  Speaker 2: Dribble Don't Tell Mom. Hello, and welcome to No Dribble,
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: the podcast where we talk about netball, but we talk
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: about so much more. My name is Carolyn Swindell.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: I'm Catherine Cox.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: Hi. Hi, I'm Lizellos and I'm not at a netball
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: carnival this week. I'm at home.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: You're back at home. You had last week For those
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: who yet to catch up, last week, you were in
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Adelaide at a marrist school's netball.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Comp Yes, I was, and let me say the final
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: was on Wednesday and Sacred Heart from Adelaide and Lavala
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: School from Terraalgon in Victoria in the final. It was
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: one of the best games of netball I've seen in
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: a long time. Oh really Yeah, So Lavala won by one.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: And the first day I got there, I thought, my god,
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: this Adelaide team, everyone's just playing for second. But Lavala
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: had like I was like, I'm sure, I wasn't this
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: good when I was seventeen?
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what you probably?
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: Well, I wasn't, but I was just watching and these
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: kids are really athletic, Like their full court play was amazing.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: Both in courts were phenomenal and Lavala won by a
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: goal and it was a great game in netball to watch.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: Sat there and got really into it and I was like,
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: I'd actually paid money to watch this. It was fantastic.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: So what under both teams? It was great?
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: And so how did Evelyn's team end up? Though?
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: So Evelyn's team came about middle of the pack, so
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: they ended up in like there was two divisions, championship
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: and challenges, so they went up into the championship division.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: It was a bit of a tough old run, but
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: they did pretty well. Got a couple of kids in
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: the highly commended, including my niece.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: So oh already.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so it was a really good week. But I've
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: got to say, like this is just a little a microcosm, right,
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: it's seventeen Catholic schools from around Australia. The talent on
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: display was unreal.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: And then you were home for like a heartbeat and
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: you had another carnival on the weekend.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Well then old daughter dead.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so well we didn't have to play rugby Friday
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: night or she didn't have to play, so we went
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: to watch my son playing rugby and then we played.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: She played netball on Saturday. We had a game and
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: then off to a carnival yesterday and it rained. But
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: if you don't play in the rain on the North Coast,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: you don't play.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Oh my god. That is a lot, though, isn't it.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: It is a lot because the carnivals for you are
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: not close to home either, are they. So you had
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: to get in the car and travel again on Sunday.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're driving about an hour and a half. But
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: do you remember when you were that age, you could
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: like you were the ever ever what is it called
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: the ever ready bunny? You just go and go and
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: go like you didn't care. It's only when you're old
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: like Cassi, you go, oh, I need a day off.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: And you know when I felt that more than anything
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: is when I saw Casey Corporal run out the court
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: for the Giants on the weekend, which we will talk about,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: but every part of me hurt watching her running onto
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the court and thinking, oh my god, three kids, lady,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: you're a freak.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you were thirty eight when you were retired.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: She's sounding a little bit older than you were when
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: you were retired.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: That is true. It's funny because I don't know how
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: many people have asked you if you're coming out of
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: retirement off the back of this. I've had it like
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: three or four times. I said, Yeah, if I was
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: still her age, I would have totally come out of
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: retirement because I'd only retired not even a year before that.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Certainly not now.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: However, what's she been doing for the six years?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Well, she works at a gym, so she's at the
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: gym every day, so the base fitness has been good.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: She's been playing social netball and was actually part of
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: the World Indoor Championships which New Zealand won. That was
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: last year or the start of this year, so she's
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: been on court. But it's a completely different obviously level
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: of their ball. And funny because Julie, so this is interesting.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Julie Ranger on Tuesday, Well she threw the rod out
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: trying to get a bite on Tuesday, to which the
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: initial response from Casey was absolutely not understandably, So Jules
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: persisted a little bit because, as Casey said in an
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: interview before the game, Julie's one of those people you
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: can't say no.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: To how did Julie know to reach out to her? Though,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: I mean to, oh, who can I think of? Let
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: me get someone who's retired six years ago, and you
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: know she's good to go.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, she no doubt had a list of experienced
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: players and Casey was on there. So she put the
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: feelers out on Tuesday, got a hard note to start with,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: and then she she told me she ended up getting
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: a what would it entail? From Casey? And she's like, right,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I've got up. I'm going to pull her in now.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: So on Wednesday she was on a plane, and then
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: on Thursday she was on the court training track, and
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: then obviously Sunday the game. But I saw her just
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: prior to the game on Sunday, gave her a big huggles,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: all excited, and I said, how are you going and
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: she said, yeah good. I'm actually like it's been good.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: It's been a whirlwind, but I'm excited to be here.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: And I said, how did you go on your first
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: session on Thursday when you got to the team, And
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: she's like, no, it was actually okay, Like I don't
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: feel too far off the pace. But she said, the
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: thing that saw the most have a guess which part
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: of her She said it was her core r. Yeah,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: just from like twisting and having to land and be strong.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: She said that of everything, that was the part that
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: was really tender, which you know you can imagine.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I was going to say a pelvic floor must that's.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Too after three young kids.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Looked great, but it was just interested to look at
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: her and go that wisdom doesn't go away. The fitness
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: might not be as I thought. She did bloody great job,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: but you know, the netball wisdom that she brought. It
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: was fantastic and great to see Erin O'Brien move into
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: gold offense and for the two of them to play
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: together and really give Sophie Yarbon and Kira Kia Austin
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: a run for their money. It was great.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: I know you said that Julie had a less a
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: message from former Diamonds goalkeeper before me Killye Devy on
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Friday night. She was very upset that her and I
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: hadn't got a call. I mean, kill six and I'm
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: early fifties, but like you know, Julie didn't you never know,
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: I mean my phone didn't ring.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: You just want the writer refusal. It's going to be contemplating.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: No, we just wanted to be able to share memes
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: of the Golden.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Girls thank you for being a friend, which was that funny.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: Yes, Catherine was part of the chat to and we
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: were just like, you know, sending memes of you know,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: old women in leotards going oh my god, to be asked.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I used to have, you know, back in the day
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: when they had like aerobics was big, and they had
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: their leotards that had wore g string ones but you
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: wore them over the top of your bike pants. Yes,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: I used had one of those.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: I am not surprised you had that.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: I'm not surprised.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Did you have leag warmers as well?
