  Speaker 1: You're listening to a DM podcast.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: We'll try to keep it as nice as we can,
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: but you might hear the occasional swear word in No Dribble.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Don't tell them.
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: Hello, and welcome.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Back to No Dribble, the week where we have a
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: new superhero in the sport of netball.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Catherine's going to tell us all about what happened after.
• 0:30
  Speaker 4: Game on Saturday Saturday.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: This is Carolyn.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: I'm in Amsterdam today and it's two o'clock in the morning,
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: So forgive me if I sound a little bit weary,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: but again, I can't miss out on.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: A chat with my dribbles. Yes, so it's Carolyn.
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: I'm in Amsterdam, cath Cox, and I am in Sydney.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: How boring, Liz ellis that I'm still on the farm,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: haven't moved anywhere. I'm nowhere near Amsterdam, the Red Light
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: District or any of the delights of the cafes over there.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: I'll even show you that in my AIRB and B
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: there's a bunch of tulips, just to be if anyone
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: doubted that I was actually in Amsterdam, because you can't.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Buy tulips anywhere else.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: What have you been doing since you've been there, tell
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: us everything.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Ah, so we've had a go punishing the children. Walking
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: miles and miles and miles every day. Actually it's Europe,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: so it's kilometers and killer meters every day. But we
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: had been down driving around in France and we went
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: to Villas Brettner and saw the World War One Australian
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: War memorial there. This is a small town where there's
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: like everything is about remembering Australia and the efforts of
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: the Australian soldiers and helping to liberate that town. It's
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: so so moving. So we went there and then we
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: went down to Normandy and did an Omaha beach tour.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: So it's been all about all about war and pastry
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: this last week.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: So not a bad battle, A great combo.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: That is a great combo. But have you managed to
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: fit in wine.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: A little bit a pretty glass every now and then?
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Doing my bit to support the economy.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: How good is it though? When you do travel and
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: you are walking kilometers every day, Like at the end
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: of the day, I can eat whatever I want. And
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Liza and I fell in that trap a few times.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: I thought we'd have the whole cheese cut. Seemed like
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: a good idea at the time, until half an hour
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: later it came out the other end.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so we're heading for Paris tonight. But they so
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: it's two am here and maybe four four and a
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: half hours ago, I got a note from our accommodation
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: in Paris saying, oh, sorry, can't host you. We've got
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: a plumbing problem. It's oh, yeah, you call a plumbing problem.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I call you've got someone who's willing to pay more
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: money for the apartment. So it's like, okay, haven't told
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: the kids that one yet. We'll work that one out
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: sometime today and find somewhere to stay tonight.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: It'll be fine. But it's like, man, this four of us,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: that's hard.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: How are you finding like the Aussie dollar? Do you
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: just not think about how much you're spending?
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't think about it. I don't know.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Fortunately, not very good at doing the translation on the hops,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: so it's just sort of like whatever, don't even think
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: Here back to my original story though about the cheese cut.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: It was in Paris and it could actually be a
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: plumbing problem.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: That was such a great restaurant, Like, we went to
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: this restaurant and their specialty was vegetables, which doesn't sound great,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: but like we had this rosotto and some poor it
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: was risotto of like instead of rice, the actual rice
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: what looked like rice grains were like carved out of
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: like turner or something. It was beautiful. The food was beautiful,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: but it was really like it was a Michelin starred restaurant,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: and Catherine and I weren't paying the bills. Somebody a
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: benefactor was, and so we were having all these beautiful
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: like vegetable like it was meat, but they made vegetables,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: so it was really it was amazing.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Sorry it was meat like there was.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Meat in it. It wasn't a vegetarian restaurant, but the
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: vegetables were the star. And so we were just marveling
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: at the fact that some Paul apprentice had probably had
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: to carve like grains of rice out of turn for
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: whatever it was. Anyway, we got to the end and
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: they brought out this cheese cart, and in hindsight we
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: thought we realized that we're probably just supposed to choose
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: one bit of cheese age when we demolished the whole cart,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: and I just remember lying on our back in the
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: hotel we were staying in with the penzion, thinking I'm
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: going to have to go to a hospital and get
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: my stommach pumped because I ain't too much GeSe.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: I didn't even make it to the hotel. Remember, on
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: the walk home, I literally had to do an emergency
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: dash into anywhere and try and find a bathroom. It
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: was to armaged it. So I actually do buy the
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: plumbing story. I'm telling you somebody else has gone over
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: there and done exactly what we did. But I remember
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: that restaurant because it was so uptight. Remember is there
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: was no no no one was talking, there was no music,
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: and we were sitting there. I said, do I feel
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: really uncomfortable? She goes, Nah, just be yourself, don't worry
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: about it, don't worry about these people. So we got
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: very loud. I think that was off the back of
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: a few too many bottles of great French wine. But
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: it was good fun until the walk home.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was funny, wasn't it. Like there was Yeah,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: there was no music. Everyone was being very quiet, and
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I was like, if I was just there to worship
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the food, We're like, yeah, we're here to have a
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: good time.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Well that is the opposite of what a lot of
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: the Dribblers are talking about in the Facebook group at
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: the moment, that is their experience of going to a
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: sun Corps Super Netbook game where there's a lot of
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: talk about too much music, too loud. It's not a
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: cheese issue as far as I know, there's no cheese
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: issue in any of the games, but you know, let's
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: find that out during the week. But yeah, that there's
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: a lot of complaints about it's too loud. Can't hear
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: of the umpires calls, the players can't hear the umpires calls. Yeah,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: so what's it like for you to keep down there
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: on the sideline?
