Speaker 2: the first game of the season. It's not your first rodeo.

15
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,640

16
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 2: played before feeling?

17
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 4: Ah, they're excited. Yeah, I think everyone else is as well.

18
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 4: We're all bouncing off the walls, fresh fiber around the

19
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 4: football club. So new game plan that we want to implement.

20
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 4: So yeah, it's exciting.

21
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. The sons that were met to play this weekend,

22
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 3: but because of a certain cyclone they didn't, But I

23
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 3: could have didn't get a bit of running their legs. Yeah,

24
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 3: but it's probably a good test first up at home.

25
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: It is.

26
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is, and go obviously trying to push for

27
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 4: finals and have been now for a couple of years,

28
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 4: so they've got a lot writing on it, and so

29
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 4: do we.

30
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: We've got a point to prove.

31
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 2: Now. First question Andrew mcqualter, is that how we say

32
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 2: his name mcqualters? How's he going?

33
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: You just call him? Calls him Mini?

34
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 3: Do you know where mini came from?

35
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 1: Nah? No idea? How I probably should ask him?

36
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 3: Actually you know it's Disney or something.

37
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, no, No, it's it's he's been fun, energetic

38
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 4: around the football club, brought a lot of good vibes,

39
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 4: new game plan that we want to implement, as saying before,

40
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 4: So yeah, look it's it's certainly a bit different to

41
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 4: how things have been previously for the past ten or

42
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 4: so years with Simo, but yeah, it's looking back now,

43
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 4: it's it's been great and it's been a fresh change.

44
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 3: Isn't it funny to see Simo now not in the job.

45
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 3: He seems to have a to say about the Eagles.

46
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 3: Has his role and media.

47
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 4: Media, but I always thought he was going to do

48
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 4: that anyway. He speaks very well, so I would have

49
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 4: thought that he'd fit into media quite well. And he's transitioned. Yeah,

50
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 4: to be honest, I reckon in Fox forty, I reckon

51
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 4: he's going to kill it.

52
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 3: He's absolutely kill it with Andrew McWalter just quickly. He's

53
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 3: been quite realistic as well, hasn't he with these expectations.

54
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 4: He has, Yeah, which I think is you know, he's

55
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 4: been pretty honest and transparent about where where we're going

56
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 4: as a football club and.

57
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 2: A list, So no point in being otherwise.

58
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: No exactly positive, correct, it is what it is, yeah.

59
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,559
Speaker 4: Correct, but also you probably don't want to give unrealistic

60
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 4: exactly exactly so, and we know.

61
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 1: The journey that we're on now and where we're going towards.

62
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 4: So that's I guess the exciting part of it and

63
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 4: being a part of that journey now that things are

64
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 4: completely changed and it's it's a fresh fiber, as I said,

65
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 4: around football club, and we're keen to get going and

66
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 4: hopefully in a couple of years time or this year

67
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,639
Speaker 4: we can we can play some finals footy and get

68
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 4: as much experience into the younger kids as quick as possible.

69
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 2: He is a little inspired by Hawthorn's the way, you know,

70
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: the way Hawthorne turned itself around in.

71
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: The last year or so.

72
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 2: So I think he thinks that, you know, there's exactly

73
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 2: the same could happen here.

74
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, well footy is a very very quick game and

75
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 4: things change very fast. So yeah, I think if there's

76
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 4: you get a few wins under the belt. It's funny

77
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 4: how belief can change, I guess the mentality of a squad.

78
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 4: I think Hawthorne probably did that last year and then

79
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 4: started to believe a little bit and all of a

80
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 4: sudden got a fair bit of confidence, started playing some

81
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 4: really good football, consistent football, and then all of a

82
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 4: sudden they're you know, pushing for finals.

83
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 2: So it's like they remembered, Hey, where Hawthorne a good team?

84
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 4: Yeah they are so but again they've got some fantastic

85
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 4: people behind them and so it a we So I

86
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 4: guess that's gives us a fair bit of confidence going for.

87
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 3: I've got to say it just looks weird seeing Tom

88
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: barrass in their jumper, because I just thought he was

89
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 3: going to be for reasons.

90
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, he played well though.

91
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 3: Yeah it's bloody good. Yeah, yeah, it's.

92
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,119
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, so no, look it's it is sad, sae, Yeah,

93
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 4: it is sad. Saying same will be for Jack as well.

94
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 4: He's what two games I think from three hundred, so yeah,

95
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 4: I mean you'd love to one of my good mates

96
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 4: at the football club. You'd love to cheer him off

97
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 4: for his three hundredths and clap him off, but unfortunately

98
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 4: it's not the case.

99
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 2: You got an old Jack and a young Jack in

100
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: Jack Graham, a newbie. Well is he likely to play

101
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 2: this weekend? Who's likely to make their you know, debut?

