  Speaker 1: You're listening to a DM podcast.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: We'll try to keep it as nice as we can,
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: but you might hear the occasional swear word in No Dribble.
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: Don't tell mom.
• 0:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, this is exciting.
• 0:22
  Speaker 5: We are back.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Hello, and welcome back to No Dribble, our first time
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: together in studio for twenty twenty five. We've been in
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: your ears, but that stuff that we did in the
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: past and just put in the time machine. But now
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: No Dribble is back. We are all together. There is
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: so much to talk about. We've missed you, all, Dribblers.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: I'm Carolyn Swindell. I'm kath Cox. It feels like we
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: have been gone forever.
• 0:44
  Speaker 6: I know who.
• 0:46
  Speaker 5: I'm Lizellus. I don't know who either of you are.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Ah, yes, and there we are back in the spirit
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: of it already. So we have had a really long
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: holiday and some netball stuff has happened, which we will
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: talk about soon. But I haven't seen much of either
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: of you. I have seen you briefly. I saw you
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: and then I dropped into Lizz's place. Did screw up
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: the daylight saving cat? So I need to apologize. I
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: see across the border and got it wrong.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: But yeah, what did you.
• 1:14
  Speaker 6: Get up to?
• 1:15
  Speaker 7: Well, I think the biggest news for me that we
• 1:18
  Speaker 7: talked about a lot before the holidays was that I
• 1:20
  Speaker 7: was going on a cruise and would I be into
• 1:23
  Speaker 7: it or not, because before we left, rather set my
• 1:26
  Speaker 7: hair on fire than go on a cruise. It was
• 1:29
  Speaker 7: tops aside from the very first day when I walked
• 1:33
  Speaker 7: into the buffet with all the hordes of people and
• 1:36
  Speaker 7: wanted to run out straight away, and then also walked
• 1:39
  Speaker 7: into my room and we didn't have a balcony, so
• 1:41
  Speaker 7: I walked into the room, shut the door, and I
• 1:43
  Speaker 7: got a little claustrophobic, and.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: I thought, why do people like this?
• 1:46
  Speaker 6: But it was unreal.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: You had a good time.
• 1:48
  Speaker 6: It was so fun.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: You know what you did? You leant into that experience,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: didn't you. You went, well, we're here, let's get around it.
• 1:54
  Speaker 7: And I think the cruise gods were aware of that
• 1:56
  Speaker 7: because then I won bingo.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you nine hundred US. Oh my god, that's
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: kind of funny.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: It was so good.
• 2:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah, so I'm converted on all fronts. It was great fun.
• 2:07
  Speaker 7: How many days six days, which I think was long enough. Yeah,
• 2:10
  Speaker 7: And we just went up to Early Beach and back.
• 2:13
  Speaker 6: Which was great.
• 2:14
  Speaker 7: So we had a little stuff over on you a
• 2:15
  Speaker 7: couple of days kind of cruising and great fun. Did
• 2:18
  Speaker 7: all the trivia, did the bingo, did the silent disco
• 2:22
  Speaker 7: thing or whatever you call it.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: It was cool for it is the absolute secret to happiness, though,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: isn't it. If you're going to do something, leaning makes
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: the most word and find what you can enjoy in it.
• 2:32
  Speaker 7: Eight for Australia. Oh god, there's a few extra kegs
• 2:35
  Speaker 7: that got off that shit.
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: But no, it was good. So yeah, that was me.
• 2:38
  Speaker 7: And then you know, I went to Perth and then
• 2:39
  Speaker 7: our trudeled down to sing Elizabeth at the.
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: Farm, how'd you go with daylight saving?
• 2:45
  Speaker 7: I was across at this time. No snake sightings, but Sparkles,
• 2:50
  Speaker 7: that's its name, isn't it. The green tree snake was
• 2:52
  Speaker 7: outside my window and I could hear it. Do you
• 2:55
  Speaker 7: know what noise the snake makes?
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: No what it's like a duck?
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: Elizabeth? Can you do your best snake for us?
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: Well, I've never heard and snake making noise.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: I do have a feeling that Sparkles might be like
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: a new species of snake, and I'm reluctant to sort
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: of put this out there in case I have to,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know, move house and leave our land because
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: they've got this really rare species.
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: Now it barks, it goes, you can hear it.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: And I thought it was the frogs that was chasing
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: when I first heard it, but we realize it's actually
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a snake.
• 3:29
  Speaker 7: I was with Alyssa Healy, the cricket guru, obviously everybody
• 3:33
  Speaker 7: knows who she is. On the weekend, Liza and I
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: had an event. It was actually Tuesday last week. She
• 3:39
  Speaker 7: showed me the snake that's on her property. It's a
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: seven foot python.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: It's massive. It is huge, huge, a really thick snake.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: So that would sort of give me pause for thought.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Mind you.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Matthew and I was spraying camp for laurels because they're
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: a weed. We have to spray more trapsing through the
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: paddick recently and we saw massive python wrapped around a
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: small tree and that was unreal.
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: Where was that far from the house?
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: Oh, a couple of meters, No, it was right underneath
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: your bedroom.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: Stop.
