Have a beach house. I just have one house and do you know what? It is quite rural and everyone says, oh, this luxury house. Every day a tree falls over and Michael has to get the chainsaw out in anyway, I'm going to ask you about football, but I also need to ask you first about what happened on Friday at lunchtime.

So Sam McClure reached out to me and he said, would you do a function for me on the MC for a Q Football Club in the mcc dining room. So, yeah, Friday, I hear all the noise, so I walk into the room. See I saw a staff member at the s and Football Club. So there was a seat next to him. So I sat next to him start having a chat. After a few minutes, I was buttering my bread roll. After a few minutes so I said, he said, what are you doing here? And I said, I'm the guest speaker. And he looked at me a bit vaguely, and I said, where is Sam McLure. By the way, because he's hosting. He said, no, no, no, Sam McClure, this is the long room. You're in the mcc dining room next door. So I had to try and the whole table was just laughing at me. And I was trying to back out of this room holding a bread roll. I didn't want to put the bread roll back down that I buttered Jackie, so actually put it in my pocket. Sesame seeds just coming out of used to fill the watching later on and the sesame seeds coming out and all that.

He ever turned up to the wrong place.

He ever turned up to the wrong place.

Never ever, Like I've sort of done things where I've been sometimes I'm meant to be going to Channel nine, I'm half daydreu, I've come here or something like that, but never turned up to sat in a different room for function.

One double three six nine three. When have you turned up to the wrong function once? You're Someone sent me something on social and they were like wedding crashes and basically these people were going around and they were in the background of all the bride and grims photos but no one knew who they were, and they were just there for the free alcohol and they went around it. Literally but in Melbourne, literally but hey, a lot happened on the foot over the weekend involving footy. Geelong another big win, but another loss for the Bombers. So I sort of wanted to start with that today and say what is going on at Essendon because you did say to me a few weeks ago that if things got worse, it was going to the pressure was going to increase, and I think that's happened now.

It's hard now because they're just decimated. So Geelong beat them at the best times, like Geelong have had a Jimmy Bartell mentioned to me off in a meeting today that might be twenty four of the last twenty seven. I don't know if that's exactly right. Geelong have beaten the Bombers, so they just it's men be boys all the time. But Essenon would have eleven voice first choice players out. But it's just the way they lost, which was disappointing by odd points because they lost by ninety one points four weeks ago as well, but they had no backline and that Geelong just feasted on them. So disappointing the way they lost, but there are a lot of injuries and reasons for it.

Wonderful three six nine three for an Essendence supporter jump on the line now, because we talk about Carlton and rebuilds and Essdence rebuilds a lot, but the same issues seem to happen year after year. And I did ask you a few weeks ago about soft shoe injuries and the type of injuries that a lot of these Essden players are getting, and do they need to look at that program now?

Yeah, there's no doubt they would be and damning when they draft players a week or two ago who are in lower competitions and they have to bring them into play against a season Geelong team. So yeah, I'm sure it's very tiresome for both Bombers and Carlton supporters who turn up every year with hope and by mid season it's all over.

It is all over. Now. Do they need a good spray?

It is all over. Now. Do they need a good spray?

Do they? It's changed a lot now. I don't think they give sprays like they used to. So it's a matter of people who are very and so you've got two or three sprays in your year, Jackie. So two or three sprays. If you do any more than that, players don't really like it, or they fear you and don't like you. So Sam Mitchell's given a few good ones that have really worked for his team. I wondered whether he gave one at halftime because they were so much better after.

That game was awful to watch and it was just me I was, Oh.

That game was awful to watch and it was just me I was, Oh.

That's then. That's been the talk as well over the Tasmania. Is that just what Tasmanian games produces. It's windy, it's it's cold. So that's the debate about it. And it certainly didn't help their cause those conditions on the weekend.

So is it still appropriate to give a spray? And who do you think in terms of current coaches other than Sam Mitchell would give a good spray because we were talking about this offair and this was my favorite.

Yeah, Terry Wallis and Ross Lyons. I've seen him few, but they used to be really personal. Like I'm talking really personal. It's say Dennis Pagan probably maybe she in.

The do you get a good spray me too? Golden?

I reckon there was only three big ones, And there was one day I was playing poorly at a Marvel stadium and I didn't attack the ball once as well as he would have liked. And he talked about how I was embarrassing myself and everyone who had come to watch me that day.

Wow, And I saw the most Why were you in your career at the time.

Wow, And I saw the most Why were you in your career at the time.

