It was the most hotly contested case coming in.
The sheriff.
If he had his mate with him, the other bloke might have been in more trouble.
If Solly had been with him.
Yeah, it's almost impossible to try and talk about and, you know, even give you an understanding, I think, for the listeners around how you possibly have to function in this situation.
I mean, Jordan Dawson, you know, he's the captain of the Crows, his family, you know, what they're going through is unimaginable and I couldn't imagine it.
And, you know, all you can do is be there, be there in support, you know, and I believe the Crows boys were and they were there everywhere in support for Jordan down at Robe and
You know, I happened to come through there, unfortunately, um, the last 24 hours I stayed the night in Robe and I bumped into three or four people in the street and they all thought maybe I was there for something to do with that, unfortunately, but the community will surround the family that will.
help a little but I couldn't imagine how it can help much but they'll surround him but the footy club's got to go to work and they've got to turn up and play you know to this evening um and I'm I think I'm calling that game so it will be it will be really really challenging for them and it's just it's almost no there's nothing you can do say or
other than do your best and that's what you said you might go out there and have a kick try and get yourself ready to play you can't tell people how to deal with grief you just can't it's just impossible and you know you would have i have a number of times unfortunately had to deal with with death in your footy club and that's that's bloody hard and um my thoughts and prayers go just to the to the family of the dorsons and uh
hopefully more than anything else that they're trying to battle their way through the next, it won't be days, it'll be months, weeks, years, all those sorts of things they have to deal with.
Yeah, they have been up for a long time, but you said their retention's been pretty good.
They've actually done their retention pretty well based on losing players and replenishing on the run.
And what they've done is lost top-end quality and got top picks back in.
So they always seem to have a massive amount of first-round picks on their list.
I don't think they'll...
I don't think it's about the quality.
I think the list is still good enough, Simo, answering your question.
I think it fit and healthy.
I think that list is, you know, as I said at the start of the year, I went through each list, and they were one of the top three or four lists in the competition based on where I thought their A-grade lists were, where their next level of players were.
