1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to make a fortune this weekend? Why what on? 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: What on? What? Well? Actually UFC's was interesting to throw 3 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: a few bucks on, but I live when I was 4 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: going to make a fortune. There's a guy O'Malley who's 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,480 Speaker 1: fantastic to watch the only band like tiny, like sixty 6 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,279 Speaker 1: something cage what News Watch him? I don't think you'd 7 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: want to. But he's only paying a dollar seventy two 8 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: to win against this guy the velos Veli, who's paying 9 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: two fifteen, So that's probably too tight to go putting 10 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: a wholem of money on. But for me, it's the 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:35,879 Speaker 1: excitement of watching it to see you're going to win 12 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: or lose, but the fight itself is going to be amazing. 13 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: This O'Malley is one of the best strikers you'll see. 14 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 1: Super skinny, really really long, really long arms, and he 15 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: targets people. He knows where they're button is, so he 16 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 1: touches them a bit, sees where it is, and he 17 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: can throw punches at the strangest angles out of anywhere. 18 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 2: Is he from Ireland? 19 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: Absolutely well, I think he's got Irish blood, but he's 20 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: an American. He's got a great back still. If you 21 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: want to look at some old UFC documentaries. The trouble 22 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: is Vashavili gets him on the deck, could be a 23 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: real problem. He might be able to get up. He's 24 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: got a good background take one. No, but whether he 25 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: can we don't know. So tight so maybe not a 26 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: lot of money to be made. But I kind of 27 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: like to bet from time to time to the tab. 28 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: I might add I am over eighteen, which you have 29 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: to be, and I will bet responsibly. It's just because 30 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: it adds a bit of that extra pep, you know, 31 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: it makes it a little bit more Still we So 32 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: that's me this weekend. 33 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 2: Do you know what what is interesting to watch the cricket? 34 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: Why? What's interesting about watching rain? 35 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 2: What the hell's going on? This is? 36 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: Dave? 37 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: Are we going to give up on this? Well? 38 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: I thought we should have given up after day two, 39 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: even earlier. 40 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 2: Okay, why did they? Why did they schedule a game 41 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 2: like this at the end of the season of rain? 42 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,279 Speaker 1: Well, you see, the monsoon season apparently finishes mid August, 43 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: and of course you can always predict the vagaries a lot. 44 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: Well, it's not actually the rain season. It's like, well 45 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 2: passed it. 46 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: I cut two weeks or three weeks an can't predict 47 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: anything on that or what it is is. Afghanistan had 48 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: the opportunity to go to the places that we want 49 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: to go here. It's been given the rubber stamp by 50 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: the BCCI. It's being a place you can play cricket 51 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 1: at and then it rained and then it wouldn't dry up, 52 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: so there were close to a big f gunny community. 53 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: So we need to go there, close to the nice hotel. 54 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: So thought you know we're going to go there. Absolutely 55 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: does that a black eye as well for the BCCI, 56 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 1: it's there. I think in total they've got thirty test 57 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: venues or have done over the years. I don't know 58 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: how many still going there. About fourteen fifteen, well yeah, 59 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: I think the twelfth current one, but there's been a 60 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: whole lot more. But to say that's okay, no warrant 61 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: of fitness, No, that's ridiculous. 62 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: And the beginning, yeah, okay, Now do we know what 63 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 2: the smallspin is to read the trans thing that that 64 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 2: Jave Gerard and the other Olympians raised yesterday? Do we 65 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 2: know what the sports minister is going to do here? 66 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 1: You never know what ministers are going to do. You've 67 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: been in this trade long enough haven't you. 68 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 2: He just sounded a bit vague like he was like, yeah, 69 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: we're going to put fairness in along with inclusivity. Well 70 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 2: that's very subjective, isn't it. 71 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: I think the key thing out of this is that 72 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 1: guidelines in place so the sporting bodies can actually make 73 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: a decision. Because the sporting bodies, and there's a number 74 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: of them, actually don't have any guidelines around engaging trans athletes. 75 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: That to means alarming. Look some of the lines that 76 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: they've crossed. People say they don't go far enough or 77 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: they go too far, but at least they've got them there, 78 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: so you've got an idea. It's like, here is our line, 79 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: here are the rules. This is what you can and 80 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: can't do. Agree or disagree. At least we know when 81 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: sports don't have that, it's manifested the unfair for everybody. Yes, 82 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: I don't. It's not a punch down on transgender people 83 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: saying we want these things, especially for physical sports, for 84 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,839 Speaker 1: athletes that transitioned after pubert as males to females and 85 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: striking sports and the like. Yeah, rugby, I get that. Absolutely, 86 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: they need to have something that's fair and in place. 87 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: It's in balance. So I don't think it's an attack 88 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: on the trans community. I think just people need to 89 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: be told where the lines are. 90 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 2: Well everybody else, you know, even the trans athletes, they 91 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: can participate on it. 92 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: And I think the interesting about this as well is 93 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: that the percentage of athletes who engage who are trans, 94 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 1: I would say, be very very very very small. So 95 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: I don't think it affects a huge amount of people. 96 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: And sometimes you feel they make too much the anti 97 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: trans the pro females about this when it's really quite small. 98 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: But guidelines, guidelines, and I think you need them in place. 99 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 2: Thank you, Darcy, appreciate it. What is what's onou? My self? 100 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: Identification doesn't work when it comes to something like bos 101 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: Are you talking about this tonight? No, I'm actually going 102 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: to talk about something completely different, which is I'm going 103 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: to talk about the need for personality and sports people. 104 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: After what we saw today with King Charles and a 105 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,679 Speaker 1: number of blokes sports you don't is it important, yes, 106 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: to engage with the athletes as sports people or is 107 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: it fired up? 108 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: We'll see this is going to get me fired up. 109 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: We love the fact that the black fans do this, 110 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: and then. 111 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: We look at the all Blacks and go. It's just 112 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 2: beige brigade. 113 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: It is. But what's more important? Is it their results? 114 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: Or is it how they present as human beings? And 115 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: I'd suggest the all blacks have been so successful no 116 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: one cares that they're boring. 117 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 2: No, we do. 118 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: As soon as they start losing, people are going, hold on, 119 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: you got a personality, all right? 120 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: Got to go, bring up Darcy.
