Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?
Breakfast with Gary and Tim. Morning, everyone.
Welcome. Welcome. Thursday, June the 4th, it is. Got a very nice show for you today. The McCafe menu. Try McCafe's new drink range. Alex the Great Volkanovski, the UFC featherweight champ. He's going to join us out of 8 o'clock. And the Whisp is full bottle. He's been researching furiously for the last two days. He's ready to go. A lean, clean Tom Green couldn't join us yesterday.
He's going to join us out of 7 o'clock today. That'll be great. Sam Edmund with all the news. Corey Mabilio. the champion data sensation, the number two man with a bullet, and Troy Little with an update on our greyhound, John from Epping, just to find out how that little bitch is going. Oh, Gary, please. Well, it's a young boy. There's no way to start the program.
Chapter 2: Who are the guests featured in today's show?
Tim, I've got the report here, and they described her as a very forward little bitch. Yes. Yep. No, all that is true. Good morning to you. Great to see you again. Great to see you again. What's wrong with you? Nothing is wrong with me. That's the name of the female dog. Oh, I know. I know. I know. But, you know, sometimes people take it out of context.
Well, they shouldn't because that's the name of it. I grew up with greyhounds. That's the way me and my pop used to talk. I know. You and I are a team now. Go and get that brindle bitch and bring her out the front, will you? I said, all right. I get dragged into anything that goes to air on this program that you have to say. That's all. So I just need you to censor yourself.
I don't have to censor myself about that. Not in this case. Not in this case. Just quickly, too, by the way. I've finished the doc. I've finished the doc, the RAF doc, okay? You'll need a box of tissues for the last episode. That's all I'm going to say this morning. Not Uncle Tony again. Uncle Tony brought me to tears last night. He did. I'm not going to spoil it for anyone. No, you can't.
I don't think I'm going to watch it. Just do yourself a favour. If there's one sporting doc you watch this year, the RAFA one on Netflix has to be the one. It has to be the one. If I get a chance, because today might be the day. You'll love it. Because have a listen to the weather. Just have a listen to what this man had to say.
And some parts of Melbourne is expected to receive a month's worth of rain today.
That's this man being Nate, our newsman. A month's worth of rain today in Melbourne. It'll be the greatest day of the year. That's what I describe as a nail gun day. You nail gun the door shut and you're locked in for the day. Magnificent. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you how windy it was last night. I went out this morning and all the rabbits are nude this morning.
They've all had their fur blown off overnight. Is it windy? Oh, windy. Windy? Brando, he didn't even spend a minute in the lounge room last night. He was into the bedroom on his bed very early in the piece. Gee, we've got a lot of stuff to get through today. I've got a lot of different topics to talk about.
The most serious and most important and most significant was Bec Danaher and Jan Danaher going to the MCG yesterday and addressing the Collingwood and Melbourne football clubs together. Bec then joined us last night on AFL 360. What an extraordinarily strong, just admirable family, aren't they? They are, they are, they are, they are.
There's nothing more that you can say about them that hasn't already been said, but they are so inspirational, this family. And when that whole play on thing, you know, I thought the great line yesterday was he showed us hope isn't something that you wait for, you create. You don't wait for hope. You can go out and create your own hope. Yeah. And that's a great message to send out to people.

Chapter 3: What insights are shared about the greyhound named John from Epping?
It's the start of it. He says Andrew Gaze was part of the birth of San Antonio's dynasty with the Twin Towers, Tim Duncan and Dave Robinson. So he's just put himself into that category, which you didn't tell me he was right up there with those two. Even I know those two greats. Oh, no, they were firm, those three. That trio used to roll around together.
He plays all that sort of stuff down because, as I said before, he's very, very modest. Well, they fly him over for this. I wouldn't be surprised if Pop reaches out and flies him over. Well, Pop hasn't been in great health, so maybe not Pop that will be reaching out to him, but somebody from the organisation.
Surely they'd want him sitting courtside for the playoff series because can you imagine the inspiration for some of those players to look up and see Gacy sitting there on the sidelines in his Spurs gear and his get-up? How inspiration would that be?
