1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,520
Speaker 1: Right, Daniels, good morning.

2
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:01,920
Speaker 2: Good morning.

3
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 3: Hey. Do you hate that when your helicopter upsets the neighbors?

4
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hate that.

5
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:08,639
Speaker 4: I try to get the quieter ones, you know, the ones,

6
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 4: the new ones, the hybrids.

7
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 5: There when you yeah, yeah, but you've got mister Stokes

8
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 5: for picking up that's true.

9
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:16,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's on the other days.

10
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, mate, very nice.

11
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:26,479
Speaker 4: I'm good finally good bye, yeah, goodbye bye. It's over

12
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 4: and we're back in footy season the finals.

13
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 3: They're finally here.

14
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 4: So big week for the Dockers, obviously first finally seven years,

15
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 4: their first final. So they had a big training session

16
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 4: on Saturday, which I think we spoke about on Friday,

17
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 4: which was you know, fans come down, and they did

18
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 4: have a really good little crowd come down and real

19
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 4: passionate cheer them on and it's a nice moment and

20
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 4: everyone got through. Okay, So Fiffey and griff and Low

21
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 4: did everything they needed to do, so you can put

22
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 4: a tick on both of those guys. Rory Lobb did

23
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 4: a bit less, but that was expected, and Tabna did

24
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 4: even less than that. So I would say the likelihood

25
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 4: is that log five lock them in. Lob I would

26
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 4: say yes, and Taberna at this point is probably the

27
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 4: one to watch this week. Now the question is then

28
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 4: as well, can you play Lob and Taberna together anymore?

29
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 4: Now that logos kind of switch forward and you've got

30
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 4: five down there, you start to get almost too many people.

31
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 4: But I think the way they see Matt Taberna is

32
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 4: that he is a guy who on his day.

33
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 3: Can win them a final.

34
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 4: Yep, And in finals you need multiple guys who can

35
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 4: do that because not everyone stands up in that moment.

36
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 4: So maybe it's Rory Lobby kicks three or four. Maybe

37
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 4: it's Taberna who kicks three or four, maybe five. He

38
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 4: finds that forward line form that we've been looking for,

39
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 4: So you need multiple guys who can do that in

40
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 4: the moment with also not being too tall, because the

41
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 4: weather is looking a little bit shaky for Saturday night,

42
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 4: so you've got to take all these things into account.

43
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 4: And that will be the biggest thing on Justin Lomia

44
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 4: and his selection committee's mind this week. How do we

45
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 4: build this team with the weather? Bulldogs are a fast team.

46
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 4: Is taberna A going to be fit enough? All of

47
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 4: these questions that they have to mull over, so they've

48
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 4: got a light training session today. Tomorrow the players get

49
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 4: a day off and then Wednesday, Thursday.

50
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 3: They'll go real hard. Friday the Bulldogs flying to town.

51
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 4: Docors will do a light sort of session themselves and

52
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 4: then it's game on Saturday night.

53
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: Baby.

54
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 5: You also don't want to take a risk with finals

55
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 5: with too many blokes coming in injured.

56
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 4: Susceptible was that Maltaus always is to say that, you know,

57
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 4: you don't play anyone who's not one hundred percent in

58
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 4: a final just because they if they do get hurt.

59
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 4: I mean it's a bit different now I get the

60
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 4: sub it's still you don't want people who are underdone.

61
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 4: And we've seen, having won in that game against Esthena

62
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 4: earlier in the year, seven goals at Marvel, and I

63
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 4: just think when he's in that team he does straighten

64
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 4: them up a little bit and it gives Rory Lobb

65
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 4: the second best defender.

66
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 3: So I don't know.

67
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 4: The Bulldogs are looking pretty good too. Marcus Bonderpelli and

68
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 4: the Ductor assure he's all good to go. So it's

69
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 4: shaping up to be a massive final. I spoke to

70
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 4: Simon Garlic the other day.

71
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 3: We did it.

72
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean things are going really well at Fremantle.

73
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 4: So you're sitting there and you're going, well, I don't

74
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 4: have anything controversial to ask him, because are great. So

75
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 4: how good a thing, Simon. He's like, yeah, really good,

76
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 4: thank you, And that was about the interview, but.

77
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: In about Luke Jackson, but he sort of did.

78
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 3: He sort of yeah.

79
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 4: He basically said, look, we don't talk about opposition players,

80
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 4: but we've put ourselves in a position financially where we

81
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,119
Speaker 4: could bring in other players. So he sort of roundabout said, look,

82
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 4: we're in the mix. But they do have this sort

83
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 4: of thing where they don't like to talk about other players,

84
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 4: which I understand that's a respect thing.

85
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 2: I see that the Eagles had their isn't their fare

86
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 2: and Best?

87
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, well they call the club Champion Awards John Wollsford.

88
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, everybody.

89
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 4: Everybody got a sticker and said I ran in a race,

90
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 4: although some of them didn't even get to run in

91
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 4: the race.

92
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: No.

