Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: You're listening to a DM podcast.
- 0:03Speaker 2: We'll try to keep it as nice as we can,
- 0:05Speaker 2: but you might hear the occasional swear word in No
- 0:07Speaker 2: Dribble Don't tell Mom. Hello and welcome to No Dribble,
- 0:23Speaker 2: the podcast where we talk about netball and we talk
- 0:25Speaker 2: about so much more. I'm Caroline Swindell, hot off the
- 0:28Speaker 2: back of a great long weekend. I'm in Sydney and
- 0:32Speaker 2: I'm joined remotely this week. I'm here by myself, but
- 0:35Speaker 2: I'm joined as always by two legends of the game
- 0:39Speaker 2: in different parts of the country. I'm joined by Liz.
- 0:42Speaker 3: Elis as always.
- 0:43Speaker 1: Well, I'm out of my caravan and I'm back in
- 0:45Speaker 1: northern New South Wales.
- 0:47Speaker 2: We're happy to see your back under af a roof
- 0:49Speaker 2: without wheels. That's nice, and also joined by Yeah, it's
- 0:55Speaker 2: not that Kat's microphone isn't working. It's that Kat can't
- 0:58Speaker 2: deal with daylight saving so we set this time because
- 1:02Speaker 2: she was going to be in Queensland. So she's on
- 1:05Speaker 2: holidays with her family, which were very supportive of and
- 1:08Speaker 2: she's just worked out that the time is different in
- 1:11Speaker 2: Queensland than it is in New South Wales.
- 1:13Speaker 3: Now yes, which is funny.
- 1:15Speaker 1: Because she goes to Queensland conservatively seven times a year,
- 1:20Speaker 1: five of those would be during the Daylight Saving peer
- 1:22Speaker 1: because her parents live on the Gold Coast, right, so
- 1:25Speaker 1: this is not an unusual thing for Catherine. And every
- 1:29Speaker 1: time I knew today as I was scraping to get
- 1:32Speaker 1: here on time because I'm still trying to deal with
- 1:34Speaker 1: my nasty rash that we talked about a few episodes ago,
- 1:37Speaker 1: but I thought, as I was driving home, I thought,
- 1:39Speaker 1: I wonder if Catherine realizes that it's Daylight Savings here
- 1:43Speaker 1: and not in Queensland. And sure enough, as we logged in,
- 1:46Speaker 1: the message we got from Catherine was oh crap, oh.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Crap, because you put a message upside, I'll be there
- 1:53Speaker 2: in two minutes and then that's like dot dot dot
- 1:57Speaker 2: Oh crap.
- 1:58Speaker 1: So yes, And the irony of this, of course, is
- 2:00Speaker 1: that Catherine is habitually early, and it causes all sorts
- 2:04Speaker 1: of issues with our friend group, because when we organize
- 2:08Speaker 1: to go to a restaurant, if we say seven pm,
- 2:11Speaker 1: the first thing Catherine says is no, that's way too late,
- 2:14Speaker 1: So we always go resting home hours a six pm,
- 2:18Speaker 1: which means that everybody is late, right, So anyway, but
- 2:21Speaker 1: I always think, Okay, Catherine's always on time.
- 2:23Speaker 3: I've got to get there on time.
- 2:24Speaker 1: Unfortunately, when you are going to get there on time
- 2:29Speaker 1: with Catherine time, you're fifteen minutes late because she's always
- 2:32Speaker 1: there fifteen minutes early.
- 2:34Speaker 3: And she sends a message and says, I'm here, I've
- 2:37Speaker 3: ordered a drink.
- 2:38Speaker 1: And you get there and she's not only ordered her drink,
- 2:40Speaker 1: she's finished her drink, and she's finished the olives or
- 2:42Speaker 1: the brusquette that she ordered was she was waiting, right,
- 2:44Speaker 1: So you always feel like you're late. So I'm always
- 2:47Speaker 1: hyper ventilating a bit just to get there on time.
- 2:50Speaker 1: And now I have got one moment where I can
- 2:52Speaker 1: just hang this over her head for everyone everyone ever. Yeah, look,
- 2:55Speaker 1: you might be early at the restaurant, but you are
- 2:58Speaker 1: forty minutes late for the podcast.
- 3:00Speaker 2: And we started without you.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Well exactly, I feel like I'm just paying it forward.
- 3:07Speaker 1: She starts without us all the time because none of
- 3:09Speaker 1: us are ever as early as her.
- 3:10Speaker 2: It's difficult for everyone. Daylight saving, I love it. I
- 3:13Speaker 2: love daylight saving, but it is a massive It just
- 3:17Speaker 2: takes your mind and your body a little bit to adjust.
- 3:20Speaker 2: I adjusted my clock radio in my car on within
- 3:24Speaker 2: twelve hours of daylight saving started, and I just want
- 3:28Speaker 2: to get some type of gold star for that.
- 3:30Speaker 3: Yeah, you should.
- 3:31Speaker 1: I adjusted the clocks in my house for daylight saving
- 3:33Speaker 1: on Sunday morning, so I maybe should get a silver
- 3:35Speaker 1: star because I didn't adjust the clock in my car
- 3:39Speaker 1: until Monday morning, so you know, that's forty eight hours.
- 3:43Speaker 1: But still that's okay. I think it's sort of a
- 3:46Speaker 1: little challenge for yourself to do it. I mean, I
- 3:48Speaker 1: know that the people in queenslanda and Western Australia are
- 3:51Speaker 1: listening to us and thinking to themselves, what is this
- 3:54Speaker 1: daylight savings time.
- 3:55Speaker 3: You think you talk of?
- 3:56Speaker 1: And happily your curtains are not fading and your cows
- 4:00Speaker 1: are not going sourn their milk because you guys haven't
- 4:02Speaker 1: changed the clocks whereas we have.
- 4:04Speaker 2: Yeah, but every time it happens, you have to relearn
- 4:07Speaker 2: the technology of how to reprogram something, don't you. I
- 4:11Speaker 2: was in the kitchen yesterday this yesterday man Monday, and
- 4:15Speaker 2: I was I thought, I'll reprogram the microwave time now,
- 4:18Speaker 2: and we had the back doors wide opened. It was
- 4:20Speaker 2: a gorgeous day and my daughter was still outside and
- 4:23Speaker 2: Peter just said, I'm just going to go and have
- 4:25Speaker 2: a bit of a snooze. So he'd gone into the
- 4:26Speaker 2: bedroom only a couple of minutes before. Then DoD starts
- 4:29Speaker 2: screaming there's a turkey in the house, and a bush
- 4:35Speaker 2: turkey had warned it in. So I turned around to
- 4:38Speaker 2: look in the lounge room, which would be by the
- 4:40Speaker 2: back sliding doors. No turkey there, and I said, no,
- 4:42Speaker 2: there's not. She said, it's gone into the bedroom. So, yeah,
- 4:45Speaker 2: gone into our bedroom. This giant bush turkey gone into
- 4:50Speaker 2: the bedroom. Pete's trying to have a snooze in there,
- 4:52Speaker 2: and this turkey's in there, flying at the window trying
- 4:55Speaker 2: to get out. You know what birds are like when
- 4:56Speaker 2: they're panicked. It's awful, like, it's just a horrible thing.
- 4:59Speaker 2: So I a broom and I was going to sort
- 5:02Speaker 2: of try to show it out that way. He's throwing
- 5:04Speaker 2: pillows at this damn thing to try to get it
- 5:06Speaker 2: to go out.
- 5:07Speaker 3: That you got to make it come.
