Speaker 1: they're where they qualified or where they're playing in this match?

20
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:11,199
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, So that competition is national competition. Seven seventy

21
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:16,199
Speaker 2: five teams are propiciitating but hearing dal when it's easier

22
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 2: for us because we need three rounds to qualify to

23
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 2: the thirty two. So we are very very lucky searing Darwin.

24
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 2: And and yes we go straight to the round thirty

25
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 2: two and down south all the teams they need to

26
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 2: qualify I to pass seven.

27
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: Rounds and so Jimmy obviously qualified for round thirty two

28
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: taking on the inter Lince Football Club from Sydney. How

29
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: are they looking? How are your opponents looking?

30
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: Ah, they're looking good, but we're looking.

31
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: Oh we lost to DEMI are you there? Sorry, we

32
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: just lost you there. At one moment you said dialogue good. No,

33
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: it's hoping that you said, but Hellenic's looking better.

34
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're looking better. Yeah as true.

35
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I also said.

36
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 2: Ver eleven grade eleven. We have a chance to say,

37
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 2: is that dream to make the round of sixteen first

38
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: time in Darwin football history? So we are looking forward

39
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 2: to make that to get the gold ticket to the

40
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: round of sixteen for first time for Darwin.

41
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: Like what what would that mean for the Highentic Football

42
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: Club if you do get to that round of sixteen?

43
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: And what would it mean for football in the Northern Territory.

44
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 3: Look, the football and t the Federation of and they

45
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 3: do very very very good job for the last years.

46
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 3: So for me, I stick, I believe that it's a

47
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,359
Speaker 3: huge step forward for the Darwin football to show to

48
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 3: the all Australia that we are here.

49
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: Now dimmy, tell me how is your team looking? And

50
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: uh and the boys pumped, they're ready to go.

51
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. Look, the biggest goal this year I

52
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 2: was to make that do we made that. Now we

53
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 2: are here to leave a dream, to make it happens.

54
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:24,280
