[MUSIC] It's Scotty and Gospel Breakfast. [MUSIC] What everyone, 4th and 6th. [MUSIC] Talking Depo Studio, next to Sonos, multi-room listening, wireless home theater and a whole lot more experience. The game changing sound this season with Sonos. So just look across, the chair is empty. But look down the line to the great man Scotty coming through. Spent the last few days in Melbourne town watching Collingwood be dismantled and dismembered in front of everyone. Scotty, very good morning. >> Good morning. Well, let me just tell you, I watched the first half of that came. And there was with some friends and the big G train and decided that big Fraser was much more entertaining. And I didn't watch the second half because it was put. It was in the background, it was haunting me and they were rubbish. >> Yeah, they were rubbish and we'll dissect more rubbish coming up. Don't forget, 131255 you wish to give us a call or 0487736736. Our Monday chat always, thanks to the wonderful team at Maccaffay. Grab 24 chicken McNuggets for 995. Get more for your money at Macca's Texa coming in already. How has your trip over there been? >> It's been exceptional, thanks mate. >> The weather's crap that traffic's nightmare, Victorians everywhere. >> That's not coming back again, I'm not coming back. >> That is, that is the issue. >> No, it's been really good mate, good over a lot of good people. And we've had some fun along the way, we'll be back tonight. >> Hey, Dane's one's in town over here. >> Well, I'll be with him tomorrow night too, so it doesn't get any easier for me, so we've got him tomorrow night and another gig on Wednesday night. But anyway, so you know, good fun mate, it's all good fun. Big weekend of footy, some absolute howlers in there and some ones that now have caught our eye and I'm still none the wise of who's going to win the flag though. >> So we've woken up this morning with the latter after 1918. Well, how many games have we had? 18, played 18, right? So Sydney are two games clear. In fact, they are 56, played 19, what was it? >> It was 19 rounds, but 18 games. Yeah, so 18 games have war played, but 19 rounds are right. 56 Sydney, Carlton 48, the second. Brisbane, can you believe it, on percentage, every mantle. And then GWS, Geelong Porter Adelaide, and Essen. And out of the eight, the Bulldogs. >> Not for long. >> Melbourne, Hawthorne. Then Gold Coast and Collinger on 36, you'd say out of those two, probably only the sons could, and they're just going to need things to go their way. You can make the eight, the Collinwood 4 has been dramatic more on that shortly. Adelaide, St Kilda, West Coast, who now faced the real prospect of finishing last if their performance of St Kilda is an indication of what we're going to see in the next five weeks, North Melbourne and Richmond. >> Good on them, not a bad thing. Not a bad thing to finish last. While the carrots are still there, the rewards are there for whoever finishes last, you're better off finishing last and second last or third last. Mind you, you don't want to witness too much more of what we saw in the weekend because that was just hideous. >> It was embarrassing. They looked disinterested, they looked dysfunctional, they looked disheartened, and they played St Kilda, who kicked 17 goals. >> I'm not. >> 17 goals, Scott. >> Yeah, well, let me get the winners and losers in a second. But I'm not taking the words disheartened. I'm taking absolutely spot on, I think you know, what disinterested. They looked weak, insipid, effort again, and it's like floggling a dead horse. I know this, but all the supporters want his effort. They know where they sit, as far as the list goes at the moment, where they are in the cycle of football. But you can't go out there and dish up that. That's just junk, I don't think these guys understand. Well, there's a lot of them that don't understand, we've got a list of them right here. I'm not sure they know that they're playing for their lives right now. They're playing for their football careers. And I think if you turn over the footy, that's OK, but chase someone, tackle someone, throw your body over a boot, I'm going for a smother, look like you give a toss. Too many of them there just don't. And I'm not going to stand for, are we just down on confidence or anything like that? And just get your work right up and then you'll be OK. And people will respect you for it and you'll show a bit of ticker. That was, that was, that was two years ago stuff, last year stuff. That was, that was, and the word, I'm going to keep saying it, it was insipid, so disappointing. 21 tackles inside 15 and none, it sends a real alarming message to 21 zip. Shame on your care. Well, actually, what's the whole, you know, say down down the social media path. Shame on your don't care without saying you don't care. One player who can hold his head up against, I think against the run of play over a long period of time in these tough times has been Jamie Cripe. So I really like Cripe's work, I think Cripe does hurt. I think his work rate is exceptional. He likes to, he's a bit of a general up forward to try and organise the group and stuff. But I think the cliff came pretty quick for him on the, on the weekend. It was, he looked a beaten man and with five weeks to go and I don't, and I don't think he has to prove to anybody whether he's good enough. But at the same time is, if I use him as the benchmark or the watermark in regards to where West Coast list is at right now, he's at that tipping point where the cliff came on the weekend, bouncing the ball, broken tackles, bad decision making, falling over. It just, it could just sum up West Coast plight at the moment. And that was Jamie Cripe's. I'm not, certainly not targeting Jamie, but I think if, you know, one player have always looked to in these difficult times at West Coast is saying that he sets a bit of a barometer in regards to how well they're travelling. I think what we saw with Jamie on the weekend is that next year won't be happening to be very surprised. Is that, is that, is that, um, is that unlucky because of his age and because of the plight of the rest of the team as well, um, he will come under that sort of scrutiny and focus. Or did he just have a bad game? It was, it was passed because he hasn't been horrible, he hasn't been horrible. No, that's exactly what I'm saying, a hundred percent. No, I just think it's summed up where they're at and he's, he's not alone. And he, look, we, you've got to be careful about being personal in regards to some of the players because it is their careers, their job. Oh, yeah, it's hard. And they're all going to find, but if I look at Campbell Cheser and I've been a Campbell Cheser believer, Campbell Cheser getting subbed out of a game when the game's gone and he's in, he's a young man who the club has built a future around taking as an early draft, but he's getting subbed out for tactical reasons. Yeah. That's alarming. Well, getting replaced by Josh from Otham. Well, well, well, well, Josh is not a wingman. No. No, no, no, I understand. So it's all a bit bizarre, you know, it's, and you know, Campbell Cheser will be on the level this next year, but no doubt about that because he has to be. But I watched him two weeks ago. I think we spoke about this a couple of weeks ago, whereas he, he was in, in that team, the only thing he did was position himself in a team defense structure. You know, after the footy and get the footy, just, just covered space, not even a man. So he's got to, they've got a whole lot to learn, which I'm sure he does, or he doesn't get it. No, it's Campbell Cheser, but then he stays there. That's not the, I don't think that's the tough list decisions that they're going to have to make this year. The tough ones are going to be, Goss the, the, the Tom Coles, the withered. And then I think, I don't know, people go after withered, and like, there's no tomorrow, but I think he cares. I think he generally, genuinely cares, you know, Rotham, Luke Edwards, you've got the older boys as well, which say, you know, she's got a contract. Darling got a contract? Good question. I think he does. And makes sure the gaff doesn't. So, you know, they're going to have to make some tough calls on the middle of the road players. And I don't think Jess is one of them, but she's got a lot to improve on. Not he's just texted in 0487736736. In the least surprising statement of the cane corns has just given the stinger that his malle is that you have some big news to drop this morning and you are the king and drop news every day. Listen, I did have a chat with him before we've come to work. I should have had a chat with the boys. I said to Cane, can you please stop annoying my mate? Oh, you dropped the grenade and I'm left there dealing with it. All right. So stop that. But I've got breaking news too. I've got breaking news. Now, I know you've got some regarding, I believe, coaching appointments, but I've spoken with Nathan Buckley. Now, I said to him, mate, when you need to come over, I've got the real estate to the stars guru to look after you and you'll be right, I'll help you out where to go and where to be. He goes, yes, sweet. There's a place in City Beach that Adam Simpson's selling. Yeah. What's the most? I said to him, so when are you coming? And he said, well, this is what I'm doing. And you can run with this Monday and Tuesdays. I'm going to be at West Coast, Wednesday and Thursdays, I'm going to be at Port Adelaide. And Fridays, he's going to be looking after Tasmania. So we could see the first time a coach coaches three coaches, you are welcome. And I want to piggyback on your journalistic skills, but that's straight from the horse's mouth account. That's good. And did you speak to Buck's face to face? Yeah. Yeah. I can. That's the best of Scotty Cummings on Nathan Buckley. Can we do a school? Pay that away? Some stage. All righty. Jack Darling has one more year. All righty. So my breaking news is