Chapter 1: What is the significance of the Toyota Unbreakable Fan of the Year?
Breakfast with Gary and Tim. The Toyota Unbreakable Fan of the Year.
Tundra, ready for everything. Contact your local dealer today. Toyota helping grassroots clubs raise thousands a year. 1-300-736-736. We'll take as many calls as we can as we head towards 9 o'clock. Tommy Morris, you've left all your medications. Come back. He's got that busy, he's left all his special medications in the studio.
He's drained a little bottle of immune super shot. He left it here. And then he's got his nasal spray decongestant. He's left that here too. In amongst all that, we're talking obviously about Michael Voss and the fact that he stood down as coach of Carlton. But, hey, Tim and Gary, every time there's a coach sack, the Bulldogs play them that way.
There's a bit of that coming through. Steve's in Sydney. G'day, Steve. Line's open. 1-300-736-736. Morning, Gaz. Morning, Tim. Hey, Steve.
I've heard about 20 names come up in the last hour about coaching success. What about if Josh Fraser wins the 10 of his next 15 as an interim coach?
Well, that is possible. Tim, if he won 10 of 15, would he get the job?
Well, they'd interview him. He'd be part of it. So they have to stick with their process and they've got to then name the best candidate. But that would be a strong endorsement of his coaching ability if that was the case.
There's been success and non-success of clubs that have been seduced by the interim coach having a good run and then thinking, oh, yeah, well, he's the man. Ross, sorry, Paul Ruse's. Always the example of how it does work. He went on to coach them to the drought-breaking premiership, but there are plenty of others that have been interims appointed that haven't quite worked out.

Chapter 2: What happened with Michael Voss and the Carlton coaching situation?
Yeah, I just wonder in those cases whether they abandoned the process because of what they'd seen with that person. Then they didn't measure them against what else was out there. Tony's in Craigieburn. Good morning, Tony.
Morning, boys. Just a quick one. Nathan Buckley was in the opposition coach's box on Saturday night. And do we feel that he gave some inside information to Scotty about certain Collingwood players because of the inside knowledge? Is that a... And then you've got Dawson Heppel for Collingwood against Essendon.
Is he really, like, I guess it's all hands off or all rules are off when players change clubs and coaching capacities? Yeah, no, Tone, I hope, DeLong supporters would hope that Nathan Buckley was giving as much information about Collingwood players and how they potentially played and their strengths and weaknesses.
That's called taking the intellectual property to a new club and it's one of the reasons why, you know, Coaches who have been at successful clubs are so highly sought after because opposition clubs want to get in behind the curtain and find out what they're doing that might be a little bit different to them and what's led to such great success. So, no, there's no problem with that.
It's not immoral at all.
Andy Collins, we saw him recently on the sidelines with Port Adelaide coaching against Hawthorne. So he would have known the players intimately as well. I'm getting a number of text messages from Carlton supporters out there who I know who do not want them to put a coach in as interim coach that's going to start winning games.
They're quite happy and comfortable to keep losing for the rest of the season.
Yeah, well that ā For obvious reasons. Yeah, for draft picks and the fact that they've got Cody Walker coming. I think what it does do is it takes ā the story now ā this is what I said the other week. Anyway, when the coach goes, apart from today and tomorrow and probably the next day, then the focus goes from Carlton.
Like, you know, we don't ā they're not going to be the focus of the broader footy attention anymore. If they lose again, it's not ā Well, what's going to happen to the coach? It's, oh, well, that's why the coach has gone. So they get some clear air, and they can make changes.

Chapter 3: How does interim coaching impact team performance?
Both. Well, they were last week. The week before, okay. So that stacks up. Yeah. Whatever they're doing in terms of- In the home and away. Yeah, but that's what you use as your guide when you're doing your premiership window. Correct. The home and away- Correct. Statistics- Yep. To state whether or not that team was in the premiership window. Yep.
So they are clearly in the premiership window by the way they play. So they're not just stacking up in an offensive sense, they're stacking up in a defensive sense as well.
Whereas Melbourne, who aren't as good- Well, they're not as good as Sydney, let's face it, but- Their offense has been terrific, but they, on the other hand, are getting opened up coming back the other way. So there's still plenty of work for Stephen King to do in terms of being a really aggressive attacking team.
This is the way we want to play, but they are also getting scored against back the other way.
What did North Melbourne need just to tip them off? over from where they're at right now. They've been super competitive against the best teams in the competition, and they're right up to push his bow against Geelong up until three-quarter time. They've pushed the Brisbane Lions. They've pushed the Sydney Swans. What is it that they're currently missing? About 12 months. I reckon.
Another 12 months of development and improvement.
No, I think they've improved markedly, but their defence is where they need to get better at. So whether that's system, whether that's personnel, that's the area I think they need to get better at. And, you know, Clarko's coaching them hard. Clarkson's system can take some time. But I think there's signs there that they're very much on the right path. Don't you?
Yeah, no, I do.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of coaches sharing insider information?
I think they're so close to be able to do it. Like they've become a really hard team to play against. I'm really looking forward. I'll tell you what I'm looking forward to. I'm looking forward to Johnny Ralph's interview with Jonathan Brown. What time is that? You said you flew up there. I've seen nothing of you.
I've seen a lot of stuff in the Herald Sun and a lot of stuff coming out from Johnny Ralph. He's released a photo of Jonathan Brown this morning with the cut on his head.
Yes. No, that is on tonight at 7.30, and I'd encourage everyone to watch this Jonathan Brown documentary because he tells a remarkable story. There's been a bit of it in the paper, but he does tell a remarkable story.
How long did you sit down with him for?
Well, the interview went for about 40-odd minutes, so it'll be chopped up a bit and cut down to 30. But, you know, I flew up after Thursday. Yes, last Thursday you flew up. I got there about 11 and spent the day with him and flew home that night. And I got a shock. I walked in. I didn't know what to expect, you know. He's had major surgery, major brain surgery.
The top of his head pulled off, basically. And I walked in and he was, unsurprisingly, urging home a winner at the Warrnambool races.
So he was the Jonathan Brown that you knew.
Pretty much. Pretty much. Which was great news. He gave, though, didn't he, in that interview? There was a vulnerability about him in that interview. Well, I think your own mortality flashes right between your eyes when someone says you've got a brain tumour. I don't know about you, but it starts to shake you to the core.
Yeah. Some people open up about that stuff, though, and some people find it too personal to talk about. Yeah, no, that is true.
