  Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to No Dribble, of the podcast where
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: we talk about netball, but we talk about so much more.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: And it is the first week of sunshine after the
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: three weeks of the storm of the sun Corps Super
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Netball signings period, and my god, we have a lot
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: to talk about. Two of us will have a lot
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: to talk about. One of us is not feeling very
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: well at all, but has joined us anyway. I'm Carolyn Swindell,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: I'm Catherine Cox.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: And I'm Lizellis. Who's the impact player today?
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: That that is Lozelliszells.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Something terrible sweeping across the Northern rivers, your poor thing.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: So no prize is for guessing which of the three
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: No Dribble hosts is not feeling one hundred percent today.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: But thank you for dragging yourself out of you. I'd
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: say your deathbed, but you've been up for hours driving
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: children around.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Well. And also, I actually feel better today. Just my
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: voice sounds bad. I felt dreadful over the weekend, but
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: you know when you're a pair of and you just
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: kind of have a sickie, right. So Friday night I
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: took my daughter to rugby semifinals. Saturday was soccer and netball,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: and then we got on a plane and flew to
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Sydney and Everylyn had had a training thing all day
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: for netball because she was talent ID at Junior State
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: champs and which was really exciting. But I sat there
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: and just felt like death. So I got home, so
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: I just want to go to bed. Oh that's right,
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: I've got the podcast at night.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: How do the kids do that?
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: Like it's tough for you to follow them around, but
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: they're actually physically doing so. She had three sports across
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: the weekend, including flying to Sydney.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Catherine, you've really missed the point here. We're not we're
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: not focusing on the children.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: All the sympathy, absolutely, but far out. How is sheep pulled?
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Oh she's fine. She's off to school. She had yesterday
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: off because we came home yesterday, and then she's going
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: to school today, and then on Wednesday she's playing AFL
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: And on Friday, all day she's umpiring at a primary
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: school netball thing, and then Friday night she's got to
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: run the Union Gram final. I'm just laughing.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: Oh, the some of these kids get their licenses, the
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: better far out. I mean, you'll still go totally.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: But you know, like she misses so much school. But
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: and I was going to tell you how smart she is,
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: but let me tell you how dumb she is. Right,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: and so she's a straight A student grade at everything,
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: but cannot spell. So on the way down on the
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: plane on Saturday afternoon, we're listening to her playlist. We're
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: sharing iPods and Greece. You know, the song from Grease
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: came on and I said, oh, why do you like
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: this song? She goes, oh, it's a great song. I said,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: have you seen the movie? She goes no. I said,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: oh my god, let's watch the movie tonight. So we
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: go for dinner, we come back to the hotel, all
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: excited to sit down watch the movie. There's bits where
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: you cringe, where you go, I'm watching this with my
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: thirteen year olds, so rude. And I sort of was
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: watching her out the corner of my eye, thinking, oh, good,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: that went over her head. And then there are other bits,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: and she looked at me and I'm like, yeah, no,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: it's not good, but it's just it's funny, right, so
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: go with it. So we get to the end, and
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: you know when they fly off into the into the clouds, Yeah,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: I've also did you like it? She goes well? Is
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: that when they go to Greece.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Land?
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: How confusing to watch that whole movie thinking I've not
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: seen a single olive, There's no uzzo in this Where
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: is the acropolis?
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Where's the fetter? Because she's food obsessed like me, where's
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: the f where's the ski?
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: So I said, well, what do you mean she goes
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: well Greece? I'm like, bade Greece is g r e
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: e c Greece?
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: Oh my god? I love that she went the whole
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: way through the movie, though, did you say you need
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: to watch Greece too? Because that's when they land and
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: then it's a whole different adventure.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Just quietly for the record, Grease Too is a ship movie.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: But it's terrible, isn't it.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I said to Michelle Pfeiffer in that I think it.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: Was I reckon.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: You could be right, Natalie Cars knew it was going
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: to they I mean, they all knew it was going
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: to be crack because none of them came back, did they?
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: No? None?
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: But they all had to have graduated from high school,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: that is true.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: Five is the second one at high school.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Still I can't remember I've purged it from my memory.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I can't remember anyway. On the plight of the way home, can.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: You watch Greece too and give us the summer?
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, one of the dribblers will be able to give
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: us a summary.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: But the best bridesmaid I never had.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Yes. So yeah, So we're coming home, and Evelyn te
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: me she said, I have to watch that movie again
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: now that I can concentrate on them not going to Greece.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: And think more about lubricating oil for cars and stuff.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But you know, I actually after the movie, I
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: went down the rabbit hole a bit because I was like, oh,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: you know when you watch a movie and you start
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: to look at like because I was trying to explain
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: things to her, and I started to google things, and
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: I didn't realize that Greece was a music or the
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: stage musical before it became a movie, and it was
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: set in Chicago. The original stage musical was written in Chicago,
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: and Sandy wasn't Australian. Sandy was a Polish girl, Sandy
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Debroski or something like that in the original play, and
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: she got kicked out of a Catholic school and ended
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: up at the public school. And I thought, God, she
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: sounds like coxy.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, So she wasn't. So the original Sandy
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: was a rebel, like it wasn't the good Shoes.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Well yeah, but she wasn't. She wasn't as goody two
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: shoes and primum and proper as living it and John
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Sandy was so I was. It's really fascinating to go
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: and read the backstory and then how they when they
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: made it into a movie, they turned it, they put
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: it in California and made it brighter and more all
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: American American pie. But the original one is really gritty
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: and really a lot more like sex and violence and
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: gang violence and all that sort of stuff, which I
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: think is so fascinating. And then it gets Hollywood eyed
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: and turned into this right bright, shiny thing where they
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: drive off into the clouds at the end, which is
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: so POxy. And but the other thing we did afterwards,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: we actually started googling John Travolta and just watching videos
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: of him dancing, and she's Everyone's like, my god, she's fired.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: I thought, my god, wait till I show you pulp fiction.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but what about Saturday Night Fever? Was that the
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: how is that? Watching that?
