1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Ninety six airms on West Coast.

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 2: Egor, Elliot, Yo, Good morning, Elliott bad.

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: Good morning? Here are you going good? Has your head

4
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: getting better?

5
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:16,760
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that in a moment. Port Adelaide dumped

6
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 2: the Eagles by eighty four points in Adelaide on Saturday. Teams,

7
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 2: your first quarter performance was okay, scores will level at

8
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 2: the first break, and then what happened?

9
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: The flood gats open unfortunately, So yeah, it was the

10
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: effort was unacceptable and we don't really have any excuses,

11
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,160
Speaker 1: but we have to be back to the drawing board

12
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 1: and obviously get better. You know, it starts by getting

13
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 1: on the track and work it hard and working together.

14
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: But we know that the position that we're in is

15
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 1: an ideal. But you know, we don't like to lose games,

16
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 1: and we don't like to lose games in the manner

17
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: that we are as well. So yeah, we want to

18
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: try and reclify that as quick as possible.

19
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 3: Elliott personally, mate, I want to wrap up some luck

20
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 3: and posted old school started at your place because the

21
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 3: last couple of years has been There's a lot going

22
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 3: on in your footy related world, isn't there? And the

23
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 3: weekend was just another example of that. Can you talk

24
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 3: us through what happened? Because you look frustrated early and

25
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 3: all of a sudden had the egg on your face.

26
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, good luck would be nice. Yeah, and then that

27
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 1: hasn't been the best run unfortunately with injuries and yeah,

28
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: I mean probably, I'm a passionate player and sometimes all

29
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: let my passion get the better of me at stages,

30
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: and you probably saw the frustration at certain points. So yea,

31
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: you know I need to get better in that as well.

32
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: But unfortunately, you know, before I could do anything or

33
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: before I could change anything like that, I was out

34
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: with concussions. So it was an ideal.

35
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 2: There's not much you can do from there. Inside fifties

36
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 2: or a bit of an issue. On Saturday it was

37
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: sixty five to thirty four. In the week before it

38
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: was sixty five to twenty nine. So is that something

39
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: the team is concentrating on.

40
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: It is, Yeah, it's something we've been sort of trying

41
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: to work on over the past couple of years as well.

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: We have been sort of known as benefficient when we've

43
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: gone inside fifty, but this year is certainly letting us

44
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: down as well. You know, we need to get the

45
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: ball to affords as much as we can and get

46
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 1: supplied to JD and JK and a few others. So yeah,

47
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 1: we need to get the ball in there as much

48
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: as we can, and I guess that starts with them,

49
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: we feel as well.

50
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 3: But how hard is it to get settled in a

51
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 3: season when you've got so many players coming and going

52
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: every week and we know that there's been a lot

53
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 3: of bad like there and I know that you you know,

54
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 3: Sam and the players are going, okay, well, we've got

55
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 3: to work on several things to work on, but it

56
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 3: must be very frustrating.

57
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is as frustrating. It's difficult as well. Yet

58
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 1: any sort of continuity, I think probably the best year

59
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: that we had in terms of running for injuries, I

60
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: think might have been eight A, so I think, you know,

61
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: we only had the odd one or two pop out there,

62
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,839
Speaker 1: and we have the sort of the same side plan

63
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: most weeks, so definitely helps. But unfortunately that's not the

64
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: case for us at the moment, and we just need

65
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: to look at the positives as well. And I think

66
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 1: the positives that that has been the inn is that

67
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 1: we're getting experience into a lot of the younger guys

68
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: as well. Now, which will be beneficial in the long

69
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: run for US.

70
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 2: Before Saturday, the Eagles had a five zip winning record

71
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 2: against Port in Adelaide. If you want to talk about

72
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 2: being disappointed at streaks ending, talk to the Wildcats. But nonetheless,

73
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 2: that's a bit of a shame to have a blemish

74
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 2: on the record.

75
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,799
Speaker 1: It is. Yeah, we have some pretty good memories that

76
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: at laid Over we have we had sort of spoken

77
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: about and externally as well. It was pretty much everywhere

78
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: that we had a good record.

79
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 4: I did the.

