Podcasts about Lachie Neale

Nothing wrong with exploring, experimenting and pinch hitting, but highest and best use is always the most productive policy. Time to Restump Podcast all the latest goings on at Cockburn central.Other than getting some miles in the legs, a preseason blowout and learning the Freo Dockers don't believe in open borders, there wasn't too much to take away from the kick to kick at Victor Kalis Saturday morning.However, there was a conspicuous emphasis on using the Cockburn corridor. The instruction obviously was to move it down the middle at all costs, something you imagine we're attempting to take into the season proper, albeit with a bit more selectiveness and caution. Was the state of origin as exciting a prospect as we're seemingly made or told to believe? It was a good spectacle but from a meaningful and emotional investment perspective, it felt more in the range of well below a home and away game and marginally above an exhibition match. Are we really pushing on with the intention of having Luke Jackson play substantial midfield minutes? Surely his highest and best use supersedes the experiments? And as we're not discarding another Darcy dash to Doha, Jackson's ruck fate may well be sealed. Luke Ryan seems to be a little off the pace at the moment which is a tad concerning, especially as the responsibility for our success this year feels like it relies on the fitness of him, Alex Pearce and Brennan Cox. Oscar aside, the lack of tall defender depth does make us a little nervous.  But all fit and available, do we have the cattle this year to go all the way? Or are we a Chad Warner away from as finished a product as you can be? Jojo has welcomed a few listeners to his Mount Hawthorn bar which he describes as a “relaxed, light driven, open atmosphere” so we'll get an update there. But on more important matters the Chief wants a ruling from the self-appointed booing gatekeeper, Gerard Whatley, regarding Lachie Neale. We're getting close to the siren to start the season! Its that time of year where the nerves are starting to creep in, they're duelling with the excitement that is building all while trying to stave off cautious optimism. It's the annual mixed emotional melting pot!All that in deeper discussion and a shedload more unenlightening nonsense that could well prove detrimental to your cognitive well-being. But hey, wee all take refuge in the concussion protocols, should they be required. So, suit up, forget looking before you leap and just dive head first into an hour of inevitable traumatic brain injury generated listening. Send a textSupport the show

If at first you don't succeed, pivot, and destroy all the existing evidence of your attempt. We landed a tad wide of the Strategic Plan mark but it was a learning experience. We learnt not to set the bar so unrealistically high! Time to get 2026 underway and Restump Podcast the views and news in purple shoes.The Strategic Plan is out and the 2030 Game Plan is in. We've rewired, replumbed, reset and restumped largely with all the same elements in the same positions. Is that a lack of accountability or an admission the bar was just mistakenly and unnecessarily set too high? Either way you don't disrupt positive trajectory.There has been plenty of talk about Mason Cox since his arrival. He is a handy addition but do we really believe he will be in the regular fully fit starting line up? Do we really expect anything beyond the insurance policy from the near on 35-year-old? Did we miss an opportunity to hand the captaincy baton over to Andy Brayshaw or Caleb Serong? Alex Pearce will do the job but with the end of the ‘strategic plan' era and moving into this ‘2030 Game Plan' period, maybe a fresh captaincy start might have been in order? Again, though is it a case of not disrupting positive trajectory?We'll take a look at the recruits and reluctantly touch on the Lachie Neale saga in relation to Freo. Are we revved up for state of origin or are we just praying for our players to get through unscathed? First pod of the year and unfortunately the Chief is already indulging in hysterical outrage, ranting about some inconsequential nonsense. And with his new thirst-quenching establishment now up and running, we'll get the update from Barman Jojo about what's doing there. It's been a while between our purple passionfruit podcast drinks but the pre-season is just starting to gather some pace. So, why not go over the off-season developments, look at the foreseeable freo forecast and add some unnecessary purple noise pollution to the mix. We've given everyone's ears a well-earned and extended rest to recover, but sadly all good things come to an end. We apologise for the subsiding of the serenity of silence, but we're resurrecting the ridiculous rigmarole. For those whose listening standards are lower than our premiership count, by all means, join us for another year, starting now.Send us a textSupport the show

After a strong end to the home & away season, the whiplash that has defined 2025 has returned - and this one hurts more than all the others combined. Following the most disappointing finals effort the Lions have turned in since 2022's Prelim, our hopes of another September to remember have suddenly nosedived. The news of Lachie Neale & Eric Hipwood's season ending injuries only sours things further, with the growing optimism of the last few weeks suddenly feeling a long way away. And now, in a scenario that has felt unthinkable for much of the last fifteen years, we find ourselves preparing for a knockout semi-final… against the Suns. We're the first reigning premier to make the finals since Melbourne in 2022, who found themselves up against a young, ambitious QLD side who knocked them out in straight sets away from home. Will history repeat itself this weekend, or will the good side of the whiplash work its magic again, resigning Damien Hardwick to the same fate he faced the last time he coached a knockout final at the Gabba in 2022?    Also this week:-Mike recaps a wild 48 hours in Perth covering the first Suns final-Is it finally time to return to two tall forwards?-The AFLW Lions are following the same script as the men And much more!