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, that was that was a bit
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: before my time. But anyway, how good too. Was heritage
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: around while we're talking about stuff happening on the weekend.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: So obviously I think all the clubs pretty much are
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: across this sort of stuff right now. They're pretty good
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: at their looking after their alumni. But the Swifts had
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: heritage around and Sydney sadly, Elizabeth, you couldn't get down there,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: but they had all of the old players there and
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: they had function beforehand and all got to go watch
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: the game and have some photos with each other on
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: the court, meet the Swifts, all that sort of stuff.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: It's really great and I love that, you know, so
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: many of the clubs are doing it, and Brinnie Aikle's
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: been one of the best, I think in that making
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: sure all of the current players know who's come before them. Apparently,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: right throughout the week, in the lead up to Heritage
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Weekend Round Weekend, they had been watching clips of all
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: the old Swifts of playing. Yeah. I thought, oh my god,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: was it black and white?
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: They would have been looking at that going man. The
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: game was slow backman. But I do think it's interesting
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: because last year it became apparent how important acknowledging your
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: history is. Because when the Swifts were going through that
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: rough patch, all the old girls went to Heritage Round
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: and it was on a Sunday afternoon, and we all
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: went and had a drink at a bar afterwards near
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: the courts, and some of the Swifts came back, and
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: you know, without breaking confidence, they all said to Briany,
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: how great it was to be able to speak to
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: us and see that we still love them, even though
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: they were in the middle of a really rough trot
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: and they weren't going to make finals. It was going
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: to be a difficult year. They felt that that was
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: really important. We weren't just there for the good times
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: and saying yeah, we're with you when you win, but
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: when things are bad, you know they're still you know,
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: we're still part of that club, We're still part of
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: that heritage. And it was really it was an interesting
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: perspective that I hadn't considered that. You know, that's the
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: value of your ex players, bringing them back and seeing
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: that you know that you're still part of the same
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: club they support whether you're winning or losing.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: And it's interesting because I know the Swan had their
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: twenty year reunion two of the Premiership this weekend at
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: the Swan's game, and I think Jude Bolton and somebody
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: else addressed the guys before the game and they got pumped,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: absolutely smashed on the weekend. But I think Jude's posted
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: something recently saying, well, clearly that pre game four.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Tough though, isn't it for the newer clubs. I mean,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: obviously the MAVs are eighteen months old, they're barely toddlers,
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: and you know the Giants established twenty seventeen, they can't
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: draw on that, and you know that is an incredibly
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: valuable thing to be getting those sorts of perspectives from
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: players who have been through dark times too and go, yep,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: don't this is this will pass.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: And that's true. But for those younger clubs, the players
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: who are there now, they're the ones with the opportunity.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: They're the culture for twenty years time. You know that
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: they'll come back and it will be fantastic for them,
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: So there's that real opportunity for them to set that
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: up as well.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: So good, Hey, Elizabeth, can I big thank you for
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: your key word in word as well?
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Oh yes, that's a few people who had a good
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: ready good.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: Do you know what's funny?
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: Though?
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: I got it, and I did it really early in
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: the morning, it was like six am, and then I
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: was stinging, stinging to set. Look, we've got a little
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: chat for you know, if you're not if you're not
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Caroline or Catherine or me, you need to know there's
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: little chat and we often share our word or results
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: when we're that don't get it at all or we
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: get it into And I was so stinging to put
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: it on there, but I thought I didn't want you
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: to to go, oh yeah, good on you, because we
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: haven't done it yet. So I waited until midday you
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: both came back and you hadn't done it.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: That was the best because they were straight away. We
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: both knew what yours was because we knew a key word.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: But so my question to you now is what's the
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: new first word? Because I'm sport.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: It was and now I'm like, I don't know whether
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: to go and do some research on like what five
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: letter words haven't come up yet so that or whether
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: I go with something like audio or ocean. I'm still
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: and do you guys have any any suggestions.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know mine's reads because I just feel like
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: it's good common letters and a couple of deeply ironic
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: and you know I love to.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: That's what I would do if I wasn't doing word exactly.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I've got another question for you, though, Where do you
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: do your wordle be honest?
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Oh, like, where do I Where do I sit when
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: I do it? Is that where I often do it
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: in the morning, when I'm just lying in bed trying
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: to work myself up to get out of bed, or
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: sitting on the loop. Who doesn't die?
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: It's always for poos, isn't it.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: I feel so differently about you know what?
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: You don't pooh?
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: No, I save connection for poos because you know, I
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: have to sit for a long time and think about connections.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: So oh, yes, connections is hard, can be hard.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Shouldn't be spending more than ten minutes on the toilet you?
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: Why not?
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Well, doctors are telling us that that that is not
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: good for you, So don't don't be sitting there for
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: a long time. You got stuff hanging out your backside
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: that way, This is.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: Not the week to be talking about hanging out the backside.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: I've got a colonoscopy this.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: Week, and or have you had one before?
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, We've got a family history of about cancer. So
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: I'm going to go and get it done.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: So when was the last one? How often do you
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: have to have them done? Now?
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: I should have them maybe five years, but it's been
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: longer than that.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I had one last year, last year or this
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: year because dad's got a bowl cancer. So even though
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not in the fifty plus, I was like, no,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do all the screenings. I'm going to
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: get it done. But the funniest thing was, so they
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: give you your scripts for whatever the drugs are, you've got
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: to get prep yes, that to clean you out. And
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I went into the chemist to get it and ask
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: for it, and he said, has this been prescribed by
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: a doctor? And I said, well, I've done it for fun.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: But then I thought there's probably people that take it
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: to you lose weight or whatever they're trying to do. Yeah,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: I know it didn't occur to me, but I'm like, mate,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: this is not part of my Saturday night party. What
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: are you.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: Thinking eating all the white foods for three days and
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: then pulling tell you oh, anyway, it's you know, I've
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: been dreading this week and I was supposed to have
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: it last year and I put it off because I've
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: been dreading it. I'm like, I just have to do it.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Get it done.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: So good when you get it done, though, But if
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: for those of you who have never had the joy
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: of the movie PREMP, when it's time to go, it's
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: time to go. So I have said in my family
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: my husband had his first one recently. It's like that
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: bathroom is yours. No one can you, no one can
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: go in that. You can't go in there just to
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: do a quick wee. Because if the person needs it.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: They need it that second. There is not ten seconds
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: to spare it is it's happening.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: No time to grab your phone to do your word
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: or No.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: I like to do all of the four that I
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: do together. I'm not talking about the games, not not
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: my bow movements anymore. I do wordle, I do connections,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: I do strands, and then I do the mini crossword
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: and try to beat my timer and like to do
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: all four of them together at the one time.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: So it's quite a chunk of your day. You're putting
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: a sign.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: There, Well, no, she's smart. It's quite a chunk of
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: a day.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: So your new word, we're not. We're not sure what
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: it is. But there were a number of dribblers who
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: got it. So for those of you who didn't hear
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: Liz's word on word or used to be sport and
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: she has shared that in the past, and then she
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: So all three of us got it in one the day,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: Li's got it in one, You and I got it
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: because we pay attention.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Something satisfying about the word genius coming up too, isn't it?
