Are you? Are you two okay? We're all right. Yeah, we're all right. Yeah, okay. We're all right in here. We're okay. Okay I'll just move. Oh, sorry. I'll move that out of your sight I was good game of footy on Saturday Districts in East Perth and it's perth led for 99.99% recurring and the swans got up the black ducks and you couldn't get on the text quick enough Well, I was I was excited. I do get excited emotional Really post game and real quickly And then I come then I simmer and go you probably seem like a bit of a tool So that you didn't need to send that message, but anyway, it was that was good. I thought East Perth had snatched it late Upsteps Tommy Edwards. Yeah, I've stepped up step the boy the boys in green and Well Downswing you know I saw that I saw you on the bench late with that I thought I wonder what's wrong with him and then they panned you and there's a nice back on the corner nasty Disappointing I heard it halfway early in the third quarter and then came on came off got a rub Thought it was nothing and then went back out and had to chase some black up the wing and was hobbling on a treadmill And then came off and said no, that's that's no good So it's it'll be we got to buy it two weeks. So I'll probably be post by so what does that what does that impede you from doing? In loft lots of things like I can't put my shoes and socks on without it like hurting I can't really get myself into the car without it sort of straining you lift your leg up can't play golf unfortunately But yeah, I sort of lift my leg up to get in the car because when you sort of lift your shoe up It's sort of strains right in that area and it's um, it's a bit of a pain So lots of things are impeded at the moment the good thing for you is you work at fleet network now and Frank doesn't like socks anyway Yeah, exactly. Yes, we know so it's just shoes. Hey, you stay no special. Yeah West Coast Polly complete tank solutions tanks for agriculture residential in the industry west coast poly dot com dot EU and fresh from the weekend our tipping looks like this Hammer 73 you got far four out of six It is port I should have to say what was I you change you got I know I know you try to get personal I know I did it was dumb. Yeah Brisbane and each I was really really hesitant on that port Brisbane game And pulled the wrong way and you got five haze got five and I got five I got north wrong you and I both got north wrong. Oh, we should have we shouldn't have got that wrong. That's north milk They have mad and Melbourne. Wow. It's stinking it up right now. What's the telly says? Oh, sorry. You're the telly's. Yeah, okay I'm done to back now 73 hammer 75 Scott. Oh, yeah, 80 Paul and 83 the guru. Eighty. Three It's important. I know Boy, let's let's talk about what what we can do right here right now and what's left in the tank for West Coast Poly complete tank solutions Let's talk about Melbourne what's left in the tank? Nothing nothing their tank is his bone dryers I've ever seen a tank put the tank in the middle of our springs in the middle of dry season and leave it there baking They are cooked they got nothing left. They're the worst team in the competition Oh, and they have got nothing on field off field the infielder outfield who cares? They are nowhere at the moment. They're a rabble. They've got no leadership. Oh stop it Besides Max Gorn is a star and he is it for them at the moment. They look putrid No, we don't get in here to sit on the fence. No, tell us what you think Yeah, they do they look no, but I've said it for about a month now And they are just proving me right every week miss and obviously miss patraca and they're always going to but it was very obvious Really really there's 39 points in front. Yeah, and north and without playing north So north have flipped it. So the previous week north of 50 odd points in front and can't hang on yep Second week they come back. They're 39 down and they're storming it and have five inside 50 entries in the last three minutes And can't get the job done. Well, they're getting close north as in they're getting close to getting it for four quarters Yeah, aren't they so is the story north of turns it around and getting better is the story that Melbourne who we expect so much more from The tanks empty a little bit of both North Melbourne are coming there finally getting those good the younger players They're starting to sort of step up and be better players. They're starting to get more buying and more out of their sort of Middle to lower tier players you get the feeling that they're gonna they're gonna Probably get a couple late in the year and stuff up their draft hand again. Yeah, which is disappointing But I feel like they've got a bit of a nor they've got a Melbourne trip I'm sorry a Hawthorne trajectory for mine They're young they're butting and they're just gonna all of a sudden just it'll click and they've got all these talented young first round draft Picks that are just gonna go bang but for Melbourne. They just looked they look tired They look down fit and they look they just looked disinterested in the last 40 minutes of the game All righty now in earlier in the show where we had our winners and losers So we're gonna throw this one at you Steven May this happened on the weekend How far home is set up as a dangerous tackle Stand thank you, it was a very slow whistle Dolphins perplexed Complexing