- 1:07Speaker 3: a lot of sickness out there to me.
- 1:08Speaker 4: Have you heard the same thing.
- 1:09Speaker 2: We're dtor Emily Kirkpatrick on five Double A Mornings yesterday
- 1:12Speaker 2: and she was saying that the flu, the spike of
- 1:15Speaker 2: flu cases is happening much later this year.
- 1:19Speaker 3: Didn't know an oyster could get a medical degree to
- 1:22Speaker 3: kill Patrick. Now, Sam, was my girlfriend's birthday yesterday. Won't
- 1:29Speaker 3: spend too long on that. I'll get the boring story.
- 1:32Speaker 4: Alarm.
- 1:33Speaker 5: What'd you get her?
- 1:34Speaker 6: Do?
- 1:34Speaker 5: You really want to know? What? I really want to know?
- 1:37Speaker 5: But you don't have to tell me. But I want
- 1:38Speaker 5: to know. It is private, mate, Okay, we'll talk about offair.
- 1:42Speaker 4: Okay, I got her some flowers yesterday, and then I
- 1:45Speaker 4: got her a I did get her a piece of jewelry.
- 1:48Speaker 3: Oh nah, let's just say thank goodness for the rains
- 1:51Speaker 3: this year in agriculture.
- 1:52Speaker 4: Otherwise she'd be getting a tin of baked beans. Now, Sam,
- 1:57Speaker 4: what Jared's said, play the alarm?
- 2:02Speaker 2: Of course you can join in O double four eight
- 2:04Speaker 2: Thursday ninety five will give us a buzz a double
- 2:07Speaker 2: two to three double low, double low.
- 2:10Speaker 3: Just watch it, Jared, all right, otherwise you'll get the
- 2:12Speaker 3: alarm played on you there, buddy. Now what's led to
- 2:18Speaker 3: this storytelling of the birthday yesterday is not the present, Sammy.
- 2:23Speaker 3: It is the other thing involved with the gift giving process.
- 2:26Speaker 4: The kit not karate, not kite.
- 2:31Speaker 5: The card very expensive.
- 2:34Speaker 4: Oh that's what I think. I went to the card store.
- 2:38Speaker 5: Okay, So where'd you get the card?
- 2:39Speaker 7: From?
- 2:40Speaker 4: The supermarket?
- 2:41Speaker 2: Supermarket? Are we talking Cole's Woolies? Are we talking like
- 2:44Speaker 2: a supermarket? Are we talking a newsagent? Or we're talking
- 2:46Speaker 2: a dollar store?
- 2:47Speaker 4: Now, I've got to be honest.
- 2:48Speaker 3: It was at a supermarket because the news agency was
- 2:51Speaker 3: not open, Okay, so I had to go to the supermarket.
- 2:54Speaker 4: News agent would usually be the preference.
- 2:57Speaker 3: I'm not going to name the supermarket because I've gotten
- 2:59Speaker 3: in trouble for doing things like that before.
- 3:02Speaker 4: How much do you think.
- 3:04Speaker 5: Yep, going it's going to be up to five if
- 3:08Speaker 5: it's at a super mirke.
- 3:09Speaker 3: Seven dollars eighty. Now, let's do a bit of a
- 3:11Speaker 3: breakdown on this. I've worked out the cost. It can't
- 3:14Speaker 3: be more than fifteen cents to do the bloody card.
- 3:16Speaker 3: There's no way if you think about the volume of
- 3:19Speaker 3: which they're doing it, the printing, No way. Ten cents
- 3:22Speaker 3: for the envelope.
- 3:22Speaker 5: Is that fit for the envelope for the end ofcope, sure.
- 3:26Speaker 3: I've got five cents for packaging and the barcode, and
- 3:29Speaker 3: then ten cents for freight.
- 3:30Speaker 4: Remember they're making thousands of this thing at a time.
- 3:34Speaker 3: There'd be a big printing facility that goes bang, gets
- 3:37Speaker 3: all of these done, and then in the supermarket.
- 3:39Speaker 4: I'm assuming that all of your packaging would need to
- 3:42Speaker 4: be a.
- 3:43Speaker 3: Certain size because then it would work it with efficiencies
- 3:46Speaker 3: with all of their shelving and distribution, so it'd all
- 3:48Speaker 3: be streamlined, is what I'm saying. There's no way that
- 3:51Speaker 3: one of these cards costs more than forty cents to
- 3:54Speaker 3: produce and land on the supermarket shelf.
- 3:57Speaker 5: Forty cents and you got charged.
- 4:01Speaker 4: That's a that's a.
- 4:01Speaker 3: Gross margin of ninety five percent and nineteen point five
- 4:05Speaker 3: times cost.
- 4:06Speaker 4: What else is doing that kind of return?
- 4:09Speaker 5: What else is severely overpriced?
- 4:11Speaker 8: No?
- 4:12Speaker 4: Okay, I'm happy to pay the seven eighty.
- 4:14Speaker 5: I'm just sorrying you because it doesn't sound like it.
- 4:16Speaker 4: No, but I'm just saying.
- 4:18Speaker 3: I'm just saying, you know, as a cost plus type thing,
- 4:24Speaker 3: there is nothing with the return on the cost like
- 4:27Speaker 3: a birthday card. What else would be I'm thinking maybe
- 4:30Speaker 3: bottled water? How much is bottled water cost to make?
- 4:36Speaker 2: I couldn't imagine it'd be much, but the markups on
- 4:38Speaker 2: that and people buying them unbelievable.
- 4:41Speaker 3: John from trot Park, Sam and ned, What the hell
- 4:43Speaker 3: has my sexual preference got to do with the census?
- 4:46Speaker 3: John from trot Park do you think that's appropriate to
- 4:48Speaker 3: ask in the census?
- 4:49Speaker 5: Yes? I do.
- 4:50Speaker 4: Yeah, because we.
- 4:51Speaker 3: Need more funding and more awareness for certain groups of
- 4:54Speaker 3: people that may be underrepresented, are under represented in old statistics.
- 5:00Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's the entire reason we do the census
- 5:03Speaker 2: is to find out what's going on in the community,
- 5:05Speaker 2: where services are needed, where services are needed and funding
- 5:09Speaker 2: is needed.
- 5:09Speaker 5: Is it more regional, is it more in the city?
- 5:11Speaker 9: Yep?
- 5:13Speaker 5: To me, it's a no brainer.
- 5:14Speaker 4: Darta collection, I agree with you.
- 5:15Speaker 3: Nice Tony from Seatans on the text line, goodness, what's
- 5:20Speaker 3: toning up to? Tony from Satan ned you could have
- 5:22Speaker 3: given the robotic cleaner? Oh is Tony obsessed with the
- 5:27Speaker 3: thought of my girlfriend cleaning?
- 5:30Speaker 4: Tony?
- 5:31Speaker 3: Second strike buddy, three strikes year round. Seriously, it's like baseball.
- 5:35Speaker 5: Now you're mate, back to the birthday card.
- 5:37Speaker 7: Sorry, do you get lost a little bit?
- 5:39Speaker 3: Okay, I'm just saying that I don't think there's anything
- 5:42Speaker 3: else with that kind of return on the cost. What
- 5:44Speaker 3: else is doing that? Now, this isn't even a radio topic.
- 5:47Speaker 3: If no one wants to call in about it.
- 5:48Speaker 4: That's fine. I mean it's not a very interesting topic.
- 5:51Speaker 4: But I just thought yesterday, what the heck is doing that?
- 5:54Speaker 5: Seriously stop reading the text halfway through a round?
- 6:00Speaker 3: So that's what I'm doing? Yes, distract, Yes, because come up,
- 6:04Speaker 3: I get distract.
- 6:05Speaker 2: You just stopped and started reading finish finish off what
- 6:08Speaker 2: you were saying.
