Brett Finch on Matty Johns podcast

did anyone see this last night?

Clearly Brett was off his face on drugs, he had no control of his body at all, was shaking like a leaf and he kept picking up the big league every 5 seconds and not reading it. It was really sad to watch. I know he’s battled depression in the past but I thought his life was back on track but after seeing him last night I think his days in the media could be numbered. He needs help badly

  • Dude!! I was thinking the same thing.. he could t stop waving his arms around.. he looked a bit irratic. I thought he kept flicking through the mag because he wanted to point out an article and talk about.?? He was either on the goey or too many meds 

    • Wow I wondered if anyone was going to mention this. I had to change channels and stop watching as I also found it too difficult to watch. I felt sorry for him

  • I watched it for about five minutes and found it too hard to watch the way he was carrying on and bouncing around in his chair. Guess that would explain it.

    • I found it hard to watch. He would grab the water bottle, put it down, pick it up, take a sip, but it down, not normal behaviour. 

  • I didn't conclude he was definitely on drugs,  but certainly queried it. I think he is uncomfortable articulating his opinions. He has always had trouble staying on track with topic and struggles to verbalise what's in his mind,  such that the viewer can follow it coherently.

    Also,  it's a pod cast. Matty is wearing track suit pants and thongs. I think it is supposed to look relaxed and unorthodox, which might be why Finchy felt comfortable acting like play dough man.  

  •  If you had to go by that footage Finch needs help

    • Perhaps like a few other people hey, Fong?

  • Speed I was thinking! Yeah not a good look!! 

  • That's just normal Finchy. He just has less stuff to fidget with on other shows. Past players have always labelled him as hyperactive.

    There was a lot of flailing arm movement though!?