for me as well wasn't played early the umpire really held onto it didn't make the call when the motion was made Didn't make the call when the motion was made because Steven May gave it the delayed throw the header on the ground moment Renate them Buckley spoke this morning. This is what he had to say and I actually think that it sits a little a Little bit above, you know, it's on the worst level of staging for me because of what this rule is there to do This rule is there to protect Players it's there to protect the head. It's coming as a medico legal reason. It's not there as just a rule or an in or a part of the game that is there of How we want it to be played? It's actually about protection of players. I think that And the fact that a teammate of Steven May's actually has you know an Angus brace or has left the game because of Can castive effects so that's Nathan Buckley and that's talking about your brother Angus and we know what's happened there And you've mentioned this is several several times. Does it sadden you to see that type of behavior? I know it's in game and they're not thinking about Angus Bradshaw when they're doing it But with hindsight you look back and we see the award given up post game How does it make you feel? Well, there's a couple of things that have happened this year with Melbourne that have sort of made me question that whole Month of sort of celebrating him I think two weeks or three weeks afterwards. They tried to get cosy pick it off a jumping head bump And and now Steven May's throwing his head into the floor to try and get a free kick I mean it doesn't necessarily it doesn't highlight exactly what where they're at as a club I think but it's it goes pretty far to show that they're just not playing with a spirit of football anymore And they're just and it's showing on the ground. It's showing on. They're just not they're not what they were six months ago and you know Angus isn't the sole reason but there's a lot going on there and for yeah for you Leader down back to be thrown his head to try and get a free kick And I mean it goes to goes away to show what the you know The fact that the umpiring is all over the place and this free kick stuff needs to be sorted pretty quickly But yeah, it's not a good look. What did you say to me? You know before the show this morning what they've done once David was there an independent should have come in and said well If you look strungly if you come for 20, yeah, let's go and put your nose your eye. Yep That'll learn you great idea get off the ground. Yeah, and see if you do that and again He's been fine for staging so and and will he speak today? I'm not exactly sure he goes back to your comments about their leadership They're on ground Mexico and put him aside because he's a terrific but then you've got one of your leaders You're probably your number one leader down back. Yeah doing that sort of junk. Yeah Alrighty Adam Simpson had this to say in regards to the West Coast Eagles Wanna get your view on where they're going as a football club and again where their tank is at thought we played the right way today is Disappointing as it was that we didn't win some of the things we're chasing We're pretty competitive out with a different look You know, we've done a few things that we did today. So there's lots of changes that we tried and Maybe too many but I don't know I think I'm we saw more about our list today than we have for a while and Something's worked really well and some things didn't and the bombers just took it in the end. What's left in the tank at West Coast? I think there's quite a bit and it's slowly filling up by the looks of things They're gonna get basically a full-strength team in next week for the first time in what seems like forever They're gonna have Harley and Tim come back and I think Liam Ryan going inside was a really good look He looked great in there And I think he's had I mean we remember how good he was in 2020 when he was in all Australian as a fourth as a small forward But he sort of lost that spring in that burst and within all his injuries and he's with the lack of inside 50 He hasn't really been able to show his talent and going back inside He was around the footy and he was he was awesome and I look it back down back TB gov they were they've been as good at back to I was there has been all year and Yes, us and them were too good and classed them late But they got within a goal or something, you know halfway through the fourth quarter and then it just came to you know The guys got on top and nesting and you know, they've heard on the ladder for a reason They've been playing good football, but you know, I think the tank is slowly filling up for the worst coast Eagles And with the full strength side in next week Hawthorne are very good and it's gonna be a challenge But I think this is gonna be a cracking game and at home You get the you know, you get the boost of up the start in there with 50,000 people there and what'll be a full strength side for the first time in Four years it'll be it'll be close. What did you think of Elliott? Yo, three-year deal? Do you think you were a believer that there was some concern considering these body drummers and you know, where's his tank At in regards to his service for the club the three-year deal. Oh, I think it's a Not necessarily a hip jerk reaction, but it's they've gone. He'll go. It