- 6:08Speaker 4: That's all I've got. Okay, eight double two three double
- 6:11Speaker 4: o double o? What do you think of that? What
- 6:12Speaker 4: do you think was that? Was that a crap story?
- 6:14Speaker 4: I think it was.
- 6:15Speaker 2: Birthday cards though, in general, are just properly annoying. Because
- 6:20Speaker 2: you're buy a birthday card, it gets red. Okay, here's
- 6:23Speaker 2: a question for you spending seven dollars adadying on.
- 6:24Speaker 5: That birthday card?
- 6:26Speaker 2: Who out there as a high fiber who saved the
- 6:30Speaker 2: birthday cards?
- 6:32Speaker 4: What to redo them?
- 6:34Speaker 5: No? As keepsakes and memory?
- 6:36Speaker 4: Oh that's nice?
- 6:37Speaker 5: Yeah, who do you so?
- 6:39Speaker 4: How many of it's a nice card?
- 6:40Speaker 3: I've got letters and birthday cards and people who have
- 6:43Speaker 3: done framed them.
- 6:44Speaker 5: Really.
- 6:45Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 6:46Speaker 3: One of my best mates wrote me a really nice
- 6:47Speaker 3: letter when he asked me to be his best man,
- 6:49Speaker 3: and I've framed it and I've.
- 6:50Speaker 4: Got to do my wardrobe, so I look at it
- 6:51Speaker 4: all the time. What about this one? In terms of
- 6:54Speaker 4: return on cost?
- 6:56Speaker 3: I always thought the biggest profit margin would be the
- 6:59Speaker 3: chip honest dick at the show. Literally one potato, one
- 7:03Speaker 3: stick salt, twelve dollars, says Lindon.
- 7:07Speaker 4: That's a good one, Linden.
- 7:08Speaker 2: I agree with you there, but I'd love to know
- 7:11Speaker 2: what sort of chargers vendors are being placed on for
- 7:15Speaker 2: being at the show.
- 7:16Speaker 3: Operating casts, labor, electricity, the privilege.
- 7:20Speaker 5: The privilege of being at the show?
- 7:22Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes, what else is? What else has got
- 7:24Speaker 4: a huge margin?
- 7:25Speaker 3: Let's put it out to the old retrievers. There's six
- 7:28Speaker 3: thousand dollars. They wouldn't cost much to breed. With that,
- 7:31Speaker 3: we just put a puppy Golden Retriever and a mummy
- 7:33Speaker 3: Golden Retriever.
- 7:34Speaker 5: Frank, Good morning, Frank.
- 7:36Speaker 8: Good morning guys.
- 7:37Speaker 10: Ned.
- 7:38Speaker 8: I agree with you one hundred, one hundred per In
- 7:41Speaker 8: relation to birthday cards, one of the prices they're shocking
- 7:44Speaker 8: mates it if you want a good birthday card at
- 7:48Speaker 8: a good price. I used to get the birthday cards
- 7:53Speaker 8: at cheapest kits, which is now choice Mate two dollars
- 7:57Speaker 8: fifty nice card.
- 8:00Speaker 3: Thinking Frank, that's great advice for for myself and my listeners.
- 8:04Speaker 4: Some of them were like eight, nine, ten dollars, Frank,
- 8:06Speaker 4: What the heck's going on?
- 8:08Speaker 8: Shopping mode? Off?
- 8:10Speaker 3: Is it the printing companies, the electricity or something they're
- 8:13Speaker 3: going on, Frank?
- 8:14Speaker 4: Or what's going on?
- 8:17Speaker 8: Yep, you have a good day?
- 8:18Speaker 2: Yeah, I reckon, I reckon. They probably charged the seven
- 8:22Speaker 2: or eight dollars because they can't.
- 8:25Speaker 4: People are just prepared to pay it.
- 8:26Speaker 5: Margin have said gardens, good morning.
- 8:29Speaker 11: Oh yeah, look at my age and I don't want
- 8:32Speaker 11: to be clicking birthdaycounts.
- 8:34Speaker 12: I'd just rather a checks message or yeah, tell me.
- 8:40Speaker 13: If they wish, come on.
- 8:41Speaker 3: Margin might be nice to give you a birthday card
- 8:43Speaker 3: every now and again.
- 8:45Speaker 5: Now what am I going to do?
- 8:46Speaker 14: What am I taking to me?
- 8:47Speaker 4: Funeral March? That's not the attitude.
- 8:53Speaker 15: Yeah, it's time to clear out stuff.
- 8:56Speaker 12: You count and I got with you.
- 8:57Speaker 4: You go the other way. You're decluttering, Marge. Well, so
- 9:00Speaker 4: when is your birthday?
- 9:01Speaker 8: Much? Twenty sixth January?
- 9:05Speaker 3: Okay, so on that day we just send you a
- 9:07Speaker 3: text or give you a buzz and just say happy
- 9:09Speaker 3: birthday rather than.
- 9:10Speaker 11: The card me barbecue peg if you like what send
- 9:14Speaker 11: you what a barbecue pack?
- 9:17Speaker 8: Because have a barbecue me?
- 9:19Speaker 3: Try try a couple of tongs.
- 9:23Speaker 8: Yeah like it?
- 9:24Speaker 16: On your mars, I like.
- 9:29Speaker 7: It, March.
- 9:30Speaker 3: You are a rip at dipper and barbecue cleaning now, Sammy,
- 9:37Speaker 3: what you should do.
- 9:38Speaker 4: Is keep your barbecue very very hot.
- 9:40Speaker 3: After cooking, and then get some water and just put
- 9:43Speaker 3: that water on straight away. It's basically like putting boiling
- 9:46Speaker 3: water on there acts as a bit of a you know,
- 9:49Speaker 3: kind of disinfectant as such. Everything comes up off the plate,
- 9:53Speaker 3: Just wipe it. Bang done.
- 9:54Speaker 5: Do you then clean the barbecue before you use it?
- 9:57Speaker 1: Eh?
- 9:58Speaker 7: Little bit.
- 9:58Speaker 3: I like the extra flavor to a little bit of
- 10:01Speaker 3: a little bit of something on the end.
- 10:03Speaker 5: There another wrong with that, Debbie, good morning.
- 10:06Speaker 17: Good morning. I was just going to talk about the cards.
- 10:09Speaker 7: It's what I do and what.
- 10:10Speaker 17: I just did for my recent wedding anniversary because I
- 10:14Speaker 17: don't like spending you know, your seven eight bucks and cards,
- 10:16Speaker 17: it's thrown away whatever. I actually just do a mosaic
- 10:20Speaker 17: of photos of us or whatever and print it out
- 10:25Speaker 17: at work color and just.
- 10:27Speaker 18: A four fold in half.
- 10:29Speaker 17: You got your mosaic of happy snaps, and just write
- 10:32Speaker 17: a few little words on it and off my.
- 10:34Speaker 3: Go, that's really a good idea, Debbie, really good idea.
- 10:39Speaker 17: Oh what did you say?
- 10:44Speaker 6: Then?
- 10:46Speaker 5: That's gone, Bill praising your idea.
- 10:48Speaker 4: That's a really good idea.
- 10:49Speaker 3: And then I thought she was going to say, yeah,
- 10:51Speaker 3: I think of this due and then we'd all be
- 10:52Speaker 3: happy ever after.
- 10:53Speaker 2: But were you ever taught growing up that it was
- 10:56Speaker 2: rude not to open the card first? Yes? Yeah, So
- 11:00Speaker 2: whenever you get your present, you're sitting there with a
- 11:02Speaker 2: massive wrapped up box and you've got to open the card,
- 11:05Speaker 2: pretend that you're read it as a kid. So thank
- 11:08Speaker 2: you very much, then dig into the present.
- 11:10Speaker 4: Yeah, now it's much more exciting. He's the present, Isn't it.