93
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 4: Look, I think on those nights, it's fascinating when you

94
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 4: go to those awards. I didn't go on Friday night,

95
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 4: but I've been to plenty where it's been bad seasons,

96
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 4: plenty where it's been good seasons for both clubs, and

97
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 4: the bad ones are almost more interesting in some ways

98
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 4: because those are tough years.

99
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 3: To get through. So it's fascinating to hear year the

100
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 3: leader's talk.

101
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 4: It's fascinating to see who stood up in those really

102
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 4: crummy years. And so Tom Barriss wins his first John

103
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 4: walls Ford Medal, and he was superb this year. He

104
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 4: really was, like, so, if you're going to take something

105
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 4: out of this season, you look at things like that

106
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 4: and you go, well, maybe Baris wouldn't have been the

107
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 4: best and fairest winner had he not had those injuries

108
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 4: around him, had an opportunity.

109
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 3: To stand up and be the guy down back.

110
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 4: McGovern's out, a couple other defenders go down, So things

111
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 4: like that you can take forward. So next year he

112
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 4: goes into the season with you know this confidence this, Hey,

113
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 4: I'm the best player at the club.

114
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 3: Last year, I can do this.

115
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 4: Shannon Hern was second in the BNF and Tim Kelly

116
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 4: was third. Best young player was Brady Hoff. He had

117
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 4: a really good season as well, and I'm adamant I

118
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 4: don't think he would have played a game had they

119
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 4: been fully healthy, because he was this sort of skinny,

120
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 4: raw kid, you know, coming from the country footy and

121
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 4: he ended up playing I think about fifteen or sixteen games,

122
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 4: which is again another positive that you tick on it.

123
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 4: Oscar Allen won Chris Main wearing medal. Is the best

124
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 4: club not bed for Goud.

125
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: I didn't play a game, is it because all the

126
00:04:58,480 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: stuff he was doing around the club?

127
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 3: Well there go, there's another one. Right.

128
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 4: So Oscar Allan immerses himself and all this other stuff, right,

129
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 4: he helps me coaching, he helps with the match day,

130
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 4: he helps with, you know, developing some of the other guys.

131
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 4: And so there's another little tick. And I'm looking for

132
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 4: positives here. I know it was a disastrous year, but

133
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 4: there are little things that you can just say, okay,

134
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 4: well let's take some of that and drag it into

135
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 4: next year and hopefully he is a positive uptick.

136
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 5: Absolutely, yeah, they are important nights after a bad year.

137
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 5: You want to have the CEO, the coach and the

138
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 5: president have to say that's right.

139
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's on glassharf full this morning.

140
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 2: Are you sitting on a lotus?

141
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I am. I am with the helicopter. There's only

142
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 3: a couple other ones in the air.

143
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 1: The afl W Rhino is back.

144
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 4: It is it sure is and we're just having a

145
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 4: bit of a chat about it. And I wrote something

146
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 4: for the paper on Saturday about where the AFLW is at.

147
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 4: And look, I'm a big believer that this league is

148
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 4: going to be big. I think they're investing a lot

149
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 4: of money in it. I think over time, when you

150
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 4: get a lot more of these athletes coming in that

151
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 4: have played footy for their whole lives, because they can

152
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 4: see these girls playing and they can go hey, like

153
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 4: a little five six year old girl, my daughter, for instance,

154
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 4: would go I want to play footy because I can

155
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 4: see girls playing footy right. But we haven't had that before.

156
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 4: So I think there's a slow process in getting really

157
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 4: high quality and enough high quality players in there to

158
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 4: get to a standard when everybody's watching these games going

159
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 4: how good is this? But right now we're still watching

160
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 4: games and we're going, oh, okay, this game not so great.

161
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 4: Like Geelong and Richmond yesterday the score was fifteen to

162
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 4: eleven for the whole game. So you're just you're struggling

163
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 4: a little bit in that space. And I don't think

164
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 4: it's anything to do with the athletes. They're working their

165
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,359
Speaker 4: butts off, their training hard, and they're getting better and

166
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 4: better every year you can see improvement. But the league

167
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 4: started with eight teams seven eight years.

168
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 3: Ago, I think it was.

169
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 4: They now have eighteen teams, right, so that is a

170
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 4: significant increase articulous. Well, if you do the playing list,

171
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 4: it's two hundred and forty players to five hundred and

172
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 4: forty players. So they've just plucked three hundred extra players.

173
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 3: And that's not even not.

174
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 4: Even taking into account that of those original two hundred

175
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 4: and forty it was probably about one hundred and eight

176
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 4: high end. Yes, So it's really difficult to expand anything that.

177
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: Quickly, creating these people to very big. The men's competition

178
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 2: did evolve over one hundred and twenty plus.

179
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 3: Years, correct, And it didn't.

180
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: There wasn't just eighteen teams from the beginning.

181
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 5: So I've become eighteen from eighteen seven years marketing things,

182
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 5: every club goes well, every.

183
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 4: Class wanted a team, right, So originally there was a

184
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: few clubs who were a bit like, we'll see how

185
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 4: this goes. And then once yeah, once it sort of

186
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 4: came in and went bang like that first season, it

187
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 4: was great. Every team was like, well, now we want

188
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 4: to see him, and we want to see him, and

189
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 4: they were being quite pushy and aggressive about it.

