Whateley · AFLPA CEO James Gallagher | Full Interview (15.04.26) · 15 Apr 2026 podcast

Yeah, really disappointed.

Yeah, I have.

Look, we just had a good chat and I think, you know, consistent with he made a very short statement, but he's really disappointed.

And I think, unfortunately, you know, the weight of evidence, which was in his favour, doesn't seem to have carried the day here.

And, you know, that's concerning.

I think anytime a person gives evidence and it's not accepted, that sort of cuts quite deeply.

You know, I know Zach well enough.

I know Ollie well.

You know, these are guys that are, you know, really highly revered, true to their word.

I don't think anyone's ever doubted that and for the first time that's happened and

I don't think that's a good thing for all of us.

I don't think it's helped, but I actually don't think this is necessarily about players being umpires.

I don't know Nick Foote.

I have no reason to doubt that, you know, what he said he thought he heard is what he thought he heard.

He was focusing on umpiring the game.

Zach and Ollie were focusing on playing it.

It's entirely understandable that that might be misheard.

I think there's no doubt in my mind that that's what happened.

And...

those two things can be the case.