- 11:12Speaker 2: Much more exciting? Mark in Power Hills on the text
- 11:14Speaker 2: line cards or a rip off? Cheap shops have good
- 11:16Speaker 2: priced cards. Go pick some flowers, Mark from Parrot Hills.
- 11:20Speaker 3: What about this text? Good morning guys. We buy a
- 11:23Speaker 3: pack of twenty boy set girl said from Timu. Super
- 11:27Speaker 3: cheap for the pack, and we have them in the
- 11:28Speaker 3: house ready to go when we need them.
- 11:30Speaker 4: Cheers Josh. Now, Josh, Josh, that is a cost saving hack.
- 11:33Speaker 5: Josh, Josh, Josh, Josh, don't get.
- 11:35Speaker 4: Into him for it.
- 11:36Speaker 2: I am asking some clarifying questions because I just want
- 11:40Speaker 2: to know how this operates. If you've bought twenty cards
- 11:44Speaker 2: for boys and twenty cards for girls, are you then
- 11:48Speaker 2: buying twenty of the same cards, then for the next
- 11:52Speaker 2: six years, you're offering the same person the same birthday
- 11:55Speaker 2: card every year? Or is it a sorted mix of
- 11:57Speaker 2: twenty birthday cards?
- 11:58Speaker 4: Question? You're gonna have to Josh that which I think
- 12:01Speaker 4: you are.
- 12:01Speaker 5: Yes, I definitely am.
- 12:04Speaker 4: I would assume perhaps a mixed back, a mixed pack.
- 12:07Speaker 2: I'd like to think so, but I'd find it very
- 12:09Speaker 2: funny if it was just the same card.
- 12:11Speaker 4: And also.
- 12:14Speaker 3: Alarmed for not being very twenty twenty six. What is
- 12:16Speaker 3: a boy set and.
- 12:17Speaker 4: What's a girl set?
- 12:18Speaker 3: Now, Josh, let's not gender role with colors, just kidding.
- 12:22Speaker 3: I don't feel as strongly about that being an issue
- 12:24Speaker 3: as others do.
- 12:25Speaker 4: And while mind blue for boys and pink for girls.
- 12:28Speaker 5: And while we're on the card top.
- 12:29Speaker 3: Shoot me, shoot me, shoot me down, blues more of
- 12:34Speaker 3: a boy color and pink's more of a girl color.
- 12:36Speaker 4: There I said it, shoot me down, put me off air?
- 12:40Speaker 5: Did you d me no idea? And I was going
- 12:42Speaker 5: to be a say if I didn't do it.
- 12:45Speaker 2: On the topic of cards, now that we're on it,
- 12:48Speaker 2: Christmas cards. Is anyone still sending Christmas cards out every
- 12:53Speaker 2: year to your family, friends, relatives? Are we still doing
- 12:57Speaker 2: the Christmas cards? Because back when I was younger, I
- 13:00Speaker 2: remember we'd have a flood of Christmas cards at Christmas.
- 13:02Speaker 5: Time and Mum would want to hang them all up.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Now she barely sends any I thing and we don't
- 13:07Speaker 2: really get that many. Is it the Christmas card?
- 13:10Speaker 5: A dying art?
- 13:13Speaker 13: Yeah?
- 13:13Speaker 4: Well a double two to three double o double, Oh,
- 13:15Speaker 4: call in, tell us what you think. Is it a
- 13:16Speaker 4: part of the gift giving process?
- 13:18Speaker 3: A text here from one of our favorites, A five
- 13:22Speaker 3: double A legend Mel from the newsroom.
- 13:25Speaker 4: I'm guessing that's Mel.
- 13:26Speaker 2: Usher is yes, because Mel's reading the news this morning,
- 13:28Speaker 2: so she's up bright and early.
- 13:30Speaker 4: She's saying good morning from the other room.
- 13:32Speaker 2: She's here, dumb, Well, come in here quickly, please, Mel,
- 13:34Speaker 2: and tell us about your cards. Come in, Mel, she says,
- 13:37Speaker 2: we need a break, but we'll wait if you're listening.
- 13:39Speaker 3: Are an integral part of the gift giving process?
- 13:42Speaker 4: Extraordinary?
- 13:43Speaker 5: She come here?
- 13:44Speaker 2: Is Mel feeling in for Kendle this morning. Morning mel
- 13:47Speaker 2: can tell us about your cards.
- 13:49Speaker 19: Well, you've got to have a card. It's part of
- 13:53Speaker 19: the gift giving process. Yes, like you said, when we
- 13:55Speaker 19: were little, we learnt that you open the card first.
- 13:58Speaker 19: But it just rounds it off, you know. It brings
- 14:01Speaker 19: me to the whole issue of gift wrapping. And do
- 14:04Speaker 19: you go the gift bag or the wrapping paper with
- 14:06Speaker 19: a ribbon.
- 14:07Speaker 5: I'm always going for the gift bag because I can't
- 14:09Speaker 5: wrap a present.
- 14:10Speaker 19: I have a gift wrapping card I've seen. I have
- 14:13Speaker 19: wrapping paper, I have ribbons. I have all sorts of
- 14:16Speaker 19: things you could put on a present. I have string,
- 14:19Speaker 19: I have pretty string. I have washing tape, whatever it's called.
- 14:23Speaker 19: I have a few gift bags as well. But I
- 14:26Speaker 19: put so much thought into it. But a card is
- 14:29Speaker 19: part of it. I go to different shops and sometimes
- 14:32Speaker 19: I buy a certain card for a certain person, maybe
- 14:35Speaker 19: two months ahead, because I see it and I just
- 14:37Speaker 19: think that.
- 14:38Speaker 4: Is mouth mal. Please, just.
- 14:43Speaker 3: You mustn't have any time to even think or just
- 14:46Speaker 3: do you ever just put your feet up and think
- 14:48Speaker 3: it won't matter that much. No, Oh my goodness, double
- 14:52Speaker 3: two to three, double A double A. If we have
- 14:54Speaker 3: any other listeners who are in this frame of mind
- 14:57Speaker 3: that are pre purchasing cards for people ten weeks in advance.
- 15:01Speaker 5: God, I always forget to buy the card and buy
- 15:03Speaker 5: it on the way.
- 15:03Speaker 4: Are you kidding?
- 15:04Speaker 19: And sometimes the card is so pretty that I actually
- 15:07Speaker 19: ditched the envelope to highlight the card because it just
- 15:10Speaker 19: is perfect and it matches the wrapping part.
- 15:14Speaker 2: Thank you, Mel, Thanks appreciate it. Ordinary jump on the phone.
- 15:17Speaker 4: Caroline, Mel, I'm with you one hundred percent. You're kidding, Caroline,
- 15:22Speaker 4: that's gold.
- 15:23Speaker 5: That is excellent. Craig and Ingle Farm, good.
- 15:25Speaker 9: Morning, Good morning boy.
- 15:27Speaker 15: So we to.
- 15:30Speaker 16: That'd be boiled eggs, just seating the dogs before a
- 15:32Speaker 16: head off to work.
- 15:33Speaker 13: Lovely likely just on Christmas cards you got me thinking, yeah,
- 15:39Speaker 13: I get what you're saying, but my mum still gives

- 15:45Speaker 16: So last Christmas, you're going it's just a purl.
- 15:49Speaker 13: She just wrote something.
- 15:51Speaker 16: In my eyes out and thought.
- 15:53Speaker 13: I'm going to write a letter back this.
- 15:55Speaker 16: You don't even carving to write the letter. So I
- 15:56Speaker 16: write the letter out and my acoustic guitars. Now, look,
- 15:59Speaker 16: I think you know what.
- 16:01Speaker 14: There's a song in this.

- 16:05Speaker 16: song out of my response to a card ball in
- 16:08Speaker 16: mind out the whole time, very emotional talking about no ship.
- 16:13Speaker 16: Two to five minutes to write this song, recorded.

