Transcript

00:00 Alright, I'm joined by Zach Bailey's family in Portland. We've got Brent, his father,

00:04 Georgie's step-mum, Meredith and Bill, grandparents. Guys, looking forward to the weekend. Zach

00:09 playing in the grand final.

00:10 Yeah, it's going to be amazing to watch him on this journey. He's come such a long way

00:15 with the team. So we're just super excited. It's going to be an absolutely amazing weekend

00:20 and we're all cheering him on with the Brisbane Lions. So it's going to be good.

00:25 That's good. I'll ask you, Brent, how do you reckon the Lions will go this weekend?

00:29 You reckon they're a good shot?

00:30 Yeah, I reckon they are. They were sneaked home by a couple of guys. There'll be a close

00:34 game, but yeah, they should get home.

00:38 And Bill and Meredith, you must be proud of your grandson?

00:41 Yes, he's done really well. I think the blood pressure will be up watching this Collingwood

00:46 Brisbane game.

00:47 Both guys have taken extra blood pressure tablets.

00:51 But yeah, the Dimes have done well under Fagan and we're very proud of all of them.

00:58 And you told me most of you used to be Collingwood supporters as well, Collingwood on the weekend.

01:04 I'm there for whoever played Collingwood.

01:08 Yes, we got them young, although the other grandmother was an Adelaide supporter and

01:13 we had a bit of competition to see which ones we could get.

01:17 But I'm sure you'll all be firmly in the Brisbane game.

01:21 Well, thanks for that guys. Appreciate it and good luck on the weekend for Zach.

01:25 Thank you.