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: Did you screenshot it? We should have? I screenshoted the
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: three of us in the chat sharing it. But yeah,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: we had some dribblers who also got it as a
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: result of having listened to this podcast.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: So you're welcome.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Dreams can come true. So yours is reads, mine is.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Heart, and you're an audio or an ocean.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: No, I used to be CPR, and now that's because
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: that th, H and R I think are more common
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: and useful letters than a pe.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, so good to know your heart.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: Maybe I might go dream. You just said dreams can't
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: come true, so maybe should go dream?
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: Nice? Nice?
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, so dream and heart?
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: All right, what do you cover it?
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: And you send that to me on reads read?
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: So, speaking of dreams coming true, I, as you know,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Saturday night, I wasn't able to go to the Swifts game,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: but I did watch it on delay without having I
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: went into a total blackout, so I didn't know what happened,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: and man, that was worth doing. But I watched it
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: at at home. But I was at a hip hop
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: competition on Saturday night, which I've moaned about them having
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: kids stuff on a Saturday night. But yes, we came second,
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: thank you much. Yeah, kids did a great job, and
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: it was it was so it was so joyful. It
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: was just such a wonderful thing to be there for.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: But they had said it was instead for the dance
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: competition with a whole bunch of different disciplines. So they
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: did hip hop, and then before we got the adjudication
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: on that, we had to listen to another watch another
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: another group or it was on.
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: I was watching the Lightning Game on my phone. In
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: between they were playing music.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Now, this is a children's dance competition, and they played
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: that song Stacy's mom.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes, I love.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: That he's a mom, but Stacy's mom And if you
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: haven't heard this song, that the singer is going out.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: With Stacy's mom's daughter.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: So Stacy, but then he realizes, well I love Stacy
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: and then Stacy's mum. And because she's coming out dressed
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: in a towel in front of her boyfriend, her daughter's boyfriend,
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: it's so inappropriate. It's it's it's all the levels of
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: poor parenting, pedophilia. I mean, it's it's very catchy song Fountains.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: What's her name? Rachel? She was an Aussie or a
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: key We model in the film clip do you remember
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: she was dating Rod Stewart.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Rachel Rachel Hunter?
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Okay, was she the mother.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: She was the mother of the film.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: She was high, she.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Would have had a New Zealand accent. She wouldn't have said,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: probably have been Stacy's mom. No, yeah, and I just
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: thought of all the inappropriate songs and maybe we should
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: pull together because it's imagine playing that at a netball carnival.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: It's the same sort of thing. You know, what about
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: that girl, Doom Doom dun.
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: You will be a warmer.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: I like big butts.
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: And again, we should be thinking carefully about our playlists
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: for events where children are around. Maybe we should make
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: a no dribble songs that you should not play at
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: the netball carnival playlist?
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, do that? Do that? They'll and share that please,
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: I'd love that.
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: And I want the dribblers to pick contributing to it.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'll put those two.
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: Well, we've started with three, there, haven't we, So.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, there you go. You're welcome. Now. There's been plenty
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: of dribblers too that have jumped on the Dubai chocolate bandwagon.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: I've noticed, But I have a query.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: I was hoping we would go one episode without talking.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: No, no, well, we're not talking about that so much
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: as I want to notice people's storage of it, because
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: everyone's saying it's got to go on in the fridge.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I don't do chocolate in the fridge, dat you No,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: I like, I like it. Of all the things, it's
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: got to be room tamp.
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: I don't know chocolate in the fridge. Well, I put
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: my dark chocolate in the freezer and you get it
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: out of it's like a dessert. It's like so good.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she's got good teeth obviously.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Well that's because I drank a lot of milk.
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: But but Gord, he told me to put the Dubai
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: chocolate in the fridge.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Shield to that it's more crunch in the middle or something.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: I didn't like it. Can't really matter, No matter fridge
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: is going to help my opinion of it. But now
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: I do put dark chocolate in the freezer and just it.
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: It's good.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Okay, But you're in the cabin too with me. You're
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: like the room tamp. Yeah, like just not nor melts
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: in your mouth straight away.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: It goes too quick, like if you go from frozen
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: like it lasts a bit longer.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's sense in that. Interesting Right Now, we tackle
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: the big issues here on. I know I've got I've
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: got that done off my chair.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: What about tim tams then freezer, fridge?
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Oh no, definitely cupboard as well. Oh yeah, because I
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: like them to be already kind of melty, a bit
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: like ready to eat face.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: How can we keep tim Tams in the fridge. I'm
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: just trying to think. We don't know. It's been a
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: while since we've had tim Tams in the house, but
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: I think we keep tim I don't know. Maybe they're
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: in the cupboard last put them.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: No, Well, that's true saying it doesn't really matter. The
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: only thing I do put in the fridge is condensed milk.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: It's got to be thicker so you can get the
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: spoon in the tea.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: I have not had condensed milk in maybe three decades.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: And it's okay, it's all right for me to not
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: have it, like I just that's such a thing from
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: like I do have it either. What do you mean
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: I can't buy it because.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: The whole team. No, I've not had it in probably
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: a couple of years.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: I reckon. Well, back when you lived with us, Catherine,
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: I was sponsored and he that was and I could
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: go out to the their shop, which was in their building,
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: and I could get whenever I wanted, and so Catherine
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: used to say, get condensed milk. So I used to
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: bring home boxes of condensed milk. And one morning I
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: got up and I knew that Katherine had a big
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: night out because on the counter there was two filli
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: of fish wrappers and one of those tubes of condensed
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: milk that was such dry. I was like, yeah, I
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: think Katherine might have got home been a bit tired
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: and emotional that night. So that's when you're probably at
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: your condensed milk peak.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it might have been a fatty boomsticks that couple
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: of seasons I was living with you, with all the
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: condensed milk floating around?
