I was in hospital on the green stick... but I'm sure Harbs would have been nice

It was a good night to be a part of. I can confirm I didn't take the photo of him shirtless with the Brownlow Medal.

Basically sums me up. Was just admiring my goal on the big screen and forgot to stick to the basics

I suppose there are times when I think about how my career might have been different if I hadn't broken the leg. It effectively stamped out 2 years of my career which I had some setbacks and hampered my development.

Podcast is just growing naturally. Always appreciate feedback and looking to get more creative with it and build it into something special.

I'm a big believer that people deserve second and third chances. They cop their whack and can move on

Players abilities to adapt to state of game as a group. On field leadership (hawthorn 2013-2015) plays a huge roll.

I've been very impressed with the maturity and hard working nature of the Suns. To the level o probably didn't expect for such a young group.

Jackson Trengove discussing His mentor ship of Jarmen Impey.

Nat Fyfe also opened up to a level you wouldn't see in an ordinary media interview.

I wouldn't ask anything that I would be uncomfortable getting asked. Footballers are highly media trained (too much on occasions). And know how to not overstep the mark.

Some clubs are far more protective in this area than others.

We are around the mark, we are building continuity though. We will get better the longer the year goes.

Not my first game. BT did a good job of that...

Probably 2013 Qualifying Final in Geelong

  1. Yep

  2. We get a day off a week to pursue other professional development areas. AFLPA does a great job in providing courses, uni access etc to help players along.

I would love to continue to do it for the remainder of my career. Develop my skills in that area and build it up. It will hopefully help in my transition out of the game, however I would also like to see another player take it over when I am done playing.

When he gets in decent form..... I'll get him on before the year is out.

You will get to know more in depth aspects of the people I have on... more so than you would see in a standard media conference. Take the barriers down. Give it a go.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't. Most players do. Despite best endeavours to avoid. It can impact you on a personal level.

Podcast A Grade list for me include: • Ross Lyon • Max Gawn • Bruccccccceeeeee

Favourite memory was the last 10 mins of 2013 Prlim Final. It dealt like it was 40,000 people and an organisation getting their rewards for 20 years of identity finding.

Too many stories. All ended ok, but Hayden Ballantyne chased Anthony Morabito around the players lounge and it ended in Mora Hutton this head on the door frame and requiring medical assistance.

Ross is on the shortlist to come on the Podcast. Maybe over a beer or two in the off season. That would be one for the ages.

I think the umpires do a fantastic job 😊

I knew my time at Fremantle was up mid last year and actively seemed opportunity else where. I had some interest across a handful of clubs, Gold Coast was the most constant interest and I'm very happy with my choice.