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: You know, Well, it's we'remen to have that all blocked
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: out and just hear what's going on. But Adelaide games,
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: I have the biggest headache after them because you can
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: hear all the noise and it's amplified, but it is
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: it's super loud. So and apparently the Mavericks is the worst.
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: Like they're trying to do a little bit like the
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: basketball have. They have the music playing all the way through,
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: and I don't know if it is necessarily loud so
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: much as netball crowds aren't used to it. There's probably
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: a fine balance in there somewhere. They can definitely turn
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: it down a notch. I reckon just so we can
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: enjoy the sounds of the court. You'd like to hear
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: the shoes squeaking and the umpires.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: What about who's our new superhero?
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: Oh my god? So the Swift's game, Oh tell you what.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: So it was really humid in Sydney on Saturday, the
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: Easter Show was on. The stadium was full, and I
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: think just combined with that, it was extra hot inside
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: the stadium, so the players were sweating and they were
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: slipping over a lot on the floor. I don't know
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: if it was all sweat or the floor was particularly
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: slippery this week, but this man had to come out
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: I'm talking ten twelve times with the mop after players
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: had fallen down to white the floor to get all
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: the sweat off. Anyway, he was the funniest guy. He
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: was so into it, one of the Swift volunteers. He
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: was just loving it, loving every moment, running out onto
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: the court and being a part of the actions so
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: much so the crowd was picking up on his energy.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: And then every time he ran out onto the court,
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: he'd get the biggest cheer by the end of the game,
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: he'd run out maybe twelve times and it was so bad.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: Shimona Jock I think at one time took the broom
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: off him and started to get stuck into it as well.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: The crowd were going bananas. Anyway, our facebook page, Dribbler's
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: Facebook page went nuts as well finding out who this
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: was and talking about him, and we found out his
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: name's Patrick, Hi. Patrick. He had spent the whole day
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: coaching junior umpires and then had gone and umpired two
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: games himself in a grade of the men's camp, one
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: of the women's comp and then had come and volunteered
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: for that game and netbub probably thinking he was going
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: to sit on the sideline and enjoy the netball, not
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: do too much exercise. But I actually said in commentary
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: at one point, I reckon, he's played more minutes and
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: been on the floor more than some of the players.
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: It's been on the floorboards, and there's.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: A bit of love for a bloke who will do
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: the housework.
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: Oh big time, do you reckon? That's what it was.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I'm actually riding him to my house. I wonder if
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: he's good at light the washing, do you know? I
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: wonder if he packs a dishwasher.
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: Like a German engineer.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like you know, and you know, I think we've
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: talked about this before, and every couple there's someone who
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: packs a dishwasher like a German engineer. And I think, Carolyn,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: you said, there's also someone and this is me, who
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: packs the dishwasher like you know, someone on crack. So
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: I tend to just throw everything in and hope for
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: the best. And then I come know this, this is weird.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: It's not clean. This is weird, it's not clean. So
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I wonder if he's like a German engineer packed the dishwasher.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: And then I wonder if he's someone who actually hangs
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: the clothes out properly. Again, I don't do this and
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: get in trouble for it. So if Patrick can show
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: us like the full range of his housekeeping abilities, that'd
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: be great.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: What do you mean you don't hang the clothes out properly?
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Well, you know what, That's what I say to my husband.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: What do you mean? I don't hang the clothes out properly?
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: But it turns out he as well as packing the
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: dishwasher like a German engineer, he hangs close out like
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: a German engineer. So when I hang close out on
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the line, I just get them up there anyway I
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: can and just put the pegs wherever. I don't really care.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Whereas he hangs his undies like side to side and
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: pegs each side of the undies, Whereas I'm just like, well,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: I just throw the undies on the line and just
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: use a peg wherever, and he's like, oh, it just
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: makes it uncomfortable, Like, dude, you're not that sensitive down there.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: But he hangs like a side to side. And so
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: when I get home and he's been hanging the washing out,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: I just laugh my head off because it's like a
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: line of all the undies, and he hangs it so
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: that there's like he'll hang all of the kids, like
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: all the one kid's stuff on one line, because we've
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: got like a a parallel sort of line, not a
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: hills first, and then he'll hang the next kids, and
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: he'll have mine, then he'll hang his, and then he
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: insists on like you, whereas I'm like, just steal it
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: all together and we'll just separate it at the end
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: when they're come in dry. He's like, no, no, you
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: do it all like that. And then you can separate
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: it as you go. And I'm like, oh, and that why,
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: that is why I hang in the washing out takes
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: so long.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: My mum always said, hang the tops by the bottoms
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: and the bottoms by the.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Tops, even though that's too hard for me.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and then you don't get it. He don't get
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: you know, peg marks in places that they shouldn't be,
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: like Matthew's crutch. No one wants the meat tray to
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: have funny feeling undies.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: The tops by the bottom. But that actually, actually that
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: would involve sorting out the top from the bottom. I
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: just think, get it up on the line, let the
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: sunshine do it. That's fine.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: At the end of the day, it all drives right, exactly.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And who cares about peg marks? Like maybe in the
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: sixties people cared about peg marks, but no one. Like
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: you don't walk down the street and someone goes check
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: out her peg mark, No one cares.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: I care about peg marks.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Do you notice some of other people?