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Are you still a feeling a fish person?
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: No?
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: I don't. I couldn't even tell you the last time
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: I had macers.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: Right, well, that no gross.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: I think if I was going to have anything now,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: it would be a Junior Burger. They're still the call
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: on that. Yeah, it's just the cheeseburger with it like cheese.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, just a little tiny thing they always
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: it just always makes me feel greasy and gross after
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: I've eaten something like that. But yeah, When was the
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: last time you had any fast food?
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm not virtuous. I've had fast food. I don't
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: know recently. I can't tell you exactly when, but I don't.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: I don't when I go to McDonald's, I'll change my
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: order every time. But the reason I'm asking is that
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: I had a big argument. I was forced to defend
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: my position as not hating the filid of fish with
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: a friend of mine, Jill, who is my age, the
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: mother of one of my daughter's bestie, and my son,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: and they were both coming at me. It's disgusting. Why
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: would you eat that?
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: I used to love the fill of fish.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: It's just a giant fish finger.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exactly what I said. They said it's not
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: real fish. Of course it's not. Do you think the
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: chicken nuggets are real?
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: That's real stuff.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: I'm not there for a farm to table experience, like.
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: You know what you're getting, right, so, but but it's
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: like fish tacos so unusual, but they're delicious, delicious.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Have you heard what's in a thick shake?
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: I don't want to know. No, you do not. Well, yeah,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: and I remember all these rumors going around here. Is
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: it pink fat? Or something.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: You know, I'm not I reckon that to be blown up.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do too. That's why I was wondering, is
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: it true or are these urban myths? But before we'
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: move entirely off biscuits, I've got a house full of
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: bloody biscuits at the moment because there's a fundraising drive
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: at school.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: So you oh, I need to give you money for them.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: For attacking some off my hands. This was not a
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: reminder of that, but it's like these. I haven't seen
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: the food fundraiser for the school for years. You know,
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: we've had the tea towel, the entertainment book. I was
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: obviously plenty of events and things. But when I was
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: in high school, we used to have the chocolate fundraisers. Yes,
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: it was such good chocolate, and I don't like I mean,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: I'm looking for it on the internet the other day
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: and I don't think it exists anymore real.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: That's interesting. But because the biscuits I love. I love
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: that as an option, those little paths, but they're all
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: individually wrapped in there. I thought it was just going
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: to be one little packa it's not a big pack
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: of biggies. But I've nailed them. I took them to
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: the game and left them on the commentary desk, and they.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: You are such a feeder, Catherine, working with you, you
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: always spring stuff that we shouldn't eat. Yeah, look at
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: you now you've got a bag of what licorice? Yeah?
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: At the table.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're trying to, you know, live a healthy, clean life.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: And then Catherine turns up. We've got like everything and
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: you maybe that.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: Were two weeks ago and she promised me cake for
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: the no Dribble birthday and she ate it herself and
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: didn't share any So I thought we were having a
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: fight then that she hadn't declared. But apparently we're all good.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: I'm making up with these thoroughly liquorice all sorts of
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: Are they jam or not?
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: I appreciate the gesture, but can I tell you what
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: we're really?
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: Really, I like licorice. I don't like licorice all sorts.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: I like the salty licorice's I'm a pain.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: A salty liquoric.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: First, what do you mean?
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: What's salty liquid? What is salty licorice? I've never heard
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: of that.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: Do you know salty Dutch?
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: No, I've never heard of that it's really good.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Can you get that here obviously somewhere.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: Imagine, So yeah, all right, I'll track I'll track some
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: down for you. I reciprocate. But yeah, obviously it was
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: the no Dribble birthday on the same day as Barb
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Jervis's birthday, and she had a bit of a birthday
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: celebration at the Swifts game on Saturday night. So I
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: now am at the bottom of this. So the Shamrocks
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: organized this for her daughter mel and the Shamrocks Netball
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: Club organized for Bob to deliver the ball out to
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: play at the start of the second quarter. And she
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: didn't know anything about it, apparently, so and of course
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: she she very diligently walked out, handed the ball over
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: walked as soon as she got off court, though she
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: starts dancing and then high five's Brian the acle, but
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: totally within the rules. It's like she did her job.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: She did there was no there was no razzle dazzle
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: until she'd stepped over that line.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: I did feel like she had a bit of a
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: strut going on on the way out, though I did.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: She was living it. Who else was living it? At
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: the Swifts game was Patrick.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so you went to a dance show too.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: I was dying. So I saw him before the game
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: and some of the Swifts people, and they told me
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: that this was all planned and gave us heads up.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: But they said, we haven't mentioned it to anybody else,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: so don't say anything to anyone, because we just wanted
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: to be a surprise. Anyway, I was it was three
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: quarter time. When did that happen? Three quarter time? I think?
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: And I was behind the I was on sideline on
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: that game, and I was behind the Thunderbird's bench listening
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: intently because when they come back out of the break,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: I'm supposed to give them something about what had just
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: happened in the huddle. Anyway, I see Patrick get onto
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: the court and then start to move closer like he's
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: gonna bust into the dancing. Was like, screw the Thunderbird's bench,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch. So I just walked away and I
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: just pretend I can't hear them.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Anyway, because it was quite funny. He was just sort
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: of loitering near the edge top and then went and
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: joined like it was a flash mob.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: It was sore and the crowd went Banana's.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: So on a scale of bananas, more or less than
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: when Robert Irwin showed up at game.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Oh tough, tough, close to more, I reckon, yeah, because
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: it's always loud. It's loud in that stadium to it
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: because it's the design of it. It's quite echo we
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: but it was very very loud in there on the weekend,
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: particularly during the Swift's game. It was high decibel sort
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: of ear piercing stuff.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Well, it was pretty bloody exciting.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: It's unreal.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Yes, Okay, So before we move too far away from
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: word and connections and strands and the mini crossword, there
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: is I have a new obsession online. Have you seen this?
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: HCF has HCF has this team Health thing, which I've
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: got to say, I don't really understand it, but they
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: have an online game that you can play now to
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: get your score for your health. And so first of all,
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: there's a quick reactions thing on your phone that you've
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: got to tap the each netball that lights up, and
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: they've got sort of nine or ten of them across
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: the court, and then you've got thirty seconds to do that.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: And then there's a matching pairs one cards one which
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: I don't match. One of the one of the in
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: game activations at the Giants yesterday. So you've got to
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: do your pairs there, and then there's a third one
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: that is escaping me at the moment. But yeah, it's
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: a memory. No, no, it's it's it's netball. It's sun
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: Come Super memory one.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: No.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and so you can compete with yourself and get
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: a higher score. So obviously I am spending forever on
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: this damp, tapping the little flashing netballs and the turning
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: the cards. I'm trying to get my score. Do you
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: the app for this or is it just on the line?