102
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 4: I would have thought it'd be pretty similar to the

103
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 4: team that fronted up against North, so yeah, it's one

104
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 4: of one or two changes.

105
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, we're still five days away.

106
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 4: We've still got a fair bit of main training to

107
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 4: go through two or three sessions, so yeah, the match

108
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 4: committee would probably still be Am and Aron about a

109
00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 4: few players. So yeah, it's at this stage over my head.

110
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 3: Good to see Baker out there, mate. He's a bloody

111
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 3: god football and he's your tough nugget, isn't he is?

112
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: Yeah?

113
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 2: He is.

114
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 4: I think he's won two flags at Richmond, so yeah, yeah,

115
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 4: great player, good leader as well. Obviously voted in him

116
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 4: and Fridge we call him Jack Graham, so yeah, they both.

117
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 5: Say Fridge his nickname wife Fridge. It's a great question. Cold, No,

118
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 5: is he solid? Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, he's a solid bloke.

119
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 4: But yeah, great, great acquisitions I think for the football

120
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 4: club and great leaders so and knowing many as well.

121
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 4: Before that, it's he's obviously brought over a few things

122
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 4: that they all sort of know, so being able to

123
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 4: help teach the younger kids coming through as well, he's

124
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:46,280
Speaker 4: been fantastic.

125
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: Who's going to kick more goals this season?

126
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 2: Jake Waterman or Oscar Allen or Elliot?

127
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 1: I'd love to say anyone's allowed to kick like netfall.

128
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 4: A couple of easy ones over the top, goal square,

129
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 4: perfect when you're resting forward.

130
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: But to be fair, Jake or Oscar, it's going to

131
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 1: be good in it. It's like a good internal battle,

132
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: really true.

133
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 2: It's a good problem to have.

134
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,679
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, exactly, so I reckon they'll probably take turns

135
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: as well.

136
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 4: He will go deepest, so it all depends on when

137
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 4: the ball gets down there. I'd like to say, Oscar.

138
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 4: I think, you know, Jake's had a really good year,

139
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 4: but Oscar has had a few tough years, So hopefully

140
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 4: he can get some runs and goals on the board

141
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 4: to give him some confidence and yeah, make him sort

142
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 4: of the player that we all believe him to be,

143
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 4: which is, you know, he's an absolute freak.

144
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 3: It's hard to beat Waterman's year last year after what

145
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 3: he'd been through.

146
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 1: It is, Yeah, it is.

147
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 3: You've seen you know the squad, you know the boys

148
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 3: and all the rest of it, and you've seen some

149
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 3: young guys. Is there any smoke he's anyone in that

150
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 3: squad you think might just put their hand up and

151
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 3: really really apply themselves this year.

152
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 1: I think, Look, I think is going to take the

153
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: next step.

154
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 4: So he had a really good year last year, but

155
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 4: I think from things and from what I was seeing

156
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 4: early in pre season, I just think he's going to

157
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 4: take them.

158
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, he is.

159
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 4: I think he's found I get the feeling he found

160
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 4: he's found the I guess, the balance between you know,

161
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 4: locking down and an opponent, but then also trying to

162
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 4: impact a bit.

163
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 1: More as well offensively.

164
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 4: So I'm excited to see how he goes, I think,

165
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 4: And he doesn't probably get the recognition he deserves. So

166
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 4: he's shut down that many good players for us last

167
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 4: year and kept him to you one or two goals

168
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 4: when the ball was in the fifty fair bit.

169
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: So yeah, he's underrated. Player.

170
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 2: I think, all right, let's talk about you, or let's

171
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: talk about you.

172
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: We could call the segment what's the latest on your already.

173
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 4: Haveb Yeah, look I started to run the other week,

174
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 4: so that's positive. But things that you know, like had

175
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 4: two steps towards one step back with all things. So

176
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 4: but you know, nothing major. I'm hoping that I'm still

177
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 4: sort of on the same trajectory. You just get sore

178
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 4: like all things, so you just got to manage it

179
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 4: a bit better and do what you got to do.

180
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 4: So yeah, I'm hopeful that the timeline that the club

181
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 4: set we're still sticking to that.

182
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 3: Can you use a quick window into your world as

183
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 3: a player, and after all those years, what's it like

184
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 3: rocking up to that event, that season launch event you

185
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 3: have to throw the suit on or what have you done?

186
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 3: And is it exciting? Is it? I know it's something

187
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 3: you have to do with the job.

188
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 4: It's exciting if you're playing, yeah, okay, right, if you're not,

189
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 4: you're like, oh, here we go. Yeah right, So and

190
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,240

191
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 4: and you're like, all right, well it's not really my

192
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 4: season launch because I'm a while off so yeah, yeah, yeah,

193
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 4: but you still get to meet and see a lot

194
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 4: of sponsors that that I've known over the years and

195
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 4: got to meet and get a good relationship with it.

196
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,200
