  Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to No Dribble, the newest.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: I'm going to open with all of that. That's brilliant.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Hello and welcome to No Dribble. Yes, this is the
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: third take on this introduction because clearly I haven't had
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: enough coffee this morning. My name's Carolyn swind Il'm very excited, obviously,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: to be announcing the newest chapter of the Abba Fan Club,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: which starts here in No Dribble HQ. I'm joined by
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: the biggest fan of them all. That's you Coxy. Hello.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Everyone, that's cath Cox and you do need to drink
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: your coffee. It's sitting right there.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: I'm going to everybody into me, and of course a
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: huge welcome to our very dear friend Sue Gordion.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Again, Hello, and Catherine. Don't tell me you don't want
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: a man after midnight.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: To be fair, I don't want him after midnight because
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: I'm fastest if he could come over before seven.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: In his name Fernando.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Does your mother know?
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: Is that another EPISNG?
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Is it? Yeah?
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: My mum doesn't know much these days, and I like
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: to keep it that way. She started listening to Know
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Dribble ashally, and I told her.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: I talked about it. Yeah, that's so good.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: When we started talking about I don't know whatever we
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: started talking about halfway through. We started quite sensibly, and
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: then it took a bit of a turn to generate,
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: said Francie, you don't need to listen this way.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: That it did start quite sensibly, because I think in
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the very first episode we were talking about Liz getting
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: it with what was clearly a massager for Mother's Day,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: but we were calling it a vibrator. So I'm not
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: I'm not entirely sure that you know we've misled anyone
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: as to we can't be discussing here. But she doesn't
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: need to listen any no, no, Well, I told you
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: how my dad thinks he doesn't know that I do
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: a podcast, and when I was doing it when we
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: were in Vancouver, and he said he accidentally listened to one,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: but then later on, as I uncovered it, he accidentally
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: listened to me on ABC Radio one time. So because
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: I was doing overnights at one stage, I was a guess,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know what I was talking about, but you know,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: this is one in the middle of the night, and
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: my father, because he's eighty four, doesn't sleep that well.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: And wakes up and it's like, puts his headphones on
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: so he doesn't disturb his wife, and suddenly I'm there
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: the dulcet tones of his daughter are in his ears,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: so I God.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: That would have frightened them. Isn't it funny with tech though?
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Like my parents are useless, and I feel like I
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: am already so far behind. I just got to Carolyn's before,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: and her son's out there with one of what's what
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: is it.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Called virtual reality, like with.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: The mask and the you know, the hands and they
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: do all the actions and stuff. I was like, what
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: is going on.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Here, Kathy?
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Know how you're all over your TikTok famous videos, the
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: ones that you love go and look are like exactly
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: that people that put on the virtual masks or whatever
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: they're called, and they knock into things in the kitchen
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: and over tables. It is absolutely hysterical and painful.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: You've got to watch so good.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: I just said to Carolyn before I would be so
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: scared that I'd run into stuff, and she said that
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: they put a chair at the entrance to the pool
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: because he could end up in there. Right now, he
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: could easily end up in the pool.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: You need to put Floti's on him. Molly's doing it.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: I'm just more worried about the VR goggles being destroyed
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: if he goes in the pool. It would be quite
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: funny to do. I actually paid both of my children
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: twenty bucks to jump in the pool last week. At
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: one night, we were sitting out there by the pool having
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: a fire, and I said, I'll give you twenty bucks
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: if you get in the pool. You have to swim
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: the whole length of it, because it's just they're so
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: they're so soft that they've just like they can't. They'll
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: have this very narrow temperature band that they're happy to
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: live in. And I just like to see them have
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: a bit of hardship every now and then.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Did they do it or did they try and range
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: up to thirty or fine?
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Now, no, no, they both did it.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: You're sitting there on a Saturday night.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: That's your Saturday night, tempting your kids for twenty bucks
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: to do things jumping fall.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: It's poor parenting, but you know, I think it's character building, right.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I did offer Lewis thirty euros to wear a beret
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: for the day in Paris, but it was not enough
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: money to tempt him to do it.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Do people rock around in berets over there?
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: No, only only to rest. But and I said, Tim,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: you will not see anyone, you know, if you are
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: wearing a beret. And but it's like he just wouldn't
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: do it and look fair enough.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Listen, Lizen, I both rocked a beret when we're in Paris.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: A cheese got sick. All the above.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Dottie and I got berets. But that was just
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: for my Valor Dribbler's Tipping comp Weekly video.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Committed speaking of do we get to start with the
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: big news?
