Speaker 4: right A few yes, No.

46
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 5: They are and I think with the inception of the

47
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 5: second team in Melbourne a few years back now it

48
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 5: was Melbourne Heart. Uh, then they came became Melbourne City

49
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 5: and then ever since then, it's just built up this

50
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 5: beautiful rivalry and you see across the world. I mean

51
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 5: some of these massive games that you have round Madrid, Barcelona,

52
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 5: Boca Juniors against Real Plate and this, you know, for

53
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 5: Australian football is probably one of the biggest, along with

54
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 5: maybe Sydney and Western Sydney.

55
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,240

Speaker 1: to Network ten ten Play and Paramount Plays.

74
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 3: So arch removing the bias.

75
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 4: So we had Auckland which topped the top of the

76
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 4: table and I'm a bit surprised they're not there, but

77
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 4: Victory knocked him off last week and so now it's

78
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:29,880

79
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,040

00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 3: one go?

82
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: Well, it's been incredible favorites. Well, it's very.

83
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 5: Even to be honest, I will say with Melbourne Victory

84
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 5: doing what they did over in Auckland was pretty amazing

85
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 5: because Auckland have been really strong all season and to

86
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 5: win like they did over there, I just feel that

87
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 5: they're really battle hardened from that match to come to

88
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 5: a Grand Final. But I will say big matches seems

89
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 5: to always bring the best out. Melbourne Victory Thompson.

90
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,080

Speaker 1: here in Australia.

105
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 5: Well, I mean it's divided. You could call it whatever

106
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 5: you like. I mean it's soccer, it's football. I mean

107
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,880