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Well no, I don't notice some of other people, but
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: I certainly notice if I'm putting something on myself and
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: there's nothing I would rather invest more time hanging out
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: the washing than in ever having to touch the iron.
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: Oh yes, well played not smart, not the iron.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: So you know, once Evelyn and I when she was little,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: we were sitting lying on the bed one morning when
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: the Olympics were on, and we're like switching through the channels,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: and it just happened to be like there were four
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: channels and on every channel there was an Australian women's team,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: so there was like the women's rugby team they're the Pearls,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: and then the Opals, the basketball team, the Matilda's and
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: the hockey Roos. And we've been switching around for about
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: an hour, and after about an hour Evelyn said, Mummy,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: the boys play sport. So I was like, no, darling, no,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: they're too busy ironing. And after that twenty minutes she goes,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: what's ironing? I thought, my work here is done.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: You're doing it.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: I realized five years like when we moved, when we
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: moved into our house, I bought all new appliances and
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I hadn't taken the iron out of the box, which
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: is why she had no idea what ironing was.
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: So how do you buy materials that don't crease? Because
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: clearly we've just discussed your hanging on the line abilities.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: No, I don't. I just wear everything crease. I don't care.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: And my mum is a pool that I will send
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: my kids to school in uniforms and aren't ironed. I'm like,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: Care now, my mum erons pillow cases and teetowels.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I remember my mom used to used to iron hankys.
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: Even the idea of a hanky, though, Do you know
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: anyone that still uses a hanky? That is just vile,
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: isn't it. Do you know anyone that uses a hanky
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: that's not old?
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: No, I don't know. Well I wouldn't. It's not a
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: hanky in our house do you use that of you guys?
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: We wouldn't have a hanky chef in our house.
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: I don't think a hanky cheef hanky chee to Saturday,
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: he said, hanky chief a handkerchief.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we've got a hanky pinky chief sharehouse, but not a.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: Sinkchen otherwise known as the meat tro.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Anyway, Patrick, if you've got any tips for us, clearly
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: you're a man who knows what he's doing, and great work.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much for all you were and all
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: the volunteers. It's crazy how and we always talk about
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: how much of our sport is carried by the volunteers.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: But you know, we don't even talk about what we
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: don't usually talk about what's happening at this top level
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: of the game. But we have the Patricks of the
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: world out wielding the mops and now providing entertainment.
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: Do you know who else was it the game on
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: Saturday which I loved? I heard a Catherine from behind
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: me turned around standing there with a no dribble t
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: shirt on and a scrunchy that was safety pinned on
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: the top because her hair's too short to wear one.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: Bob Jarvis, oh get it?
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: But I was so good.
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: And then there's video footage that's ended up on our
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: socials pages of her with the rally towel given in
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: one of these ones. She was right into it.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: That's so good. Can I just have a little heads
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: up here, you a little vote of thanks. So Patrick
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: did a great job on the mopping, But five years
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: ago there was no sign of a mop and it
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: was a Dribbler's own Sue Guardian who lobbied hard for
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: the mop action to make sure that we had people
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: on the sideline ready to mop up. Because it used
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: to be just. I think it was a boll kids
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: who had a bit of cloth and Sue it used
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: to get up her giddy goat so much so you know,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: be the change you want to see. So she beat.
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: It funny because she at the end of that we
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: I think we almost we had a sponsor. Some people had.
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: There was Sabco that came on board for a minute
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: off the back of Sue's petitions.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: So it was a beautiful And I think it was
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: in the very first episode of No Dribble that I
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: proposed that the Swifts get the Swifts as get Swiffer
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: as a sponsor. I didn't see them following up on
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: this amazing advice that I give. But anyway, there was
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: a bit of netball on the weekend. It was how'd
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: you go with your tips?
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Cat?