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Well, why don't we?
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah? So it is sadly the end of the Valor
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Dribblers Tipping Comp. But I have just loved this. I
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: think it's been so fun. We do have one clear winner,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: which is very exciting. The Fascinator has come out on top.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: She they actually because it's Lisa and her daughter do
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: it together. They tip together. But they have absolutely peaked
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: at the right time and come on through. There were
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: three people who finished a point below them, so the
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Bassinator finished on fifty three points. That is Lisa bass.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Now I've already told Lisa because obviously they need to
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: get planning because they are planning to come down for
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: the Grand Final, although I think they might be terribly
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: disappointed because they're Swifts fans. But we'll talk about that
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: later on. But Lisa and her daughter Lauren have been
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: tipping every week and they've been to four home games
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: this this year, including the one with Steph Fretwell's foot gate.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: They're mulling over that one. Found the second half of
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the season to be quite tricky to tip, and that's
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: when they came home strong. So in terms of height,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: they're both mid quarters. But yeah, they've said through some
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: great photos where they caught up with Patrick at one
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: of the games. Been listening to No dribble since the
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: very beginning. So we're looking forward to meeting them at
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: our event on the first of August. And in terms
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: of scrunchy gait, they're both more likely to go a
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: hair tie, but they would wear a scrunchy for the team.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: So I feel like, you know, we have some awesome,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: worthy winners here. I look forward to meeting them in
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: a couple of weeks.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: Well done, because that tipping com was bloody hard. I
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: thought it was going to be a lot easier. Oh
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: so on that then, where did wheel and well lunch.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: You know where you I know, I.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: Know, I just want to hear it out loud.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: So that's why you're asking a question.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Well, it's good news for you, Gordy, because we're not
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: even tied anymore. You pipped me by one point in
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: the last week, and we both got bingo this week.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: Everyone you know, bingo was the most popular score of
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: the week this week, so a lot of people got
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: four people got zero points this week, but two hundred
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: and thirty eight of us got all of them correct
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: and then the next highest most frequent score was three points.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: But we have had five hundred and fifty tippers across
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: the whole season. We've had nine people who registered but
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: never put any tipsy, twenty one groups and about twenty
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: five Queenslanders who joined us for the love of tipping,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: not being eligible to win prizes, but our weekly prize
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: winner for the last voucher fifty dollars voucher is says
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: A who was sitting in eighty first position. The other
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: most important announcement, obviously, is the Golden Turkey Award. We've
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: known this for several weeks, but she has stayed consistent
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: through the whole thing. Mellie Melrosa scored a total of
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: eighteen points over the whole season. Just to put it
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: in context, fascinator got fifty three points.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: So crap, that's hard to do.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very hard to do. She started round one
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: with a score of two, and to put that in context,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: I started round one with a score of zero. So
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: she's done very well to lock that in the Golden Turkey.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Kathy finished in fourteenth position on forty nine points. Gordy
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty eighth.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Sorry, so the winner got fifty three.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: The winner got fifty three points.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: It's got forty nine.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Catherine, I know I'm impressive.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Human.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Oh I'm in real shock.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: I don't think I've really kind of listened when you've
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: been the weeks i've been on all I kind of go,
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: is I'm not winning?
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Move on? It's Catherine, who cares? You're only a full
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: shy of the actual winner.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but there's a lot of there's a lot.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Of there's thirteen people ahead of you. There's not a lot,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: but it just goes to show the lengths she'll go
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: to to not buy lunch or a mate.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: More important, which ends up being you.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's me. So I ended up in three
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: hundredth position, and I'm sad I would like to have
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: ented in the twos rather than the three hundred three hundred.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: But I had thirty nine points. Liz finished in four
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: hundred and ninety eighth position on twenty nine points. So
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: if you only tip the home teams, you got twenty
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: nine out of the possible fifty three points, which I
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: think is really interesting because it shows that you know
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: almost half the time it is the away team who
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: is going to win.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: I reckon, that's been better than I'd love to do
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: a stat on day, is it, Darren Milton?
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: That's on our.
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: Darryl Milton, Darryl, Darryl, Can you go and do a
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: stat of how many away team wins there were last year?
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: Because I reckon there wouldn't be as much. I reckon
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: this year has been huge for away team wins.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: I'm curious. I just think teams have to learn how
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: to win.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: A one fever doesn't have to learn to win away.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: How could your run been, though, Like how many games
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: at home? Now you've already had four in a row?
