- 0:02Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto, 5AA Early Breakfast.
- 0:06Speaker 2: 504, good morning, high-fivers. Welcome along to 5AA Early Breakfast
- 0:13Speaker 2: on this Monday morning as we kick-start another week for
- 0:16Speaker 2: the 14th day of September. Going for a top of
- 0:20Speaker 2: 18 degrees with a shower or two. Tuesday, 17 degrees
- 0:24Speaker 2: and cloudy. But bear with me because Wednesday 17, Thursday 18,
- 0:28Speaker 2: Friday 22, Saturday 25 degrees and sunny. Bit warm out
- 0:36Speaker 2: there too, 12.1 degrees currently.
- 0:38Speaker 3: Morning, Natty.
- 0:38Speaker 4: Morning, Sammy. Good morning to the High Fivers. Excited for
- 0:41Speaker 4: this show for a variety of reasons.
- 0:44Speaker 5: Mondays traditionally have been our poorer shows of the week.
- 0:47Speaker 2: Oh, you're... A bit of self-reflection.
- 0:49Speaker 5: I've audited how we go throughout the week. Mondays, we
- 0:52Speaker 5: can start a little flat.
- 0:54Speaker 2: A bit of leading teams going on?
- 0:55Speaker 5: Yeah, it just takes a while just to get things started, so...
- 0:59Speaker 5: Just wanted to touch base with you on that. Let's
- 1:02Speaker 5: really come out of the blocks with a head of steam.
- 1:06Speaker 4: Let's begin.
- 1:07Speaker 2: Let's do it then.
- 1:08Speaker 4: With a Mandy and the Blue Brother Bark.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Good morning, Sam and Ned. I hope you are both well.
- 1:15Speaker 2: I'm sorry Adelaide got beaten. A message to Linda, the
- 1:18Speaker 2: lady who came off her mobility scooter. I hope she's
- 1:21Speaker 2: okay and has plenty of emotional support. Have a great show,
- 1:24Speaker 2: Mandy and the Blue Brothers.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Good work, Mandy and those Blue Brothers.
- 1:28Speaker 5: I hope you're well, Mandy, and I hope the tails
- 1:30Speaker 5: are wagging of those Blue Brothers. Some good stuff in that.
- 1:34Speaker 5: We've got a great community within the High Fivers, don't we?
- 1:36Speaker 5: I mean, there's Mandy who's in Victoria wishing one of
- 1:39Speaker 5: our other listeners well because she heard about the incident
- 1:42Speaker 5: that Linda had.
- 1:43Speaker 4: So isn't that lovely? We all support each other.
- 1:46Speaker 6: Brilliant.
- 1:47Speaker 5: I think footy's going to be a hot topic on
- 1:49Speaker 5: today's show. Peter from Marleston Text as well. He said,
- 1:52Speaker 5: bring on Norwood and a different result in 1978. Great
- 1:55Speaker 5: call on AA yesterday. A big Sandville prelim and a
- 2:00Speaker 5: big Crows final.
- 2:02Speaker 2: Where do you want to start?
- 2:04Speaker 5: Well, let's start with the Sandville. Let's just wrap a
- 2:07Speaker 5: bow on that. Did you watch Sturt vs.
- 2:08Speaker 7: Eagles?
- 2:09Speaker 2: I was on the boundary for Sturt vs. Eagles.
- 2:11Speaker 4: What did you think?
- 2:12Speaker 2: I thought... Want to know what really stood out to me?
- 2:17Speaker 4: Yep, yep.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Tell me. And I could be completely wrong, because as
- 2:20Speaker 2: a footy fan... I'm not into footy like yourself or
- 2:24Speaker 2: Tuggers or Rowe. I can't analytically look at the game
- 2:27Speaker 2: of footy like I do a motorsport race. I can
- 2:30Speaker 2: break that down till five in the morning. So with footy,
- 2:34Speaker 2: it's just what I see. I don't understand why Jimmy
- 2:37Speaker 2: Rowe isn't on an AFL list.
- 2:39Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a gun.
- 2:40Speaker 2: He is the sort of mongrel that there just isn't
- 2:45Speaker 2: enough of anymore. And I would quite happily have him
- 2:48Speaker 2: at Port Adelaide.
- 2:48Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got some talent.
- 2:50Speaker 5: I think that There's a lot of people and a
- 2:52Speaker 5: lot of players at Sample level or VFL level that
- 2:55Speaker 5: could contribute in some way to.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Ash Johnson, machine. Goes down with a knock to the knee,
- 3:00Speaker 2: comes back on heroically, takes a massive grab, kicks a
- 3:03Speaker 2: couple more goals.
- 3:04Speaker 5: Whilst I did admit that I do think there are
- 3:07Speaker 5: players in secondary leagues that can contribute to the AFL,
- 3:10Speaker 5: the gap between the Sample and the AFL is significant.
- 3:14Speaker 4: It's a big gap, and I think.
- 3:17Speaker 5: In my opinion, it's gotten bigger recently.
- 3:19Speaker 4: The gap between the AFL and.
- 3:20Speaker 2: The Sample has gotten bigger.
- 3:21Speaker 4: Why do you think that is?
- 3:22Speaker 5: I don't think the Sample is as good a competition
- 3:24Speaker 5: as what it was five, six years ago.
- 3:27Speaker 4: There you go. No, I don't think it is.
- 3:28Speaker 5: The quality of players, just because of the structure around
- 3:31Speaker 5: country leagues and people leaving earlier for money.
- 3:34Speaker 2: So it's not so much that the AFL is diluting
- 3:36Speaker 2: the pool, it's the players are going to different leagues
- 3:39Speaker 2: underneath the AFL.
- 3:40Speaker 4: Yeah. The Sample should have.
- 3:44Speaker 5: Everyone outside of an AFL list, the best players in
- 3:47Speaker 5: South Australia that reside in this state playing in it.
- 3:49Speaker 5: And at the moment, that's not the case. So it's
- 3:52Speaker 5: just as simple as that. There's just other incentives to
- 3:55Speaker 5: not play Sample. Who watched the Sample prelim?
- 3:59Speaker 1: 8223 0000.
- 3:59Speaker 4: We'd love your thoughts. And then the Crows... With the
- 4:03Speaker 4: other one, Sammy, wow. Talk about a hot start.
- 4:07Speaker 2: So while we're on the sand full, let's probably just
- 4:10Speaker 2: stick with that for a second because we've got Nostradamus
- 4:14Speaker 2: himself on the line. Peter from Milestone.
- 4:16Speaker 4: Is he on the line?
- 4:17Speaker 2: Is he?
- 4:18Speaker 5: Just goes short.
- 4:21Speaker 6: The Double Blues will play off in a grand final.
- 4:24Speaker 4: As Snelling said, he's going to have a pop at it.
- 4:26Speaker 6: They were challenged.
- 4:28Speaker 5: Early, hit by injuries, but we get a look.
- 4:32Speaker 4: At a famous old duo next week.
- 4:34Speaker 2: Peter from Alston, good morning.
- 4:36Speaker 8: Good morning.
- 4:37Speaker 9: Before I say anything, I did say 30 points and
- 4:41Speaker 9: Paddy Goldsmith said three goals. So who won that bet?
- 4:45Speaker 5: Well, I think you did. What was the margin in
- 4:47Speaker 5: the end? It was more than three goals.
- 4:48Speaker 6: 39?
- 4:50Speaker 1: Yeah, well done.
- 4:52Speaker 4: Well done, Peter from Alston.
- 4:53Speaker 9: Anyway, I was having kittens during the second quarter when
- 4:57Speaker 9: the Eagles were very dominant and the game changed And
- 5:02Speaker 9: I thought Jimmy Rowe was outstanding, but I think Tommy
- 5:05Speaker 9: Lewis is one of the most inspirational leaders in the game.
- 5:09Speaker 9: And I thought Ash Johnson was material. And also Will
- 5:13Speaker 9: Snelling and all the backline stood up. Koumblas, Edmonds. We
- 5:20Speaker 9: lost Jared Dakin early, and poor old young Casey Voss
- 5:25Speaker 9: went down with a possible broken shoulder or arm. and
- 5:29Speaker 9: I've suffered one of them, and it's not funny. And
- 5:31Speaker 9: we're going to go into next week's game a rank underdog,
- 5:35Speaker 9: just as Norwood did in 1978. But we have faith
- 5:38Speaker 9: in our coach, Marty Matner. We have faith in the
- 5:42Speaker 9: footy god and Sturt by 19 points.
- 5:45Speaker 6: Oh, no.
- 5:47Speaker 10: Peter.
- 5:48Speaker 9: We are better than Norwood.
- 5:50Speaker 1: No, you're not.
- 5:50Speaker 9: We beat them at Norwood.
- 5:51Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 5:52Speaker 4: You're not. Norwood will beat you.
- 5:54Speaker 9: We beat them at Norwood by five points. They beat
- 5:57Speaker 9: us at Unley. It's 2-1 Norwood, and in 1978, we
- 6:02Speaker 9: smashed them in the second semi, and they beat us
- 6:05Speaker 9: by one point. I'm predicting a crowd close to 40,000,
- 6:09Speaker 9: and I think we're capable of winning this game. And
- 6:12Speaker 9: Marty Matner is going for a fourth premiership, and Jay Chidi,
- 6:16Speaker 9: his good friend.