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: There was oliving Newton, John and John Travolta did a
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Christmas song. It must be it's more than twenty years
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: ago now, but it was a long time after their heyday.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: It is the worst piece of Christmas excrement you will
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: ever see, and the most embarrassing film clip. I think
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: it's called I'm Coming Home for Christmas, and I post
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: it every year on Facebook because it's like, we must
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: never forget that this has happened in the name of Christmas.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: I feel like John would be pulling it down, was he?
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: What was it?
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Both of them were? They both bad, both bad.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: And both bad, but you can tell they were just
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: doing it as a as a friendship project projects. So
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: my kids, it's deeply ironic that both of my children
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: will end up at Catholic secondary schools because they have
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: been brought up with zero religion. And one night I
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: was watching what I pulled up a movie to watch
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: with them, and it was that Evan Almighty with prel
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: So if you don't know it, it's the kind of
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Noah's Ark story with this guy believes he has to
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: build an arc and I'm watching it with the kids,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: and then but almost three quarters of the way through
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: They're sort of like, what, what's why? Why is he
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: doing this? And they had no idea of the story
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: of Noah's Ark. It's all right, I'm failing you because
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: whether or not you believe it religiously, it's important culturally, right,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: So it's like, yeah, I can see this movie would
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: make no sense at all.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: So that's funny because you teach ethics, don't you. Yes,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: you kids primary school, So Mike kids both went to
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: a public primary school, and Eviden's now gone to a
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Catholic high school. And Austin keeps saying to me, why
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: do I have to do scripture? I'm like, mate, you're
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: doing scripture and I think I should say to him,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: so you can learn about Jesus and God because we're Catholic. Mate,
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: when you go to these art galleries in Europe, you've
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: got to know the backstory.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, so true.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Oh that's not.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: It all is funny because I was the same. I
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: went to a just just for a moment.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Though. When you go to these art galleries in Europe,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: it's do we have privileged children? I think we might.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: I know, that's a great way to start a sentence. No,
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: I was the same.
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: But my thing when I got to high school was
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: you know when everybody goes up and.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Gets the Holy Communion, so it's called the biscuit.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: The biscuit, I think it's the body of Christ, and
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I believe it's a wafer.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: No, but see this.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: Is my When I first saw it, I was like, oh,
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: bring me back some biscuit.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: And they're like, you can't. You got to eat it
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: up there. And I just get them a good a
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: little bit in your pocket.
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: And they're like, Catherine, you don't want it while you're out.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: Well, they don't do that anymore, do they post COVID.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: Everybody used to drink from the same cup.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what's happened to Liz I reckon. Yeah, yeah,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: from the skull.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: In the church wine. Yeah, not the first time.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: But welcome back, I thank you. Give us the update.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: How did the girls go on the weekend?
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Well, selfishly, I was happy because they got rained out.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: Oh I didn't miss anything, which is.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Friday night, because Saturday morning was blue skies and beautiful.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: It was horrendous, So they canceled it. So I sent
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: on our group chat. Oh I'm sorry, guys, but I'm
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: actually really happy. About this. Yeah, I get to be
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: there for next week. But they made a very controversial
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: decision that because we had beaten this team that we
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: were playing twice throughout the season, they've just let us
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: go through so the game won't get played, which obviously
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: we're pumped about. But of course you put yourself in
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: the shoes of the other side straight away, and I thought, oh,
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: I don't know how it feels about that, but that
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: was the call that was made. So now we're playing
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: the prelim final on Friday night.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Well, that's exciting. Cost we had that at Summer Netball
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: last year that it was a draw and because they
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: finished the ladder higher than we did, and it's like
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Summer Netball, we go start another game, get out. It's
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: like they had no overtime to play, and it's like, oh, well,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: I guess that's life. We should have finished higher on
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the ladder. We should but it's very hollow, like because
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: we were.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: Pumped and yeah, anyway, so yes, we're through and playing
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: a team that we haven't beaten yet this season, but
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: apparently both of our losses were.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: By just two points, so we can do it. I'm excited.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: So you were up in the sunshine on the weekend though.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: It was absolutely magic.
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: We went up to flew up to Harvey Bay and
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: then the fam drove past and picked us up because
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: they came from the Gold Coast, and then we went
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: a little bit further north. But it was beautiful and
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: it was warm in the ocean, swimming magic.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: And then all I kept seeing was these big potholes
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: that showing up in.