- 5:08Speaker 2: Yeah, it right down, but it's it walked out and
- 5:13Speaker 2: it started to walk towards the door. So I just
- 5:15Speaker 2: followed it with the broom. But as soon as it
- 5:17Speaker 2: got outside the door, I started whacking the broom on
- 5:19Speaker 2: the ground, screaming, because you know these are protected you know,
- 5:21Speaker 2: bush turkeys. If they decide to make a nest in
- 5:24Speaker 2: your yard, you can't do anything about it, like they're
- 5:27Speaker 2: protected species. So I certainly in New South Wales, I
- 5:30Speaker 2: think it's Australia white. But so you want to discourage
- 5:33Speaker 2: them from thinking that your yard is a nice, calm
- 5:37Speaker 2: place to live. So I am racing after this thing
- 5:39Speaker 2: with a broom, smacking it on the ground, screaming like
- 5:42Speaker 2: a lunatic, whacking the pool fence, whacking the metal outdoor table,
- 5:46Speaker 2: whacking the side fan. This thing left and obviously when
- 5:50Speaker 2: I got to get out of here, she is a lunatic.
- 5:52Speaker 2: We're all to take.
- 5:53Speaker 3: Your neighbors with it, because surely they all heard this commotion.
- 5:56Speaker 3: And where we're out to.
- 5:57Speaker 2: No, no, well, everyone's away on holidays, so that's nice, perfect,
- 6:01Speaker 2: But an hour later, the damn thing's back, just wandering
- 6:04Speaker 2: around the yard again, like, oh hi guys. The thought
- 6:06Speaker 2: i'd cop and catch up. But it was the funniest thing.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Just there's a turkey in the house, having a turkey.
- 6:12Speaker 1: I see our chicken sometimes wander into the house and
- 6:15Speaker 1: we have to if we've got the doors open, because
- 6:17Speaker 1: we've got fifteen chooks.
- 6:18Speaker 2: Well, but they're residents, right, they are residents.
- 6:21Speaker 3: Actually we had seven, we had seventeen chooks.
- 6:23Speaker 1: We also have a pair of wedge tarl eagles living
- 6:25Speaker 1: on our farm, which are beautiful in which we like
- 6:27Speaker 1: to show visitors. The downside is, since we got rid
- 6:30Speaker 1: of our dog, is that there's nothing to discourage the eagles
- 6:34Speaker 1: from the chickens.
- 6:36Speaker 2: Fancy, I feel like chicken tonight.
- 6:39Speaker 1: Yeah, And so the chiks are Evelyn's right, So we
- 6:43Speaker 1: don't give her pocket money. We buy her chickens and
- 6:47Speaker 1: we've bought a fancy schmancy coop that you can move around,
- 6:50Speaker 1: and we pay for the food. She has to look
- 6:54Speaker 1: after the chickens and collect the eggs and then she
- 6:57Speaker 1: sells the eggs, right, and they're beauty.
- 7:00Speaker 2: A little snow business one.
- 7:01Speaker 3: It is a little micro business.
- 7:03Speaker 1: And we teach her about at the moment she's having
- 7:06Speaker 1: to negotiate with her customers because she needs to lift
- 7:09Speaker 1: the price.
- 7:10Speaker 3: So currently they're five dollars.
- 7:11Speaker 1: And she needs to make it six dollars because that
- 7:14Speaker 1: is a bargain.
- 7:15Speaker 3: For it's such a bargain, and we deliver ride.
- 7:18Speaker 2: Yeah, so need to my house.
- 7:20Speaker 3: No, no, we don't quite drive all the way to Sydney,
- 7:23Speaker 3: but we delivered. We delivered to Ballener.
- 7:25Speaker 1: So she's got one of a girl who she went
- 7:27Speaker 1: to school with. Her brother is Vegio and he's sixteen
- 7:30Speaker 1: or seventeen and he can't get enough eggs into his sister.
- 7:33Speaker 1: So her parents just buy almost all our eggs. And
- 7:36Speaker 1: then her mum works at flight center at a local
- 7:39Speaker 1: business in Balano, and then all these women have gone
- 7:41Speaker 1: who she works with, like, oh, five bucks for farm
- 7:43Speaker 1: fresh delivered eggs.
- 7:44Speaker 3: We'll have a piece of action.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Anyway, So we did went and did a little wreki
- 7:47Speaker 1: recently of all the farms in the area. We bought
- 7:49Speaker 1: cartons of eggs from all of them, so she could
- 7:51Speaker 1: do you know, like, okay, so now you're checking out
- 7:53Speaker 1: your market, checking out rice.
- 7:55Speaker 3: Yep.
- 7:56Speaker 1: So she tried to have this conversation with this woman
- 7:59Speaker 1: about a price increase on text. We've just said to it, no,
- 8:03Speaker 1: you can't have that conversation over text. You actually have
- 8:05Speaker 1: to go in and have a face to face conversation, which,
- 8:08Speaker 1: as we are learning, skin like having an actual in
- 8:12Speaker 1: real life conversation with.
- 8:14Speaker 3: A human scares the shit out of.
- 8:16Speaker 1: Anyone under fifteen, right, and so because they're also used
- 8:19Speaker 1: to their phones, and we're like, no, no, no, you have
- 8:20Speaker 1: to go in and have this conversation telling your raising.
- 8:23Speaker 1: You got to tell her why. You've got to have
- 8:24Speaker 1: the conversation. So it's so good because it teaches her
- 8:27Speaker 1: all about that. But the downside is every time an
- 8:29Speaker 1: eagle comes, she can see money flying away.
- 8:32Speaker 2: Right, there's a dog. You've got Evelyn out there running
- 8:37Speaker 2: around the yard.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Well she does now, so there's that's actually really heartbreaking
- 8:41Speaker 1: to go out and find a pile of brown feathers
- 8:44Speaker 1: because you know the eagles have been But she's also
- 8:46Speaker 1: doubly whacked because it's killing her for a pocket This
- 8:49Speaker 1: is her pocket money, right, so it's hurting her at
- 8:52Speaker 1: the moment. So yeah, anyway, so but occasionally check.
- 8:56Speaker 2: This little system though, rather than giving her pocket money,
- 8:58Speaker 2: is allowing her to earn it that way.
- 9:01Speaker 3: It is a good system. And too where I got
- 9:02Speaker 3: the idea from from Laura Guy.
- 9:04Speaker 1: It's former Diamonds captain who grew up in the country
- 9:07Speaker 1: and her parents bought her a potty calf. So that's
- 9:10Speaker 1: a calf that you've got to feed yourself. And she
- 9:13Speaker 1: had to raise it, and then her dad would let
- 9:15Speaker 1: his bull service it, and then she would have to
- 9:18Speaker 1: look after.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Get your bull off my pet, please, dad? Did you
- 9:28Speaker 2: see I haven't. I haven't managed to get to the
- 9:31Speaker 2: bottom of this, but I just saw something that was
- 9:33Speaker 2: apparently on the evening news last night that there's been
- 9:37Speaker 2: some screw up Quanus. There was a flight somewhere and
- 9:40Speaker 2: they put on an R rated movie that it must
- 9:43Speaker 2: have been an old plane, so it was just one
- 9:45Speaker 2: TV by the sounds of themes, and so there was
- 9:48Speaker 2: no way that the passengers could turn up.
- 9:51Speaker 3: Now.
- 9:51Speaker 2: I haven't been able to verify this, but you know,
- 9:53Speaker 2: it's one of those things that you go, I don't
- 9:54Speaker 2: even care if that's true. That's a funny story. That's great.
- 9:59Speaker 1: What haven't did like some flight host or the pilot
- 10:04Speaker 1: have porn or something going.
- 10:06Speaker 2: I have no idea. Let's put this whole video on.