sort of semi-breaking because I mentioned it in the coverage yesterday. What about you, Goss? Come on. Almost. Almost. What about you, Goss? Ken Hinckley. Ken Hinckley. Okay. I think Ken Hinckley will get the job. You think he will get the job? I think he's the number one target. Okay. I think he's significant. The shift has been significant in the last 48 hours. Right. Well, that's an interesting one. I think it's disappointing that after such a big purple patch that you've had, you've gone out and rolled that. You serious? I think he's... I love it when you... Hey, when I'm looking at you, whether it's face to face, I'm down the line and you're gonna ask something that you're really confident about. You start shifting in your chair a bit and you start getting yourself comfortable and ready to go. You are confident. I'm a body language expert. I'm confident that he is at the top of the shopping... Is that near the top of the shopping list? Yes. You can't come out and say he's gonna get the job because they are... No. Process... They've got to go through this massive process. No. But I do believe of the ready... Of the coaches that are coaching his name in the last 48 hours has certainly soared into contention at West Coast. You're going down the path that they will take an experienced coach path. Which it hasn't won a premiership coach that's got them close but not quite there. I don't think... I don't think that's... I don't think that's gonna warm the hearts of many of your supporters to be honest with you. No. But I think if I was the West Coast Eagles supporter, your decision is do you have the patience to wait five to seven years to one develop your list and then throw a handsome stroke gram into the coaching fire? Or do you try and recalibrate quickly with a guy, albeit he hasn't won a flag? And I've been a little bit critical of Ken and his lack of premiership success. But at the same time is, I think there comes an end that I think he's got something to offer. His name's been mentioned in Tazzy. His name's been mentioned in other jobs. He's good enough to get another job somewhere else and then... His players love him. Yeah. His players love him. There's no doubt about that. So then we asked that question last week also. The biggest decision they have to make is which path they go down. The Eagles, whether it is an experienced coach, someone who's been there and been in a system for a long time knows exactly what they're going to get and what they need to do or they go an untried coach. That decision is going to be an almost big one. Yeah. So just in summary of all of that, so in the last 48 hours, I've received some information that Ken Hinckley certainly on the West Coast Eagles shopping list as one of the leading contenders of those who are coaching at the moment, clearly has a contract at Port Adelaide, clearly they're still in finals contention, clearly he's not going to talk about it. But that hand over with Carr has to come eventually. Ken's got to then think long term and if all of a sudden he can get a five-year deal or a six-year deal, he stays in the system. West Coast is certainly going to knock on the door and I think Don Pike has lived in that state where Ken has been and they've coached against each other. So there is another little effort that could play out in the future. Lisa's in Allenbrook. Standby, I think she might be angry. Lisa, good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning, Scotty. No, no point in getting angry and bitter and twisted because we've been used to it. So, Scotty, I agree with everything that you said about the Eagles and just on Ken Hinckley, no, I don't think so. I think Ken looks too tired. I think he needs to step away for 12 months or so and have a good rest. And guys, you know, I know it's not going to happen because the window has been closed on him. But I think the only one that can turn that club around because he knows he's got a good football brain, everything, and that's Peter Sumich. He has got such a football brain and knowledge, that guy, he could bring in a good list and a game plan and he could turn that club around. Thank you, Lisa. Yeah, OK, so, he's not going to get it. No, no, he's definitely not going to get it. Thank you, Lisa. But there you go. Lisa believes, you know, someone like Peter Sumich can come in and no one's ever been critical of Peter's coaching acumen. I think he's very good. But I think the boat's the ship's sound in regards to being a senior coach. Simple as that. And in my mind here, I haven't listened to Sumich for a long time and I don't know if he's still completely at the cutting edge of fully technology and then tacked him throughout now. But now that boat has sailed. All right, quickly, some text before we get to our winners and losers of the weekend. Don't forget, we are doing it for Sonos, multi-room listing, wireless home theatre and more. If Hinkley comes to West Coast, flip after 34 years and support the old man, Sam Carlton. That would be a debacle. Tom O from Bumbry. Lads all hand in my membership, put it into the fire pit. If Ken Hinkley starts coaching, a young coach is a lamb to the slaughter. I'm all for a coach that can improve the list. Tom says, "Sorry, I'm okay with the three-year deal for Hinkley. I expect Nick Day cost a slide down, he's got his power rankings, go free. I think Tom, you might be right. Why would Hinkley want to lose for the next two years and be under pressure for two years when he could get better jobs? No, I'm not sure, but yeah, I'm not sure the better jobs are there for him, to be honest with the Christian. But if Ken Hinkley came, how long would that contract be, Goss? Oh, it would be a four-year, five-year deal with some triggers and he can just re... And you know, when Lisa said he looks tired, yeah, he's under pressure at Port Adelaide. He's not going to be under pressure at West Coast. But he's always been under pressure, not always, but he's the last really five or six years. How much speculation has he had to deal with about his job and his contract and I don't think they've handled it exceptionally well over the journey. And he would be exhausted, I think, but I think also now he's just used to that. Just a nice demanding job, exhausting and demanding job. Exactly right. All righty, what about this one? Lazy and Wembley Downs. Come on guys, what a depressing start to the week talking about West Coast. How about talking about the winners and hopes and domination of 3-0 are fantastic. How about a 1-23 ranking on each player or talk up the flag, Lee? Lares, sorry. Stand by. Don't forget a Hamish pressure after seven. We've left a little gap there. There's something in the tank. There's going to be something in the tank for West Coast, probably let me tell you. But in the meantime... And Lares, Lares, I'm time here on here. I'm not giving you a 1-23 ranking. That's far too much work and I'm exhausted. We're going to get a breakaway and come back and then we're going to go through our winners and losers for the weekend. Thanks to Sonos Multi Room Listening, Scottie is in Melbourne. I'm reliably back in the studio. Hammers after seven. It's in there in the morning. Just in there in the morning. I just want to make mention too, I had a wonderful birthday party for my beautiful mum yesterday afternoon after. Did you? Lovely. Fantastic. Fantastic. Family, plenty of family, friends. We toasted the beautiful woman. Yeah. That she is. Would you charge them? See it. I didn't get the MC role. It was given to Henry. Oh, no. To the Faber Nephew at the Grandson, sorry, and Nephew of mine, but to the Grandson. Oh, no. Yes. Oh. Is that all mine? Well, I applied. And they said we want to go with someone with a bit more verse. We're going to go down a different direction. Yeah. Oh, no. Anyway. I think we had a take. And then there was a book. There was one. I got 150 cash because I was stood in for a photo. Alrighty. Oh, my gosh, thanks. Birthdays, events, and some of the great moments in history. It's on this day. Free amount of fans are really happy that we still haven't talked about them yet. Anyway. It's coming. It's coming after 6.30. And Tom, I think it was Tommy. And they said, unfortunately. The folks are still on West Coast, but it's any chance of a bit of top four team in Perth West Coast is not new, so it's a train wreck. And that is why it's new. Yeah. That is so bad. It has to be some accountability on it because, you know, you just can't gloss over the sort of performances. I agree. And we are coming though. Free. I don't remember that. Definitely right. Free, oh, fans. So just hold your horses. Okay. And for those who are texting in saying "gosages" saying that he can get the job, it's not my messaging. My messaging is he is on the top of the shopping list of the tried coaches and he will certainly be in the conversation. This one's from me, five, seven, five, gosages managed for the younger nephew. Just been managed just to have a week off. Don't worry. It's funny. Yeah. No doubt. In five weeks' time, I'll be looking for a trade. I'd try the family. Mutual, mutual decision. I don't know. I'm just going to go around and pop and say that's it. I was overlooked for your birthday party, MC. You can get that. I'm a required son. Right here. It means you're gone. You're out. It was a good party. It was a great party. And you'll sit down and Vavi will go, "Listen, you have the full support of the pojakamachio." Exactly. You're gone as well. Exactly right. Exactly right. But you're shot. You're shot. It's sensational. That was your last piece. I hope you enjoyed it. Let's get some of this out, thanks to Barra and Ode. That one, Johnston's A4. You've been training all the winter, and there's not a team that's fitting. And that's the way it's got to be, 'cause you're up against the best, you know. This is super test, you know. And you've got to beat the best of what it's seen. Lily's pounding down like a machine. Pasco's making divots in the green. He's taking wicks, whoops, he's clearly unpicking us, and the chapa's eyes have got that killing knee. Here we go. This is the walker's plan, have it with the bats. Right path, it's good to see you back. Lead is making runs, Doug, he's chewing gum, and Gilmore's wheeling willow like an axe. Come on, Ozzy, come on, come on, come on, come on. 1979. iconic, he was the writer for the Mojo singers, absolutely brilliant. Hey, Bobby Sherman's 81 today. # How do you lead to lead to lead to your love, baby? Oh, follow that up, you'd have believed in you. That's a good set. It's not. It is a great song.