- 6:17Speaker 11: Is going for a third.
- 6:19Speaker 9: Stan for coaching premiership. Two material coaches. What a mouth-watering game.
- 6:25Speaker 9: Get there or be square.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Well done, Peter.
- 6:28Speaker 4: That was great.
- 6:29Speaker 2: That's the biggest pump-up I think a Sandville Grand Final
- 6:32Speaker 2: has ever had.
- 6:33Speaker 12: Wow.
- 6:33Speaker 4: That should be clipped up, Peter. That was awesome. A
- 6:36Speaker 4: one for your pump-up for Sturton, two just for the
- 6:38Speaker 4: Sandville League.
- 6:39Speaker 12: Brilliant.
- 6:39Speaker 2: I note that, though, he mentioned the two games during
- 6:42Speaker 2: the season. He forgot to mention the semifinal. A week
- 6:45Speaker 2: or so ago, 58-39, Norwood won that to get into
- 6:49Speaker 2: the grand final.
- 6:49Speaker 5: He has out-tipped me in the sample recently. But, Peter,
- 6:53Speaker 5: I'll take Norwood. We'll have a Cremorne 5AA listener lunch
- 6:57Speaker 5: on it.
- 6:58Speaker 2: Mark from Finden, good morning.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Good morning.
- 7:01Speaker 13: Good morning.
- 7:02Speaker 14: How are you?
- 7:03Speaker 4: You've come in with a head of steam, Marky boy.
- 7:05Speaker 6: Good morning.
- 7:07Speaker 1: Hey.
- 7:09Speaker 4: First up, congratulations, Ned, on the grand final, getting in
- 7:12Speaker 4: the grand final.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Ah, we haven't got to that yet. Well done, Neddy.
- 7:15Speaker 12: Thanks, Mark.
- 7:16Speaker 4: Well done, mate.
- 7:19Speaker 6: Check with me.
- 7:20Speaker 13: Your males will finish third or you'll finish 15th.
- 7:24Speaker 4: It doesn't matter, so you don't get no prize.
- 7:25Speaker 10: I just want to know, how's Lindy feeling this morning?
- 7:29Speaker 4: Oh, no.
- 7:30Speaker 15: From Kapunda.
- 7:31Speaker 2: Oh, no.
- 7:32Speaker 10: Hello, Lindy.
- 7:33Speaker 4: Oh, no, the Lindy fallout. I'm going past.
- 7:38Speaker 13: I should drop in and say hello to her, but
- 7:40Speaker 13: she might shoot me or something. No, it's all good.
- 7:47Speaker 13: Good luck for Saturday, mate. We're about to play in
- 7:49Speaker 13: the GF.
- 7:50Speaker 4: We're playing at Richmond Oval, home of the Westies.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Was it 2 o'clock?
- 7:55Speaker 4: Yeah, 2 or 2.30.
- 7:56Speaker 5: Yeah, come and have a look, Mark, and I'll say
- 7:59Speaker 5: g'day from the boundary line.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Appreciate those well wishes, mate.
- 8:02Speaker 1: All right, mate. Good luck.
- 8:03Speaker 4: Give us a honk on the way out, please.
- 8:08Speaker 2: On you, Mark. Well done.
- 8:09Speaker 4: Goodbye, Mark.
- 8:11Speaker 2: On top of the show, you said Mondays are a
- 8:13Speaker 2: bit slow, a bit Not up there? Well, they're not anymore.
- 8:16Speaker 2: I think we're up and about this morning.
- 8:17Speaker 4: No, definitely.
- 8:17Speaker 2: Before we get to the Crows, on the text line,
- 8:20Speaker 2: Mark in Parahills, Buggerstert, I'm an eagle, but it's where
- 8:23Speaker 2: I expected them after losing three players mid-season. Rowie Jr.
- 8:26Speaker 2: is a gun. Andrew, happy Monday, Sam and Ned, and
- 8:30Speaker 2: all the high-fivers out there at the SA Produce Market.
- 8:33Speaker 2: The banana economy this week is $ 2. 99 a kilo. Mick,
- 8:37Speaker 2: Rex and Dirk, well done to the Happy Valley Vikings, C-grade,
- 8:40Speaker 2: winning their... SFL Grand Final.
- 8:44Speaker 4: Southern Footy League.
- 8:44Speaker 2: Thank you. At McGain Stadium yesterday. Now for the A
- 8:48Speaker 2: grade on Saturday against Flagstaff Hill.
- 8:50Speaker 4: Hey, Mick has done something really cool there.
- 8:53Speaker 5: What we could do is a 5AA high-fiving early breakfast
- 8:58Speaker 5: kind of Love four different leagues. So we associate one
- 9:03Speaker 5: team with every league in the state. So in the
- 9:06Speaker 5: Southern Footy League, we are going for Happy Valley Vikings.
- 9:08Speaker 2: They're our team.
- 9:10Speaker 4: So you can text or call in.
- 9:11Speaker 2: Always been a Viking.
- 9:12Speaker 4: With your team that's in the grand final, and we'll
- 9:15Speaker 4: get right behind them.
- 9:16Speaker 2: We'll do it all week.
- 9:17Speaker 4: So I'm tipping Norwood for the sample. We'll kind of
- 9:19Speaker 4: wrap that sample up.
- 9:20Speaker 2: I'm with you, Norwood. I can't see Sturt winning.
- 9:22Speaker 5: Adelaide Footy League, we're behind Prince Alfred Old Scholars there
- 9:24Speaker 5: in the Div 2, aren't we?
- 9:25Speaker 4: Are we? Back up to Div 1, thank you. Thank
- 9:27Speaker 4: you very much for that.
- 9:29Speaker 5: Div 1, if anyone's got a team there, if anyone's
- 9:31Speaker 5: got a team out in the country or whoever you're supporting,
- 9:34Speaker 5: if your mob's made it to a grand final or
- 9:36Speaker 5: in the finals or whatever you're doing, we'll get behind
- 9:39Speaker 5: them this morning.
- 9:41Speaker 2: Saturday night?
- 9:42Speaker 4: Wow, yeah.
- 9:45Speaker 15: And the dream of a three-peat burns bright for Brisbane.
- 9:49Speaker 4: While the pros.
- 9:50Speaker 16: Succumb to successive semi-final submissions.
- 9:54Speaker 4: My jaw was on the ground.
- 9:56Speaker 2: In the first two minutes?
- 9:58Speaker 4: About six minutes in. I was watching it. I was speechless.
- 10:02Speaker 4: I couldn't believe what was happening.
- 10:04Speaker 5: I thought Brisbane would be red hot, but that was
- 10:06Speaker 5: a powerful performance by some of their athletes.
- 10:09Speaker 2: I think, again, obviously I'm a port man, so I
- 10:12Speaker 2: don't really have a dog in the fight. But as
- 10:15Speaker 2: a Crow supporter, you started off rough. But then you're
- 10:18Speaker 2: able to get back to 10 points.
- 10:20Speaker 17: I know, but.
- 10:22Speaker 4: You can't let a team start like that in a final.
- 10:25Speaker 6: No, you can't.
- 10:25Speaker 4: Notice I use the word athlete.
- 10:27Speaker 5: Bailey, his acceleration and change of speed is extraordinary.
- 10:31Speaker 4: Even Rayner.
- 10:33Speaker 5: I mean, Rayner doesn't have 25 disposals or 30 disposals consistently,
- 10:37Speaker 5: but his change of speed, his power, that break of
- 10:40Speaker 5: the tackle of Neil Bullen just set that game up.
- 10:43Speaker 5: It was extraordinary, the power of some of their athletes.
- 10:45Speaker 5: And it looked like men against boys, didn't it? In
- 10:49Speaker 5: the first, you know, 15 minutes.
- 10:51Speaker 1: Wow.
- 10:52Speaker 2: Well, there's a reason why they're running premiers and going
- 10:53Speaker 2: for a three.
- 10:54Speaker 5: Yeah, and their list is better than the Crows' list.
- 10:57Speaker 5: And we've said that on Early Breakfast a lot. We've
- 10:59Speaker 5: said that the Crows' list is not as good as
- 11:01Speaker 5: the best teams.
- 11:02Speaker 4: And that's reality.
- 11:03Speaker 2: But is it? Is the gap as big as what
- 11:05Speaker 2: it showed on Saturday night? Or was that more of
- 11:07Speaker 2: an aberration? You're right.
- 11:10Speaker 5: I think everyone was proud of the Crows for getting
- 11:12Speaker 5: back within 10 points and giving themselves a chance.
- 11:15Speaker 4: But Brisbane were far too good.
- 11:17Speaker 5: They were far too good. Their list is too good.
- 11:19Speaker 5: The gap isn't huge, but the gap is existent. And
- 11:22Speaker 5: the top four sides have much better lists than the Crows.
- 11:24Speaker 5: The Crows sit in that 4-8 bracket at the moment.
- 11:28Speaker 5: I mean, Matthew Nix gets crucified. The same people that
- 11:32Speaker 5: were standing on their own two feet applauding the bloke,
- 11:35Speaker 5: now the one's calling for his head.
- 11:37Speaker 4: He's done a good job.
- 11:39Speaker 2: With what he has.
