1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Ninety six AIRFMS owned Freemantle Docker David Monday, David, good morning.

2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 2: Look, I don't think there's any point in asking you

3
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 2: how you are. It's written all over your face.

4
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 3: Yeah. Things going quite well, aren't they.

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 1: So they are going very well.

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're pretty I hope you're enjoying it.

7
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 4: Well, we're very proud of the way that we're performing,

8
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 4: I guess and the connection and relationships that were spent

9
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 4: so long on over the preseason in particular and over

10
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 4: the last couple of years with justin coming in coming

11
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 4: to the four.

12
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,479
Speaker 1: On game day, Yeah, so went over North Melbourne. Now

13
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: North haven't had a great year, but you've got to

14
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 1: play who you pitched up against. And it was a

15
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: good win seventy eight points.

16
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was nice to get a pretty comfortable win.

17
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 3: In the end.

18
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 4: We had a fairly tumultuous week with our COVID goals

19
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 4: last week, so six going out and completely altered our

20
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 4: training week.

21
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 3: So there were quite a few distractions for our group

22
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 3: last week.

23
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 4: So to come out and from the start really stamp

24
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 4: our authority and play the way we wanted to play

25
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 4: was really pleasing.

26
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, you looked in control the whole time. And that's

27
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: got to be a good feeling because I imagine that

28
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: just snowballs throughout the game.

29
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would hope it was.

30
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 4: And we're still a young group, so we're still figuring

31
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 4: out what our best foot he looks like, and how

32
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 4: to implement it all the time. So to take opportunities

33
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 4: like that where we jump into a game really well,

34
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 4: he's a good step forward.

35
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

36
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 1: And when the boy from Bustleton via East Perth and

37
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: all the rest of it kicks his first goal and

38
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: the crowd going person is you're welcome. It was a

39
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: great moment and you see his family in the standard.

40
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 3: It was insane.

41
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 4: We went through it yesterday in our review, but I

42
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,839
Speaker 4: still get like goosebumps talking about it. But you see

43
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 4: after he kicks his goal and everyone on the ground

44
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 4: gets to him. Yeah, and then on the broadcast it

45
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 4: flashes to his family and they're going nuts up in

46
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 4: their box and you just think, like, what does it

47
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 4: mean to his family and the people that are close

48
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 4: and connected to him, Like he's living out his boyhood

49
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 4: dream and he kicks a goal in the first five

50
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 4: minutes of his first halfl game.

51
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 3: It's a big moment.

52
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: That was Pavlo to do that. Yeah, first kick, first goal.

53
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he just beat for time.

54
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, did do it in his first game, he did.

55
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's one of those Yeah, first kick, first goal goys.

56
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: Actually take us behind the scenes, mate. So when all

57
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: the boys have all run in like that, so even

58
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: the defenders, I've got a long way to go back.

59
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: And I see Brendan Cox jumps up on top of

60
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: Shan Darcy and Shoran goes, yeah, you get injured when

61
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: you do that stuff.

62
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, not injured.

63
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 4: There's been a few head clashes things like that. But yeah,

64
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 4: Brandon Walker was just coming onto the ground as well,

65
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 4: and so he's coming onto the middle of the ground

66
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 4: and obviously Joe kicks his goal, so he sprints over,

67
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 4: joins the huddle, taps him on the head maybe once,

68
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 4: and then you know it gets going back into the

69
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 4: back line. So yeah, moments like that to take your

70
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 4: snapshot in time and celebrate those pots are important and

71
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 4: it's something we're doing really well as a group.

72
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 2: So you mentioned Cox defenders are kicking goals as well.

73
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 2: Yeah young Yeah Clark.

74
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, so young. He kicked his first goal as well,

75
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 3: which yeah, took.

76
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,399
Speaker 4: A little bit longer for the group to recognize because

77
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 4: he's played a few more games, I guess.