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: Is it we the fourth in the row?
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: No?
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: So we had two in a row, which was round
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: thirteen fourteen, and now we'll go first semi at home.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: Oh god, I thought it was more than that. Okay
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: to end the run and well, don't lose that, because
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, you will get another game at home, which
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: would be great, I know, but you'd prefer to have
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: a week off and just turtle down to Melbourne or relaxed,
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: wouldn't you.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: They won't lose.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Well, Listen, what was really interesting in that Swift's game
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: was firstly the first extra time game of the year.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: What the hell? Why is that taking so long on
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: gobsmack shot? And that we finally get one in round fourteen.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: But it was really interesting in the last huddle they
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: had Helen Howsby like really reven them up. This is
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: good for us. We're going to have to do this
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: in the grund and you know if we're going to
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: play finals. And I thought, I get what you're doing
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: in the moment because you're trying to get your team
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: across the line. But you shouldn't be in this position
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: to the Wooden Spooners when you're about to go and
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: play in the major semi final. So I don't think
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: you will be in the finals preparing that way, you'd
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: hope you'd just you know, but anyway, they were trying
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: to put their positive spin on it. You could see
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: definite frustrations in the team yesterday that I don't think
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: i've seen all year. And it is going to be
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: a very hard road trip.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: Gordy, Yeah, I think I think, shout out to I
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: actually agree with your cat, but shout out to.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: The five birds.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: Go and have a look at their last three games.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: I think we spoke about this last week. They just
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: have to learn how to win in the critical moments.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: That'll be a team depending on what their list looks
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: like next year. If they maintain within reason, they do
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: need some changes, But if they maintained within reason, there'll
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: be a vastly different team next year in terms of
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: critical moments and learning.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: You know who made the mistake in the critical moment though,
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: mister Kitty Wells puts a rookie on time that game
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: like I'm just not smart.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: How devastating for that young woman too, that it's like
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: this is my first game and she's you know, you
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: could see that she was blaming herself. It's not your fault,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: hunt like this is not the time. Yeah, but I
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: mean because early on in the game, when I thought that,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: when they were, you know, sort of blooding some new players,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: I thought, that's great, this really good thing. But it's like,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: you're so close to winning. Don't put it on this
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: kid's shoulders. No, sorry, kid, that sounds patronizing, but don't
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: put it on this young woman's shoulders on her debut.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Why wasn't Steph Fretwell on in the dying moments of
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: their game? Either? What the last quarter of the Lightning game?
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: What happened?
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: What was the score? There? Was it all over?
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: No?
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: They only lost by four. I didn't see the end
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: of the game.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I reckon, Carolyn. The question actually isn't the
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: last I reckon. Why take her off in the second quarter?
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: I mean, I imagine, I imagine Steph Frettwell maybe doesn't
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: have sixty minutes in her at this point in time.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: I don't know, but I just could not comprehend. Lightning
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: looked great against Adelaide for that verse fifteen. Adelaide challenged
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: slightly in the second and the second that that happened,
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Fretwell went off. But I'm like, no, Fretwell's your leader,
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: leave her on.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: I guess weather a storm.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: You know, I just felt like they made that they
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: rolled that dice too early and all be You know,
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: I agree with you that last quarter.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Why but I go back to you shouldn't have put
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: yourself in that predicament.
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: You had a chance to, like I say, weather a storm,
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: find a way and keep your leader on court. So
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: I guess what we all don't know as just general
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: fans from the outside is the circumstances of Fretwell or
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: whether or not that's just the coaching of their current
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: coach in terms of trying to find impact moments, don't
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: I but.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: Gordy, were you expecting a retirement from Frettwell? I mean,
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: it may still come, we don't know. But the postmatch
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: interview was interesting. She was very clear she wants to
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: play again next year.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've got to big care for what I say here, Catherine.
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: I probably was, but I'm not surprised that she's staying on.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: I think I'd love to know where her body is at.
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: And she doesn't have a contract, so she I don't
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: think she's got a contract. I didn't have a look
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: at that, but I don't think she was freely saying
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: it's a done deal. So I guess if we knew
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: behind the scenes around where the body's at all. Actually,
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: what you did hear or say was I understand with
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: the young ones coming through that my role might need
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: to change.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that might be a bad thing.