• 4:13
  Speaker 7: They're good ones if you're going to have a snake,
• 4:15
  Speaker 7: aren't Pythons for the most part, gentle like, They're not
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: kind of ones that are going to bite your attack
• 4:19
  Speaker 7: you or whatever else.
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: They could just strangle you to death.
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: And they're not poisonous.
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: No, they're not aggressive.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: So pythons are good because they keep your wrap and
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: mouse population down. And like most the only sanctions need
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: to worry about a brown snakes. And in thirteen years
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: at our house, I think I've seen four brown snakes.
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: Like at the farm, there's too many.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: But yeah, get I get that. It's the outdoors. I
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: understand this happens out there. My son is currently trying
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: to mount a case to be allowed to have a
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: snake as a pet, and I said, I'm not like,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: I'm not a hard note, but I just do not
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: see the appeal, Like what, it's just something to look after.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: It's not like, oh, let the snake sit on.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: My lap while we watch TV.
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: Like it's not what it show your affection. Nor what
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: kind of snake then a python?
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, some sort of non paper you're not a no, Well,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: I'm curious to understand the case behind it. I'm not
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: a hard no. I'm a pretty soft no. Like I'm
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: very much leaning towards no. But it's like, convince me,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: tell me why this would be in any way a
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: good thing to have.
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: Well, you have to catch your own mice and stuff
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: to feed it.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Or is there somewhere you could like do you like,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: is there a place on the internet where you can
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: just buy packs of frozen masks?
• 5:31
  Speaker 7: Can you just get them from pet barn? Yeah, they're
• 5:35
  Speaker 7: all frozen and there's a freezer section and they have
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: frozen Why you in pet bark Because Harber is obsessed
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: with animals, particularly dogs. Every time we go near a
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: pet shop, she has to go in and look at
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: everything just in case we decide to get Yeah, and
• 5:49
  Speaker 7: there's a freezer section full of that stuff and crickets
• 5:53
  Speaker 7: and all sorts of Yeah.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: My mum was a biology teacher when I was in
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: primary school and I remember driving out with her somewhere
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: where she had to go and pick up all the
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: dead rats that have been pinned on boards for the
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: year eleven biology students to dissect and put them in
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: the back of our car. And I'm like, this is
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: this is the stuff of nightmares. I was seven or.
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: Eight years old.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: That stink, yes, yeah, yeah, And the place that we
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: had to go to stank. And it's like, what type
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: of torture chamber is this that these people spend their
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: time putting rats on boards. I pinned out, like crucifying
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: these things.
• 6:28
  Speaker 7: Wow, we've completely moved off the topic of holidays.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: What did you do?
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: Look, you know I had people calling in.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: An hour late all the way through, whether it was
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: either of you two or Meghan Anderson's, everyone.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: Was always an hour late.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: That's what I get for living up near the on
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: the right side of the Queensland border. Please send all
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: of your complaints Queenslanders to not dribble. I won't answer
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: any of them.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: I had a nice summer.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Actually turned my computer off the week before Christmas and
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: didn't turn back on and on to the end of January.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: I was pretty brain dead, but we went down to
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: we went to Sydney for news and when saw Hamilton.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have seen hat.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: It's great, isn't it.
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: It's so good.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: So my kids just walk around singing like a Lafayette song,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: The one we like to sing is You'll be back,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: which I think it is quite ironic at the moment.
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: I'm sure there's a lot of people in.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: The US going could we go back and be a
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: protector of the United Kingdom.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Please years, I'll kill your friends and family just to
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: remind you of my love.
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so I'll leave you to it.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: So that was great, and then we went to the
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Cricket which was fantastic, and then we went down to
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: went to the Snowy Mountains and we camped at Threadboat Diggings,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: which was fantastic if you ever get a chance to
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: do it. It's like two bucks a night, which seems
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: really cheapen to you you're spending fifty bucks a day
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: for your National Parks past.
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: But anyhow, so we.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Camp there and we walked up Mount Kaziosco, which was
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: well and I'd like to say, we climb Mount Koziosko.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: You do it, just stroll fifteen thousand people strolling.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I think it's accessible, like it's wheelchair accessible.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: Almost the whole way to the top.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Now yeah, yes, yes, But to do that first you
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: actually have to catch the lift up, which was we've
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: spent out two hundred and twenty bucks on lift tickets
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: for the forest. Yeah it was expensive, but anywhow So,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: but then the next day I was like, oh, there's
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: all these mountain bike trails that go through from Threadbay
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: diggings like all the way along as like it's like
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: thirty four kilometers Threadbow Valley trail and it was flat right.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: So when you go down to Threadbow, there's all these
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: mountain bikers who are catching the chair lifts up and
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: riding down the black runs down, but the one that
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: goes along beside the river for thirty something kilometers is
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: a green run.
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: And I was like, oh, we'll be fine, we can
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: do this.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: We don't own a mountain bike between us, but we've
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: got we've all got cruisers. So I say to the
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: kids in Math, you put your helmets on and we'll
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: do this green ride up to Threadbow. And so we
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: did it, and it was like fifteen kilometers of hell.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: It was on your own, so you were on your
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: cruiser bikes.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: You were on our cruiser bikes.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: And this woman at one point, all these people are
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: riding past us, more than only one's going the way
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: where all these people are riding past us.
