Back to Michael McLean yesterday on AFL 360. He's the ambassador for Sir Doug Nicholls Round. What a beautiful man he is.
You told some great stories. No, they weren't my stories. No, they weren't yours, but they were on the program last night, weren't they?
No, Gerard interviewed Michael yesterday, and I was driving along, and I was about to go under the...

Chapter 2: What stories did Michael McLean share on AFL 360?
and where my radio cuts out, and I pulled over to keep listening to his story. It was incredible storytelling by him.
What was the most incredible part of the story?
Well, just a quick one. He wears the 51, right? So you go, okay, he had a great first year. He's obviously, you know, and they said, here, you can have number three. He said, no, no, I'll stay with 51. And I said, gee, that's probably the most famous number in footy, nearly, the number three at the Western Bulldogs. He goes, I've never heard of Ted Whitten.
Oh.
That's what he said. Didn't even know who he was. He's a 16-year-old kid. John from Epping. We know who he is. He's from, well, he's from Epping, but he's a North Melbourne man. G'day, Johnny. Good morning, boys. Good morning.
How are you?
We're going well. It's been a big week, hasn't it?
Yeah, I reckon. I reckon. Especially for Scotty Penner, it's going to be a big week.
Yeah, massive. How would you have handled all the spotlight and the pressure that's come with this week?

Chapter 3: Why is Scott Pendlebury's upcoming game significant?
Yeah.
Okay, I watched the game, Brisbane Lion and Geelong. Yep. Geelong had a full team to pick.
Chapter 4: How do players handle pressure in high-stakes games?
They've been playing really well. And Brisbane Lions, they had six of their best players out. Six, no one. And when you have all the six players out like that, you've got no chance to win. Well done to Geelong, they won. But now my point is, little Charlie... He kicked three goals. And on his third goal, they were more than 40 points behind. They were getting trashed. Guess what happened?
They played country roles. What's the point in playing a song when you get trashed? Why do you play a song when you get trashed like that?
To inspire a comeback.
What inspired a comeback?
You're more than 40 points behind. You never know. The crowd might wake them up.
No, to me, I think it was a selfish thing to do it. I don't think it would have been the right thing to do for me anyway. Okay, well... I wouldn't do it if I was in charge, I wouldn't do it.
Right, fair enough too. Anyway, this is one...
Now, we're going to go to the one in the USA about Geelong's salary cap, okay? They've been investigating it from the NFL because they thought they would be, they've been going over the salary cap for years. Now, how the hell... they're going to recruit the top green when they just got investigated from the outfield because they got over the salary cap.
Every two, three years, they're going to pinch one of their best players from other clubs. Where do they get the money from?

Chapter 5: What role does teamwork play in supporting star players?
That's okay to get the money, but how are they going to pay if they're over the salary cap?
Oh, yeah, they've got to manage the salary cap. They've had a couple of little small infractions. They haven't been big ones, have they?
Yeah, but, you know, they've got Jeremy, the one from the Giants. Yeah, yeah. They pay a lot, a lot of money.
Bailey.
Bailey, and they're going to get him as well.
Yeah, and maybe Zach Butters as well. What would you think if Toby Green and Zach Butters turned up at Geelong?
No, I don't think Zach Butters is going to get there. If he's going to go, he's going to have to hold on. But I've got something forgettable about... Zach Barrett as well, but I'm going to let it go this one here for now. Why? What have you got? You can go with it? No, no, no. I've got other stuff. You're holding on to stuff. We've got Ben Zach Barrett, all right?
All right, you're holding back. Just give me a chance. All right, you want to talk about Melbourne.
Did you watch the game in Sydney, Swansea, Collingwood?