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: So you know, again, maybe an impact player off the
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: bench and Batcheldor becomes a starter and learns to groove
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: as a starting player, which, as we all know, is
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: a completely different beast than impacting a game at some point.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: So interesting, It's good. I'm glad she's going to be
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: around potentially for another year. Oh.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Likewise, so that game I was really excited about. And
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: I think I mentioned that I was at the comedy
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: store last week and so I had everything recorded that's
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: going to watched on delay. I went dark. I wanted
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: to enjoy the Giants game, and that, I think is
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: something else we need to talk about. And I really was.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: I was interested to watch this and I got home
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: and then there was something wrong with the foxtail. It's like, okay,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: this has been recorded. It's midnight. I poured myself a cognac.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I settle in to watch a few hours of netball,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: and then something happens and like the foxtail, I wouldn't play.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: I could see that the game was there. So I
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: went and poured my cognac back into the bottle and
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: went to bed. And then the next morning I'm watching it.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: I got Pete to do whatever Pete does with unplugging
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: things and making them work. Then and I was watching
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: it and Dot comes out. She'd slept in, came out.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: She had watched it for a few minutes, and then
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: she wanted Lightning to win. She'd tipped the Thunderbirds. She
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: came back in and she said, ah, so do you
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: want to do you want to have a bit of
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: a bet as to what the score is going to
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: be and who's going to win? And then I said,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I said, I think the Thunderbirds are
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: going to win. Lightning were up for it this stage,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: and she said, yeah, I think the Thunderbirds will win
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: and the score is going to be in the field fifties.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: And it's like, you little, you've just been and look
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: and she just wrecked it. So it's like, well, quite
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: clearly that is what the outcome is, and you've just robbed.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: But Oh, I just I just think I'd like to
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: look like I'm a bit of a legend in predicting
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: the score in games. It's like, no, you are so transparent.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: I thought they would win that too, but I thought
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: it would be by a bigger margin, to be fair,
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: like that was a good game from the lightning considering
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: what they had to deal with in the last couple
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: of weeks.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: So how good was Ramelda Aiken?
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: So I had about yeah, the quarter about quarter time,
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: something just like kind of the light bulb went on.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: She's like, no, we're not losing this. She just turned
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: into a beast. She was unreal.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: There was a couple of moments where she got a
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: bit of a wayward ball and she had to run
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: and like I was watching that big bandage, you know,
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: that big leak the leg she.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: Was, oh yeah, the scaffold race on and at.
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: One point she didn't pull up overly well and kind
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: of limped back a bit, but it just didn't stop her.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: She she found another gear for the Thunderbird on the weekend,
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: and I'm not convinced had she not have done that,
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: that maybe the game could have.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Been a little different. They really needed her big time.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: What was going on with Lauren Frew?
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: Oh question pickle juice needs the pickle juice.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but what was what was said to her before
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: that in that huddle.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Said to you up for this or something like that,
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: and it's like, yeah, that's happening there.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: We were all talking about that off camera. Don't know
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: what that was about, whether or not she'd been sick.
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: There's so much sickness in teams, Like you can see
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: the tissues on the bench, and so I don't know
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: whether it was that, but she has had calf problems.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: Historically, so it looked like cramp.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: She was walking okay at the end of the game,
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: but she was very teary, like she wasn't on the bench.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: The camera picked her up. She looked a bit emotional
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: during the game. Yeah, when she had to come off,
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: so she went up.
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: She went up for this rebound and landed and it
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: looked it looked like cramp cat, you know, when the
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: muscle kind of just holds that contraction.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, No, is that after the man after Midnight?
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: That Jane Fonder thing that she put on Instagram a
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: couple of years ago, she said, I don't miss having
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: a man in my life. But I did get home
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: from this awards ceremony last night and I couldn't un
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: zip my dress, so I had to sleep in it.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: That's when I miss having a man round.
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: She's a rip of that lady anyhow, So through so
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: we'll keep eyes on that throughout the week, I think,
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: and keep eyes on Hadley for the swift. There's a
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: couple of players we're not sure about.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: They need through. I'll tell you what she's If you
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: had to pick a goal attack for Australia, I mean
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: we're running low on them. She'd have to be in
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: the squad.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Do you reckon?
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: Well, who else is there? You're Austin, Well, she'd be
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: in the team. Yeah, I mean if you're thinking about
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: it in terms of Helen Howsey English, I don't think
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: more's up to the child.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Was about to say what about Emily Moore?
