Caroline Wilson's fresh information on Zak Butters' BOMBSHELL decision

0:00This is Dave Roberts. If you're heading into summer without a medical emergency kit, you're taking a risk most people don't think about until it's too late. Summer colds linger and can turn into sinus infections at last for weeks. Getting sick right before vacation can derail everything and we are traveling, finding a doctor and pharmacy is stressful. That's why I ordered medical emergency kit. It's like having an emergency care and a pharmacy right at home. It includes essential prescriptions like a moxasillin and generic z-pack to treat a wide range of common and serious illnesses. So if you wake up sick at home or on the road you already have what you need. No waiting for your doctor, no hours at urgent care, no pharmacy lines, no copays, just match your symptoms to the right prescription in your guidebook or call their telemedicine doctor standing by. Start on your med sooner and feel better faster. Every home needs at least one medical emergency kit. 40 years online in minutes and it's shipped to your door and say $45 with promo code blue at urgentcairedkit.com slash blue.

1:01Zack Budders is going to the Western majority. It's the story of the night. I mean, this was the, you know, we woke up to Scott Pendlebury last week. That was a week before, sorry. It's not really a bombshell except that, you know, trade journals and footy experts who I tend to follow and believe with seemed so confident three weeks ago as we're too long. I'm told that Zack was going to choose too long and you know, for most of earlier in the year, we all thought it would be the Bulldogs. The team he grew up with. And then as we wake up today to hear that Zack Budders was actually at the Sedan Hotel, Tom Libratore's Sedan Hotel last night that he called his childhood hero, his boyhood hero who's had the poster, you know, in his bedroom, Marcus Bontan Pelley this morning to tell him he was joining him. And you just look at what the Bulldogs have done over the last week since they lost that final. They've told Tim English he's not going

2:04anywhere because apparently Zack Budders made it clear that he wanted Tim English at this football club. They resigned Arty Jones who sounded dubious when we interviewed him two weeks ago and there and Buku Karmatt's five year deal. It's signed a five year deal. Zack Budders has signed a nine year close to 18 million dollar deal. So the Western Bulldogs significantly up the ante about three or four weeks ago we're told. And for the first time in my memory a massive massive free agent is not going to a preliminary finalist of that particular year. So that's great for football and it's great for the Western Bulldogs and that midfield that already has Bontan Pelley and Ed Richards. But Lee, is he the final piece of the puzzle for you for the Western Bulldogs? No, no, I don't think so because I mean he's a wonderful player. I mean he is really a gun player Zack Budders but you're putting him with Bontan Pelley and Ed

3:06Richards and him that's that's a trio there. Well, Sam is a different type of player but their vulnerabilities always been their big defenders. I mean their bit average. I mean Buku Karmatt's and Donald's sort of getting better but in terms of all Australian standards they haven't got an all Australian sort of taller defender and that's always been their vulnerability. So they it looks like they'll have to improve from within. I don't know whether they'll pick up anyone from but I don't they don't look like they're going to get an all- Australian key defender either. He over they might get in but anyway but it just helps you because you can't be worse off by having a gun player another gun player and Zack Budders is that. Lions are open for Western Bulldogs fans and Jolong fans in the wake of the Zack Budders decision. Nick Theodosi Prestige car open line 1 double 3 693 to our best call it today $100 Harvey Norman gift card. Put your coaches hat back on Lee who's the best cooler in the game. It might be Oshin Mullin maybe go back to coaching the Brisbane Lions and you got Jared Berry at your disposal and the Lions are playing the Bulldogs. Who do

4:08you send him to? Do you send him to the bond? Or do you send him to Ed Richens? Or do you send him to Zack Budders? Well he's going to be a head scratcher for 17 opposition coaches. That's exactly. Yeah well Josh don't we texted that but the point being you know that that there's three really high quality players at the end by the end of the year if you're going to actually have a sort of shut down player would you send him to Bond and Pelley but Richens is for meant you have to make that choice. Well now you're going to choose between three if you're going to go down down that path. No no they obviously helps him be a better team no doubt about that. As I say he's a champion player put him in that category already. Yeah. So we don't know yet whether Port Adelaide will match the offer or how that's all going to happen. We do know that the two clubs have been talking for some time and I imagine Zack Budders has waited until today to make this announcement because now Jolong is out of the final so there's not going to be any distraction but you know G Jolong could have used Zack Budders last night. I mean obviously Chris got said after the game that he would love to see how the