- 10:09Speaker 2: I don't even know what the system is like anymore.
- 10:11Speaker 2: Do they have cartridges or what is it? But what
- 10:15Speaker 2: a classic. You're on the flight and it's you say
- 10:17Speaker 2: to your kid, just okay, great, you watch the movie.
- 10:20Speaker 2: It's going to be fantastic and it's.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Oh can we imagine, Oh my god, that will be
- 10:26Speaker 1: like flying Hi playing on you do you know? Years
- 10:30Speaker 1: ago before we had kids, Matthew and I went to
- 10:33Speaker 1: South America on a holiday and we caught the bus
- 10:36Speaker 1: from Lpez in Bolivia to up to the Salt sort
- 10:41Speaker 1: of lakes, which is beautiful, but anyone who's been there
- 10:43Speaker 1: would know that like red lights and traffic lights in
- 10:48Speaker 1: Bolivia are not the rules, they're just a suggestions. Nobody
- 10:52Speaker 1: takes any notice that whole area is notorious for fatal
- 10:56Speaker 1: bus crashes. So when we caught the original bus into
- 10:59Speaker 1: Lapadz from like Diddy Kaka because it's always fun to say.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Lake, did he fun to say? Yeah?
- 11:04Speaker 1: So the bus that was in front of us, when
- 11:06Speaker 1: it pulled up, they got out fourteen from underneath the
- 11:09Speaker 1: area you know where all the bags are. Instead of
- 11:11Speaker 1: getting out bags, they pulled out fourteen coffins from the
- 11:15Speaker 1: bus crash that had happened the day before. So we
- 11:18Speaker 1: were like, oh my god, what's going on. So then
- 11:21Speaker 1: after dealing with what Paz and all of the like,
- 11:24Speaker 1: I loved it. My husband is not a great traveler,
- 11:26Speaker 1: so he just he really struggled a bit, but I
- 11:30Speaker 1: was like, come on, let's take on the traffic. He's like, no,
- 11:32Speaker 1: let's just sit here for the full five days, not move.
- 11:34Speaker 1: So and then we got on this bus to go
- 11:37Speaker 1: to up to the salt sort of lakes, and so
- 11:40Speaker 1: he's really nervous because he's just seen all these coffins
- 11:43Speaker 1: come out five days earlier from the coach that was
- 11:45Speaker 1: in front of us. And then as we drive up
- 11:48Speaker 1: to these salt lakes, the movie that comes on dubbed
- 11:51Speaker 1: in Spanish but played really loudly because everyone had to
- 11:54Speaker 1: watch it through the bus, was Saving Private Ryan.
- 11:56Speaker 3: And you know that that sequence where it's just all Cardige. Yeah, yeah,
- 12:07Speaker 3: this goes for bodies.
- 12:09Speaker 2: Blood were just like it goes for I wonder why
- 12:13Speaker 2: Matthew is not a great traveler. No, this just sounds
- 12:15Speaker 2: incredibly traumatic.
- 12:17Speaker 3: I was crying with laughter.
- 12:19Speaker 2: In the nineties, my friend her mum died after a
- 12:22Speaker 2: long illness, long cancer, and like it was about a
- 12:24Speaker 2: week after the funeral, I said to another friend, let's
- 12:26Speaker 2: just take her out, Let's go to a movie. So
- 12:29Speaker 2: we decided to go to a movie. But we didn't
- 12:31Speaker 2: know anything, and it's pre internet, so you just go
- 12:32Speaker 2: out and know what's this? This beent middle of movie?
- 12:35Speaker 2: It looks good. Let's go and see beaches. So we
- 12:37Speaker 2: wan to see beaches to cheer her up because it's terrible.
- 12:43Speaker 2: It's terrible. Hey, knock, knock, knock on the door. Here's Katherine.
- 12:48Speaker 3: Oh I know Catherine.
- 12:50Speaker 4: Oh, hi, guys, I've just joined it. That really depressing
- 12:53Speaker 4: story about seeing beaches.
- 12:56Speaker 2: Did you? But that's where when Beneath the Wings comes from, too,
- 12:58Speaker 2: isn't it.
- 12:59Speaker 4: It's and that's the only way that we're allowed to
- 13:02Speaker 4: talk about us? Is that?
- 13:04Speaker 3: Really?
- 13:05Speaker 4: It's such such a depressing movie. Are you talking about
- 13:08Speaker 4: first movies? Here? What have I come in on?
- 13:10Speaker 2: Talking about movies that can heap trauma on trauma? But Liz,
- 13:14Speaker 2: can we go back? I've written down Laura Guides.
- 13:17Speaker 3: So Laura Greats was telling me about her parents.
- 13:19Speaker 1: The way that she got her pocket money was rather
- 13:21Speaker 1: than actually giving her pocket money for chores, they bought
- 13:23Speaker 1: her a podcaft which she had to raise, and then
- 13:25Speaker 1: her dad's bull would service the car. When it became
- 13:29Speaker 1: a heifer, it would service the heifer, and then she
- 13:32Speaker 1: would help to sort of look after the offspring, and
- 13:35Speaker 1: then she would get to sell it, right, So once
- 13:37Speaker 1: every year she'd have her payday and it just depends
- 13:40Speaker 1: on the state of the cattle market, but you might
- 13:42Speaker 1: get anywhere from five hundred to one thousand bucks for
- 13:45Speaker 1: that offspring.
- 13:45Speaker 2: And this is her pet going off to become Now
- 13:48Speaker 2: this is.
- 13:49Speaker 1: Her pet's child, a woman, the child of her pet,
- 13:54Speaker 1: the offspring of her and the dad's bull.
- 13:57Speaker 3: And we were like and so we thought about that anyway,
- 13:59Speaker 3: We must have thought.
- 14:00Speaker 1: About it during a time and it was difficult to
- 14:02Speaker 1: get potty carts, so we sort of thought, oh, well,
- 14:04Speaker 1: a chicken business is the next best thing. And it's
- 14:06Speaker 1: actually been really good for Evyling because she has to
- 14:08Speaker 1: understand cash flow. She's got to understand her debtors, so
- 14:11Speaker 1: if someone hasn't paid, she actually has to make the
- 14:13Speaker 1: phone call and say have you paid me. She's got
- 14:16Speaker 1: to understand the costs that go into this, so that
- 14:19Speaker 1: even though we cover the cost, she has to we
- 14:21Speaker 1: make her understand what the costs are. And now she's
- 14:23Speaker 1: has to negotiate her pricing crest. So that's been so
- 14:26Speaker 1: good for her. But as the eagles carry off her chickens, yeah,
- 14:30Speaker 1: she's it's really not going very well at the moment,
- 14:32Speaker 1: because we've lost two. So we bought her fifteen chooks
- 14:35Speaker 1: and there was two leftover from the old lot who
- 14:36Speaker 1: we kept so they could show the other chooks how
- 14:39Speaker 1: to be. And I thought, if the eagles carry off
- 14:41Speaker 1: the old chooks, then that's fine. But no, they're carried
- 14:44Speaker 1: off the young chiks because the old choks are smart
- 14:46Speaker 1: enough to take cover when.
- 14:46Speaker 3: They see the eagles in the sky.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Normally board exactly right, Norma and Julie there stills of iron.
- 15:00Speaker 2: Yeah, we've missed you.
- 15:02Speaker 4: Apologies, guys. Daylight savings in Queensland. I was out having a.
- 15:07Speaker 2: Little saving in Queensland. That's the thing.