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: No, and then Sophie Dwyer.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: Well she's probably in the squad anyway, but Beckford can't
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: be selected. Oh she's Jamaican.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I thought, Hang, am getting good getting my
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: players confuse try will try.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: This is like a whole new podcast just chatting about
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: what do the Diamonds do? Actually, what I mean by
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: that is so next year is Common Games the year
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: after being World Cut right for me personally, World Cups
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: the one like total Games has lost.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: It's kind of.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: A little bit and so like how many And I
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: hate using this word, but it has been a bit
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: of an aging diamonds, right, A little bit of an
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: aging diamonds. A few injury concerns around how many changes
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: do the diamonds make now? And potentially blood in Commonwealth
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: Games to ensure that World Cup isn't a dead bit
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: moment or or whatever.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Like it's it's a really interesting one.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: I'd go one step further though, blood them now this year?
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: Oh no, no, and I mean this year?
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: Sorry, I mean now, what do these this series look
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: like this year?
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Like that?
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: If you're going to changes, do it now?
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: Well, phone calls are happening as we speak, guys. Today's
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: the day the players get their phone call, whether.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: They're in the squad, how many in the squad?
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: Gordy, No, it hasn't been confirmed, Kat, I'd love to
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: talk to you in detail about it.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: I actually don't even get it myself. There's some new
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: change in the diamonds CPA.
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: That's kind of my understanding if the Diamonds coach is
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: a little bit restricting to the way in which she
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: has to select her numbers. Now, whereas there's been some
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: flexibility about it in the past, I think has got
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: to do with payman.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Do you know what? I appreciate they've got to be supported,
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: But that's that's ball has censored myself then for the
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: players and their opportunity, I would do that for free
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: for ever in a day, Like, why does it suddenly
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: have to be all about them being supported financially or
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: whatever when players are going to miss an opportunity to
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: be in that environment. I mean, if that's what it's
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: coming down to, which it sounds.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Like I've got to be careful what I say here.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: So well, I think it's an issue of exploitation, right, So, yes,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: these young people who are ambitious will do that for free.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: But they're not going to get selected if they're not deserving.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: You know, you know what I mean? You like, you're
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: not flogging every single person for no reason. These players
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: would only get selected if they were good enough to
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: be selected. And now, if Stacey Marinkovitch's hands are tired
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: and she can't give someone an opportunity that deserves it
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: because of numbers or limits or caps or whatever it is,
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: that's ridiculous.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: They can't sell tickets for money and then say, ask
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: the people who are playing to have a crack for
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: free and see what happens. It happens a lot in
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: the comedy world that it's like, ohh, the promoter gets
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: paid and the audience is none the wiser that the
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: comedians are not getting paid, and it's like it's exploiting
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: someone's ambition and desire to get further along. But I
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: just think as a general principle, there is a requirement
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: to be treating professional athletes as professional athletes at all
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: times and not going unless you want to be unprofessional
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: or see how we go.
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: No, I completely disagree because people are missing an opportunity.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: If I'm on the edge of that and I'm deserving
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: of a spot, and I would do it in a
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: heartbeat to better myself and put my hand up for selection,
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: but I can't be chosen because of some stupid cap.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: That's ridiculous. Yeah, and therefore I miss out. I should
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: be able to make that decision. You won't be supported,
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: that's up to you. Do you want to come or not.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know, that's just a yeah.
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: The key thing here Cat though, is just and again
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: the detail is the most important thing here. I just
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: know that there's been a change in the CPA. I
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: just I would hate to be the Diamond's coach and
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: have any restrictions, right like, at the end of the day,
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: your head's on the chopping block. So I would just
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: want to make sure that as a coach, I'm given
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: as much flexibility to select when I need to. However,
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: I need to to ensure that I can be successful,
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: and whatever pieces of the puzzle and mechanisms that need
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: to be put in place, whether it's amper in the
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: CPA or whether it's the budget that supports the Diamonds program,
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: that's the key to it. I think it just we've
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: got to find the balance here.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: So good chat, good chat, rat chat. So I'm thinking
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: about the fans who are happy this week. So Fever
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: fans are happy.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: VA fans are doing it. I saw them doing a
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: conger line.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: I reckon the t Birds fans are happy. I think
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: the Giants fans are happy, and the Firebirds fans are
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: probably happy. I think the unhappy fans are the fans
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: of the Swifts, the MAVs, the Vixen's and the other team,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: the Lightning. Obviously, Lightning fans are very unhappy.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: Vixen's fans will still be happy because they're still in finals,
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: and I think they were decent in that game.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: I think they were decent in that game.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I reckon they will definitely still be happy, but
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: I feel like this, I mean, the Swifts are going
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: into a major final. The fans should be happy, but
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: I think given on form, you're right.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: I feel for the Vixens fans because the Vixen's were
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: heard and they finished fourth, and they've been they've been
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: assured of a finals position for longer, so it's like
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: they have a right to think, well, I wish we
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: were heard and having a home final, And I really
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: feel for the Vixens having to go back to the
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: scene of the crime of last year's Grand Final, like
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: I'm in a different arena, but it's like they've got
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: to go back into Thunderbird's territory and fight for their lives.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: And they haven't won the last five games against the
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: Tea Birds, Like, at what point does that become a
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: mental battle more than anything?