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: Was just a link I think through from long Facebook
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: and you can win a package for the Grand Final.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: So but it's more for me that it's like, first,
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: first of all, my score was good, and it's like,
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: screw good. And so now I've only got up to
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: very good. I haven't managed. I don't know what is
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: maybe above that. Maybe very good is the top. I
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: doubt it. Imagine there's an excellent thing. But yeah, so
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: that's that is my current unhealthy obsession at the moment,
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: which is now adding to the hours that you get
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: your screen time report every week and go, oh my god,
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: I'm destroying my lie what I.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Was about to say. Do you know what I'm hearing?
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: You're not getting much else done? Inday, No, But this
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: AGCF Team Health score, everybody is a little perplexed about,
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: and certainly it's on our Facebook page of what is it?
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: What does it mean? Now? I should be able to
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: tell you, but I'm still trying to get my head
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: around it as well. In a nutshell, So there's three
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: different categories, So there's physical, mental, and support, and each
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: of those categories has got different stats under it and
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: they calculate those add them together. That gives you an
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: overall score based on last year's season. When these scores
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: were over one hundred and eighty, there was about eighty
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: percent of wins last year, so that the one hundred
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: and eighty is kind of the magic mark based on
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: last year's results. So in your physical category, it counts deflections,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: count blocks and rebounds. In the mental one, it's goals
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: missed goals, So obviously your goals, you subtract your missed
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: goals and then your gains. And then support is all
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: the stuff that a team would do to help each
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: other out, so it's assists and it's pickups, so you're
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: roughly looking at trying to get sixty points in each
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: of those categories. It adds up to you one eighty.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: So it's interesting because they obviously fluctuate a heap during
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: the game, but also every week they're very different and
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: that's how you get your averages. So on the weekend
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: before we started the Swifts Thunderbirds game, the Thunderbird's health
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: score was higher than the Swifts. But that's because they'd
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: had a great week the week before in some department.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: But yeah, it's interesting, but that's what it's based on.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: If that gives anyone any sort of clarification.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: Good, I think that's really interesting, right, And it's not
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: a predictive thing in terms of like won't go out
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: and go well, we need to get above.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: One ad oh god, not thinking about that.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: But it also but when you're a spectator, you can
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: see how it's not just one thing. It's actually a
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: lot of different things that come together that that make
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: up the win. And it's just really interesting to see
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: the interaction of those things. You know, sometimes when you
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: break it down, you might be you might over index
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: on one thing, and so I take you to go
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: back and say, well, it's really obvious where our improvement is.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: And whilst we want to keep that over index there,
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: we want to move these other two up. So I think,
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: I mean, I love the way you can play with
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: stats to tell a story, and I think it helps
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: you tell the story through the course of the game
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: too in commentary. So you know, the net points came
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: out when when we were commentating, and people will be like, oh,
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: what's that all about? But it actually just helps you
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: tell a story. It doesn't. It doesn't mean that that's
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: how you pick your player of the match or whatever.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: But when you have an idea of who's done what,
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: sometimes you know you look at the net points and
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: you go, oh, well, I thought player has been best
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: on court, but she hasn't scored high in net points
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: because the stuff that she's done well, which you can
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: see because you've played the game, isn't a stat, right,
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: and it might be just working the ground or whatever, right,
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: So like it, but you can it actually just helps
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: you understand who's playing well and what's happening in a game.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: So I actually think those things are really useful to
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: help you tell the story. So the actually of health
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: check when it comes up I'm like, okay, well that's interesting.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: That helps me understand the story of this game.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: And it takes time for these things to become a
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: bit enough cosin't so it's like it will over if
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: they stick with it. You know, hopefully next season we
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: will all be more like, Okay, now I understand what
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: I mean. That was a very helpful summary.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: Again.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: Good, and maybe when I'm obsessed with this game, which
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: probably should give a break to maybe I'm aiming for
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: sixty points in each category. There you go, that's maybe.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: That's that's how they assess it.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: I'll bring cake next week and I'll get my sixty
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: points support.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: I've heard this before, though, Well we're over you for
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: some cake anyway to my best Enough about the cake,
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about the Let's talk about some of the games.
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about that Swift Thunderbird's game that was so
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: I just want to point out I was only a
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: couple of points from Tipping Genius on the weekend, so
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: it was a really high. We had about seventy five
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: percent of tipp has got Bingo on the weekend all
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: four games, right, not U, Liz and not me? We
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: both got two?
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: Did I?
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I've lost interest in watching you and.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: I don't know what I've got either, because I put
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: mine in and I've left them. I'm just going with
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: the flow though. So how many people got it.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: Like three hundred and fifty four pingo?
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so how many people got right on the money
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: with the margins.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. But our tipper who
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: wins the Valor voucher this week is Lindy Tips. We
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: had quite a few people there who were We met
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: a few yesterday. It could be me for me and
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: they both tipped Fever to win. So but for those
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: who are wondering if people have picked the same obviously
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: there are going to be people who will pick the
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: same margins. Whoever puts it in first is what it
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: comes down to as to who gets the winner. And
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: I did make a promise to follow something up. The
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: way you get four points, I lied last week. You
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: get all the away games if you don't put your
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: tips in. But if, as last week was, it was
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: all away games, you can't get bingo. You can get
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: four points because that's the default, but you can't get
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: the bonus point for because that is for correctly tipping
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: all of the gamest slackers extra point anyway, So I
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: was nearly a genius on that Thunderbird Swift's game. But
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: oh gosh, how exciting, so.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: Good, so good for such a long part of it
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: as well, because the last time they played each other,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: the Thunderbirds were out of the blox and won that
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: first quarter exactly the same as what happened on the weekend,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: and then the Swifts just came back at them straight away.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: But it just took a lot longer in this game,
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: right down to the wire. Teabirds up at eight at
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: halftime and then still up at by three at three
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: quarter time, and probably some of the changes may be
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: made for the Adelaide Thunderbirds took a bit of sting
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: out of their side, so particularly Hannah Petty when she
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: went to the bench just after halftime. But she wasn't well,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: which none of us. During during the week, she'd spent
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: a bit of time vomiting, and apparently she had a
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: little vomit during the game as well. She was amazing
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: out of her life, I know, right like she even
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: said so. She was on pivot yesterday and she even
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: said to them she might need to have a tactical
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: vomit and feel unsick and feel sick. Sorry every week.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Because she was out, she got her highestness and net
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: points or net points whatever they're called these days. In
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: the first half of that game.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: Wow, she was amazing, Like, yeah, she's just Eddie everywhere,
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: wasn't she through the course of well while she was
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: on court. Isn't that interesting? Though? Sometimes when you like
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: you don't feel well, you play better because you don't
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: have time to get worried or anxious or overthink things.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: Just like I was going to get out of here
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: and run.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: So unlike unlike the three or four of us. When
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: we're in Adelaide before a semi final Maymber, we all
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: got poisoning.