And I wouldn't be surprised if they called him in pre-game just to have a word because he said, and I quote, I was prepared to be ready and work hard. When I did speak to Pop, he said he'd watch me from afar. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets called in for a bit of that stuff. Wouldn't you think? He'd be up for it. He'd be nervous today. He'd be beside himself.
He'd be like a cat on a hot tin roof, he would be. I'm a Knicks man, so that puts me at odds straight away with the great man. And that photo that you've talked about, I wonder where they got that from. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. They must have reached into their archives to find that. But it's a great read. It's in the Herald Sun today.
And for a lot of kiddies out there that are listening to the program now, they won't know the history of the San Antonio Spurs. It's a good read. And the headline, you want to know the headline? Yes, please. Gaze into the future. Oh, nice. He would have written that too. I reckon he wrote the whole thing and sent it in with the photo. No, he would not have.
He's as modest as any champion Australian sportsman I've ever come across. I just didn't realise that he used to hang out with those two big blokes. Yeah. Somebody suggested that his job there, because they were so tall, the Twin Towers, Tim Duncan and David Robinson, he was actually employed by the Spurs. When their shoelaces came untied, they couldn't reach down. Now I won't have that.
So that was part of what they wanted Gacy to do. And the time that he was there, they never tripped up on their shoelaces once.
That's how diligent he was.

Chapter 4: How does Tom Green view his future at the Giants?
Well, organic, that's what that was. Dennis Mustard just snuck into my subconscious. But you can have a listen to Nilo's 10 favourite songs on Bunnings Tradio. Well, yeah, I even recognised them. So a very nice word indeed. Hey, we'll take a break. We'll come back. I've got a lot of topics to get through. We've got a very busy show. Alex the Great Volkanovski is going to join us out of 8 o'clock.
Tommy Green, Sammy Edmund, Corey Mobilio. And we'll just get an update on how a little greyhound A little female greyhound is running at the moment. Thank you. That's coming up.
I'm going to say it, boys. That was centimetre per. What a kick.
Breakfast with Gary and Tim. At our fond family. The Ramble for Cobram Estate. Australia's most awarded extra virgin olive oil. Grown, harvested and first cold pressed in Northern Victoria.
Great to have you with us this morning on this Thursday that Adelaide take on Geelong at Adelaide Oval tonight. 7.30, big game. We'll get through that. Corey Mabilio will come in and give us all the relevant stats. I just want to play some... This is Jo Weston. I never met Jo Weston before. She is...
netball royalty when you look at her cv she's as good a netball player as we've produced in recent times she's part of the slide on monday she joined us last night on afl 360 so i want to play this um a little bit of audio here in his passing as well it's just been so sad but
with Beck as well. She's been involved with netball for a long time. Jan actually worked at Boroondara Netball Association, which is where I played a bit of my junior netball as well. So I sort of had that small Melbourne circle connection as well.
And it's just been, you know, so it's actually quite hard to articulate how impressive his fight has been, you know, putting himself forward to be so courageous to really assist others, hopefully in the future. And yeah, I'm just really honoured to be a part of Monday.
Gosh, she was impressive last night. Could not have been more impressive. You know, when we interview so many people and different, mainly AFL players probably come through, gee, they could take a leaf out of her book last night. She was prepared. She knew what she was on there for. She knew what she was talking about. She spoke beautifully. It was refreshing, Tim. It was very, very impressive.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of bringing back a player after a long absence?
He had five ops. He had this bad infection. He has played 76 games. He's kicked 126 goals. You know his goal average is better than Cozzy Pickett and Nick Watson, don't you? No, I didn't know that, no. He is a very good footballer, this bloke, and we haven't seen him for a long time.
But don't underestimate the capacity that he has, and that mightn't happen for a few weeks, obviously, when you've been out this long, but the fact they brought him straight back in is a very interesting decision, isn't it? Yeah, it actually is an amazing decision.
And what do you, like, we know that it's far more scientific the way the players are prepared and they go through the GPS numbers and that type of thing.
Chapter 6: How does player preparation differ in modern AFL?
But there's this thing called touch. and being out there at speed. And I think there's a physical adjustment that needs to take place. Now, I'm sure he's been doing a lot of physical worker training and that type of thing, but the fact that he's actually in a game, they're not going at the same speed that AFL players are going to be going at. Well, why have they brought him in, you reckon?