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Else, what's happened?
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: Hello? Hello, hello? Hello?
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: He he that if she was being quiet or for
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: we'd lost her? No idea what just happened?
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: I'm not hearing anything. Goddamn shit?
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: Are you back, Gordy mother?
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: Hello? Hello?
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Goddamn ship?
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: Hello hello?
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: Can you hear us to piss?
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello Hello?
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: We've lost Sue?
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: Yes, so that will be a big ass to go
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: back to Adelaide and get that job done. Considering the
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: last five Wow, yeah, start to add up, start to
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: play with your head.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Who do you reckon? Will be the grand finalist?
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: My grand final is the Thunderbirds and the Fever.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: What it's looking like for me to jes Swifts?
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: Come on, well, let's get to the Giants game. Then
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: the first game of the round. How good and like
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: Joe Harton to go out, but to play as well
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: as she did and then finished with this just the
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: best mess. She's rock solid though not a tear. We
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: kept we kept looking at her and waiting for some
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: emotion to creep in. Nothing, not even at the end
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: when she was having a chat and she was holding
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: a newborn baby, baby Eddie. Nothing. Oh my god, I'm
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: over here balling I'm completely out of that.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: I was crying through the whole thing. Yeah, I just
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: thought it was great. I wanted to talk to you.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: So you were in your final game, the last few
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: minutes for you, you knew you were going to win it,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: didn't you, Because I remember, like Liz's last game, it's
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: like it wasn't until the it wasn't until the siren. Yeah,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: that you knew you'd won it, and so there was
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: no time for that emotion to get in. I was
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: thinking about that with the Giants game because it was
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: so tight for a long time, and I thought, I
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: hope they get a little bit of time, you know,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: I hope they get ahead and give her some time.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: And so she did have that last few minutes where
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: it's like, look, you're clearly going to win this game now,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: and that chance to have that kind of look around,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: soakity in whatever.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but no emotion, which was fascinating. And then I
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: saw her in the hallway underneath Ken Rose all or
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: in there after the game. I was like, how are
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: you feeling. She goes, I'm just relieved that was it
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: got through. They got the win and move on. But
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: I went back to the Giants headquarters because it's across
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: the road from the stadium, and they apparently go back
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: after most games. I've not done it before. And then
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: the AFL Boys if they've just played as well, they
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: go back there. And so both had played, both had won,
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: so the place was packed and it was just so
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: nice to be able to stop and talk to everybody
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: and catch up. And they all got their Joe Harton
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: Faces T shirts on, and the party bus came to
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: pick them up from the headquarters and off they went.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: In my last game, Teagan Philip. She was when she
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: finished and she had the last shot of the game
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: in mind, and afterwards everyone was getting into her about
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: not passing the ball to me, and I was like,
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: oh god, I was oblivious. I don't care as long
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: as she goes in and we all get a moment
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: to celebrate. So it was funny, but that's all I
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: was thinking at the end of the game as well,
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: like get.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: It to Joe Joe. And she did say she'd had
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: a wonderful week, which is really nice. And you know,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: people express emotion differently, don't they, Like I had tears,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: but I thought I thought she was clearly emotional, but
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: that she just expresses her emotions differently.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: She was clenching a butchet exactly exactly.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: What we were talking about, Braver, she's using the technique.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: But can we talk about Giants HQ. So there's all
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: this talk about that the Giants might not be the
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Giants next year, and that the AFL club might spin
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: them off again and Mountees. What do we know that
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: we can share?