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: I annoyingly got one wrong and I but you did
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: get well, I know. But then the rest of the
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: games they weren't the blowouts I was expecting. All the
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: games were a lot more ebbs and flows this week,
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: which is great, isn't it. Like I kind of thought
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: last week was the super hard tipping round and this
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: one was going to be so much easier. But it
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: definitely didn't shape up that way. Queensay, Firebirds too early
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: to say the real deal.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Do you think, though, Well, they're looking good. They are
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: looking good. That's a big win. That is turning into
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: a tough road trip for Fever, isn't it. Given that's
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: two years in a row they've lost that corresponding game.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: So and it wasn't closest time around thirteen goals. No.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: The good news for Fever though, is that Janielle Fowler
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: has put in a four weeks notice. Fell and m
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: Marte apologies and so I think probably two or or
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: one and a half weeks in they've got to buy
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: this weekend, which means that they won't lose more points
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: if they were to lose a game, not to say
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: they would, and then she potentially is back the following
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: week when they play The Vixen's neb All. Australia's statement
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: basically said that they were using general employment laws. I
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: want to say, it's the National Employment standards, thank you. There.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: It is so by that genial Fowler can go back,
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: Nemard can go back to her position, and she's just
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: got to give the four weeks notice, which she has
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: done so she will be back for the West Coast
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: Fever and will be back momentarily, which make a big
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: difference for them now that they're down two losses already
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: and what's a super close competition.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, And I think as the biggest women's sport
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: in the country, we've got to make sure that we
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: look after women when they go on maternity leave and
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: when they come back. So, you know, it's a difficult
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: situation because there are two players impacted here, so there's
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: been a lot of work going behind the scenes to
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: make sure they're okay. And it's exciting that, you know,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: fans get to see Janille come back.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it is exciting. Be pumped, won't they.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: So I just want to put on the record that
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I picked three this week. Yeah everyone knows. I know,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: I just picked the home teams, but I was so
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: happy to see three of the four home teams.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: So Catherine's gone more accurately.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: Whoever scheduled the games three.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Letes exactly go the Sun got super much.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: I also picked three.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: So did you did we all get the Firebirds wrong?
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: Is that where we filled down?
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: I got the Firebirds right, I got the Lightning wrong. Catherine,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: he was over the home team, right of course. Sorry, yeah,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: but I mean fifteen goals at the end. It wasn't
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: The score probably didn't tell the story of the game.
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: Hey, no, not at all. They Lightning were in it
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: for a lot of that game, and particularly against a
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: full strength Adelaide Thunderbirds. I don't know that anyone thought
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: it was going to be quite so close. So that
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: was a brilliant game, I'll tell you what, though, I'm
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: feeling for Carra Conan all week in the lead up.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: There's so much talk around you know, is she kind
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: of null and void in the sun Corps supernet ball
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: space now because she's not shooting long shots? Does that
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: means somebody else is going to come in and do it?
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: Which bachelor door seems to be getting a bit more
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: caught time there. And then all of nearly the halftime
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: show during their particular game yesterday was about kar Ra
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: Kanan as well. We spoke about it on Pivot last
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: night as well. And it's tough, but I get it,
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: like you've got to be shooting them, But my thing
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: is you don't have to be shooting them just in
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: power time. You should be shooting them at all stages.
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: Of the game. It's so hard to get the ball
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: in the circle in this competition to then be throwing
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: it out again and stuffing around with it, and you
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: see so many players lose possession in those moments. You've
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: got to be able to back yourself and go to
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: the post, regardless of if it's power time or not.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: That's fascinating, Catherine, because that's what that was your trademark,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: right Whenever we were playing and the ball got into
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: you in the circle, I would just expect you to
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: turn and shoot, and that was what you were fantastic at.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: But then as we got to having I guess, taller
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: holding shooters, the idea was to work the ball until
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: you get something under the post. But the super shot
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: has done a couple of things. It's obviously changed up
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: how defensive players approachings, but you do need a long
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: range shooter now. So it's almost like the game. We've
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: got to spend a couple of years now getting players
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: back to the style of game that you played, which
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: is high risk.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: But high reward.
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's funny because Caitlin Bassett came out in defense
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: of car Ra Conan saying that she doesn't have to
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: shoot them. She's taller, she's going to get the rebounds,
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: and which I agree with to your point a bit
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: like about having the tall shooter. But Carra Conan's not
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: six foot four or five like your chol Ox and
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: you fell in their MARDs and your Aike and George's.
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: All the shooters around her height, which is probably your
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: Garbon Heart and cardwell shoot super shots. They all back
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: themselves and shoot. So I think when you've got a
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: smaller circle and car Hurricane and even though she's six
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: foot two is probably considered smaller, you've got to be
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: able to back yourself and go to the post, I think.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: But it's interesting because we don't have supershots in international
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: netballk so no diamonds selection, you know, like someone like
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: Kara is so useful that it's like, well, if you
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: can win games without using the supershots, you are potentially
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: more valuable at an international level. But then if she's
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: not going to get the court time at super same
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Corps SUPERNETBWLE stage, that makes it we're sort of cannibalizing
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: some of our talent there well.
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: And it's nuts too because the Adelaide Thunderbirds won the
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: Premiership too, is in a row hardly shooting a supershot,
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: so you don't need to shoot them. But I think
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: what we see in Kara is that she just refuses
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: to Like if she lands in that space, she won't
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: even attempt to look at the post or and that
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: I think that's where the issue lies.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Catherine. How hard is how hard would it be so
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: for someone like Cara Knain, who has had a brilliant
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: career to this point, running that baseline shooting close shots,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: She's been at standing for Australia and outstanding for the Lightning,
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: How hard would it be for her at this point
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: of her career to become someone who's prepared to put
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: up the long shots? Like? Is that a matter of
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: the shooting coach working just with her to perfect that
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: the physical part of it? Or is there a mental
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: part of it? Like how if you were coaching her,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: how would you approach it?