- 11:39Speaker 4: It was really.
- 11:40Speaker 5: Disappointing that they didn't go through, but that's about where
- 11:42Speaker 5: the Crows are at. Anyone who thinks that the Crows
- 11:44Speaker 5: are the best side in the competition at the moment
- 11:46Speaker 5: are kidding themselves.
- 11:47Speaker 2: So listening to Will and Tommy and Rowey and Campo
- 11:50Speaker 2: on Saturday night, they're all talking about the conversation that
- 11:54Speaker 2: we need a better midfielder. We need a lot of things.
- 11:59Speaker 2: So does that come back down to list management then?
- 12:01Speaker 10: Well, no.
- 12:02Speaker 4: This is the other thing.
- 12:03Speaker 5: I mean, we can criticize where they're at, but you
- 12:06Speaker 5: can't just snap your fingers and make something happen.
- 12:10Speaker 2: So Hawthorne were in the same position. No, you can't
- 12:12Speaker 2: snap your fingers, but it's been a few years now
- 12:14Speaker 2: that the Crows have been building towards this. It's not
- 12:17Speaker 2: like Matty Nix came in last year.
- 12:19Speaker 5: No, but I'm also confident that the Crows are going slowly,
- 12:23Speaker 5: slowly and getting players that are within the demographic. So
- 12:26Speaker 5: when we do get to a point that we're in
- 12:29Speaker 5: the premiership window, red hot in that premiership window, we've
- 12:31Speaker 5: got sustainability in that space because, you know, you can
- 12:34Speaker 5: go and get a sugar hit and go get Neil
- 12:36Speaker 5: and a few others now, which I think we're probably
- 12:38Speaker 5: getting to the point we need a couple of experienced players, but...
- 12:41Speaker 5: You know, they're good for, what, one or two years?
- 12:43Speaker 5: We want to be a powerhouse for a long time.
- 12:45Speaker 2: Well, for those who were listening to post-match on Saturday night,
- 12:48Speaker 2: it was an interesting ride with everyone calling in. The fellas,
- 12:52Speaker 2: they went on, I think, for another 40-odd minutes than
- 12:54Speaker 2: they were supposed to because the calls just kept coming in.
- 12:57Speaker 2: But I want to ask you, favourite footy players back
- 13:00Speaker 2: in the day? Your favourite sporting idol?
- 13:04Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Because poor Tommy. He's not been able to get over
- 13:07Speaker 2: Rory Sloan.
- 13:08Speaker 6: Hello, Tommy.
- 13:09Speaker 13: Yeah, g'day.
- 13:11Speaker 18: I'll tell you where it's all gone wrong. We're looking
- 13:13Speaker 18: at tonight's result and we're upset.
- 13:15Speaker 16: Of course we are.
- 13:16Speaker 18: Of course we're upset. Where we went wrong. Rory Sloan retires.
- 13:21Speaker 18: We don't replace him in the midfield. And that's what
- 13:24Speaker 18: sickens me. There's no bull in the midfield. Ever since
- 13:28Speaker 18: Rory Sloan retired.
- 13:29Speaker 13: It's just been heartbreaking.
- 13:34Speaker 1: It's been sad.
- 13:35Speaker 5: Sorry.
- 13:35Speaker 4: And we need to replace a big.
- 13:37Speaker 18: Bull in the midfield.
- 13:38Speaker 13: We just can't do it. I just miss Rory.
- 13:41Speaker 6: Okay.
- 13:42Speaker 16: All right.
- 13:43Speaker 6: Well, when did Rory retire? That was a couple of
- 13:45Speaker 6: years ago.
- 13:46Speaker 4: Two years ago.
- 13:47Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 13:47Speaker 2: He didn't play his last season.
- 13:48Speaker 7: Tommy, I don't want to be disrespectful, but you need
- 13:50Speaker 7: to get over it, mate. He went out with button-up boots.
- 13:52Speaker 7: They weren't going to help us. And the big ball's
- 13:54Speaker 7: meant to be buried. But he turns the ball over.
- 13:57Speaker 13: We haven't replaced him.
- 13:58Speaker 6: Well, of course you haven't. You've got a couple of them.
- 14:02Speaker 6: He's hard to replace.
- 14:03Speaker 7: He was a captain and a bloody good player. Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy,
- 14:09Speaker 7: cheer up.
- 14:11Speaker 2: Okay, thanks, Rowey.
- 14:12Speaker 6: Tommy, cheer up. That's not why we lost, okay?
- 14:16Speaker 1: Jeez.
- 14:17Speaker 6: Give me a spell. Tommy, you've got the bloody Kleenex out.
- 14:21Speaker 6: It's a tough time for everyone, though. He's got the... Tommy,
- 14:29Speaker 6: if we could jump through.
- 14:30Speaker 7: The radio and hug you up, mate, I would, but
- 14:32Speaker 7: Rory ain't helping us.
- 14:33Speaker 6: It's an emotional game. It's an emotional game. Rory ain't
- 14:35Speaker 6: helping us.
- 14:36Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah.
- 14:36Speaker 6: Come on, Tommy. You're better than that.
- 14:43Speaker 2: A bit of Rory Sloan. So, if anyone... 8-double-2-3-double-0-double-0. Sporting heroes,
- 14:52Speaker 2: sporting idols that you might not be able to get over.
- 14:54Speaker 4: We shouldn't.
- 14:56Speaker 2: I mean, as a port man, I'm still missing Travis Boak.
- 14:59Speaker 2: I don't think I'm crying over it, but I still
- 15:02Speaker 2: miss Boaky.
- 15:03Speaker 4: I feel for Tom. We all miss Sloany, but wow,
- 15:06Speaker 4: that was amazing. Okay.
- 15:08Speaker 2: Peter in Parra Hills, good morning.
- 15:10Speaker 4: Hello, Peter.
- 15:11Speaker 13: Yeah, good morning.
- 15:12Speaker 10: I've just turned off the radio. Now, as a poor supporter,
- 15:15Speaker 10: I was so happy to listen to all the phone
- 15:18Speaker 10: calls that day, but what I was a bit disgusted was, now,
- 15:25Speaker 10: Rowey puts his heart on his sleeve, but the swearing
- 15:29Speaker 10: that he did pre-post and then allowing all the swearing
- 15:34Speaker 10: to go on Afterwards, I didn't think that was good radio.
- 15:38Speaker 4: Did he, what, F-bombs or S-bombs or C-bombs?
- 15:40Speaker 6: No, not F-bombs.
- 15:41Speaker 2: He was dropping the S-bomb a couple of times.
- 15:42Speaker 4: Oh, the S-bomb, Peter, come on.
- 15:44Speaker 2: It was late at night.
- 15:46Speaker 10: Yeah, all right, but if I use those words during
- 15:49Speaker 10: your show, it cuts me off.
- 15:50Speaker 2: Different time of day, Peter.
- 15:52Speaker 6: No, you can say it.
- 15:52Speaker 4: If you want.
- 15:53Speaker 3: Say it.
- 15:54Speaker 10: No, no, because I don't like my standards to go there,
- 15:56Speaker 10: and I do use a few words. No, I was
- 15:59Speaker 10: just unhappy with that, and that's the way it goes.
- 16:03Speaker 10: But Tracy for North Haven, well, bad luck. When you
- 16:07Speaker 10: set your standards up high, when it comes down, that's
- 16:10Speaker 10: how bad it is. But I was happy. You've got
- 16:13Speaker 10: Charlie from Angerson phoning up Saturday to the boys saying, oh,
- 16:19Speaker 10: how good was I because I picked the Crows against
- 16:21Speaker 10: Western Bulldogs. Well, Charlie, this weekend, I backed... Fremantle to
- 16:27Speaker 10: win by over 12 points, 1 by 14. And I've
- 16:32Speaker 10: got the Brisbane, 29 plus. Made a profit of $ 24
- 16:39Speaker 10: for the double. Profit for every $ 10.
- 16:42Speaker 4: Thank you, Peter.
- 16:43Speaker 2: Well done, Peter.
- 16:45Speaker 4: He's right. That was shit the way they did that.
- 16:47Speaker 2: 21 after 5.
- 16:51Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto. 5AA Early Breakfast.
- 16:54Speaker 3: 24 After 5 on this Monday morning has head back
- 17:02Speaker 3: to the phones and to a fan favourite, Nettie.
- 17:05Speaker 2: Yeah, he is.
- 17:05Speaker 7: Yep.
- 17:05Speaker 4: Hello, Arthur from Mount Barker.
- 17:08Speaker 13: Hello, boys. Yes. I'm about, well, I was awake anyway. No,
- 17:13Speaker 13: I have to agree with Peter. No, that's not called
- 17:16Speaker 13: for bad language and that.
- 17:18Speaker 4: No, it wasn't.
- 17:20Speaker 13: I didn't actually hear, but if Peter said that, he
- 17:24Speaker 13: wouldn't say that if it wasn't true. Well, I class
- 17:26Speaker 13: football finals a bit like a balloon. You float along,
- 17:31Speaker 13: maybe only dealing with big boys or young men. Because,
- 17:36Speaker 13: you know, you all hype up Thursday night and all that.
- 17:39Speaker 13: You can deflate very quickly if things go wrong early.
- 17:42Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good analogy, Arthur.
