That was a six fifteen venue machine 0:10:31.120 --> 0:10:33.040 by the way. Sure, I just hanging out all. 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:34.199 Right this minute. 0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:35.840 These are the top stories that you need to have 0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:37.520 this morning. Abby in the newsroom, go for it. 0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:38.360 Good morning. 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:42.800 Yes, as we've discussed, Billie Eilish is not coming to Adelaide. 0:10:44.360 --> 0:10:48.439 So her hit Me Hard and Soft the tour Kinky 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:53.119 is coming to Australia. She'll do four shows each Brisbane, 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:56.160 Sydney and Melbourne, but she will not come to Adelaide. 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:59.360 Tickets are on sale from Thursday, the second of May. 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.240 If you've got an American Express card you'll be from 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:03.040 the first of May. 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:06.640 So this is a question without notice to both of 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:08.640 you ladies. But is Billy irish? 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.640 Are we expecting the same sort of fanfare as Taylor Swift? 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:11.800 Like? 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:12.920 How big is she? 0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:13.200 So? 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:17.400 I can't see her selling out ninety five thousand crowds 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:20.679 every night? In saying that though with the younger crowd. 0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:23.760 We'll talk about this before produces Zoe. She's a little 0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:27.040 bit younger than us. She loves Billy Eilish. We don't. 0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:29.120 We're not huge on the hype. 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:33.280 Yeah, so whereas Taylor Swift sort of transcends all generations, 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:36.280 doesn't she She had dads taking their teenage daughters and 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:37.040 all that sort of stuff. 0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:39.360 Billy Eilish, I think she. I think that's what we 0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:41.440 sort of start to love and sees that she you know, 0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:43.880 she's got green hair. She's not the status quo of 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.400 a chip star, a typical pop star. So I think 0:11:46.400 --> 0:11:49.760 that's why the younger generation like her so much, because 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:52.640 she's a little bit different. But yeah, Billy Eilish won't 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:58.160 be here, But do I have a surprise for you. 0:11:58.679 --> 0:11:59.160 Stop her. 0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:04.320 Tina the Tina Turner Musical rolls into Adelaide. It's opening 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:09.360 night tonight. I highly recommend going and seeing it. I've had. Yeah, 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:13.040 it's amazing. I love Tina Turner. She's just absolutely incredible. 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:16.160 But yeah, there's still a few tickets available. It's opening 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:20.000 night tonight, as I said, so yeah, head along, beautiful 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:20.800 good stuff. 0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:22.640 All right, Jay, what have you got for a. 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:24.440 Well. 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:28.000 After sixteen years and two hundred and fifty five games 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:30.640 for the Crows, thirty four year old Rory Sloan is 0:12:30.679 --> 0:12:31.880 hanging up his. 0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:33.600 Boots we go. 0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:37.400 How was that news met with you yesterday? 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:40.880 It wasn't totally unexpected because obviously he's had two. 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:44.760 Detached retinas now out training with goggles and all sorts 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:46.040 of hers man. 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:48.440 So and the way that explained it, and it was 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:49.079 pretty obvious. 0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:52.040 I think his beautiful wife Belinda said a few weeks 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:53.920 ago when they were part of a TV show that 0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.400 he needs to start thinking about his future, needs to 0:12:56.440 --> 0:12:58.520 be able to see the kids, et cetera. So when 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:00.640 you really really break it down, does seem like a 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:03.760 bit of a an obvious situation that he's come up with. 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:05.040 But what a hell of a career. 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:09.280 There's not a single Crow supporter on this planet that 0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:12.480 doesn't absolutely love and adore Rory Slane. And there's not 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:15.199 a football fan on this planet AFL Football plan it 0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:16.079 doesn't respect Slane. 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:19.960 Yeah, really lovely scenes down at the club yesterday when 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.120 he announced his retirement. Got a little bit emotional, as 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:25.680 most professional sports people do when they quit, will not quit, 0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:29.240 but have to retire and his little boy Sonny was 0:13:29.280 --> 0:13:32.440 asked by his mother Belinda, how he felt about his dad. 0:13:32.720 --> 0:13:33.760 Super cute and have a listen. 