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: And this woman at one point she's there in like.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Her full face mask and her mountain bike with suspension
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: and like the full like the chest protection and everything.
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: She looked at me and she goes good luck.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: It will be fine, and the kids are getting winder
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: and crankier, and everyone found to take a turn and
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: end up going down this really steep hill. And now
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: that stopped from going all the way down to the
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: river where she grabbed onto a bush and took a
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: massive stack. Anyway, we got to the end and I said, yeah,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: we did it, and us is riding down the main
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: street of Threadboat with his hands in the air, no hands,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: like he's just one of the top.
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: And we got to the end. But I said to someone,
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: we've just ridden from Threadboat Diggings. They go, why did
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: you ride up hill?
• 10:06
  Speaker 7: Okay, so there is a lesson in this. If Liz
• 10:08
  Speaker 7: Ellis wants you to go on a bike tour with
• 10:10
  Speaker 7: her anywhere, immediately say no. She's telling me this story
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: during the holidays, and I had flashbacks to when we
• 10:19
  Speaker 7: were in America and we're in Cape Cod and Liz
• 10:22
  Speaker 7: said the same thing, let's go for a little ride,
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: and I think I was your son and your daughter
• 10:26
  Speaker 7: winging at the end of that as well.
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: It went on and on and on, and I kept saying.
• 10:30
  Speaker 7: Should we turn around, knowing full well we'd have to
• 10:32
  Speaker 7: go back the way We just came.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: And so remember my mom was with us, and she
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: was like seventy. But what I had done on that trip,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: I had mucked up. I'd forgotten that I was looking
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: at miles.
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: Yes, it was twenty k.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Twenty godar I do have form in that regard. So
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: my family starting to talk to me.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Did you all end the bike? Cried with the same
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: number of teeth that you started with.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: Yes, we did. And the other thing that I didn't
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: really think about.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: It's a one way right, so you see, and there's
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: no shuttles or eating to get your back. And I
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: was when we started my we'll just ride back. So
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: nobody wanted to ride back, so they made me. I
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: had to go up and ride on the Snowy Mountains
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Highway and were so the only people riding the trail
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: bikes like mountain bikers with the leg year and the
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: only people who were riding the Stowy Mountains Highway were
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: like on road bikes taking my cruiser.
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: Oh my god, how wracked were you? Well the time
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: you got home?
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: But honestly, what a pack of amateurs like?
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Seriously, But I did earn my view that day when
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: I cracked my pale ale at the end of the day,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: I was like chee.
• 11:47
  Speaker 7: Up and then getting off a bike seat after that
• 11:51
  Speaker 7: long as well, I couldn't walk for days.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I had a very very relaxing holiday obviously.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Well look, we haven't discussed my holiday and most of
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: it was at home, which was very nice. But I
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: am now, thanks to Holidays, a development accredited development coach
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: with Netball Australia, thank you very much, which I think
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: makes me the highest qualified coach amongst the notiable hosts.
• 12:18
  Speaker 6: No, that's not right.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: What are you?
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: I'm an intermediate, I'm an advanced are you?
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: Since when? Since ever? Just don't do it.
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: I bet it's expired.
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: That's one.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: I bet it's expired.
• 12:31
  Speaker 7: So I would be the highest qualified this Okay now you.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Are yes anyway, Yes, So I've just done my development
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: coach accreditation. I had to do my Rules of Netball exam,
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: which I passed by the skin of my teeth.
• 12:43
  Speaker 7: Well, it's because my good friend Karen was running the
• 12:46
  Speaker 7: courses today. She text me in the morning's like, oh god,
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: I've got trouble here with me today. One of your
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: no dribble counterparts is in the house, so we'll be
• 12:54
  Speaker 7: nice to her.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: She must have mentioned the podcast. I think this was
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: it was implied that if everyone in the course was
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: not willing to commit to starting to listen to the podcast,
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: that they weren't going to pass. She was she's the
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: best marketing we've met had well plodcast.
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, thank you. She was fantastic. It was great.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: That was really it was good to get out there,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: and I feel inspired for the netball year ahead because
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: my girls are going into under twelve. So I've just
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: started to feel a bit like just winging it here
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: is not enough anymore for these kids. I need to
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: be able to give them more.
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: Now, did you need to do that or you just
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: wanted to.
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: Just wanted to it?
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because I just I just feel a little bit
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: like I'm I'm not able to give them what they
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: need at the moment, and it's like, you know, no
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: one else is sticking their hand up, But that doesn't
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: mean they should get a second rate job. If I'm
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: willing to do it, I should try to do it well.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: So I'm so excited and yeah it was great. So
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: I learned a lot.
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: But you had a bit more netball during the holidays
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: as well, didn't you.
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: I did I did. I went and tell the Swifts
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: play in New Zealand.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: That was so good.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: It was fantastic.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: It was at Netball Central, so it was a really
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: intimate court. Was only three or four thousand people there,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: and New Zealand really used it as you know it was.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: It was trials for them, so they were rotating their
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: players through a lot. The Swifts won, but I think
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: that was also a product of New Zealand go. We
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: want to give everyone court time, we want to test
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: all sorts of different combinations and things. But it was
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: so fantastic. Was great to see Graycenweki on court. But
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: another couple of newbies there, so Verity Simmons, I had
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: not seen before. I don't know what happened why I
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: hadn't seen her play before, and I don't know whether
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: it's her time in AFL, but she is a weapon,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: like just so so strong, so athletic. That's going to
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: be exciting. But the other one Shannie Lambdon and this
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: story Bloody loved this. So she's she'll turn twenty seven
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: in April and she has been a training partner for
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: eight years.