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: Oh, look, I think it's I think it's mental with
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: her because apparently it's training she's doing it. Obviously, Belinda
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: Reynolds wants everybody shooting super shots and apparently Kara is
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: draining them left, right and center at the game. But
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: then you step out onto the court. She knows everyone
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: is watching her and waiting for her to shoot super shots,
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: And I don't know if that's part of the problem
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: or I think she's absolutely capable of it, and I
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: think the shooting technique doesn't change a huge amount going
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: from under the post. I mean, the supershot line is
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: actually not that far back. So then you all we
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: spoke about last week. New Zealand's bringing it into their
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: comp It's further back than ours. They've decided to make
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: the disc It's a bit further, which I think ourse
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: probably should be. It's probably a bit easy at the moment.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right, So, I mean when you think back to
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: your career, you went through a stage of having the yips.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Is that different to what to what Kara might be experiencing.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: No, because my yips were under the post, So no,
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: so much. Kara has got absolutely no issues under the postmine.
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: We're always I can't miss this because it is so easy.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: Everyone I think I'm an absolute lose. You cannot miss
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: this one, and those are the ones I would miss
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: because I'd talk myself into it once. Fromout further, there's
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: actually no pressure on you because they're harder right, so
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: just have a crack. But heaps of players miss mass
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: amounts of super shots in the game across the course
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: of a tournament. It's just the way it is. You
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: just got to have a crack, though, is the thing.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: I think.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember what games I watched on the
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: weekend because I'm go blocks. I wasn't able to watch
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: a whole lot of them, but I did see must
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: have been the Five Birds game, and there was not
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: a super shot until very deep back end of the set.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: No one even tried for a super shot and they
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: had I can re in what game it was, but anyway,
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: there was there were perfect shooting stats at that stage,
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: and it's sort of like, are you guys trying to
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: preserve your shooting stats?
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: Now? Maybe it was the Lightning.
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: Game the Swifts and the MAVs game were similar.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: To I didn't see any of that, sadly, So.
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, in the Swifts game, Lizellis, though, there was a milestone.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: I don't know if you heard about this one happening
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: during the week or anyone mentioned it to you, but
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: Paige Hadley played her one hundred and seventy second game
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: for the Swifts, so not in the national league, but
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: in the Swiss But she's been with the Swifts the
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: whole time anyway, to equal the mighty Lizzelles. Oh god,
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: did she so second of all time for games played
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: for the Swifts. Now you were Page Hadley. Oh, it's
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: me and she's coming for me. Mine's one ninety two.
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: Apparently I knew none of this before the weekend, and
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: our statian gave us all the details. Statistician whatever you
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: call them.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: Love your statition. Oh that's exciting. Congratulations Paigey. Yeah, it's cool.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Like I think if your record is going to be broken,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: when it's broken by someone who is such a great
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: player and a great human, like, it's nice.
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: So the fact that she's coming for you, I don't
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: like it, No, you don't like it, but I'm excited that,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: you know, such a great servant of the Swifts, you know,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: and she's a one club player, which is great.
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I do love that too.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: So that would be for her sometime back end of
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: next year, one hundred and ninety. She's at one hundred
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: and seventy two now.
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so she's got to get twenty more games, So
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: she's got to play another season.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, to get it.
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: I might just get her in the car park before
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: that happens.
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: What you doing, Tan? You're herding on her.
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: On the eve of the one ninety two of Paige
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: A Hadley goes missing. Guys nothing with me.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Pi Toatally goes missing. Bridiy Agle will be after you,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: and she knows where you live.
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: Speaking of New South Wales, netble as though, we had
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: some confirmation about the Sliger's.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Confirmation excellent, important, excellent.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: Do you know who's who lives? Did you see?
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: I think Natalie is my favorite?
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: Natalie, Elizabeth and Amy Catherine?
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: All right, so when you planned to drop those names
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: in the commentary.
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: I already did it, did you now? I was telling
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: everyone about it. Yes that No, I haven't done that yet.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: That would be pretty shameless.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, we're watching.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: If anyone doesn't know what we're talking about. We discovered
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: last week, thanks to Julie Slager, that her fabulous daughters
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: Natalie and Amy chose Elizabeth and Katherine as their confirmation names.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: So it was Natalie, Elizabeth and Amy Catherine. Those are
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: the saints that they were taking. And you know, not
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: everybody who has those names, clearly lives their life like
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: a saint, is all I'm saying.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think I was named after Saint Elizabeth.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: Do you know?
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: It's Elizabeth Margaret? So I was named after the two
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: real princesses at the time.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: Oh nice, the.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Queen and her sister.
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: It makes so princess sense. You're always acting like a princess,
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: so listen. I'll just do a quick update on the
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: tipping comp. On the Valor Dribbler's tipping comp the three
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: of us got three this week. That is by far
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: the most common score. We had three hundred and thirty
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: one tippers on three. One hundred and thirty people got
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: it absolutely correct this week, got been going to the bonus.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Twenty two people got one point, so sadly we have
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: no one left was sitting on zero anymore. I was
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: a little bit sad when I tipped the swifts correctly
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: that my perfect record was broken for the year early.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: But yes, and we have our weekly winner of the
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: Valor voucher, and that is her tipping alien is Kirsten.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: So she was the most accurate this week. So well done, Kirsten.
