Yep he is according to the promos. Will be just another look at what has been said over the pre-season I would imagine.

Anyone able to to record and upload the Benny interview to youtube or similar?

Those of us in the North are not 'blessed' with such programming.

Cheers

I can't upoad it or anything, and I'm watching it delayed, but if no one has posted a brief outline of what he's said by the time I watch it I'll pop in and let you know. Im sure someone will beat me to the punch

Seriously, Caro gets uglier every year.

But CHRIST Lyon gets more stupid every year. Seriously, what sort of question is this:

Lyon: So do you expect to win on Thursday Night?
Gale: *Stares at Gary like he is some sort of moron* Of course we are.
Lyon: Is that realistic or the CEO inside you that wants that result?
Gale: Both.

Nah Gary... he is going to say "Actually no, we don't. We just want the boys to try."

Tosser.

They spent most of the interview talking about Cousins. Gale completely shot down Caro for stirring shit and writing complete bullshit.

They touched on the topic of 3-0-75, not really much said there. Gale said that without high expectations, there is no outcome.

Gale said last year's match was shocking, and he expects the boys to redeem themselves.

They didn't interview him well at all, they basically just focused on Cousins...

Urgh. Turned it on to find out they're talking about the Dogs now. BOOO!!!

Can anyone give a rundown of what happened?
Courtesy of one-eyed on OER:

* Great to back (at the club)

* Biggest surprise - lack of footy involvement. Lots of good people controlling those sides of things. Looking more after the commercial side.

* Needs to get the basics right. Senior managemtn and board transparent where we are at. A transforming job.

* AFLPA has different demands (caro asked is it a bludged compared to a club CEO role). Higher level of accountability at club level given you've got the pasion of members and fans.

* Cousins not at all has taken up his time. Media obsession. No extra time compared to any other player. Obviously took more this week with him in hospital.

* Had a go at Caro for suggesting Cuz was lectured about binge drinking. Caro said she said warned. Benny said in his time he hasn't been warned. Caro said it was before Gale's time and the people who warned him were and are still there. Gale said rumour and innuendo has followed Ben. We knew it would happen the moment we took him on. Latest rumour was Cuz had flown the coup. senior journo was chasing the story. Absolute untrue. Late last year when he had his finger surgery there was a week he was off as it all caught up with him. The coaches got him back up and there hasn't been a problem since. Cuz with the younger guys has been great and that is his legacy.

* We want to be the best. No point being here otherwise. We've got to build our commerical strength (various areas but especially membership), manage our finances better, eliminate debt.

* Hardwick is absolute transparent and has integrity (Caro said not very transparent avoiding interviews). Gale said Hardwick will talk when the time is right.

* Believes we'll win on Thursday night. We've got a pretty good midfield when they are up and running and have a few goalkicking options.

Basically told Caro.... and I'm reading between the lines.... who ever your informant has been in the past he is no longer employed by the football club.

Gale Said that no one has given Ben Cousins a Warning about his drinking since Gale has been at the club.

free to add more...

Ooooo I disagree:) In response to the 5/10 year plan/vision, he said one of the best things I have heard from the club since `83.

“We will be Building up muscle and horsepower in the next 5 years."

Now that excited me big time:thumbsu:

Lol at Garys face when GT said the Tiges will win when asked who will win the comp. And Caro already complaining about sexism. When was she when Sam Newman was taking the piss out of Hutchys hair.. Oh and well done Benny! Caro lept to the old "Im not naming my sources" defense even though Benny didnt even suggest that she should..