Bunching going on out there. Someone just, I don't know, he's all thousands out there, isn't it? No, no, no, no. Gotta get back in the gate. Get back in your rhythm, mate. Find your rhythm. Okay. I'm gonna take it personally. Go on Henley, 77 from the Eagles. # Do you remember Daniel Jones? Have I said Daniel Jones? Nah, nah, don't, don't do you. Savvy's Gardor? What? Oh, man, I'm not there. Oh, no, no, no. We'll leave it there. We'll go to the news because we've not had the same page. Is this how we're at a date? Yeah, don't worry. Well, that's good. I'll be making them my own. Don't miss out on the little minds. I don't know. It's just a normal segment we do every morning at the same time. I don't know why it's become so hard today because the little things are everything. Just $6.30. Thanks, too. We'll have money. Seriously? What was that? Yes? It was a train wreck. I'm not there to predict you today, boys. You're on your own. Oh, tell me why. I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. Tell me why I don't like money. I bet you're a does love Mondays. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's it. I'm sure it was, boys. I had to listen in because I'm on the Quava coast at the moment. There's not a whole lot of reception up here for TV or internet. But from what I did here and what I've checked out overnight, impressive midfield got back to work and take care of our own business. Yeah, they were awesome. Brace Shaw and so wrong led the way. Darcy first hands. So many elements. And we've got our winners and losers in our premiers and the likes still to come. And let me just say one thing that Michael Walters was a master stroke move because we had just a long year on the show. And he said categorically, he was going to be the tip, the sub. And he did a switcheroo. I did see that. I mean, that popped up on the Twitter feed while I was checking out the cliffs and making sure it won't fall in. But yeah, no, obviously from what I said, what I listened to, the boys were impressive back to work in the middle. They would have been down on clearance for the last couple of weeks, dominated from the middle, started on time this week, which is not something that trio generally do. Results are falling our way. But as I said, we just got to take care of our own business. And it starts this week. Last week, Tim asked me if I was worried or concerned about the Derby. I said no categorically. I'm going to emphasize that no this week. There's percentage on the table this week. Boys, we need to take it. Yeah, right. In Faircall, they were brilliant. And some people, even up to four or five weeks ago, had them in the premiership window with four other clubs. Now it's down to three for mine. But tell me a question. Do you think Andy Bradshaw is more important and more powerful in, say, look from a pair ranking point of view than Caleb Sirump? Oh, I knew this was coming. [LAUGHTER] Look, I mean, maybe. Look, the bloke you haven't got in, and next year he'll be a lock, is Haydnja. Hmm. Yeah. Oh, yeah. So you're putting him in the top of the tree. Next year, I said, next year. Thank you. All right, mate. OK. Hey, Ray. On Monday. Next Monday. Next Monday, we're going to chat to you right after the Derby. I reckon you might be a little bit more cocko hoop. There's Monday with Ray. Ray Capogreco always gives us just a little little taste. It has free metal fans. A lot of free metal fans. Someone just said, "Freeo fans." I'll read this out. Three, five, nine. I think three, five, nine is very grumpy often. All three metal fans, tune over to 11, 16 Melbourne on the app, Bucks and Kane, are talking about free metal. OK. Off you go. Todeloff. Don't let the door hitch on the arse on the way out. See you later. There he is. Nutrient Word of four day forecast. Your destination for all things water. 20 showers increasing, 17 showers easing on Tuesday, 16 Wednesday. Wow. Shower to an 18 on Thursday. Your irrigation pump and filtration product specialist is nutrientwatervisitnutrientwaterstore.com.au. Time for newness. Yeah. After seven o'clock damage ratio, we're going to dissect a lot of book about the female lockers. I've got a question to ask about his brother Andrew. Looking forward to getting some answers, some medical answers in regards to his brother. Personal private medical information. Yes. Oh, OK. Yes. No better place to do that. And there's a very small percentage percentile, a very small percentile, that he fits into a rare category of human being. Andrew Braco. Next to an extra toe. Well, well, we've got some stuff. Well, correct. That's the way to hammer comes in after seven. We're going to put that on him as well. All right, let's get through this. Because we have got a very busy half hour ahead. We've got to go around the country as well. We've got to golf update things to barrel and die. What do you got for me? I'm going with my premier mate straight away. And it's-- I watched Fremantle yesterday, and I agree completely with you. It should have been a bigger margin. They were impressive. But my premier's hawthorn, they were just so good. And the way they play, they weren't playing my team, would have enjoyed it a lot more. The way they play is bold. It's exciting. They love each other immensely. They were terrific, and they absolutely put pay to calling it a season. Very much so. Loved it. I liked them. But my premier's Western Bulldogs have the most unreliable and they've just done a lot to think of them. But, gee, they were good down there in Geelong. They were fantastic. Are they becoming reliable? No, they're horribly unreliable. Oh, no. But, gee, their best is so good to watch. Their best is so good to watch. Oh, I agree with that. Wooden spooner? Wooden spooners. Don't, don't, don't. Oh, I have to. Don't. It's just boring, mate. Yeah, boy. You know what? You know why the eagles are my wooden spoon for the week? Because they made your crap team look exciting. I mean, no one can make St. Kilda look exciting, but the eagles did, and for that they get the wooden spoon. Oh, right. St. Kilda. Boring has. And they made them look like Sydney. Gee's. Gee's yours. Mine is, well, Geelong. On the flip side of the Western Bulldogs being their premier's. Geelong. Speaking of unreliable. Yeah. Are they back? Are they not back? Well, this season is so bizarre. Let me show call to finish. Yeah. Yeah, they were at home. All righty. What about your brown line? Well, it kills me to say it. This annoying little turgic get-of-it in Sir Brownlee for me. 31 disposal. Two goals against his old team. The way he did it was he got his head caved in at one stage. Still came back and bounced back and he was unbelievably good. Hoscanelli at the spoil. Meat stands underneath. Get-of-it. Slips through and gets the goal. He's been desperately searching for. How sweet it is. Love him. He's not a one trick pony. He's a very, very shrew. He's smart. He's smart. Yeah. Went in the middle. He's playing up the ground line for clearances. 11 score involvements. Five tackles. He's doing it all. He's just a... Yeah. My... Is it what? No, I don't say that, mate. No, I know. Because he gets under the calling with skin all of a sudden. I'm calling with skin. It's just the way he goes about it. Oh, no, no. I know there'll be... People go, "Oh, I love it. He flows with flair." They want to kick his head off. Rather have you in your team than not in your team. Yeah, I know. You can only love him if he's in your team. Yeah, well, there's a bit... I hope he's thick skinned. I know he's young and he's a bit silly at the moment. But I hope he's thick skinned because he will be the most hard to play in the competition. There's a bit of braid man out of it. It's a bit of braid man out of it. And braid man out of it. It drives me absolutely. Oh, he don't like hard nuts at go. Just hard at the forehand. He's not hard, mate. He's not hard. He's a lot of Huff and Puff. He's the Stephen May of the Collingwood team. There's a lot of Huff. Hey, nice footballer when focused. When he's not focused, he goes completely off the rails. He's your brownie medalist. My brownie medalist was Andrew Brashaw. I thought Andrew Brashaw was unbelievable yesterday. Yeah. Just thought what he did, his effort, he got running, his skills. He's like his foot skills are elite. I'm a smartie, isn't I? And he and Sirong are so connected. So connected. And then you got your third. Five didn't kick the ball after half time. That fiveth roll yesterday was elite. Yeah, exactly what he's going to do. Brilliant. He was unreal. And he was pointing. Now, when they were running in transition, he was almost pointing where people should be going. And they followed it to a tee. Five just was awesome again yesterday. But Andrew Brashaw. All righty. And also your rising star. Darcy Jones. I'm just loving what he's doing, mate. He had 18 and a goal. Ballad will be gone here, Hogan put the tackle on him. He finally got rid of it. David straight to a lurking Darcy Jones, who put the foot down, accelerated away and speed it through for their second. His speed is exactly what they've needed. And he's playing a massive role in their resurgence. A couple of goals. This five score involvement. So I love watching him play. Little man getting it done. West Coast Eagles were keen on this young fellow if they didn't get Harley