --> 0:30:43.080
<v Speaker 2>still winning Rock. He's had a big final series now,

0:30:43.160 --> 0:30:47.080
<v Speaker 2>something that people are kind of sucking about. I'll describe

0:30:47.080 --> 0:30:50.320
<v Speaker 2>it as sucking is GWS is six day break coming

0:30:50.360 --> 0:30:56.520
<v Speaker 2>off this win. Now argument would be that it's meant

0:30:56.560 --> 0:30:58.840
<v Speaker 2>to be the advantage goes to the team that finished

0:30:58.880 --> 0:31:01.520
<v Speaker 2>on top, and it's meant to be harder for the

0:31:01.560 --> 0:31:04.160
<v Speaker 2>teams that finish below them. And that's how it works.

0:31:04.440 --> 0:31:07.920
<v Speaker 2>Next this prelm, whoever wins these prelims will get an

0:31:07.960 --> 0:31:11.080
<v Speaker 2>extra day's break going into the Grand Final. That's how

0:31:11.120 --> 0:31:14.200
<v Speaker 2>it works because that's the advantage you get finishing up

0:31:14.200 --> 0:31:19.680
<v Speaker 2>the ladder. Mace. So saying that you've had a lot

0:31:19.680 --> 0:31:22.400
<v Speaker 2>of time, You've had a lot of breaks, a lot

0:31:22.400 --> 0:31:25.600
<v Speaker 2>of time to recovery. What's the way up between the

0:31:25.640 --> 0:31:28.680
<v Speaker 2>old classic, Oh, you haven't played a lot of footy

0:31:28.720 --> 0:31:31.560
<v Speaker 2>in a three week span of time compared to like

0:31:32.400 --> 0:31:35.880
<v Speaker 2>these guys have been four games in a row. This

0:31:35.920 --> 0:31:38.240
<v Speaker 2>will be on the road and coming off a six

0:31:38.320 --> 0:31:38.880
<v Speaker 2>day break.

0:31:39.400 --> 0:31:41.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think the six day break is interesting. Like,

0:31:41.400 --> 0:31:46.160
<v Speaker 1>I found it amazing that the schedule wasn't sorted beforehand,

0:31:46.160 --> 0:31:49.000
<v Speaker 1>like we found out essentially Sunday or Saturday night. I

0:31:49.000 --> 0:31:51.680
<v Speaker 1>guess after the game that we were locked in for Friday,

0:31:51.720 --> 0:31:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Like it was still a question, Mike, we weren't able

0:31:53.240 --> 0:31:56.040
<v Speaker 1>to actually give our schedule out until the weekend because

0:31:56.520 --> 0:31:59.640
<v Speaker 1>you think that these things were planned geez back in

0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:02.719
<v Speaker 1>like March, Like, it's pretty wild to think that, like

0:32:03.000 --> 0:32:05.000
<v Speaker 1>we're figuring out what day we're going to play the

0:32:05.040 --> 0:32:08.200
<v Speaker 1>week of. But I understand there is venues and everything

0:32:08.200 --> 0:32:09.640
<v Speaker 1>else that comes with it. That probably is a bit

0:32:09.640 --> 0:32:13.360
<v Speaker 1>of you know, having to reserve things and whatnot. But yeah,

0:32:13.360 --> 0:32:15.840
<v Speaker 1>the six day break thing, like the question mark I

0:32:15.840 --> 0:32:19.560
<v Speaker 1>think was around I guess the competitive nature of it,

0:32:19.640 --> 0:32:22.280
<v Speaker 1>whether or not it's fair. Yeah, like you said, whenever

0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:24.840
<v Speaker 1>you finish first, there is benefits you get to finishing first,

0:32:24.840 --> 0:32:28.200
<v Speaker 1>whether it be a double chance or this. And that's

0:32:28.240 --> 0:32:30.280
<v Speaker 1>just kind of the scenario because AFL is not gonna

0:32:30.280 --> 0:32:32.640
<v Speaker 1>play two games on a Saturday. Yeah, they're gonna play

0:32:32.680 --> 0:32:34.720
<v Speaker 1>two primetime games, so one of the teams is gonna

0:32:34.720 --> 0:32:37.400
<v Speaker 1>get screwed. And that's just like, that's just the fact

0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:39.560
<v Speaker 1>of the matter. If we were playing in non prime

0:32:39.600 --> 0:32:41.520
<v Speaker 1>time games and we want to just you know, play

0:32:41.520 --> 0:32:43.160
<v Speaker 1>it all at once, all on Saturday, I'm sure we

0:32:43.200 --> 0:32:45.360
<v Speaker 1>probably would. But there's too much money in the games

0:32:45.360 --> 0:32:47.000
<v Speaker 1>to not be playing a Friday night game and a

0:32:47.040 --> 0:32:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Saturday night game. And that's just kind of Heart and

0:32:49.880 --> 0:32:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Parcel with the AFL.

0:32:51.400 --> 0:32:52.280
<v Speaker 2>Makes sense, doesn't it.

0:32:52.360 --> 0:32:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you can't, Like you're gonna tell me they're gonna

0:32:54.440 --> 0:32:56.800
<v Speaker 1>play an afternoon game at twelve o'clock on a Saturday, Like, no, no,

0:32:56.880 --> 0:33:00.920
<v Speaker 1>damn chance, they can play two night games, which, let's

0:33:00.960 --> 0:33:02.760
<v Speaker 1>be honest, this is a Grand Final. Maybe you should

0:33:03.160 --> 0:33:06.280
<v Speaker 1>probably fall in line with that. But we continue to

0:33:06.320 --> 0:33:08.240
<v Speaker 1>talk about that, and they'll continue to be a talking point,

0:33:08.320 --> 0:33:12.040
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, there's money to be made by being in primetime.

0:33:12.080 --> 0:33:14.560
<v Speaker 1>Therefore it will forever be in primetime. Unfortunately for one

0:33:14.560 --> 0:33:15.800
<v Speaker 1>of the teams, that just means they're gonna have a

0:33:15.800 --> 0:33:16.360
<v Speaker 1>shorter break.

0:33:16.640 --> 0:33:19.760
<v Speaker 2>One main reason why you wouldn't play it in the

0:33:19.800 --> 0:33:22.960
<v Speaker 2>middle of the day, as we move into other news,

0:33:23.040 --> 0:33:26.200
<v Speaker 2>is because there might be snakes on the field.

0:33:26.320 --> 0:33:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Mace, a snake in my boots.

0:33:28.960 --> 0:33:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Killer snakes. Finally you got something to send back to

0:33:32.120 --> 0:33:35.240
<v Speaker 2>the family and friends in America, going, geez, we got

0:33:35.240 --> 0:33:36.840
<v Speaker 2>another snake out here on the field.

0:33:37.880 --> 0:33:40.920
<v Speaker 1>I thought this whenever I read the headline. I was like, Oh,

0:33:41.000 --> 0:33:43.800
<v Speaker 1>this thing must be a two three meter long snake.

0:33:43.880 --> 0:33:46.239
<v Speaker 1>This would be massive. They would have been seeing this

0:33:46.280 --> 0:33:49.479
<v Speaker 1>from ages or I see the video. It's like literally,

0:33:49.480 --> 0:33:54.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty centimeters is nothing. It was so small it was deadly.