- 17:46Speaker 13: Yeah, particularly grand final. But as you get further into
- 17:49Speaker 13: the finals there, and, of course, with the Crows, a
- 17:53Speaker 13: person getting five goals in five minutes there, that'd be
- 17:58Speaker 13: a good start for sure. And also, I think we've
- 18:02Speaker 13: got some Torrens, like on Torrens, Eagles yesterday. They're over-sessing
- 18:07Speaker 13: the ball.
- 18:08Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 18:10Speaker 13: But that grade, like you say, I think we have
- 18:14Speaker 13: devalued a little bit at the Sandville level. But they're
- 18:17Speaker 13: not good enough to play that type of game. They've
- 18:20Speaker 13: got to, you know, you can handball a little bit.
- 18:22Speaker 13: You can't go on and on trying to break lines
- 18:25Speaker 13: because they're not good enough. They fumble and the handball's
- 18:28Speaker 13: a man that's under pressure anyway. Thank you, Arthur. I
- 18:34Speaker 13: think when good sides pressure you too, it forces you
- 18:36Speaker 13: into over-possessing the ball and handballing too much. Arthur, good point.
- 18:39Speaker 13: Johnny from Port Augusta, good morning.
- 19:02Speaker 19: Good morning, boys.
- 19:03Speaker 1: How are you, John? Very happy man here.
- 19:05Speaker 13: Very happy man. And I'm not going to be sporting.
- 19:08Speaker 13: Lindy of Gawler of Kapunda. Cheerio. That's all I'm saying, Matt.
- 19:17Speaker 4: And Brad and Wondery Hill.
- 19:19Speaker 19: They're our first supported IZMGs.
- 19:23Speaker 6: That's all I'm saying, Matt.
- 19:24Speaker 13: And my sporting hero.
- 19:27Speaker 2: Yes.
- 19:27Speaker 9: My sporting hero.
- 19:29Speaker 11: Is the late, great, I did not see him play.
- 19:34Speaker 17: World War II hero, Bobby Quinn, the Portadelo legend.
- 19:37Speaker 9: Wow.
- 19:38Speaker 12: He was a family friend of my grandfather's.
- 19:41Speaker 18: He's got the Bobby Quinn medal named after him on
- 19:43Speaker 18: Anzac Day.
- 19:44Speaker 8: Look him up.
- 19:45Speaker 13: He's a legend.
- 19:45Speaker 4: That's very special, John.
- 19:47Speaker 2: Well done, Johnny.
- 19:48Speaker 4: Very, very special. Well done. Good record.
- 19:50Speaker 12: For him.
- 19:50Speaker 2: And then let's not turn early breakfast into a field
- 19:53Speaker 2: where we're potting other listeners, please.
- 19:55Speaker 5: No, that's what I was going to say. Poor Lindy
- 19:56Speaker 5: from Kapunda. I mean, she is just getting smashed left,
- 19:59Speaker 5: right and centre. Lindy, if you're listening, please have the
- 20:02Speaker 5: right of reply. We'd love to hear from you. If
- 20:04Speaker 5: anyone knows of Lindy's whereabouts, if she's up, then just
- 20:07Speaker 5: send her a text and say, hey, you're getting absolutely
- 20:09Speaker 5: slammed on early breakfast at the moment.
- 20:11Speaker 4: Call in and have your say. Julie from Blakeview, hello.
- 20:14Speaker 11: Good morning, boys. Yes, it was a lovely weekend.
- 20:17Speaker 4: Oh, you poor supporting.
- 20:19Speaker 5: Seriously, you're all happy with the demise of the Adelaide Crows?
- 20:23Speaker 4: It's just sad, Julie.
- 20:25Speaker 11: Nothing sad about it. I spoke with Ken Cagey and
- 20:30Speaker 11: Fabers yesterday, and I said I've been there, experienced all that.
- 20:34Speaker 11: I'm not going to gloat, but of course I'm happy.
- 20:40Speaker 11: My absolute sporting hero recent times, I agree, was with Sam,
- 20:45Speaker 11: Travis Spokes, and he makes me absolutely proud that he
- 20:50Speaker 11: played for my club. He's loyal, not like one that
- 20:54Speaker 11: has to go back to Victoria, and it makes me
- 20:58Speaker 11: appreciate him, Ollie Wines, and Robbie Gray even more. So
- 21:04Speaker 11: they've stayed loyal to the club that looked after them.
- 21:07Speaker 11: And also I mentioned to KG and Tuggers yesterday, watching
- 21:13Speaker 11: that Frio game, You've got a guy playing in your team,
- 21:17Speaker 11: or for your ex-club, Ned, that could absolutely smash a
- 21:23Speaker 11: pack and bring the ball to ground so that all
- 21:26Speaker 11: your little fellas could grab the ball, and he did nothing.
- 21:30Speaker 4: Who are you speaking of? Phil Thorpe?
- 21:33Speaker 11: Phil Thorpe. Yeah, he's just so... He just runs around
- 21:37Speaker 11: looking like he's not interested. Ned, you only had to
- 21:41Speaker 11: watch that game. The size of that guy... He's so intimidating.
- 21:44Speaker 11: And you look at what Jackson did for Freo. He
- 21:49Speaker 11: was just outstanding.
- 21:51Speaker 5: I think, Julie, I actually must admit, I think you
- 21:54Speaker 5: raise a valid point there. I don't think he's had
- 21:57Speaker 5: the presence this year that he perhaps had last year.
- 21:59Speaker 5: I think there might be some injury stuff going on too.
- 22:01Speaker 2: Weight of expectation too, maybe?
- 22:03Speaker 4: Yeah, a little bit, maybe.
- 22:05Speaker 5: He's still a young fella. Talls take time, but he
- 22:07Speaker 5: was an Australian last year. I think the Crows would
- 22:09Speaker 5: have liked perhaps a little bit more output and a
- 22:12Speaker 5: little bit more presence from him this year, Julie, if
- 22:13Speaker 5: we're being totally honest.
- 22:15Speaker 4: I think that assessment was quite fair.
- 22:17Speaker 2: Rosemary, good morning.
- 22:19Speaker 14: Good morning, guys. Listen to you every morning.
- 22:21Speaker 2: Thank you, Rosemary.
- 22:22Speaker 19: Thanks, Rosemary.
- 22:23Speaker 2: You high-fiver.
- 22:23Speaker 4: You're my favourite herb.
- 22:25Speaker 14: Oh, look, wake up when you come on straight away.
- 22:29Speaker 14: But what's annoyed me this morning, and it's got me
- 22:33Speaker 14: out of bed to get up, all these port supporters,
- 22:36Speaker 14: and sorry, Sam.
- 22:38Speaker 2: That's all right. I know.
- 22:40Speaker 14: All these port supporters that forget where their team came,
- 22:44Speaker 14: and injury... No, they've had the talent, but just haven't
- 22:48Speaker 14: used it properly. Now, with Lindy and John, I'm disgusted
- 22:56Speaker 14: with you. You gave away AFL right through the season
- 23:01Speaker 14: when your team were down. You are a fair-weather supporter,
- 23:05Speaker 14: and I'm disgusted the way you pick on Lindy.
- 23:09Speaker 13: She is such a.
- 23:13Speaker 14: A Crows fan, and she puts her whole heart and
- 23:16Speaker 14: soul into it, not like you, John, that get up
- 23:20Speaker 14: and come and bash all the people that support their team,
- 23:24Speaker 14: not like you. All you go to is Johnny Howard
- 23:27Speaker 14: and all things like this. Back in history, no. John,
- 23:32Speaker 14: get off the radio or talk sensibly about things. And
- 23:38Speaker 14: just one point.
- 23:39Speaker 4: Yes.
- 23:40Speaker 14: I'm Michael Annie. I am so disappointed that the AFL
- 23:45Speaker 14: have allowed that.
- 23:47Speaker 4: The one-match suspension?
- 23:48Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 23:49Speaker 14: If you watched Sookie Baby.
- 23:52Speaker 11: Cameron.
- 23:54Speaker 14: Charlie, yes, who we let go because he wanted to
- 23:59Speaker 14: go home to mummy and his family. And then at
- 24:02Speaker 14: the end, it wasn't mummy and his family he wanted
- 24:04Speaker 14: to go to. It was Brisbane. And the way he played,
- 24:10Speaker 14: and the umpires allowed it, He was using his body
- 24:15Speaker 14: to force the players all the way along, basically like blocking.
- 24:20Speaker 14: And I am just so disgusted that they have cited
- 24:25Speaker 14: Michael Lanny over that.
- 24:26Speaker 10: Hmm.
- 24:26Speaker 4: Okay, Rosemary, thanks for that call. It's nice to have
- 24:29Speaker 4: a bit of Crows.
- 24:30Speaker 5: Representation on the line and some healthy combat on the
- 24:34Speaker 5: talk line is fine.
- 24:35Speaker 6: It's okay.
- 24:35Speaker 2: This is the most fiery I think early breakfast has been.
- 24:38Speaker 5: Well, let's be honest. The Port Adelaide supporters have been cheeky.
- 24:42Speaker 5: But at the end of the day, the Adelaide Crows
- 24:44Speaker 5: have got sustained finals appearances for the next four to
- 24:47Speaker 5: five years.