Reed. And I talk of my rising star, Nick Watson. Bruce gives it to Watson. He's on the boundary. He wants to cut in board. He does. He snaps. And he goes. Or how they'll love him doing that. Yeah, the wizard. Absolutely brilliant. All righty. Some quick winners and losers before he cake a break and come back with around the country. Our Brisbane v. Sydney game, the whole thing. I thought it was amazing. And a great game of footy between two absolute genuine contenders and Brisbane are that too. All righty. I want to take you to a double. This is a double winner. Justin Longewar had this to say on Friday about sunny Walters. He's going to be in 23. Yeah, he's going to be in 23. Luckily, he's going to be sub again. Well, he wasn't. Despite the fact that he doubled down with the press conference. You're a liar. You know what he did? He pulled the master stroke move and Michael Walters produced a bit of Michael Walters vintage four goal performance. All by hand. And they're out again. Walters on the end of it can go and play on. He looks to go short and runs. He just gets the ball on boot and doesn't matter. He was chased down by his former teammate Langdon. He was very... The floor of the best. He's a beauty. Well, I'm going to back that up too, guys, with Freeo for what they did. You know, I love the off field stuff, the field good stuff. But Freeo and their fans raised more than 424 grand yesterday for Starlight Foundation. That's taken their total to just shy of $3 million since they've been doing this. Sonny Walters say Captain Starlight salutes. Yes. The work that they do for the Starlight Foundation is brilliant. Hats off to all of them involved and hats off to all the fans. And anyone else who contributed 424 yards a great day's work. And young Amy, the seven year old who tossed the coin and there was a fairly big coin anyway. She goes, "What do I do?" and they she tossed it. And she threw it straight over her head. They went 20 feet the other way. Love it. No problems at all. I experienced one that tossed and well done. Fantastic stuff. Another winner for me was, in fact, in that game again, we saw it. And Freeo Mantle, Luke Ryan played his 150th. No send off. No first off the ground. No chair off. No anything. You know what? He didn't want to rain on the Starlight Parade. A Starlight Foundation, people have got it. So he let the kids walk off. The players walked off. Last man off. Tucked in the group. Luke Ryan. Well played. Well played. Not bad for a guy who spends a lot of time at his fishing shop and then had to go out and play. I was still haunted by the words of what business? What business? What business? What business? What business? What? I came to lose this for me. He got a dang given. He's just a tool. And I hope he's thick-skinned because he's going to be wearing this stuff for a long time. And I was enjoying it now. But anyway. Did I hear this correctly yesterday? Let me throw to the ground report from our own man, a special K. Josh Tracy. We were here nice and early today. And I saw him walking around the ground at around 11 o'clock this morning barefoot. Always really connecting with the optist to feeling it between his toes. Maybe that's the secret to his good form at the moment. He's earthy. Yeah, exactly. Because I've won with the ground before the game and he's obviously a great nicks. So maybe that's the secret to his success. I thought that was an interesting one. Yeah, well, you know what? You won't find a greater fan of Josh Tracy than myself. And that's been quite evident the last year and this year. But the fact that you've called it earthing, if he's earthing, he's gone down the bottom of the barrel for me. That is one step away from being a vegetarian. I've been a fan, but he's lost me now. One winner for me, Jesse Hogan. That's it. I like that. A winner. Yeah. He's a winner. I don't have any more losers or wins. Oh my God, one more loser. West Coast broke the rules. West Coast broke all the rules. Bradley Hill, Gardevonna for $250. $250, $250,500. $300, $300, $300 is the minimum. Games record and retiring champion here. Neither are any of those. Doesn't fit any of the boxes. $250, great career. Well done. You saw it for three more years. We go around the country next. Thanks to... Not Gardevonna worthy. All righty. We go around the country. Thanks for 24 ticker McNuggets for $9.95. Your winners and losers. Keep them coming. Just quickly, a golf update for Baron today because the little things are everything. Xander Schoflay, not Scott Schoflay. Schoflay. Carter to find around 65. His back nine was incredible at Royal Truing to pull away from a crowded leaderboard and win his second major championship of the season. Little Xander, Baron Oda. Don't miss out on the little moments because the little things are everything. Around the country next and after seven o'clock. Amish Bradshaw. We are going to dissect. Some are little birdie told me that there is a medical issue with Andrew Bradshaw and we need to get to the bottom of it with brother Amish. And I don't know what... Amish doesn't pull any punches. He'll reveal all. It's got... Yes, there's no secrets with Amish. I'm looking forward to finding out what's making Andy Bradshaw so different. Let's go around the country. Check in. Thanks to Sonos Multi Room, listening wireless home theatre and a whole lot more. Let's go to Michael Whiting because it is the two clash this week. It's a big win. It's back at home for the Gold Coast Sun so they'll probably go into the game thinking they're a shoeing. But what we liked once we saw of Brisbane yesterday was pretty good. All they all bet they just got over the line against the banged up Sydney Fish. Appreciate it. Time, big week for you. Hey, Goss in. Oh, yeah. It's a big week for us. Last chance for the Sun this weekend. If anyone thinks they've still got a chance. But, yeah, I think it's the immovable object of the Sun's at home against Brisbane's irresistible form at the moment. So, looking forward to it. We know the Sun's a completely different team on their home deck. But, yeah, I know Sydney was banged up yesterday, but I really liked what Brisbane did. They found a way to win a couple of close games in the past month and it felt like a final yesterday. It was a preview to what we can hope for in September. What do you say this weekend then, Fish, because, as Goss said, last chance, last hurrah for the Sun's to be a chance. I really believe Brisbane are in full contention again now because they are finding a way and they're just playing so much better than there were even four or five weeks ago. Oh, yeah. It's incredible. Their form is completely reversed since the middle of the season. But it's a great challenge for Brisbane and they'll put this up on the whiteboard. No one's beaten Gold Coast at home this year. Gold Coast actually smacked them in the corresponding match last year against the odds. So, Brisbane, despite winning seven in a row, you know what this ladder is like? You lose two in a row and you're probably out of the eight on the edge of the eight. So, despite Brisbane's good form, they just cannot relax. They've got players in form now. My cluggage was enormous yesterday and Cam Ray and I had one of the best games of his career. So, good to see those, I wouldn't say second-tier guys, but those guys stepping up when Locky Neal and Josh Dunkley have quite days. We're time poor today. Fish will do it again next week. Let's go to Adelaide because there's a bit going on over there. Michelangelo Ritchie. We've only got a minute 20. Oh, yeah. But any breaking news over there? No. Zack Butler has made some money if you can help him. What about that? Another fun. Another fun. Yeah. I have to count a prize today for football and eventually you're just going to have to pull your head in. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, and/or suspend him so he will learn a lesson. Hey, Chris from Tamborin Mountain in Queensland has been listening to the show and watching socials. Ken Hinkley? No. Bit of speculation that Ken Hinkley's name is on the top of the shopping list at West Coast. Michelangelo. I wouldn't surprise me considering his record for bringing clubs into more than competitive form when they have issues with a list. Certainly this case has the same sort of issues with what Adelaide had when he arrived there, which is what they had to football like. Now, there's a fair bit of doubt as to whether he would carry court Adelaide into the second year of his contract next year, because they're not guaranteed finalists. Then the next vacation even needs to be, you know, a pretty good result this year for him to continue. So I wouldn't be surprised if West Coast started knocking on the door. Nice work by you. Kimball and Rooch, you can hear that on S-E-N-S-A. Hammer Brace Shores walked in, the medical issue for Andrew Brace Shores after some. Can you touch this? On Scotty and Goss, it's hammer time. Can you touch this? With Hamish Brace Shores, West Coast Poly complete tank solutions, tanks for agriculture, residential and industry. Can you touch this? West Coast Poly.com.au Had all the time in the world to cough and he decides to cough when the microphones go on. Ah, I thought it was off while that time of time was going on. You know that ring. Blue light, mate. No, where is it? Why don't I click? No. Here he goes again. Let me give it again. There you go, I'm back. He's small. How are you? Good to have you here for West Coast Poly. A complete tank solution. Of course, Scotty's in Melbourne studio and you are now in his seat where you sat so proudly on Friday. Yeah. Before we touch on all things I have felt and doubled down on some of the stuff we've heard this morning. The East Perth Fadeouts. Or be it you had a win. Or be it you're on top of the ladder. But I am concerned about what's going on in the last quarter. If I did some sums, I think it would be alarming. Oh yeah, so I'm alarmed. You are correct though. We