That's bull spend, and marketers are calling it out in...
Dashboard Confessions. My boss asks for results, so I open my Dashboard for the only positive sounding metric I had. Impressions. Cut the bull spend. See revenue, not just reach. LinkedIn delivers the highest return on ad spend of major ad networks.

Hey babes, it's Paris Hilton. So I was checking my points balance in the Hilton honors app the other day. And yeah, I've got about a billion, which feels excessive, even for me. Just kidding. You can never have too many Hilton honors points. And I want to do something iconic this summer. So I'm giving away all my Paris points. Just find somewhere you've always wanted to stay, then go to my socials or Hilton's and tell me about it. Just make sure you're a Hilton honors member, and I might be sending you Paris points. Because when you want points that make your summer even hotter, it matters where you stay.

**Mark Duffield** (1:03)
Yeah, it's time for Take Five this week, and we're talking about midfielders on Monday. And I'm going to be unapologetic today.

**Paris Hilton** (1:13)
Okay.

**Mark Duffield** (1:13)
No apologies. We've got five, and it's five to go. And I think they're pretty good ones, too. All right. So I had a choice of three mids out of the Fremantle West Coast game, and those three were Caleb Sarong, Matt Johnson, and Murphy Reid. And I've gone with Caleb Sarong. I just thought more score involvements, good clearance numbers, and he's kind of like been sneaky good, I reckon, this year after being obviously an acknowledged star. So 25 disposals, five tackles, seven clearances, 409 meters gained, 11 score involvements, four inside fifties.
Nick Dacos, plowing towards an inevitable brown low medal, I think, one goal, one, 39 disposals, four marks, 610 meters gained, four inside fifties, 10 score involvements, 18 contested possessions, which is not something you always associate with Nick.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:10)
Number three?

**Mark Duffield** (2:11)
Nasaya, the Messiah.
Clarko thought he was untaggable, but he tagged him with one of his better players anyway, and it didn't work. Four goals won, 46 disposals, five marks, three tackles, five clearances. 1060 meters gained, and eight inside fifties, and 10 score involvements, and four Premiership points to Nasaya, the Messiah. Errol Goulden in the Sydney versus GWS game, 41 disposals, three tackles, seven clearances, 1047 meters gained, eight inside fifties, seven score involvements, and a big say in the outcome of that game, which was a comfortable winner course for the Sydney Swans. And last but not least, Ed Richards, the Bonds offsider, two goals, 26 disposals, four marks, six clearances, 693 meters gained, a goal assist, 11 score involvements and 11 inside fifties.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:09)
It's remarkable that we had two players join the 1000 meter gained club this weekend.

**Mark Duffield** (3:14)
In the one, yeah.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:16)
Yeah, meters gained, but we're still chasing Aaron Hall's record of 1172 meters in a game.

**Mark Duffield** (3:20)
So I thought Errol Gordon was going to get there, and then he stalled late. It must have been the bleach blonde hair, I think, that just did him in.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:27)
Got him in the end.
One from Robert here saying, the Eagles play dumb football. Freyja have been playing a rope-a-dope game on all the teams, to get them to come out with all guns blazing, so they completely spent by halftime, then run over the top of them. When I saw the Eagles going hell for later in the first quarter to lead by one point, I knew we would pummel them. I'm guessing he's saying free-mantle as we. The Dockers coach has been very coy about this plan, and I'm surprised that no one has figured it out. Who cares if you lose the first quarter if you win the game? I don't think the Eagles coaching came up with a sustainable four-quarter plan because of the crazy notion of giving it all in your first quarter. I never coached like that, says Robert.

**Mark Duffield** (3:59)
I don't think that's the plan, Robert. But I think what does happen is that free-mantle are good when the opposition team is fired up and up and about early. They're very good at making sure the damage on the scoreboard isn't too significant. And then if the other team does spend more pennies in the first half, then they have more left and they come over the top of them. I think one of the standout characteristics of this free-mantle team is that they can put five on your nose in about five minutes. And that is what is spinning games very quickly. And that's a credit to their potency and their scoring power.