- 24:48Speaker 4: Port Adelaide will get worse before they get better. There
- 24:50Speaker 4: you go. You finish 15th.
- 24:52Speaker 5: I can't say you're finishing anything better than that next year.
- 24:54Speaker 2: Port Adelaide are closer to a premiership than the Crows.
- 24:56Speaker 5: That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
- 25:01Speaker 4: You don't truly believe that. You do not truly.
- 25:04Speaker 2: I know you don't.
- 25:04Speaker 4: Look at you laughing.
- 25:06Speaker 2: Charlie Cameron, though.
- 25:07Speaker 4: No, no, no. That is the dumbest thing that you
- 25:10Speaker 4: have ever said.
- 25:11Speaker 2: Oh, if it turns out to be true, we'll go
- 25:12Speaker 2: to the tape. Charlie Cameron, though. So we traveled to
- 25:17Speaker 2: the Gabba a few years back for the semifinal of
- 25:20Speaker 2: Port and Brisbane. Last night, it gave me flashbacks to
- 25:26Speaker 2: that match because all we kept hearing, and Tim Geneva
- 25:28Speaker 2: that night a few years ago, was losing his mind
- 25:32Speaker 2: over Country Road. I think it got to the point
- 25:34Speaker 2: where he kicked another goal. He was like, here comes
- 25:36Speaker 2: the song again. Charlie Cameron, five goals, three Saturday night.
- 25:39Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 25:39Speaker 2: Incredible.
- 25:40Speaker 4: He was electric.
- 25:41Speaker 5: Hey, I'm just kind of moving slightly away from footy,
- 25:43Speaker 5: but in some sense it's still relevant.
- 25:45Speaker 2: Yes, we need people's help here.
- 25:46Speaker 4: Yeah, I actually need some early breakfast help.
- 25:50Speaker 5: As a part of our footy game, we played on
- 25:54Speaker 5: Norwood Oval, which is a fantastic oval.
- 25:56Speaker 2: And you won.
- 25:56Speaker 4: It was a preliminary final. We won.
- 25:57Speaker 2: You got the W.
- 25:58Speaker 4: Thank you. And the grass.
- 26:00Speaker 5: Was quite short at springtime, and I had a bit
- 26:03Speaker 5: of an incident towards the boundary line where I've scraped–
- 26:06Speaker 5: A large portion of skin off my leg.
- 26:08Speaker 4: You've seen it.
- 26:09Speaker 2: That is, it's a massive, what are they called?
- 26:12Speaker 4: It's like a grass burn or, is that what it is?
- 26:15Speaker 2: Picture someone falling off their bike on an asphalt road.
- 26:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 26:18Speaker 2: It's just, you've sanded off all the skin on your thigh.
- 26:21Speaker 4: So for the listeners.
- 26:22Speaker 2: It's massive.
- 26:23Speaker 5: How big do you think the kind of surface area
- 26:26Speaker 5: of where my skin's been taken off is?
- 26:28Speaker 4: What would you say? You're doing it with your hands.
- 26:30Speaker 4: No one can see that.
- 26:31Speaker 2: Yeah, but you can translate that. What's that?
- 26:32Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 26:33Speaker 4: Is that perhaps?
- 26:34Speaker 2: The size of a whopper.
- 26:37Speaker 4: It's okay, Hungry Jack.
- 26:38Speaker 2: Or a Big Mac. No, a Big Mac is a
- 26:40Speaker 2: bit smaller, the size of a Whopper.
- 26:41Speaker 4: A Big Whopper. It's quite large.
- 26:43Speaker 2: It's Red Raw.
- 26:44Speaker 4: It's Red Raw.
- 26:45Speaker 5: So, team, if anyone has any fantastic little remedies, some
- 26:50Speaker 5: homemade remedies to help with a gravel rashy kind of
- 26:53Speaker 5: grass burny skin right off Red Raw saw, that'd be great.
- 26:57Speaker 5: I've done a little bit of research, but I thought
- 27:00Speaker 5: our high fivers might be able to help. Like a
- 27:02Speaker 5: Manuka honey type operation, would that kind of help?
- 27:05Speaker 4: I've heard that really makes a difference.
- 27:07Speaker 2: What have you done so far for it?
- 27:09Speaker 13: Nothing.
- 27:10Speaker 4: Nothing at all.
- 27:11Speaker 2: And look at it.
- 27:12Speaker 4: It's red raw.
- 27:13Speaker 2: It's sore.
- 27:13Speaker 4: I can barely sleep. It's actually a serious con. All
- 27:16Speaker 4: the skin's off.
- 27:16Speaker 2: You've cleaned it, though, so it's not going to get infected. Yeah.
- 27:19Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 27:20Speaker 4: Yeah. No, it's good. I need some help. Early breakfast.
- 27:24Speaker 2: High fivers.
- 27:26Speaker 4: What would you put on a really quite a sore,
- 27:29Speaker 4: you know?
- 27:29Speaker 2: Mandy's come at you quick and fast.
- 27:31Speaker 4: What is that, Mandy?
- 27:32Speaker 2: Pseudo cream.
- 27:33Speaker 4: Pseudo cream, what's that? Never heard of it. Is that
- 27:36Speaker 4: a cream? It sounds like a cream.
- 27:38Speaker 2: Well, it has cream in the title.
- 27:40Speaker 4: Well, it sounds cream. Oh, okay.
- 27:42Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen that.
- 27:43Speaker 4: It's for nappy rash.
- 27:44Speaker 2: Okay.
- 27:45Speaker 5: I like that, Mandy. Wouldn't that be good to be
- 27:48Speaker 5: a baby and just have a nappy and just be.
- 27:50Speaker 4: Able to wee and poo wherever you like?
- 27:51Speaker 18: Not at all.
- 27:52Speaker 4: It'd be handy in the shopping centres.
- 27:53Speaker 2: With the lines along. No, no.
- 27:54Speaker 10: No?
- 27:55Speaker 9: No good?
- 27:56Speaker 4: What would you put on that, folks? A manuka honey
- 27:58Speaker 4: or some concoction?
- 27:58Speaker 5: 8223 0000, your home remedies for a red raw skin incident.
- 28:04Speaker 2: Jump on the phones. Tommy Wren coming up shortly. Crows fans,
- 28:07Speaker 2: we will talk about Saturday night a little bit more
- 28:09Speaker 2: in depth, but bear with us.
- 28:13Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto, 5AA Early Breakfast.
- 28:25Speaker 2: 21-6 on this Monday morning. High-fivers, we are asking you.
- 28:31Speaker 2: How does Ned fix his massive gravel rush that he
- 28:34Speaker 2: sustained during the preliminary final for PA, what is it, PAOC?
- 28:40Speaker 4: Yeah, Prince Alfred Old Scholars, into the grand final.
- 28:43Speaker 2: Interesting with the granny. Knocked over the goody saints.
- 28:45Speaker 5: Now, Sam said it was the size of a whopper.
- 28:47Speaker 5: I think it was the size of a whopper and chips.
- 28:49Speaker 5: It's a big kind of red, raw, grass-burny, gravel-rashy type thing,
- 28:54Speaker 5: and I need.
- 28:54Speaker 6: A home remedy.
- 28:55Speaker 2: Did it impact your sleep?
- 28:57Speaker 4: No, honestly, yes.
- 28:59Speaker 5: Because, now, this is disgusting, but I'll give you some
- 29:02Speaker 5: context of what's going on. Like, the pus and everything is, like,
- 29:05Speaker 5: coming onto my undies, and it's getting hard, and, like,
- 29:08Speaker 5: it sticks to the sheets and everything.
- 29:10Speaker 4: I don't know what to do.
- 29:11Speaker 9: All right.
- 29:11Speaker 2: Phil in Modbury North. Help us, Phil.
- 29:13Speaker 4: Good morning.
- 29:15Speaker 13: Mate, Thursday plantation.
- 29:18Speaker 10: Tea Tree Ointment and Monica Honey Ointment.
- 29:20Speaker 4: I'm writing this down. So Tea Tree Honey. Sorry, no,
- 29:23Speaker 4: Tea Tree Ointment. Tea Tree Ointment and Monica Honey from
- 29:27Speaker 4: Thursday Plantation. Oh, goodness.
- 29:29Speaker 17: Okay.
- 29:30Speaker 4: You don't own those companies and you're just doing advertising, Phil.
- 29:33Speaker 1: No, mate.
- 29:33Speaker 4: Been using it for years.
- 29:34Speaker 19: Been very good.
- 29:35Speaker 4: Now, that's exactly what I wanted. I'm going to go
- 29:37Speaker 4: away and do that, Phil. That's a great recommendation.
- 29:39Speaker 6: Thank you.
- 29:40Speaker 14: You.
- 29:40Speaker 13: Get it at your local chemist. Little tube. It'll heal
- 29:43Speaker 13: it up.
- 29:43Speaker 8: It's very good.
- 29:44Speaker 4: Hey, Phil, did you have a good weekend?
- 29:46Speaker 12: Yeah, great weekend, mate. Just come back from Port Lincoln.
- 29:48Speaker 6: What?
- 29:49Speaker 10: Oh, no.
- 29:50Speaker 4: Phil, what were you doing over there? It's the greatest
- 29:52Speaker 4: place on earth.
