1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: Ninety six AIRFMS Fremantle Dockers David. 2 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 2: Monday, there's been killed by forty one points in Melbourne 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,400 Speaker 2: on Saturday revenge after the round two loss of the 4 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:10,959 Speaker 2: same team. 5 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 3: Kid, Hey day, how are you mate? 6 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 4: Go crazy? Good mate and nice to see you. 7 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, have you met day one round y? 8 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:17,600 Speaker 4: Yeah? Some subtle difference. 9 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll do my best lease impression throughout this interview. 10 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 5: That made great win. 11 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 1: Really two different games and once that second half sort 12 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: of came in five into the midfield, a bit of 13 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: a different mix in there. How did you see it 14 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: after halftime? 15 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, Well, clearly the first half we'll start there was 16 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 6: was pretty ordinary. There's a lot of things not going 17 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 6: right in our game, but I think coming out of 18 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 6: it that's arguably a positive for us because we were 19 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 6: playing so poorly, particularly out of the midfield, but our 20 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 6: backs were able to hold up. When we got at forward, 21 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 6: we're able to be quite efficient with it and score 22 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 6: pretty well and keep ourselves in the game. 23 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 4: Certainly felt walking in a half time like we were 24 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 4: quite lucky. 25 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, and then yeah, a few subtle differences, few changes 26 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,639 Speaker 6: with personnel structure and all like of stuff. 27 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 4: But I think it was more. 28 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 6: Just we'd regrouped in our mindset in that second half 29 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 6: is what really ultimately changed. Seawn Darcy started to go 30 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 6: a bit better in the rock. Patty Ryder, especially early 31 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 6: in the games. He's still jumping really well and do 32 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 6: crazy stuff with the ball. So yeah, I think collectively 33 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 6: we just all lifted out Antie a little bit able 34 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 6: to win the ball at the source a little bit 35 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 6: more and get a bit of field position. And you know, 36 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 6: that's been a real strengths of ours throughout the year. 37 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: So much of the media talks always about five. You know, 38 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: we saw JL get a little bit set up, wasn't he? Yeah, 39 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: So I now don't ask him about that, to be honest, 40 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: like I mean, it does take the attention away because 41 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: a lot of the other guys in the midfield played 42 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: really well, like you did, you know, Will Brody, Andy Bradshaw, 43 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: Kleeb So do you do you like that it's a 44 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: distraction and you guys can all focus or do you 45 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: guys also get a little bit Okay, all right, we 46 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: get enough Fife stuff. 47 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 4: I've played with him for a long time, so I 48 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 4: get it. 49 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 6: And to be honest, it's not too bad because he 50 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 6: takes a bit of a lot of the attention away, 51 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 6: which I think is a real positive for a lot 52 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 6: of the rest of us. And even on game day, 53 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 6: like you see, when he comes up into the midfield, 54 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,119 Speaker 6: the opposition are a little bit more wary about where 55 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 6: he is and what he might potentially be doing. 56 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 4: It just gives them another element to think about. 57 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 6: So, yeah, I think the strength of our group, midfield group, 58 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 6: and our team this year has been the eveness of contribution. 59 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 6: Any brashrem particularly is probably an outlier outlier to that. 60 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 6: He's having a phenomenal year, but yeah, when that comes in, 61 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 6: he's just playing a role and doing his bit, and 62 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 6: his bit was very helpful. 63 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the three goals makes a difference too. 64 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: That's next level again and into the midfield midfield contribution. 65 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 2: That's and it seems weird with a dual Brownlow Star 66 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: and you know, it's plenty of dogs, the fact that 67 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: it's about confidence, but he's got that confidence as well 68 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 2: now as well. 69 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, well, he's been been through a lot in the 70 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 6: last ten months, like multiple surgeries and big ones and 71 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,839 Speaker 6: having to kind of almost start at ground zero. 72 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 4: We saw the pictures of him through someway. 73 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 6: It was a little Matt Fiffe again from a Counas college. Yeah, 74 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 6: he's doing really well and he's a great addition in 75 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 6: the back half. 76 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 4: Of the year. 77 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 3: Amazing how you can all sudden look like straight. 78 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: Away takes a few months to get that program. Andy 79 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: Brashaw are going to win the Brownlow Absolutely. Yeah, he's 80 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: playing so well. I saw some stats yesterday that shocked me. 81 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: Like I think everyone thinks is tough in an under, 82 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: but he's getting so much of that outside ball now 83 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: and just really spacing and that's the stuff that can 84 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: set you apart too, isn't it. Because I'm not saying 85 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: he does do any of the hard stuff, but he's 86 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: also doing the other stuff, to the attacking stuff and 87 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 1: setting himself in good spots. 