Andrew Maher

We'd have to go anti-clockwise.

Can we just go with a bit of a feel, Andy? Because, you know, someone might just...

I

think you can value that.

Okay.

There's no proof.

Hang on, Andy.

But it plays an impact on everything you do in life.

As we go to the break, here's how Gerard Waitley...

Andy Maher, Brad Johnson and Adam Simpson called the final moments of Saturday's big game.

Will's running the clock.

He's running the gauntlet.

... with Steven Quartermain at the helm there.

You join Gerard Whateley, Andy Maher, Adam Simpson, and Brad Johnson.

Still trying to comprehend all that's taken place.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a coach quite so distressed as Justin Longmuir has been.

Yeah.

I mean, when you talk about it and it, and it arises, I mean, there's only one choice, and it's to go at the game, you know? They challenged us, and they're, they're an unbelievable side.

I said to Andy Brayshaw just then, like, I mean, we lost one first to then go on this run, and I'm sure they'll take plenty of lessons out of it and be a, yeah, a force to be reckoned with in the years to come.

Josh, four-time premiership player.

And, uh, the struggles that you go through, no matter how good you are, and I'm sure there were some this year with some of the defeats that they took, there was an element of vulnerability for a lot of the season.

Which for whatever reason seems to work in their favor, Andy.

If you go back through their seasons, they've never had that Fremantle type perfect, regular season and just, uh, got the job done and s- and sailed in and away you go.

Now obviously Fremantle had a, a big hiccup in, in the first game in losing that and coming through the hard way, but, uh, they, they have always had those challenges and that can be taxing.

... than it was back in those days

...

I think everyone would agree with that, Andy.