0:33:54.320 --> 0:33:55.959
<v Speaker 1>I must say that, So it is important to get

0:33:56.000 --> 0:33:58.200
<v Speaker 1>the snake off the field. But my picture of it

0:33:58.280 --> 0:34:00.880
<v Speaker 1>was very different from what was the actual all image

0:34:00.880 --> 0:34:02.480
<v Speaker 1>of it and whenever it came to the game. But

0:34:02.840 --> 0:34:05.840
<v Speaker 1>they did have to delay the nfl W game between

0:34:06.520 --> 0:34:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Richmond and j WS out at Blacktown because there was

0:34:10.160 --> 0:34:12.600
<v Speaker 1>a deadly snake on the field. So that is the

0:34:12.600 --> 0:34:14.799
<v Speaker 1>most Australian shit you will hear this week.

0:34:14.880 --> 0:34:17.360
<v Speaker 2>So it's not about the size, it's about how deadly

0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:17.759
<v Speaker 2>it is.

0:34:18.040 --> 0:34:19.839
<v Speaker 1>Can just give a shout out to Gandalf. They picked

0:34:19.840 --> 0:34:21.520
<v Speaker 1>it up. I don't know if you've seen that guy

0:34:21.960 --> 0:34:23.120
<v Speaker 1>beard of a goddess.

0:34:23.520 --> 0:34:27.120
<v Speaker 2>He looked like a snake handler.

0:34:27.280 --> 0:34:30.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was like literally who I would picture if

0:34:30.320 --> 0:34:32.239
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I need to bring up all Jake,

0:34:32.320 --> 0:34:33.320
<v Speaker 1>the snake candler.

0:34:33.760 --> 0:34:35.680
<v Speaker 2>If he was walked through the gate, You're like, oh,

0:34:35.680 --> 0:34:36.640
<v Speaker 2>the snake handle is here.

0:34:36.760 --> 0:34:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:34:38.760 --> 0:34:41.239
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't say that you're right all the time. I

0:34:41.239 --> 0:34:43.520
<v Speaker 2>would probably say that you're wrong most of the most time.

0:34:43.800 --> 0:34:47.359
<v Speaker 2>But you are correct about the Gold Coast Sons because they.

0:34:47.040 --> 0:34:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Boys we bag that.

0:34:48.640 --> 0:34:52.280
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Gold Coast Sons have made the Grand Final.

0:34:52.719 --> 0:34:55.319
<v Speaker 1>You just just like I planned, Brandon, I knew it

0:34:55.360 --> 0:34:58.480
<v Speaker 1>from the start, been on this bandwagon for a long time.

0:34:58.680 --> 0:35:01.760
<v Speaker 2>You just picked the wrong lead the VFL.

0:35:01.960 --> 0:35:03.480
<v Speaker 1>We never got into the details.

0:35:03.600 --> 0:35:06.480
<v Speaker 2>Gold Coast have made the Grand Final of the VFL,

0:35:06.520 --> 0:35:09.319
<v Speaker 2>which is big for him. That's massive. It shows that

0:35:09.440 --> 0:35:12.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, there's some talent coming through. Maybe your child

0:35:12.239 --> 0:35:13.239
<v Speaker 2>took a hanger.

0:35:13.040 --> 0:35:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Hangar of hangers. Oh my gosh, it was elite.

0:35:15.960 --> 0:35:17.799
<v Speaker 2>So you're backing them into it and get the dub

0:35:17.840 --> 0:35:18.680
<v Speaker 2>in the Grand Final.

0:35:18.760 --> 0:35:20.359
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea they're playing, but they're gonna get

0:35:20.400 --> 0:35:22.799
<v Speaker 1>the dub. You're going to murder them. Choll's just going

0:35:22.880 --> 0:35:25.240
<v Speaker 1>to get easier to go. He's gonna go to the moon.

0:35:25.560 --> 0:35:29.000
<v Speaker 1>As we would say, big love for Chol two, absolute

0:35:29.080 --> 0:35:31.279
<v Speaker 1>legend and but yeah, no, it's great to see him

0:35:31.280 --> 0:35:33.160
<v Speaker 1>in the Grand final. Shows that they're you know, I've

0:35:33.160 --> 0:35:35.200
<v Speaker 1>got a few guys coming through in the younger leagues

0:35:35.200 --> 0:35:37.879
<v Speaker 1>that are you know, helping them be successful. And I think,

0:35:37.960 --> 0:35:40.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, like I said, next year finals and while

0:35:40.560 --> 0:35:43.040
<v Speaker 1>we're it's not just in the VFL, Brandon, let me just.

0:35:44.560 --> 0:35:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, not the AFL W or maybe they can get

0:35:47.120 --> 0:35:49.799
<v Speaker 2>that that what's the medal when all your teams are

0:35:49.840 --> 0:35:52.040
<v Speaker 2>good at the same time. Talked about it last.

0:35:51.920 --> 0:35:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Week, but no the whole Yeah, they get like a

0:35:53.920 --> 0:35:56.320
<v Speaker 1>million bucks or something like that. I'm not really too sure.

0:35:56.320 --> 0:35:58.320
<v Speaker 2>That'll be good when you when you're pocketing a million

0:35:58.320 --> 0:36:01.840
<v Speaker 2>bucks this year of IT and Harry Sheezel one of

0:36:01.840 --> 0:36:03.240
<v Speaker 2>the best Farris for norm.

0:36:03.200 --> 0:36:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Yes, pretty good fit. It's pretty good. First year, not bad.

0:36:06.840 --> 0:36:09.239
<v Speaker 1>Second year, sorry second year, second year winning IT B

0:36:09.280 --> 0:36:10.600
<v Speaker 1>and F. I'm not sure if he gets a big

0:36:10.600 --> 0:36:15.160
<v Speaker 1>bonus or not, but let's just say maybe him and

0:36:15.200 --> 0:36:16.719
<v Speaker 1>his family and his mom were going to Bali again.

0:36:16.760 --> 0:36:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Who knows. Yeah, that's it tatos on here, But no

0:36:21.840 --> 0:36:25.680
<v Speaker 1>credit to Harry. An incredible accomplishment and he's going to

0:36:25.680 --> 0:36:27.520
<v Speaker 1>be an absolute gun for that team for a long time.

0:36:27.560 --> 0:36:29.359
<v Speaker 1>So it's a little shout out to Harry for winning

0:36:29.360 --> 0:36:31.480
<v Speaker 1>the B and F over there. It's quite something he

0:36:31.480 --> 0:36:32.680
<v Speaker 1>should be extremely proud of.

0:36:32.840 --> 0:36:36.200
<v Speaker 2>That's enough flapping the gums about other crap that happened

0:36:36.200 --> 0:36:41.480
<v Speaker 2>outside of finals. Let's jump in to this week's preliminary finals.

0:36:42.000 --> 0:36:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Brisbane versus Carlton.

0:36:44.120 --> 0:36:45.800
<v Speaker 1>At the Gabba at the Fortress.

0:36:46.160 --> 0:36:50.040
<v Speaker 2>Last time these two teams met was at Marvel Stadium,

0:36:50.080 --> 0:36:53.239
<v Speaker 2>not as much a fortress. Brisbane still won twenty six

0:36:53.280 --> 0:36:58.640
<v Speaker 2>points and Charlie and Zach Bailey four goals each. Harry

0:36:58.680 --> 0:37:02.480
<v Speaker 2>and Charlie one guy. That's not as many goals, so

0:37:02.680 --> 0:37:06.680
<v Speaker 2>that's probably why they lost. Carlton banged up going into

0:37:06.680 --> 0:37:09.719
<v Speaker 2>this one. They got Duc's shoulder. Obviously, Crip's still going

0:37:09.800 --> 0:37:10.800
<v Speaker 2>with that reb injury.