- 16:17Speaker 16: I actually played it lot Christmas, study that and then
- 16:21Speaker 16: gave it to a CD of the song.

- 16:44Speaker 2: this is evolve.

- 18:40Speaker 10: Julie.
- 18:40Speaker 3: That was like the biggest news story in South Australia,
- 18:43Speaker 3: the possums, and now no one talks about it.
- 18:45Speaker 12: Yeah, well I forgot about the possums, didn't he? Poor
- 18:48Speaker 12: little things? Not gonna matter.
- 18:49Speaker 4: The tree, Yeah, we did announce it pre election.
- 18:52Speaker 5: But anyway, Julie saw a lot of trees though.
- 18:55Speaker 12: Talking about cards and birthday cards in general, excuse me.
- 19:00Speaker 12: It was Mark's birthday last week. As you know, I
- 19:02Speaker 12: didn't give him a card and he doesn't give me cards.
- 19:04Speaker 3: So when you say Mark, are you talking about Mark
- 19:07Speaker 3: from Findon or Mark from blakefield'st from Blake Oh sorry,
- 19:11Speaker 3: I thought you might be giving some of our other
- 19:13Speaker 3: listeners and having listener kind of.
- 19:16Speaker 5: Mark from Finlan, the one that dreamt about Julie.
- 19:18Speaker 4: No, that wasn't that was.
- 19:21Speaker 12: Some guy from collins Wood, wasn't it.
- 19:23Speaker 3: Yeah it was Gary from collins would great memory Jewels. Sorry,
- 19:26Speaker 3: keep going on about Mark from.
- 19:27Speaker 12: Blake Memory So good morning Gary.
- 19:31Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 19:31Speaker 12: No, I just think birthday cards and I don't have
- 19:34Speaker 12: to give Mark a card to say happy birthday and
- 19:37Speaker 12: I love you and everything.
- 19:38Speaker 6: He knows that.
- 19:39Speaker 12: So and that's seven or eight dollars you spend on
- 19:42Speaker 12: a birthday card I can be put to better use
- 19:45Speaker 12: so well. And Christmas cards are dying art, So I
- 19:50Speaker 12: don't know. I just think once upon.
- 19:52Speaker 11: A time it was well, let's face that nobody had
- 19:55Speaker 11: text messaging and all the digital stuff and everything we
- 19:59Speaker 11: have today, so it was the done thing to give
- 20:02Speaker 11: a card.
- 20:03Speaker 12: But at the moment or now, there's just really no
- 20:06Speaker 12: need for We have a couple of aunties that we
- 20:08Speaker 12: still do, but.
- 20:12Speaker 14: No, Doc, I said, I.
- 20:13Speaker 12: Don't need to be spending eight dollars on him to
- 20:16Speaker 12: say happy birthday.
- 20:17Speaker 10: And yeah, I just.
- 20:20Speaker 13: I don't get it.
- 20:21Speaker 5: Do you do you keep birthday cards? Julie?
- 20:24Speaker 12: I used to Sam, when I was getting the bit,
- 20:28Speaker 12: I don't know. I think you keep them for a
- 20:29Speaker 12: little while and then you'll come across the heap and think,
- 20:32Speaker 12: well what do I really need these for? So and
- 20:35Speaker 12: then it's just clutter. So no, not now just not
- 20:40Speaker 12: really not really worth it.
- 20:42Speaker 4: Thank you, Julie.
- 20:43Speaker 3: You see you have a good day, Caroline says Ned.
- 20:47Speaker 3: You know your girlfriend's birthday is coming up and you've
- 20:49Speaker 3: got to eat a look for a card, no excuses,
- 20:51Speaker 3: pack on away, don't do it last minute.
- 20:53Speaker 5: I say, to do it now, get ahead for next year.
- 20:56Speaker 5: But I feel like Ned you would forget where you
- 20:59Speaker 5: put it.
- 20:59Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not me for that one, Caroline, but I
- 21:02Speaker 3: appreciate the advice. What's the earliest you've ever got a
- 21:05Speaker 3: present for someone, Caroline or any of our listeners A
- 21:08Speaker 3: double two.
- 21:09Speaker 4: To three, double O, double O.
- 21:10Speaker 3: When's the earliest you've gotten organized day before? Well, that's
- 21:14Speaker 3: you what some of our listeners might go, Hey, I
- 21:16Speaker 3: saw something six months in advance. What do you get
- 21:19Speaker 3: excited to give the gift?
- 21:20Speaker 6: Though?
- 21:21Speaker 2: No, I get I feel absolute dread having to go
- 21:24Speaker 2: buy a gift because I never know what to go by.
- 21:26Speaker 3: Yeah, has anyone bought something for someone as a gift
- 21:29Speaker 3: and held on to it for four months or even longer.
- 21:32Speaker 3: Does anyone have that level of organization? Would love to
- 21:35Speaker 3: hear that eight double two to three double O double A.
- 21:37Speaker 2: Speaking of birthday cards, there was a period growing up,
- 21:40Speaker 2: maybe six or seven years my brother once gave me
- 21:43Speaker 2: a birthday card. He couldn't be bothered writing on it.
- 21:46Speaker 2: It was in the plastic and it just handed me
- 21:48Speaker 2: the birthday card. That's just six months later, I handed
- 21:52Speaker 2: him the same birthday card back. That went on for
- 21:55Speaker 2: about seven years. You're kidding, same birthday card in its wrapper.
- 21:58Speaker 3: That's a great little kind of personal family anecdote.
- 22:02Speaker 5: Then my brother lost the card.
- 22:04Speaker 3: Okay, very close to the BSA there, very very close
- 22:08Speaker 3: to the BSA.
- 22:09Speaker 4: I'm not going to alert it, but just know that
- 22:12Speaker 4: was bloody close.
- 22:15Speaker 5: Thought that was really good and Sally, good morning.
- 22:19Speaker 7: Sal.
- 22:22Speaker 15: When it comes to present, yeah, I start early like
- 22:25Speaker 15: I start boxing day.
- 22:29Speaker 6: Yep.
- 22:29Speaker 10: I have a book and every year on boxing, like
- 22:33Speaker 10: late Christmas night if we haven't, you know, for've got
- 22:36Speaker 10: some quiet time or boxing day morning, I'll sit down
- 22:39Speaker 10: with my partner and go right, whose birthdays have we
- 22:42Speaker 10: got this year?
- 22:43Speaker 15: And who are we buying four for Christmas? And write
- 22:46Speaker 15: it in my little book, and then as I see
- 22:48Speaker 15: things throughout the year, I'll get them. But the boxing
- 22:50Speaker 15: day sales are quite often great, especially for kids, Christmas class,
- 22:54Speaker 15: for my nieces and stuff. I'll get them then. And
- 22:57Speaker 15: I've got a box in our room that it all
- 22:59Speaker 15: goes in. And yeah, I'll start from boxing days, but
- 23:05Speaker 15: work out like I said, everyone's birthday, Christmas. And then
- 23:08Speaker 15: as I buy stuff or see it in the shop,
- 23:10Speaker 15: so I'll pick it off. And sometimes what I write
- 23:12Speaker 15: in the book changes because I'll see something else and
- 23:15Speaker 15: go now they want that more. But it gives me
- 23:17Speaker 15: an idea, and it gives me all year to shop.
- 23:21Speaker 3: So you're buying three hundred and sixty four days in advance.
- 23:24Speaker 4: That is extraordinary.
- 23:26Speaker 8: I love it.
- 23:27Speaker 5: You have to be the most organized high fiver we have.
- 23:30Speaker 4: But that's good.
- 23:30Speaker 3: It's great to hear, Salem. It clearly works for you.
- 23:33Speaker 3: Joey from Grange, good morning.