88 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 6: He's really evolved, Yeah, he has. He's getting a lot 89 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 6: more efficient with the ball as well, which was a 90 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 6: bit of a knock early day. And he's he's kicking 91 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 6: efficiency in particular, and he's worked really hard on that 92 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 6: and so that's really come up to a level. 93 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 5: He seems to hang around you a lot at training 94 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 5: off now. 95 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, we do a lot of partner kicking and stuff 96 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 6: and work on that connection together. I'm certainly not taking 97 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 6: credit for that. He's working really hard on it, but 98 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 6: I think Andy's backbone is you know, his defensive stuff. 99 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 6: He works really hard back he works, he gets after 100 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 6: the opposition when they have the ball. You know, we 101 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 6: see all the tackle packages that come out every week 102 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 6: and like chasing down, getting a fingernail in, causing a turnover. 103 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 6: And he works so hard away from the ball that 104 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 6: I am staggered with the amount of times that an 105 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 6: opposition quick kick a ball and it lands in his 106 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 6: lap because he's just working so hard to put him 107 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 6: put himself in great positions. 108 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 4: He's getting a stack of the ball. 109 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 6: Obviously he's doing a fair bit with it, but he's 110 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 6: doing a whole lot without it, which is really helping us. 111 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 4: That could be a big could be a big week, might. 112 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 5: Grand final. 113 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 4: I don't want to project too far forward. 114 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 5: You're not allowed to say flag Mantle. I know, you're 115 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 5: not allowed to. 116 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 2: Talk about the bracial situation, mate. I mean, he has 117 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 2: gone to a new level and especially in recent weeks 118 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 2: you've seen it. But he gut runs like the gut 119 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 2: run he's got. There's nothing left in the tank. He 120 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 2: leaves it all out there, doesn't he. 121 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely, and it's something we've seen, you know, from 122 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 6: day dot when he's come in. The work that he 123 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 6: puts in, even behind the scenes, but on game days 124 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 6: is what sets him apart. 125 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 5: Yeah, we spent We've got to talk about Rory. Lobb's here, 126 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 5: you and. 127 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 1: La. I mean we heard the process. He's sitting in 128 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: the hotel room trying to kill some time. Girlfriend's there. 129 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 4: I'm not buying girlfriend's. 130 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 5: It does the shock a job. I hope you guys 131 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 5: got into it. 132 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, we did. Yeah. 133 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, we have our players meeting as well tomorrow, which 134 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 6: you might I don't know, but it might come up 135 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 6: in our players meet. 136 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 4: It should be fine. 137 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 6: But by all reports he had attended to yesterday and 138 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 6: it's not quite as orange anymore. 139 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 3: Oh okay, yeah, but yeah, I. 140 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 4: Don't want to break any secrets. Rory might have a 141 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:30,679 Speaker 4: big reveal. 142 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 2: He was trying to be blonde, wasn't he right? That 143 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 2: was the attempt I think so, Yeah, he didn't want 144 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 2: to be a carrot. Because Laurie, my wife, looks at 145 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: him and goes have a look at Lobby, and I went, well, 146 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 2: I could see thirty seven, but Lobby's not there. 147 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: Yeah. 148 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, it happened obviously in the morning of the game. 149 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 6: But the funniest part of it all was Matt Tabernhah 150 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 6: was one of the first guys to see it. Yeah, yeah, 151 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 6: and you just Natt was telling us he saw Tabs 152 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 6: early in the morning and Tabs were just walking around 153 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 6: like on age. I just wanted to see someone You'll 154 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:58,239 Speaker 6: never know what happened. 155 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 1: Lobby's fascinating to me because he's playing great footy, like 156 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 1: career high goals equaled already, and he's still got a 157 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: bunch of games to go. And obviously there's so much 158 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: talk about him, whether he's going to be here, whether 159 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: he's not, but he just seems to really still be 160 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: enjoying his footy. 161 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 5: He seems to be laughing a lot. The guy seemed 162 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 5: to get around him. 163 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: It's a really unique situation and I think everybody's handling 164 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: it really well. How do you see it from the inside. 165 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, he's certainly not shying away from the group or 166 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 6: the program, and yeah, game day stuff. 167 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 4: He's been exceptional. 168 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 6: Even when he comes up into the rock, he's really 169 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 6: proactive and aggressive in there, which is a real benefit 170 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 6: for all of us as well. Yeah, these things play out, 171 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 6: and you know, if he goes at the end of 172 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 6: the year, good luck to him and all that kind 173 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 6: of stuff.
