So Lewis said, look, let me have a think about it.
And then he called me up.
I think it was the next day.
He said, look, I've been having a really good think about what you said.
Let's get started.
I think we need to try and pull Channel 9 together.
And that's where he gave you a call.
Yeah.
So Neil rings me.
He says, let's have a coffee.
I remember in Camberwell.
So I'm hosting the footy show.
And he sits down.
He's going through the same, I imagine, conversation.
And then he said, I've got this idea that I want to do this thing at the MCG.
And he says, it only works if Channel 9 and Channel 7 get behind it.
And at this stage, Channel 9 and Channel 7 hated each other, mainly because of Sam, who'd take the P155 out of Channel 7.
Yeah.
Competitive rivalry.
A little bit of tension there.