78
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: But Cade's wrong was reminding everyone, Yeah yeah.

79
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 3: Holding the one up.

80
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, so that was really nice and Brendan actually so

81
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 4: he was. I think he might have been playing in

82
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 4: the ruck at that time, so the midfielders will claim

83
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 4: that one.

84
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 3: Thank you, Lisa. Okay, so he actually called that during

85
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:12,279
Speaker 3: the weather Boys.

86
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 4: When it was announced in one of our meetings that

87
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 4: he was going to be a backup rush.

88
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 3: Yeah.

89
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, he said to a few of the guys afterwards.

90
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 4: I haven't kicked the goals since twodoys and nineteen. I'm

91
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,839
Speaker 4: getting hard forward this week, and yeah, pretty good player

92
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 4: by Nathan Driscoll, keep.

93
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,119
Speaker 3: The ball in and a nice finish by Brinnan.

94
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 2: Talking about you know, Caleb holding his finger up letting

95
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: everyone know that that was number one, and everyone really

96
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: looking out for each other, it seems on the ground.

97
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: We were talking to Ryan Daniels the other day about

98
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 2: how this year, no one's ever seen Frio play as

99
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: cohesively as a group that really seems to care for

100
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: each other and everything before.

101
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I mentioned it off the top, but it's

102
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 4: been one of Justin's biggest matches coming in about building

103
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 4: relationships not only between the coaches and the players, but

104
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 4: amongst the playing group.

105
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can really see it.

106
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think that's a real big brier product

107
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 4: of spending so much time together over his first two

108
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 4: years we're in COVID hubs, had a lot of new

109
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 4: guys come in and figuring out their process and yeah,

110
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 4: that connection, I think you're right, is coming out on

111
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 4: game day.

112
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: It feels different to the Frio sort of purple patch

113
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: of twenty ten to fifteen. We've seemed to be more

114
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: senior players in that Pablets era and you're well, literally

115
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: in the figure it and five he was becoming a

116
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: real star. It seems a bit different there. There's more

117
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: youth now. And I know that youth group was led

118
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: by sort of you know, the likes of Stephen Hill

119
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: on that, but there's even more young guys and there's

120
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: a good list there now.

121
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 3: Yeah.

122
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 4: Well, I think to start going around from the Weekends

123
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 4: game was that we were younger and less experienced than

124
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 4: North Melbourne, even with yeah, myself in that team, so

125
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 4: old men like you well yeah, yeah, I didn't want

126
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 4: to say.

127
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 3: Old man, but thank you.

128
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 4: Yes, I think it shows certainly that we're on the

129
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 4: right track, and it's really i think promising for the future,

130
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 4: not that what we're doing now guarantees us anything.

131
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: There were a couple of injury scares through the game.

132
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 2: Bailey Badfield looked like you did an ankle, Luke, Ryan

133
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 2: and James ash Cops knocks like he Shultz hit the

134
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 2: goal post, Alex Peers kind of overstretched himself and there

135
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 2: we Goski. He was probably the main injury. How's everyone

136
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,840
Speaker 2: sort of coming off.

137
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 4: Going well, yeah, well, I'm more concerned about the oppostadium goalpost.

138
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 4: Have they straightened that yet? After Lock he hit it, Yeah,

139
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 4: we smashed it like he's saying, nuggety. Yeah, But he

140
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 4: got half and he was fine, so that's good. A

141
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 4: lot of our guys ankle guys, Ryan, Banfield, Pierce. I

142
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 4: think we'll see how he gets through training. They're pretty

143
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 4: sore and so from Salves early in the week, but

144
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 4: we have a longer break this week, so that's nice

145
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 4: that we get a bit more time.

146
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 3: Into those guys.

