What feedback opener and sponsor message starts the Fireball Feedback episode?
All right.
Feedback is for IMAR, protecting tradies and builders for over 35 years. Call 13-IMAR to get yourself covered today. We had some feedback for Tom Morris a little bit earlier. I'm hoping the triple agent can just isolate here. You can just hear him shaking through his boots. We'll get that in a tick. In the meantime, let's go to Damien, who's got some feedback. Welcome to Fireball, Damien.
Morning, lads. Strong work from you guys this morning, mate. Well done. Don't have any feedback for you boys, but some feedback for the broadcaster on Saturday night. I'm sitting back and it was a pretty ordinary game, but sitting back watching the game on the Saturday night and I had half a glass of red wine. I thought I was half cut. It's gone into bloody... Hindi. It was Hindi, Damo.
We addressed this earlier on the program, if you weren't with us. Yep, it just clicked in to the alternate broadcast, which we enjoyed. I think I preferred it, actually. I think I preferred the coverage than what we were getting with our man. Thanks, Damo. Good feedback. Nick's in Hawthorne. You got some feedback for the worst rule in football, Nick?
How does Damien describe the alternate Saturday night broadcast he watched?
Yeah, morning, guys. Long-time baller, first-time caller, standard 901er.
901er, I like it, Nick.
Yeah, look, we can't all be up as early. I mean, some of us work in an office job, so it makes it a bit harder. But appreciate the work you're doing. Love listening to the podcast. Couple on this godforsaken stand rule. I'm just wondering why I'm not hearing anyone talking about this. Mark's inside 50. Why do we have to abide by the standard rule? Why can't we just go back to the good old-fashioned east-west? And another one, if the player goes...
Assuming we just moved on from that one. Do we take the risk on Gaz? Can we trust Gary? Can we trust Gary without the ability to dump?
I don't think we'll take calls because we did dump our previous caller.
We can trust Gaz.
You lose, you die. He's my man. He's my man. No, he is. I just want to... No. Play it ultra, ultra safe.
No, let's trust Kez. I don't want to trust. I want to trust Gary. Gary. Gary, I need you to be bulletproof here.
Straight, straight, Gary. We've got no delay.
Listeners, I've got gold for you, listeners. Just stay with me. Two points. The first one, Kingy. Don't get beaten by what you know is yours, man. Yeah, thank you, Gary. You know, when you had Simmo, Simmo was there. He talks in circles, Simmo. When he starts undermining that quote, I mean, come on, wake up yourself, Simmo. That's Kingy's. Don't touch it.
So you think he invented that saying, Gary? He did. I heard him.
I'll take your word for it. Anger, Gary. Just let him get through his stunner.
Can I get through? Because I've got one, listeners. Don't miss this.
Why is Nick calling about the 'stand rule' and what change does he want?
Now, Swanee, the new AFL guru, remember? He came on the other week. 96% of the decisions of the umpires are correct. Oh, okay, Swanee. So some other corporate person told you that, did they? So what happens if you happen to be a heart surgeon? And you get 4% wrong. So, oh, there's all your patients over there. They don't recover. What if you're a pilot? Oh, 4% of the landings don't happen, everybody. Well, there's body bags everywhere.
Nah, good. It was worth it, Gaz. Thank you. I trust you. With the 96%, does that include marks, like uncontested marks? Is that included in the accurate decision? I don't know. That's what we need to clarify. But you asked for it, and we're going to deliver. Just have a listen to Tom Morris shaking in his boots at any slight pushback from Ross Lyon. That's it.
Yeah, but hang on. Have I pushed back on you doing your job? No, no, no, but it's more that you are questioning why we keep asking questions. We're just doing what we're doing. I get it all. Can I ask you that now? No, no, no, I'm happy to dive in and put a pin in it, which I like what Chris said. If we put a pin in it, I feel like I've answered directly with no shying away from the question. So I don't know how I'm becoming the bad guy here. I don't think you are. Does anyone think I haven't answered the question? I don't think you are.