are on top of the ladder and we won't game clear. So it's not all doom and gloom. But no, we've got to address some things going into the last. I think the mindset needs to shift from panic defense to, hey guys, we're 40 points up. Have we just play 40 and win? That's been four weeks in a row now and we've got Claremont home this week. Claremont away, sorry. So if we do that there, they'll run over us. So we've got to make sure that we address that. But look, it's a good ten and three and top of the ladder is a good spot to be addressing it from. You'd rather be there than six and seven. It's exciting that Scottie, Swan Districts spoke to Tony not on the weekend with inspiring sports stories. He just said it's just a great place to be. And you can imagine now, and we open up the discussion. Let's have this discussion, Scottie. In Pefteron, Hammer's not in the room, right? Yeah, right, yeah. So it's going to be Swan Districts versus East Perth Grand Final. Yeah. Now do we go and play it? Clearly it is. At Medibank. Oh no, that's cool. Sullivan logistics stadium. Okay. West Perth. Little level, call it what you like. Or do we come to Optus? Because it will be 40,000. But if those two teams get through and we expect them to now, I think it's done. No, no, no, no. Swan is just going one week at a time. You know that. And we're just a blue collar battler just trying to hang on for grim death. We're really not even in contention. I wouldn't even give us any time. But let's say we do make it. [LAUGHTER] And I'm going to get shot in a training tonight, this week. You know my stance on the Waffle Grand Final at Optus Stadium. I think it drains it of any type of atmosphere. But if you've got the two biggest supporter bases in East Perth and Swan District, I think it works. But I would say straight away no. But I don't think it needs to be played at East Perth's home ground either. [LAUGHTER] Let's go to a neutral ground. Oh, OK. A bit like the MCG colleagues. It's certainly in Basindame. [LAUGHTER] Brilliant stuff. But genuinely, genuinely, wouldn't it be good for the WFL competition to have two of those? Two battling teams who have really been embarrassing for the last 20 years. You couldn't do it. You couldn't just be safe if a nice thing is going. It would be good because they do, obviously they do pull the biggest crowds. We do. And the loudest crowds, it would be great to stand anywhere and just abuse Hammer all day relentlessly with just a 100% full on attack. Couldn't hear you over 40,000. Ah, you'll make you leave me. Oh, yeah. I'm going to be one of those people that switch in. [LAUGHTER] Go down the other half. [LAUGHTER] You've got to get out of the middle of the ground, mate. It wouldn't be hard, do you? [LAUGHTER] So let's just cover off on a couple of things that we spoke about at the opening of the show. And you've got to give me what's left in the tank. And I've been pretty harsh this morning on West Coast. Yep. I think they're empty. Yeah. What they saw, what we saw against the kill of their empty. And I named one player. I did it yesterday and I'll name it again. That I felt who basically sums up what their list looks like and where they have to make some tough decisions. And that's Jamie Crips. Jamie had just a day to forget. He has been good this year. Really good. But I reckon eventually it wears you down. The ball doesn't go your way, you don't chase, you don't tackle. And I just watched him with the open eyes and thinking, you know, he will set the standard. No tackles inside four at 50. Twenty-one, twenty-one, tackles inside fifty against St Kilda and St Kilda's seventeen goals. Yeah. And I just look at Criper and I think I love him and we've loved him. We've premiership played. It's been good this year. But I think the cliff came very quickly for a lot of players on the weekend. Yeah, it's as to what's left in the tank, it is bare and dry and starting to rust. Because there is not a lot to give. I think you saw against Brisbane the dropped or the sacked coach response, which is often the way with a lot of teams. When a new coach comes in, they came out with Flair. They had sort of, they had all this youth that was just free to do whatever they want. And they got close to a premiership favourite. And that doesn't last very long. And I think now they're going to really struggle. They've got, they would have thought North Melbourne was a winnable game. But they've got North Melbourne have taken it up to Carlton. And they're in reasonably good form. Gold Coast here. Gold Coast here. That's the one that they're thinking. Oh, can, but Gold Coast to be looking at that game thinking we're breaking the curse this week. No question about it. Fremantle, I just can't see them happening. Can't see the same thing happening in the first Derby. They've got a run home that would have on paper appeared good. And now I think it's just going to be a real tough slog to the finish line for the West Coast Eagles. From your point of view, Ham, we've been starting for a long time. They haven't made hard calls over the years. And that's one they're in this mess now. They have to make some, what could possibly be savage calls at the end of this season. As a player, if you're on that list, as a player, is it detrimental to see, not your mates, but players get maybe torched by the club to say, no, we have to go in another direction. Sorry, you're gone. Do you look at it as a player and go, geez, that's harsh. And they're going to do that to me next year. Or do you go, no, boys, it's a reset. And we've have to make these hard calls if we're going to go anywhere. Can it deflate you? I think it can deflate you, but I think after three years of real pain and hurt, I don't think it'll be a surprise. And I think guys will be expecting that to happen. I think just with the brutal and the savage cuts at the end of the year, they can't cut everyone. So they've got to have, you're not going to be able to have 15 go and 15 drafted because the talent isn't going to be there. And I think they've got to have a good balance. And it'll be the guys like Cripper who is going to be, that'll be the tough calls. Whether or not he adds a level of experience that these younger guys can learn off for another year or if it's just, I know you've still got something to offer. If you can offer it somewhere else, go for it. But otherwise we need someone new, they'll be the really hard ones. And you can't cut everyone, but it's going to have to be pretty tough back into the year. And then that opens up the question we spoke about. I mentioned this yesterday on the broadcast that I have not saying he's going to get the job, but I'm hearing the jungle drums have been beating over the weekend. The Ken Hinckley is starting to emerge as a contender, as on the wanted list. What are your thoughts on that? And I'm still confused as to, and you guys are the experts, but just tell us which... What do they need? And I know they need to decide as a football club. Do they need a development coach, Hanson Stroke Graham, or do they need Hinckley, Chris Scott, John Longwell. We know they've all got some credentials to senior blokes, but is that what the club knows if they're bottomed out? The thing is, too, and the decision to make is the next person they coach, who they appoint coach, is he going to be a premiership coach? Or is he going to be a three to five year get us to the rebuild, and then we bring someone else in to take us that next step? So there's decisions they make. We asked it before. Do they go an untried coach? Do they go a senior coach who's done it? He's just saying Hinckley, and do you want the job if you think that you're not going to be the premiership coach? You're going to be there to do a role for the club for a short period of time? I think you should look at Hawthorne and think there's your mold. We've got Sam Mitchell in, who is not necessarily a developing coach. He's had a long time in the... He was in the system for a long time, but he was still four or five years into being a coach. And the way that he has approached that list is, "Hey guys, you're all young, I'm young. Let's just have fun and do what we want." They are cool on the field. They've got a bit of swagger about them. And all their sort of flares and their personalities are allowed to show on the field, whereas you get an old school... You know, Ken Hinckley, I use as an example, you get a senior coach who's been around the system for 20 years. He's not letting Jack Ginnovin turn to the crowd and put them to sleep. He's saying, "Oh mate, let's just play with it." But Sam Mitchell says, "Boys, let's do it. Let's play on that edge. Let's play with Flair." I think it's a risk to go and get a young coach and say, "Do that." But I think there's the mold. Hawthorne were a poxelist two years ago, and everyone would have looked at them and think they're going to have a really strong four or five year rebuild. But they've turned it around in a year and a half. And I think that's, if you're the West Coast Eagles, it's going to be a tough mold to shake for the staunch West Coast supporters who died in the wall and very, very traditional. But I think you've got to go down that route. Today, you might be the one to answer this day. Today, almost, it's been putting us in silly as psychologists. We're talking about different people now. So, Goss and I, obviously, from an old school. And you're in the system now, and you see young guys and how they act. And then we're on the prime example of that. Today, you almost need to get a psychologist who analyzes their entire list of who they've got left and what they like and what they don't like and what they can handle and what they can't handle before they go on a point of coach. Look, it's not the worst idea. I don't think you should let the animals run the zoo and there's got to be a level of someone coming in to sort of set their standard. But I think if you can have a good blend