147
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 4: So Kowski will obviously miss was a pretty big needs

148
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 4: at the back of the car is pretty crazy, So yeah,

149
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 4: he'll enter the twelve day concushion protocol and see how

150
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 4: he goes. But as I mentioned before, we had six

151
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 4: go out, so it's a really healthy position that we're

152
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 4: in where we if we lose a few people, we're

153
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 4: confident that we got the cattle.

154
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: The young girl from north was looking quite despondent that

155
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: he hit semiswk. He was very quite sad at it.

156
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, Francis himself. Yeah, and it was flush, wasn't it

157
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 4: in the middle of.

158
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 3: The back of his head.

159
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: So he's gone for the streamer.

160
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, got pretty hard to get his knee.

161
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 2: You know, just before we go to break. There was

162
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 2: one thing that really stood out about the game, the

163
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 2: chant from the crowd about halfway through the game. Yeah,

164
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 2: it's like it's like, I don't know if it just

165
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 2: sort of dawned on them, Hey we have got a

166
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 2: real chance here for the year.

167
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: They just went berserk.

168
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 2: What does that feel like when you're down there playing?

169
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 2: Is that is that gratifying?

170
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 3: Is it? It's just really cool?

171
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 4: It's really nice, to be honest, it's the Mexican wave

172
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 4: started up as well.

173
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.

174
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 4: Will Brody actually has mentioned it a few times, but

175
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 4: he played twenty odd games at Gold Coast, so not

176
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 4: many people there and all that kind of stuff. And

177
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 4: one of our first games this year we had maybe

178
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 4: twenty eight thousand people at Opts and after the game

179
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 4: in the showers, he was just like, man, how.

180
00:06:59,360 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 3: Good is that?

181
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 4: So loud opt sat him is insane. Our fans are

182
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 4: so noisy and passionate. It's like that's clewe his mind. Yeah,

183
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 4: and I remember saying to him like, oh mate, if

184
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 4: we go all right, it'll get crazy a little louder.

185
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

186
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 4: So yeah, we plan the best stadium in Australia with

187
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 4: some of the greatest fans. So yeah, if we can

188
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 4: pack it out and give will those kind of experiences

189
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 4: as much as we can, that'd be good.

190
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: But we want to experience that thing during the last

191
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: quarter of the prelim in twenty thirteen. It's sub Oval

192
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: against Sydney when we were yeah, yeah, crazy stuff. We

193
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: want to talk about a Rising Star nomination and nominee

194
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: and it's he's Chapman from Freeo with a member the

195
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: Spider like arms. He's got long arms and young fell, hasn't.

196
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 3: He He does.

197
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's very long limbed and he's doing a great job.

198
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 4: He's hasn't played much footing yet to be honest for

199
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 4: us obviously with the Rising Star nomination, but he has

200
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 4: a very bright future and he's very important part of

201
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 4: our system.

202
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 3: Now.

203
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 2: The Docors currently sit second on the AFL ladder and

204
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 2: this week is kind a new word flag mantle.

205
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, what's going on there?

206
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 3: Really?

207
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 2: Flag mantle?

208
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it's all what do you think of that?

209
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 4: Well, it's really nice to be in a position where

210
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 4: these kind of things pop up, I guess.

211
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 3: And you mentioned the crowd.

212
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: Some fans we've got tattooed already with flag mantle.

213
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 3: I hope they haven't pretty years to that.

214
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: There's no year on there, but it is. I think

215
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: it's on their thighs, isn't.

216
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 3: That it could be added to? Yeah?

217
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 4: Well, as I said, it's really nice to be in

218
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 4: a position where we're giving our fans hope. It's been

219
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 4: a fairly bleak period and over the last couple of years,

220
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 4: I think the signs of growth have really been there.

221
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 4: But to have the start of the year that we

222
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 4: have has been really promising. We have some really big

223
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 4: challenges in the next month, I think in front of us,

224
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 4: but yeah, we're really we're really confident that our system

225
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 4: stacks up.