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: Did We had to have needles?
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: And oh it was it food poison or was it
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: a twenty four hour flu?
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: Oh no, this wasp athletes. I'll have you know.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: That was postseason. We'd get the shardonnay flu. But no, no,
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: And I remember, like Jan Troyo manager having to get
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: the doctor in and we had needles and oh god,
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: that was horrible. Yeah, there was either food no, none
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: of us food poisoning or a virus. But we were
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: so sick and it might have been.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: There was at least four of us in the starting
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: seven that were up all night, and.
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: None of us played anywhere near as good as hand
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: A Petty played on the weekend. So no, yeah, she was, Yeah,
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: she was phenomenal. I thought it was a ripping game.
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: And I just think the Thunderbirds defense line is a
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: bit underrated. Like you know, when Shimia Sterling was announced
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: that she wasn't going to fit the season with them,
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: we all went, oh, well that's the Thunderbirds, but you
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: just see them like they all we.
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: Didn't all do that. Some of us said, no, no.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: Well no they were. They're just like they're just they
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: work so well as a unit. They were confusing the space.
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: It was, Yeah, they did really well.
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: Wilson, She's an unbelievable athlete. I don't think I wrote
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: them off, but I certainly was like, no, they won't
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: get a three peep, They're no chance. But on the
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: on the weekend, I have changed my tune for sure,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: and it is definitely back on the table for me.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: Latanna is incredible given she was She's five centimeters short,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: so it's not a huge amount compared to Grace but
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: her elevations probably about fifty five centimeter is better.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: She's unbelievable and the work has to be done out
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: the front right. And I thought that the Thunderbirds, you know,
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: frontliner defenders, did that really well on Saturday. They just
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: slowed the boards.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: I don't know if either of you heard when Ryanie
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: Akle was talking to talking to camera. I think it's
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: amazing that we can hear from the coaches during the game.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: It's it's insane. So we heard from Tanner Robs and
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: then we heard from Briany Akle and the Swifts were
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: down then, and I just I really love the way
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: she communicated. She said, they're not doing their jobs at
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: the moment, so she was she was direct without being harsh,
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: you know. But it's like, look, let let's not sugarcoat this.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: In order for us to turn this around, we need
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: to be real in our language about what's actually happening
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: there on court. And it was such a great lesson
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: in leadership is that it's like you don't always have
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: to be just saying soft, gentle, the nice words, that
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: it's actually sometimes having the truth spoken in a respectful
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: and gentle way is going to be a whole lot
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: more effective. It was so great.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: She also pinpointed too, though, that she talks to players
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: a certain way depending on how she knows they will
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: take the feedback. So she was quite critical of Helen
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: House being very direct to Helen, very direct, but she's like,
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: I know that she can handle that. That fires her
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: up to everybody, which I think is just such an
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: important piece of the puzzle, isn't It's the same with
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: any player and a team if you're a leader, which
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: obviously you'll know exceptionally well as you can't treat everyone
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: the same because people don't react the same, do they.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I used to put rockets up.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Everybody, true, and it did work for everyone exactly.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: Some people hate it, but no, you're right, and I
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: think that's good leadership, is good coaching, right to understand
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: who reacts to what, and I think players react like
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: younger players now react probably differently like back when we
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: were playing, if a coach wanted to give you a
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: kick in the butt, they give you a kick in
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: the butt. And whereas now I think things are a
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: bit more Coaches have to be a bit more sophisticated
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: about how they deliver feedback. I think Briany does a
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: really good job. You can see it. I also thought
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: with her, just looking at her interview, she was really
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: she was not anxious, like this was a really tight game,
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: and was really quite relaxed. And I think that's a
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: coach who knows that you know, she's done everything she can.
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: You can just go to let the players deliver it
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: if they can.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: But do you know what too, though, Like even if
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: they had lost, as I said to her a few
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: times in the postgame and and also the press conference,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: it's good to have a loss or to be challenged.
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: You not one of those really good seasons. I'm just
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: a big time yeah.
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: Anyway, they've got They've got Fever this week, and I
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: think that's going to be a massive game as well.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: M Cracker, I reckon that might be a Grand Final
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: preview Actually.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah maybe Thunderbirds like Fever. Thunderbird Swift seem to be
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: sort of the pacesetters at the moment, don't they. But
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: you sort of feel like Lightning.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: Two weeks ago, I thought it was going to be
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: a Lightning Swift Grand Final, and then I saw them play.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: You don't like, you don't know what's going to happen
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: when you get your top four. That's like anything can
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: happen in the finals, and you know.
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing. You only have to win one
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: game at a time.
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly right.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: And there's plus I think this second half is going
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: to be so different because they half of them hadn't
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: seen really LAMBD and they hadn't seen Wiki, particularly for
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: the Swifts. And then obviously there's other sides that have
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: got new players, but not as new as probably those
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: two that now they've had a good look at and
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: they've had a good touch on for the first time,
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: and they will readdress how they play at the second time.
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: Like that bottom four five Birds, Giants, Vixen's and Mavericks
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: like they're out of the four at the moment, so
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: they'll be pushing. But even if they don't make the
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: top four, I reckon, they'll all have a really big
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: say in what the top four will be. Yeah, Like
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: you know, you see really improved performances and you're like,
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: I reckon, we're gonna have a really tight second half
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: of the season. And I think those teams in the
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: bottom four, I don't think that'll be I don't think
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: that'll stay and I reckon we'll see some of them
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: really get up for big performances.