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: Oh that's commitment with Collingwood.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Then she moved to the Vixen's and then the first
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: time she got any game time was like in round
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: nine last year. Three minutes in that and when Vixen's
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: defeated the man you remember, when Rudy Ellis rolled around,
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: Clin had to go off. So that was the first time.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: So Shannie's been a training partner for sort of seven
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: plus years at this stage, and it's like, now you
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: get some caught times, You've got a couple of games,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: and then Brian has picked her up and now it's like,
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: what a great story of resilience and determination, and you
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: know that you know, some people get it, you know,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: I hope White has been a training partner for the
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Giants and at under nineteens is going to be starting
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: with them, or you know, certainly in the in the ten.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: And it's like that's good luck for her because Gina
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: Crampton's pregnant, but you know, for Shannie Lamb and just
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: having to hang in there, keep believing in it and going,
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: I have this opportunity. It must be so hard not
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: to get bitter, I guess or exhausted.
• 15:36
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but also open to the fact that you know,
• 15:38
  Speaker 7: she had to move for that opportunity, yep, to come
• 15:41
  Speaker 7: to Fruition, and that's in itself is a big deal,
• 15:44
  Speaker 7: like to up and move your life and whatever you
• 15:46
  Speaker 7: were doing in Melbourne and come up and potentially a
• 15:48
  Speaker 7: partner and whatever else. But I'll tell you what the
• 15:51
  Speaker 7: swifts very.
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: As you say, looking fit. I saw her the other day.
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: She will tell you though, that it is so much
• 15:58
  Speaker 7: harder to go from AFL back to netball because in
• 16:02
  Speaker 7: AFL it's long run. So like you got to train yourself.
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: I remember Shanni Norder, Shanni Layton saying that she had
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: to train herself to run. She had to learn to
• 16:10
  Speaker 7: run because a netball you don't ever just stretch the
• 16:14
  Speaker 7: legs out and trot. You're just all changing direction. So
• 16:18
  Speaker 7: she said when she went to AFL, she had to
• 16:19
  Speaker 7: learn how to run again. And then Verity obviously found
• 16:23
  Speaker 7: the same thing. But now she's come back, so she said,
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: she's still struggling a little bit with the explosive side
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: of stuff. So for you to say she's a weapon,
• 16:30
  Speaker 7: watch out, she's going to get better.
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: I just couldn't believe it.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: It was and it was so great to see this
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: game because we were really close to it too. I
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: mean you get that all the time, you know, in
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: your good seats, but I recognize that you're working and
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: you don't get the can of gin in your seat.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it's really nice to be that close to
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: it and get that sense of that power. And yeah,
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: it was great. It made me so excited to get
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: into this year. Met some dribblers. I met Steph, and
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: I met Carolyn who we'd met at our live event. Hi, Steph, Carol,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: good to see that. There were some others there was great.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's so good.
• 17:03
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, that's so good. Like I keep saying, if
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: the Swifts don't win it this year, something has gone
• 17:07
  Speaker 7: horribly wrong.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: I had to say, Carolyn, are you on the bandwagon
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: with Coxie about the Swifts this year?
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: I have already booked my flights to Melbourne, would you anyway?
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: Though?
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's nothing, but look, it's feeling good, isn't it.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: But you know, look at the Thunderbirds and the Vixens
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: last year in that final days, that's two exciting teams again.
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: Yeah yeah with no changes.
• 17:33
  Speaker 7: Yeah, stractors, we've got grading tonight.
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: So Harper's not playing nets that go anymore. She's gone
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: up a.
• 17:41
  Speaker 7: Year into tens and now they do grading, which has
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: been very controversial because the team's basically split up now,
• 17:50
  Speaker 7: which is kind of sad, like they all obviously wanted
• 17:52
  Speaker 7: to stay together.
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: But at some stage it's inevitable, isn't it.
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: You've got to kind of do your grading and people
• 17:58
  Speaker 7: end up where they end up. That's been tough, but
• 18:01
  Speaker 7: that the first lot of that will start tonight. But
• 18:03
  Speaker 7: we've lost like eighty percent of the team.
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: Okay, So can I ask you this question.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know quite how grading works because I'm in
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: a little country.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: Would you like the highest qualified coach in the not trip.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, because I love having my little team who I've
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: had them since summer, but lets it go and now
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: they'll be fourteens this year and to just have them
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: the whole time and watch them develop.
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: And I don't know, I don't know how I go.
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: I don't know how i'd feel about grading.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: But I mean, I had quick conversation, a quick conversation
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: with you, Carolyn, when you were here at my house.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: But I quite understand the rationale for it.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: So I think that the rationale is so my daughter
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: has been in graded teams now for a few years,
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: and obviously they want to stick.