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: Sydney and all this rain and all the sport being canceled,
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: and it was depressing. But we had some beautiful family time.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: The weather was mint and yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: how depressing it was here week Saturday, Saturday, Sundays.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: The weekend was up. But actually it was really annoying
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: because for this weekend I had no kids sports. So
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: at my son's school, they flogged them with sport. At
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: this school, like they have to go and watch a
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: full day of rugby in the rugby season. So this
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: is the week between winter sport and summer sport. They've
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: got a weekend off the borders can go home or
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: just get out of there or whatever. So we didn't
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: have sport for him. Obviously, we didn't have sport for
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: her because netball was we were bundled out, bundled out
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: in last place, and all I wanted was these weeks
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and weeks of hideous rain that we've had, these dark
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: mornings when you have to get out of bed and
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: get moving. All I wanted was for it to rain
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: on Saturday morning, buddy blue sky.
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: All the time, and then you felt like you had
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: to get up because you didn't want to waste it.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, Eventually I battled, I battled through sunshine coming through
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the window and still read the paper in bed with
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: a coffee. I know, thank you, very brave.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: Nothing but a trooper. Hey, can I tell you what happened?
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Though?
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: When I did get home, I picked my car up
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: at the airport, and I discovered something that made me
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: unreasonably irate, to the point that I thought.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: Why is this annoying me so badly?
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Like? Is that a pre perimenopausal thing? Or why would
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: such such a tiny thing piss me off? But I'm
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: going to ask you about yours, if anything like that's
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: happened to you. So I park my car at Park
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: and Fly, So you drop your car off, they park
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: it for you, and then you come back and they
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: tell you where it is and you go and get
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: it in the car, pap. Anyway, I got in my
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: car and they had adjusted all of my settings, like
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: my car seat was right forward, all of my mirrors
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: were changed.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: That was me.
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: I went into a fit, the swearing that came out
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: of my mouth because I had to move my seat
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: back and adjust my mirrors, and I thought, what is
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: wrong with me?
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Does that ever happen wrong with you? I don't know
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: you what if they didn't adjust all that and they
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: drove your car into a wall because I was a
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: short person who couldn't see.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Trying to remind myself at the time when I was
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: going to this fit of rage that somebody had adjusted me.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: It's so funny, isn't it When you just get triggered
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: by something and it's like, this is entirely unreasonable all
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: the time. And this is funny because we rarely do
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: any prep for this podcast. All there's a peak behind
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: the curtain. But Kat said it's a note last night
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: saying have it think about things that make you unreasonably irate?
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: And I've been thinking about it, and this morning I'm
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: with my family over breakfast, and I said, I'm just
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: trying to think of things that make me unreasonably irate,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: and they all loaded in on me this would have this.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: So my daughter reminded me, I really dislike her very
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: large water bottle. It just it annoys me so much,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: this giant water bottle of her. And my husband pointed
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: out that I have a bit of an issue with
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: the settings on the range hood if someone puts it
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: on the wrong setting. But it's like they're just all
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: piling in on these things. And I pointed out to
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: them that what I was looking for were things that
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: I would get unreasonably irate about. All of those things
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: it's perfectly legitimate for me to get irate about.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: But how's that like that?
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Obviously it was just the floodgates open. It was like
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: a therapy session. Thank god, we can tell her what what.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: Because it's bigger than you do. You feel like.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Kids walking around with these like six liters of water
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: in it. It's like we're not, like, what what's happened
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: to us as a species that we can't go fifteen
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: minutes without without water? Now, it's hydration is important, but yeah,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: it's so. And it's just I don't think she's even
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: drinking that much water. She's just curting this bloody thing around.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: Oh remember when we were kids, you just drink out
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: of taps, Yes days, weren't they. Someone you bike past
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: someone's house, Oh there's a hose, I need to drink
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: or drink out of the hose. Well.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I remember doing sport in primary school in Queensland and
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: we had this day and it was just you know,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: it was it was Queensland in summer. It was stinking
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: hot and the teachers just said no, you can't stop
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: for a drink at the moment. And it was like, okay,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: this is actually really hot now. So I think about
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: upon that and think, if that's the day I remember,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: they were probably a bit irresponsible actually, like if the
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: children are saying we're thirsty, because trying to get my
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: kids to actually drink water is very difficult, trying to
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: get my daughter to carry around this bloody frank green thing.
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: It's a frank green yeah, yeah, there it is around
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: the bottom of it.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: But there's all of the frank green knockoffs too, And
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: it's like, we have more water bottles in this house now,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: we will be well past the apocalypse. We'll be fine
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: for water bottles.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: You notice the car cup holders don't cater for the
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: dirty big Frank.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: Green drink bottles either.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: No, a tragedy.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: We've gone away from Frank Green's. They're not robust enough.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: They bust. I don't know if my kids are overly
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: rough with their water bottles. But we've moved to the yetties.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: They stand up a bit better.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we have in the house too.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: You're for Elizabeth unreasonable mate. Please tell me because I'm
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: feel like a bit of a crazy.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, so funny because when I wasn't. You will
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: appreciate this, Catherine. When I was an athlete, I was
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: all about perfectionism training, Like I wanted perfection in training
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: and the game and like dotting your eyes and crossing
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: your t's. But my husband, the meat tray, his quest
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: for perfectionism in the house kills me. Does my head
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: in like the dishwasher has to be done perfectly. When
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: he hangs out clothes. He hangs out the undies with
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: two pegs per pair of underpants, and it gets cross
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: at me when I use a single peg. I'm like, dude,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. Oh he goes. I can feel it
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: when I wear them.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: Had delicate little.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Exactly my god, mate, they're not that tender anyway. The
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: thing that really annoys me. I was thinking about this, Catherine,
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: so thank you for the heads up. I hate it
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: when people hold their cutlery incorrectly, and I hate seeing
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: people use their fork as like a scooper. Your fork
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: should be prongs down when you eat. And I caught
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: my daughter using prongs up yesterday and I was like, no, no, no, no, no,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: you're not eating that chicken prongs up like its prongs down.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: Do it? And when I see people, it's all I
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: can do to not go and say put your prongs down.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: But I think that would.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: Be weird question when you have your eating properly, I
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: agree with you, it's meant to be prongs down if
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: you then scoop and put it in the other hand,
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: put your knife down.