0:37:10.800 --> 0:37:13.400
<v Speaker 1>And the thing is like, that's almost like, you know,

0:37:13.440 --> 0:37:16.200
<v Speaker 1>whenever they had the jousting back in the medieval times,

0:37:16.440 --> 0:37:16.640
<v Speaker 1>like that.

0:37:17.160 --> 0:37:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Couch around him wild and he copped that, you know,

0:37:20.160 --> 0:37:21.920
<v Speaker 2>the hit to the mush that saw him go off

0:37:21.920 --> 0:37:22.560
<v Speaker 2>for a little bit.

0:37:22.560 --> 0:37:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Bleeding from every Orfice. In his post game show interview,

0:37:25.360 --> 0:37:25.960
<v Speaker 1>it was wild.

0:37:26.239 --> 0:37:30.160
<v Speaker 2>That's not good. And then obviously Aker's shoulder. But he'll

0:37:30.239 --> 0:37:34.120
<v Speaker 2>just keep plugging away. But they have got some players

0:37:34.120 --> 0:37:37.200
<v Speaker 2>to come back in, which makes things a little spicy

0:37:37.200 --> 0:37:40.319
<v Speaker 2>because they've got Harry MacKaye to come back in Jack

0:37:40.400 --> 0:37:44.520
<v Speaker 2>Martin both available. Harry was out with concussion, Jack Martin

0:37:44.600 --> 0:37:47.800
<v Speaker 2>was out with being stupid, big punch to the face,

0:37:47.880 --> 0:37:51.799
<v Speaker 2>So he's back in. I don't know who comes out.

0:37:52.080 --> 0:37:54.920
<v Speaker 2>There's gonna be some unlucky players coming out of this one.

0:37:55.080 --> 0:37:57.200
<v Speaker 2>You never want to get dropped for a final, let

0:37:57.200 --> 0:37:59.520
<v Speaker 2>alone a pre limb, let alone a Grand final. So

0:38:00.160 --> 0:38:02.879
<v Speaker 2>it's going to be very interesting coming into this one.

0:38:02.880 --> 0:38:05.200
<v Speaker 2>We've got some key matchups. Who do you see there?

0:38:06.000 --> 0:38:08.719
<v Speaker 1>I've got the two Charlie's going at it, big fan

0:38:09.080 --> 0:38:13.200
<v Speaker 1>of the old motorbike Charlie, and obviously you've got the

0:38:13.239 --> 0:38:17.000
<v Speaker 1>other Charlie at the other end, King Charles yep. And

0:38:17.040 --> 0:38:21.320
<v Speaker 1>then we've got what's what's his? Uh? What's Charlie Cameron's shark?

0:38:21.320 --> 0:38:25.640
<v Speaker 1>Did No? That's country Country road? Yes, and who knows,

0:38:25.640 --> 0:38:27.600
<v Speaker 1>maybe they'll be able to finish a whole song this

0:38:27.719 --> 0:38:30.600
<v Speaker 1>time before he kicks another golf Not too sure.

0:38:30.960 --> 0:38:32.920
<v Speaker 2>Six girls back to back to back.

0:38:32.840 --> 0:38:35.839
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, between them two that I'm expecting. Let's

0:38:35.840 --> 0:38:40.280
<v Speaker 1>go eight goals between the three. I'll expect eight goals. Yeah,

0:38:40.320 --> 0:38:43.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's going to be I'll go Charlie Cameron kicks more.

0:38:44.400 --> 0:38:47.879
<v Speaker 1>I think he's he's primed for a big, big he's

0:38:47.880 --> 0:38:51.280
<v Speaker 1>just always the prime time at the gabba. A big

0:38:51.280 --> 0:38:53.600
<v Speaker 1>fan of him. But he's gonna I think those two

0:38:53.600 --> 0:38:55.959
<v Speaker 1>are going to be awesome to watch. Obviously, two gun

0:38:56.000 --> 0:38:58.560
<v Speaker 1>forwards of the League who've been killing it all year.

0:38:58.760 --> 0:39:01.760
<v Speaker 2>What do you make of Charlie Kerno's final series today?

0:39:01.880 --> 0:39:05.800
<v Speaker 2>He's kicked two goals in two games. Not really set

0:39:05.800 --> 0:39:07.560
<v Speaker 2>in the world a lot. First game he had a

0:39:07.560 --> 0:39:11.160
<v Speaker 2>lot of touches, set up some things. Second game not

0:39:11.200 --> 0:39:12.360
<v Speaker 2>as much. Pretty quiet.

0:39:13.120 --> 0:39:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's interesting. I mean, I don't feel like Carleton's

0:39:17.200 --> 0:39:20.480
<v Speaker 1>kicking massive scores in general. Maybe they've chosen a bit

0:39:20.480 --> 0:39:22.359
<v Speaker 1>more of a defensive style with their you know, their

0:39:22.360 --> 0:39:25.439
<v Speaker 1>finals campaign. I'm not too sure, but yeah, I think

0:39:25.440 --> 0:39:28.160
<v Speaker 1>he's primed. Everyone knows he can kick an absolute bag

0:39:28.320 --> 0:39:31.080
<v Speaker 1>on a big stage, so he's primed at some point.

0:39:31.080 --> 0:39:33.640
<v Speaker 1>I feel like to be able to have that massive

0:39:33.719 --> 0:39:36.040
<v Speaker 1>game and kick a few goals, and I think this

0:39:36.120 --> 0:39:37.879
<v Speaker 1>is the one he's going to have to for them

0:39:37.880 --> 0:39:38.720
<v Speaker 1>to get over the line.

0:39:38.960 --> 0:39:41.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And like, yeah, it's interesting, Like a lot of

0:39:41.840 --> 0:39:45.200
<v Speaker 2>Carlton's mid tier has been stepping up in finals. But

0:39:45.680 --> 0:39:47.759
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to see Big King.

0:39:49.120 --> 0:39:50.160
<v Speaker 1>What matchup are you looking at?

0:39:51.239 --> 0:39:53.200
<v Speaker 2>I look back to see last time and it was

0:39:53.520 --> 0:39:59.080
<v Speaker 2>Dunk's playing on Paddy Cripps and Dunk's probably had his

0:39:59.200 --> 0:40:03.479
<v Speaker 2>best game for Brisbane up until that point, at least

0:40:03.520 --> 0:40:08.520
<v Speaker 2>definitely thirty three disposals, fourteen of those contested, thirteen tackles,

0:40:08.800 --> 0:40:14.239
<v Speaker 2>six clearances, and Crips only had the seventeen touches thirteen tackles.

0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:15.880
<v Speaker 2>It's a lot of tackles.

0:40:15.880 --> 0:40:18.080
<v Speaker 1>That's a lot of tackles. That's my season probably of

0:40:18.080 --> 0:40:19.120
<v Speaker 1>tackles in one game.