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: Together and whatever.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: But I actually think it's quite good as a community
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: club that they are put into teams with different kids,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: because then they get to know other people in the
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: neighborhood as well. But I think I reckon part of
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: it is actually some of these girls won't push themselves
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: if they are just in the team with their friends,
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: and that in order to find those kids who might
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: need the nurturing, who might actually have, you know, real talent,
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: you've got to be able to kind of put them
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: into different environments. And my team change is a bit
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: every year, like I've had probably this is the third year,
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: fourth year I co'tmember, but I have about five who
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: stayed with me the whole time, and then others have changed.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: And I think that's been good for all of them,
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: that they're getting fresh players in and learning how to
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: play with different people. But what I didn't realize is
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: they stop grading at under fourteenth, and I think that's
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: because at that age a lot of the kids are
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: going to drop out unless they can play with their friends.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: So it's like, do this for a few years, try
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: and see if you're better than you think. Then you're
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: giving yourself credit for. But then after that in order
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: to keep you in the sport, because that's the age
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: when they're all going to drop out. It's like, yep,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: do what you want, be a team that you want.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: So I quite like it, but I get that it's
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: I get that it's it's an opportunity cost.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was thinking that, Like, you know, one of
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the things that you sort of wrestle with all the
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: time is how do you stop the drop off?
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: And I get that you want to make sure that
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: the kids who want to push each other and be
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: competitive can all play together, and then the kids who
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: sort of don't just like to I don't know, it
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: just goes through the gigal type yeah.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: Right, so that they can do it.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: But like, one of the big things about about playing sports,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: particularly in your teenage years, is that you get to
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: hang out with your mates. So yeah, yeah, you've got
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: to sort of cater to both of those.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: But you know, with girls at school often there are
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: friendship dramas, and I think it's great for them to
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: have friends who are not you know, hundred because they'll
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: stay with you know, they'll join they'll join a team,
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: usually with people from school and so then the problems
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: that they're having there, but to have different, different social
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: outlets there. But I think that when you're playing for
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: a community club, it's not a school club, and that's
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: you know, you should actually be open to that idea
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: that your kid's going to be playing with kids from
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: other schools in the neighborhood and probably end up a
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: high school together.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Anyway.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to say, it's actually and it's
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: been interesting watching my daughter this year, going from year
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: seventy year eight, and you know, they've got put in
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: their classes last year at her high school and she
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: made a heap of friends within her class, and now
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: she's got friends who are really upset because they've all
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: jumbled up the classes this year, and you know, because
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: she's happy to be friends with whoever, she doesn't care.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: She's like, oh, I'll just make friends in my new class,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: but I'll still keep my old friends. And perhaps the
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: fact that she's played sport before just makes that whole
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: process easier because she's had to walk into teams not
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: so much network because she's a play with the mates,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: where she's had to walk into rugby.
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: Teams where she's then a girl too.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, right, so she knows she's pretty capable
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: of just being there by herself. So certainly that grading
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: component probably equips up skills kids to be able to
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: you know, when you walk into high school and you've
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: got to you're not with your mates and you're not
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: with your safety net, you can actually you can make
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: new friends.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's good for resilience building. It's also like,
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: you know what, you're not going to get everything there.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: So you might not be in the first division doesn't
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: mean that you can't enjoy your netball, doesn't mean that
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: you can be a really powerful and important player within
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: that team.
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: It's a life lesson, isn't it.
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but do you reckon?
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: It's not the kids that need the lesson sometimes a mute.
• 22:13
  Speaker 7: Now, speaking of your children, Elizabeth, last night was the
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: finale of I'm a Celebrity.
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: Get Me out of Here, And you know.
• 22:20
  Speaker 7: I couldn't help but think of them, because last night
• 22:24
  Speaker 7: in the finales when they let the families run into camp,
• 22:27
  Speaker 7: and I was thinking of your kids and how special
• 22:30
  Speaker 7: that was obviously hugely special for you as well.
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: Did you guys all watch it together?
• 22:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: We actually we watched the other that we watched on
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Thursday night when they went from five to three. Oh yeah,
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: but I must have been Wednesday, So Wednesday we must
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: have been watching it when they went down to five.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: And the kids were like, oh, I remember this time
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: two years ago. Was it quite two years ago because
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: it was a different time, but anyway, they remember when
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: it was us, and they had all their bags packed
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: and I didn't realize this. Of course I had all
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: their bags packed ready to go, and they were going
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: to get the call that night if they were required
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: to go to South Stop.
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: So they go for the final five.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: They go for the final final if because they don't
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: have time, yes, like they've they've got to leave on
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: the Thursday morning to get everybody over there to do
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: the trial for the Sunday night show, right, so they
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: get they basically fly the families into the last five.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: So they and like my kids knew that, and so
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: they had packed their bags waiting to see.
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: If I got through.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: And the only time in the whole competition that you
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: know when they say it might be you when we're
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: going at that was the only night that I was
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: in the bottom.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: Oh no.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: And so the kids were there and they were like, no,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: they sort of got themselves to go to South Africa.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Matthew's like, please God, let her get out because then
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: I don't have to get on its kids on the
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: other side of the world.
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: So he's praying one way and the kids are praying
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: the other way.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: Anyway, it was just fun to hear them talk, like
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: to remedisce about that night. And then Matthew was lying
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: in bed and like he didn't get the email through
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: with the details until close to midnight and they were
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: getting picked up at five thirty am the next Oh
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: my god, get a part of the Gold Coast and
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: enough flying Gold Coast Melbourne, Melbourne, Dohat, Dohart, joe Burg,
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: joe Burg.