5:12club could have gone in a couple of weeks with Mamie Max Holmes getting back to his best. I'm not sure I think he also mentioned Jeremy Cameron who kicked a couple of goals last night but I think Jeremy Cameron clearly needs a long offseason and some surgery and he said he was I mean he said to 3AW last week all the week before that he's really looking forward to getting his body right and having some serious medical work done but yeah big big blow for Jolong I would imagine. But you would have thought that Jolong is good a team as they are that they I mean obviously Bailey Smith and Max Holmes tend to be I'm midfielders but they're more runners I mean the guy I mean that Tom that comes as the guy in the middle then they might play Mullins guys like that but a Zack Budders for Jolong that would elevate Jolong more than it will elevate the Bulldogs in my view because they really lack a Zack Budders Jolong. Bailey Smith has been extraordinary yes. He's been great but he's a top of player. He is but he is tough though too. No he's been good. Got tougher and he

6:13was pretty good last night too. I mean Jolong really when you look at all the issues they've had this year was a pretty extraordinary performance by what is a great club but given that rivalry and I would almost say bitter dislike at times between the Bulldogs and Jolong emanating largely because of what happened when this is Dave Roberts if you're heading into summer without a medical emergency kit you're taking a risk most people don't think about until it's too late.

By Lee Smith left and you know there was severe disappointment from the Bulldogs the way that all happened and inferences from that club about initially about payments etc etc the that have all been dispelled of course. I think this is one for the Bulldogs today. Very quickly because before we got a number of callers lining up to have a chat particularly about Zack butters as a flow and effect does this impact the decision that Toby Green is about to make. He's been open that he's spoken to Zack butters a couple of times trying to gauge which way he was going to jump. I think Toby Green if he it's largely about lifestyle. Yes he wants a flag. He wants to win a premiership but it's about being closer to family and

8:19Jolong is obviously that you know his family have a holiday house at Erie's inlet. I think he's got a family a growing family planning to grow that family. It's difficult in New South Wales and I think he's a bit despondent about GWS and their hopes going forward but he hasn't made up his mind yet. I'm not sure but I'm pretty sure for him it's lifestyle as much as anything. One double three six nine three we'll take a couple of calls before the break and then another slab of calls straight after the break. Paul good afternoon to you welcome to 3WFooty. Hello you're on the air poll. It is. I'd just like to say I think Botan Pally is a great captain and if I was a footballer of of no I'd like to club I'd go to because of him. How does it sit with Marcus with you Lee that Marcus Bond and Pellies weigh and she's probably going to be nowhere near that of Zach Butter.

9:22No I know it doesn't work out this way but I think your best player should be a high-spider player too and as good as Zach Butter's is he has to find probably another half a leg to get up to when Bonapelli already is. So you know because if Bonapelli's on the low one one point two one point three something like that he's no we need two for a team-maker coming on a big chunk of money ahead of above you. No that doesn't sit well with me that fact. Bonapelli will turn 31 over the off season so what's he about six years five or six years older than the star recruit that's about to walk through the door who had a poster of Marcus Bond and Pellie up on his bedroom wall when he was a kid. Thanks for that Paul Cameron. Welcome to 3 out of a new football. My name is A going. We're well. Yeah passionate ball dogs supporter. Yeah absolutely. Shrewd with the news. Yeah just just can't wait. I think over the last couple of years

10:22the dogs have missed out on a few and it's really been you know you thought was it ever evening and get somebody you know plan like like like others but yeah really really excited. Can't wait for the team up with that. Bonton Richidsson. Yeah keep the ball down to Sam Darcy. Yeah really really excited. Yeah good. Good to come on. Biggest contract in the history of the game. Extraordinary and I know that you know Ken Hinkley has made his mark as a media commentator this year and he's been saying all year that he is going to relish that he's not going to have he's not a Zach Bailey type who might have struggled with going to the Adelaide Crosan being on that huge big money. I think he'll absolutely that's I've heard him say that several times this year. And he it is interesting really I mean we talked about long term well high pay contracts we remember how was the lynching the bid 90s so about 30 years ago he got he got two million for 10 years but he played his 10 years then about a decade ago Franklin went to

11:26went to Sydney and he was on a 10-year contract and he played his 10 years. So but these long term contracts to be honest I think from the club's point of view there was an album to put in the head in the news you keep the player because you know if Zach Bailey for example if where one next year Zach Bailey hurt himself and never plays again he still gets his I don't mean you so it's it is a big thing and the other thing of course the two. Zach Bailey is not getting 18. No sorry Zach bothers I'm getting my Zach's confused. But anyway you get the you get the exterior contract and the other thing is the two very rights are only going to 31 so when you contract you be on 31 you in an uncertain landscape financially expecting the next two very contract ahead north but the beautiful uncertainty of life we let's watch what's happened over the years but he wouldn't be certain until it happens yeah no to take a breath. This is Dave Roberts if you're heading into summer without a medical emergency kit you're taking a risk most people don't think about until it's too late summer coldslinger and can turn into sinus infections at last for weeks
