Daw jokes after spray

WHATEVER Kangaroos ruckman Majak Daw was hearing on the phone, it wasn’t the sound of silence.

Daw referred to the Simon and Garfunkel classic as he laughed off the almighty spray coach Brad Scott gave him during the Roos’ loss to Essendon on Saturday.

The incident was shown on the TV coverage, with the ruckman summoned to the interchange bench and putting on the headphones.

“I just looked out on the ground and you know that song? ‘Hello darkness, my old friend’,” Daw said in a video posted on the club website.

Teammate Jarrad Waite joked that it was clearly an alltime great bake.

Daw said he and Scott had laughed about the much-publicised incident.

“It was a fair spray but I can understand where Brad’s coming from,” Daw said.

“He wants the best out of me and I think someone like me, I’ve got a pretty thick skin.”