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: What that allowed?
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: No? No, not allowed?
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: Well, because it's not.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Like you're not like that, you're kind of you're doing
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: it properly, and then you just put one down and just.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: Doing a different sound effect when you're doing it with
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: the different hand doesn't actually make it.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: It does.
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: It looks much more priven. I'll give you an example
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: later and you can tell me.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: No, but I hold my cutloring the opposite hand, so
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: I never I would never think to swap anyway. No,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: you just can't wait.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Do you always have your cutlery in opposite hands? You
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: have your force in the right Yes.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: And it's funny because are you kidding?
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: How do I not know this about you?
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: Do you not notice?
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: So I can't believe you have a fork in your
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: right hand and you're not in your left hand? And
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: funny because so differently about this podcast?
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: Well I know, and so I set the table wrong,
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: and whenever I set the table, I set it for
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: me and no one else.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: So you're kissing everybody else totally.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Maybe that should be the question, what are the things
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: that I do that piss other people off?
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: No, I don't know that.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: Apparently they love that.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: That's the best day apart from Christmas days when you
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: get to.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: Pile on to your mother. No, but I think so.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: My mum's left handed, and so someone said to me,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: I do think that's like, that's your left handedness coming
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: out because your mum's left handed. And I actually think
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: it was because when I was a kid, I have
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: this vague memory of wanting to be different. So I
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: watched what everyone did with their knife and fork and
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: swapped it and just baked myself eat the other way.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: So wait, what does kath Ellis do then? Like, it's
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: not because it's a certain way.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: No, she it's like a normal human. Mummy, Mummy, it's
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: like a normal human. She's left handed, but she it's
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: like normal human. It's mean, it's abnormal.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Gob Smacked that I did not know this about you.
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: How many meals would we have had together over the years.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: A fancy restaurant's castine now with prongs down?
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: How do you not notably shocked? Wow? Wow, there you go.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: I was today years old. Everybody, Yeah, as a surprise
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: that I have picked that up.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: So what about this? This one is is actually this
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: is a test. The toilet roll paper over the top
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: or under?
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: What?
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: All day? It comes to you that way? If you
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: go over, it goes down to the ground. I want
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: to delivered.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: I'm with you, Carol, and it's over, thank you.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: So I will I try not to get to you
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: wound up about this, but if like if I go
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: to your house and I see that it's under, I
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: will assume that you want me to fix that for you,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: and I will I won't tell you that I've done
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: this beautiful thing.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: I would notice.
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: Funny, Mum and Dad are the same, so anytime and
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: my sister actually anytime I go and visit there.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: But I would never change.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: It, really, yeah, why not?
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: Because it doesn't annoy me unreasonably.
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: It's not one of those ones that will do my
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: head in there you go, what about scrunching or folding?
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: Then once you get your toilt paper off the wrong way?
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I've been asked that before. I think
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: I think I have different strokes for different strokes.
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: As long as there's no hole in the paper, you
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: don't want it.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: On your finger.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: Okay, oh wow, we cover all the good topics on
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: no Dribble. We we haven't.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: But Liz, one thing I was thinking about when you
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: were talking about how unwell you were this morning and
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: joining us is there's a movie called Bad Mums. Have
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: you seen that one? Chris Bell is in it, and
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: she's got this bit and I relate so hard to this.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: She's got a lot of young kids, and she said,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: sometimes I just wish I could have a small accident,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: not life threatening, but just enough that I have to
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: go to hospital, just for a couple.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Of days, for a bit of a break.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: And it's like I would love that so much, like
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: I had. I had both my babies at the north
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Shore Private Hospital and like that room was nice, but
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I was in no shape to really enjoy, you know,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: just you're so exhausted and whatever. And it's like I'd
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: love to go back there for a couple of days. Now.
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: The good thing is at least I mean, you get
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: away a lot, don't you, Lise. But when you're going away,
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: your flat shat doing other things. So it's not like
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: it's any kind of downtime, is it.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: No. And I although when I first moved up here
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: and I was traveling, I was having a wings to
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: a woman who I met who had three little kids,
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: and I say, I've got to travel so much. It's
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: such a pain. She goes, hang on, when you travel,
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: do you get a room a motel? Just saying night yep?
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: Do you get a motel room yep? By yourself?