of, we're setting an example, but we're letting you guys do your thing, which I think San Mitchell has done perfectly, that'll really work for them because they've got talented young kids. But at the moment, they're all playing in there, with the exception of Harley Reid, they're all playing inside themselves and they're all sort of, you know, they've got to shell around them because they're scared to do anything. Whereas I think if you give someone that job, like one of these young guys who are, you know, going to take their first senior job, I think you can let them just break free of that and really show talent. And I think that's what Hawthorne's done and here's your strength boys go and play to it and it's shown that it works. West Coast Poly complete tank solutions, give us Hamish pressure on a Monday. Tanks for agricultural, residential and industry. West Coast Poly.com.au keep the text coming at 04877-367-3636. Let's get a break away and come back and focus on Fremantle. Saw them live yesterday. Love what I saw. I think it's probably going to be an 80 to be really honest with you. They gave up some cheap goals late, but they were simply awesome. And is the Derby next week? It is. Ow. Ow. Ow. Because I will be fed income. If it's not 15 goals on what we saw on the weekend, then they will be very disappointed with themselves because they will put them to the sort. Let's get a break away and come back. Hamish pressure is in the studio. Scotty's in Melbourne and Mr. Reliable is just where he belongs. This is fabulous. Stop. Have a time. West Coast Poly complete tank solutions. Tanks for agriculture, residential and industry. West Coast Poly.com.au He's in the studio every Monday at this time. 13 degrees today at the moment, getting for that wonderful top of 20. Now, um, career high 41. Andrew? He was good. He was really good. Okay, the back goes. So this morning the top six players with cane and bucks from the round, they gave Sarong one of the top six across the competition. Uh, I think Hayes had three votes, Andrew. Two votes, Sarong. Mm. I thought Sarong was very good. No question about it. I thought Andrew was better. Yeah, no doubt. Um, he's covering the ground really well again. Oh, is he ever? He's running down. I think the hallmark of his game is when he's running defensively and those chase down tackles because he's so quick. For someone who doesn't look at, he is lightning quick. He was a national 400 meter runner. He was a very good runner growing up. And he's got chunky legs. He does. He does. He's got an extra saliva muscle in his calf. He's got an extra saliva muscle. He's got kinkles. Yeah. So he's, um, I think it's 5% of the population or something. He's got an extra calf muscle in his leg. That's why his legs are big. That's why his legs are chunky. Have you got an extra femur? No. I've got four extra quad muscles. Oh, he's got a couple of legs with blutes. I thought this would go over weight. Here it is. Here it is, Jack. Nice. He can be born with extra cheeks either. That's why his calf muscles are so chunky because he's got an extra saliva muscle in his head. But no, he's covering the ground well. We'll throw that up on the socials. Covering the ground well, chasing tackles, strong with a ball and standing. He used it a lot better, which is good. So, yeah, I think he's back to his best form, which is good. He just knows where to go, man. He's a such an intelligent footballer. He knows if he can't impact the contest, he generally gets to where it's going to be. Yeah. The next kick or in a position he's playing so good at the moment. It was a hard one to gauge yesterday. That was so brutal. And as I said, 50 points could have easily been 80. Melbourne got some cheap ones late. I want to give Melbourne a couple of credits. Then Roy and I think he's a very good player. He's a star. He's a star. I mean, he was flying solo in the big man, right? Harrison Petty has been slaughtered, being tried as a forward. Yep. He's got no fear. He went down back and he stood in the way several times late. And I know he wasn't great House of Pitt. I'm not talking how he was a big great player, but the speculation is he's agreed to a new two-year deal with Melbourne. It's done. Yeah. So, there's a bit of like about Melbourne, but I want to ask you this question. So, there was the Josh Tracy running, walk over the line, kick a goal. Yep. And Stephen May arrives three steps late and slams into his back. Yep. A lot of conversations going on, apparently, about ball coming back to the middle. My view was in the old days, I'm sure that's an extra free kick. Yeah, free kick there. And then... Or go back to... Well, the outside said free kick. I thought, on the ground, that's what I heard. Yeah, that's what I heard. Oh, I think it definitely should be. Hey, mate, you've pushed him four seconds late. Yeah. Have another one. Cop that. Yeah. Josh Tracy goes back and kicks another one from the top of the goal squad. And I don't want to be alarmist, but almost reportable. That's what the old-fashioned charge is. Yeah. Charging a guy who's not expecting that, and you know you've got time. So, they're brutal on a whole range of other body-class rules. And you see that cheap shot. That's just an absolute cheap shot. Well, I think... It's carol-y stuff, seriously. You hit someone from behind in any way, shape or form. But it's just... Be honest with, it's weak as piss. Like, they're not expecting it. And you just hit someone from on? Yeah. Seriously? It's more about you than anything else can. Yeah. And then he was going and pushing and shoving afterwards, and then he took that into set mark and sort of screamed at him like, "Come on, Stephen, mate." Seriously, mate. You've flopped over and hurt your head on the ground, and you've crying that it's bloody sore. Go off and do a concussion test. You're pushing someone in the back. You punch your own teammate in the face. Come on. Seriously. There was this... The old stock standard cliched point of the scoreboard by Josh Tracy. That was good. That's all you had to do. I liked that. That was good. That was two big boys going at it. I did like to say it, but not the push in the back. I knew I'd back in. I'll tell you. Oh, yeah, I'd back to it. Didn't the Eagles have a pick before Jacob and Roy, and I think they might have. Anyway, continue. That's easy. You're not going to get it right all the time. No, it's hard. No, you're very hard to get it right when he was just down the road at Claremont. Right. Mate, if West Coast took all West Australians... No, I'm just joking. I'm just having a little laugh. Yeah. Don't defend them, Josh. Seriously. Sometimes they get things wrong. Sometimes you get it wrong all the time. Oh, we're dancing on the grave today, are we? Oh, he's got it. He's in Melbourne. Yeah. Can I hear me? No. If I could say stuff over here, no one hears it. No, he was very good. What about that? I want to be serious about this. Sure. Scotty and I have come to blows almost this morning, but he's sort of stare siding with me. Oh. Collingwood's fall has been, and forget about player availability. They talk up next man up, next man up, and we've got the best young talent coming through, and all these, you know, Harrison and all these guys. Oh, say it again. It's very important. It is important. Keep going. Keep going. Scotty. Don't start again. Therefore... Yep. ...is alarming. Alarming. Yeah. They were horrendous on the weekend. They were really bad. Oh, yeah. I think... So, a couple of things. I think their fall has been bad. Yes. I think Hawthorne are very good. Don't take anything away from them. I agree. I think if you look back over the last three years at Collingwood, two years ago, I said that they were a 10 that's going to drop out of the 8, and then they went under Winter Grand Final. I didn't think anyone could sustain the level of tight game wins that they had, and then they just did it another year. So, I think while they've been a very, very good team, they haven't been poles apart from the competition. They've only been winning, you know, five, six, seven, eight games a year by a goal. And you lose them, you're out of the eight, you lose a few of them, you know, bottom of the eight. So, they've been good, and they are still, I think, a good team, but they've just had a lot of games in the, you know, over the last couple of years, they've only just one. And so, that sort of skews people's perception of them. They're not dominant. They're just winning team. And so, I think that the drop can come reasonably quick when you stop having those momentum swings late in games where you can come over the line. And I think, yeah, that's what's... You're looking out at the moment, a team who was winning, but not dominant, and now they're not winning. Interesting, because we go back to the game here against Fremantle, where Darcy got the free kick when the Collingwood player didn't give the ball back and threw it to Daikos and then... Yep. And that exposed Collingwood's close-win strategy of delaying the stoppage so they could set up proft and they mastered the arts. Sinos. They mastered the art of setting up around the footy and winning a lot of close-ups. So, it goes one of the teams a little bit frantically, and that happened, and I think from that day, they now feel like if they get close, they're no longer able to execute that style because the rest of the competition has been alerted to this. The umpires as well. And the umpires. Listen, I know what you're trying to do here, and I'm upset at myself, but I'm tipping right in. You've been good the last couple of weeks. You've broken stories across this country, you've declared that where you've demanded Cox make a statement, he made a statement, but that's just a bit exposed by anything. That was just a crap umpires call, and that's a game play in your tool. Look, they just play a band. They're getting scored on far too easily. They're defensive pressures, junk. Nathan