Congratulations on your speech 32 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 2: at the National Press Club. You spoke about your struggles 33 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 2: with chronic dramatic and philopathy or etc. As it caused, 34 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 2: but you said it so eloquently. 35 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 4: Wally. Yeah, well I was pretty happy. It was a 36 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 4: situation where I was asked to just talk about the 37 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 4: life and how it certainly had changed. I'd gone from 38 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 4: a pretty confident bloake that was always enjoying myself doing 39 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 4: the news and sports news pretty much every day at 40 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 4: Channel nine, and it got to the stage where I 41 00:01:54,720 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 4: was having some jews that I was probably wrecking forget illness, 42 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 4: and with almost monotonous regularity, having people sort of have 43 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 4: that look, that look of confusion of frown on their 44 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 4: face when they're probably talking to you about something else. 45 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,119 Speaker 4: I'd forgotten what we were talking about, and it made 46 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 4: it a bit of an embarrassment and yet kind of 47 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 4: hide from it. For quite some time and almost make 48 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 4: a bit of a giggle out of it and say, 49 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 4: I've had a tough night and I've been on the 50 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 4: drink and heads not working too well this morning. But 51 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 4: certainly there was the case and when I found that 52 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 4: it wasn't going too well, particularly at work. There was 53 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 4: one occasion where I was told that I was coming 54 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 4: back from a story and I was to throw to 55 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 4: the people that I was reading the news with and 56 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 4: I forgot all about it. I just couldn't get it 57 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 4: in and the embarrassment that that presented just to send 58 00:02:59,200 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 4: to Snowble. 59 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 3: Were you relieved to have a diagnosis of some. 60 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 4: Kind, Yes, and no. At least I knew what the 61 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 4: difficulties were why I was struggling, but pretty much embarrassed to, 62 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 4: you know, to have to deal with it. It wasn't 63 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 4: it wasn't something that I wanted to proudly have beside 64 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 4: my name. But I think the biggest difficulty was was 65 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 4: when it was explained to me by the doctors what 66 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 4: it's all about. And after the diagnosis, they said, it's 67 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 4: something that we can't cure. CTE is not curable. We 68 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 4: can prevent it, and the doctors certainly helping with the 69 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 4: medication to treat the symptoms such as anxiety or depression. 70 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 4: But certainly it really does create a lot of dramas 71 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 4: in many families and for a lot of people also, 72 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 4: it can also cause a bit of a domestic violence. 73 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 4: And I think that it comes around a little bit 74 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 4: through the dis point of admitting that you're you're having 75 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 4: some real issues with it and you're not really sure 76 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 4: which way that you're hitting what direction, and it's it's difficult. 77 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 4: We don't seek sympathy or you know, we're asking for 78 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 4: for a little bit of help, But it just seems 79 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 4: that the amount of people that are dealing with it 80 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 4: is snowballing at an absolutely unbelievable rate. 81 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 2: Well, at least we're getting awareness about a new sound. Look, 82 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,119 Speaker 2: you're on top of it, which is which is great. 83 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 4: Well, let's getting some good advice. 84 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 2: Let's get to the footy tips. Dolphins versus the Eagles. 85 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 2: What do you think tonight? 86 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 4: Look, this one's really tough playing at home. I think 87 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 4: the Dolphins deserve to be your favorites. Fourth versus fift 88 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 4: in this one, I've tip the Dolphins, but no, no 89 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 4: great confidence. I'll stick with the Dolphins only with home 90 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 4: grown advantage. 91 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 3: Playing up all right, and then Friday we've got Panthers 92 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 3: and Bulldogs. 93 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is going to be a beauty. Nathan Clear 94 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 4: is back Penrith. They're going to return to their best. 95 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 4: The Doggies have been good this year, but I think 96 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 4: the Panthers, You've got to back them at pant at 97 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 4: Penrith Stadium. 98 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 2: Eels versus the Broncos. 99 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 4: Neither was in great form. The Broncos have got plenty 100 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 4: of blokes out, Adam Randalls out for the year and look, 101 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 4: I'm gonna go for the Broncos. I'm looking at the bookies. 102 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 4: They're virtually giving the Yels no hope at all. Three 103 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 4: bucks or three dollars ten or something and Brisbane a 104 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 4: favorites only because they're playing at home. And Brisbone I 105 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 4: got quite a few blokes out. Look, I'll stick with 106 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 4: them with a home great advantage, but with no great 107 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 4: confidence at all. 108 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: It could be a good bet. Tigers versus Knights. 109 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, you go with the Knights and this one the 110 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 4: Tigers they're looking a lot better this year. Benji seems 111 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 4: to have inspired him. 112 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 3: But I'll go with Newcastle and then Dragons and the 113 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 3: rabbit Os. 114 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 4: We listen, this is a big one. Dragons. Rabbit O's 115 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 4: have had a hoary poor blokes. You know there's blokes 116 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 4: getting dropped. Won't be there change of coaches coming up. 117 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 4: I'll stick with the Dragons, all right. 118 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 3: Storm the Sharks. 119 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 4: The match of the no doubt about that. I'll go 120 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 4: with Melbourne only because they're playing at home. If they 121 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 4: were playing at Cronulla, right, tips at the Sharks seven 122 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 4: days a week. But the Storm in Melbourne, all. 123 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 3: Right, Roosters and Worries on Sunday. 124 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 4: Cookies are fantastic. They're in good form, like the way 125 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 4: that they're going. So I'll stick with them in that. 126 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 3: One, all right.

I'll go with the Cowboys. I think 130 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 4: they'll get home, but it'll be a nice tight affair here. 131 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 2: Well, Wally or Walter, that's your real name? 132 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 4: If it is Walter, I still haven't forgiven my parents 133 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 4: for giving me that name.
