Chapter 1: What are the initial questions without notice in footy?
Breakfast with Gary and Tim. The Imar Trade-Off. Questions without notice. For Imar. Protecting tradies and builders for over 35 years. Call 13-IMAR to get covered today.
Got clear air between now and 9 o'clock. We'll hand over to Gerard Waitley. But between now and then, the show is yours. Our interaction is what means the most to us. So 043-911-16. Questions without notice. 1-300-736-736. Do it the old style way and call up.
You're in trouble. Why? Because Maury said, Gary, if your anesthetist is listening, you won't like the fact that you've got a cough. So will you have to declare your cough before you go in for your operation? Maury.
Good question. I've got enough stress without you jumping in. It's just a little tickle. That's all it is. Morrie set me off now. Got enough pressure on me, Morrie, without you throwing that into the mix. This is a question. It's not mine. It's Damien's. We give attribution on this program. Not everyone does in the world of media.
Chapter 2: How does the conversation shift to coaching decisions in footy?
Some people just pinch your ideas and run with them with no attribution.
All right. I've got a pen here. I want names. Who's pinching your stories and not giving attribution?
No, I'm just talking generally, not necessarily mine. If Fraser's telling the truth, Josh Fraser, and he doesn't want the blues job. Good morning to Scotty Gullen out there. Would he be listening to the show this morning, Scotty, or not? No, don't put Scotty Gullen into it. If Josh Fraser is telling the truth and says he's not ready to coach, then he won't be a Carlton next year. Why? True or not.
Why?
Why?
Well, how would you feel if you get the job? Great. And then Josh Fraser sitting there has just ripped the coaching job to shreds. Are you going to keep him at your club? 100% you are. Why wouldn't you?
It's all positive. If he genuinely doesn't want the job and you are confident enough in your own ability, he's got a great relationship with the players. You know that he can coach based on what he's been able to produce. Why wouldn't you keep him?
No, that's a good point. But if it goes a bit pear-shaped, would you be thinking, oh, the players will be looking over my shoulder. They'll be going, oh, Josh, we didn't have this problem when Josh was coaching us.
Well, no, maybe they would. But if things were starting to go a bit pear-shaped, you might just tap him on the shoulder and say, listen,

Chapter 3: What insights are shared about player interviews and communication?
I'll go out there and face the media, but I'll hand the reins of the actual coaching over to you because you did such a fine job last year, as long as you maintain the idea that I'm still the senior coach. You're not taking it seriously. Well, I just don't think that it would be a problem having him there.
Maybe I'm wrong. No, I'm asking. This is Damien, who I hadn't even thought about it. Damien asked the question. I was just wondering whether or not it would be, you've got this man who's done this unbelievable job. The players have connected with him. They love the way he's gone about it. And then Wisp comes in to go, oh, welcome, boys.
I'm the coach, and loses his first four, and they're looking at him going... Well, why didn't they put Josh in? Because we had this problem when Josh was playing.
Some people might feel really threatened. I think the day's gone where you could come in as the senior coach and then say, look, I've got all my people with me. This is my team. They're coming with me. Are those days gone?
Maybe this is the answer off the temper text. Put your name to the text so we can give you the attribution. Experienced coach will keep him. A rookie coach will get rid of him.
Experience coach. Yeah, maybe, but they're probably, I don't know. Okay, so hypothetically.
Anyway, it's a great question. It is a great question. We'll be in the running, I think.
Hypothetically, if they named John Longmire as the coach, I reckon John would be confident enough in his own ability to want to keep him.

Chapter 4: How do the hosts discuss the current state of Carlton's coaching situation?
But hypothetically, maybe if they went with, let's just pluck a name, James Kelly or Hayden Skipworth, I think they'd be happy to keep him too, wouldn't they?
I don't know. I think it's a very good question that I hadn't heard anyone talk about. So well done, Damo. Carl's in Camberwell. He wants to do a bit of questions without notice, or is he just making a statement? G'day, Carl.
Hey, guys. I just wanted to make a bit of a statement, and it's simply this. I think that the way the young footballers are interviewed these days and the way they respond to the interviews, they are amazingly articulate. Way, way... better than people give them credit for. I think they speak exceptionally well.
I thought you were going to say way, way better than you, Blake, were back in the day. And I'm going to say, wash your mouth out, Carl. You know, Gary used to host the squadron on a Sunday. They don't get that job on one way.
Chad Corns, he's in the media now. He was at Port Adelaide. He's in the media. He's got the capacity to talk about anything. And he had this to say about an absent Josh Whittle from the Adelaide Crows.
Just a bit of a watch on Worrell this week, Kimbo. Have you got a little bit of loss, have you? If selection doesn't go his way, it might have been a little off-field incident, possibly. He's a goody two-shoes, too. I would have thought so, and he's so important. I'm assuming he comes straight back in, but if he doesn't, Kimbo, just remind me later in the week.
And then the Texan who was asked about it, Tex Walker that I'm talking about, had this to say.
Chad said that, did he?