190
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 3: Suddenly you expand really quickly and you've.

191
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: Done cutting off your nose despite your face exactly.

192
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 4: So look, I still believe that we're looking at in

193
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 4: ten years time things will be great because it just

194
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 4: slows the growing down.

195
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,679
Speaker 2: I think you just because if it's not interesting to watch, well,

196
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 2: then you've lost your audience.

197
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 3: Yeah you do.

198
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, used to get the passionate, the diehards, and there

199
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 4: is a lot of those people. And as I said,

200
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 4: I think we'll get there, but just I think the

201
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 4: process has slowed down.

202
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 5: It's also very costly thing to run. You don't want

203
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 5: the AFL backing off from how much they're supporting it

204
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 5: because you're not getting the money the revenue through the.

205
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 3: Correct Yeah, i've lost my glass half full and.

206
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: Now glass sorry, But we need to be honest about it.

207
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 3: That's true. Yeah, and I think that that's the key.

208
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 4: Please, here's a bit honesty about and actually watching it

209
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 4: and giving your honest opinion rather than just going yeah,

210
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 4: that's great, let's ignore it.

211
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: Over into that because it doesn't mean you're not supporting it.

212
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 3: That's correct.

213
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: Wanted a big good quality and there.

214
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 3: Are some unbelievable players in the AFL w yep.

215
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: Absolutely, the cricket is back.

216
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, the cricket's back. It's a summer started early.

217
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 4: It's a bit cold, but in Townsville it's probably warm

218
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 4: because that's where they played. So Andrew Simon's obviously he

219
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 4: passed away over the over the earlier part of this year.

220
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 4: This is the first game that the Aussie team has

221
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 4: played in Australia since he passed, so there was a

222
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 4: tribute there for him pre game.

223
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 3: It was quite nice. A lot of the things that

224
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 3: he loved.

225
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 4: They brought to the wicket, his kids, chloeing Will they

226
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 4: were the drink runners for the Aussie team. So it

227
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 4: was a really nice moment. And then the Aussies went

228
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 4: on and did him proud. They beat Zimbabwe by five wickets.

229
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 4: Dave Warner was solid fifty seven and Steve Smith forty

230
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 4: eight not out. But our boy Cam Green, the next

231
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 4: superstar of cricket in Australia, wa boy five for thirty three,

232
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 4: so great for Cam that's his best numbers in any

233
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 4: Australian team.

234
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 3: So he is rising fast.

235
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: And in cricket. The Scorches did something weird in selection. Yeah,

236
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: on the weekend.

237
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 3: Well, we were all watching the all of us.

238
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 4: I was watching the draft yesterday and he said, ok, okay,

239
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 4: who they get a pick at selection number six, and

240
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 4: on the board you've got big names, you know, Faftu

241
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 4: plus Andre Russell, Kiiran Pollard, Dwayne Bravo. These are elite

242
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 4: T twenty players in the world names, And the Scorches

243
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 4: get to their pick and Adam Voges says, yeah, will pass,

244
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 4: will pass pass, and everyone's going, what's.

245
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 1: Contestant on the chaser?

246
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, he just didn't an answer to the question. It

247
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 4: was like, just say one of those names, Adam Big.

248
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 4: But they were being clever, right. So the scorches big

249
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 4: thing has always been about culture and consistency. So a

250
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 4: lot of those players I mentioned said he has said, yeah, yeah,

251
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 4: we'll play in the Big Bash, but we'll only play

252
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 4: five games, which is six games. Yeah it was seven,

253
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 4: and then I'm going to go off to the UAE

254
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 4: and earn ten times the amount.

255
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 3: What the Scorches want.

256
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 4: They want players who are going to be there from

257
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 4: the start of the tournament right through to the end

258
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 4: of the tournament, so you get consistency. It atually becomes

259
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 4: a team and that's why they've been so successful in

260
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 4: almost all of the scorches wins. They have never had

261
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 4: the most talented team, but they've had the best team.

262
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 4: So I think that's a smart approach and it's the

263
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 4: scorch away and you've got.

264
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 3: To back them in it is right.

265
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 4: So they got Lourie Evans at their next pick, pick twelve.

266
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 4: He was the guy who was the player of the final.

267
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 4: They picked up Phil Salton, time Or Mills, a couple

268
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 4: of English guys. So they've just they've done it the

269
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 4: scorch away.

270
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 3: We've got to back them.

271
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: In the madness.

272
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that. I like that lot. And we're

273
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 3: still on cricket. Yeah, very sportsman.

274
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 4: Speaking of cricket woman, the preseason for local cricket has

275
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,680

Speaker 4: chirp and can you imagine she'd talk you off the field,

281
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 4: but watching her, she talk you into a wicket the last.

282
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 4: She's never been playing for a couple of years and

283
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 4: she's just fallen completely head over heels in love with

284
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 4: this game and it's it's actually been pretty inspiring to watch.

Speaker 4: would consider going down because watching Susie fall in love,

289
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 4: as I said, with cricket, it's been pretty amazing.