0:13:34.400 --> 0:13:39.200 He always concentrates and how we never ever says I 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:40.400 can't do it. 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:43.920 I'm clear of you, Daddy. 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:44.959 That's nice. 0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:47.000 And then as he walked out, he goes, I'm hungry, 0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:49.520 and so he goes, I'm hungry too, mate. 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:57.360 Little studdies like these media commitments are exhausting, dad, but 0:13:57.440 --> 0:13:58.760 I do love how football is. 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:01.560 Obviously it's usually then like they're in their thirties or 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:04.320 forties where they retire, so they've got always got something 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:06.200 like they've young enough to go on and do something 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:08.280 else or get into commentating or whatever. 0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:09.880 So you know, life isn't over. 0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:12.920 I don't think Rory will be short of opportunities in 0:14:13.000 --> 0:14:14.280 a media sense in this town. 0:14:14.360 --> 0:14:17.360 Yeah, discussing that offair, I'm very very interesting to see 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:18.520 what not just Rory, but. 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:19.360 The Sloan's soon next. 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:23.240 Yeah, because they built this beautiful little platform and I'll 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:25.560 tell you what if they were hosting a lifestyle show 0:14:25.680 --> 0:14:26.360 or something like that. 0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:29.480 Bloody tune in absolutely heye. 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:32.920 Quick question about notice though, why if he's got this 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:36.240 eye injury, why couldn't. Most players will persevere you and 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:38.240 just keep going and going and going because you're a 0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:39.120 long time retired. 0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:40.840 What was the final straw? 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:44.480 What happened twice, so once would be bad too twice 0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:45.960 and then I think got to the stage where if 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:48.680 it happens again, maybe he would lose permanent eyesight in 0:14:48.760 --> 0:14:49.200 that eye. 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:51.720 And he was training in the goggles to try and 0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:52.520 go down that path. 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:55.960 But it's also it's also a bloke who he's not 0:14:56.080 --> 0:14:59.320 pushing towards something else. I mean, obviously Crow supporters will say, 0:14:59.320 --> 0:15:01.360 well the season, we'll see what happens in terms of 0:15:01.360 --> 0:15:04.240 a premiership. But if premiership's not in sight this year 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:07.040 or maybe next year, there's nothing left for Roy Slane 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:09.280 to achieve two hundred and fifty five games, everything that 0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:12.280 you could achieve personally, Yeah, he's done at all. 0:15:12.400 --> 0:15:15.160 Yeah, I've got a theory on this. The final shore 0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:17.360 just didn't want to be like Mason Cox. 0:15:21.760 --> 0:15:23.560 This is what you will look like with the goggles 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:24.280 on the field. 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:26.960 Call a press conference to mine. 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.240 It's a hard note from me, Yeah exactly, Hey, just 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:33.120 round it out. 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:34.800 It's a bit of showdown chat as well. We'll go 0:15:34.800 --> 0:15:36.960 over to Port adelaide. Hey, don't rule that kind of 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:39.320 rosie just yet. Is that rageous? 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:40.040 It's crazy. 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:41.840 So he came off from the weekend with a genuine 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:46.040 hamstring injury, a small hamstring injury, very insignificant, but to 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:49.800 hamstring injury nonetheless, and he was running yesterday, he was 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:52.520 doing run throughs, and the scam came back saying that 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:56.280 there's some small damage there. So by all reports, main 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:57.800 session today, they're going to give a bit of a 0:15:57.800 --> 0:15:58.840 test and see how he goes. 0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:02.400 Yeah, right, okay, that kind a rosy game change, isn't he? 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:05.720 So will that decide your tips? Will determine your tips 0:16:05.720 --> 0:16:06.600 if Connor's. 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:06.680 In or out? 0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:07.880 Oh, it's big business. 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.920 I think that will genuinely decide a few people's tips 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:13.120 whether Connor Rose is in or not, because Sport go 0:16:13.200 --> 0:16:15.240 into Obo his favorites. But the Crows have just got 0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:17.200 the wood over the power recently and showed up. 0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:20.160 And I would say to you, tip with your head, 0:16:20.360 --> 0:16:21.880 not your heart when it comes to Connor. 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:26.280 Okay, all right, all right, I always tip my heart. 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:28.920 Dip my heart way too much, you do, don't. I 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:34.720 tipped Port last year during the bye that was silly 0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:39.000
