It had a huge success around the world, 330 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 4: number one in Australia, number one in Argentina and France, 331 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 4: six in New Zealand, the list goes on, but it 332 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 4: was kind of ignored in the UK. 333 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 3: What do you think that was. 334 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 6: About, potentially because Original Sin to me when it came 335 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 6: out was not like anything else that all the bands 336 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 6: of our era, if you like, we're all doing it 337 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 6: wasn't sort of a new new way. It was, you know, 338 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 6: it was anything like us. And the lyric wasn't a nice, tidy, 339 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 6: little pop lyric that you go like this soul mom 340 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 6: and dad like this, and it wasn't like that. It 341 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 6: was a bit confronting, especially for people at radio. But 342 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 6: I think that goes to show you a lot about 343 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 6: Australian radio back in back in those years. 344 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 5: That were open mind absolutely, and the UK thing changed 345 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 5: by the time Wembley came around, because it only took 346 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 5: six or seven years and they were men before that. Man, 347 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 5: they in love with the band, weren't they. 348 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, And you know that's right. We were touring constantly 349 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 6: and you know, working like crazy, but it was exciting. 350 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 6: You know, we could we could see, we could see 351 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 6: that how to put it. But back then you didn't 352 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 6: spend your time looking at flat screens. You know, you 353 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 6: got out there and you did it physically most of 354 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 6: the time. You got out there around round and it 355 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 6: wasn't done all online and everything. And so I think 356 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 6: that was a very important part of it too, where 357 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 6: for young guys running around doing all this stuff, it 358 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 6: was exciting. You know. 359 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 4: Well, the Swing one most Popular group and best Album. 360 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 4: Well you won most Popular group and the Swing won 361 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 4: Best Album at the Countdown Awards that year was that 362 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 4: can you remember. 363 00:18:53,160 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 6: Where count almost it was? It was like that, Yeah, 364 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 6: And I think that's another thing too. You had, instead 365 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 6: of the television getting involved with the music industry and 366 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 6: putting the lead singers in front of curtains, which is 367 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 6: what it is now. You know, they hats off to 368 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 6: the ABC and Molly and because they were promoting not 369 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 6: just oddy music, but introducing international music with people playing 370 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 6: live on television. And I look back at that and 371 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 6: I think, you know, you know when there was a groundbreaking. 372 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, and just you know fear. 373 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 6: You know, it was sort of like you know, it's 374 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 6: so hard to imagine now, everything's so you know. 375 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:46,199 Speaker 4: Santo, Yeah, it countdown was an institutees just so awful 376 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 4: to wasn't it was everything? 377 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 3: And of course we didn't have that, you know, only 378 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:51,120 Speaker 3: had a couple of choices. 379 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 6: You know, I think I think I can remember not 380 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 6: just younger people, but you know, families would sit around 381 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 6: and work, n wasn't it. Yeah, And that's hard to 382 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 6: believe all that was going on forty years ago. I 383 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 6: was really unbreaking, actually, but I look at all out 384 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 6: of fire, I think for an excess. I think it 385 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 6: was particularly you know, really fantastic to get that chart 386 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,439 Speaker 6: success obviously at home in Australia, but also in what 387 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 6: i'd call new territories, which were You've got to kind 388 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 6: of understand this a little bit, is that places like 389 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 6: South America you were talking about, Argentina and other places 390 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 6: like that, even Japan to a certain extent, you know 391 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 6: where we've made a couple of videos Ford to Swing 392 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 6: in Japan. We shot the video for Original Sin on 393 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 6: a wharf in Toko, and then we went to the 394 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 6: famous old Buddhist you thousands years old temple in the 395 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 6: middle of Tokyo to shoot I send a message, and 396 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 6: all that experience was sort of leading somewhere for us. 397 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,719 Speaker 6: We began to get the idea that it's not just 398 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 6: having success at home and a slap on the back 399 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 6: and playing a good gig. Short that's great, but it 400 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 6: was we began to realize that we're on the edge 401 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 6: of doing something a bit bigger, and we could keep 402 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 6: If we kept doing what we were doing and didn't 403 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 6: let up and kept going, we might go somewhere really interesting. 404 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 6: And I think that's exactly what happened. 405 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,160 Speaker 4: And that really sums up nineteen eighty four because one 406 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 4: of the first shows you did in nineteen eighty four 407 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 4: was it The Generator in moll Leans. Next minute you're 408 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 4: on the road doing a full world tour, and then 409 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 4: came back and wrapped it up with some shows at 410 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 4: the Entertainment Center in September. 411 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 3: I mean, that's quite the juxtapit. 