- 29:53Speaker 1: Yeah, mate.
- 29:53Speaker 10: It's my hometown, so I'll be... I'll be moving back
- 29:56Speaker 10: there in six months, and yeah.
- 29:58Speaker 4: Oh, Phil, we should have a frothy. What's your pub
- 30:00Speaker 4: of choice there at Lincoln?
- 30:02Speaker 18: Mate, probably the Marina.
- 30:03Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, nice.
- 30:05Speaker 6: That's about 200.
- 30:05Speaker 4: Metres away from my boat. I go there all the time, too.
- 30:09Speaker 10: Yeah, mate, I know plenty of people that know you
- 30:11Speaker 10: at the Wayback Footy Club.
- 30:13Speaker 1: Oh, the Waybackers.
- 30:14Speaker 2: Oh, he's a big name in Port Lincoln, our little netty.
- 30:16Speaker 12: Big name.
- 30:16Speaker 4: You've got Kaser and Kempe and those guys. Phil, do
- 30:19Speaker 4: you know them?
- 30:19Speaker 13: Kempe, know those boys, yeah. Go out with them.
- 30:21Speaker 4: Oh, that's unreal, Phil.
- 30:23Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 30:23Speaker 2: Oh, cool, mate.
- 30:24Speaker 4: You're part of the world, mate. Well, I'll see you
- 30:25Speaker 4: over there at Lincoln. That's great.
- 30:26Speaker 13: Yeah, hopefully you'll see me over there for a beer,
- 30:29Speaker 13: maybe at the footy club one day, mate.
- 30:30Speaker 4: Love it. Can't wait, Phil. Thank you for that, and
- 30:32Speaker 4: thanks for the recommendation.
- 30:32Speaker 2: I can guarantee you that would probably happen, though. So, Phil,
- 30:35Speaker 2: careful what you wish for. Linda in Hallett Cove, good morning.
- 30:38Speaker 9: Good morning.
- 30:40Speaker 3: Good morning, boys.
- 30:40Speaker 16: Good.
- 30:41Speaker 2: Linda, how are you?
- 30:43Speaker 12: I'm getting there.
- 30:44Speaker 4: Getting better, Linda?
- 30:46Speaker 12: Yeah, thank you to the lovely lady that wished me
- 30:48Speaker 12: well when I came off the mobility scooter. But the
- 30:51Speaker 12: strange thing was, I got a gravel rash on the
- 30:55Speaker 12: top of my hand. It was really small. And when
- 30:59Speaker 12: the doctor saw me, he said, oh, you've got to
- 31:00Speaker 12: have a tetanus. But I was actually covered from before.
- 31:05Speaker 11: So he really needs.
- 31:08Speaker 12: To go and see someone and stop messing around. And
- 31:12Speaker 12: the other thing in the meantime, you can get a
- 31:14Speaker 12: cream called 2-S-O-O-V-E. And one of them's got a bit
- 31:22Speaker 12: of an anesthetic in it, so it takes the pain away.
- 31:25Speaker 12: Or I'm thinking, well, the hemorrhoid cream, but it's got
- 31:31Speaker 12: an anesthetic in it, so it takes the pain away.
- 31:34Speaker 12: But you should go and get it checked if you
- 31:35Speaker 12: need to.
- 31:38Speaker 2: Thank you, Linda.
- 31:38Speaker 4: And we're so pleased to hear that you're on the mend, Linda, too.
- 31:42Speaker 2: Get it checked out, Linda basically says.
- 31:44Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I'll do that. A tetanus shot. Okay, I
- 31:46Speaker 4: don't think I've ever had one of those in my life.
- 31:47Speaker 2: Oh, you definitely would have.
- 31:48Speaker 4: I wouldn't have.
- 31:49Speaker 2: You would have as a kid.
- 31:50Speaker 4: I'm an anti-vaxxer.
- 31:51Speaker 2: No, you're not. Ned, there are things we can joke about.
- 31:54Speaker 2: You don't want that.
- 31:55Speaker 4: Oh, okay, sorry. What, I'm not allowed to have a
- 31:56Speaker 4: bit of fun on this program?
- 31:57Speaker 8: You are.
- 31:58Speaker 2: We've had fun all morning.
- 31:59Speaker 4: Franklin Birkenhead, save us.
- 32:01Speaker 8: Hey, mate, Ned, you can't go wrong with the Panson.
- 32:06Speaker 8: I used to have it when I had tats. I
- 32:10Speaker 8: had my tats done. You can't go wrong with that, mate.
- 32:13Speaker 8: It's for abrasions, cuts, and burns, mate. They use it
- 32:17Speaker 8: all the time, or he used to use it all
- 32:19Speaker 8: the time when he was doing tats, mate. That's from
- 32:21Speaker 8: my experience.
- 32:23Speaker 4: Okay, so can you just say what it is again
- 32:25Speaker 4: so I can spell it out, Frank?
- 32:26Speaker 19: Okay, but Panson, it's spelled B-E-P-A-N for Nelly.
- 32:31Speaker 9: Yep.
- 32:36Speaker 19: B-H-E-N, and it is good for cuts, abrasions, and burns.
- 32:42Speaker 19: And also, buddy, it has an antiseptic in it too.
- 32:47Speaker 4: That's great, Frank.
- 32:48Speaker 8: Thanks.
- 32:48Speaker 4: You wouldn't want to get that word in a spelling competition.
- 32:50Speaker 4: My God, that's stumping.
- 32:51Speaker 2: Well done, Frank. One more before Rennie, Gary, and Collinswood.
- 32:54Speaker 2: Good morning.
- 32:55Speaker 13: Good morning, guys. Yeah, look, what people have said is good,
- 32:59Speaker 13: but the best one I've had is the old salt
- 33:02Speaker 13: water down the beach.
- 33:03Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 33:04Speaker 13: You can put the leaves in there for an hour
- 33:05Speaker 13: or so. for a few days and that clears.
- 33:08Speaker 9: It up like anything.
- 33:09Speaker 13: There's no nasty chemicals or nothing and I've always done
- 33:14Speaker 13: good with that. Just when I think on the football, yeah,
- 33:18Speaker 13: you summed it up pretty well. Look, I felt sorry
- 33:20Speaker 13: for supporters that went up there.
- 33:22Speaker 17: Paid the hard-earned money or drove up there and as
- 33:25Speaker 17: we know, after six minutes, the game was all over.
- 33:29Speaker 17: But like I said to the guys yesterday, there's players
- 33:32Speaker 17: there that have got to go. They've got to get
- 33:35Speaker 17: rid of at.
- 33:35Speaker 9: Least five players.
- 33:38Speaker 13: I don't know if Nick's the guy to take.
- 33:40Speaker 1: Them to a grand final.
- 33:41Speaker 13: He's not a bad coach, but I don't know if
- 33:44Speaker 13: he's there. The other thing, my glaring example was nine
- 33:47Speaker 13: or ten goals that Brisbane got in their forward line
- 33:52Speaker 13: were gimmies. And why I say that is the Crows
- 33:55Speaker 13: defenders were five to ten metres away from them when
- 33:58Speaker 13: they marked it and kicked the goals. There was at
- 34:01Speaker 13: least nine to ten of those. And the other thing,
- 34:05Speaker 13: they were.
- 34:07Speaker 13: Going for the ball against one of the Brisbane guys,
- 34:09Speaker 13: the guys were pulling out. So, yeah.
- 34:12Speaker 2: Good on you, Gary.
- 34:13Speaker 4: Thanks for a few recommendations.
- 34:14Speaker 5: That's actually a good talker with our high-fivers. The saltwater thing. Now,
- 34:19Speaker 5: I was always a believer of that, and I'm taking
- 34:21Speaker 5: on that advice because it's a good piece of advice, Gary.
- 34:24Speaker 5: But some people say that the bacteria in the ocean
- 34:27Speaker 5: actually provides more danger than benefit.
- 34:31Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 34:32Speaker 2: I mean, the amount of times I get told if
- 34:33Speaker 2: you've got a mouth sore or something, you do a
- 34:35Speaker 2: saltwater gargle. Yeah.
- 34:37Speaker 4: But that's more control.
- 34:38Speaker 1: Correct.
- 34:39Speaker 2: Maybe get some Epsom salts or a salt bath at home.
- 34:42Speaker 5: Yeah, because I've always been of that opinion, Gary. I
- 34:44Speaker 5: was like, just get in the saltwater. It'll fix anything.
- 34:46Speaker 5: But then some people say that the bacteria in the
- 34:48Speaker 5: ocean presents a bit of an infection risk. Maybe with
- 34:52Speaker 5: the algal bloom, you turn into a three-headed octopus or something.
- 34:55Speaker 1: The latest in sports with Tom Rand.
- 34:59Speaker 15: And the dream of a three-peat burns bright for Brisbane
- 35:03Speaker 15: while the pros succumb to successive semi-final submissions.
- 35:07Speaker 2: Morning, Tommy.
- 35:08Speaker 1: Morning, boys.
- 35:09Speaker 16: Yeah, it was a meek and mild effort, wasn't it,
- 35:11Speaker 16: on Saturday night from Adelaide and those questions we thought,
- 35:14Speaker 16: you know, had been put to bed about Adelaide and
- 35:17Speaker 16: taking a step forward and the coach and having full faith.