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: She was like oh, And I thought, you know what,
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: I just have to totally adjust my attitude, stop winging
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: and start appreciating the other.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Thing I do when I get to a hotel room
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: it's it's not like the sleep.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: But I'll have a very long shower, just an uninterrupted
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: long shower, not worrying about, you know, over steaming your
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: own bathroom at home or anything like that. Just love
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: it and I'll have lots of them while I'm away.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: Weird.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's weird. I think it's nice to
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: be able to settle into your space.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: Funny. Can I tell you on the weekend while I
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: was in Sydney, I did catch up with Briani Akle
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: for a meal and she looks like she's been through
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: a wheat storm, saying that, can you imagine trying to
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: put your team together and talk to athletes and figure
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: out what's happening. So I just gave a big hargan,
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: pulled the red.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and spare thought too for like the player managers,
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: because one of our girlfriends, Meghan Anderson, is doing that
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: now and it's been like that's hectic too, Like trying
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: to find teams for your athletes and you know, waiting
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: to see what decisions are made before you can go to.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: That clob or go to that club or what's available.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: That would be very very stressful. But I mean good
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: to see it's all done and dusted. Now.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got to say though, and I haven't. I haven't.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: It's not a conversation with the chair of Netball Australia.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: This is just me absolute conjecture. I reckon, they're going
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: to have to change the rules on the number of internationals.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: What have we got eight or nine? Kiwis now it's
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: like that is we have a lot of internationals. So anyway, I.
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: Must say, though I do love there's a couple of
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: our Aussies that are back home. So Gabbie Sinclair was
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: signed the last signing for the Sunshine Coast Lightning and
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: she'll be a great pick up obviously losing stuff for
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: it well. And Danell Wallam back of course for the
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: Sunshine Coast Lightning as well. So it's great to see
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: so many of the Aussies, well not so many, but
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: it's good to see the Aussies back where they belong,
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: not having a team, not finding.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: A space to fit.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: Now they've just got to wait for those ebbs and
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: flows and spots to open. And I can't wait to
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: see what they do next year.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: And when I say they have to change the number
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: of internationals, I guess the question has to be asked
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: is is you know do we need to change this?
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Because I'm not. Yeah, I must say I'm shocked at
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: the number of kiwis that we have. I'm excited. I
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: think it's going to be a bloody great season of netball,
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: but I do think there are implications for it, and
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: I guess that that's something that the owners of the
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: competition will have to be considering, is that you know
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: how to use it for its best service to Australian network.
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: Are you genuinely shocked though, because obviously they aren't. That's
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: why they've had in place that rule for so long,
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: because I meanwhile, they not want to be over here
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: playing the best camp in the league. I feel for
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: them because their comp is going to really suffer. But
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: you're right there, like on the flip side, how lucky
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: are we?
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah? We are? And look, as you know, I'm in
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: New Zealand. I'm a New Zealand born Australian and I'll
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: always support Australia against New Zealand, but New Zealand against
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: anyone else. But I was really interested to see in
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: a bunch of other netball groups on Facebook over the
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: last couple of weeks Ke was getting really cocky, going, yeah, yeah,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: our girls are coming over here. It's like, I don't
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: think you understand this is not a great thing for
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: New Zealand netball, like it's a great thing for Australian netball.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: But anyway, I think the flip side is, yeah, there's
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: a heap of the Silver fans that have come over,
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: but there's still sixty Australians playing in the camp now.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: It would be great to have more teams and more
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: positions so that more young players have that and that's
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: something that I think the sport will look at going forward.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: But the other thing is that it gives Like when
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Grace Weeky came and played in that Constellation Cup last year,
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: she took everyone by surprise, not themost by surprise because
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: they would have been looking at video and they would
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: have seen her. But there's something different to actually doing
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: your analysis and then playing on Now we've had every
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Australian Diamonds defender playing against her a couple of times
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: through the season, so you know.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: And they worked out well.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, she's a brilliant player and she's
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: really she looks like she'd be really difficult to play against,
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: but now they've got a sense of what works and
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: what doesn't. So when you meet her, like you see
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: you play the Kiwi's at the end of your World
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Cup in the semifinals or the finals or the come
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: Wealth Games, and sometimes, like I used to find, it
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: would take me thirty minutes to go right, Okay, this
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: is what I've got to do, whereas having played against
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: these players and the domestic we'll get the Diamonds, will
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: get there and go okay, this is what I know
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: that she does and they've had a good look at it.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: I mean conversely, the Silver Ferns players will also have
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: had that and I just think it's great for world netball.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: But let's not forget. And I think it was I
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: think it was Daryl, our friend Daryl who did the stats,
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: and there's something like there's lots of internationals, but you
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: know there's still seventy five percent of the competition that
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: are Australian.
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: I think this is an absolute master stroke from Noline
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: Tadua because she knows you get one player over here,
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: then the pressure is suddenly on Netbull New Zealand to
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: allow it because they can't play internationally. Without Grace, they can't.
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: It's a fact they would. I mean, they're slipping down
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: the rankings as it is. They're missing out on World
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: Cup finals, they're missing out of Comnwalth Games finals. England
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: so much stronger, Jamaica so much stronger, all from playing
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: in the best competition in the world. New Zealand had
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: to be in it to compete on the world stage,
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: I reckon otherwise they're going to go out the back door.
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: So this has been a master stroke I think from her.