0:40:19.440 --> 0:40:25.080
<v Speaker 2>It's pretty good, and touches and touches. It was a

0:40:25.080 --> 0:40:28.759
<v Speaker 2>pretty good game. So you know, it's always interesting to

0:40:28.760 --> 0:40:31.759
<v Speaker 2>see if if teams go back to the well and

0:40:31.840 --> 0:40:33.800
<v Speaker 2>then to see if the other team has an answer

0:40:33.840 --> 0:40:35.680
<v Speaker 2>for it. Do they just roll back and do the

0:40:35.680 --> 0:40:39.759
<v Speaker 2>same thing because clearly it worked, and do they help

0:40:39.840 --> 0:40:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Crieps out more. It'll be interesting to see. But yeah,

0:40:45.040 --> 0:40:47.160
<v Speaker 2>that's mine. I'm keen to see how your boy Harris

0:40:47.200 --> 0:40:51.320
<v Speaker 2>Andrews does down there. I like watching the defense come finals.

0:40:51.360 --> 0:40:54.280
<v Speaker 2>Like we all like big goal kickers.

0:40:54.320 --> 0:40:55.640
<v Speaker 1>But both a bit more of the defensive.

0:40:56.120 --> 0:40:58.320
<v Speaker 2>And there's been some great defense.

0:40:58.040 --> 0:40:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Setup over the weekend.

0:41:00.080 --> 0:41:03.360
<v Speaker 2>He dominated teams now all seem to have a really

0:41:03.520 --> 0:41:08.160
<v Speaker 2>key like back. Yeah like that you got May Lever,

0:41:08.760 --> 0:41:11.640
<v Speaker 2>you had alia A Leah, you're Darcy Moore, you got

0:41:11.640 --> 0:41:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Harris Andrews, Like they all got these like absolute jets

0:41:16.280 --> 0:41:18.200
<v Speaker 2>and it's fun to just see them go head the

0:41:18.200 --> 0:41:21.000
<v Speaker 2>head with like a big key forward. Kind of missed

0:41:21.000 --> 0:41:23.600
<v Speaker 2>out on that from Melbourne because Melbourne don't have any forwards.

0:41:23.600 --> 0:41:29.080
<v Speaker 2>But I Digress went up there and played a little bit, yeah,

0:41:29.080 --> 0:41:31.000
<v Speaker 2>and he did well. So maybe if there was some

0:41:31.200 --> 0:41:33.440
<v Speaker 2>thing where they could have got a rock in and

0:41:33.480 --> 0:41:36.239
<v Speaker 2>then Max played forward, but I don't really know how

0:41:36.320 --> 0:41:37.200
<v Speaker 2>they could have done that.

0:41:38.520 --> 0:41:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Calm down, We'll move on to the next game.

0:41:41.600 --> 0:41:42.239
<v Speaker 2>What's that one.

0:41:42.360 --> 0:41:45.400
<v Speaker 1>It's the Congwood versus WUS game pre lame at the MCG.

0:41:46.880 --> 0:41:48.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what you're predicting as far as an

0:41:48.560 --> 0:41:51.160
<v Speaker 1>audience there, Brandon, but I would have to say it's

0:41:51.200 --> 0:41:53.080
<v Speaker 1>going to be over ninety five.

0:41:54.000 --> 0:41:57.879
<v Speaker 2>It is almost a replica of that well one. You've

0:41:57.880 --> 0:42:00.120
<v Speaker 2>already versed them in a prelium, but it is I

0:42:00.120 --> 0:42:01.719
<v Speaker 2>feel like it's going to be that vibe of that

0:42:01.840 --> 0:42:08.080
<v Speaker 2>Richmond GWS one where it's just like massive numbers, one sided,

0:42:08.920 --> 0:42:12.040
<v Speaker 2>and we'll see if they can pump up the volume

0:42:12.120 --> 0:42:16.000
<v Speaker 2>greater than Carlton fans could. I will say going into

0:42:16.000 --> 0:42:20.399
<v Speaker 2>this game that I've been told already external to this room,

0:42:20.480 --> 0:42:24.319
<v Speaker 2>external that I need to park my alliance to the

0:42:24.360 --> 0:42:25.520
<v Speaker 2>GWS Giants.

0:42:25.880 --> 0:42:28.279
<v Speaker 1>Wow, I didn't say that, So.

0:42:30.680 --> 0:42:34.040
<v Speaker 2>It's I've had a good ride on GWS all year.

0:42:34.760 --> 0:42:38.120
<v Speaker 2>I can't take them over Collingwood. So I'm saying this

0:42:38.200 --> 0:42:39.600
<v Speaker 2>is where the giants were.

0:42:39.440 --> 0:42:40.920
<v Speaker 1>To tell me if they went over the weekend, You're

0:42:40.960 --> 0:42:42.000
<v Speaker 1>not going to come in here and told you. I

0:42:42.080 --> 0:42:44.000
<v Speaker 1>told you the big pixel for the rest.

0:42:43.800 --> 0:42:46.439
<v Speaker 2>Of the town coming in fully decked out and merch.

0:42:46.520 --> 0:42:52.520
<v Speaker 2>But it's just for this game. So I'm parking it

0:42:52.600 --> 0:42:54.239
<v Speaker 2>here and I'll say this is where my alliance to

0:42:54.360 --> 0:42:56.680
<v Speaker 2>GWS is halted.

0:42:57.320 --> 0:43:00.439
<v Speaker 1>Wow, all year it comes down to the cluch moments

0:43:00.440 --> 0:43:02.880
<v Speaker 1>spread and you just I must say this for everyone

0:43:02.920 --> 0:43:06.680
<v Speaker 1>listening that I did not have any influence in this decision.

0:43:06.560 --> 0:43:09.319
<v Speaker 2>And it's painful because I was on them early. So

0:43:10.239 --> 0:43:13.960
<v Speaker 2>you better win. But let's jump into the talking points,

0:43:13.960 --> 0:43:18.120
<v Speaker 2>because last time you versed these guys, sixty five point winners,

0:43:18.160 --> 0:43:21.560
<v Speaker 2>probably the last little part and maybe even the catalyst

0:43:21.680 --> 0:43:25.960
<v Speaker 2>for them, just like turning things around sixty five point

0:43:26.000 --> 0:43:30.040
<v Speaker 2>win round nine at the g and people might remember

0:43:30.120 --> 0:43:32.960
<v Speaker 2>this game for the game that Mason Cox tore apart

0:43:33.520 --> 0:43:35.200
<v Speaker 2>with your nineteen touches to goals.

0:43:35.680 --> 0:43:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Wait, hold, let's check that that is better than donks

0:43:39.000 --> 0:43:40.239
<v Speaker 1>to still guarding another's.

0:43:43.880 --> 0:43:46.320
<v Speaker 2>But it was pretty good. And you played against Matt

0:43:46.520 --> 0:43:49.960
<v Speaker 2>Flynn in the ruck. Yeah, it is interesting because he's

0:43:50.000 --> 0:43:54.799
<v Speaker 2>around and Briggs injured, whether they make a change there.

0:43:55.040 --> 0:43:58.000
<v Speaker 2>It was pretty even in the ruck, but you did

0:43:58.040 --> 0:44:00.880
<v Speaker 2>play well across the ground. What you remember from that

0:44:00.920 --> 0:44:03.080
<v Speaker 2>game and do you take much from it or does

0:44:03.120 --> 0:44:05.400
<v Speaker 2>it feel like it's a lifetime ago for both teams.