Murphy has been the biggest hole that they've seen in a long, long time that's exposed the captain, and they need to find some hunger, and they really need to sort of say, "You know what? I'm pulling the reins in a little here, boys. You don't have the freedom that you have had in the past. We need to get back to a bit closer, checking footy, and actually show that you want it a little bit more." They would poop on them. Yeah, they were. What's that? I mean, it's almost like if Nick Dacos doesn't have his 35 and kick two or three, they just don't get near it. Hasn't the cliff come for him? Yeah. It's not him. Seriously. I'm walking. Wow. Emms. Emms shut this down. Yeah. Yeah. Scotty's over in Melbourne. Probably a complete tank solutions. Tanks for Agriculture, Residence, Industry, West Coast, Poly.com.au. We're going to do our tips, our Monday tips. Yeah. Very good at it. I'm excellent at them. I do it in a lot of passion and a lot of emotion just from the weekends, guys. You're really not feeling every club in the competition. Not every club, a couple. Okay. Mate, I just asked if we're going to save the Derby, okay, they give that Derby predictions right now. Yes. Margin. Margin. Mm-hmm. I'm a medalist on a Monday before the Derby. Yep. In the headline, we will read Post Derby. Well I think Fremantle have got to, they've got to make up two points, something percent on Brisbane now. So it's closed. And they got within one point. I know. One point. They should have won the game by 100 points. 100%! I think Fremantle will win this game by 92 points. And I think Andrew will have 38 and a goal and be Rosalind Denning Allen medalist. I'm not going to be happy with you saying that. Yeah, you won't listen. You'll read it on the socials? Yeah, you will. So Fremantle by 92, Andrew 38 and the goal Rosalind Denning Allen medalist. And the headline on Monday will be home final for Frodo, because they'll be second, because Carlton and all those don't know who they're playing. We're about to give you the tear, that'll hurt. They'll actually play. They'll put that late on Friday night and it's going to start around. Here you go. No good. They're pretty good, I think. Yeah, that's right. They'll lose. They just fell over the line against North Melbourne. Yeah, they did. All righty. So let's get the hammer tips on a Monday morning for Friday's fixtures. Thanks to West Coast Poly, complete tank solutions. Carlton. Are you going to predict? Yeah, hang on before you know that. You're going to predict early costs, score and medal? Yeah. 75, Josh Tracey, Denning Allen, because I've been on the camp, I've been on the bandwagon for day one, and Headline, read all about it, REID all about it. Oh no. I've got a sneaky suspicion he'll blow off the fire. I reckon he's on the cusp of blowing off the fire. He really is. He's really going to say, this is stinkin'. Yeah. How do you know? Right, I understand if you like. What do we tip it? Carlton Port Adelaide. Where is it at? It is at Maville. Maville Stadium. I think Carlton will win this game. I thought they were dead average on the weekend, and it took Charlie Cuno to Bobup and Kick 4 and Crippa to nearly drag him over the line, but they'll be back. They'll be better. Why can't Hinckley's farewell appearances for Port Adelaide? Oh my gosh, it goes to West Coast. My man Charlie. Yeah. How many do you keep? Four. Just a four. Yeah, it is. Match running. Yeah, but the fact is that you've got him in your junk. What do you call those things? Power rankings. You don't have Jesse Hogan, who's seriously ahead of him as a talent this year. Jesse Hogan is the Australian forward. North Melbourne. Geelong. In Tassie. Geelong. Oh. You know what? In Tassie. It is in Tassie. I'm going the mighty rose. There's shin bonus. Oh, I lost one. I'm on the shin bonus. Yeah, they were good yesterday, weren't they? Yep. Gold Coast. What about this? This is the Gold Coast under back at home. Gold Coast win. Brisbane. Don't care. Gold Coast win. No way back there. Yes, they will. Gold Coast at home. Unbeaten all year. Gold Coast at home. Thank you. Thank you. Marvell on Saturday against Essendon. Oh, that's nice. That's disappointing. Saints. Essendon are the worst team in the comp. Besides West Coast, I think. So Essendon will bail out of the eight. Essendon won't win a game for the rest of the year. Essendon will lose and kill to win. Saturday night, Melbourne are favourites early markets against the Giants. Well, they shouldn't be. They certainly shouldn't be unless Max is going to come back, which he might do. I saw him after the game. I said, "How are you feeling?" He said, "Well, this is still a break in it, but I feel I'm pretty good." He was here, was he? Yeah, he was here. I think the Giants will win that. I don't know why they've gone otherwise. Saturday night, Fremantle hosting West Coast. It's a free-o derby. I'd like to amend my, not the tip, but I'd like to amend the margin. I think Fremantle will win by 111. Oh, is that how you feel bad, do you? No, no, 111. I think it'll just be shot. It'll be just, yeah, it'll be just shy of 20 goals. Wow. Well, that's going to be fun to call Gus. We could lose our way completely on Saturday night. And Saturday night, calling the take-on Richmond. Oh. Oh. [LAUGHTER] Haping two of the big four. [LAUGHTER] Big four to me. This will be all of 6,000 at the MCG. [LAUGHTER] I think Collingwood will win this, but it will be the worst match of the round. Who would have thunkered eighth versus eighth? Sydney's still on top. Couple of games clear. Host to Bulldog Sydney on Sunday. Sydney is slipping. Sydney are slipping. Watch the dogs come. The dogs are going to be hard at the contest. The dogs will make the eight, and the dogs will beat Sydney in Sydney. Injury toll too, Sydney. They've got a few big ones. The dogs will beat. The dogs were excellent down at GMHBA. They were incredible. Don't try and sell me that, man. I'm not going to fall for that. See? Talk about your goal coast at home. Sydney are certainties. Well, Sydney wouldn't know certainties when they played frail there a couple of weeks ago. It's a day game too, which they don't like. And last one is Adelaide host Hawthorne. Oh, wow. See, I don't mind the crows, but I love the hawks and the hawks. The hawks will get over the top and just steamroll them home. We're in the next race, Perth. What have you got? We've got Claremont and Claremont. Oh, yeah, that's right. Tough game. Yeah, all right. Good luck with that. Rally Rogers 150th. We'll go and spoil the party as the plan. Oh, nice work by you. Speaking of extra glute muscles. He's got a couple. Yeah, he does. He's hard at it. He's got a few everywhere. He must be quick off the mark. Yeah, very. West Coast Poly complete tank solutions. Tanks for agriculture, a residential industry. West Coast Poly.com.au. Thanks for coming in. Always a pleasure. Let's take some news. This is Scotty and Goss off the cuff mark. Duffield previewing his show. All that and more still to come. Always a pleasure. And thank you as he leaves the studio because we just had the techs come in. Scotty, we did make a little mistake there. It was Jay Amos who got the push in the back. Yeah. And it was Josh Tracy who flew the flag. Thanks to Beryl, Leon, and Harlem, and everyone else that corrected us. And they thought, but Mark Duffield's in. And Duff, just tell us a bit about the rules. So I suggested the old-fashioned rules. So Amos kicks the goal and four steps late. May pushes him in the back. I thought they should have been a freaky guy either back at the ground or back on the goal line for another goal. Yeah. So, Craig O'Donoghue who sits in the press box, obviously former umpire said the ball has to have crossed the line before the offense is committed. It probably did. But he also said it has to be a reasonably egregious offense but more the umpire will intervene. I asked him about whether the sensible thing would be to pay a free kick back in the middle. That would be the sensible thing. That's not the rule. So, the ump can't pay it because it's not the rule. What did you make a free mantle yesterday? Scotty and I have spoken long and hard about it. What did you make of their win yesterday? I just thought, look, I like him as a 14 gold attend team. I felt that at times yesterday they got a bit ahead of it. And that meant they played really attractive footy, so we were loving it and it was great. But I think their best footy against the best teams will be when they balance it up and they play that. You know, we kick 14, they kick 10, we win. A post match, was there any reason given by Justin Longewey made the change publicly on the Michael Walters being the sub? And then all of a sudden he was in the team because he was very adamant that he was going to be the sub. Yeah, I think it was just a product of Matt Johnson's foot injury, wasn't it? Coming up sore after training and basically them realizing that they had to sit him down for a couple of weeks. And so, John Walters came into the team. I know that the questions were asked. I was actually watching it in the press box as opposed to being got you in the press conference. But both questions were asked and then it was answered. Read your stuff on Coatsport. What do you got coming up after eight o'clock? Gotta talk to Craig O'Donna here, actually. So I'll ask him again about the aim is push over the line and find out what the actual thing is. But we'll talk to him about both games and obviously the upcoming Derby. He wrote a column today in the West Australian saying basically it has to be personal. I think West Coast rested a few players that they didn't, they were already banged up. They didn't want to be more banged up. I think West Coast will throw the kitchen sink at it. I think it'll be an interesting quarter and a half. I think Fremantle wins, but maybe not by the margin, Hamish is just interesting. No, you mended it. You mended it under in 12. Yeah, yeah. 1-11. One