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: So I would like the crowd at the Lightning games
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: to come and train the crowd at a Giants game,
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: because I was in the in the crowd yesterday and
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: the Giants crowd is incredibly supportive. They're very angry at
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: the umpire quite frequently. There's lots of feedback game, but
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: there's no there's no momentum in their cheering. It's sort
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: of it's it's up and then it's down. Lightning even
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: when they're behind, as they were with with Swifts in
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: that game, and they clearly weren't going to win, but
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: they came home in that in that fourth quarter with
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: a bunch of super shots. The Lightning crowds are going
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: ape shit, you know, whatever's going on. They're behind and
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: and you think, oh this is We're obviously at a
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: Grand Final and the and the Lightning are winning it.
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: But you know the and I know Daryl Milton has
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: has mentioned this on Facebook that Giants need some good
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: hype people. I will acknowledge the under under eights from
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: Bringelly Netball Club who were doing their absolute best to
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: keep it going through through the whole thing. They were.
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: You know what we need is seven year old girls
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: leading us in cheering through this thing. And because I
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: think Amy Slager used to play for that club, but
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: they were all up there in their little green uniforms
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: and I'm glad I wasn't sitting near them because I
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: was quite a way away and they were lowed, but geez,
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: they were good.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: They brought the spirit Amy Catherine Slager, you mean that's cute, yes,
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: But the Giants game, let's have a chat about that
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: because obviously devastation around Jodiel is it an ACL tear.
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: So she had surgery on Friday, which is great. She's
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: through the surgery. She's now on the path to getting
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: a rehab all done and getting back onto the court.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: I know it's going to take a while, but to
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: bring in Casey Corpora, Julie Fitzgerald and the Giants have
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: copped a task about why you'd go for a retired
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: player five years retired to it's a long time instead
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: of a pathways player. And we asked Julie that yesterday
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: just before the game, and her response is spot on.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: So she's already got a very young team at youngest
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: team in the competition to put another twenty year old
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: in the mix is not I don't think it's They've
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: still got to win games, right, and it's not helpful,
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: so she said last year. Last week, when Jodi and
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Ward came off injured, Jamie Lee Price was the only
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: one on court over the age of twenty three. That
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: is a very very young side. Not to say they
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: can't get the job done, and it's great experience, but
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: they still need to be learning every week, and they
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: still need to be pushing and trying to win games.
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: So that's why she went for Casey to bring some
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: of that experience in, and you could see it. She's
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: definitely not back at her best, but in all of
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: the huddles, Erin O'Brien was like a sponge just taking
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: all this information in. At one point they had a
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: huddle and Casey was directing to the defense end and Landrigan,
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: who was their youngest recruit who debuted the week before,
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: was on the sideline, and I caught her just staring
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: at Casey with stars in her eyes. Players like that,
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: to be able to have someone of her experience come in,
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: you can't put an amount on that, can you.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: She was sensational. I just thought her presence on court
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: and the motivation that she gave the plays, and to me,
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: it looked like Eron O'Brien was doing what we saw
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: Latania Wilson do the week after Shimiya Stirling Humphreys left,
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: going this door is open for me, I am I'm
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: not stepping through it, I am running through it. I
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: thought Erin O'Brien had a sensational game. I thought Casey
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: was magnificent. It was great, and I loved seeing Matisse
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: leather Barrow out there for I think she was there
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: for twol sixty minutes. Yeah, that was great. And she's he.
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: Called her record for supershots. Yeah great, unreal.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, ripping game, ripping game.
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: I know that's my expert commentary. I was just thinking
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: about Casey Corpua and it would be like having a
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: coach out there. Yes, So I'm just thinking about like
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: when I was I think twenty I was or twenty two.
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: I was in the New South Wales team with Kelly
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: Devrey and I'm normally I was normally a goalkeeper, but
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: I had to play gold defense and Keeley was behind me,
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: and just the amount I learned from sitting out in
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: front of her was amazing and I was thinking about
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: Aaron O'Brien. It would be like having your own personal
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: coach behind you chirping at you through the game. I
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: think that, Yeah, it's hard, isn't it, because you go, well,
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: you know why at the Giants bring through young athletes
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: all they are, there's a heap of them they are,
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: so you know maybe and the thing you have to
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: think about as a coach is, yeah, you can give
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: a young player the opportunity, but you also have to
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: be careful that they don't get destroyed because you put
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: them out and they lose their confidence because they get
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: smacked by you know, you know diamonds players who are
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: who have something to prove. So I just think you've
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: got to you've got to weigh all that up as
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: a coach. And yeah, we'd all like more opportunities for
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: Australian born players, but you know, these coaches have also
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: got their KPIs that they've got to you know, they've
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: got to a chair and they've got to get wins,
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: and they've got to think about all these other things
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: as well.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: It was Joe Harton injured.
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: No interesting, Yeah, she was there, she warmed up, she
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: was all part of it. But again I think just
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: another really disheartening performance from the Giants in that they're
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: in the competition, they're in the Challenge. Every week it's
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: been the same. There's maybe one quarter that lets them down,
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: so whilst they're on the bottom of the ladder, it's
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: not a true indication of their season, I don't think,
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: which is really tough for their fans and we've heard them,
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: you know, arcing up about it all. But that was
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: a classic example. They were only down by two a
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: three quarter time to a team that was in the
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Grand Final last year. It was a bloody good game,
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: just unfortunate that lost their way a bit at the end.
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: And they've got young players. They'll get it all together
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: and when they do, they'll have a massive say in
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: what the top four looks like.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: Mm hmm, yeah, So what they had Hope White out there,
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: who is not twenty, Aaron O'Brien who is twenty maybe
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure how old how old she is, but
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: Matisse leather Barrow is quite young, and Sophie Sophie Dwyer
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: and I don't know, Amy Sliger is not ready for
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: a superannuation yet either young too, is she?
• 47:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: Two twenty three like these are. It's it's amazing and
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: it's quite exciting actually, And Giants fans hang in there
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: because I don't know. That's what being a fan is.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: My husband's a paramatter. Eels fans just terrible.
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you've got to stick with that.
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: My son, well, I was. I've been a Penrith fan
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: since I was at school because that was my local
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: team and so I am in rugby league and so
• 47:38
  Speaker 3: I told my son he had to cheer for the
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: Panthers and he thought that the Panthers always one because
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: he's nine and the Panthers have won from the trot
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: and he's learning this year about what it's like to
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: stick with your team. And I'm like, mate, go back
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: to the when they were the Chocolate Soldiers. So you
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: know that you're so right, that is what being a
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: fan is all about. So when you do get success,
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: you really it tastes so good because you know what
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: it's been like.