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: Hopes for it.
• 24:19
  Speaker 7: Well, oh my god, with two kids, very direct flights
• 24:23
  Speaker 7: from Australia.
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: To joe Burg. Sure, yeah, they're not economical.
• 24:29
  Speaker 7: Only when you become the Queen of the Jungle do
• 24:31
  Speaker 7: you get business class on the way back?
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: That's right. So yeah, so that was fie.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: But then to watch them and to have you know,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: when Maddie Jay was sitting there and his kids walked in.
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: And he just burst into tears.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: I was watching and I thought, I like that moment
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: is so overwhelming because you've been thinking about your family
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: and your kids, but you know that they belong at home,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: and suddenly when they're in the jungle with you, it's
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: it's really jarring. And it was funny because like when
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: you see your family and it's so emotional. I couldn't
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: stop seeing them and hugging them and I want to
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: talk to them. And then you have to go out
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: and do the trial. And that night Asha and Harry
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: and I got home and we actually were like, oh,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: thank god, we're back here. See I said, home back
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: to the jungle, got back to camp. We almost needed
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: a night to sort of get used to being back
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: out with your family, and so you have that time
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: you need to come back and just sort of decompress
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: a bit.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: So I think it would have been almost.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: Too overwhelming to go out with your families and stay
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: at Actually were quite happy to go back into our
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: little hearty ole list.
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: Did obviously you miss them right because you don't see them,
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: there's no communication. Did they miss you though? Because they
• 25:38
  Speaker 7: see you every night like they're watching the Telly and
• 25:41
  Speaker 7: they see you. So what was their take on it?
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: They missed me, but because I mean I was still
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: I wasn't at home, right, So they saw him for
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: an hour and a half, but the rest of the
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: time not at home.
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: And Austin was I think six.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: He turned seven when I was in the jungle, and
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: the first night, for the first week, every time they
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: did a VIC and it wasn't me, he cried, I
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: just home, me to come home, and I'd missed his
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: birthday and so that was really hard.
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: So yeah, so they knew it.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: I was up to I just I hated it because
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: like you can say that in the jungle for months
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: if you know that your founily's okay, But the hard
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: thing is that you just don't know they're okay.
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: But yeah, when I was watching and I saw Sam
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: Friday and his little girls, and I was like, yeah,
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: I remember.
• 26:22
  Speaker 6: That I picked him. I picked him. He is the
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: winner episode.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: You've picked the last couple of winners from the first.
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: And the year before. I picked Sky.
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 26:31
  Speaker 7: There's just some personalities you're like, you're a tops human,
• 26:34
  Speaker 7: you can just tell early and they get on with everybody.
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: And I mean that's why Liz was always going to win.
• 26:39
  Speaker 7: That was easy from the get go. But watching the show,
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: there's so I feel like ringing you nearly every time.
• 26:45
  Speaker 7: I need to have you on the speaker phone as
• 26:47
  Speaker 7: I'm watching the show because there's so many things I
• 26:48
  Speaker 7: want to ask. One of the ones I was thinking
• 26:51
  Speaker 7: of last night, so one of the last challenges, they
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: just got covered in slime, all sorts of horrendous shit.
• 26:57
  Speaker 7: I was like, where do they get their clean clothes from?
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: Then?
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: Obviously not just popping out and washing those, And like, so,
• 27:02
  Speaker 7: how many sets are clothes do you have when you're
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: in there?
• 27:05
  Speaker 5: You have three sets?
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: You had a couple of sets, so like from memory,
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: I had like a long sleeve khaki shirt, a singlet
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: and maybe two T shirts, two pairs of shorts, and
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: a pair of pants.
• 27:18
  Speaker 5: You actually have to wash your hand, wash your clothes.
• 27:20
  Speaker 7: You go.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: So when they got slimed, you get back and you
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: have a shower, and the shower's cold at night. So
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: and we were there in April and it was so
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: I was a bit colder.
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: So you get back and I.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: You siddenly cry because you get back and you'd be cold,
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: and then you have to get into a cold shower,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: and then I would just leave my clothes in a pie. Like,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: I'd give them a rinse in the shower and then
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: I'd get up the next morning.
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: And because you got nothing to do, you have to
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: like the.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Only way I stayed saying was to establish a little
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: routine for myself. So I've got them every morning, and
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: I went down to the gym and I made myself
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: in jokes, I thought, I don't get time to do
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: this at home. Have a good long stretch, do some pilates,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: and then I'd go and have like my little hand
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: of oats, and then I'd go and do my hand washing,
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: and which would take me up to when they started
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: filming the show. So, yeah, it's gross, right, you end
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: up with all this gunk over here, and yeah, you
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: just guess then any stick it gross, And like you
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: have to use this eco soap because it's like in
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: the jungle, you have to use eco.
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: So it doesn't it doesn't work.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: It doesn't work at eco shamboo gross.
• 28:24
  Speaker 7: The other thing that keeps bugging me is do you
• 28:26
  Speaker 7: get lunch? Because there's all the talk around dinner being
• 28:29
  Speaker 7: the big meal and the little handful of oats for breakfast?