- 15:10Speaker 4: Well it should be, You're right, because it three me
- 15:13Speaker 4: completely forgot about it. We're up here doing our own
- 15:15Speaker 4: thing and I was out having a coffee and a
- 15:17Speaker 4: stroll with the dog and Harper, and then I get
- 15:19Speaker 4: the text message saying I'll be there in five I'm like,
- 15:21Speaker 4: oh crap, I won't.
- 15:25Speaker 3: Well.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Two things that we did talk about was the fact
- 15:27Speaker 1: that this is not your first radio.
- 15:29Speaker 3: You go to Queensland quite a bit, and.
- 15:31Speaker 1: So this is you know, you should no better but
- 15:34Speaker 1: be it's such a beautiful thing.
- 15:36Speaker 3: For me to be anywhere before you, so I'm so happy.
- 15:42Speaker 4: To get apologies everyone. Okay, question do you guys have
- 15:50Speaker 4: Was there a public holiday in New South Wales yesterday?
- 15:53Speaker 2: I'm right there was and there was.
- 15:55Speaker 4: Okay, so we're in sync again because I feel like
- 15:57Speaker 4: Queen's Birthday was completely different in Queensland and New South Wales.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Well it is so Queensland I think had the King's
- 16:04Speaker 2: Birthday holiday yesterday and we down here had Labour Day,
- 16:09Speaker 2: so I don't understand.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Come on, but do you know what actually, probably Queensland
- 16:14Speaker 1: Birthday Queensland is one hour and twenty years behind, so
- 16:17Speaker 1: they'll have the Queen's Birthday long weekend for another twenty years,
- 16:20Speaker 1: and then in twenty forty it'll be a King's Birthday
- 16:24Speaker 1: long weekend.
- 16:25Speaker 3: But that king then will be wead.
- 16:26Speaker 4: So at least we all had a day off yesterday together.
- 16:29Speaker 4: That's nice.
- 16:30Speaker 2: I was reminded when watching the Roses and Diamonds game.
- 16:34Speaker 2: Just thought maybe i'd mentioned some netball at some stage
- 16:37Speaker 2: in our discussion here today when they played God Save
- 16:40Speaker 2: the King, which is of course the national anthem. When
- 16:42Speaker 2: I started primary school, God Save the Queen was the
- 16:44Speaker 2: national anthem and we would sing it on parade every morning,
- 16:47Speaker 2: did you we'd stand to attention. This is in Queensland
- 16:51Speaker 2: Public Primary school, Yeah, Malcovat State School, then McGregor State School,
- 16:55Speaker 2: then Kelvin Grove State School. Yeah, so it was actually May.
- 16:59Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 16:59Speaker 2: I think it was not until I was in high
- 17:00Speaker 2: school that we changed to Advance Australia.
- 17:03Speaker 4: For I was listening to it, though, I must say
- 17:06Speaker 4: during the test matches it is the easiest anthem going around,
- 17:10Speaker 4: although Stacey Francis Bayman did tell me that you have
- 17:13Speaker 4: to be able to get pretty high to sing it. Acrat.
- 17:17Speaker 4: Oh god, there's nothing worse than an Advanced Australia fair
- 17:20Speaker 4: house is the worst.
- 17:21Speaker 2: I liked the national anthem rendition at the NRL Grand
- 17:25Speaker 2: Final much more than the AFL Grand Final. There was
- 17:27Speaker 2: much less messing about with it, so it was sung
- 17:31Speaker 2: much more to the actual tune. It wasn't so much
- 17:35Speaker 2: a performance as a leading the country in the national antha.
- 17:39Speaker 4: Yes, well that's interesting because I thought Cody Simpson did
- 17:42Speaker 4: an incredible job at the AFL Grand Final, actually not
- 17:45Speaker 4: going too crazy with it.
- 17:47Speaker 2: But at the end it was all sorts of different
- 17:49Speaker 2: trala laing in the last couple of notes serious, I'm lost. Yeah, yeah,
- 17:53Speaker 2: well you know, or fair airing as it would be,
- 17:57Speaker 2: so I just yeah. And interestingly, more NRL players singing
- 18:03Speaker 2: the national anthem than AFL players.
- 18:06Speaker 4: Oh that is interesting, right? Who sang the anthem at
- 18:10Speaker 4: the NRL's Grand.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Daddy watching Daddy m and the kid LAROI did the opening.
- 18:15Speaker 2: He was amazed.
- 18:16Speaker 3: He was so good, finished off with a bit of inexcess.
- 18:19Speaker 4: It was so good. How about your team thoughly zelus
- 18:23Speaker 4: four of the about my team now?
- 18:24Speaker 3: Someone accused me recently.
- 18:25Speaker 1: I think it was my nephew, who he's designed now
- 18:28Speaker 1: of being a bandwagon jumper because I cheered for Penrith.
- 18:31Speaker 1: I was like, oh mate, I cheered for Penrith since
- 18:34Speaker 1: the eighties when they were the Chocolate Soldiers and my dad,
- 18:37Speaker 1: my late dad and I used to trundle out to
- 18:39Speaker 1: Penrith Park and just watch Penrith getting pumped.
- 18:43Speaker 3: But I love them so.
- 18:44Speaker 1: Actually I cheered for the Jets, the Newtown Jets for
- 18:47Speaker 1: some I don't know why, and then when they got
- 18:50Speaker 1: kicked and then when they got kicked out, but they
- 18:52Speaker 1: were in the grand actually won the state Championships Grand
- 18:55Speaker 1: Final this year. But when the Jets got kicked out
- 18:58Speaker 1: after the nineteen eighty two and find what I think
- 19:00Speaker 1: it was. I was like, right, I've got a cheer
- 19:02Speaker 1: for someone, and my dad cheer for Paramatter or as
- 19:05Speaker 1: we like to say, Paris Matter. Dad cheer for Paramatter,
- 19:08Speaker 1: and I was like, well, that's good, but I'll cheer
- 19:11Speaker 1: for the local team because I lived near Penrith, so yes,
- 19:14Speaker 1: and I thought it was really interesting, right. I read
- 19:17Speaker 1: Andrew Webster wrote a great article in the Sydney Morning
- 19:19Speaker 1: Herald yesterday about Penrith, about Ivan Cleary, and I think
- 19:23Speaker 1: it just goes across all sports, about just the work
- 19:27Speaker 1: that's like the impact that sport can have on the community.
- 19:30Speaker 1: And it was, you know, when Ivan Cleary first turned
- 19:33Speaker 1: up at Penrith in twenty twelve, he looked around and
- 19:35Speaker 1: no one at Penrith was wearing Penrith uniforms and jerseys,
- 19:39Speaker 1: and lots of people were wearing like Paramatter and Canterbury
- 19:41Speaker 1: so other Western Suburbs teams, but there was almost like
- 19:45Speaker 1: people went proud of their own local team because they
- 19:47Speaker 1: weren't winners as a all. And he sort of set
- 19:50Speaker 1: out to change that culture with Phil Good and there's
- 19:52Speaker 1: been a bit of back and forth, but in this
- 19:55Speaker 1: iteration of Ivan Cleary's coaching, they've actually made it.
- 19:59Speaker 3: They've got the team back into the community.
- 20:02Speaker 1: And so now not only are the number one jerseys
- 20:05Speaker 1: sold out, but the pink jerseys they wore the other
- 20:07Speaker 1: night and they had to wear that because they were
- 20:09Speaker 1: their way team. They sold out weeks ago as well,
- 20:12Speaker 1: you know, And so that's like the that's the top
- 20:14Speaker 1: level sort of reflection of the Pride.
- 20:16Speaker 3: But the other thing is that.
- 20:17Speaker 1: These players do a lot of Almost all the players
- 20:21Speaker 1: are homegrown, so Penrith has this amazing nursery of junior
- 20:24Speaker 1: rugby league players.