412 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 6: Thank you, I get it. I mean we'd been playing 413 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 6: around in the late seventies as the Faris Brothers in 414 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 6: West Australia. Actually we ran out of gigs to play 415 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 6: because I think the promoters didn't want us to play 416 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 6: our own songs. They wanted us to play covers because 417 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 6: to the bar hotels. Right. So that's why we left 418 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,200 Speaker 6: Western Show, not because we didn't love being then, but 419 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 6: because you know, that was what it was like back then. 420 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 6: I hope it's not that way anymore, but that was 421 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 6: what it was like back then, and so that's one 422 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 6: of all I can say is that shows you you've 423 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 6: got when you when you set out to do the impossible, 424 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 6: keep going. You just never know. 425 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, you had a manager who was You're 426 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 5: all on the same page, weren't you, because Murphy wanted 427 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 5: to take you to the world and do everything it 428 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 5: could to make you big stars. And it worked because 429 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 5: we're on the same page. 430 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 6: Yeah. I mean, I think we all worked to make 431 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 6: us at big stars, I guess. But you know, it 432 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 6: doesn't go down well in Australia. We really like to think, 433 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 6: I think you like to think of ourselves as a 434 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 6: sporting nation first, you know, and we just had ant 435 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 6: Ackday go past, and we pay respect to obviously people 436 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 6: who who did extraordinary things under a huge pressure. To 437 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 6: a certain degree, I'm also very proud of us as 438 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 6: Australians doing what we were doing. When we first went 439 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 6: to the US in the early eighties. We go through 440 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 6: radio stations and they go, you guys from. 441 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 5: Austria, Austria. Good one, that's right, Yeah, that's good. 442 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 2: This is before. 443 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 6: Well the Land about that time, and we got a 444 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 6: request from Strop and Delving Delaney to go up to 445 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 6: Kakadu where they were shooting the film Crocodiles, And so 446 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 6: Michael and I thought out there and went out to 447 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 6: the set and met those guys on the set, which 448 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 6: is awesome. And I remember talking to Oxwel about Crocodile's stuff, 449 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 6: which I didn't know that much about then. I still 450 00:23:54,680 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 6: don't know that much about but anyway, and thankfully, but yeah, 451 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 6: it was. It was sort of a really interesting time 452 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 6: in not just for an excess but in the world. 453 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 6: I think we had. I think it had people seriously 454 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 6: trying to work towards if I can just go sideways 455 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 6: from it, work towards peace in the world instead of 456 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 6: other stuff. But interesting time. 457 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 4: I think I think that that tall poppy syndrome that 458 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 4: we were, you know, quite renowned for, is not as 459 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 4: tall these days as it was, but at this time 460 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 4: it was really peak and I never really understood it, 461 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 4: and I always thought it must have been quite hurtful. 462 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 4: Sometimes when it's it felt like people wanted people who 463 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 4: were doing well to fail or try to bring them, yeah, 464 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 4: to just try to bring them down. It's like, well, 465 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 4: I don't know. It was that that Australian sort of 466 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 4: thing of who do you think you are? Or you know, 467 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 4: don't get too big for your boots? Did you find that? 468 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 6: Well? Yes, but I'll say that with empathy to over 469 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 6: Australian artists before and after us who've gone off to 470 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 6: try and do similar things. A lot of it isn't 471 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 6: a lot of them live overseas. Is exactly what you 472 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 6: just said. 473 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, but you talked about your work I think, 474 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 5: and not being afraid of hard work, in fact thriving 475 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 5: on it. Would you have broken America? Do you think 476 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 5: if you didn't do what you guys did, and that 477 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 5: is relentless touring like Credit House and the Oils did 478 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 5: just after you and the similar times, would that have 479 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 5: happened for you? Or because Chisel didn't do it and 480 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 5: they didn't crack America? 481 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 6: I won't be specific, but I think the best way 482 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 6: I can say is I don't know that much about 483 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 6: you know or or creative houses, touring schedules in those years. 484 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 6: I don't really know, to be honest, but I do 485 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 6: know that it was really one of the things for 486 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 6: an Excess was we want the best band to come 487 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 6: out of Australia. I think there are either amazing acts 488 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 6: had come around at the same time or tried to 489 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 6: do what we were doing. But I think one of 490 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 6: the things that really I give this respect to the 491 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 6: guys in the band, our band, any excess, is that 492 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 6: we did whatever it took to do what we had 493 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 6: to do, and we didn't stop. And I think some 494 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 6: of the other acts got freaked out at what that 495 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 6: actually meant, because you didn't have a weekend with your mates, 496 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 6: you didn't have a normal existence. You're away from your family, 497 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 6: potentially your children, and you know people who care about 498 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 6: you love you. You will be away for a long 499 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,479 Speaker 6: time and I suppose a little bit like what some 500 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 6: people in our military have to go through. And I 501 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 6: think that if you couldn't handle that, then you didn't 502 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 6: do it and you went home again. 