- 35:20Speaker 16: They rear their ugly head again. And unfortunately for Matthew Nixon,
- 35:24Speaker 16: the footy club, they've come under intense scrutiny once more. Now,
- 35:27Speaker 16: the club has come out yesterday and backed him in
- 35:30Speaker 16: and said he will be there in 2028. Boy, it
- 35:33Speaker 16: was a momentous loss, wasn't it, on the weekend, Ned?
- 35:35Speaker 16: It was a really, really bad one for the footy club.
- 35:38Speaker 4: They just didn't give themselves a chance with that start,
- 35:40Speaker 4: did they?
- 35:40Speaker 8: No.
- 35:41Speaker 5: I mean, Sam summed it up beautifully. They got back
- 35:43Speaker 5: to within 10 points. I think they can hold their
- 35:46Speaker 5: head high after kind of quarter time, but despite that,
- 35:49Speaker 5: you're still disappointed as a Crows fan, aren't you, with
- 35:51Speaker 5: that result?
- 35:51Speaker 4: I think so.
- 35:52Speaker 16: You know, I think the quickest ever five goals in
- 35:54Speaker 16: a final, 433 seconds for five goals, and it was over.
- 35:59Speaker 16: And the Crows did well, like you said, to get
- 36:00Speaker 16: it back to 10 points, but After that, it was
- 36:03Speaker 16: one-way traffic and it sort of laid bare the difference
- 36:06Speaker 16: between brisbane where they're.
- 36:09Speaker 4: At and where the crows need to get to.
- 36:11Speaker 5: And you summed that up perfectly just then i i
- 36:14Speaker 5: didn't think the crows would win i tip i thought
- 36:16Speaker 5: brisbane would win but what it did is illustrate how
- 36:19Speaker 5: much power brisbane have in that list just athletes and
- 36:23Speaker 5: power they break tackles they've got change of speed whereas
- 36:26Speaker 5: the crows looked a little it was like i said
- 36:28Speaker 5: it was like boys against men and that's what it
- 36:30Speaker 5: looked like in that first 15 minutes.
- 36:31Speaker 16: Yep and i think people at their listing would probably
- 36:35Speaker 16: agree with this and and i maybe relate it back
- 36:37Speaker 16: to something like when you're trying to lose weight and
- 36:40Speaker 16: say you're 20 kilos overweight losing the first 10 kilos
- 36:43Speaker 16: is the easiest yeah it's just you know perhaps changing
- 36:45Speaker 16: the diet walking three times a week it's the last
- 36:48Speaker 16: couple of kilos and it's like in sport it's the
- 36:51Speaker 16: last little bit that's always the hardest yeah and taking
- 36:54Speaker 16: that step from being a top six side or a
- 36:57Speaker 16: top eight side to a top two contender that's the
- 37:00Speaker 16: sharpest step because it's it's not supposed to be easy
- 37:03Speaker 16: yeah and the crows at the moment are it feels
- 37:05Speaker 16: like they're at the base camp at Mount Everest all
- 37:07Speaker 16: over again.
- 37:08Speaker 4: They're a fair way off those very best. And pressure
- 37:10Speaker 4: is a privilege.
- 37:11Speaker 5: They're at the pointy end of the ladder now and
- 37:13Speaker 5: pressure will come and expectation will come. So they've just
- 37:15Speaker 5: got to embrace it. They've got to get better. They
- 37:17Speaker 5: need better players on their list, you know, at that
- 37:19Speaker 5: top end. Rennie, there's been some talk about the tactical
- 37:23Speaker 5: decisions from Matthew Nix and the Adelaide Crows coaching team.
- 37:25Speaker 4: They sent Jordan Dawson behind the ball.
- 37:27Speaker 5: I just want to provide some context to our listeners
- 37:29Speaker 5: as to why sometimes Nixie does that. It might not
- 37:32Speaker 5: necessarily be a conservative move to try and slow the
- 37:35Speaker 5: play down and get one behind the ball. It's actually
- 37:37Speaker 5: sometimes an offensive injection into the game. So if you've
- 37:41Speaker 5: got seven defenders around six forwards, you've obviously got a
- 37:43Speaker 5: plus one, so they might have felt that they could
- 37:45Speaker 5: use that plus one and own the ball a little
- 37:47Speaker 5: bit more on Brisbane and actually generate some offense through it.
- 37:51Speaker 5: So I just, yeah, there's just been some talk around, oh, well,
- 37:53Speaker 5: they went into their shell 40 points down in a final.
- 37:55Speaker 5: And I can totally understand that observation. I'm just saying
- 37:59Speaker 5: it might not have been a defensive decision. It might
- 38:01Speaker 5: have been get plus one behind the ball. Let's use
- 38:04Speaker 5: that number and try and throw something.
- 38:05Speaker 4: A little different at Brisbane. It's a great point.
- 38:08Speaker 16: And then they've got some issues too, Adelaide, with their
- 38:10Speaker 16: list in terms of what do they do now with
- 38:12Speaker 16: players like Riley O'Brien, who we love, and he's a
- 38:15Speaker 16: 5AA regular, but he's got two years to run on
- 38:17Speaker 16: a contract. Do they stick that? Do they trade him out?
- 38:21Speaker 16: What do they do there? So they've got some issues
- 38:23Speaker 16: there because they're paying a fair bit of money for
- 38:25Speaker 16: someone to be, you know, playing away in the sample.
- 38:27Speaker 16: And he wouldn't want to be doing that. So do
- 38:29Speaker 16: they potentially try and trade him to a club that
- 38:32Speaker 16: really needs a Ruckman?
- 38:33Speaker 4: Then what happens if McAndrew gets injured.
- 38:35Speaker 6: In round one?
- 38:35Speaker 9: That's right.
- 38:35Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 38:36Speaker 4: So, you know, they've got to weigh all of that up.
- 38:38Speaker 4: That's absolutely right.
- 38:40Speaker 16: And do they make a hard call on someone like
- 38:42Speaker 16: Rory Laird, who's still got a year to run? And,
- 38:45Speaker 16: you know, Oscar Ryan, do you need to start playing
- 38:48Speaker 16: that generation next to, you know, try and get some
- 38:51Speaker 16: of that drive?
- 38:52Speaker 4: And is Rory Laird playing in the next premiership? I'm
- 38:54Speaker 4: not sure. Rennie, I'm of a different opinion.
- 38:57Speaker 5: I'm not sure whether you're just starting that as a
- 38:59Speaker 5: conversation or you.
- 38:59Speaker 4: Think that they should do that.
- 39:01Speaker 5: I think they need to get rid of the bottom
- 39:02Speaker 5: five players on their list and they need to get
- 39:05Speaker 5: five really good players in.
- 39:06Speaker 4: Now, everyone's going to say, oh, really, Ned? I mean, hallelujah.
- 39:09Speaker 4: But that's the reality.
- 39:11Speaker 5: I think you need to keep those top 25, 26 players,
- 39:14Speaker 5: 27 players.
- 39:15Speaker 13: Keep them.
- 39:16Speaker 4: Do not lose any of them.
- 39:17Speaker 5: You need competition for spots. That's what drives training standards.
- 39:20Speaker 5: It's not the Laird versus Oscar Ryan. That will not...
- 39:24Speaker 5: that will not make them take the next step. It's
- 39:26Speaker 5: getting an injection of three or four really high-quality players
- 39:30Speaker 5: in their best 24 or 25 players. And people like
- 39:34Speaker 5: Riley O'Brien and Nick Murray, and I'm biased because they're
- 39:36Speaker 5: my best mates, but if you let them go, and
- 39:40Speaker 5: Riley O'Brien might go to Melbourne and get traded, if
- 39:42Speaker 5: McAndrew goes down in round.
- 39:44Speaker 4: Two, well, good luck. Good luck.
- 39:46Speaker 5: Because when you play Jackson or these other ruckmen, you
- 39:49Speaker 5: will get dominated. So you need contingency in that space.
- 39:52Speaker 4: Same thing with Nick Murray. He's got an offering.
- 39:54Speaker 5: I suspect he's going to request a trade. I mean,
- 39:56Speaker 5: that's about as obvious as you know what. If he
- 39:59Speaker 5: goes and one of these key defenders goes down, it's
- 40:01Speaker 5: a whole different story. You need 28 or 30 really
- 40:05Speaker 5: good players, not 22.
- 40:07Speaker 16: The only thing is to get something, you've got to
- 40:10Speaker 16: give something up. That's the only problem. But, yeah, it's
- 40:13Speaker 16: really tricky. I mean, he's not getting a game, so
- 40:15Speaker 16: you can't blame him for going. He's saying, well, you're
- 40:17Speaker 16: not playing me, so I'm going to go elsewhere. And
- 40:20Speaker 16: I totally understand that as well. But if Adelaide are
- 40:23Speaker 16: going to do that, they've got to get something back.
- 40:25Speaker 16: So they either try and get that talent or improve it,
- 40:28Speaker 16: like you say, through the draft, or they've got to
- 40:30Speaker 16: do it through the trade period. Either way, they're a
- 40:33Speaker 16: fair way short at the moment. In terms of the
- 40:36Speaker 16: other game, what a cracker on Friday night. Frio just
- 40:39Speaker 16: held on in the end, but swings and roundabouts, high scoring, end-to-end,
- 40:42Speaker 16: it was fantastic.