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: Oh, look, we know bits, but we probably can't share.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: I think the important wording in it is that there's
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: a transfer of the license that potentially happens, so it
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: may still remain the Giants. The Giants AFL doesn't own them,
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: that body South Wales still does, so that could shift.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: I think feel like though, if somebody else was going
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: to pick it up, you'd probably want to change the name.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: But this is the whole discussion.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: It's just got my scarf.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: No.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: Well, this is my point though, because it's the same
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: thing with the mav Though. If that does happen, all
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: the players that played for them, that history is lost.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like you're.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: Kim Green's, you're Joe Harten's, you're Susan Pettitt's. All of
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: that history is lost. Someday people will stop talking about
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: the Giants because they've forgotten about them. Yeah, and I
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: was so sad.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Rugby League has shown us and the AFL has shown us.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: So the Sydney Swans were the whatever blah blah South
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: South Melbourne? Yeah, yeah, was it South Melbourne that they were?
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: And they've still got a lot of people who are
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: connected with them because of that, because they've kept the
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: colors and they've kept a lot of that same identity,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: and there are people from Melbourne who are fans of
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: the Sydney Swans because of that history and that connection.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: And it's like we can actually have a different management
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: structure and governance processes and still maintain those traditions and
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: that history and keep those fans Like someone who recently
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: got their giant scarf.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well it could be worth more.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: It might be a collectors it could be a collect design.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: So yes, we'll keep across that one and bring it
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: to you as we find out and if it does happen.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: This is not netball related, but it did. It actually
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: cut across a little bit of my netball watching on
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: the weekend. I had to watch more on delay. I've
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: got a little thing that started in lockdown that is
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: a lot of fun. So there were a bunch of
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: a friend of mine set up this cooking club and
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: we would get together on a Sunday afternoon and we
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: would all cook the same recipe and we'd all have
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: gin and tonic or variations on a theme this on
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: zoom and cook dinner. And so we did it again
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: last night, and I chose the recipe this time, which
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: I've never done before and I won't be ever chosen
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: to do it again, I don't think. And it was
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: a Lambshank recipe. And then we're all meant to put
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: it on the table at our respective houses and share
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: the photos of it or whatever. And it was really
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: fun because one of the women who was originally in
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: at her daughter was doing HSC at the time during lockdown,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: and sometimes Lucy would come on and you know, do
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: the chopping for her mum and whatever, and a mum
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: would have the gin and tonic. Anyway, this time, Lucy's
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: living independently in Canberra and a mum was driving down
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: to see her and Katie said, I can't be in.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: It's like, well, Lucy needs to make you dinner. So
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: Lucy joined us. Now as an adult showed us around
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: her sharehouse. But my dinner on the table at a
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: quarter to ten last night. So yeah, the Lambshanks were
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: not free. Don't know. It was meant to be a
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: two and a half hour recipe, a two and a
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: half hour cooking after the thing went in, but you know,
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: just hours of the lambs must be the size of
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: t rex this dam because they were so huge. But
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: it just took forever.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: Take me back to Lockdown though, because all the recipes,
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: did they end up even though it was the same recipe,
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: did they end up vastly different depending on how much
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: people are drunk?
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, some people could play up something that
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: looks pretty fancy. Mine's always a bit slapdash. But it
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: was one of the things that came out of COVID
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: and Lockdown that it's like, this is nice. I quite
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: like to hang onto this because it's so hard for
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: us all to get together. But it's like, well, if
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: we do this on a Sunday afternoon at four o'clock,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: we're on this zoom thing for an hour and a
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: half together and then we're all in our homes, We're
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: not you know, it just was it an easier way to
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: catch up, and it was so fun.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: I love this though, because I can imagine the camera
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: pans to Carol and and she's given up. She's got
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: the gin and bag of chips to sit there at
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: the corner of the kitchen.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: Well, one of my friends, Laura, who was involved, she
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: actually had forgotten about it and she put a cake
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: in the oven so she couldn't cook. She just had to.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: She just sat there with her gin and tonic talk.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: We love it, said, it's actually boring when you're not cooking.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: It's like I will piss off.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: Then, oh that's so good.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: On one st, we call ourselves the Fermented and Demented
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: Cooking Club.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: I feel like I could qualify for that.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you could too. Actually thought about you,
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: but I thought, oh, she so, Catherine. Something we haven't
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: done in a little while, and in part our fault,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: in part because we haven't had the nominations, is win
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: beneath our wings.
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: Get out.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: I have one this week?
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: How good?
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: How did you know that?