226
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't want to just jump over the Gold

227
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 1: Coast game because that's this week and we will talk

228
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: about it, but that thing and the Eagles are going

229
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: through it right now. With Melbourne and Brisbane and consecutive weeks,

230
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: that's a real test, isn't it.

231
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

232
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 4: I think they're the clear benchmarks of the competition, particularly Melbourne.

233
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 4: They looks like they're doing it easy at the moment

234
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,599
Speaker 4: and we've got ten goals every week. Yeah, it'd be

235
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 4: interesting to see how we get to that point in

236
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 4: terms of personnel and things like that. A lot can

237
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 4: change in a couple of weeks. So, as you mentioned,

238
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 4: Gold Coast this week is a really difficult and tricky

239
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 4: venue to play because the weather and it's quite wet

240
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 4: up there this weekend. And they beat Sydney on the

241
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 4: weekend in Sydney, so they're going to be a great challenge.

242
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

243
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: Will Brody's intelligence important this week?

244
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, taking him back to his hometown. Yeah, how you go?

245
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 2: So it's a decent trip to the Gold Coast. How

246
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 2: do you go about getting there? Do you fly to

247
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 2: Brisbane and then get on a bus and go to

248
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 2: the Gold Coast.

249
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 3: Or do you sometimes where direct to Gold Coast this week? Oh?

250
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 2: Director Coast?

251
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 3: That's nice yep.

252
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, how do you think you'll go against the Suns?

253
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,719
Speaker 2: They are currently thirteenth yep, so.

254
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, well they're playing a bit more direct this year

255
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 4: against Sydney. They really beat Sydney up around the contest,

256
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 4: which is hard to do. A very good contested team,

257
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 4: and they've got guys like Oazac Rankin in their team

258
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 4: who can who is just a freaking can turn it on.

259
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 4: And obviously two Millers through the midfield and Maddie Rowe,

260
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 4: two very very good players. So yeah, it's going to

261
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 4: be it's going to be a really tough day for us,

262
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 4: I think around the contest and as I said, it's

263
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 4: been raining up in Brisbane and Gold Coast all week.

264
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,119
Speaker 1: Yeah.

265
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 4: Our Sunday Day game looks like it might be clear,

266
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 4: but a pretty heavy deck and the way they like

267
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 4: to play, it's going to be a great challenge.

268
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, they messed up a lot of people sipping this

269
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: week because most people big Sydney for that game, didn't

270
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: they What about big tabs? How's the Haw's the Hammi guing?

271
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: He's okay?

272
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's gonna be progressing through it hopefully maybe next

273
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 4: week speaking Yeah, yeah, Maddie, he's he's an old professional.

274
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 3: He's crazy how he goes preparation.

275
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's as I think I've said it before, but

276
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 4: sometimes to his detriment, he rarely pushes it. And but

277
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 4: I think in a really good way. He's grown from

278
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 4: a really skinny, reedy rookie pick, really specy pick to

279
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 4: be a huge man for us and really reliable and

280
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 4: dependable key forward, which are hard.

281
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 3: Fine.

282
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 2: There's a fun stat that people have been talking about

283
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 2: for two weeks now about how many people you have

284
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 2: to play in front of. Before you've played in front

285
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 2: of eleven million people. Now it's down to fifteen thousand,

286
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty nine people that you have to

287
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 2: play in front of. But Gold Coast doesn't get huge attendances.

288
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 2: So I like the fact that it might not happen

289
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 2: this weekend, and it will happen more likely at home

290
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 2: against Collingwood. Yeah, that's going to be huge.

291
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 4: I'd love it if they if that did happen and

292
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 4: they tracked who was the eleventh million?

293
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 3: Yeah?

294
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And you've got a dollar for everyone else ever watched.

295
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: We've loaded good luck against Gold Coast mate, and we

296
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: will catch up with you see how things are going

297
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: after round nine.

298
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 3: Thank you guys.

299
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: And then from the Freemantle Doctors, David Monday joining us
