1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,960
Speaker 1: Jumps with Jones and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 2: I certainly push you to your limits on Essays, whether

3
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 2: you're tired, saw a breaking point, worried about urine on

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,719
Speaker 2: the toilet seat. But when a rib pops out, even

5
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 2: the toughest need to know when to call it quits,

6
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 2: and that includes Barry Hall. That's what he did last night.

7
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,920
Speaker 2: He left Essays Australia, but he's joining us right now.

8
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: Hello Barry, good morning guys.

9
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 3: Nice to you.

10
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: Always great to talk to you, Barry. So couldn't you

11
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,319
Speaker 1: talk to your rib and say, hang on, it's not

12
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: your time to shine mate, to stay there in the page.

13
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 3: I wish you would have that. Yeah, it was just

14
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 3: one of those freak accident things that, yeah, it's just that,

15
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 3: as they say in the army, as An Middleton told me,

16
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 3: it's just not your time. So you know, I went

17
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 3: back to obviously did the injury, and then it went

18
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 3: back to see if I could sort of cope with

19
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 3: it and then try to put the back take on

20
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 3: and off a few times, and it's just even to

21
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 3: get that on and off was a struggle. So to

22
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 3: do the rest of the course would have been, you know,

23
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 3: a real push for me. I didn't want to sort

24
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 3: of back there, so trying to cover quids.

25
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,680
Speaker 2: We're talking just earlier, Barry about you speaking about your

26
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 2: anger management and how you've really worked on yourself in

27
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 2: recent years.

28
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 3: Uh.

29
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 2: And then you know we played a clip of at

30
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 2: Middleton and the other DS is screaming in everyone's faces. Yeah,

31
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 2: channel the Red Mist. It's such mixed messages for civilians

32
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: like us to see, and it's quite confronting.

33
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, and look in fairness around you know there's

34
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 3: times where tall upon that you need that in hand

35
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 3: to hand combat, and obviously in the situations there we

36
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 3: should really stream. But you know, for me going in there,

37
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 3: and as you alluded to, I've done a lot of

38
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 3: work on myself, and to actually put it all to

39
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 3: test under a high pressure situation, which is exactly what

40
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 3: SAS is that's always under pressure, was a real blessing

41
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 3: because you know, I come out, I didn't lose the plot,

42
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 3: I didn't get angry, you know, I didn't get frustrated,

43
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,559
Speaker 3: and I didn't lash out at anyone or do anything

44
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 3: silly like I did on the footy field. So you know,

45
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 3: all that work I've been doing has certainly paid off,

46
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 3: and I also understand what it was saying that you

47
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 3: need to call upon Rose at times. But I'm at

48
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 3: the point of my life where I don't really need

49
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 3: to do anymore. You know, I've sort of moved on

50
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 3: from the person that I was and of a new man.

51
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: But your anger largely manifested on the footy field, didn't

52
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: It wasn't like we ever heard of you having crazy

53
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: stories off the footy field.

54
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you didn't hear about them.

55
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: But anything you want to divulge about.

56
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 3: It was very much competitive environments. You know, I'm very,

57
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 3: very cruising off the field, but in a competitive environment, yeah,

58
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 3: I wasn't a very nice person, so you know, it

59
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 3: was win at all cross and I didn't care what

60
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 3: I did, so you know, that's a great mindset to have.

61
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 3: But there's a line across and I crossed it seventy times, so.

62
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, at least you didn't cross that line when you

63
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 2: know there was we on the toilet seat.

64
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 3: Well, I just don't think it's that hard to point

65
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 3: aim and did it in the toilet. I don't think

66
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 3: it's that hard. And if you do, I understand mistakes happen.

67
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,239
Speaker 3: If you do, just wipe it up. I'm bit of

68
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 3: a clean for a guys. You can probably tell. Yeah,

69
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 3: I'm very very clean.

70
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 1: So even in the essays, come on, guys, you're the

71
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,119
Speaker 1: face of a national campaign. Mothers everywhere will be rejoicing.

72
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: And also baby number three that was young Samson, who's

73
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: now three months old, so you now have three kids.

74
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, it was a bit of a It's an

75
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 3: amazing story actually. So I got out of the show

76
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 3: and obviously popped the red and we're in Sydney at

77
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 3: the time when it was filming, when it was at

78
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 3: the height of COVID. Cod has played happy little lot

79
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 3: of people and so Lauren was about to pop any day.

80
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 3: We knew yelling in there that it was very likely

81
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 3: that I was going to miss the birth of Samson.

82
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 3: So we had to go back to the border. So

83
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 3: I went back to King Cliff, you know, in New

84
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 3: South Wales, and I had to stay there for fourteen

85
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 3: days before we put in exemptions and tried to get

86
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 3: home quicker and I just wasn't working at that stage.

87
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 3: We finally got an exemption and then we got back

88
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 3: over the border. But the restrictions were they had the

89
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 3: home quarantine and when Lauren was going into labor. I

90
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 3: could drive her to the hospital. I wasn't latter in there,

91
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 3: which is fair enough because I know a lot of

92
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 3: a lot of other people. You know, there's been deaths

93
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 3: in the family. They to in go to feundors and

94
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 3: all those sorts of things. So you can't win about

95
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 3: in my situation. So Lauren went into labor, and it

96
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 3: was very early in the morning. I put all the

97
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 3: boys in the car. I took her to the hospital.

98
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 3: I walked to the front, the big sliding doors, sliding

99
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 3: doors open. I'm like, well, this is it. Good luck

100
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 3: pretty much, and the hand her over to the midwife.

101
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: She gave birth in reception light in front of me,

102
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: right well, right there, right there. It was unbelievable. It

103
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 3: was just I'm not a big boy in the whodo

104
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 3: and the you know, the crystals and the universe and

105
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 3: all that sort of stuff, but it was just it

106
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 3: was absolutely meant to be.

107
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: So were you part of the birth then?

108
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 3: Pretty much? I was probably three meters away. I was

109
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 3: sliding doors between us, and then I was like, I

110
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 3: don't really care. So I went in held the baby

111
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 3: and I was a very very bad father. So the

112
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 3: boys I had to keep in in the car out

113
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 3: on the road. I could see them. I was going

114
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 3: to drop and then go back to them, and then

115
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 3: we got them out of the car, and everyone's sort

116
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 3: of so that it was a beautiful moment in the

117
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 3: reception of the hospital. And then so we got to

118
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 3: spend sort of five minutes and then we jumped back

119
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 3: in in the in the car and had to leave.

120
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 4: Which was fd But what a story about it. Just

121
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 4: a great story that is amazing, And I just can't

122
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 4: said Lauren. She went through the doors and then she said,

123
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 4: and then the baby just happened.

124
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 3: Yeah. So they were going to get her a little

125
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 3: chair because without sounding too I think the head was

126
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 3: starting to pull out, and she said, I can't sit

127
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 3: down the head. I'm going to sit on his head.

128
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden just come out and

129
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 3: she actually caught it, caught Samson herself. So wow, it

130
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 3: was amazing. It just happened so so quick.

131
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 2: Samson wanted you to be there.

132
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 3: What yeah, yeah, And in Pennis, twenty seconds earlier, we

133
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 3: would have had the baby in the car. That just

134
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 3: happened that quick.

135
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,240
