So to rub salt 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: in the wound there eron but oh. 10 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 2: I know I should have my Order of Australia taken 11 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 2: off of me. That was horrendous. 12 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 3: I would hope so, I would bloody hope so. And 13 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 3: we'll take it, will take it, will take you, yeah, 14 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 3: as a duo. But Aaron, the reason we've got you 15 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 3: on is we'd love to hear your perspective on I 16 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 3: think it's the biggest news this week, even if you're 17 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 3: not a sports fan or cricket fan, But it's tim 18 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 3: pain with those that scandal that's come back up or 19 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 3: re emerge. It happened in twenty seventeen. He sent some 20 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 3: lude pictures to a staffer of cricket Tasmania. What he 21 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 3: did was very wrong, but again he has sorted out 22 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 3: with his wife. And the question to you is do 23 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 3: you think, as an athlete or a sportsperson in the 24 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 3: public eye that you have a higher standard to hit 25 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 3: as far as the way you live your life. 26 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely I do. And you know what the thing is, 27 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 2: we're in the public eye, and so naturally that just 28 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 2: comes with extra responsibilities of being a decent human and 29 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 2: modeling itself the right way to people. So you know 30 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 2: a lot of athletes do think it's unfair, but that's 31 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 2: just that kind of comes with the job. And it's 32 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 2: also a privilege, I've got to say, like getting to 33 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 2: do something that you absolutely love and to have the 34 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 2: power in the platform to be able to go and 35 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 2: be a positive influence for young people for the next generation, Like, 36 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: that's really powerful. And I always think of it now 37 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: as you know, if my younger version looked up to me, 38 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 2: now would I would they be happy with me? But honestly, 39 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 2: isn't that hard just to be a decent human? 40 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: I don't think so. 41 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 2: It's just the right thing, and you know that that 42 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: should be what you should do at the end of 43 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 2: the day. 44 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: It's a good thing to aim for one hundred percent. 45 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: It's a good message as well there And I think 46 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: I think a part of me did I do feel 47 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: I actually do feel sorry for Tim Payne because I 48 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: do think people make mistakes yea, and people flirt with 49 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: other people and that's I mean, how many times do 50 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 1: we have to see that on the news to know 51 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: that people will continue? It doesn't matter how many times 52 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: you've been married or redone your vows or whatever. You're 53 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: going to feel attracted to other people. That's going to happen. 54 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: And I think the part of me that felt sorry 55 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: for him was that he made up with his family. 56 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: His wife gave him, they've obviously been through a whole 57 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: bunch of therapy, and then it just got dragged out 58 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: into the public again in front of his family. That 59 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: was the hard thing to watch. That was the bit 60 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 1: where it was like, geez, I think they've been through it, yeah, 61 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: And I. 62 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 2: Think you said it perfectly, like we all make mistakes, right, 63 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 2: And it's you know, and what we love like human behavior. 64 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 2: We love to like tear people down and we love 65 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 2: to you know. 66 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:56,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. 67 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 2: We want to We want the public wants to scope. 68 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: We want, we want to sacrifice somebody we can pin 69 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: up and hang all our own issues on. 70 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: We protect onto them definitely. But you know, I'm like 71 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 2: the biggest thing now for tim and for those that 72 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 2: do make mistakes, in which we all do. Like I said, 73 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 2: some are more significant than others. It's what you do next, 74 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 2: you know, And how do you can correct correct that, 75 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: how you can then learn and teach from your mistakes 76 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,679 Speaker 2: so that someone else doesn't do the same thing. I 77 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 2: think that's really important. I think as society we've got to, 78 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 2: you know, we've got to have a bit of empathy 79 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: for people although they have done the wrong thing, and 80 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 2: try to help them become better, you know, rather than 81 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: just let's bury them. Yeah. 82 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: No, that's right, And that's that's the vibe at the moment, 83 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: I hope, because I know the Australian team, the actual 84 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: cricket team itself, came out and said that they were 85 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: really unhappy with the way that it got brought up. 86 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: Again and they wanted to play in the ashes and 87 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 3: he can. He can still play in the ashes, just 88 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 3: won't be the captain. So I do think that is 89 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 3: somewhat of a good middle ground to a fit with 90 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 3: it all coming out. Karon, thanks so much for your 91 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 3: time and any word on the new AFL season. Hey, 92 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 3: feeling for it? 93 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, really excited.

Yeah, 102 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 2: we're always going to do so. Yeah, it's going to 103 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 2: take South Australians a while to get used to it. 104 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 2: You guys have been used for so long.

I do what 108 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: I was worried about how they're going to pick him 109 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: at security, But I reckon if they just put you 110 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: at the security gate and you just got a chance 111 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: to spear tackle them if they walked through, then maybe 112 00:04:58,960 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: they'll keep them out. 113 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: I'll be there. 114 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: Thanks, so much for joining us ARIN It's always a pleasure, mate, 115 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: and yeah, hopefully in person next time.