- 40:43Speaker 4: Just a rollicking contest. It was an absolute cracking final.
- 40:46Speaker 4: Can I go back to the Crows? Of course you can.
- 40:48Speaker 2: Sorry.
- 40:49Speaker 4: Because I think this is important.
- 40:50Speaker 2: We're running out of time.
- 40:51Speaker 6: Oh, stuff off.
- 40:53Speaker 5: So what Geelong do is they don't pay for potential
- 40:56Speaker 5: or overpay, right?
- 40:57Speaker 16: Yep.
- 40:58Speaker 5: So someone at the back end of their career like
- 41:00Speaker 5: Toby Green, you know, Lockie Neal's going to Collingwood, you
- 41:03Speaker 5: don't have to give up a huge amount of draft capital. Like,
- 41:06Speaker 5: you don't have to give up a high pick, and
- 41:07Speaker 5: those players are going to help you in the one
- 41:10Speaker 5: to two years. So I just wonder, Rennie, whether maybe
- 41:14Speaker 5: it is time to now not go down the path
- 41:16Speaker 5: of three, four years' time.
- 41:17Speaker 4: It's like, no, no, no, now's the now.
- 41:19Speaker 5: Like, Lockie Neils, the Toby Greens, these guys that only
- 41:22Speaker 5: have two to three years left that you can get
- 41:23Speaker 5: for a second rounder. Is it the time now to
- 41:26Speaker 5: go stuff it? We're going all in.
- 41:28Speaker 4: Go chips in. I like chips in.
- 41:30Speaker 16: I don't think the Crows have been chips in enough
- 41:31Speaker 16: in the past in terms of, you know.
- 41:33Speaker 4: Is it chips in now, Rennie?
- 41:34Speaker 16: Well, I think they're in the window, but they need
- 41:37Speaker 16: one or two. They need a couple more, don't they?
- 41:39Speaker 16: They need a better midfield. Their midfield was, I mean,
- 41:42Speaker 16: they were bullied on the weekend.
- 41:43Speaker 6: Weren't they?
- 41:43Speaker 4: Well, could Lockie Neal help? Toby Green help?
- 41:45Speaker 2: Zach Merritt.
- 41:46Speaker 4: Zach Merritt.
- 41:46Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 41:47Speaker 4: I'd be going balls deep, like Rose said. Last year
- 41:50Speaker 4: it was three. Last year it was three first rounders
- 41:54Speaker 4: for Zach Merritt. What is it this year?
- 41:56Speaker 17: Is it one? Is it one?
- 41:58Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd argue maybe if it was two, can they
- 42:02Speaker 4: afford to do that, the Crows?
- 42:03Speaker 2: No.
- 42:04Speaker 4: Well, that's the discussion. It's a good discussion. It is
- 42:06Speaker 4: a good discussion.
- 42:07Speaker 1: Sorry.
- 42:07Speaker 4: Keep going. But, no, it's great. I love the passion. Like,
- 42:10Speaker 4: that's great, Ned. That's what they need. They need some honest,
- 42:12Speaker 4: frank discussion.
- 42:13Speaker 16: And I like the fact, you might not agree with it,
- 42:16Speaker 16: but I like the fact that the Crows.
- 42:17Speaker 4: Came out yesterday and backed their man. And there's a
- 42:21Speaker 4: lot of people.
- 42:21Speaker 16: Now, when we listen to talk back, it's probably the
- 42:23Speaker 16: ones that are agitated that are going to call you first.
- 42:26Speaker 16: But I like them. And we had 30 phone calls
- 42:28Speaker 16: after the game. But I like the fact that the
- 42:30Speaker 16: club came out and said, he's our man. We're hearing it.
- 42:34Speaker 16: If you're going to back him in, you've got to
- 42:35Speaker 16: believe that he's going to be the coach, not just
- 42:36Speaker 16: next year, but in 28 and 29.
- 42:38Speaker 4: So if you're going to do it, go all the way, baby. Otherwise,
- 42:42Speaker 4: you're mucking around. Really? But that's it.
- 42:45Speaker 5: Now, I'm not saying it's the right call, but if
- 42:48Speaker 5: you're going to make the call, stick by it. And
- 42:50Speaker 5: extend him further than next year. Well, no, I'm just
- 42:53Speaker 5: saying you've got to have that conviction.
- 42:55Speaker 4: Rennie, if they do that, the streets of Adelaide will
- 42:58Speaker 4: be in riot.
- 42:59Speaker 18: Totally.
- 42:59Speaker 16: I wouldn't do it now, but I'm saying you've at
- 43:01Speaker 16: least got to back him publicly. That he is your man.
- 43:04Speaker 4: Well, there's a fire and they're putting a blanket on
- 43:07Speaker 4: the fire.
- 43:07Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 43:08Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 43:09Speaker 4: Is it going to be enough? We need more time, Ren.
- 43:11Speaker 4: We need more time. Come in earlier.
- 43:15Speaker 2: I'll get in earlier tomorrow.
- 43:16Speaker 4: We'll have a good chat.
- 43:16Speaker 2: Well done, Tommy. Let's just also quickly wrap up AFLW.
- 43:19Speaker 2: Port went down by 51. The Crows went down by 11.
- 43:22Speaker 2: We know Sturt Norwood in the Sandford Grand Final.
- 43:24Speaker 4: Great call yesterday, Sammy. You were a part of it.
- 43:25Speaker 2: Just a minor part. Chas Mostert, Fabian Coulthard won the
- 43:28Speaker 2: Airtouch 500, the precursor to the Bathurst 1000.
- 43:30Speaker 10: Yes.
- 43:30Speaker 2: Torrential conditions at the bend, but they got the win.
- 43:34Speaker 2: And Kimi Antonelli won the Formula 1 race over last night.
- 43:37Speaker 4: And very quickly, Shane Lowry is a winner and a loser.
- 43:40Speaker 4: I'll talk about this later.
- 43:41Speaker 16: He won the Irish Open, his home event, by 11
- 43:43Speaker 16: shots or 12. But he's being absolutely smashed because he
- 43:48Speaker 16: hit a drive on the third day, almost hit the crowd,
- 43:50Speaker 16: and he was caught on the mic saying... they deserve
- 43:53Speaker 16: to get hit, the volunteers. So he is copying it.
- 43:56Speaker 4: What about this too? I love this text. Rob from Clearview.
- 43:59Speaker 5: Ned, since Reddy lets you down each week with South
- 44:02Speaker 5: Australian karate competitors, they achieved a historic result in the
- 44:05Speaker 5: 2026 Karate Australian National Championship in Hobart.
- 44:10Speaker 4: Eight gold, six silver, three bronze medals for our karate athletes.
- 44:13Speaker 4: You're beautiful.
- 44:14Speaker 2: Well done, Rob. Maybe you should start coming in at
- 44:15Speaker 2: quarter to six in the morning. Tommy, thank you.
- 44:17Speaker 13: Right.
- 44:18Speaker 4: The idiot.
- 44:21Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto. 5AA Early Breakfast.
- 44:29Speaker 2: Minutes to six. Will and Stace, the 5AA Breakfast coming up.
- 44:31Speaker 2: Julie in Tea Tree. Gully has the last say this morning.
- 44:34Speaker 1: Morning, Giles.
- 44:35Speaker 6: Good morning.
- 44:36Speaker 11: I just feel sorry for the boys and I'm very sad.
- 44:39Speaker 11: But look, at the end of the day, it is
- 44:42Speaker 11: what it is.
- 44:42Speaker 18: It happened.
- 44:43Speaker 12: Bring on summer. That's what I want now, summer.
- 44:47Speaker 4: Get the sun out, footy season behind us. Yep, nice work, Julie.
- 44:51Speaker 4: Thanks for your sentiment. It was sad, but it's not
- 44:53Speaker 4: all over. You know, we've got next year as Crows fans.
- 44:55Speaker 2: The sun will come up shortly. The day will go on.
- 44:59Speaker 4: It will.
- 44:59Speaker 2: The earth will keep spinning.
- 45:00Speaker 4: And, Julie, your son-in-law has JMS rule fencing.
- 45:04Speaker 14: He certainly does.
- 45:07Speaker 5: A big thanks to JMS Rural Fencing. They don't pay anything,
- 45:12Speaker 5: but they are a sponsor, much like Bickford's. A big
- 45:15Speaker 5: thank you to Bickford's, who don't pay anything. Thank you
- 45:17Speaker 5: for their support.
- 45:17Speaker 4: Pepper's Truck Wash, of course.
- 45:19Speaker 2: They do pay.
- 45:19Speaker 10: They do.
- 45:20Speaker 2: We love Ray Pepper.
- 45:20Speaker 4: We love Ray Pepper.
- 45:21Speaker 2: He's a great man.
- 45:22Speaker 4: Pepper's Truck Wash.
- 45:23Speaker 5: Manny and the Blue Brothers, thanks to you. Thanks to
- 45:25Speaker 5: Tom Wren. Thanks to all the wonderful techs and calls.
- 45:27Speaker 4: Good show.
- 45:30Speaker 2: Will and Stace, coming up next.
- 45:32Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto. 5AA Early Breakfast.