might be 50 games. I think you'll play Did you say hip-jerk? Yeah That's the one Cash it's all the same Anyway, look, I think he'll probably play it'll be anywhere It'll be around 50 games over his three years He'll be lucky to get out and if that's the case, that's fine I think what you get from him though is You need a professional around the club You need a good midfielder that can teach read and jimby and Chester and these guys and look It's probably over for a bloke at 30 who's you know, had his injury troubles, but I think what you get the benefit You get from yo, he's staying there is the leadership and the education and The attention that would go away from some of these young guys because he's still you can't leave him alone He's still an Australian. He's still a You know, best of ferris when he's still a very good player and on the weekend he dominated He was very good again So I think if you can you know, as long as he can be a positive influence for these younger guys and keep them around I think the three years will be you know worth it. I think they've learnt nothing I think they've learned nothing from the the issues of what they've where they find themselves right now. What do you mean by that? Well, then I agree completely with hammer. They've absolutely reacted to rumors and innuendo and Managers throwing out there that I like to give him three years and nor is gonna give him this and and someone's gonna give him this and I think they've reacted They've jumped they've jumped the shark in a big big way because I just When you look at the history of alio and in saying well, you know, it it suggests that he's going to break down again at some stage I hope he doesn't you know, I hope he plays sixty Nine games of football, whatever it is a 23 year No problem, but it's going to be when I think they've opened themselves up again for a possible disaster and I would have thought that after where you find yourselves right now because of loyalty to Premiership players six years ago and or wasn't six years ago when they started restarting these long-term contracts It's got them in this hole and I think they've opened themselves up for another opportunity to fall in that hole again with the same sort of player who's got a history of soft tissue problems, so In three years time we will look at this. It might be a year's time when we go I told you so or it might be a year's time when they say well We told you his body was right and that's why he's played 22 games this year. I think It's risky. I think it's really risky and I think they've reacted too much to outside noise I think they I think yeah, I don't think yeah, I was gonna go anywhere I think they could have said mate Let's make it a year by year proposition or a year with a trigger you with a trigger if you hit these targets away You go, so you think you're and big you're on honestly you think the Eagles have been conned Well by the by his manager. Yeah, it seems that way. I think footy I think they're too smart to be conned they would know that would know if the offers are genuine then they've got good intel Yeah from where from the opposition clubs young mate. We're not interested in Elliot. Yeah, he was never gonna go there There's a lot more going on in Elliot goes life than people understand that. Yeah, and I haven't got you I'm just saying yeah for Elliot Yo for people to think Elliot You're just gonna get up and go and go and leaving to start living to long and live in Adelaide for what purpose? I don't think he was going to no I don't think he was going to and and I'm and unfortunately for The only there are issues that he's dealing with in life And we and we our thoughts go out to him and his family there, but this is a football This is a business and unfortunately you can't make decisions based on what feels good Yeah, I'm gonna make tough decisions and I said as I said over the years where they've they've put themselves in this whole West Coast Sure, but I don't get contracts right I don't understand them and I'm not and I don't pry into them with people say Oh, it's a four-year deal at 700,000 I don't know who pushes that cuz clubs don't tell you and managers lie So bottom line is my attitude to all of this is I would think that West Coast have astutely Done this contract where for what it's worth and I don't know this it would be front-ended where he's right now It's going to be fairly bolstered I don't I hundred and the back end will be the cheap years that if he does get a long-term injury or does get injured That they're not going to be faced with the 800,000 andra gas situation. That's what you're referring. Yeah, absolutely All right, let's turn to Fremantle. I thought they were good Servicable yesterday was an ugly game goal coast forever and I can't win on the road Hey, I'm going to play you this new but you're both played at the level and you're both traveled This was Paul Hays will be post game when we talked about goal coasts Really poor form on the road This is Paul Hays will be giving us spin in regards to him as an individual play when he was playing on the road I was one of them in the early part of my career Tim where you know you go through my home form and match that up against my way Form it was a big drop off and when you have too many why do you think that is then well as a play fair For me early on it was probably just doing