News Tom Boyd - Open Mike - Tuesday 17th September 8:30pm

[Oliver G]

Just a heads up that Tom Boyd will be on Open Mike next Tuesday (17th) at 8:30 pm on Fox Footy. Have been looking forward to this one for a while and I am sure every other Dogs fan is too.

If you can't watch on Fox Footy or Kayo hopefully it will be uploaded to YouTube.

 

[Chillzy]

Biggest question to ask is if Stringer really left a shit in his locker?

 

[ossie_21]

I'm in the process of moving, so really hope it's uploaded on youtube. Are they usually?

 

[AFDogs]

An interesting Open Mike, it will be. Be good to hear Tom's side of things, but mainly interested in the stuff about the Bulldogs culture in all honesty.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

I wonder if any questions are off limits. Mike's usually pretty hard hitting.

Most of them are, but I'm still looking for the episode with Clay Smith

They haven't been this year. In fact Fox have seemed to have put a stop on any of their AFL programs being uploaded onto YouTube.
There may be a 5 or so minutes highlight bit here and there.

For those without Foxtel, each episode is released as a podcast and can be found through most podcasting apps.

It's on Kayo.

 

[Braybrook Son]

Wow. The great man, very surprised he agreed to it. But will be very interested to see what is asked and what is said. Love Tommy

I'd have thought he would wait a few years before opening up on TV too.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

I’d better find out something new or else

 

[fred cook]

Will the question be asked. So Tom if things worked out and your head and body was in the right place could you see yourself one day making a comeback to AFL football ?

Might want some more money

Spread awareness for headspace and his work with metal illness. More relevant after the death of Frawely too.

 

[Scott Tracy]

I really enjoyed the interview. Found out a lot of new things about him and he really opens up in some of it. Highly recommended for the people who didn't watch it.

I’m assuming he didn’t go into any ‘juicy’ details regarding the rumoured bullying by a certain few players?

He Talked about the Zaine Cordy punch up. He said there was no jealousy between the players.

 

[Pugz89]

No, no mention at all. But he confirmed he left every cent on the table when he left. Took half his 2019 pay that he'd already earn and nothing else.

 

[Virgin Dog]

Brilliant interview, I urge everyone to go and give it a watch (Kayo has the replay). I knew Tom was a smart guy but I wasn't expecting him to be so articulate and honest. Really spoke highly of the club without it coming across as ungenuine, and it's really a relief to hear his reasons for quitting. Really wish this was a series because I'd love to hear more from him

yeh pretty sure Dane Swan was meant to go on via his podcast remember him saying it would be out next week but got Tom Boyd instead which is fine

 

[footyfan000001]

Spoke highly of the club. Can’t imagine what he was going through. Wish him a wonderful future, he deserves it.

 

[Dry Rot]

Spoke highly of the club. Can’t imagine what he was going through. Wish him a wonderful future, he deserves it.

Lots of ways to rate an AFL club beyond the number of flags. One obvious way is how they treat their troops. Great to see that he thinks that of us.

Not changing the subject, but I was at the SCG for the Swans last game this year. Really classy send off of their retirees.

At the end of the day, clubs are the sum of their people. Unlike the AFL, which is really the zombies from The Walking Dead.
