Great idea about the blokes also singing the first verse of the song. It sounds so much better. Also, during away matches I reckon it’d be great to sing the song out on the ground at the boundary in front of our supporters instead of back in the quiet rooms. I great recognition for the interstate supporters.
I’m in my mid 60s and don’t really listen to podcast, but “Better Down Back” is a hoot. I think it could rival “The Footy Show” back in the 80s and 90s. But my suggestion for Youngy’s nick name is “Speed”. Cause he reminds me of Keanu Reeves, when he has his hair tied back. So perhaps that has some context behind the name. Great episode. Cheers.
These insights into the characters and personalities of the players are gold! You two are doing an awesome job with this podcast.. now my #1 go-to after each weekend.
Hayden Young and Jordan Clark pulling off awesome season for the club, keep it up lads, finals beckons. For the AFLW side, congrats to Ange for making captain, best of luck to the girls, hopefully you all have a great season coming up.
Draper was so ripped off not getting this week's Rising Star, but having the respect of his team mates would mean so much to a young player - great job guys!
Cheers for playing my voice memo, love ya too Jordy, I actually happen to have one of your stealth jumpers in my collection as well 👌 Youngy was a brilliant guest, would love to see the unicorn up next 🤞 Ps the shuffling of cameras in and out of shots became a drinking game for us in the end 😂😂
A very interesting episode. I enjoyed Youngy's overview of his own development as a player and a person. He is quite personable and a pleasure to listen to. Great episode allround.. Keep it going. Would it be possible to entice Nathan Wilson on to talk about his transition from AFL to WAFL and how he maintains contact with the Freo players....
The girls do the song so much better, the guys could definitely take a lesson from them and sing it the same way. The verse first is such a great build up rather than just repeating the chorus twice
Love the Podcast! Clarky and Drisco are a great combination. My only complaint though is that this promises to be a podcast celebrating defenders, yet we haven't had a single defender on as a guest. Hopefully that changes next week! Go Freo!
Happy to have discovered this podcast. Hearing the players voices is interesting. And learning about them and their personalities is informative. How would Youngie like to be called Oldie? Golden Oldie (being blond) could morph into Goldie.
Going strong guys, keep it up. I reckon maybe Lazer or Laz for Hayden, on account of his lethal kicks. Probably Ears for Jordan due to his actively listening habits. Wouldn't mind a multi-guest pod ie: Dogga and Onions or Coxy, Lukey and one of the younger boys like Chappy. Funny hearing the voice memo about the headband, I was thinking the exact same thing after the game. Feels like a good omen if Ears gets his head split open haha. Shoutout to Brett as well, he has been around for years back when the videos were getting 24 views. I'll shut up now, go Freo!
Great show guys loving the banter. Good episode with Youngy I reckon the lads can do better than squid...how about the surgeon, hes always composed and kicks the ball with the surgical precision
Media team, we've gotta get mounted mics for everyone, these headsets aren't working out. I think Em is too fidgety, plenty of noise getting picked up. We don't want our Em to change, so the headsets gotta go
