Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Fireball. Fireball. Say yes I didi to heading out after the game. Kogan Mobile 900 gig yearly prepaid plan for $199. Less than 17 bucks a month. Kogan.com. Clickin' awesome. Kane and Kingy. Fireball. Now on Fireball. The Friday Agenda.
That's all for Imar. Protecting tradies and builders for over 35 years. Call 13 Imar to get yourself covered today. Kingy, you asked Andrew Dillon a leading question, I think. For those that missed it, he was asked by Kingy about the Socceroos this morning.
Not firing. We've got a technical issue at the back.
We've got a technical issue. You can recap.
Are you cheering for the Socceroos today or not?
Of course I am.
Of course I am. Long pause. That was a very clever answer. Very clever question. He couldn't possibly be called cheering for the Socceroos, could he? I'm surprised there's no press release about something else happening in the game at midday today. They fight them off pretty hard, don't they?
The ratings, the competition between sports. Interesting. Hey, there's a lot of trade stuff just bubbling away. A lot of names. I just wanted the message to the teams that are at risk of losing a player. Don't stress too hard because some of the recent players that teams have lost... Which ones of these really hurt your club that they've lost? Liam Ryan's left. Did it really hurt West Coast?
Probably not with where they're at. Flanders has left. It didn't really hurt the Suns. Steele's left the Saints. It didn't really hurt the Saints. Clayton Oliver and Petrarca didn't really hurt Melbourne as much as they've been pretty good for their new clubs. Hugo Hagen leaving the Dogs hasn't really hurt. Fiorini hasn't really hurt.

Chapter 2: Are Andrew Dillon and others cheering for the Socceroos today?
Yes, there's the odd exception. Dan Hewson, I thought he was going to hurt, but has he really hurt Port Adelaide? Just don't stress too much. I mean, there's the odd one. Jordan Dawson, of course, Sydney would have loved to have kept. Jeremy Cameron leaving the Giants. Zach Butters is going to hurt. Zach Butters will hurt, but you think that, and then often it doesn't end up being the case.
It's going to hurt. Yeah, that'll sting a little bit. Sting. The ones that I've mentioned, like Lacoste leaving the Suns.
They're not the level of Butters.
Mackay leaving. Luke Jackson absolutely hurt Melbourne. There's no doubt about that. Rankin's probably hurt the Suns a little bit. I just think across the board, 70% of those that leave doesn't really hurt your footy club. So if Zach Bailey leaves Brisbane, don't stress too much, I don't think.
Did you think that the... The mechanics in which Essendon and Hawthorne were going to be able to manufacture the Zach Merritt move and get Essendon a compensation selection, which would have been effectively pick two or three. Do you think someone let that out of the bag too early? Could they have just dropped that late in the year and said, well, these are the rules?
Do you think that was let out of the bag a bit early?
I would like to know how that reached the public and whose initial idea. That's kind of a Hutchie idea.
Can only come from one area.
He's a lateral thinker like that. That's something he would have come up with. But why does it even make the public domain if the AFL have blocked it? Yeah.

Chapter 3: Why shouldn't clubs panic about losing players?
It's still going to be a solid investment. It was a good lateral way of looking at the situation. I really enjoyed that. It would have been carnage if they allowed that to happen.
You tipped, famously, the United States to beat the Aussies 5-0. What's your scoreline today? What are you feeling? 1-1. 1-1? Yep. You think there'll be no Park the Bus? It'll be a bit of a shootout? A little 1-1 action?
Well, not really a shootout.
Chapter 4: Which recent player departures have affected their clubs?
1-1, I think, is the starting line-up announced yet, by the way?
What, are you going to change your thoughts on the starting line-up?
Yeah, I want our best and most damaging players, the most likely ones to hit the back of the net to be playing, not sitting on the bench, would be a good start. So he's in the gun.
Popovich?
Yeah.
Well, I was going to put him in the gun, but you said no, lift the stakes. I had to take the world game off the table.
So you're taking a break next week.
Is that what's happening? I'm actually heading down to Leangatha tomorrow to watch a bit of footy. Leangatha versus Bairnsdale.
So when are you back?