I was pretty experienced and I could see the moment it all came out of his mouth. I felt like he regretted it, but I knew I felt like and that's what you expected back in those days. But where he was very good was he would make me feel pretty good not long afterwards. So he was very good at picking you back up. So it didn't happen very often with sheets.

Because now are they allowed to give a spray or not?

Because now are they allowed to give a spray or not?

Really, I'm coach myself and you and I think you have to be firm with your players, and they want boundaries and they want structure, but you don't do it to a point where you don't embarrass. You just don't embarrass your players, and you build up your connection with them to a point where you can be firm with them and they want that and they respect it, but never take it to a point where you say things about a player that makes them embarrassed or feel pretty small, and they're not going to you wanted to play better after you've spoken to them.

Your cause for Matthew Lloyd Esendon fans. Have you given up the faith? The best sprays of all time in footy, actually in world sport won double three six ninety three. And are you like Lloyd? Have you ever turned up to the wrong event? We're talking to Lloydy And he turned up at a function on Friday afternoon. It was the wrong one, sat down, ate the bread roll, put the rest of the red bread roll in his pocket and departed. Jeff, where did you turn up at the wrong place? Too?

Well, it wasn't so much for me. It was my elderly father attending a funeral talking to a mate on the outside. Wandered in, sat down. In a few minutes in realized their funeral was in the chapel next door.

Oh, Jeff, how did he get out of that?

Oh, Jeff, how did he get out of that?

Well, in football parlance, let's say they were sitting in the midfield, so there was no escape. They were in the center square, so they couldn't get up to go. They set through a funeral. This is without no man. They sat through a funeral just to be nice.

They wanted to go to Jeff. That's classic.

Hey, Jeff, have two bottles of the Bodley buttery. Chardonnay, and did you also go to the wrong funeral? Hello, hey John, Yes, did you go to the wrong funeral too?

He stole my sonder a little a friend of mine. We live the other side of Geelong and we were traveling up to Faulkner to a friend's parent and in all fairness to us and in our defense, the only people we would have known there was our friend and her husband. We got there early. We went and had a look all through the mausoleum. We came back and buys in. There's a lot of people waiting in we go and we looked at each other and we said, well, we don't know that this is ours. It was a very European funeral. It was absolutely packed and we came out and everyone's looking at is saying who are they? What are they doing here? And yeah, she's got me to follow the wrong line and find the other one.

I wonder if this is a thing, if people have attended the wrong funerals. But hey, Ldia, that's taken a bit of a pivot from our usual sports segment. But I do have a couple of footy questions to ask him. Obviously, the big story today Jamari j Hagen back at training, So what is the next step and are you surprised to see him back.

But I do have a couple of footy questions to ask him. Obviously, the big story today Jamari j Hagen back at training, So what is the next step and are you surprised to see him back.

I was surprised to see him back. But this is the thought around this Jack, is that for his own career and for him to play somewhere next year, he needs to go back there. And it's good for him because he finds him a new home next year. He won't show this yearge No, and it's good for the Dogs because it gets them something back for him next year. So he won't not play a game for the Dogs. He might play four VFL games late in the year. But it's sort of like a term fat in the cow in a sense, you're fattening his value so the Dogs can get something for a prize number one draft pick, and he might get to a club next year.

Where would you see him going.

Where would you see him going.

Well, there's a number of clubs who need key forward to Sydney Swans, that's the Brisbane Lines, but it'd be a huge risk whoever takes him. So I just want to see will train for twelve weeks and can he train two, three, four or five times a week for twelve weeks to show that he's worth giving a chance to Because you're very disciplined.

Do you think that now? As you said, is he worth it? Is he worth the risk?

Do you think that now? As you said, is he worth it? Is he worth the risk?

I wouldn't give him a chance like now if I'm running a footy department or program, I wouldn't because he hasn't. Yes, he's had his problems, but he hasn't shown a capacity all year to commit to the Western Bulldogs and be disciplined in that environment.

Okay, And just finally, North Melbourne selling two of their home games to Western Australia where they're at in the ladder.

What's of you on that.

What's of you on that.

I've got no issues with it because they are a battling club, so they're not like Collingwood or Essendon who have big membership. So my understanding is that these teams make nearly a million dollars a game, so they might have got two million dollars in the coffers. They won one, lost one, so.

It's worth it.

I think it's it's big money. It's like a major sponsor for them, and they're they're gone for two weeks, so I think while you're while you're in the position you're in, I think that's that's fine. North Melbourne have done.
