Craig Wiggins catches up with The Country Early Edition's Dom George to update us on what's going on in his busy world.

Wiggy has learnt a lot on poultry production recently from 2 Sisters Food Group Executive Director Philip Wilkinson.

He also has a lot to say about Noel Erickson's appalling treatment of bobby calves and subsequent lenient home detention sentencing.

Wiggy also pays tribute to helicopter pilot and good mate John Oakes who passed away recently.