- 20:26Speaker 3: It is amazing, isn't it.
- 20:27Speaker 1: And then so basically they grow them and they win
- 20:30Speaker 1: premierships and they send them out. So you know, a
- 20:32Speaker 1: number of that team are leaving that leaving Penrith this year.
- 20:36Speaker 1: But the work that they do in the community, there's
- 20:38Speaker 1: been a significant reduction in gang related violence since they
- 20:42Speaker 1: actually did this. So I, you know, like I have
- 20:45Speaker 1: these these these dreams and plans for how netball We're
- 20:48Speaker 1: going to get netball. It's a great community sport, but
- 20:51Speaker 1: then how do we actually really target our elite players
- 20:55Speaker 1: to address issues. And I think this is a really
- 20:57Speaker 1: good example of how of how you can use your
- 21:00Speaker 1: elite players in a really positive way in the community.
- 21:03Speaker 1: And I thought that was just such a fascinating reflection
- 21:05Speaker 1: of someone coming and going our community isn't proud of
- 21:08Speaker 1: us to change it around.
- 21:10Speaker 3: There's a couple of things.
- 21:11Speaker 1: Yes, you need to win, or you need to be competitive,
- 21:13Speaker 1: because then you've got a team you can get behind,
- 21:15Speaker 1: but you get your players back into the community from
- 21:18Speaker 1: whence they came, from where they grew, and they've really
- 21:21Speaker 1: made enormous strides in that regard as well. I thought
- 21:23Speaker 1: it was just a fascinating reflection of what sport can do.
- 21:26Speaker 1: And I think it's a really easy thing to be
- 21:29Speaker 1: dismissive of sport as a bit, you know, it's a
- 21:32Speaker 1: bit of fluff or it's the opiate of the masses,
- 21:34Speaker 1: but there is really significant change that can happen when
- 21:38Speaker 1: you think carefully about how you deploy your elite players
- 21:40Speaker 1: back into the community.
- 21:42Speaker 2: Yeah, one of the things I was thinking about on
- 21:44Speaker 2: the weekend. So this is for those who don't care
- 21:46Speaker 2: about NRL, and I acknowledge that there are quite a
- 21:48Speaker 2: lot of people. Penrith Panthers have just won their fourth
- 21:51Speaker 2: Grand Final in a row now that has not been
- 21:53Speaker 2: done in the modern era of rugby league, and the
- 21:55Speaker 2: modern era being an era where the clubs have to
- 21:58Speaker 2: play to a salary cap, except Melbourne apparently sometimes don't
- 22:01Speaker 2: have to play with the salary cap, but they've done
- 22:04Speaker 2: their time for that. But Jerome lou I said after
- 22:07Speaker 2: the game, this will never happen again, and I'm I'm
- 22:10Speaker 2: interested in that because it's like, well, it has happened
- 22:12Speaker 2: in the modern era under a salary cap, so therefore,
- 22:16Speaker 2: as difficult as it may be, there is no evidence
- 22:19Speaker 2: to suggest that it can't ever happen again. But it's
- 22:22Speaker 2: been a long time since it's happened, and I just
- 22:24Speaker 2: there's a lot of talk about this is the greatest
- 22:26Speaker 2: rugby league team that has ever played and it's just
- 22:30Speaker 2: interesting to compare things. And I'd be interested to hear
- 22:32Speaker 2: what you two think having played in an era that
- 22:35Speaker 2: is old and daish now but not quite the olden days.
- 22:40Speaker 2: Sounds like this, how do you compare players now and
- 22:45Speaker 2: teams now and achievements when everything changes so much?
- 22:50Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting.
- 22:51Speaker 4: Well, the chalk and cheese, aren't they? Because it's I
- 22:54Speaker 4: feel like back then you had far more loyalty to
- 22:57Speaker 4: a team because you weren't being part so people weren't
- 23:01Speaker 4: moving or shifting or whatever. They were staying with their
- 23:05Speaker 4: core team, weren't they. So I think for us, we
- 23:07Speaker 4: won a lot of premierships off the back of the
- 23:09Speaker 4: fact that we had the same team for a long time.
- 23:12Speaker 4: But then you look at us as athletes and there's
- 23:14Speaker 4: no way in the world we're as fit or as
- 23:17Speaker 4: strong or as fase as any of the current athletes
- 23:19Speaker 4: going around. No chance, because we didn't have the money
- 23:23Speaker 4: coming in to be able to be professional athletes and
- 23:25Speaker 4: to holly and solely focus on that. So there's two
- 23:28Speaker 4: different sides to it, completely different sides to it. But
- 23:31Speaker 4: I understand now how hard it is, and I agree
- 23:33Speaker 4: with him because yeah, you're winning, but everybody else has
- 23:38Speaker 4: now got the time, the funding, that everything else to
- 23:41Speaker 4: continue to raise the bar as well, so they're constantly
- 23:44Speaker 4: coming at you and evolving and all that sort of stuff.
- 23:47Speaker 4: So staying at the top is probably the hardest thing
- 23:50Speaker 4: to do. You know. We spoke about this before, I
- 23:53Speaker 4: think with my Aussie selection, and that for me the
- 23:55Speaker 4: hardest thing wasn't getting there, it was staying there. So
- 23:58Speaker 4: that's now what Penrith is going to do because they're
- 24:00Speaker 4: well and truly the Hunter before the next season even starts.
- 24:04Speaker 1: Yeah, I do think with Pendroth, their advantage is that
- 24:06Speaker 1: they can pick up incredibly talented juniors and grow them.
- 24:09Speaker 3: And that's how you build a good team.
- 24:11Speaker 1: And that's what you know when you look at super netball,
- 24:14Speaker 1: and you know the super Netball is limited by a
- 24:17Speaker 1: salary cap. The real key is not in signing your
- 24:20Speaker 1: marquee players.
- 24:21Speaker 3: The real key is in.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Picking those talented juniors who you get for probably a
- 24:26Speaker 1: bit less than what they're going to be worth. And
- 24:29Speaker 1: you know, if you watch the Moneyball movie, it's a
- 24:32Speaker 1: really good way of showing you how you build a team.
- 24:35Speaker 1: You don't look for your Markee players or players to
- 24:37Speaker 1: fill a hole. You look for players who are undervalued
- 24:40Speaker 1: and or who are junior. And so your junior pathway
- 24:44Speaker 1: has become so important because they're the ones who you
- 24:46Speaker 1: get in before they've proved themselves. But your talent identification
- 24:51Speaker 1: should be good enough to say, yep, she's going to
- 24:52Speaker 1: prove herself in a few years time, where She's going
- 24:55Speaker 1: to be really valuable in a few years.
- 24:56Speaker 3: Time and then Liz.
- 24:57Speaker 4: Isn't the issue with netball that there's not enough spaces
- 25:00Speaker 4: to keep those people and that's why we lose them
- 25:03Speaker 4: to New Zealand or England or to other class It.
- 25:05Speaker 1: Is right, and that's why that's the argument for the
- 25:07Speaker 1: fact that the league really to be sustainable, I think
- 25:09Speaker 1: needs to be expanded. But even apart from that, as
- 25:13Speaker 1: you build your list, you might have your Janiel fowlon
- 25:15Speaker 1: emas or your hell and House big Overseas marquee signings,
- 25:19Speaker 1: you know, or your Diamonds Wiki or you know, for
- 25:22Speaker 1: the Diamonds, you know, there's Sophie Garvin, there's Joe Weston,
- 25:25Speaker 1: there's Liz Watson. There's your big marquee signings in different
- 25:29Speaker 1: parts of the court. But the best way to build
- 25:31Speaker 1: a team is not with your marquee but having a
- 25:33Speaker 1: really good talent identification. So you know, you go to
- 25:38Speaker 1: junior championships and you go to state championships and your
- 25:40Speaker 1: ID players who are going to come through and they're
- 25:42Speaker 1: the ones that are going to win you your grand finals.
