Well, it is quarter past 8 on a Sunday evening. Cooper, as you just put a prawn in your mouth.

Chilly prawn.
Matty Johns· Host0:07
Um, you have ... You've been at Brookie Oval all day.
Cooper Johns· Host0:10
Yeah.
Matty Johns· Host0:11
Uh, for 2GB.
Cooper Johns· Host0:12
For work, man.
Matty Johns· Host0:13
How's, how was your day, man?
Cooper Johns· Host0:15
Uh, it was good. It was a long day. It was, um, it was good to be there for Manly's first home win of the season.
Matty Johns· Host0:22
That's right.
Cooper Johns· Host0:22

[laughs] And so it was good to get some of the old teammates. Uh- Yeah ... get them a little bit of post-match interviewing, which was good. Bit of fun. Bit of a lift for me, 'cause I was hung, as a horse.

Matty Johns· Host0:55
Yeah.
Cooper Johns· Host0:56
And, um, he's just ... They just love him there, man. Like, just ... It's Foz- it's literally Foz fever at Brookie Oval at the moment.
Matty Johns· Host1:04
Easy bloke to respect and like. Um, just purely from a, from a personal point of view, terrific guy. Um, from a player, from a player point of view, if you're a fan, mate, you love him, 'cause you know that every time he pulled on your jersey, particularly for a Manly fan, he just gave everything he ... He gave away, he gave his personal health away- Yeah ... for the want of winning for that football club.
Cooper Johns· Host1:26
That's true.
Matty Johns· Host1:27
So very easy guy to admire.
Cooper Johns· Host1:28
Yeah. I just- I spoke to him