503 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, more comfortable. 504 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, I have to ask what music were you listening 505 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 4: to in nineteen eighty four. 506 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 6: Interesting, Well, ironically, one of the albums I loved it 507 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 6: came out around about them was Let's Dance because David 508 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 6: Belly album. Because that literally Nile Rogers and Jason Barrow 509 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 6: his original sense Bowie's gear was being humped out of 510 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 6: the power station in New York and we moved our 511 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 6: gear in the same day, So that was what was around. 512 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 6: The clash was around, like the early n Van Halen 513 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 6: stuff with David Lee Roth and well, you know, there 514 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 6: were so many amazing artists in that period of time 515 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 6: and a different kind of energy to a lot of 516 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 6: things you had. Also, by the early eighties you had 517 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 6: a turn of the tide away from sort of punk 518 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 6: and very agro rock. You had people re exploring other 519 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 6: sort of styles of music and maybe I don't know, 520 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 6: a bit more experimental things. Then you had the beginnings 521 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 6: of what became you know, hip hop and rap and 522 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 6: all kinds of diffusion of rock with hip hop and 523 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 6: exciting things like that, which were really cool at the 524 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 6: time because no one had tried anything on like that, 525 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 6: putting like electronic music with electric guitars, and it was 526 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:09,400 Speaker 6: really good. 527 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 5: And some time you mentioned Van Halen nineteen eighty four 528 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 5: because Eddie was in great form of the guitar and 529 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 5: they had an album called nineteen eighty four as well, 530 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 5: right there, exciting times. 531 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 6: And so I just want to say as well, you know, 532 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,919 Speaker 6: so I think, yes, they were exciting times. But I 533 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 6: think that the chart success we've had it kind of 534 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 6: led on. It led on beautifully and segued into listen 535 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 6: like these the album masters. But that was really important too, 536 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 6: because that gave us our first top five hit in 537 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 6: the US and other places in the world, and we 538 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 6: got attention in a different kind of way. But it 539 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 6: was it was all pretty amazing. But I think the 540 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 6: swing in particular in Australia seems to be in a 541 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 6: very affectionate album for Australians. I think, yeah, you know, 542 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 6: and it has some really I don't know what. Some 543 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 6: of the songs are very broad, you know, of some 544 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 6: of it's just good, Some of it's good sort of 545 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 6: simple lyrics to understand, you know, some some pretty straightforward 546 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 6: funk and pop and rock stuff. And then you know, 547 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 6: but we weren't trying to change the world. That's the 548 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 6: other thing, right, you know, we didn't have a soap 549 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 6: box and agenda. We were just sort of as songwriters, 550 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 6: especially myself and Michael, we're always trying to reach a 551 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 6: broad range of people we didn't see. It's only these 552 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:37,479 Speaker 6: people that are cool, you know. Yeah, if anybody likes 553 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 6: your music, you're lucky. 554 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. 555 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,719 Speaker 4: Well it's only now that we know Fordy is down 556 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 4: the track. It's being enjoyed by a second and then 557 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 4: third generation equally as much as we did back in 558 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 4: nineteen eighty four. 559 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 3: So thank you for that. 560 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, thanks man. When nineteen year olds nowhere is when 561 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 5: nineteen year olds talking about Bet Johnson's aeroplane, I go, well, 562 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 5: that's Me's to Mark, that's very cool. 563 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 6: I mean you should mention that, but I was just 564 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 6: going to shamelessly ad as well. I released my own 565 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 6: self titled album. It took me a long time to 566 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 6: get my act together. I'm still trying, but in twenty 567 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 6: twenty one and then I'm working on my follow ups 568 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 6: at album.

That was a 645 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 9: real pity, huge out and also Warterman's not playing, so 646 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 9: pretty hard to tip West Coast could be a bridge 647 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 9: too far. Even though the Pies have got a lot 648 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 9: of injuries, and Waterman. No hammy for wardmen. I don't 649 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 9: know where that's come from. It's just concussion. 650 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 5: Two such impactful players this year, you know what they're too, 651 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 5: probably their two best players. They'll be leading the Warstall Medle, 652 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 5: no doubt. 653 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 9: So how can that happen? It always happens to West 654 00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 9: Coast in recent times. Now the Dockers tonight big game 655 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 9: six point thirty Opta Stadium looks like it could be 656 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 9: a bit wet. 657 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 3: YEP, I don't know it's looking that way. 658 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 2: Is that what the forecast is that? Well, the forecast 659 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 2: is for storms really. 660 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 4: And I just started look at the little weather radar 661 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 4: and just a little south of us, there's some yellow 662 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 4: and red coming at us. 663 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 9: So that might have influenced why they didn't play their 664 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 9: big ruckman, Sean Darcy.
