Speaker 3: the nineteen hundreds when swimming sort of first started at

16
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 3: the Olympics. So it's a long standing rivalry and it's

17
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,200
Speaker 3: a competition where we come together. The USA have flown out.

18

00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 2: Wow, I relay in the ocean. There'll also be other

24
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 2: events I know in the pool. But who's swimming, who's

25
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 2: on who's on the in the Australian team.

26
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 3: Oh, we've got amazing athletes, so walking behind Emma McKean

27
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 3: at the moment, we've got Molly O'Callahan. We've got amazing athletes.

28
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 3: We got Zach Suwy Cook gold medalists and two hundred

29
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 3: breshaker at the Olympics. We've got Cody Simpson back in

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 3: the pool, which is amazing. So yeah, we've got a

31
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 3: really strong team and I can't wait to see them

32
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 3: dominate the US.

33
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,839
Speaker 4: And these events they're a little bit cavaliers sort of events,

34
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 4: aren't they. They're not the usual standard events you would

35
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 4: have in a swim meet.

36
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 3: No, they're going to be so much fun and I

37
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 3: can't wait. Because there used to be a tournament called

38
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 3: the Skins Meat and it used to be three by

39
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: fifties and they will walk back, so you don't get

40
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 3: to see that in a typical event, and that's what

41
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 3: makes it so much fun. It's about really unique competitions,

42
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 3: it's about getting out, and it's all really strategy. It's

43
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 3: about how hard do you go and how much do

44
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 3: you push? And you can push the double points. So

45
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: if you get the double points, but the USA can

46
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 3: snatch it away from you. So it's a whole lot

47
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 3: of fun in that way. And it's kind of like

48
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 3: I would say, like the T twenty of cricket, Like

49
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 3: it's kind of you know, quick and fast and enjoyable.

50
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 3: So it's a great way to do swimming.

51
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: All the years that you've all swum in the pool,

52
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 2: ocean swimming, it would be a very different game I'm imagining.

53
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, That's why I never did it. There's so

54
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 3: much stuff in the ocean that I get scared of.

55
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 3: But Bonda's break it's you know, it's fairly flat today,

56
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 3: it's not too many big ways. It's going to be

57
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: a bit chilly for them, but that's okay. They they

58
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 3: can cope with chili water. So yeah, I can't wait

59
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 3: to watch it. We're just walking down now to Bondi

60
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 3: and just looking at the setup and it looks great.

61
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 4: All you've got to do is watch it for a hipster.

62
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 4: You'll be fine.

63
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 2: I'll try don't don't swim into a hipster an over

64
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: priced coffee.

65
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 4: And that's exactly It's all you've got to deal with, Liza.

66
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 3: You'll be fine with that, exactly.

67
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 4: Well, I'm liking the eye of this. If you can,

68
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 4: guys can get a pool pony race, if you can

69
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 4: negotiate that somehow, or maybe a game of Marco Polo

70
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 4: that would be next.

71
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, big game of Marco Polo. I think Australia might

72
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 3: win that. We are champions at the Marco Polo tournament,

73
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 3: especially when.

74
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,000

75
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:15,440