thing I would say, I heard you just talking about Andrew Brayshore's game as I was walking in on the app. And that's the best game he's played since 2022. When he, when he two-way runs like that and he impacts the game defensively, he is one of the elite midfielders in the competition. Are they genuine contender, Duff? Yeah, I think they are. Yeah. I think they're, I look at the other teams and I just don't see anyone who frightens Fremantle. Yep. You know, they beat Sydney and Sydney. They beat Brisbane. They should have beaten Carlton in Adelaide on neutral territory. I just don't see anyone who's going to knock their socks off. And so I think they're in it. Wow. I agree too. I agree too. Taking hold out of me forts, Sydney, Carlton, Fremantle and I think Brisbane are going to be riding there and I'm still a watch on the dogs. But I think there's, you know, I think Freo absolutely right into it. It didn't hurt me. It was just a cold, honest truth, because they're not good enough. And they, and they, they're falls been dramatic. Yeah. They're falls been dramatic. Yeah, OK. There were a lot of injuries. A lot of injuries. It's the old full tummies after the preposition. Yeah, look at that wide bit. Yeah. Some speculation at Quina. Did you see that? Yeah. I mean, he's texturing that Quina was a bit annoyed at Collingwood for their treatment of Jack Inaman. No. Well, they didn't treat him anything. He left at the end of the day. But I'll do some digging, boys. Yeah. I'll do some digging while I'm over here. Do you? Well, no, great to see. I mean, we've all had a go at Jack Inaman and he milks free kicks. I love you, mate. But wasn't it great that when Brad Maynard, who's the guy who comes for you, when you're playing Collingwood, and he's, he stood up to him and he gave as good as he got. And I reckon that was great. And I love the way Sam Mitchell's got him playing. They're fun to watch. They are incredibly great fun to watch. Yeah. We're also going to talk to Hayden Schloeth. It's come back. Oh, legend. Apparently, according to Cam Robinson called the game a stab. Probably he could have been his single best game as a league footballer. 32 disposals, five goals. Incredible. And he's come back. I was talking to Todd Curly about him a few weeks back. He said he's come back. You know, some guys come back and you wonder about their motives. He said he's come back. He's gotten fitter than he was when he left. He's in real good, Nick. And he's playing real good for you. Yeah, fantastic. They've got a tough one this week, they have. Duffs after eight o'clock. Enough swan districts chat. Thank you very much. Heading for the top of 20. It's currently 14 degrees. [MUSIC PLAYING] Oscar Peastory now has two more corners to go to do something that he dreamed of as a young child growing up in Melbourne. And in his second season of Formula One has finally come to pass. It is Oscar Peastory, Grand Prix winner, winner in Hungary. And for the first time, takes the check and flag and will stand on the top step of a Grand Prix podium. Ah, Crofti getting it all out there. Yeah. He's taking all the voices. Take a breath, son. [LAUGHTER] How many Australians have won a Grand Prix? Formula One. Scotty? Third. Christian without notice. Five. And he's the fifth. Oh, damn it. Two. Just listen to it. Didn't ever, didn't ever, didn't ever, when we killed questions. [LAUGHTER] Name me the other four. Name me the other four. Uh, well, Ricardo, Weber, um, Brabham and Jones. Nice work. 14 for Brabham, 12 for Jones, 9 for Weber, 8 for Ricardo. And Ricardo got stitched by his team again last night. Mm-hmm. He had two, he had two stops before the Alibi given that one. I've been fuming. I was always slaughtered him. When he in his position, he can't be fuming though. And he's just to wear it. Oh, I think he's gonna find himself in a better seat next year. Good. That's coming very, very soon. That one needs him. And also, Xander Schoflade did this. Brilliant. France out of Schoflade. [CHEERING] I've been in Scotland for two weeks now. The fans, you guys have been amazing. You guys have made it feel like a second home for me. And I can't wait to come back. Oh, yeah. No, of course. [CHEERING] Yeah, I love the fans. The fans love the fans. Oh, yeah, I love me. Four million bricks that have just dropped into me. You can't do. It's Kylie. That was an amazing tournament. It was good. You know, people that told the leaderboard then would go and shoot six over and then go home. Yes. You know, people who were one under two under and then have a nightmare that'd gone. It was just... The weather was horrible. Yeah, it was brutal. It was really, really good. Good to watch. Right. A couple of questions without notice. So, further to our... Which has gone a little bit haywire on socials in regards to the Ken Hinkley stuff that we've discussed at length this morning. Seems to be mixed bag. A lot of people saying they're packing Ken's bags to get out of Adelaide. Other said, "No, I'm going to hand in my membership if he's looking job by the Eagles." What's your thoughts on? I wouldn't be voting. I don't think he's going to be my go to. I don't think it was a yes or no. At this stage right now, after you're just throwing it at us today, it's probably a pass. A hard pass? I'll think about it on the flight home as well. Hey, who's been the biggest disappointment this season? Oh, you haven't been great, but I think... Oh, no. Why can't he whack whack? Teams, you tall. Which teams say that? Oh, crap, bloke. Collingwood, definitely. You know me, I'm only needling you. I'm a Collingwood fan. I do love them. I do love them when they're up and about, but they've been there. Falls have been ordinary. West Coast, obviously, has been poor. I haven't been a disappointment. We haven't expected a lot from West Coast. We just expect improvement. Every other club's had their moment. Every other club. Richmond, it's been standard. I think their fall is a bit over the top for a club, yeah, but still big. I think North Melbourne, we've got some green shoots coming through. I think every club Adelaide has to be still one. Yeah, I'd never have high hopes for Adelaide. They're unwatchable for me. I can't watch them. I think the doggies do sitting in at night. Oh, they frustrate me with the dogs. But they're coming. No, I read that. They're coming. So they could actually not be turning out to use this one. No, no, one for you. Will there be another coach gone by the end of this season and who will it be? And you can't take anything from Port Adelaide. Yeah, no. No, I don't think there'll be a coach gone. Who you speculating on? No, I'm asking you the question. You know, where they're going before they do? I'm just showing this around asking the question. No, I don't think anyone will be gone anyway. I'm not. I said this at the start, even though my male is pretty strong. I can't hintly being wanted, or at least being that part of the next interview stage. I've got no idea what West Coast need. I actually don't. And I don't think you can sit there and go, "Oh, this is what they need." Because I don't think, I don't think they know what they need. Yeah. It's the most important decision they've got to make. It's huge. But that's weird to be said though. They've got to make a decision whether it's for the next three to five years. Yeah. And you're going to bring us back from the brink and then we're going to go and get someone else as well. Or are we backing a tried coaching that's going to bring them all the way to the next flag? They've got a big decision to make. Yeah. Nice one more. Yeah, go ahead. You want to roll? Who is Freo's most important player? A very good question. Very, very, very good question. Right now, I think it's Josh Tracy. Good work. Right. I'm with him. When he plays well and he's doing all Josh Tracy things and he's allowed to stay there. I agree. I made comments yesterday pregame about Alex Pearce having that cast on the elbow and the cast. Yeah. I was really concerned about it. And it's proven right. From the point of view that he wasn't right to go. Because it was an innocuous knock. It wasn't like it was like a hardcore. It was just a standing up. It was a contest and he went in and just came out. They didn't need to play. No, I don't think so either. And they got Draper who's good cover and they've got to think longer term than that. You know? Always going to be Melbourne. Yeah. Well, that's the thing. Dropping is dropped. If you get, if they're playing Brisbane with their big tall forwards then you can sort of understand it. If they're playing GWS with Jesse Hogan and those guys, you know, then you understand it. But they're playing Melbourne. Question for you before we let you go and you've got to get on a plane to see in the studio tomorrow. Have you missed me? Yes. Unbelievable. It cuts out so late with the show went beautifully and then it cuts out on me. I can't hear any from this studio guys. I'll see you tomorrow, buddy. I can't wait to see us. I'll see you in the morning. I travel safely. Good luck driving across the night. That's a bit of a pilot now. Yeah. Don't you wouldn't drive up. My daughter got to the airport last night for a flight out. She arrived at midnight. The computer's working. And the plane left at 3.15 in the morning. 3.15. Well, if that happens to me, I'm not coming in. Grab 24 chicken, my nuggets for 9.05. Get more for your money. Admakka's good on you. Good on you. Good on you, brother. Yeah, well done. Good on you, Griff. Nice to work out. Chris Pafunas. Great show. Thanks for having a bracial Mark Duffield in after eight o'clock. You can always join in the conversation. 13.25.55. Or 0487736736.6. Keep an eye on S.E.N. or cross the network today. Speculation again. Ken Hinkley's on the shopping list at West Coast. Free mail are up and abouts. Wow, there's plenty to play out with. We'll have it all covered. And the lead up to the Derby. This weekend, Saturday Nightford. [MUSIC]