0:44:05.480 --> 0:44:07.280
<v Speaker 1>It feels like a lifetime ago. I think Matt Flinn

0:44:07.280 --> 0:44:10.439
<v Speaker 1>had the most clearances of their team, So I don't

0:44:10.480 --> 0:44:13.160
<v Speaker 1>think who needs I had that as creditbit game as

0:44:13.160 --> 0:44:16.239
<v Speaker 1>you're really make it out to be. But yeah, well

0:44:16.280 --> 0:44:17.880
<v Speaker 1>we'll ended up seeing what the Rock Battle is going

0:44:17.920 --> 0:44:20.880
<v Speaker 1>to be like. But yeah, I think this game at

0:44:20.880 --> 0:44:23.279
<v Speaker 1>the MCG, although the score was heavy one side, I

0:44:23.320 --> 0:44:24.839
<v Speaker 1>feel like it was a pretty close game as far

0:44:24.880 --> 0:44:27.040
<v Speaker 1>as everything. As far whenever you look at the stats,

0:44:27.680 --> 0:44:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I think you wrote down out here like the colling

0:44:29.880 --> 0:44:31.640
<v Speaker 1>was tackles with sixty three twenty nine. That was the

0:44:31.640 --> 0:44:34.120
<v Speaker 1>big kind of thing that stuck out. But in the

0:44:34.200 --> 0:44:37.520
<v Speaker 1>kicking efficiency inside fifty with sixty two forty seven percent,

0:44:37.680 --> 0:44:42.360
<v Speaker 1>So other than those stats, it was pretty even. Keel, Yeah,

0:44:42.560 --> 0:44:45.000
<v Speaker 1>but obviously you look at I guess, our ability to

0:44:45.000 --> 0:44:47.960
<v Speaker 1>finish in front of goals, the efficiency we're going in

0:44:48.280 --> 0:44:50.080
<v Speaker 1>and everything else was the reason we're able to get

0:44:50.160 --> 0:44:52.200
<v Speaker 1>up by that many points. So it's going to be

0:44:52.200 --> 0:44:54.400
<v Speaker 1>an interesting game. I'm really excited for it. Like obviously,

0:44:54.480 --> 0:44:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Joe us on a bit of a role at the moment,

0:44:56.280 --> 0:44:59.160
<v Speaker 1>and you know, you talked about them and the last

0:44:59.160 --> 0:45:01.040
<v Speaker 1>time we played them with a catalyst for them to

0:45:01.080 --> 0:45:02.399
<v Speaker 1>be able to go on a bit of a role.

0:45:02.760 --> 0:45:04.520
<v Speaker 1>And then I think back to Port Adelaide round two

0:45:04.760 --> 0:45:06.719
<v Speaker 1>after we smashed them at the MCG, they went on

0:45:06.760 --> 0:45:10.320
<v Speaker 1>like a twelve game straight winning spree. So it seems

0:45:11.000 --> 0:45:12.600
<v Speaker 1>seem to have like, you know, all of a sudden,

0:45:12.600 --> 0:45:14.399
<v Speaker 1>I got a bit of a fire lit up under

0:45:14.400 --> 0:45:16.920
<v Speaker 1>their ass and had a really good time after we

0:45:17.040 --> 0:45:18.759
<v Speaker 1>played them. But it's going to be a big game,

0:45:18.800 --> 0:45:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Like I said, a massive crowd. I'm excited. It is

0:45:21.920 --> 0:45:25.919
<v Speaker 1>exciting times and geez, it's going to be a roar

0:45:26.120 --> 0:45:28.800
<v Speaker 1>at the MCG. I feel like we've never heard before jeez.

0:45:28.960 --> 0:45:31.480
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, so the stats last time, it was like

0:45:31.600 --> 0:45:35.560
<v Speaker 2>disposals were the same, like clearances were the same, like

0:45:35.640 --> 0:45:38.520
<v Speaker 2>inside fifties were the same. So yeah, it must have

0:45:38.560 --> 0:45:41.920
<v Speaker 2>come down to, like your looks and the names that

0:45:42.320 --> 0:45:45.040
<v Speaker 2>I read out here, you can't let these guys get

0:45:45.040 --> 0:45:47.480
<v Speaker 2>this much of the ball. Nick Dak lost forty one touches,

0:45:47.560 --> 0:45:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Tom Mitchell thirty six, Jordan to Goi thirty one and

0:45:50.920 --> 0:45:54.520
<v Speaker 2>a goal. They're pretty damaging players, so it would have

0:45:54.560 --> 0:45:57.560
<v Speaker 2>been some pretty good service. I imagine Jesse Hogan did

0:45:57.560 --> 0:45:59.279
<v Speaker 2>well at the other end, kicking three. And it's been

0:45:59.320 --> 0:46:00.800
<v Speaker 2>one hell of a year for Jesse Hogan.

0:46:01.000 --> 0:46:03.560
<v Speaker 1>He is killing it. Like credit to him. I just

0:46:03.920 --> 0:46:05.680
<v Speaker 1>I feel like there's a time whereas it freemantle and

0:46:05.719 --> 0:46:07.640
<v Speaker 1>there's the questions around his career and everything else. And

0:46:07.680 --> 0:46:11.200
<v Speaker 1>now at the GWS Giants, he has reinvented himself. He

0:46:11.280 --> 0:46:13.399
<v Speaker 1>is dominating out there and he's kicking like at least

0:46:13.400 --> 0:46:15.919
<v Speaker 1>three goals a game. So his ability to move around

0:46:16.000 --> 0:46:17.759
<v Speaker 1>was watching him on the weekend is like ability to

0:46:17.800 --> 0:46:19.800
<v Speaker 1>get behind his defender, move around and keep them guessing.

0:46:19.840 --> 0:46:23.239
<v Speaker 1>It's just like second to none. And he can take

0:46:23.280 --> 0:46:25.600
<v Speaker 1>a big clunk too, So he's definitely got the attribute

0:46:25.640 --> 0:46:28.719
<v Speaker 1>to be an important key player and their team over

0:46:28.760 --> 0:46:29.200
<v Speaker 1>the weekend.

0:46:29.560 --> 0:46:32.160
<v Speaker 2>And who's the matchup on him who's.

0:46:31.920 --> 0:46:34.480
<v Speaker 1>The matchup on him would probably be Darcy Morel as soon.

0:46:34.880 --> 0:46:37.759
<v Speaker 1>He's a pretty decent defender himself, which would be a

0:46:37.800 --> 0:46:39.520
<v Speaker 1>great little matchup.

0:46:40.440 --> 0:46:44.160
<v Speaker 2>I will say that my favorite matchup is and always

0:46:44.200 --> 0:46:49.799
<v Speaker 2>will be Toby Green versus Bradon Man. Oh yes, I

0:46:49.840 --> 0:46:51.680
<v Speaker 2>want it to go for it.

0:46:51.719 --> 0:46:52.920
<v Speaker 1>How long do you think it's going to take for

0:46:52.920 --> 0:46:55.080
<v Speaker 1>them to get in the scuffle? Ten fifteen seconds? It

0:46:55.200 --> 0:46:55.680
<v Speaker 1>is the game.

0:46:55.800 --> 0:46:59.000
<v Speaker 2>I feel like there's that like the respect between them.

0:46:59.239 --> 0:47:01.720
<v Speaker 1>There is funny thing but like in between the sirens,

0:47:01.760 --> 0:47:03.600
<v Speaker 1>they're like, no, I don't give a shit who you are.