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: And whilst it was Grace that made the decision, I
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: think she was very much behind the scenes in potentially
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: encouraging it for her to be a better player, but
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: maybe even knowing what that was going to do down
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: the track. But the New Zealand, as you say, is
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: like it's definitely going to be easier for the Australians,
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: but New Zealand netball I think will take massive steps
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: forward off the back of a one or two years
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: of their players here, which is.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Good for world network.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: Great, great for world network.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and so you have to decide what the purpose
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: of super netball is. Is it to develop diamonds. In
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: that case, you don't have any imports or is it
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: to be the best league in the world with the
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: best players. In that case, it's unlimited, like it's almost
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: like you have one or the other. Anyways, it's a
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know what the answer is, and it's there's
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: no ruder wrong, and everyone's got opinions. But I think
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: it's great that our sport is having these really interesting
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: conversations out loud, because we should pull it apart and
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: look at it and say, well, what's the purpose and
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: why are we investing in this and what are we doing?
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: And then that allows you to get to a competition
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: that serves a purpose that you want.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: But also you know, it's not one or the other,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: is that this is not a binary thing. It's not
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: like the world's best comp or developed diamonds. Well, you
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: develop diamonds in the world's best comp so so absolutely
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: it's probably the next tier of players who, you know,
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: the ones who are diamonds aspirants who may not ever
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: get there. They're the ones who might suffer from this.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: But this is not a this is not at the
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: expense of the diamonds, no.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: But the good thing about that is there are other
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: leagues that they can go and play in for that
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: experience which we've just spoken about, like Gabby Sinclair leaving
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: the Magpies going to the UK, haven't a great season there.
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: She's now got a spot back here, so I think
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: that's that is great.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Few vacancies in New Zealand, fair few vacancies.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: In Yeah, Sophie Fawns has gone to England, right, so
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: she'll get a heap more court time there and that'll
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: only improve her game. So yeah, I just think we're
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: seeing the evolution of the sport and there's probably there's
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: always going to be difficult conversations and difficult decisions. You know,
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: that's you know, that's the life of the sports administrator.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: You know. The example is Catherine that you gave at
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: the start of the podcast about that you're taking the
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: decision that you know your little team goes through to
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: the final because you beat the semi finalists twice. Right,
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: at every level you've got to make tough decisions and
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: you know, the decisions around this are the same. But
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: the end of the day, that's like, it's good to
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: talk about it.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: Can we go back to the little team decision then
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: and the tough decisions to be made around that.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: So what do you do? This is this thing.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: It's been really I've been battling with decision wise, what
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: do you do now, because we're at the level that
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: you are playing finals? Do you do equal court time
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: or do you go for the win? As I would
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: always think equal court time still because we don't want
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: to put pressure on them yet I still want them
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: to enjoy it as long as possible.
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: I don't want people sit on the sideline.
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: But then I mentioned this to one of the people
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: at netball, like the administrators, and oh.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: No, no, you got it. They've got to learn it's
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: about going for the win. At this point, I'm torn.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: I would argue, at what have you got under.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: Because I don't care if they lose. I want them
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: to enjoy it.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would be going for equal court time. The
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: whole team got them to this point, so I think
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: the whole team wins or lilies is the final. I
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: think about the age group I've been under twelves, under thirteen's,
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I think that's about the time you start to look
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: at well, for me anyway, that's about the time that
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: I would be starting to go, well, best team takes court,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: but there's also well, the best team of the one
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: who will show up all the time for training, who
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: are dedicated, who understand how to play together. Like sometimes
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: you might get a gun player who's just you know,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: swining in and it's like, well, I'm not going to
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: put them in on finals ahead of someone who has
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: been dedicated and working out. So I think it's a
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: fine balance, but certainly if I were you, I would
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: be leaning more towards Hey, girls, we all got here together.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: Let's see what we can do, yea, Liz.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: I agree. So I've got fourteens and we've played finals
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: now for a couple of years, and in the first,
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: our first grand final, I guarantee that everyone will get
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: at least a half, and we lost that Grand final,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: but I think we learned more from losing that Grand
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: final than if we had of won. And then last
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: year in the semi I actually wasn't that fair with
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: one player, and I have regretted it all seasons. So
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: I've decided this year week finals week after next got
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: one more game. I've just decided that in finals everyone
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: gets a minimum of a half. So did they got
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: a set?
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: Or parents say anything when they know they didn't know,
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: they're incredibly fair and they were fine.
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: It was just me going actually, on reflection, that wasn't
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: fair to her because we didn't win that semi and
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: what has it achieved? Yeah, whereas, and I want, like
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: the players in our team who are really good to
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: understand that actually it's not just Sem that gets it there.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: So they've got to sit off for a quarter and
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: they think that's unfair, get on and play your hard
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: out for the other three quarters. So there'll be players
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: who'll get three quarters and there'll be players who'll get
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: only a half, but they've all contributed to getting as there,
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: so they all deserve a spot. And I think at
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: under fourteen's you're at that age where you know, that's
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: where girls can start to drop off. So I don't
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: want to turn it into a cutthroat. This is all
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: about winning. Actually, this is all about being a team
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: and working together. And they all went to primary school
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: together and they've all gone to different high schools and
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: we've had a few other girls join. And I love
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: that netball is a different place for them to school
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: and it's so important, So I want them to feel valued.