- 25:45Speaker 1: Probably I have this theory about winning grand finals, right,
- 25:47Speaker 1: it's not your big players, it's how much your next
- 25:50Speaker 1: level down how close they can get to the performance
- 25:53Speaker 1: of your your big name players.
- 25:55Speaker 4: Because the Adelaide done exactly right.
- 25:58Speaker 1: So you know they've got theymeld Aching at one end
- 26:01Speaker 1: of the court and they've got Shimira Sterling at the
- 26:03Speaker 1: other end of the court. The key is what are
- 26:06Speaker 1: the rest of their players do? What does Matilda Garrett do?
- 26:08Speaker 1: What does Georgie hor Just do, What does Hannah Petty do?
- 26:11Speaker 1: And when that next level is down here, when they
- 26:13Speaker 1: lift up and perform just a little bit high, they're
- 26:16Speaker 1: the ones that are going to win you the Grand Final,
- 26:18Speaker 1: right because your marquet players are going to do what
- 26:20Speaker 1: they do and every team's got them. It's that next
- 26:23Speaker 1: level down who had show the ability.
- 26:25Speaker 3: To step up. And I think the Thunderbirds across the
- 26:27Speaker 3: board did that really well this year.
- 26:30Speaker 2: But with only being able to have ten players on
- 26:32Speaker 2: the on the roster, it's really hard to bring new
- 26:35Speaker 2: talent in. Isn't it too to blog them?
- 26:38Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 26:38Speaker 4: It is.
- 26:39Speaker 3: Yeah, put that on your list of things to do
- 26:41Speaker 3: because I don't have enough.
- 26:44Speaker 2: I think cath Weine agreed that we would not give
- 26:46Speaker 2: these lots of things to put on her list in
- 26:48Speaker 2: this podcast that this would be an oasis of calm
- 26:51Speaker 2: and relaxation, especially no talk of.
- 26:55Speaker 1: Right, especially while we're tap dancing waiting for our third
- 26:57Speaker 1: person to come along and join the conversation.
- 27:01Speaker 4: Yes, sorry, anyway, how is everyone's public holidaated? We all
- 27:04Speaker 4: had that? Oh have we a.
- 27:09Speaker 2: Half an hour?
- 27:10Speaker 3: This is what happened when you're late?
- 27:12Speaker 4: Well, let me tell you a skill I learned online.
- 27:15Speaker 2: Okay, excellent.
- 27:16Speaker 4: So we decided to go out on the water yesterday,
- 27:19Speaker 4: the worst day in the world to do it, because
- 27:21Speaker 4: it was beautiful sun shining, not a breath of winds,
- 27:24Speaker 4: a perfect boating weather. Everyone and their dog in Queensland
- 27:28Speaker 4: was out on the water yesterday. So as soon as
- 27:31Speaker 4: you get out of kind of the main canals and
- 27:33Speaker 4: into the broad water of the open water, it's like
- 27:35Speaker 4: a washing machine, no word of a lie. Every little
- 27:39Speaker 4: bank that's you know, high tide, the banks are all up,
- 27:42Speaker 4: all covered in boats. There's people all over the beaches,
- 27:46Speaker 4: so there's it's nuts. There's people everywhere. The water is
- 27:49Speaker 4: a mess. So we're about three hours into our little
- 27:53Speaker 4: cruise out there getting moved around, and I have to
- 27:56Speaker 4: go to the toilet, so you know, you know mom
- 27:59Speaker 4: and Dad's boat. It's a party pontoon, so it's just
- 28:03Speaker 4: a big, flat, open boat. So there's no toilet on it,
- 28:07Speaker 4: and I'm looking around, thinking, A, there's nowhere we can
- 28:11Speaker 4: pull up, because normally we're just pull into one of
- 28:13Speaker 4: the little banks. And you know, I just half myself
- 28:15Speaker 4: into the water at the back and.
- 28:17Speaker 2: Go to a I'm going to say, you're on the ocean.
- 28:19Speaker 2: That's a giant toilet.
- 28:21Speaker 4: It is, but not when there's this many people around
- 28:23Speaker 4: and the boat are wrapping like crazy. So Dad's got
- 28:27Speaker 4: a collapsible bucket on the boat. I was like, okay,
- 28:30Speaker 4: so this is this is going to have to happen.
- 28:31Speaker 4: I'm going to have to get this bucket and go
- 28:34Speaker 4: to the back of the boat. But then there's people everywhere,
- 28:36Speaker 4: so every five seconds is the boat passing you or
- 28:39Speaker 4: jet skis and the water's like this. It was quite
- 28:43Speaker 4: the challenge. I didn't get any on me.
- 28:45Speaker 2: Everyone well done. I hope you weren't wearing shoes.
- 28:50Speaker 3: Put that on my list of well done. You don't
- 28:53Speaker 3: even need a she wear.
- 28:56Speaker 4: Well. He pulled out this tiny little thing. First.
- 28:58Speaker 2: I was like, nep, come on, man, this is why
- 29:02Speaker 2: I don't like going on boat.
- 29:05Speaker 1: Do you think on those years of pissing into a
- 29:07Speaker 1: container doing drug testing might have helped you.
- 29:09Speaker 4: I was thinking of it exactly, your folks to whistle
- 29:13Speaker 4: when the amount of times I wrote on the you
- 29:17Speaker 4: know after you do your drug test. I don't know
- 29:19Speaker 4: if we've mentioned this before in our drug testing chat,
- 29:21Speaker 4: but had asked for feedback at the end when you've
- 29:24Speaker 4: done all your forms and stuff. I always put bigger beaker, bigger.
- 29:29Speaker 3: Beaker because I have a bigger vagina.
- 29:33Speaker 4: Because it's you know, the boys.
- 29:35Speaker 3: Are so lucky.
- 29:37Speaker 4: Boys are lucky, don't Yeah, so easy for them, So yes,
- 29:40Speaker 4: pat myself at the back we don't go through it.
- 29:42Speaker 2: Well, something else you can pat yourself on the back floor.
- 29:44Speaker 2: So last week you made a confession about your double
- 29:47Speaker 2: dnom Canadian taxiedome new music tastes and your country music.
- 29:52Speaker 2: I was listening to some I was listened to the
- 29:55Speaker 2: radio and there's a new genre of music called cow techno.
- 30:00Speaker 2: So it's country music that has been technified. So there's
- 30:04Speaker 2: one called down in Boots that you should listen to.
- 30:07Speaker 2: And tell me whether does that allow you to bridge
- 30:11Speaker 2: the gap between your country music love and good taste?
- 30:17Speaker 4: Is it techno technique? Because I'm not a big techno fan.
- 30:20Speaker 4: I'm keen to have a listen though.
- 30:31Speaker 3: Across the road.
- 30:33Speaker 2: But now I've got a question for you. By So,
- 30:34Speaker 2: I teach ethics at my daughter's primary school. We have
- 30:38Speaker 2: one class a week, and I'm a volunteer ethics teacher,
- 30:41Speaker 2: but there is a strict curriculum. I don't just make
- 30:43Speaker 2: it up as I go along. You'll be pleased to hear.