things a bit different I the buffet and this is serious like you're different eating when you go and stay in a hotel He's to go two days before so every meal that you have was a buffet style and you're bored You actually really bored and you're drinking more coffee than you normally would because you're just trying to kill time When you're at home, you don't have to worry about that and then look I'd have my food and then I'd all of a sudden Geez, I'm still I'd have a bit more I'd get some some fruit salad some ice cream on the way out Then I'd give a muffin it's just different surrounding great insight because you've been serious I'm 100% serious and I'm not the only one to suffer for buffet syndrome No, he's paying on the money. Oh god. Yeah, absolutely bang on the money you would like I spoke about this years and years and years ago, it's it's interested by this. Yeah, you know tell and it's massive Massive trays of food there and you stack up your plate and you know, it's all good stuff I'm eating the right stuff Hmm, but you'd eat two kilos more than you had to and and you're right you wouldn't get some takeaway He went later on to say that when you go and then you go out on the ground and you warm up and he says you're Marvel And you've said you feel like a 10 stone heavier Oh, you feel it you can feel well, I mean, I finally played once when I was living in the hub, but When you're away, it's but when you're in the hub Tell us a bit about it. Well, I was just never I was never playing so I was just eating the house down Literally, you just get up. It'd be all these portion meals and you just get whatever I knew I wasn't playing it was when I'd play a scrimmage You honestly you just eat until you couldn't be bothered doing anything else. So he said you get on the plane Yeah, exactly the club would give you your lunch you made lunch from the dietitian you get given you your lunch pack and your water and you get on the plane and He'd eat that and then call us wouldn't and virgin come down and then give you more and you eat that again Yeah, it's surely the clubs have moved on from surely that can't be an issue for the Gold Coast sons That can't be half the reason that well, you can still eat the hat you can still eat that this buffet set up He's still there really the buffet of course it is It's just a the dietitian and the football staff say to the hotel and the catering team This is what we want. There's pasta. There's chicken. There's rice that I put off and put a warning sticker up I keep the fact it away. How many times would you Sit there and you'd go through all that and you'd eat what you wanted to eat Yeah, correct and then you'd sit there and go. Yeah, I'm gonna see if I stop on look at this Do I have for breakfast on game day at home? Do I have two bowls of cereal four bits of toast? Oh, let's throw a croissant in there. I don't think that's there. I don't think Sam flatters is eating the same as Jared Wits, but I just think it's the fact that you've got you know, it had it certainly has something to do with it You've your routine is completely changed. You've got no creature comforts at home You've got a lot of time to kill doing not a lot and especially like for eastern states teams coming over here You don't a client you don't change the time difference in two days So you're getting up two hours earlier all of a sudden you wake up and it's five o'clock in Perth And you normally wake up at seven. So you're awake you go down and you wait you you're eating schedules char It's I mean, it's not the reason there. They haven't won a game away from home. That's not the sole reason But it pays it certainly plays a part. It's time though I was saying yesterday that don't always working on things and when you're a new coach you work on blocks and you work on Say right we're gonna get a defensive right then we've got to get this right We got to get out make our home ground a fortress. He's working in blocks and he hasn't gone to this block yet Yeah, I think they need to get to it quickly But is it also just as simple as they need to grow up a little bit Yeah, I think so too and for Damien hardwick Marvel stadiums in a way game So they've got a lot of work with their way travel, but it's yeah, you're right. They've got there There's been they're not a young team. They've still got some senior players But yeah, it's it's a monkey on the back that needs to be shaken off pretty quick Do you think it filled us through the playing grip and they'll say that it doesn't but you know There's a lot of angst at the moment within the state clubs and a quality in the In the drawer and all that sort of stuff or equity in the in the draw and equity equality Do you reckon that filters through because it's a whole bit of there's a little it can be easily construed as winching from in the state clubs Yeah, and so they're playing hard done by it. There's a lot of hard done by the moment There's a lot of hey, this isn't fair and this isn't fair now. Whether that's right or wrong is irrelevant just a filter through the playing group is like oh, hey, yeah, this isn't right. Oh, we're on the road again or Shouldn't it shouldn't it's so lucky you certainly hear about it and it's not you don't sideways Mone and you don't winge, but it's it's certainly there And you can you know that it's been talked about and you sort of when you have a quiet moment