- 23:36Speaker 14: Good morning guys. Listen sammy cards. I've collected cards. I've
- 23:41Speaker 14: been married for over forty years. I've got cards from
- 23:45Speaker 14: dating back when we're first married. I've got cards from
- 23:48Speaker 14: my kids when they were started to write, and when
- 23:52Speaker 14: you reflect back looking at those cards, it's a life
- 23:56Speaker 14: story and you can see how their life has evolved,
- 24:00Speaker 14: how you have played a part of their growing up.
- 24:05Speaker 14: And when you get to my age, you start looking
- 24:12Speaker 14: back at those cards and you can sort of see
- 24:15Speaker 14: what you've your input as a father, as a parent
- 24:20Speaker 14: to the kids, and to your wife. So it's a meaning.
- 24:26Speaker 14: Cards are a meaning. And it's sad that one of
- 24:30Speaker 14: the listeners said that they text texted. Texting doesn't really
- 24:37Speaker 14: express the gratitude in a card. And to spend eight
- 24:42Speaker 14: bucks nine bucks over time, I think when you reflect,
- 24:49Speaker 14: when you go back and reflect, cards are a meaningful
- 24:53Speaker 14: way of expressing one's self.
- 24:57Speaker 5: Very nice, jh.
- 24:58Speaker 3: And that was kind of more so directed at Sammy
- 25:01Speaker 3: off the back of your comments with cards. But I'd
- 25:03Speaker 3: like to add my little two cents, Joe. That was
- 25:05Speaker 3: a great, great summary and we appreciate it. What about
- 25:09Speaker 3: Jim from the mid North.
- 25:11Speaker 6: Got a ned hagun Hello, Sam, Hey, Jim, could I
- 25:15Speaker 6: could write a blog if I wasn't a literate on cards?
- 25:18Speaker 6: But responding to Joe, when my old dad passed away
- 25:21Speaker 6: some years ago, now I'm nearly sixty when I was
- 25:24Speaker 6: helping me mum clean up. I found a rock in
- 25:26Speaker 6: his bottom drawer I painted at kindergarten and varnished us
- 25:29Speaker 6: a paperweight and he kept it all those years. And
- 25:31Speaker 6: that was pretty emotional because my dad was a sort
- 25:34Speaker 6: of old school type dad. He kept a damn stone
- 25:37Speaker 6: i'd painted.
- 25:38Speaker 3: Oh wow, yeah, and is sorry no sorry, Jim, I
- 25:42Speaker 3: was just gonna say, was it is here?
- 25:44Speaker 4: A usually quite an emotional god.
- 25:49Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, really surprised, old old hard drinking is hard
- 25:52Speaker 6: work and sort of honest, good family man, but sort
- 25:55Speaker 6: of the uncle's played football with you, lucky if the
- 25:59Speaker 6: my dad men died one punch and kick the footy once,
- 26:01Speaker 6: probably yeah, that sort of dad, good dad him at all.
- 26:06Speaker 6: About the cards, my partner, when we come dad Lakers,
- 26:10Speaker 6: we're country fate. We see a card when we think, oh,
- 26:12Speaker 6: that would be good for so and so, and then
- 26:14Speaker 6: we forget we've bought it, and some years later find
- 26:16Speaker 6: it tucked away somewhere in the house where we were
- 26:18Speaker 6: keeping it safe. So we've got cards we've bought for
- 26:21Speaker 6: certain people. By the time we find them a few
- 26:23Speaker 6: years later, the people aren't the same, so we don't think,
- 26:25Speaker 6: oh no, we won't give it to them. And my
- 26:28Speaker 6: nephews and nieces were terrible. They'd open their Christmas cards
- 26:32Speaker 6: but not take them out of the envelope and just
- 26:34Speaker 6: ripped the money out. So my old mum started triple
- 26:36Speaker 6: taping then make them look at it. And another story
- 26:42Speaker 6: about cards, my lad. I don't know why he was
- 26:44Speaker 6: like it. I was a single parent for a long
- 26:46Speaker 6: long time. He'd keep all his Christmas cards and Birthday
- 26:49Speaker 6: cards and sort of treasure them. And when he went
- 26:52Speaker 6: off to the Army, I cleaned his room out and
- 26:53Speaker 6: went through his cards, and a lot of them still
- 26:55Speaker 6: had the money in it, and I borrowed some of it.
- 26:58Speaker 6: Be honest with you, he's still the notes tied in
- 27:01Speaker 6: him from it for years. He didn't take the money
- 27:03Speaker 6: out of the cards. And I don't know where he
- 27:05Speaker 6: got that from, because I want from me, because I'm
- 27:07Speaker 6: a bit of a slide fellow.
- 27:09Speaker 4: Oh thanks, Jim, thanks for story. That was a great
- 27:12Speaker 4: car boys.
- 27:13Speaker 6: Thank you. Mommy wade to Mount Gambia. So I've got
- 27:15Speaker 6: to keep moving.
- 27:16Speaker 3: Hang on your well, cool, Hunger. That's you'd be south
- 27:19Speaker 3: of crystal Brook there, Jim.
- 27:20Speaker 6: Oh yeah, yeah, we are between the clear and crystal Brook. Yeah,
- 27:25Speaker 6: well I'm actually at ballet club and now I'm underwaying game.
- 27:28Speaker 6: We've got to pick up a car, a couple of
- 27:30Speaker 6: cars we've got to blown up. And the girl worked

- 27:51Speaker 5: So are flying and going over correct?
- 27:53Speaker 3: Well, well, can we make a bit of a rule
- 27:55Speaker 3: after the next break, We're going to shift off cards.
- 27:57Speaker 4: We've about cards for a long time, haven't We can.
- 28:00Speaker 2: Keep going with cards if people want to talk about
- 28:02Speaker 2: cards and edge, we'll just give it what the people
- 28:04Speaker 2: what they want.
- 28:04Speaker 3: We are here to facilitate the conversation, not directed. A
- 28:08Speaker 3: tight ask made of mine. Once sent me a birthday
- 28:11Speaker 3: card which was covered with wide out. Obviously, it was
- 28:14Speaker 3: a card that he had received previously, and he decided
- 28:16Speaker 3: to recycle it. Christ from North adelaide Chris that make
- 28:20Speaker 3: needs to stand talking to because that is not on. Hey,
- 28:23Speaker 3: this is even different direction. Morning lads, once again another
- 28:30Speaker 3: great chail.
- 28:30Speaker 4: Well thank you.
- 28:31Speaker 3: I agree with the other text about sexual preference questions
- 28:35Speaker 3: in the census. We all use the same hospitals, the
- 28:38Speaker 3: same education system, the same mental health experts, etc.
- 28:42Speaker 4: Et cetera. Why single them out? For example, country people.
- 28:45Speaker 3: Weren't asked many questions and they lack an enormous amount
- 28:49Speaker 3: of resources.
- 28:50Speaker 4: What about them?
- 28:51Speaker 3: They do so much for us and we're left off
- 28:53Speaker 3: the census, says Matt.
- 28:54Speaker 4: What do you think about that?
- 28:55Speaker 5: Matt?
- 28:56Speaker 2: Are you coming from it from the angle that people
- 28:59Speaker 2: part in part of that community don't want to be
- 29:01Speaker 2: singled out, so you're trying to protect them or is
- 29:05Speaker 2: it you're just not understanding as to why, because I
- 29:09Speaker 2: reckon if you ask members of that community, they would
- 29:12Speaker 2: be more than happy with that question being in the
- 29:14Speaker 2: census and on the front foot about it being yes,
- 29:17Speaker 2: this is a good thing.
- 29:19Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 29:19Speaker 3: I think perhaps what's Matt saying? And I don't want
- 29:22Speaker 3: to put words in Matt's mouth because it's his opinion,
- 29:27Speaker 3: not mine, but perhaps you go, Okay, they don't deserve
- 29:29Speaker 3: to be marginalized, and that is true, so why single
- 29:32Speaker 3: them out. However, there's oversight there about the realities that
- 29:37Speaker 3: those people and anyone are part of perhaps a marginalized group,
- 29:41Speaker 3: are exposed to different issues than you know, the majority
- 29:45Speaker 3: of society.