- 30:45Speaker 2: But I've got two I've got a Year five class
- 30:47Speaker 2: and a Year one class, and I'm kind of at
- 30:50Speaker 2: odds with one of the questions that the Year one
- 30:52Speaker 2: classes had to have had to deal with relative to
- 30:55Speaker 2: what I am coaching my kids to do on court
- 30:57Speaker 2: by under elevens. So the question that was put to
- 31:01Speaker 2: the year ones is if you're playing soccer and it
- 31:04Speaker 2: touches your hand and you score a goal and the
- 31:07Speaker 2: umpire doesn't see it, do you tell the umpire? And
- 31:10Speaker 2: all the year ones will like, absolutely, You've got to
- 31:13Speaker 2: it's cheating. When I'm coaching my under elevens, if they
- 31:16Speaker 2: are about to step off side or whatever I say,
- 31:19Speaker 2: don't draw attention to it. If the umpire doesn't see it.
- 31:23Speaker 2: It hasn't happened. It's just it's not your job to
- 31:26Speaker 2: police that. So don't you know they step off side
- 31:29Speaker 2: and then make a big gesture of looking at their
- 31:31Speaker 2: feet and going, oh, I'm so sorry and look what
- 31:33Speaker 2: I've done. Silly me, and it's like, no, just just
- 31:36Speaker 2: do what you do, try to get back on side quick,
- 31:38Speaker 2: and you know, we'll deal with whatever happens. So what
- 31:41Speaker 2: do you think is that am I coaching my under
- 31:43Speaker 2: elevens to behave in an unethical fashion?
- 31:45Speaker 3: No, that's a good question.
- 31:46Speaker 1: But I also coach my under thirteens that, regardless of
- 31:50Speaker 1: who hit the ball out, I want them to chase
- 31:51Speaker 1: the ball and pretend like it's they're throwing. Good times potentially,
- 31:56Speaker 1: I've never thought of the ethical issues around that, because
- 31:58Speaker 1: I think it's interesting as I used to think that
- 32:01Speaker 1: back when we were playing, there was a big who
- 32:03Speaker 1: ha because Adam Gilchrist remembered the cricketer used to he
- 32:06Speaker 1: walked a few times if he felt that he was out,
- 32:09Speaker 1: and he got a bit of criticism for that because
- 32:11Speaker 1: he was making a decision that affected.
- 32:13Speaker 3: The whole team in the interest of being ethical.
- 32:15Speaker 1: And you know, I really admired him, and I thought,
- 32:19Speaker 1: would I ever change, Like if I hit the ball
- 32:23Speaker 1: out in the umpire called it our way, would I
- 32:25Speaker 1: say no, No, I hit the ball out?
- 32:27Speaker 4: And I came to the very different elite sport though,
- 32:30Speaker 4: right with the pressures of what's happening in elite sport
- 32:34Speaker 4: as opposed to under eleven snapw nod.
- 32:37Speaker 1: But I was thinking about it in terms of like,
- 32:39Speaker 1: would I have done it like so Adam Gilchrist was
- 32:41Speaker 1: playing for Australia. Would I have done it playing for
- 32:44Speaker 1: the Swift still playing for Australia. And I came to
- 32:47Speaker 1: the conclusion that I wouldn't because there's plenty of times
- 32:50Speaker 1: and I know this is probably the wrong answer completely
- 32:52Speaker 1: now that I'm thinking about it. There's plenty of times
- 32:54Speaker 1: where the throwing should go your way and it doesn't,
- 32:57Speaker 1: or where you think you hit the ball off last,
- 32:59Speaker 1: but when you go and look at the replay, actually
- 33:03Speaker 1: somebody else touched it or you actually the umpire got
- 33:06Speaker 1: that right. And I think there's an issue about if
- 33:09Speaker 1: you're going to make the umpires call correct or you have.
- 33:12Speaker 3: To respect the umpire's decision.
- 33:14Speaker 1: You can't start doing the umpire's job for her because
- 33:16Speaker 1: if you say no, no, I hit the ball that
- 33:18Speaker 1: it should be their throwing. Then what about the next
- 33:20Speaker 1: time when you go, actually, they hit the ball that
- 33:23Speaker 1: it should be my throwing. Then the umpire's going, well,
- 33:26Speaker 1: oh you told the truth last time. Did I see
- 33:28Speaker 1: it wrong?
- 33:28Speaker 3: Right? So you actually there's a threshold question about It's
- 33:31Speaker 3: not about whether you make that decision. It's about well,
- 33:33Speaker 3: who's in charge of the game. And in cricket, for example,
- 33:36Speaker 3: there is this code of the players can call it.
- 33:39Speaker 1: But in netball we're very much the umpire's decision is
- 33:42Speaker 1: the final decision, and even when it's massively wrong, it's
- 33:45Speaker 1: still the final decision. So it's not up to the
- 33:47Speaker 1: players to overrule the umpire over and if it's in
- 33:49Speaker 1: the other team's favor. So I think you're teaching your kids, Carol,
- 33:53Speaker 1: on the right thing. Unless there's something really demonstrable. I
- 33:56Speaker 1: think as long and as long as they respect that
- 33:58Speaker 1: when the umpire's decision go against them, they still have
- 34:01Speaker 1: to go, Okay, we've got to get on with it.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Then you just go yes, and there's any bitching against
- 34:07Speaker 2: the umpire, but I'm just going your job is to
- 34:09Speaker 2: play netbook. Their job is to direct how the game
- 34:12Speaker 2: is going.
- 34:13Speaker 4: So I think if you're an individual athlete, it can
- 34:16Speaker 4: be as honest as you like knock yourself out. But
- 34:19Speaker 4: he's so right. I think that's a tricky one for him,
- 34:21Speaker 4: in particular in a team sport, as you make those
- 34:24Speaker 4: calls and your whole team. Imagine in a World Cup
- 34:27Speaker 4: if we were down by one or something leads, or
- 34:30Speaker 4: we were up by one and the team was chasing,
- 34:32Speaker 4: there's a few seconds left and one of our teammates said,
- 34:34Speaker 4: oh no, I went off side and you'd killed them.
- 34:36Speaker 3: Well, yeah, and that's something that Selenda Gilsoner would do
- 34:39Speaker 3: because she's.
- 34:39Speaker 1: So honest, right, we had to get her out of
- 34:43Speaker 1: you know, she had this mentality that if she got
- 34:45Speaker 1: a few intercepts in a row, she'd let her get
- 34:47Speaker 1: the ball a few times to sort of eaven it up.
- 34:49Speaker 3: And I was like, imagine being that. But that good
- 34:51Speaker 3: that you can do that. So anyway, we beat that, Adam.
- 34:54Speaker 1: But if it was the player's job to unpire the
- 34:56Speaker 1: game as they went, then yeah, you absolutely have to
- 34:58Speaker 1: tell the truth. But in changing as much as we
- 35:03Speaker 1: don't want kids or players to be challenging the umpire,
- 35:06Speaker 1: when they get it wrong. When we think they get
- 35:08Speaker 1: it wrong and the call goes against us. We actually
- 35:11Speaker 1: have to be careful about challenging when we think they
- 35:13Speaker 1: get it wrong and the call is going with us.
- 35:16Speaker 1: You know, you have to just set a level of
- 35:18Speaker 1: behavior and that's it. So it's about accepting what the
- 35:20Speaker 1: umpire says.
- 35:22Speaker 4: There you go, did that answer your ques chat?
- 35:24Speaker 1: Well?