and you think oh geez We're going here again or we're going to Perth three times in a month. It's like, you know the stuff But I'm sure that would come in Pressure was in the studio West Coast Poly a complete tank solutions tanks for agricultural residential industry West Coast poly.com.au What's left in the tank for Fremont after what we saw yesterday when they have to now travel on a six day break to take on the Sydney's ones at the SCG who are three games clear This is a tough one It's the glass half full glass half empty for me or tank half empty and tank half full if you will they've got a Very good side now. I think they've got a ball style a ball movement that is Unpredictable and they've got a set shot kickers and they've got in front of goals that are also unpredictable Their best is very good. I think their best can challenge Sydney even over there They're worse will lose by 80 points and it's just whatever whatever you get their ball movement when it's on it It looks really good but as soon as any pressure comes they don't have anything to revert to and They get 30 looks on goal a week and can kick 20 goals 10 or they can kick 8 goals 22 and they're out of games The last time they played Sydney here I thought they they didn't get comprehensively smashed but on the scoreboard it was a 70-point loss or something because they kicked four Goals 19 so they've it's all about I think for them accuracy in front of goal is a big one Obviously scoreboard pressure, but they're just their ability to Change styles a ball movement and adapt to the style of play which is going to come from everywhere against Sydney This is a really difficult question our last one for you. How much we let you go. We appreciate your time I listen to yesterday who is a not a bad contact and seem to have his finger on the pulse and we was raised during our commentary Mention that Andrew's name has been mentioned as part of the trade Your brother Andrew part of the trade if they were to get Chad Warner if they need to or they just trade the three first round picks Andrew played well, I think he's best going for the year yesterday I believe you gave him three Hayes gave him three. He was absolutely superb But he didn't always play in the middle. No, he played the first half of this third quarter on the Ford and the Ford line Yeah, I have to include him in my multi for any time goal kick Yeah, because he had gold all over him from the get done it was good by their midst They were very good yesterday hitting the school boy something they haven't done all year What's your thoughts on that type of chatter about him and he's he's at the same situation He's got one more year to run after this someone told me he's got about the same. Oh, he might have to okay Oh, okay, you know, he could be up at the end of 20. Yeah, and we know that you know probably Ross line would be looking at him Or you know another team somewhere else or a Melbourne where if it won't be Melbourne now after you've carpeted them His pressure award to they can say that's it. We're not given that anymore Thoughts on one the way he played yesterday and true that type of chatter. Does it do anyone any favors? Oh, look, I thought it was I thought it was his best game of the year I thought he was back to his ball-winning best. He was using the ball well He was smart with his decisions and I know yeah, and he just and he runs. He's tackle runs his tackle pressure I'm Miller was said so you stop him. Yeah, he um he always has been as good a You know runs both ways and he tackles hard so I'm that was his best game in terms of the trade talk I mean, that's the first I'm hearing of it, but it's chatter. It's chat. It doesn't really do I mean he wouldn't read too much into it. I don't think I'm reading too much into it Look if they're gonna get rid of him to get Chad Warner It's Chad Warner's a better player than him at the moment and he's as good a player as there is in the comp So do whatever you can to get him But also don't forget that Andrew was the best player two years ago and he's you've ice captain and he's you know He's a big part of what he's driving that club forward So I would be you know I'd be very surprised if he was included in the deal to get to get Warner played with that He's big toe now and didn't kick the ball in the last 15 minutes to try and stop the soreness. Oh, yeah Yeah, that's why he's limping. I thought I saw him limping. I thought what's he got wrong with it Yeah, it's all to do with a toner. Oh, he's boot at such an an ordinary toner ingrown town. It's I don't you get stood on I've lost our playing footy before I've had an ingrown toner before playing footy And you literally it's it's honestly it's as bad a feeling as you can get because you walk around think a cheese I'm a sort like yeah, you're not missing a guy. I'm not missing a guy for this is nothing But you just can't run properly. You can't walk. It's every time you move at it West Coast Poly complete tank solutions tanks for agriculture residential in industry West coast poly.com.au plenty left in the tag We appreciate it coming. Good luck with your injury. Thank you very much covering. Thank you And bad luck to the rules who are on very shaky ground after looking like well Opened up to be perfect on a star that way. It was a good game of footy very good. I'm a ratio in the studio each and every Monday Bye.