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: Now is I prefer Quidditch? Still? On the top.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: I don't know who's on the top of the ladder.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: You keep talking, I'll go and do some big on
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: here and I'll tell you who's on the who's on
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: the top of the ladder?
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: Okay, I have the update.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: I prefer Quidditch is sitting in third position now, so
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: Kirky is top.
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: Of the leaderboard.
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: Kirky, Kirky. Okay. So I was just saying, I prefer
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: quidditch is Haley, and she messaged me to say that
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: she's just getting amongst it because it is the first
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: and final time she will be at the top of
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: the table. She's not far off still, though. Don't lose hope, haileey.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, positive self talk, Hailey. I mean, I'm saying this
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: to my kids in my netball team. You will perform
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: how you tell yourself to perform, Hailey, So you know,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: stay positive.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: So my little team is we're emulating the fever at
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: the moment where two games down started the season. It's
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: a long season, plenty of time, so yeah. But apparently
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: they had a tough one.
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: On the weekend score lines.
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: That was twenty seven twenty.
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: Oh that's good scoring though, yeah, yeah.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: So they came back hard in the fourth quarter. I
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: think they fell apart in the third quarter by the
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: looks of things. But you know, I'm getting my stats
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: still sent to me.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: I love it. She just can't go on holidays. And
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: go on holidays, I e up at two thirty in
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: the morning.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: Interesting that you guys are playing first week of the
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: school holidays.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: So would you pronounce that interesting or pain in the ass,
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: because that's how I pronounced that. It's like, oh God,
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: And it's like, you know, I feel bad because I'm away.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: You know, you volunteer to do something, and we've all
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: got lives and everyone's happy to lean in. But it's like,
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: can we just have the school holidays as school holidays?
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Like that's you know, if we all aim to be
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: there for the whole term.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: So yeah, that's I'm frustrated with that.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: But anyway, are you going to go and do some
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: netball training around the Mulin Rouge.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: With my long stretch?
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: Yes? Are you going? No? Oh, okay, you don't want
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: your kids to see boobs and bump.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: Well, it's just I'm not that.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: Of all the things to do with my time in Paris,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: probably the Mulin Rouge is not one that necessarily floats
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: my boat fair enough.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: So what's on the agenda in Paris?
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Well, clearly finding a bed that will be number one
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: on the agenda. So last week, well we did do
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: I think I mentioned this last week how Dotty read
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: these story books when she was a kid. Ruby Red
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: Shoes goes to London. And we had a great day.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: And it was the three of us because I've brought
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: my stepdaughter Claire over to complete the picture, because step
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: daughter number one is living in London, that's Hailey. So
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: it was like, well, five out of six of us
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: are going to be there. Let's make it six out
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: of six. So she came over. Is a surprise for
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: her sister and her father organized by the evil stepmother,
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: thank you very much. And so Claire came with us
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: for the day and we did our Ruby Red Shoes day.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: So Ruby Redshoes also went to Paris. So we will
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: have a Ruby Redshoes Goes to Paris day, which will
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: it involves eating a lot of cheese and going to
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: see Rodin's the Thinker. But yesterday I saw Rembrandts and
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: van Gochs and the Meres so seeing all the artie guys.
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: Oh, so you're going to go and see the mona Lisa. No,
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: oh done, mate, I'm striking at at a rate of
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: knots here.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: Actually, one thing I did do, most amazing thing went
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: up inside the tower that holds Big Ben. So Big
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: Ben is the bell and we were up behind the
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: clock tower, behind the face of the clock, and above
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: that in the belfry last week.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: So yeah, so very good.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: I say, I wouldn't have picked that one.
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: No, no, it's a very surprising thing to have been
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: able to do. Just managed to jag some tickets.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: That's very cool. Did you drive and round and around
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: the roundabout and say, look, kis big Ben?
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: Look Kisigo?
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Anyone younger than forty five won't know what we're talking about,
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: but you have to go and watch. It was a
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: national Lampoon's europe vacation.
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Jimmy Chase.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Ye, well we did a.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: Lot of that, and we also did a lot of
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: what does the Queen do? Well, well, we can't do
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: she queens? Well she could, well, obviously we have a
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: new queen now, so yeah, but she queens from the
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: same movie She Queens, She queens?
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: What does the kin do? Genus?
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: But our queen that's you, Liz Fi. That's another great
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: seguay for me. You've got news out of net Australia
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: about the Constellation Cup.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: I do the dates hot off the press. The dates
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: have been released, very exciting. Obviously, there's four games in
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: the Constellation Cup. Everyone knows that that is not the
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: news flash. The news flash is the dates and the venues.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: So the first two games against the Silver Ferns Friday,
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: the seventeenth of October John Caine Arena in Melbourne. Victorians
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: are getting spoiled.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: Aren't they.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: That's because the government pays for it. Do you want
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: to get sports back to your government? Diamonds vat Silver
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: Ferns Wednesday, the twenty second of October at Cutos Bank
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: Arena in Sydney. They will be absolute blockbusters, hopefully in
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: front of massive crowns. And then we go across the
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Dutch Sunday the twenty sixth of October in Hamilton at
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: Globox Arena and then the twenty ninth of October at
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Wolfbrook Arena in christ Church.