Well, I think there's a sign of desperation associated with this as well. They've got Artie Jones. He's playing some great small forward footy. I don't know about desperation, do you? Well, you have to consider there's an act of desperation based on this because the guy hasn't played for pretty much two seasons and you're bringing him straight back into the team.
Now, I'm not saying that they haven't been diligent in their preparation of him, but I'm just saying that, you know, why wouldn't you give him a week or two out in the VFL side just to get his legs, his proper footy legs underneath him? Like, he's going to blow up. There's no way known you can be out of football that long and not blow up quickly and find it difficult.
I agree with you.
Just the touch and all that thing. So why else would you bring him back if there's not some sort of form of desperation about winning the team? They must think he's at the capability and level where he can contribute in a meaningful way. And they've got no question about that. Will Day, for instance, came back and played through the VFL. Yeah.

Chapter 7: What factors influence team selection and player performance?
Hawthorne must have wanted to see him get through that. In this instance, and they'll live and die by the decision, they're going to say, no, we're not going to worry about him through the VFL. We think he's ready to go and he's coming straight in. And yeah, he has got a better goal average. This person says, from two blokes that play in the midfield. No, they don't. Nick Watson...
fleetingly goes into the midfield this year. He hasn't been a midfielder in his short career, and Cozzy's just become a damaging midfielder this year. So I know there are people that want to talk him down, but his goal average is outstanding. And I went back over and had a look at it. He's just a natural goal kicker. That's what he is.
He kicks goals, and he has done it consistently for a long period of time, or in the early stages of his career. And they're pretty, pretty impressive numbers too, I reckon. Now, what does our man Brooks say, given that nobody follows the Bulldogs closer than him and Hattie? What is he saying about it? Woody in the morning. He wants him back in the side. Hey, I wish him well, by the way.
Chapter 8: What insights can we gain about the upcoming AFL matches?
I'm not trying to death right him in anyway. I hope he's fantastic. I hope he's brilliant. And clearly they know more than what you and I would in terms about the preparation and his conditioning, all those sorts of things. But what I'm saying is it is a massive, massive ask. Yeah, I agree with you.
To pick up the speed of the game and not have some form of rust after all that time on the sidelines. Yeah. Billy, quickly, it's in Ascot Vale on Cody Wakeman. Go, Bill.
Yeah, morning, Jack. You touched on the subject that I was just about to tell you about. I'm surprised with Cody Wakeman. I mean, it is a big risk. I know you just mentioned about World Day coming back, but World Day sort of missed only a couple of months, a few months. I mean, we're talking two years. I'm just wondering if it's a risk to Cody himself. That's all I'm worried about.
Yeah, well, I'm pretty sure they'd have his welfare at the top of their priority. So in their minds, he's ready to go. That's what I can say confidently. And then we'll sit back and watch on Friday night. It's a big stage for him to come back against a quality opposition. So it'll be an interesting watch. Let's take some 7.30 news headlines. Great to have you with us.
It is great to have you with us. And your interactions are welcome on this program always. A lot of passionate people out there. A lot of passionate footy people out there. A lot of people want to send me monkey videos. Is there nothing a monkey can't do? This might be the end of the day for me. I'm going to have to straighten up when the vault comes on because I'm getting all these monkey videos.
We've got water skiing monkeys. Water skiing monkeys. They're clever, aren't they? Well, they would appear to be. They would appear to be. What sort of monkeys are they? They're not chimps, are they? They're clever ones. They look more like an Asian monkey. type. Hey, I've had a look at the teams for tonight. Now he's driving the speedboat.
Now I've lost him.
Now I've lost him. That's the end of the story. He's driving the speedboat. I know he's driving the speedboat. He hijacked it. Listen to me. You're going to laugh in the ad break. Geelong are going in tonight against the Adelaide Crows with no recognised ruckman. They're just going to go with Mark Blitzer. Are you worried about that from a Cats point of view?
No, because they've always got a solid play in the Cats. They look at the opposition. They look at areas where they can exploit them. And it's an insight, I think, probably for the rest of the competition as to what you can do against the Adelaide Crows maybe to find an advantage. I wouldn't underestimate Lachie McAndrew. No, I like him.