- 29:45Speaker 2: And again, that's what the census is all about. That's
- 29:47Speaker 2: what it's trying to figure out what's going on in
- 29:49Speaker 2: the community.
- 29:49Speaker 3: It's good conversation, though, I think everyone wants to do
- 29:52Speaker 3: the right thing. Bover runing Legends says this text that
- 29:57Speaker 3: long time.
- 29:58Speaker 4: Listen to third time text.
- 29:59Speaker 3: I'm interested in your thoughts as this is the third
- 30:02Speaker 3: time I've texted your show in the last week. I
- 30:04Speaker 3: feel that we are developing a friendship. In order to
- 30:06Speaker 3: maintain a friendship, what do you consider an appropriate amount
- 30:10Speaker 3: of time between new friends to text each other each
- 30:12Speaker 3: week to ensure the friendship is maintained and continues to flourish,
- 30:16Speaker 3: even if you are just texting them something random like
- 30:18Speaker 3: I am now have a.
- 30:19Speaker 4: Great day, says Nate.
- 30:21Speaker 3: Great question, Nate about the frequency of texting. Hmm, we
- 30:26Speaker 3: might have to get to that after the break. Nate
- 30:28Speaker 3: Peter from Marston we love him. He says, I don't
- 30:30Speaker 3: do Easter, but I have sent a Valentine's Day card.
- 30:33Speaker 2: O petern'che wow, wow, all right, we need you get
- 30:39Speaker 2: to a break, Netty, get to a break twenty two
- 30:41Speaker 2: minutes of six eight double two three double O double
- 30:43Speaker 2: oh zero double four eight oh wait thirty ninety five.
- 30:46Speaker 2: Tom Ren coming up next with sport. Of course Stacey

- 30:53Speaker 1: Need met Henry and Sam Dado five double a early breakfast.
- 31:00Speaker 2: Ten minutes the sixth. Tommy Wren coming up very shortly.
- 31:03Speaker 2: But of course yesterday we herd at two o'clock yesterday afternoon,
- 31:06Speaker 2: the Reserve Bank kept rates on hold. The official cash
- 31:10Speaker 2: rate remains at four point three five percent. RBA Governor
- 31:14Speaker 2: Michelle Bullocks's challenges persist in the economy, and the rate
- 31:17Speaker 2: hikes in the future not off the table.
- 31:20Speaker 20: So we will need still need to see some further
- 31:22Speaker 20: progress before the Board can be confident that we are
- 31:25Speaker 20: going to get inflation back to target with current monetary
- 31:28Speaker 20: policy settings.
- 31:29Speaker 4: The Board will.
- 31:30Speaker 20: Raise interest rates further if that is what is required
- 31:32Speaker 20: to bring inflation down in a timely way.
- 31:34Speaker 5: Treasurer Jim Chalmers also spoke.
- 31:36Speaker 21: Now, we did already have inflation challenge in our economy,
- 31:39Speaker 21: but the conflict is making that harder. And that's why
- 31:42Speaker 21: from an economic point of view, a proper enduring end
- 31:46Speaker 21: to this war cannot come soon enough. We desperately need
- 31:50Speaker 21: to see an end of this war in the Middle East.
- 31:52Speaker 2: Go for a top of fifteen degrees with the showers
- 31:54Speaker 2: about today Thursday sixteen with a shower, or to Friday
- 31:57Speaker 2: seventeen degrees in cloudy Saturday seventeen, Sunday seventeen, Right now
- 32:02Speaker 2: in City ten point nine.
- 32:05Speaker 22: The Latest in Sport with Tom Ree, Tommy Tommy, Tommy
- 32:08Speaker 22: Morning Savvy. Morning there boys, hope you're having a great morning,
- 32:11Speaker 22: sounding fantastic. Just wanted to talk to you about some soccer.
- 32:16Speaker 7: Adelaide. No, you do a great job boys.
- 32:18Speaker 22: Adelaide United unfortunately lost last night to Nils So that
- 32:22Speaker 22: was an Asian Champions League qualifier.
- 32:24Speaker 7: So because they had such.
- 32:26Speaker 22: A great season last season, they were a chance to
- 32:28Speaker 22: qualify for the Asian Champions League. So they played against
- 32:32Speaker 22: Kong and Hanoi Vietnamese side. Stephan Mork who used to
- 32:35Speaker 22: be the Reds captain, he's playing there on Well, yeah,
- 32:39Speaker 22: it's right. Unfortunately they lost though the Red so more
- 32:42Speaker 22: can his side won two NILS, so they're in the
- 32:44Speaker 22: second tier of the Asian Champions League, so disappointing. And
- 32:49Speaker 22: while we're on the world game, I thought i'd bring
- 32:51Speaker 22: up with you a local soccer stories. So NPL good
- 32:55Speaker 22: to always talk some local sport. But the NPL, which
- 32:58Speaker 22: is I guess the equivalent of the s ANFL. It's
- 33:01Speaker 22: like the highest tier of soccer that we've got in
- 33:04Speaker 22: our state, been going for well over one hundred years. Unfortunately,
- 33:08Speaker 22: the team that I used to play for, Para Hills,
- 33:10Speaker 22: they're playing in that top division so relegation promotion, and
- 33:15Speaker 22: they have scored only fourteen goals this season. I think
- 33:18Speaker 22: it's from their twenty one games they've played so far,
- 33:21Speaker 22: and they've conceded ninety eight goals. So if they can
- 33:24Speaker 22: see two goals on the weekend, they'll be just the
- 33:28Speaker 22: sixth team in history and the first since nineteen fifty
- 33:32Speaker 22: one to concede one hundred goals in a season.
- 33:36Speaker 5: That's not a badge of honor you want.
- 33:37Speaker 7: That's not a badge of honor you want.
- 33:38Speaker 22: Now, I did a little bit of digging into this
- 33:41Speaker 22: as to you know, why this is the case. And
- 33:44Speaker 22: I thought this would be a broader issue about local
- 33:47Speaker 22: sport and money, et cetera. So I think there were
- 33:52Speaker 22: some players that weren't being paid and I absolutely understand
- 33:56Speaker 22: their point of view. Three or four players maybe more
- 34:00Speaker 22: at work getting their wages because the club's really struggling financially,
- 34:03Speaker 22: so they've walked out. So essentially they're playing their reserves.
- 34:06Speaker 22: They're under eighteen's that are having to play first team,
- 34:08Speaker 22: so they're just getting belt at every single week. And
- 34:11Speaker 22: it got me thinking, well, why is it that we've
- 34:13Speaker 22: got so many sides struggling or you know, and I
- 34:17Speaker 22: know football wise it happens as well in soccer also,
- 34:22Speaker 22: but you've got this situation where you know, players are
- 34:26Speaker 22: commanding big money, sometimes a thousand and fifteen hundred dollars
- 34:29Speaker 22: a week, and clubs clearly are struggling, and then you're
- 34:33Speaker 22: getting juniors I know, certainly at soccer level, paying twelve
- 34:37Speaker 22: hundred and fifteen hundred dollars a year because you're subsidizing
- 34:40Speaker 22: the senior players that are playing. Are we over paying
- 34:44Speaker 22: our NPL players here in the soccer and our local
- 34:48Speaker 22: footy players at the expense of juniors, etc.
- 34:52Speaker 7: It's a really interesting discussion.
- 34:53Speaker 3: I think it is ready, I'm not sure it's actually
- 34:56Speaker 3: the regulation that's the problem. I think it's people to
- 35:00Speaker 3: the regulation. It's just clubs that have different, you know,
- 35:03Speaker 3: varying levels of wealth behind them that just cheat the
- 35:05Speaker 3: system constantly at different at different levels.