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: Keep your doing three games when we played Constellation Cup.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: We didn't play Constellation Cup though, oh my, didn't you
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: might have?
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: I think I did, but I don't remember it ever
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: being four, and I feel like we need a time.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: Breaker and be somewhere, don't we Anyway, that's obviously not
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: happening this year.
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: So okay, so we'll just embrace the four and be
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: excited about it.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, embrace it four? Now, correct me if I'm wrong
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: with The diamonds have to win three? Don't they to
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: win it back? Do you have to win it or
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: is it not aggregate? I think it's on aggregate? No?
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: Oh, I reckon, this has changed too. See now you're
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: really testing me. I reckon you whoever held it last
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: retains it if you win two?
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: I might need to check that. How about I report
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: back next week on how the diamonds have to what
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: they have to do to get the constellation cut back.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: But we want them to do that. That would be good.
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: Please let's have it back.
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: I mean that is the aim well, and to be fair,
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: if there's a time to do it, it's probably without
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: grace wiki for New Zealand. So get on board, guys,
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: come on, bring it back for us. We can do it.
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: We can do it. Hey, can I do a little
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: shout out please? I heard some sad news during the
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: week about a little girl named Rio Muir and her
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: family who had lost their home and a fire. Horrible story,
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: and Mammy Vaughan was apparently most upset about losing all
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: the little mementos that you keep many kids are growing up,
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: you know, all those special little things, and there was
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: lots of netball memorabilia and all that sort of stuff.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: So Rio is a big fan of the Swifts and
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: was playing for Hills Saints and the Nets that go anyway,
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: the Swifts, God love them. I got in touch with
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: them and they reached out and I think they gave
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: them tickets for the weekend and Rio was able to
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: present some flowers to some of the debutantes on the
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: court and stuff as well, and a Swift's pack and
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: all that sort of thing. So whilst we know that's
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: not a big deal in terms of what they're going through,
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: we hope for a second there was a smile on
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: the face because that I can't even imagine.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what are the Swifts?
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: And well done you cat, you swung into action behind that.
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: I'm impressed.
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, it takes someone to reach out, doesn't it.
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: And it was a family friend that did so that
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: was I'm glad we could do something.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and we are thinking of them. That would be
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: that would be so sad. I mean the kids probably,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: like I guess when you lose mementos, if your mum
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: lost you know, your mentos. When you're a kid, you
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: sort of don't get it, but then when you're older
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: and you become a mum. Like I've got boxes in
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: the office here of just labor with the kids, and
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: it's the sort of stuff that I've want them to
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: be able to pull out and look at when they're older.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: And actually they started doing it now and they just love.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: They love coming in and ruining my office completely. I mean,
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: everyone knows how much our hate house work. But they
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: come in and they pull the boxes out and they
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: read through all the stuff and they look at all
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: the little photos and the cards from when they were little,
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: and they love it. So that would be heartbreaking.
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: Did you guys do that when I did? Your mum
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: and dad keep stuff and you go through it all
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: the time.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: Mom did. She was a massive hoarder and she's still
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: got stuff and I go, oh, my god, have you
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: still got that? She's got like clippings from my entire
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: netball career, and she's put them into albums, so sort
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: of they're all out here. But she's got like stuff
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: from my sister and I like from school and we
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: still like going through and yeah, so I can't imagine
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: how heartbreaking that would be if it was just deraysed
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: like that, it would be just.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: So sad and I hurt. Cat.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: I think that you shared this information that the kids
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: Rio and her siblings, they just had the clothes on
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: their back, which happened to be their school uniforms. Are
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: you kidding, like really, that they would be so disappointed
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: that of all.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: Their favorite clothes. Oh good, I've still got my bloody
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: school uniform though.
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well get out of wearing a unicorn.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: Ah. I know, the poor things, but no, we are
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: thinking of them, and thank you to the Swifts two
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: for stepping in to help put a smile on faces
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: for even a minute.
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: On another note, now we're not sure exactly when these
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: will will drop, but this will probably be clear by Wednesday. Liz,
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: We've been having some conversations with interesting people.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: We have we have so coming up to a federal election,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: we thought, given the amount of women who have a
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: bit of power at this election. We're really fortunate, not fortunate,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: but I think it's fabulous that the current Minister for
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: Sport Anika Wells, and the shadow Minister for Sport and Russia,
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: and they're both women. So we thought with them and
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: then a lot of if we end up with a
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: hung parliament, the balance of power will largely be held
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: by female parliamentary So we just thought we'd reach out
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: to them and have a bit of a chat about
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: their netball experience, who their favorite players are, and find
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: out a little bit about them. So for any Dribblers
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: who might want to find out a little bit about
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: some of our female parliamentarians and the lead up to
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: the election and figure out might help you how to
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: figure out what you can do with your vote because
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: every vote counts. Will drop a series of conversations with
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: some of these parliamentarians over the next few weeks and
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: the lead up to the election.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're separate episodes, so they won't be waving through
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: our normally. We will still have our normal episodes. But yeah,
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: we're doing a sort of No Dribble extra series and
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: acting very grown up and talking to politicians and pretending
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: that we're proper journalists and having some sensible questions. And
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: I have also been bestowed with the enormous privilege of
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: running Coxy's Hot Box on her behalf because she was
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: not able to be present for these conversations. So I've
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: done my best to do you proud.
