FINALLY  got around to watching the interview lol. It was good. Lots about early in his career when he was playing at noble park and didn't think he had it in him to play Afl but Dennis pagen constantly bugged him to come and play so he just went to play one game to shut him up, the rest is history.
Fnny story about how David King used to wind up players telling them Arch was gunnu kill em and scare the crap out of em, he said Carey was the best player he's ever seen and there was nothin better than watching him most of the time what Carey would do at the other end of the ground would completely deflate his player and make his job alot easier.
 

Alot of stories about when getting into trouble as a kid. Talked about his shinboner of the century award and if he thought that Carey would have got the award if not for all the crap that happened, Basically when they voted on the shinboner award there was a shinboner for each decade in which only the players from that decade would vote, and Carey won that. But for the shinboner of the century every player past and present votes and thats the one Archer won, basically said he thought that the blokes from the past 50's 60's and those types probably would have looked upon Careys actions alot worse than modern day players.

He talked about when they won the premierships one of the things he looked forward to most was the reunions later in life, and now they do have them but there's a bad feeling in the room and no one really likes it. He said him and Carey are not friends anymore (nothing new there).

Now he runs his managment company with 160+ afl players on the books, and also runs a International sports tours company with leigh colbert where they take rich people around the world to big sporting events (sweet job).

There wasn't much talk about his family and his daughter.

thats pretty much the jist of it anyway