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: Do you get lunch?
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: You get rice and beans, so I noticed beans. But
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: every day it's the same thing.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: It's rice and beans and so and you get this
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: tiny amount of rice and heaps of beans, like massive
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: amounts of beans, but.
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: Sometimes farting as well everywhere.
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah gross.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: But we would always keep extra beans aside in case
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: we didn't get much for dinner, so we would sort
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: of you could eat the rasp but then we try
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: and keep a little bit of extra rice and a
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: little bit of beans.
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: And the thing that kept us.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: All alive, like a prisoner, and the thing that kept.
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: Us all alive.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: And this was Dom's idea because she's a tangent. She
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: realized that we got unlimited olive oil. So we just
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: put olive oil on everything, like dunked it on everything.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: In the cooking, we just used masses of olive oil
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: because it's got all the calories.
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's actually quite good for you. So we used
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: heap that.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: But yeah, but the hard thing about the rice and
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: beans was like it was my job to cook the
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: rice and beans while we're in camp.
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: And I was like, hey, I can cook rice, but
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: there's no timer.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Right, I don't have any idea of when lunch is
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: and I sort of started to figure out because you
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: could sort of hear Chris and Julia when Chris was
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: hosting it. You could sort of hear them up in
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: the distance, so you'd know at certain times, like roughly
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: what the time was. So I would start cooking the
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: beans when I heard them say I'm a celebrity, get
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: me out here. Say okay, the show started. I put
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: the beans on.
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: And then it's.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: Crazy yeah, And then I'd sort of guess when about
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: half an hour gone by and I put the rice
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: on an and we didn't like it had nothing to
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: measure the rice with, like you know at home you
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: got your measurements, and so I had to guess. And
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: then you cook the beans in water, and the boys
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: were so hungry. They would like, after I, after I
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: cooked the beans, that have bean juice tea.
• 30:17
  Speaker 7: So I'd have to, oh, my god, the desperation.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: That's very smart, isn't it the juice. I'm engross but smart.
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: And when Nick comings the Badger came in, he was
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: like experimenting with everything. He was like, we fried banana
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: skins and the boy and I was like, I'm not
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: going to eat banana skins. And then he made this
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: like one night we had bones, so he made bone broths,
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: so we drank, we boiled the bones after dinner, and
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: because he's just so hungry.
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: Oh my god.
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: But it was funny watching it.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I actually thought at one point when they were doing
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: one of the eating challenges and they had to dieballs
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: and rat stars, which is what I had to eat,
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: I thought, like a few different times, I've had phone
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: calls going no, we're tossing around some ideas, would you
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: be interested in an All Stars version?
• 31:01
  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: And I've always been like, oh yeah, And then I
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: say they eat out and I'm like, I'll never do it.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: What about Hughes eat vegan for fifteen years and had
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: to eat bars penis quite like, Okay.
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: It's a it's a penis, Like, it's not.
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: It's it's flesh. Yeah, but seen a pi.
• 31:18
  Speaker 7: It's not like that's that's what he's abstaining from outside.
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: So when he when he was carrying on about that,
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: I thought, not cant.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: It's not like he hasn't eaten an animal product in
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: fifteen years. He hasn't eaten honey, he hasn't eaten dairy,
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: he hasn't eaten cheese, let alone, any form of meat.
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: Okay, and you think.
• 31:36
  Speaker 7: That I'm just like it over It's just it's crap.
• 31:41
  Speaker 7: Everyone's eating crap. They don't want to eat. Yeah, yeah,
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: but you know, I get it, like it was a
• 31:45
  Speaker 7: long it's a long time now. But I'm thinking it's
• 31:47
  Speaker 7: not like it's a cut of meat, you know what
• 31:49
  Speaker 7: I mean, Like it's not a nice one that you
• 31:52
  Speaker 7: would abstain from in the outside world.
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: It's a penis.
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: I don't know that bars penis is a given weight
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: drug to red meat though.
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: Not a chance. Oh god, I.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: Was good fun watching it, and yeah it is. It's
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: quite weird watching it knowing exactly what they've all gone
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: through and exactly what it's like, and it was pretty cool.
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: And then camping that was I really know what they're
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: going through. It's terrible carrying you and I was wearing
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: your thongs in the shower.
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that's tough, isn't it?
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: In line to wash.
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: Well, I'll get in touch when more questions come up, Elizabeth,
• 32:30
  Speaker 7: because I've always Yeah, the.
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: Other worst for me was right. So I decided.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Early on that I was just going to shower in
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: the nicky Nuna and I said to the producers, can
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: you just not show me? I just don't give you
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: permission to show even if it's blue, and you can't
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: show me on television in the nude. And not that
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: I'm approved, but I just thought, my husband and my
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: kids don't need to see me on the TV. And so,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: as Catherine knows, I love being I've seen it too
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: many times. So I said to the producer, can you
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: not film me?
• 32:59
  Speaker 7: Go?
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we have to have the cameras on you.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: We'll put them to blue because if you fall over
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: and hit your head, we need to know, like if
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: something's happened. I said, yeah, okay. So I spent the
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: whole time showing me thinking that no one can really
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: see me. And then I realized as I left, there
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: was all these army bloats like patrolling around the perimeter
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: on the outside that we couldn't see.