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: Did we try and smarten up the name a little
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: because it was, you know, serious conversation or did we
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: keep it as Coxies hot Box?
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: Coxy's Hot Box? My god? Did I would chisel that
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: in stone? It's going to be that forever.
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: That's going to be on my tombstone, you reckon?
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, why why change perfection?
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: We've got it.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: We've got a great name for it, for our little
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: rapid fire questions. So yeah, So they'll be dropping sometime soon,
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: same place. You'll see them, dribless, they'll come up here.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: But yeah, they've been really interesting conversation, interesting to talk to.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Interesting to talk to people who are sitting at the
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: center of power in this country and ask them what
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: they're planning to do with our sport, and interesting to
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: see how what they intend to do with our sport
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: when they have this power.
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: And we would like it to be more, please.
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: More, more and more please, Not that we're Hey, this weekend,
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: everyone split round happening. So Round Mavreez played across this
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: weekend and next weekend, two games each weekend, and may
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: I focus on a little situation happening on Sunday called
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: the Swifts and the Thunderbirds. Oh yes, I know, I'm
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: a little excited. I wasn't meant to be working this weekend.
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: I got myself on that game.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Well play.
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: So I'm going to Adelaide on Sunday to do that.
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: I can't wait. It's going to be good. But it
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: means that just a couple of games, So you have
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: to find something else to do on your weekends.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: Everyone, Well, I've booked a bit of a family tennis
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: match on Sunday morning and a bit of an Easter
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: egg hunt bit of a family tennis match, which is exciting.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: But I actually made sure the booking would be over
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: in time for me to get home, have a shower,
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: pour a wine, and watch the Thunderbirds and Swifts well played.
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: I forgot it was Easter. That's how excited I'm about
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: this game.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Well, this is true, and I actually well I'm not
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: going to tell my family this, but I actually want
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: to be home by two o'clock so I can watch
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: the MAVs and the Giants as well, because I reckon
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: that'll be a cracker, that.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: Will beckon, that'll be a good game.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's Sunday sorted. I don't know what I'm
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: going to do on Saturday because this weekend I actually
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: don't have to go anywhere for sport. The weekend just gone.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: We drove to Amadah, which is five hours away from
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: our place if you're telling a caravan, which we were,
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: and watched our daughter play rugby all day on the Saturday,
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: and then on you know, like hey, you start doing logistics.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: So on Sunday my son had to be back for
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: cricket presentation at one and we were looking at the drawl, going, oh,
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: they'll probably come last in their pool. So they've been
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: playing off against the last and the other pool for
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: six So that game's at eight thirty. I reckon, we
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: could probably do it. Leave armad L by nine and
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: look could be tight, but we might get back in
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: time for the cricket presentation, and thank goodness, we decided
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: to take two cars. So we were pushing it because
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Evelyn's team did not only lose all their games they
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: went through undefeated in their pool. They played in the
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: grand final. Instead of being at eight thirty on Sunday,
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: it was eleventh. So my husband thought he was going
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: to get half a day's work done on Sunday at
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: the farm and did it quiet work out. So that
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: was a long way to drive to watch some pretty
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: good sport being played.
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: How is she? More importantly, is she busted?
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Oh she's so broken, you know, like it's a pretty
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: brutal sport. She's got this she got stepped on her neck,
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: got stepped on and it's got this big mark down it,
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: and she was winging and she was really upset about it.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: And I was like, well it wouldn't have any netball, sweetheart,
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: so you make these choices. Yeah, yeah, I have zero sympathy.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Get back to the netball court where you won't get
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: stepped on on your neck with a spiky shoe. So Eddie,
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: who we're all home today and she is really struggling
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: to drag herself out of bed because she's busted and
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: giving him no sympathy.
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: The kids bounce back faster though, like how long would
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: it take her to get over that? Because I'd been
• 41:39
  Speaker 4: in bed for months you would be.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: And I suspect she's probably drawing it out and hoping
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: that I'll keep doing stuff for her.
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: Well played everyone, smart kid, that one.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: So actually, I'm looking forward to not having to drive
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: anywhere this weekend for sport. Mind you, that's where you
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: get the best conversations, isn't it with your kids? Like
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: you know, So I had ten hours in the car
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: on the weekend with my nine year old, with my
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: son with Austin, and we had some great chats. What
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: just because you're stuck in a car next to each.
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: Other, did you learn something you didn't know? Did you
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: tell you about a girlfriend you didn't know about anything?
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Nah, he's not into girls. But it was good. I
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: got sort of I got a good update on his
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: friendship group and the stuff that like in the day
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: to day rush of things, you don't you just don't
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: have time to get them to that point to have
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: a conversation. So yeah, anyway, so and even though we
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: were going to his sport, I still liked the idea
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: that that's what that's one of the gifts that take
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: your kids all around the country to sport gives you
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: is you got lots of time in the car, and
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: on the way there, I had no battery in my phone.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I've forgotten to pump it up, so and I was
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: in Matthew's car, so I didn't have the charger. So
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: it's great. We actually had to spend the time talking
• 42:46