- 35:08Speaker 4: Do you agree with that?
- 35:09Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it does happen.
- 35:10Speaker 22: I think there's you have salary caps obviously, and I
- 35:13Speaker 22: think you know there is you know a lot of
- 35:16Speaker 22: sort of behind the doual payment.
- 35:17Speaker 3: So I think it happens all the time, Rennie and Sad.
- 35:20Speaker 3: For reserves competition, it looks like is going to go
- 35:23Speaker 3: on next year and then after that it will go
- 35:26Speaker 3: which means a host of talented young players aren't going
- 35:30Speaker 3: to be necessarily on a formal samdful list and will
- 35:33Speaker 3: then be redistributed into the local footy scene, if that
- 35:36Speaker 3: makes sense. So Adelai Footy League Country footy. If you're
- 35:38Speaker 3: a gun nineteen year old and some country club says hey,
- 35:41Speaker 3: may we'll give you three grand for a game or
- 35:43Speaker 3: two and a half grand for a game cash, then
- 35:46Speaker 3: you're brought out to country foot are You're going and
- 35:48Speaker 3: playing out at the Bross or down the southeast, and
- 35:50Speaker 3: you're out of that footy environment where some.
- 35:52Speaker 4: Of those players could be late developers.
- 35:53Speaker 3: They could be a twenty three year old that ends
- 35:55Speaker 3: up at Glenelgan on an AFL list.
- 35:57Speaker 22: Yeah, and I think then the other issue that happens is,
- 35:59Speaker 22: and we've seen it many times, is clubs often over
- 36:02Speaker 22: extend themselves trying to pay players or do things, and
- 36:05Speaker 22: we've seen it in this case. And I'm not sure
- 36:08Speaker 22: what the ramifications or why the club has run out
- 36:12Speaker 22: of Para Hills, but then they find themselves in a
- 36:14Speaker 22: situation where they can't afford to pay players, and then
- 36:17Speaker 22: the club essentially goes on its knees. Hence Para Hills
- 36:20Speaker 22: have really struggled with the first team this season. So yeah,
- 36:24Speaker 22: I think there's that situation as well. There's this pressure
- 36:27Speaker 22: to keep up with all the other clubs and stay competitive,
- 36:31Speaker 22: and so you're getting this oversaturated market in terms of
- 36:34Speaker 22: paying players more than perhaps they can afford. They're over
- 36:37Speaker 22: extending themselves and it's just not sustainable. So it's a
- 36:41Speaker 22: major problem. But look for Para Hills this week. Like
- 36:44Speaker 22: I said, first clubs potentially since nine ten fifty one
- 36:47Speaker 22: to conceive one hundred goals. Hopefully they part not just
- 36:50Speaker 22: the bus, but the double deck of us.
- 36:52Speaker 7: I like it is.
- 36:53Speaker 2: The club doing alright as a whole or is this
- 36:56Speaker 2: struggling the season?
- 36:57Speaker 22: So I think this season well, I mean the fact
- 36:59Speaker 22: they're in the top flight means they're going well. And historically,
- 37:02Speaker 22: like Craig Goodwin the Mullen Boys, Para Hills, I would say,
- 37:05Speaker 22: is Adelaide City Campbelltown very strong, but Para Hills is
- 37:11Speaker 22: one of the best clubs in the state for producing
- 37:14Speaker 22: soccer US Adelaide United players.
- 37:16Speaker 7: They're unbelievable.
- 37:17Speaker 22: Their junior program historically unreal so really good. But I
- 37:22Speaker 22: think in this particular case, it's perhaps just financially this season,
- 37:26Speaker 22: it's all caught up the struggling there.
- 37:28Speaker 2: You know what I'm thinking, what's that if we need
- 37:30Speaker 2: to help the club out, we can.
- 37:32Speaker 5: We can.
- 37:32Speaker 2: We can get a big, big name star in to
- 37:35Speaker 2: play a one off game to drum off some community support.
- 37:38Speaker 2: I'm thinking t RN as a striker.
- 37:40Speaker 22: Got to be a very s boots Yeah, yeah, exactly.
- 37:43Speaker 22: Picking a couple of hammies.
- 37:44Speaker 5: What's going on else in the footy world before we
- 37:46Speaker 5: wrap up.
- 37:46Speaker 7: Well, it's all about the Crows. They fly out today.
- 37:50Speaker 22: So big game, as we know, Sammy, you know, it
- 37:52Speaker 22: looks like they're probably going to make four or five changes.
- 37:55Speaker 22: I just wonder whether or not they're going to make
- 37:57Speaker 22: a big call it selection and you know, perhaps one
- 38:00Speaker 22: of the more senior players comes.
- 38:02Speaker 5: Out of the text going to be on the plane.
- 38:05Speaker 22: Well I don't think he was going to be had
- 38:07Speaker 22: he not announced his retirement, but now that he has,
- 38:11Speaker 22: there's only potentially three games left, hopefully more hopefully there's
- 38:14Speaker 22: six or seven games left, but I think there's a
- 38:18Speaker 22: chance he might go over. I think that discussion was
- 38:21Speaker 22: being had as late as yesterday afternoon.
- 38:23Speaker 7: So big call.
- 38:24Speaker 22: I mean, it's their biggest game of the year, isn't it.
- 38:26Speaker 22: So they're going a day early, which they do sometimes
- 38:29Speaker 22: when they go to the West. They play Friday night.
- 38:31Speaker 22: So usually in a wayside ned as you know, goes
- 38:34Speaker 22: before the day before the game, but they're going two
- 38:37Speaker 22: days before just to get themselves.
- 38:39Speaker 7: It is a long trip over to Earth.
- 38:40Speaker 4: It's a great trip over there though. To Perth.
- 38:42Speaker 7: You enjoyed.
- 38:43Speaker 4: That's Fremantle.
- 38:44Speaker 3: They've got the markets there, it's on the beach, it's
- 38:46Speaker 3: a great city.
- 38:48Speaker 4: Earth trip is one of the good ones.
- 38:49Speaker 5: I wouldn't have thought that.
- 38:50Speaker 3: No, I love going, but I used to love it
- 38:52Speaker 3: because they have all the arenas and I used to
- 38:54Speaker 3: walk down and before any of the Perth or West
- 38:57Speaker 3: Coast games, I wasn't probably not the best prep, but
- 39:00Speaker 3: just talked about four k's from the hotel and go
- 39:02Speaker 3: to the marina and.
- 39:03Speaker 4: Look at all their infrastructure with all the dry stacking
- 39:05Speaker 4: and stuff.
- 39:06Speaker 5: How did you use to play in Perth?
- 39:08Speaker 4: I can't remember. I think I was all.
- 39:09Speaker 22: Right, tough, yeah, and look difficult. They haven't lost their
- 39:13Speaker 22: all season porter as we know. I mean a chance
- 39:16Speaker 22: that Jason horn Francis comes in. But why exactly why?
- 39:20Speaker 22: Sammy spot On? Spot On?
- 39:22Speaker 4: Can you tell him? Sammy?
- 39:24Speaker 7: Yeah, the voice of reason?
- 39:25Speaker 5: Do you do you reckon? Josh Carl listens? If you're listening, Car.
- 39:28Speaker 22: Don't I think he's I think he's all over. I'd
- 39:31Speaker 22: say put him in the ice bath.
- 39:32Speaker 5: But yeah, bit cheeky.
- 39:36Speaker 4: Can I say something? This is totally unrelated to sport.
- 39:39Speaker 3: Why is Jim Chalmers blaming global conflict conflict on Australia's inflation?
- 39:43Speaker 2: You want to know what I say to that. Let's
- 39:44Speaker 2: leave that to this willing stace. Nine minutes of six.