Chapter 5: What are the implications of coaching changes in football?
It's interesting. You know, he played at Port. He might be stirring that pot.
Do you think he's up to a little bit of skullduggery, Chad, or not?
We'll find out when the team's getting announced. Okay, here's the add-on question without notice. I think Brookhart posed this when we were talking about it. If, in fact, there was a disciplinary reason that they dropped Josh Whittle and they were going to give him another week off, now that Chad said it, would they play him just to spite him? No, they wouldn't do that.
So it doesn't look like they have been caught out.
No. There'd be no integrity at the place if that was the case at all. Dave's in Box Hill. Can we quickly take his call? Very quickly, yep.
Good morning, boys. Just real quick about sugar. I'm a landscaper, so I burn off energy like you wouldn't believe. I put on about 10 kilos of weight. I was freaking out so much. I went to the doctor. I couldn't think of anything I'd changed. All I had changed in my routine was a muesli bar and a liquid breakfast. Not a VP, but a liquid breakfast for the morning just to get me going.
Then I looked at the ingredients, 14 teaspoons of sugar. Now, and I stopped there, mate, back to my normal plain weight. And just a quickie, four grams of sugar equals one teaspoon, right? So I'm thinking, would I sit there at the counter with my black coffee putting 14 teaspoons in my coffee? No. No, you would not, Davey.

Chapter 6: How does the episode address the importance of player relationships?
Good point, Dave. Good point. Nice. Brought that up. There's sugar everywhere, Whispers. You've got to be aware. Someone suggested a very good doco. I'll chase it down and I'll suggest it for you on the back of the news headlines. Worrell, not Weddle. Thank you for the 43 people. See, 38 of them were nice. Gazza was Worrell, not Weddle. You made a mistake. One, you moron.
You do that deliberately. I've noticed that over time.
No, I didn't.
Just to see if people are actually taking notice.
I didn't do it deliberately. I got mucked up. So first mistake for the year. Joel's in Bataclan. Go, Joel.
Good morning, boys. I've got a couple of points for you.
Very quickly, Jolly.
Yes, with these players coming in, the Collingwood set-up, how they're going to run straight onto the ground, I've been wanting that to happen since I was a kid.
It's the biggest waste of time ever, and I think that if the players ran straight through the banner, straight into their positions with a big song playing, it'd get the crowd up and about rather than sitting there waiting for 20 minutes for the players to run onto the ground. Now, boys, I want to ask you another question about Carlton, and please be honest with me.

Chapter 7: What is the significance of halftime music during games?
I believe that right now we're in the best position we've been in 30 years. I was 11 the last time we won a premiership. And I feel like for the first time since John Elliott and David Parkham were in charge, we've actually got people in charge of the club that are making the right decisions. And first time ever, we're not being rushed into a decision. Josh Fraser's doing ridiculous things.
And I think he'd be a wonderful coach, but we're not rushing it. And I honestly believe, and especially if we get Cody Walker, the Blues are set up. for the next 10 years, do you guys think that we are in a better position than we've been in the last 30 years right now if we make the right decisions?
In the last 30 years, we'd have to do a little bit more examination of the last 30 years, but I think you're okay. Gary, on Joel's point, do you think they've got right now, do you think in their midst they've got a goal-to-goal? Let's just look at their goal-to-goal line. Have they got a premiership contending goal-to-goal line?
It's okay, Tim. This is classic Carlton, though, if you don't mind me saying. Rather than just go... I'll put a pin in the blue. Rather than just go, this is the best we've been in 30 years and we're going to win this, our next premiership side. How about going, geez, we were one and eight. We're going terrible. We've won five. Let's just try and win this week. This is A-grade.
Do you think Joel's getting ahead of himself?
No, I love it. I love the enthusiasm. The passion. They've gone from the depths of despair where the joint was going to get shut and Patrick Cripps was going to get traded and Harry was going to get traded and Walsh was no good. And now it's the best they've been. I love it. Don't ever lose it, Joel. My advice would be concentrate on West Coast this week.

Chapter 8: How do the hosts evaluate the impact of players on team dynamics?
See if you can't get over that one and continue the role.
Did you have a question about Daryl Braithwaite before we take a break? I have after the break.
Breakfast with Gary and Tim.
Darryl Braithwaite has retired from doing live gigs. Say it ain't so, Daz. Say it ain't so. He was a big part of Cox Plate Day where they play horses. Yes, yes. Massive, massive. So well done. He's been an icon. Rick has sent a few messages. I wouldn't go to the WhatsApp group just to get your opinions. Rick, just be a bit broader than that.
Opinions of like-minded people generally think the same way, but appreciate you being a part of our show and we love you coming on and continue to contribute.
I believe also, I don't know whether this has been reported anywhere, but this is a first. I believe that after Matty Cotterill, what he did post-game of Carlton's win at the weekend, if they win this weekend, they've got something very special planned, Carlton. What? They're bringing back the old band.
We love to just one man. Stand by your man. And tell the world you love me.
That is the great sticks.
He'd be thrilled with that stick. The only thing missing is a little bit of harmonica. If they could include a little bit of Matty Cottrell's harmonica into that, now you'd talk.