0:47:04.040 --> 0:47:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's always so good and Branden he's held

0:47:09.040 --> 0:47:13.440
<v Speaker 2>himself pretty well over the years, so always be good. Obviously,

0:47:13.520 --> 0:47:15.799
<v Speaker 2>you know, coming off a pretty stressful period of time

0:47:15.840 --> 0:47:18.000
<v Speaker 2>for Brandon Maynard, so it'd be good to see how

0:47:18.040 --> 0:47:22.279
<v Speaker 2>he bounces back. And Toby Green hasn't been suspended or

0:47:22.400 --> 0:47:25.600
<v Speaker 2>even looked at this final series, so he's a changed

0:47:25.640 --> 0:47:29.600
<v Speaker 2>man as the captain of the All Australians.

0:47:29.200 --> 0:47:31.279
<v Speaker 1>AFL has just reinvented him.

0:47:31.719 --> 0:47:33.520
<v Speaker 2>So there's been a couple of injuries and a couple

0:47:33.560 --> 0:47:34.239
<v Speaker 2>of returns.

0:47:35.520 --> 0:47:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Nick beakos, it's good how the best player in the

0:47:38.080 --> 0:47:40.120
<v Speaker 1>league back. That's nice, that's that's a tick.

0:47:40.600 --> 0:47:42.880
<v Speaker 2>We've been seeing him. He's got the tick of approval

0:47:42.880 --> 0:47:46.800
<v Speaker 2>for Collingwood. He's back. Saw him at training doing little

0:47:46.840 --> 0:47:52.160
<v Speaker 2>stoppage drills and stuff, or he's building. Is there no

0:47:52.280 --> 0:47:55.359
<v Speaker 2>nerves about bringing him back? Just off your run into

0:47:55.360 --> 0:47:56.320
<v Speaker 2>a prelim.

0:47:56.160 --> 0:47:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Good luck? I mean I saw him for the Brown laugh,

0:47:59.760 --> 0:48:04.120
<v Speaker 1>So I can't imagine you'd be like, oh brownlow medalist. Yeah,

0:48:04.280 --> 0:48:06.520
<v Speaker 1>you have to ease into this one.

0:48:06.840 --> 0:48:08.839
<v Speaker 2>What if you start him as the sub and then

0:48:08.920 --> 0:48:09.680
<v Speaker 2>just don't bring that on?

0:48:09.880 --> 0:48:13.040
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't imagine that. It'd be wild. Wouldn't that be silly?

0:48:13.200 --> 0:48:16.400
<v Speaker 2>And then is it just a matter of Taylor Adams unfortunately,

0:48:16.400 --> 0:48:19.919
<v Speaker 2>and he's been through this similar in the past, hamstring

0:48:20.160 --> 0:48:23.000
<v Speaker 2>injury strain at training.

0:48:23.239 --> 0:48:25.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this week pretty minimum, I feel like from what

0:48:25.800 --> 0:48:28.440
<v Speaker 1>I've been told, So there's still capability of him playing

0:48:28.880 --> 0:48:30.719
<v Speaker 1>if if we go all over the weekend to be

0:48:30.760 --> 0:48:33.919
<v Speaker 1>able to have play in the Granny. But and yeah,

0:48:34.000 --> 0:48:35.640
<v Speaker 1>it happened in training and it was one of those

0:48:35.680 --> 0:48:39.480
<v Speaker 1>moments where you know you can see someone's face and

0:48:39.520 --> 0:48:42.600
<v Speaker 1>you see them kind of hobbling, and I remember seeing

0:48:42.640 --> 0:48:44.840
<v Speaker 1>it and I was just like you gotta be kidding me. Yeah, Like,

0:48:44.920 --> 0:48:47.600
<v Speaker 1>this guy's been integral part to our team for a

0:48:47.600 --> 0:48:49.880
<v Speaker 1>long time, obviously in the leadership position, but also just

0:48:49.920 --> 0:48:53.400
<v Speaker 1>around the ground, and you feel for that. You know,

0:48:53.760 --> 0:48:56.480
<v Speaker 1>it's never a position anyone wants to be in. And

0:48:56.840 --> 0:48:59.279
<v Speaker 1>someone who was part of that twenty eighteen we were

0:48:59.280 --> 0:49:01.480
<v Speaker 1>that close to winning the whole thing, and you know,

0:49:01.560 --> 0:49:04.600
<v Speaker 1>be a part of a campaign now and have to

0:49:04.719 --> 0:49:06.680
<v Speaker 1>sit out a big game like this is definitely gonna

0:49:06.920 --> 0:49:08.640
<v Speaker 1>turn and part inside, I'm sure for a bit. But

0:49:09.120 --> 0:49:11.600
<v Speaker 1>I know he's a guy that loves to do the

0:49:11.640 --> 0:49:13.560
<v Speaker 1>best to be able to get back in I've noticed

0:49:13.560 --> 0:49:15.600
<v Speaker 1>over the last little chunk that he's doing every single

0:49:15.640 --> 0:49:17.040
<v Speaker 1>thing he can to be able to try to put

0:49:17.080 --> 0:49:19.719
<v Speaker 1>himself in best dance. So he might be a possibility.

0:49:19.840 --> 0:49:21.880
<v Speaker 1>So it's a credit to him. He's going to do

0:49:21.960 --> 0:49:23.600
<v Speaker 1>everything in his power. I think. I he's been in

0:49:23.600 --> 0:49:25.600
<v Speaker 1>the hyperbaric chamber of about ten times in the last

0:49:25.640 --> 0:49:30.279
<v Speaker 1>four days, so he's yeah, he's obviously you would be

0:49:30.280 --> 0:49:33.480
<v Speaker 1>gutted as he can imagine, but there is up to him.

0:49:33.680 --> 0:49:36.719
<v Speaker 2>Prayers up. He's been he's had a really good season. Yeah, yeah,

0:49:36.800 --> 0:49:39.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. What's changed about his role because he's

0:49:39.320 --> 0:49:40.160
<v Speaker 2>moved into a new role.

0:49:40.560 --> 0:49:42.120
<v Speaker 1>He played midfield and then he got moved into the

0:49:42.120 --> 0:49:44.000
<v Speaker 1>ford line, so he's kind of playing a bit of

0:49:44.000 --> 0:49:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that small forward now brings up pressure and his abilities,

0:49:48.040 --> 0:49:50.239
<v Speaker 1>I guess to have a leadership role in that that

0:49:50.280 --> 0:49:52.520
<v Speaker 1>forward line has been massive, so he's playing a bit

0:49:52.520 --> 0:49:55.520
<v Speaker 1>of a different role. But with so many midfielders coming in,

0:49:56.040 --> 0:49:57.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, you have to be able to kind of

0:49:57.280 --> 0:49:59.359
<v Speaker 1>move people around in different places to get people rest

0:49:59.400 --> 0:50:01.680
<v Speaker 1>and get people in side the call face. So he's

0:50:01.920 --> 0:50:03.479
<v Speaker 1>been one of those that's, you know, how to change

0:50:03.520 --> 0:50:05.120
<v Speaker 1>a bit of what he does on the football field.

0:50:05.160 --> 0:50:07.960
<v Speaker 1>But he's yeah. To credit him, he's been integro all

0:50:08.000 --> 0:50:10.080
<v Speaker 1>year and fortunately we'll have him over the weekend.