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: They can see.
• 33:18
  Speaker 7: Are they all like cam cream and stuff? They fully, Oh,
• 33:24
  Speaker 7: so you've just been putting on a show every night
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: when you're having a shower.
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: Anyway, good luck to community service.
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: Oh that's right.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: If that's the best part of their day, Liz, consider
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: it a public service that you've done. Now, listen, one
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: of the reasons we weren't here last week is we
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: were trying to set up some new stuff and we
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: do have a new segment that's very exciting.
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: We're going to give it a try. Yeah, we do.
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: That's cool.
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: Do you read the memos?
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: Carolyn does all sorts of stuff and when I'm not
• 33:50
  Speaker 7: around Elizabeth.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: So this segment is called ask a Coach. Now, this one,
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: this idea has come from a dribbler and I have
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: a question. Well, I just get to ask my questions,
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: and I think this is the thing that other people
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: are saying, Well, maybe I could too. Yeah, so we
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: have this question. This question comes from Nick, who is
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: an under twelves coach in my same association. So, but
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: please feel free everyone to send in your own ask
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: a coach question. So one she always finds confusing as
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: a sideline throwing. Did they ever have a drill for that?
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: Was it simply quickest to the sideline? Assuming center third,
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: who's receiving it? Gold center? Where are the wing attack
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: and the goal attack? Did they practice any set plays
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: for that? So we thought and we thought and we
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: thought about who would be a good coach to answer
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: a question like this? And we have Lisa Alexander. I
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: don't know if you've heard of her, but I think
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: nine years she was the coach of the Australian Diamonds.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: But thanks to our friends at netfit, Lisa has answered
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Nick's question.
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: Here.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: We'll just play a snippet of it now, but the
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: rest of it will be on the Facebook page, So
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: jump on that and have a listen to have a
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: listened to this.
• 34:53
  Speaker 8: Generally speaking, for a sideline throwing, particularly in the center court,
• 34:58
  Speaker 8: I like the person who who is first to the
• 35:01
  Speaker 8: ball to take the ball for that sideline, and that
• 35:04
  Speaker 8: means that everyone else needs to know what their role
• 35:08
  Speaker 8: is if that player takes the ball. Generally speaking, I
• 35:13
  Speaker 8: don't like the goal attack to take that pass on
• 35:15
  Speaker 8: the sideline in the center third because I like them
• 35:18
  Speaker 8: to be closer to the goals where they're going to
• 35:21
  Speaker 8: be scoring those goals for your team. So generally speaking,
• 35:25
  Speaker 8: it'll usually be the goal offense, the wing defense, and
• 35:29
  Speaker 8: maybe the center that takes that sideline throwing.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so thank you Lisa, and thank you netfit. And
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: netfit has a whole bunch of drills for coaches. Even
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: if you're not as highly qualified as I am, you
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: might find these useful, but yeah, so we'll put that
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: on our Facebook page. And there's also another little drill
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: that they've got on there that we'll probably share on
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Instagram anyway, get around it.
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: So thanks netfit So dribblers. What we know, We've.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: Been looking at our numbers and we know that most
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: of our listeners are from New South Wales, followed by Victoria,
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: followed by Queens and now we know there are a
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: lot of mad mad netball fans in South Australia and
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: we have had some requests to bring a live event
• 36:12

• 36:44
  Speaker 2: listen to us.
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: One of the most important things that we do here
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: and we will continue to do it in twenty twenty five,
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: and this is the very first time we do it
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: is we like to recognize the people who keep our
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: game alive at the community level all around the country.
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: We call this Sei and Win beneath our Wings and
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: we love it and we know that you love it too,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: And we have a nomination this week CAF.
• 37:06
  Speaker 7: We do this comes from Kerrie Cameron and she starts
• 37:10
  Speaker 7: by saying that she's been thinking about submitting this for
• 37:13
  Speaker 7: a wind beneath my Wings for a long time, but
• 37:16
  Speaker 7: it's not your usual suspect. So she goes on to
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: say her sister Shari has been a diehard Netball of
• 37:21
  Speaker 7: her whole life. We grew up in Country Victoria, so
• 37:24
  Speaker 7: at least half the year was devoted to Netbull and
• 37:27
  Speaker 7: Football AFL. We watched mum train when we were very
• 37:30
  Speaker 7: young and started playing as soon as we could. But
• 37:33
  Speaker 7: here is the difference. Scherie has had limited vision for
• 37:37
  Speaker 7: years now. She's actually legally blind with only five percent vision.
• 37:42
  Speaker 7: She hasn't played in years, but follows her games, her
• 37:45
  Speaker 7: sister's games. Back in the day and the Sun called
• 37:48
  Speaker 7: a Z League Instead. She re comes up to Brisbane
• 37:51
  Speaker 7: each year to watch a live game with me.
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: Isn't that incredible?
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: It's so great.
• 37:55
  Speaker 7: I know what legend, absolute champion. Shout out to you, Sharen,
• 38:00
  Speaker 7: Thank you to Carrie for sending that through.
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, what a wonderful what a wonderful fan of our
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: great game. Fantastic Thank you Shari, you are the wind
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: beneath our wings. Well, that is the end of our
• 38:12