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: So you know, even though we've got some rep players
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: in our team who are really good. They're not the
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: only ones who I've got a serence, you know. And
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: I've always maintained, whether you're playing for your local team
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: or whether you're playing for the Diamonds or in a
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: super Netbak Grand final, you know what you're going to
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: get out of your best players, right, They're they're given
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: the players that actually winning your finals are the players
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: and aren't the best players? And how close they get
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: to your best players? And you ain't going to get
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: them there if you give them the confidence to get there.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, But I appreciate I do appreciate
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: this a lot because it's been going back and forth
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: in my head about what.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: To do because they all want to win.
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: We want to win, we want to win. I'm like, yeah,
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: but do you want to be sitting on the sideline
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: well the team wins, And I don't like that idea
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: at all, and much rather than get the fair run like.
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: Age group, Yes, I think we do.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: So I found that really good because I had ten
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: this year, which really is it's not great because you know,
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: it's you've always then got people playing, you know, it's
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: it's just difficult to manage ten. I think nine, eight
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: or nine is perfect. But I started using rolling subs
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: and that it's less visible to the girls then who's
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: getting how much time and things, because they're all it's like,
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: you have to be ready at any time. You don't
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: have a quarter off. Now you're off, Now take a breather.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: And actually it was I was using that in the
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: last couple of games and it was really good. It
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: sort of distracted them. It enabled me to change things
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: up a little bit if someone was getting tired or whatever.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: But at the beginning of the season, I was like,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: I'm not using rolling subs. It's not it's too hard
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: to yank them off without them anticipating and they don't know.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: But actually what it did was create a little bit
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: of just a little bit of chaos for them that
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, you're off, and I lost track of
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: who got equal time, but it was about equal, but
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: no one could go, yeah you got this, and I
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: got that. Everyone got a little bit a little bit different.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: You know, it's interesting. I heard Vicky Wilson interview, and
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: you know when she talks, you listen, right, you respect
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: I respect her enormously, and she doesn't like. Yeah, she
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: doesn't like the rolling subs because she feels like it
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Sometimes a coach, you'll pull a kid off when they've
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: made a mistake rather than leave them out there and
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: let them rectifiding and get bat I absolutely agree with that,
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: but I will I've started to use the rolling stubs
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: like U caron in the last few weeks because I've
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: found where it's useful is rather than try and give
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: a player to say something to a player while she's
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: out on court watching where the ball's coming and I'm
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: listening to the coach. A few times I've said to
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: a kid who's on the sideline, run on, and I'll
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: get a player off and I'll say, right the next
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: two center passes, i want you to concentrate just on this,
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: and then I'll sud them off. And it actually allows
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: you to give a bit of feedback. But I think
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: and I did that with one plan and she goes,
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: I'm She came off and said, I'm so sorry I
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: didn't understand. I said, no, don't you be sorry. That's
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: on me because i didn't explain it to you properly.
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: Now I'm going to explain it to you properly. And
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: then I'm going to get you to go and execute.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: And I did that and she did, and the look
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: on her face she was so pumped. She was like,
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, I get it. So you've got to be
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: careful that you're not pulling a kid off when they
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: make mistakes to leave them out there to rectify. But
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: you can pull them off to say, okay, my coaching
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: strategy wasn't quite right when I was trying to tell
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: your stuff in the middle of play, it's come. I'll
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: tell you this, now, go back out and do it.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: And then I just left her on tex secured and
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: she did.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: The confidence thing is so key, isn't it. At that age.
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: You don't want them ever to think I can't do
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: it or it's too hard. Had a little shooter last night.
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: We had match player, just at the end of the
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: game and these keep in mind this is under tens.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: But she wasn't getting her shots in and she was
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: walking off and a mum said, I'll make it. Do
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: some practice this week, and I said to her, I
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: don't care if.
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: You miss like.
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: You have to practice so you come into the game
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: as prepared as you can be. But if you miss
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: your miss like there's no pressure. Don't let it get
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: to your head now before the game's even started. But
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: you've got a practice to put yourself in the best
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: possible position to play the game, and so you feel better,
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: you'll enjoy it more. Yeah exactly. But if missus happened,
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: it's fine, Like don't I just the thought of them
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: being under pressure at ten and not enjoying it really cool,
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: don't lie.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: I also think if you pull, if you if you
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: rotate them off after they've made a mistake, it tells
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: the other girls that they should turn on that player.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: And that's just one thing. It's like, I won't have
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: them criticizing one another, like that's that's not your job.
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: They out about making mistakes because they don't want to
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: be ready.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, thank you guys. I appreciate that.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: Good luck, And I'm sad for the other team. I
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: feel I feel for them. They've probably forgotten already, this
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: is think. So I had my crew here on Monday
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: night and when we would usually have netball training, and
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: it was of course bucketing down, so I had them
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: over for their their mcflurries. Yeah, it was the loudest
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: hour and a half of my life and I just
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: I just kind of let them go with it, and
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: so we've got wooden floors. It was it was very loud,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: but you know, they there was no hint of regret
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: or sadness or animosity. It was just a celebration. It was.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: It was really nice. I had I only had nine
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: out of the ten in which was shame. We had
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: one of the girls who couldn't make it. But it
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: was really nice to have them all together and to
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: see that, you know, if we don't make a big
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: deal about it, they will deal with it and move on.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: So and they've they've enjoyed one another, enjoyed the season.