- 35:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and I think this is what's beauty
- 35:27Speaker 2: beautiful about a discussion about ethics is that there's never
- 35:29Speaker 2: a right answer. That there's only different lenses that you
- 35:32Speaker 2: can look at something through, and ultimately you have to
- 35:34Speaker 2: make your own decisions. And I'm still going to be
- 35:37Speaker 2: saying the same thing to the girls. It's like the
- 35:39Speaker 2: umpire has to do their job and they ones can
- 35:41Speaker 2: be as virtuous as they like. We've moved on from
- 35:44Speaker 2: that topic. That's about all we've got time for. I mean,
- 35:50Speaker 2: this is a sad, sad day for no dribble because
- 35:55Speaker 2: we don't have a win beneath our wings nomination.
- 35:57Speaker 3: That's because nobody likes you when you're twenty three.
- 36:00Speaker 2: Money likes you when you're twenty three. So this is
- 36:02Speaker 2: a call to arms problems, Please get nominating we need
- 36:07Speaker 2: the voice notes. You know, contact us through social media
- 36:10Speaker 2: if you can't work out how to send a voice
- 36:12Speaker 2: note on Instagram. If you look at our Instagram page,
- 36:15Speaker 2: there is a very informative, short entertaining video that I
- 36:18Speaker 2: did on how to send us a voice note through Instagram.
- 36:21Speaker 2: Please keep it less than a minute. We are very
- 36:24Speaker 2: keen to have nominations because we know that this great
- 36:27Speaker 2: game of ours only happens because of the tens of
- 36:30Speaker 2: thousands of volunteers around the country who are keeping it alive.
- 36:34Speaker 2: So it is our twenty third episode and we cannot
- 36:37Speaker 2: possibly have run out of people who need to be
- 36:39Speaker 2: acknowledged for being bloody legends of the Game of Men.
- 36:42Speaker 4: Do you know what I just thought about?
- 36:43Speaker 3: There?
- 36:44Speaker 4: The old twenty three that makes us halfway through our
- 36:46Speaker 4: scrunchies too? Doesn't it.
- 36:49Speaker 2: Time for us to get and we might be down
- 36:54Speaker 2: to the worst ones too?
- 36:57Speaker 3: Maybe that's why people.
- 36:58Speaker 2: Are nominated, because it's like they just said, the best
- 37:00Speaker 2: ones off the way to sell it, way to sell it,
- 37:02Speaker 2: Carolyn's window, way to sell it. No, Kath, we need
- 37:05Speaker 2: to get the machines out again and let's get on
- 37:07Speaker 2: and let's get on it, and yeah, so yeah, please
- 37:11Speaker 2: everyone get behind Win Beneath our Wings. Also get behind
- 37:14Speaker 2: our Facebook page, our Instagram page.
- 37:17Speaker 4: Have we told the dribblers about our little special some
- 37:20Speaker 4: things we'll be doing over the holiday break? Have we
- 37:22Speaker 4: mentioned that yet? While so I wasn't here, No, no,
- 37:25Speaker 4: are we going to or we just leave it at that?
- 37:28Speaker 2: I think we did talk about it last week. Didn't
- 37:29Speaker 2: we say we're looking for some content over the break?
- 37:31Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 37:32Speaker 4: But did we tell them what we planned, what we're
- 37:33Speaker 4: up to already?
- 37:34Speaker 3: Now, let's wait until it's closer to in the year.
- 37:36Speaker 3: It's on October?
- 37:37Speaker 4: Who okay? All, all right, well there's your first tease.
- 37:41Speaker 2: All right, Well, very sad that twenty three episodes in
- 37:43Speaker 2: we do not have a Win Beneath our Wings nomination
- 37:46Speaker 2: for this week. So but I've given you all a
- 37:48Speaker 2: revove about that. But I do want to talk about
- 37:50Speaker 2: one of our earlier wind Beneath our wingers, and that
- 37:53Speaker 2: is the legend who is Bob Jarvis, who we talk
- 37:55Speaker 2: about quite regularly on this podcast. So Barb posted a
- 37:58Speaker 2: photo of herself on the Facebook age with a perm
- 38:01Speaker 2: which is we're very approving of that. It was in
- 38:03Speaker 2: nineteen ninety at her daughter's wedding and it was her
- 38:07Speaker 2: with her husband Ray at their daughter's wedding, and you know,
- 38:11Speaker 2: we found out that Ray passed on the third of
- 38:13Speaker 2: July this year, and you know, Bob came along to
- 38:17Speaker 2: our live event. She brought a crowd with her. She
- 38:21Speaker 2: is obviously just an absolute lynch pin of that Shamrocks
- 38:24Speaker 2: community and so positive and obviously facing just such a
- 38:29Speaker 2: huge loss and personal standards. You never know what people
- 38:32Speaker 2: are going through, because Bob was there with the brightest
- 38:34Speaker 2: of smiles, reving people up, having a great time. And
- 38:37Speaker 2: we just want you to know, Bob, we love you
- 38:39Speaker 2: and we're thinking of you, and we're really grateful for
- 38:41Speaker 2: what you do for No Dribble and the broader netball
- 38:45Speaker 2: community and I'm sure everyone who you touch. So we're
- 38:47Speaker 2: thinking of you, Bob. So this week Kat's going to
- 38:50Speaker 2: go and listen to some cow techno and report back
- 38:52Speaker 2: to us. Next week, Liz is going to be running
- 38:55Speaker 2: around in the yard to protect the chickens and her
- 38:57Speaker 2: daughter's livelihood from the wedgetail eagle. What am I going
- 39:02Speaker 2: to be doing, I don't know. I'm at the comedy
- 39:03Speaker 2: store again this weekend, which is fun. So but oh yeah, yeah,
- 39:07Speaker 2: and then still know netball for me until week after.
- 39:10Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Well they're Australia playing New Zealand, which is pretty exciting. Look,
- 39:12Speaker 1: one of the things I was tasked last week to
- 39:15Speaker 1: go and do a deep dive into Britney Spears Instagram
- 39:17Speaker 1: and I did not so, I think because the weather
- 39:19Speaker 1: was too nice.
- 39:20Speaker 3: I didn't want to be sitting on my screen.
- 39:22Speaker 2: But yet, that's all we've got time for. Please do
- 39:23Speaker 2: get involved in our Facebook page, which I think is
- 39:26Speaker 2: no dribble podcast now Instagram account, which is no underscore
- 39:29Speaker 2: dribble underscore podcast. Lots of you are inviting friends to
- 39:32Speaker 2: join the page. We love that. Please do that. Please
- 39:35Speaker 2: share this podcast with your friends. We know there's a
- 39:38Speaker 2: lot of people who love netball who haven't yet discovered
- 39:41Speaker 2: the Joy of the Dribble. So and get nominating to
- 39:44Speaker 2: win an our wings. But that's all we've got time for.
- 39:47Speaker 2: I'm Carolyn Swindell.
- 39:49Speaker 4: But I like the Joy of the Dribble.
- 39:53Speaker 2: Sounds like a book from the seventies, Joy.
- 39:56Speaker 3: Of the Dribble.
- 39:57Speaker 2: The cartoons that will be the best in that right,
- 40:00Speaker 2: So maybe we won't put that on a T shirt.
- 40:03Speaker 2: We're going to need to find something that's far charmer.
- 40:07Speaker 2: What this picture?
- 40:08Speaker 4: Where the dribble's coming fast?
- 40:11Speaker 2: All right, well, thanks for joining us dribblers. I'm Carolyn
- 40:13Speaker 2: Swindell cat Clox.
- 40:15Speaker 4: I'm tardy, but I.
- 40:16Speaker 1: Got here indeed, and I'm lose Allis and I tried
- 40:18Speaker 1: to go before you and because I'm used to being early.
- 40:21Speaker 2: Now, yeah, it's chaos. It's chaos in the dribble world.
- 40:25Speaker 2: But hopefully Kath will be on time next week. Thanks guys,
- 40:28Speaker 2: have a great week.