80
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: Podcast earlier in the week as well, so I knew

81
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: the record going in because it came up. But yeah,

82
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: I mean when you go into games and once that

83
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: balls down, so you don't really think about those things.

84
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: But it would have been great to keep it that way.

85
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, unfortunately, why.

86
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 2: Is that laide Over your favorite over to play on?

87
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 3: What is early?

88
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: It meant it's pretty good. Yeah, the grounds came there

89
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: is definitely doing a good job.

90
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 2: Do you know your lawn, of course.

91
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: It's always in very good condition.

92
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 3: Okay, well, we've got more to talk about. Just before

93
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 3: we get a break mate with your face, So you've

94
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 3: got to swell face. It really swallowed so quickly, man,

95
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 3: how long before that swelling goes down? You were an

96
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 3: ice pack straight on that? What's the story?

97
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: Yes, it's still puffy and a bit fat today, so

98
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 1: starting to get a black eye commentary as well, which

99
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 1: is which is great. So the bleeding starting to come out,

100
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: but yet still feel like I've sort of been hit

101
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 1: on the side of the face.

102
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 3: And fortunately it was very loody tunes.

103
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure I heard something.

104
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:47,119
Speaker 3: Goes how man of the Eagles is Elliott? You second

105
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 3: bottom from the ladder at the moment, But I guess

106
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 3: there's someone an Eagles fancy to me this morning. The

107
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 3: only way is.

108
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: Up, Bud. That's right, that's right, So positive thinking exactly exactly.

109
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: But yeah, we're working to get better and hopefully we

110
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: can shuffle on up all right.

111
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 2: Friday night football adoptus playing Richmond bounce downs at six ten.

112
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 2: Because you were subbed out with concussion, you automatically won't

113
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 2: play this Friday, will you?

114
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: No? Unfortunately, so that the concussion protocols in place.

115
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 4: So yeah, as much as you know, I'd love to play,

116
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 4: it's unfortunate and at the moment I'm not feeling that great,

117
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 4: So yeah, probably the best thing.

118
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 2: There's also still some COVID cases floating around.

119
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: I believe there is yet I've sort of been away

120
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: from the club, which I'm sort of not really over

121
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 1: at all unfortunately, but yeah, I mean it's it's still

122
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: sort of going around, and I'm sure that you know,

123
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: the players and the staff are doing everything possible as

124
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: well to try and mitigate that, but unfortunately, it is

125
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: what it is, and you can't sort of top COVID.

126
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 3: Mate. One of your teammates, Jack Patrick Kelly has been

127
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 3: very full of praise for a Waffle Legal team mate

128
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 3: and Greg Clark and Greg might get to mature age

129
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 3: draft team might get to play this weekend. You never know.

130
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw a little bit of the Waffle game

131
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: as well. I saw that Clarky and pet was sort

132
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: of playing pretty well. So yeah, I'm hopeful that you know,

133
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: they might get an opportunity, but team selection isn't up

134
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: to me. So yeah, I'll be watching you watching with

135
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: a keen eye, and you're trying to listen in closely

136
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: and seeing if I can sort of pick up on

137
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: anything that the coach or coaches are sort of speaking about,

138
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: and hopefully that they get their opportunity or Clarkie gets

139
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: his opportunity and pitch and slop back in. So they've

140
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: been doing everything right. So we do that generally you

141
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: get rewarded.

142
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, Clark he's had a lot of success. That's successful

143
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 3: rain there at SOB with all those waffle flags, So

144
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 3: good luck to he.

145
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: Has he has.

146
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,359
Speaker 2: I think it's gross having said team selections not up

147
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 2: to you. And also I know it's only Tuesday, but

148
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 2: what are the chances of Gaff returning from injury and

149
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 2: being back after COVID Yeah.

150
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: I think Yeah, we'll have main training I think is Saday,

151
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: so the boys will be running around probably in the

152
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: next couple of hours or so. So I'm assuming that

153
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: if they get through and they feel fine, then I'm

154
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: sure that the selectors and CINEO and everyone else will

155
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: be picking them and put them straight in. So yeah,

156
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: it's one of those things. If they if they pull

157
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: up good and they're happy without their body's feeling, then

158
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: I'm sure they'll be here.
