"There was a moment...in the second half where Buddy Franklin hand-bal...
"If I had to pick one person, I'd dare say my wife Annabel. I think the people that you spend the most time with, that you're closest with...they get the best and the worst of you. "I'd like to think I treat people as I'd like to be treated and therefore haven't put too many noses out of joint."