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: That's the beauty of a team sport, though, isn't it
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: like the things they will remember? And listen, I say
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: this all the time. We don't remember games. We remember
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: moments and experiences we did when we were traveling and
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: the after parties and you know that sort of stuff.
• 38:07
  Speaker 4: That's all it's all about. So good on you. I
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: love that we're doing that on Friday as well. After
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: the game, everyone's going back to one of the team's houses,
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: which will be great fun. And they're more excited about
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: that than the game.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that'll be fun exactly. So I did find my
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Foolish Words book last week and I said I would
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: have a quote for an inspirational quote from Foolish Words,
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: the most stupid words ever spoken, and I don't another
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: chapter in this here is that when they go to Greece.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Oh god, that's so funny. This one's from Harry S.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: Treman Us President, Always be sincere, even if you don't
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: mean it. Thank you, Harry. Beautiful words.
• 38:48
  Speaker 4: One of the good ones I heard recently was the
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: last thing I ever want to do is upset you.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's not not on the list. It's just
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: the last thing.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: So exciting news in the notriable world, obviously. So we
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: have talked to everybody's good friend, Simone McKennis, who has
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: a great inspirational quote from the season, didn't she? So
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Round six Vixen's were two wins from six games, and
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: they asked her at the press conference, what are you
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: going to do? What's your coaching wisdom? And what did
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: she say?
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: She said, it feels a bit lifeless, doesn't it. Maybe
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: we just need to go to the pub.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: Maybe we just need to go to the pub, which
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: I think is wonderful wisdom. So what we have done
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: with Simone's consent, thank you very much, is we have
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: commissioned a Notrible T shirt that says maybe we just
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: need to go to the pub, no dribble, And we
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: will be selling these for a very limited period between
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: the first and the fifteenth of September via the noodrible
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: dot com dot au website, the Nodrible merchlink, very limited time,
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: and five dollars from the sale of every single one
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: of these items of me our pub crawl No, we'll
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: go to the Confident Girls Foundation. And we don't have
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: the pub t shirt in children's sizes because we are responsible, right,
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: So yeah, but there's.
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: A what are you wear?
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: This is small, It is small women's and this is
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: the boxy T shirt and I would say it runs
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: a little bit small, so size up a little bit.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: But we'll have a whole range of them. We'll also
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: have some training tank tops and so you might want
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: to get those for you a summer netball team to
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: train in or But yeah, thanks Simone for letting us
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: use your incredible words of wisdom and inspiration there.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: And so the money is going to the Excuse me,
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: I'm getting right to the end of my voice. What
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: a shame I have to speak for a living. But anyway,
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: the Confident Girls Foundation is the foundation that's owned by
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: Netball Australia and it basically allows funding to be put
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: towards girls to help them get on the court. So
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: it's funded communities have been hit by flooding, bushfires and
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: all that sort of stuff. So it's a really great
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: foundation that goes back into netball.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: So get on board with that one. So first to
• 41:09

• 41:45
  Speaker 1: And my question for the week, dribblets, please give us
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: answers on this on the Facebook group.
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: So.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: I work with a comedian by the name of Becky Umbas.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: She's a KeyWe She's very funny and she's got a funny,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: little squeaky voice. And she was talking about her spirit
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: animal the other day and she said her spirit animal
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: is the seagull. And yeah, if you hear her voice,
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: that makes perfect sense.
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: Oh okay.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: So I was thinking that we should consider what would
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: be the spirit animal for each of us.
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: So I know one of mine already, giraffe.
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: Oh no, that makes sense.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: What would one of yours be?
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: Last week it was a sloth?
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: Was it nice?
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: Very good. Do you have three toes?
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: I do, but there's another two.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: There's another two as well. Okay, so you relaxed on
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: the beach.
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: Very nice.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: So I thought it would be like interesting for us
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: to reflect on it. But I would actually love to
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: hear from the dribblers what they think our spirit animal
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: would be. And I predict that Lizes will be flattering,
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: that they'll suggest quite flattering spirit animals for her. But
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: you and I can get absolutely hammered on this. I'm
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: here for it all.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: Bring it.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go Dribblers.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: So I do feel though that the people who know
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: me well will not be flattering, like I'd be like
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: a spirit animal who's really annoying, just a pest.
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: So many people are going to say whal after hearing
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: you the last couple.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: Of well, that's what made me think about this, and
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: then listening to Becky's bit there. So yeah, so please
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: get around that. Let us know, and we will obviously
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: be reading out the nominations and this could be as
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: much of an election as our No Drible Hottest one hundred,
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: which there is Hottest Australian one hundred songs from No
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: Dribble If there is a Spotify playlist on that, if
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: you want to get around that one sounds great. Yeah.
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: Are we going to rap because I'm busting to other tools?
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah? We should rap. I just I can't believe I
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: haven't talked about this though. I'm concerned about the Swifts
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: and the super Shot, but anyway, I'm sure Briany has
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: everything under control. I'm less concerned about Page going on
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: maternity leave than I am about Sophie Fawn's leaving. Okay,
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: time to we all right, and no correspondence will be
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: entered into at this time. All right, drib let's have