0:50:10.239 --> 0:50:15.240
<v Speaker 2>They got like Cannelio Whitfield, Tom Green, which allows Toby

0:50:15.360 --> 0:50:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Green to play out forward with Jesse Hogan who's killing

0:50:18.040 --> 0:50:22.040
<v Speaker 2>it down back. They got Sam Taylor, they got Harry Himmelberg,

0:50:22.480 --> 0:50:27.440
<v Speaker 2>Like they're all pretty talented football and looking back now,

0:50:27.520 --> 0:50:30.600
<v Speaker 2>is probably surprising that it was picked to have like

0:50:30.680 --> 0:50:34.440
<v Speaker 2>this drop off, like where do you start and where

0:50:34.480 --> 0:50:36.600
<v Speaker 2>do you look at when it comes up against GWS,

0:50:36.760 --> 0:50:37.720
<v Speaker 2>Like what's their dangers.

0:50:38.080 --> 0:50:42.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think they just they play really well together, right,

0:50:42.680 --> 0:50:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Like they connect really well. Their ability to give them

0:50:46.160 --> 0:50:48.520
<v Speaker 1>best service inside forward fifty was a massive thing over

0:50:48.560 --> 0:50:52.040
<v Speaker 1>the weekend. I felt like it was very noticeable. But

0:50:52.040 --> 0:50:54.640
<v Speaker 1>they're just a team that has those key pillars and

0:50:54.680 --> 0:50:57.240
<v Speaker 1>those key positions that you need as far as leadership,

0:50:57.239 --> 0:50:59.080
<v Speaker 1>as far as making clays and things like that. That's

0:50:59.120 --> 0:51:01.080
<v Speaker 1>really put them in good stefy throughout the finals campaign,

0:51:01.120 --> 0:51:03.200
<v Speaker 1>throughout the year. To be honest, like they have been

0:51:03.239 --> 0:51:05.640
<v Speaker 1>a team because they're in Sydney, maybe because they're not

0:51:05.680 --> 0:51:07.319
<v Speaker 1>the bigger team in Sydney and stuff like that, they've

0:51:07.320 --> 0:51:09.960
<v Speaker 1>flying under the radar a bit, and you know, I

0:51:09.960 --> 0:51:13.840
<v Speaker 1>think teams maybe throughout the year of yeah, I guess

0:51:14.120 --> 0:51:19.120
<v Speaker 1>look past them somewhat. And they've made people pay every

0:51:19.160 --> 0:51:20.520
<v Speaker 1>single game and they're on a bit of a roll

0:51:20.520 --> 0:51:23.960
<v Speaker 1>at the moment. So yeah, they'll look to continue that momentum,

0:51:24.000 --> 0:51:26.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure over the weekend and their ability to get

0:51:26.440 --> 0:51:28.239
<v Speaker 1>the ball forward has been incredible and you know, like

0:51:28.239 --> 0:51:30.080
<v Speaker 1>I said, some of their key players are really you know,

0:51:30.280 --> 0:51:32.320
<v Speaker 1>stacking up whenever it comes to these finals campaigns and

0:51:32.560 --> 0:51:34.640
<v Speaker 1>making a statement. So it's a credit to them what

0:51:34.640 --> 0:51:35.520
<v Speaker 1>they've been doing so far.

0:51:35.760 --> 0:51:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Cannely Josh Kelly. Yeah, good, good team, best GWS player

0:51:41.280 --> 0:51:46.600
<v Speaker 2>that's going to be out there. We'll ask Canelli the Husk.

0:51:47.280 --> 0:51:48.360
<v Speaker 1>We love the Hosk.

0:51:48.600 --> 0:51:52.799
<v Speaker 2>What's your week look like? Now? What have you been

0:51:52.840 --> 0:51:55.759
<v Speaker 2>doing over the by period? What's this you know, two

0:51:55.840 --> 0:51:58.000
<v Speaker 2>weeks kind of looked like? And how do you ramp

0:51:58.080 --> 0:51:59.080
<v Speaker 2>up going into the game.

0:51:59.160 --> 0:52:00.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean it's it's kind of interesting, want to

0:52:00.760 --> 0:52:02.960
<v Speaker 1>play two games in a month. It's a weird feeling

0:52:03.000 --> 0:52:06.640
<v Speaker 1>like we've never gone this way through finals. We've always

0:52:06.680 --> 0:52:08.760
<v Speaker 1>had to go the hard way, so I've never actually

0:52:08.800 --> 0:52:11.160
<v Speaker 1>experienced to have a week after and finals and watching

0:52:11.160 --> 0:52:13.120
<v Speaker 1>the games over the weekend, it was this weird feeling

0:52:13.160 --> 0:52:15.239
<v Speaker 1>of like we should be playing kind of thing. You know,

0:52:15.400 --> 0:52:17.960
<v Speaker 1>we should be playing tomorrow. So that was a bit odd.

0:52:18.000 --> 0:52:20.640
<v Speaker 1>But you know, we got the week a few days off,

0:52:20.680 --> 0:52:23.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, and then we essentially just get into the

0:52:23.120 --> 0:52:25.560
<v Speaker 1>normal routine now. So same thing that we're doing all

0:52:25.640 --> 0:52:27.359
<v Speaker 1>year as far as going into games and as far

0:52:27.400 --> 0:52:31.160
<v Speaker 1>as reviews and previews and everything else. It's a normal week.

0:52:31.239 --> 0:52:34.120
<v Speaker 1>So nothing really changes too much from our perspective, and

0:52:34.360 --> 0:52:36.160
<v Speaker 1>we just continue kind of doing what we've been doing

0:52:36.200 --> 0:52:38.480
<v Speaker 1>all year with you know, obviously scouting another team and

0:52:39.000 --> 0:52:41.080
<v Speaker 1>try to put our things that we think will go

0:52:41.120 --> 0:52:43.120
<v Speaker 1>well against them into training and then go from there.

0:52:43.200 --> 0:52:45.880
<v Speaker 1>So not much changes, to be honest. Like there's a

0:52:45.920 --> 0:52:47.520
<v Speaker 1>bit of hype obviously with the prelim and a bit

0:52:47.560 --> 0:52:49.600
<v Speaker 1>of a bit of chaos around the noise and stuff

0:52:49.640 --> 0:52:52.200
<v Speaker 1>like that, but I think inside the four walls, it's

0:52:52.200 --> 0:52:54.239
<v Speaker 1>pretty much the same week just that we've had all

0:52:54.280 --> 0:52:58.240
<v Speaker 1>single year, every week all year, so it's pretty crazy.

0:52:58.320 --> 0:53:01.400
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of a weird feeling to I don't know.

0:53:01.440 --> 0:53:04.359
<v Speaker 1>Everyone expects like a something nuts to happen or something

0:53:04.440 --> 0:53:05.359
<v Speaker 1>unique or different, and.

0:53:05.280 --> 0:53:09.040
<v Speaker 2>It's like, so you don't feel it's not like feeling

0:53:09.080 --> 0:53:11.479
<v Speaker 2>any different. You're not nervous, you're not you're not.

0:53:11.840 --> 0:53:13.719
<v Speaker 1>Schedules the same and everything else. Like I mean, like

0:53:13.719 --> 0:53:15.439
<v Speaker 1>I remember in twenty eighteen, you never heard the Grand

0:53:15.480 --> 0:53:17.759
<v Speaker 1>Final and like whoever makes it there, it's like a

0:53:17.800 --> 0:53:20.960
<v Speaker 1>very different schedule in the week, but like a prelim

0:53:21.160 --> 0:53:23.480
<v Speaker 1>is it's you don't have all that extra stuff that

0:53:23.520 --> 0:53:26.080
<v Speaker 1>comes with it, so it's very much just another game

0:53:26.280 --> 0:53:29.879
<v Speaker 1>work in that's in that sense, So yeah, it's it's

0:53:29.920 --> 0:53:32.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna be exciting weekend. It's going to be an incredible

0:53:32.120 --> 0:53:34.520
<v Speaker 1>crowd hopefully, and you know, hopefully we can get the win.

