00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: Hello, Hello, babe, Hi, how I bound represent? Hi Babe?

16
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 3: You know what this is so sad, but it makes

17
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 3: me so happy that you're from Campbelltown. And then is

18
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 3: this really weird? If I tell you I was thinking

19
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 3: about you in the shower this morning, and I know

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 3: because I was thinking about the fact that we were

21
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 3: both from Campbelltown and you grew up in Rose Meadow

22
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 3: and we spoke to your mum last week. And then

23
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 3: I was having this whole conversation on my head with myself,

24
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 3: thinking well, she's like, really the ultimate Campbelltown girl. Because

25
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,119
Speaker 3: if I ever had the chance to talk to her.

26
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,839
Speaker 3: I wasn't born in Campbelltown. I was born at Goldwen

27
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 3: based Hospital. But Alana, were you born in Campbelltown Hospital?

28
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 4: I was born in Cambllton Hospital.

29
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Alana, can I just tell you the

30
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 1: weekend we've had is being in car rides through Darwin

31
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: and the Northern Territory with Kate going back and forth

32
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: wondering what Alana's up to, and then when you caught

33
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 1: her babe in the message, there was an absolute tears

34
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 1: of joy, fucking meltdown. She called me.

35
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 3: Beautiful, thank you so much. We're so I don't know how,

36
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 3: I'm really embarrassed, but we're so proud of you and.

37
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: Alana, I'm stepping in here.

38
00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: What I want?

39
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 2: What I want to know because we spoke to your

40
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 2: beautiful mum last week. Kate also was so excited when

41
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 2: you started following her on Instagram.

42
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,519
Speaker 3: Right, I sent it to the group.

43
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 2: Okay, and then we spoke to Natalie van Igmand as well,

44
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, Emily, sorry, Emily, Emily

45
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 2: starts following her as well. Kate then wanted Caitlin Ford

46
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 2: to follow as well. What I need to know in

47
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 2: the Matilda's team. Who's talking about Kate Richie at the moment.

48
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 2: Is there a chance that she could get more follows

49
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 2: on Instagram? Alana?

50
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, her name's flitting our group chat too. No, I'm sorry,

51
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. I don't want to lie. I haven't said anything,

52
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 4: but I think everyone knows who you are, of course,

53
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 4: but it's.

54
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 3: Not that I don't really, I don't care if people

55
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 3: know A care if you do, I care.

56
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, I was so stoked to hear I actually

57
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 4: didn't know you were from Campbelltown and so when I

58
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 4: found out.

59
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 3: Of course I was.

60
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 4: And also, by the way, I don't slide into anyone's dams.

61
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 3: That's what Emily said. I know, that's what Emily said.

62
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 3: That was the one part of the conversation I remembered

63
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 3: from Emily yesterday where she said, and Alana hardly follows anyone,

64
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 3: and the fact that she's following you is a really

65
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 3: big deal.

66
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: Alana, you know what I'd love to know, I mean,

67
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: outside of Australia's very own Kate Richie, what other names

68
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: or celebrities have you noticed pop up in your inbox?

69
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 3: Oh? I haven't, I don't know. I'm the only kiddy know.

70
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: How embarrassed you know?

71
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 4: No, I I haven't. I haven't really seen.

72
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, social media must have gone mad.

73
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 2: Can I ask who was the one that introduced the

74
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: team to Strawberry Kisses with Niki Webster?

75
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 4: That was Steph. Steph Cartley had listened to it. It

76
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 4: was one of her favorites growing up. I think over

77
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 4: the last couple of months it had resurfaced for her, and.

78
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 3: Then she brought it.

79
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 4: She was she played a lot in her team in

80
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 4: Arsenal and then added it to amaz Hilda's playlist. And

81
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 4: obviously all of us know that song, and I think

82
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 4: when you hear a good banger from a while back,

83
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 4: and it was, it's a good it's a good one.

84
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: For us to sing along too.

85
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 4: So everyone kind of got on board with that one.

86
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 4: It sort of became the anthem of the World Cup.

87
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: Alana, I don't want to make things even more awkward

88
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: between yourself and Campbelltown Kate. But Kate wanted me to ask,

89
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: what are you saying catching up with coffee? Like to

90
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,679
Speaker 1: have coffee just to really cemit the friendship? Is that possible?

91
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 3: Alana is a very busy person.

92
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 2: Let her answer the question, please, go.

93
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 4: I would love to.

94
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: I would love to.

95
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 3: And you in the next studio or something. Are you

96
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 3: were about to bring her?

97
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 4: No, I'm not. I mean I'm in bed, wonderful.

98
00:04:59,640 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 3: Out.

99
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 4: I've just woken up, so I'm not.

100
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 2: Do you have to go to Manchester City? Do you

101
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,159
Speaker 2: have to go back and start playing again straightaway? Alana?

102
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, we've got about a week or so. I've got

103
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 4: a week in Australia and then next Monday have to

104
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 4: be back at my club. So it's a pretty quick

105
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 4: turnaround for a lot of us. Yeah, a week is

106
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 4: all we care.

107
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: Plenty of time for coffee.

108
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 3: Though when are we going to see you back here?

109
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 3: When are we going to see I guess the Matilda's

110
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 3: back together because you like, on a very serious note, No, okay,

111
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 3: you didn't take away the medal, but everything that you created,

112
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 3: the vibe here in Australia has been so incredible and

113
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 3: we want to continue. So when can we get a

114
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 3: little bit more of that?

115
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 4: Yeah? So we've got our Olympic qualifiers in October, so

116
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 4: that's like a home and away for the teams that

117
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 4: we play. I think our next game will be in

118
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 4: Perth in Australia and then and then yeah, we're usually

119
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 4: home every few months, which is which is always nice

120
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 4: for a lot of us who live overseas as well

121
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 4: to be able to come home and play in front

122
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 4: of the Aussie fans, but to see our families as well.

123
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: That we can confirm, Alana, we do have a huge announcement.

124
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 2: Because Kate was screaming yesterday as we were as we

125
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 2: were flying home from Darwin yesterday dreaming you can you

126

127
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 2: and who that was from.

128
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,760

Speaker 3: Foul Mary McKenzie would be great. That would get me

134
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 3: some because that would get me some points around the house.

135
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,280