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: He is ostie ready to ship?
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: Is he? No? He just he just gets upset. You know.
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: When my son chose his NRL team, he chose the
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: RABBITO South Sydney Rabbits because he likes rabbits. And it's
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: like I didn't have the heart to tell him that
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: the rabbit Os used to skin rabbits too, that that
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: was what they were named after. People used to try
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: to stay alive during the depression by skinning rabbits. But anyway,
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: he went along. Pete won something at some corporate events,
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: so they went along to the Grand Final that the
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: rabbit Os were in and got to meet the coach
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: at that stage, McGuire, and go into the sheds and
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: Lewis has got this big signed poster up and that's
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: his first year as a rabbit Os fan. Every year
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: subsequently has been a hollow Oh dude, please don't please
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: don't think this is what it's like supporting a team
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: in any sport. You pick one and you'll have more
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: bad years than good years.
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: But that it's true. And if you jump on during
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: a bandwagon, like, if you jump on the bandwagon during
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: the good years, like, you're really setting yourself up for disappointment,
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: aren't you.
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: Well, this is Pete who's a Paramatta Eels fan and
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: a Warratarz fan and a long suffering fan of many sports.
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: When I got him on board with you are now
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: a Swifts fan. And then last year it was not
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: a good year. He said, have you just given me
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: another losing team? I said, O, hold the faith, this
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: will come good. This is this is an aberration.
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: Oh is he coming to the GF then is he
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: coming down with it? Yeah?
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Well we need we need him to work
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: at the at the function.
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: That is true, but I also need him to be
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: able to find you in the crowd.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: But so Jodian board ACL, ruth ariang ACL. Now this
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: is the thing, isn't it that that with ACL injuries
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: are more prevalent in female athletes than men.
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: Yes, now, I said, you know what, I didn't even
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: know this until towards the end. But so when you're menstruating,
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: apparently your ligaments are far more lax and you're more
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: likely to have an injury.
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: Who knew, Well, certainly not the sports scientists, because they've
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: not bloody studied women until quite recently. They thought, oh,
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: maybe women are different to men, and they're just starting
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: to learn that this whole thing, the ACL is a
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: much more prevalent in female athletes and male for exactly
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: that reason.
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting isn't it. And early pregnancy too, your
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: ligaments get loose, so you know, there's a few things
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: that need to be researched because women aren't just small
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: versions of men. So yeah, but it is it's great
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: that like this light is getting shot. But Catherine, youw
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: and I had no idea.
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: I had no idea. And meanwhile, women aren't small versions
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: of men. Have you seen me? Oh? Speaking of men?
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: Small men's what about the one that came up to
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: me at the gym last week? Now, I put this
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: on my socials and the amount of people that sent
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: back laughing emojis of all the things to come and
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: school me on. At the gym, I was on the
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: seated row. You can't stuff that up? How do you
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: do that wrong? But so his argument was he came over,
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: excuse me, I think the weights are meant to go
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: all the way down to the bottom. I'm like, okay,
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: thank you so much, and he kept going. I said,
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: I know what I'm doing, thank you though, like trying
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: to be really polite, but I was like, my leavers
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: are so long, I can't get the weights to hit
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: the bottom. How am I supposed to do that? Anyway?
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: Leave me alone. Yes, go away.
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: What makes people think they can come and speak to you?
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: But he would never have done that to a guy.
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't have thought, so not a chance.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: In the world. Anyway. My trainer was standing nearby when
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: it all happened, and he just looked at me and
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: started last.
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: Someone should tell that man he's lucky to escape with
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: his life, O dear.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: Okay, so we have a bit of a tech problem.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: We raised this last week that the gen x is
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: are struggling with the technology. We know that there are
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: wind beneath our Wings nominations on instagram sending through to us.
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: We don't We can't get them, and by we I
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: mean can't. But if you could, please, if you have
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: made a win beneath our Wings nomination, send it through
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: to us on Facebook Messenger and we will we will
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: get that one because we would very much like to
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: have the win beneath our Wings nominations. We do not
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: have one this week. Although we know it's like the
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: Schrodingers Win Beneath our Wings nomination, we have them and
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: we don't have them. Actually same not.
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: The good thing about it is, though we don't have
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: to make more scrunches out of.
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: Top we are running. We are going to run low soon,
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: so listen. I'm going to make that Spotify playlist and
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: I'll put a link up on the Facebook page. Thanks
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: to those of you who are inviting people to join
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: the Facebook community, please share this podcast, as you know,
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: we need to build our listenership here and you know
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: you're giving people a gift, you're not asking them a favor,
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: so please do share it. This week, I will be
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: very interested to watch the results of the musical chairs
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: competition going on in Bryant Park in New York. And
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: how much fun does that sound? Well, we just lost Liz.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Oh. Yes, actually a musical.
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: A musical chairs competition in June. It's an evening I
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: think chas hundreds and then they get it down to
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: one champion, and I just thought that would be so fun,
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: you know, music and chairs.
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: And they'd have to be pretty strict on the rules,
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: so that sounds like a real McCloy's.
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: So it's not one giant loop of chairs. They have rounds.
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: They have sort of about thirty chairs in a circle
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: and you're put into different groups and then obviously they
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: bring it down and there are finalists. But I just
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: I think that I really want someone to organize that here.
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: Maybe that should be a Grand Final activation Netball Australia
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: because I would love to play musical checks.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Let's do it at our live event, oh god after champagne.
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it would be great. A world championship duck duck goose.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: That's the hardest part about that at our ages, getting.
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: You do it once and once only.
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just pulled it, Hammy, I'm out.
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So we do have a live event the night
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: before the Grand Final in Melbourne. The remainder of the
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: tickets for that will go on sale after the tickets
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: for the Grand Final go and sales, So I think
• 53:59
  Speaker 2: that around the twenty first, twenty second of June. So
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: thanks to those who have already bought tickets, but we
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: are holding back two thirds of them for people who
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: just need to know they've got their tickets first before
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: they are making a decision about coming. So but yet,
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: that's probably all we've got time for this week. We
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: are in the fourth quarter of this podcast, and you
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: know this is super Shot Territory. So if either of
• 54:21

• 54:24
  Speaker 2: minute of the podcast, now's the time. To land it.
• 54:27
