What is the main focus of the Sunday Crunch Time episode?
Hour number two, Sunday crunch time starts now for the Ozito Brussels Power Tools built to work. Ozito do you and the Ford Ranger triple stack deal. Our experts on a Sunday after the grand final fear for SIG Energy, Josh Jenkins and Adam Cooney. We'll get very shortly. We're going to talk about Chris Fagan's future. He's put that on the agenda himself post-game as the whispers were swirling prior to the first bounce yesterday. Afternoon. So we'll get to Chris Fagan. What it means for Josh Dunkley. I've asked you off air, JJ. We might try and revisit that a man who yesterday won his fourth premiership. But it's time to have a little look at Fremantle. Does the Worfee time replace the power stance conversation, JJ?
I've reckoned now?
I thought I could get through a Sunday without having to to bring it up, but uh if you must. Uh I don't I mean it is what it is. I don't if they want to bring it back, they can bring it back. Uh if if they want to shelve it, whatever. What they what they need to do is go about this in the right way, Coons, and that what they need to do is go about getting around each other in the right way. They need to remind each other of how great a season they've had. Uh there are, you know, a handful of individuals on both teams in, you know, in reflection. Now Brisbane are in complete uh celebration mode, but there are individuals for Brisbane who didn't play very well either. The beauty is they were able to be carried by others and they get to enjoy the spoils.
But from a free manner perspective, they just need to get around each other because um, you know, there were so many players who had down games and down moments and massive monstrous moments late in the game that would not have all allowed them to sleep at all last night. And I can remember back when we lost our grand final. Now we lost by um eight goals. So we had some time to process it in the last quarter. But um The most important th thing for them, Coons, in my humble, is is the way they get around each other this week and and the way they continue to stay around each other across the off season.
Well, it's yeah, it's it's one of those things that you never get over. I think even uh speaking to to players who have got multiple premierships in the back pocket, they they still remember, you know, the one that they lost. Like Geelong players, you hear them talk about it all the time, it still stings. I'm not sure how it would because they've got as I mentioned, you've they've been there and had the ultimate success a a few times, but they do, you know, see Steve Johnson and and these guys talk about you know the ones that they Lost um that still stings and Selwood and these sorts of guys. So look, it is it's it'll be heartbreaking. I think that uh Warfy time, unfortunately, uh will rest in peace uh from here on in.
I don't think we'll see or hear Warfy time again. I mean, you but you put yourself out there and you you make yourself vulnerable and um and that can backfire, and it's worked so well for them on their home deck. and everyone was, you know, waiting for that big moment. When's it gonna come? And they get seventeen up with four to go. And it was a uh It was the perfect time to play it. Until it wasn't.
How do the hosts describe the emotional impact of Fremantle’s recent Grand Final loss?
So I and I think now every time the Fremantle players hear that, I mean it it it'll bring, you know, the sh shutter through the spine and um and and it'll just it'll just take them back to that moment where they were so close, you know, Patrick Voss kicks the goal and he prances to the fifty and we think, Oh gee, this one's over and then this the bell rings out and it's just gonna lead to devastation and bring back So I think Warfy time will be shelved and we'll be able to do that.
Never hear it again. JJI obviously there's there's a camp that's been well publicised after the AFL grand final, but you what you just touched on there are getting around each other. Do you do you think that you and the teammates that you had in twenty seventeen could have done that better in hindsight?
Yeah, but I I think it's now this will sound like I'm passing the buck a bit and and if it does, it does.