0:53:34.719 --> 0:53:36.879
<v Speaker 2>Being on like a massive stage like that in front

0:53:36.920 --> 0:53:39.160
<v Speaker 2>of a massive crowd. People always say it's like the

0:53:39.200 --> 0:53:42.000
<v Speaker 2>biggest crowd you get. Yeah, because you don't have the

0:53:42.000 --> 0:53:47.320
<v Speaker 2>corporate it's does your brain let you absorb what's happening.

0:53:48.520 --> 0:53:51.839
<v Speaker 1>Not really, Whenever the siren goes, it becomes process. Like

0:53:52.000 --> 0:53:54.719
<v Speaker 1>I think obviously in big moments where someone lays a

0:53:54.800 --> 0:53:56.360
<v Speaker 1>tackle or something, you hear the crowd and like you

0:53:56.400 --> 0:53:58.399
<v Speaker 1>hear that kind of stuff. But I feel like because

0:53:58.400 --> 0:54:01.680
<v Speaker 1>you're so like in the moment of the zone and

0:54:01.719 --> 0:54:03.480
<v Speaker 1>trying to get people organized and trying to be part

0:54:03.520 --> 0:54:05.040
<v Speaker 1>of the carg and the machine kind of thing that

0:54:05.480 --> 0:54:08.080
<v Speaker 1>you don't that's not consciously happening in your head. You know,

0:54:08.120 --> 0:54:09.839
<v Speaker 1>you're you're too busy focusing on the things that are

0:54:09.840 --> 0:54:13.279
<v Speaker 1>happening in front of you. Say, obviously you feel the

0:54:13.360 --> 0:54:15.680
<v Speaker 1>crowd at times, and you notice that if you win,

0:54:16.640 --> 0:54:19.000
<v Speaker 1>you'll definitely get to sit back and after you know,

0:54:19.040 --> 0:54:20.560
<v Speaker 1>the siren goes, you're sitting there looking around like this

0:54:20.600 --> 0:54:22.960
<v Speaker 1>is incredible. You know, like at the Melbourne game. As

0:54:23.000 --> 0:54:24.480
<v Speaker 1>soon as that siren win, it was like this star

0:54:24.600 --> 0:54:26.600
<v Speaker 1>relief and you're looking around the chaos and the people

0:54:26.600 --> 0:54:28.520
<v Speaker 1>in the stands going nice and you're like, holy shit,

0:54:29.200 --> 0:54:32.560
<v Speaker 1>this is wild. It was like, oh, you've been watching

0:54:32.600 --> 0:54:35.320
<v Speaker 1>this whole time. Oh my gosh. Now it's it's incredible

0:54:35.360 --> 0:54:37.799
<v Speaker 1>to have an amazing you know, Magpie Army there and

0:54:37.880 --> 0:54:40.239
<v Speaker 1>dad for them to enjoy it with us and you know,

0:54:40.320 --> 0:54:42.240
<v Speaker 1>help us through these signs. We talk about a nineteenth

0:54:42.239 --> 0:54:44.520
<v Speaker 1>man on the ground and that's what it feels like,

0:54:44.600 --> 0:54:46.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's it's an incredible to be part of a

0:54:46.920 --> 0:54:49.200
<v Speaker 1>club that brings that kind of passionate supporters with it.

0:54:49.800 --> 0:54:51.879
<v Speaker 1>But as far as crowds, as long as you get

0:54:51.960 --> 0:54:54.560
<v Speaker 1>ninety six, four hundred and thirteen, which is one more

0:54:54.600 --> 0:54:58.200
<v Speaker 1>than the Carlton game, I'm happy. I'm happy. So it

0:54:58.200 --> 0:55:00.120
<v Speaker 1>would be a big game. Go out and yeah, if

0:55:00.160 --> 0:55:01.960
<v Speaker 1>you've got the mcc passes or whatever it is, make

0:55:01.960 --> 0:55:04.520
<v Speaker 1>sure they're filled and just let's fill up the MCG.

0:55:04.640 --> 0:55:06.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm excited. It's gonna be a good time.

0:55:06.280 --> 0:55:08.719
<v Speaker 2>And lastly, before we wrap things up, you've got the

0:55:08.719 --> 0:55:11.200
<v Speaker 2>fam coming over. Filthy Phil is gonna be tearing it.

0:55:11.200 --> 0:55:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Up Filthy Phil, have a lookout for him. He'll probably

0:55:13.360 --> 0:55:15.919
<v Speaker 1>be on the banner before the game. He tends to

0:55:16.000 --> 0:55:17.799
<v Speaker 1>get with the cheer squad with my mother and hold

0:55:17.840 --> 0:55:20.440
<v Speaker 1>up the banner. They just love the footy. They'll get

0:55:20.440 --> 0:55:22.359
<v Speaker 1>in on Wednesday. One of my brothers is already here

0:55:22.360 --> 0:55:24.080
<v Speaker 1>and then the other brother comes in on Friday, so

0:55:24.160 --> 0:55:25.640
<v Speaker 1>the whole fan would be here over the weekend. Who'd

0:55:25.680 --> 0:55:28.400
<v Speaker 1>be exciting. Last year, they weren't too happy with my

0:55:28.480 --> 0:55:31.359
<v Speaker 1>performance because I played a half of game and then

0:55:31.400 --> 0:55:33.840
<v Speaker 1>we lost. So then they stuck around for the Grand

0:55:33.880 --> 0:55:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Final and it was like I came here to what

0:55:35.600 --> 0:55:37.960
<v Speaker 1>you play, you know, forty five minutes of game time

0:55:37.960 --> 0:55:41.400
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, yep, sorry bro. So hopefully I

0:55:41.400 --> 0:55:43.120
<v Speaker 1>can have a better experience this timmer around. But it

0:55:43.160 --> 0:55:44.960
<v Speaker 1>is great to have the family. I'm sure there'll be

0:55:44.960 --> 0:55:47.000
<v Speaker 1>a bit of media with them. They tend to find

0:55:47.040 --> 0:55:47.800
<v Speaker 1>a mic somewhere.

0:55:47.840 --> 0:55:50.520
<v Speaker 2>And lastly, we will say a quick prayers to run

0:55:50.640 --> 0:55:56.399
<v Speaker 2>Barrassi and Kevin Cowboy and Neil unfortunately passed throughout the week,

0:55:57.520 --> 0:55:58.719
<v Speaker 2>so prayers up to those two.

0:55:58.800 --> 0:56:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, icons of the IFILL. You devoted their life to

0:56:02.680 --> 0:56:05.680
<v Speaker 1>the IFL and you know a trunk of their huge

0:56:05.760 --> 0:56:07.759
<v Speaker 1>chunk of their life and time on this earth to

0:56:08.360 --> 0:56:10.759
<v Speaker 1>the successes they've had, So a credit to them what

0:56:10.760 --> 0:56:13.600
<v Speaker 1>they've been able to accomplish, and you know, farts and pros.

0:56:13.640 --> 0:56:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Grat to their family and friends.

0:56:15.320 --> 0:56:18.360
<v Speaker 2>It's a week away before we're sitting here and seeing