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: And you know I've also got one too, so but
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: I think that because this is the week where we've
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: done the big announcement of the Valor Dribblers, tipping comp winner.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: We will get back into our win beneath the Wings
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: next week. But of course, all right, yeah, of course,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: don't forget dribblers that we do need nominations for win
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: beneath our Wings, and we are deep in the community
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: netball season, so obviously there are lots of people on
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: your mind who have done a wonderful job at keeping
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: our game alive at the community level. If you get
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: on the web page no dribble dot com dot Au,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: there's a little record thing there. You can send us
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: a voice message if you want to do it that way.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: We're like that because then we can play it. Or
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: you can email us at info at no dribble dot
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: com dot Au. Or you can get on the Instagram
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: page which is no Underscorre Dribble Underscore podcast.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: It's a bit problematically, I've seen.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: To be problematic. Try that one. Or you can DMUs
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: through the Facebook page. You can slide into my DMS
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: and send me a message there. We've still got some
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: scrunches from last year. We did such a good job.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: These are the real collector's items. They are rustic and.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: Hand by integrated by now no, that's still there. We've
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: lost gaudy momentarily that I don't know what's happening in
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: the wild West, but something's going on.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: As the world ended outside our studio and we don't know,
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: but the internet has gone offline. I wanted to ask
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: her something and this is something I will I will
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: have put up on the Facebook by the time this
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: episode goes to it, because we're running out of time.
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: Triple J has their Hottest one hundred every year, but
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: now there is a thing on the ABC the Hottest
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: one hundred Australian songs of all time, and you pick
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: your top ten and it's such an interesting exercise and
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: I want all the Dribblers to do it. One because
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: I want us to influence what the hottest one hundred
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Australian songs are with the netball community, because I think
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: we've got good taste. But two, I want everyone to
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: do their top ten and then share it in the
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Facebook group and then I or possibly Darryl Milton will
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: do some stats on it and will work out what
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: is the No Dribble hottest one hundred Australian songs.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: We're only doing ten, though, aren't we do we pick ten?
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: You only have to pick ten which is very hard
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: because for me, some of the songs that were my
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: favorite and most meaningful songs to me that I think
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: are absolute bangers, I don't think they that necessarily the
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: national classic like I put Ksan and Thunderstruck there, not
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: because they're necessarily the songs that are my favorite. I
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: think they're both fantastic songs, but because I think, well,
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: they are kind of transformative Australian songs. So I feel
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: like I had to vote for them, even though and
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: some of the other ones that I voted for niche
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: sorry Where's Land down Under? That I didn't have it
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: in my top ten. I didn't have any in excess
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: my top ten, Like it's been hard in your top ten?
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Have Midnight Oil, No No, I had Paul Kelly. I
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: had Crowded House, which I think is a little bit
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: contentious because it's Kiwi's, but well, Paul hest is not
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: not a Kiwi. I didn't have any Hunters and Collectors.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Like ten is hard because you've only got room for
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: so much, So get around because I think they're voting
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: closes on Wednesday or Thursday, so I'm going to put
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: this on the Facebook group. I was really keen to
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: hear Gordy's thoughts on this, because I know she loves
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: a bit.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: Oh she's some choose in the Yeah for sure.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: But I think we're going to have to just sign
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: off without like we need to go send out a
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: search party, maybe Western Australia, go and find Sue Gordian forrest,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: let us know that she is still alive.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: You know what I'll do, I'll commit. I'm going to
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: fly over there this week and I'm going to find her.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: You're a giver. Well, actually, when Liz went missing, we
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: didn't go and find her, but we've learnt from that
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: and now you need to go to Western Australia. So
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: you are calling the game on Sunday.
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: Yes, and I get to do it with Gordi my
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: first one.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: How fun year?
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: Oh, very excited.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: I have such fomo.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: I'm so I wish I was there.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: That's going to be great. I'm pumped.
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: So yes, s Gordie, I'm coming for you.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm sure God is fine. We will make sure
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: that we can report on her whereabouts. So it's just
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: an Internet connectivity thing, but we've lost it. But dribblers,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: thanks for joining us again for another well it's been
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: tumultuous from a technological perspective here, but a great chat.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: And yes, congrats to Lisa Bass winner at the Valor
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: Dribbler's Tipping comp and big thanks to Valor for supporting

• 36:30
  Speaker 1: is not in the finals, get behind another team. It's
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: going to be three interesting weeks, I think, and I
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: hope that we see some some upsets.
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: So your tips of the weekend. Just before we go
• 36:41