- 39:47Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Tommy. We're going to get to
- 39:48Speaker 2: a quick break, Jay, Michael Tony hang on the line
- 39:51Speaker 2: back in a moment, need.
- 39:52Speaker 1: Me, Henry and Sam daddo five double a early breakfast.
- 40:01Speaker 2: I mean it's a sixt icing and will coming up
- 40:02Speaker 2: with five double a breakfast. But let's get to some
- 40:05Speaker 2: calls before we wrap up this morning. I talk about
- 40:07Speaker 2: Jim Thomas on the inside to the end diving Redwood Park.
- 40:10Speaker 5: Good morning.
- 40:11Speaker 18: Anyways, I must to clean a few windows. I reckon
- 40:15Speaker 18: when he's opened a box of worms with these painting
- 40:19Speaker 18: of players. I was in England obviously came in when
- 40:22Speaker 18: I was forty year old in and around football. Never
- 40:25Speaker 18: heard of anybody being played in the lower divisions I
- 40:29Speaker 18: got here. I'm not going to name the club. I
- 40:31Speaker 18: ended up being chairman of the juniors after about two
- 40:35Speaker 18: years of being in the country Aerial ping pongk sorry,
- 40:40Speaker 18: and basically they were five is six and they were
- 40:44Speaker 18: paying players and I were godsmite. But I was on
- 40:49Speaker 18: and the juniors used to complain about this, and I
- 40:51Speaker 18: was on the committee of this juniors and also on
- 40:54Speaker 18: the sporting club committee. And the thing is that without juniors,
- 40:58Speaker 18: there's no seniors. Without seasons, there's no juniors.
- 41:03Speaker 14: And the.
- 41:05Speaker 18: Amount of stuff that the kids get here now when
- 41:09Speaker 18: we run our club back in England we were running
- 41:12Speaker 18: a junior club how of a pub, playing in the
- 41:15Speaker 18: local park, sometimes having to get changed in our cars,
- 41:19Speaker 18: where whereas in all the clubs now, I mean I
- 41:22Speaker 18: will pass mobile oaks, most mornings are most nice and
- 41:27Speaker 18: the clubhouse is unbelievably fantastic. I'm still involved with the
- 41:32Speaker 18: club that I've been involved with for twenty two years,
- 41:35Speaker 18: and my lad's got mates and my best mate was
- 41:38Speaker 18: the coach of my lad. We're in a twelve year
- 41:40Speaker 18: old and he couldn't even play the game. To be fair,
- 41:43Speaker 18: we've never seen the funny shaped board that bounces into
- 41:47Speaker 18: different directions. But yeah, I mean then he's opened a
- 41:52Speaker 18: bit of a cada worms. But like I say, the
- 41:57Speaker 18: set up that the juniors have now wouldn't fifty where
- 42:00Speaker 18: it's serious in.
- 42:02Speaker 2: Vice versa, Thank you Dave, Sorry mate, we got to
- 42:04Speaker 2: move on. We are running out of time. Tony in
- 42:07Speaker 2: seat and good morning, gentlemen.
- 42:09Speaker 18: Why don't you go to ships thirty because the left
- 42:11Speaker 18: half and I was pretty for it.
- 42:13Speaker 5: Well, Tony, you're just ringing up these days just to
- 42:16Speaker 5: be a news.
- 42:16Speaker 3: And that's silly, Tony, I love. That's just such a
- 42:19Speaker 3: stupid comment.
- 42:20Speaker 2: Michael and Rosstravor, Good morning, Top of the Morning from
- 42:23Speaker 2: the TURINGI the comment about the football and paying, you know,
- 42:26Speaker 2: back in the eighties when I.
- 42:27Speaker 9: Was playing Hills football unheard of, but Ned, I want
- 42:30Speaker 9: to go on to was it you some time ago
- 42:34Speaker 9: used to say the the Iron Triangle football teams were
- 42:38Speaker 9: paying very large amounts of money for players come up
- 42:40Speaker 9: from Adelaide to play that league and we're talking you.
- 42:44Speaker 5: Know, three thousand. Was that right it Michael?
- 42:47Speaker 9: But hang on for your answer. One other comment is
- 42:51Speaker 9: the wealth of a football club recognized by the amount
- 42:54Speaker 9: of sponsorship around the oval with.
- 42:56Speaker 3: Signage too, Michael, No, I don't think necessarily, although it
- 43:01Speaker 3: would have an impact how much money you can raise
- 43:03Speaker 3: at the footy club would then contribute to match payments.
- 43:06Speaker 4: However, every club has a salary cap.
- 43:08Speaker 3: It's just that some clubs choose to not follow that
- 43:10Speaker 3: salary cap and play sorry, pay players under the table.
- 43:14Speaker 3: I know of country footballers who are being offered thousands
- 43:18Speaker 3: and thousands and thousands of.
- 43:19Speaker 4: Dollars to go and play there weekly.
- 43:21Speaker 2: Andrew on the text line Jim Chalmers blaming inflation on
- 43:24Speaker 2: the Middle East is straight out denial. The Reserve Bank
- 43:26Speaker 2: have said inflation was too high before the conflict and
- 43:29Speaker 2: that government overspending is the major reason.
- 43:32Speaker 5: Ned you've got a midted and ten seconds.
- 43:33Speaker 3: I'm not an economist, and I don't pretend to be right,
- 43:36Speaker 3: and I'm also a common man, and I think feel
- 43:39Speaker 3: like we have a lot of listeners who are in
- 43:41Speaker 3: that same frame of mind looking at it simply, isn't
- 43:43Speaker 3: that just so unrealistic and so unreasonable to suggest that
- 43:47Speaker 3: Australia wasn't in an inflationary crisis pre war.
- 43:50Speaker 4: Like what you cannot say that we were just.
- 43:53Speaker 3: Trending beautifully from an inflation perspective pre around conflict and
- 43:59Speaker 3: all of a sudden that's been the reason why we've
- 44:01Speaker 3: hit these roadblocks.
- 44:02Speaker 4: That's just ridiculous.
- 44:03Speaker 3: What happened was COVID and the Labor government with COVID,
- 44:07Speaker 3: That's what it was.
- 44:08Speaker 4: It's just a joke, Like it's an absolute joke.
- 44:11Speaker 3: The COVID time is the reason why our grandkids will
- 44:14Speaker 3: be paying the tax rates that we are paying.
- 44:17Speaker 5: Anyway, feel better, Well, I do feel a bit better.
- 44:20Speaker 3: It was just economic mismanagement during that time. Do you
- 44:23Speaker 3: agree with that or not?
- 44:24Speaker 5: Yeah, let's go.
- 44:25Speaker 2: We're getting very heavy for a news Buddhism that it's
- 44:27Speaker 2: about to come up. Yeah, anyway, Jake ned Jim Charms
- 44:31Speaker 2: is stuffing up the country.
- 44:33Speaker 4: I don't think he's doing a very good job.
- 44:34Speaker 3: And I think there's a lot of politicians that have
- 44:36Speaker 3: been in politics their whole life career, politicians that don't
- 44:40Speaker 3: have any out of industry experience. I mean, it's just
- 44:44Speaker 3: crazy to think that people get handed portfolios and responsibilities
- 44:48Speaker 3: in portfolios of which.
- 44:49Speaker 7: They've never worked in.
- 44:51Speaker 5: We're going to get out of that.
- 44:52Speaker 3: Politicians you know, in forestry or primary production that have
- 44:55Speaker 3: never worked in that space in their life. How is
- 44:59Speaker 3: that even possible? The whole system needs race structure. It's
- 45:02Speaker 3: just crazy.
- 45:02Speaker 4: It's crazy for someone who doesn't get it.
- 45:04Speaker 2: It is crazy time for the news. Stacey and Will
- 45:07Speaker 2: coming up after six o'clock. David Koshi were chatting the
