1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,760
Speaker 1: Brian Daniels to talk sport and there's a lot of

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: cricket a look going on.

3
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 2: So are we going to start with Justin Langer and

4
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:09,319
Speaker 2: what's happened there.

5
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of noise this week, a lot

6
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 3: of noise that you may have heard it, you may not.

7
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 3: I'm going to give you some background to it. So

8
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 3: six weeks ago I'm in that may not camp right.

9
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 3: I'll try to fill you in as quickly as I can.

10
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 3: Six weeks ago, Jail goes on Will Schofield's Backchat podcast.

11
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 3: It's a great listen, like, really really nice, enjoyable. Aaron

12
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 3: forty five minute interview. From that interview, a couple of places,

13
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 3: including the Telegraph, have discovered a couple of grabs that

14
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 3: they thought, oh geez, that's pretty juicy. I'm going to

15
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 3: take that. I'm going to stick it on the front

16
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 3: page and the back page. And one of them in

17
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 3: particular was a part where Langer said along the lines

18
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 3: of I don't like when they say sources to me.

19
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 3: Sources are now it's come and say it to my face.

20
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 3: If you don't like me, tell me to my face.

21
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 4: Now.

22
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: He didn't refer to any particular play could have been

23
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 3: talking about anybody or even a board member or even

24
00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 3: a CEO, anybody within that organization or in jenuity, fair

25
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 3: comment to fair comment. Fifteen minutes later in the podcast,

26
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 3: he was asked about Pat Cummins and the other players,

27
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 3: and all he said about that was, you know, Pat

28
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 3: came to me, gave me the feedback, and I said, great,

29
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 3: thank you so much. You'll hear about it in a second,

30
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 3: because we spoke to him yesterday.

31
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 5: Anyway, the whole thing blew up.

32
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 3: It became Pat Cummins versus Justin Langer, I hate each other.

33
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: This is weeks after the podcast, weeks after.

34
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 3: The podcast, and well it was only released on Monday.

35
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: Oh that's a key potchet.

36
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 3: But so yesterday I caught up with Justin Layer in

37
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 3: the afternoon. It was a bit hectic in the other

38
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 3: but we got it there. He wanted to clear the

39
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,839
Speaker 3: air and here's what he had to say on seven

40
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 3: News last night.

41
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 6: Seriously, I've been blown away by the last few days Patty. Ironically,

42
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 6: I spoke to Patty on Monday, had a long talk

43
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 6: how the team was going, and how how he's going out,

44
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 6: his family's going, and then all this some of This

45
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 6: rubbish is complete and adult rubbish. I've got so much

46
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 6: respect for Addie Cummins. I think he's a brilliant player.

47
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 6: I think he's an outstanding human being, and so any

48
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 6: thought that there's war between Patti could not be further

49
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 6: from the truth. They're sort of talk about relating the

50
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 6: word coward with Pat Cummins. It could not be further

51
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 6: if you listen to the podcast, I was actually praising Pat,

52
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 6: I was praising Finch, I was praising Tim Payin for

53
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 6: giving me the feedback like it was magic. I was

54
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 6: actually complimenting them, not criticizing them as it's come out.

55
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 6: But you know, it turns into a bushfire.

56
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: What do you do?

57
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 4: What do you do?

58
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: Indeed, there you go.

59
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 3: I mean, you can't get any clearer than that from

60
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 3: Justin Langer and can at this point, you know, I

61
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 3: think we've all been really disillusioned with cricket, particularly here

62
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 3: in WA, but I think there's a national feeling about it.

63
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 5: We're just talking about the g At least.

64
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 2: Four thousand people at the MCG is unprecedented. People will

65
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 2: watch those Melbournians, they will watch two flies crawl up.

66
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 5: A wall and this isg Australia England.

67
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 2: If you call it sport, this is Australia England. Do

68
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: you think that this is people saying not to the

69
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 2: whole tone of everything, not just the contest on the day,

70
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,119
Speaker 2: but the way cricket has been handled here in recent times.

71
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 5: I definitely do. I definitely do. I think this is

72
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 5: a flow on effect.

73
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 3: You know, you got to remember it wasn't that long ago,

74
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 3: what five four or five years ago? The sandpaper stuff happens, right,

75
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 3: Cricket Australia hits an.

76
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 5: All time low. We're all disillusioned with the game. We're like, man,

77
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 5: are we cheats? What's happening here?

78
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 3: Langer comes in, builds them back up, wins and ashes wins.

79
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 3: A World Cup gets just showing the door unceremoniously, or

80
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 3: offered some six month contract, gets offered some token, crappy

81
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 3: contest that no one's signed with any pride whatsoever. And

82
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 3: since then, I just think that the players have become

83
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 3: a little unlocked. Now, speaking to him yesterday, I know

84
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 3: that he loves Australian cricket. He doesn't want anything.

85
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 4: Become a little unlikable.

86
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely.

87
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: I talked about it in the week I'll following cricket

88
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: for over forty years, I don't. I just can't.

89
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 5: Right.

90
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 3: Well, it's disturbing, but I know that Justin Langer doesn't

91
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 3: want that to be the case.

92
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 5: He wants people to love cricket. He loves cricket.

93
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 3: And you know he was saying he can't wait for

94
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 3: the Test next week because those players are going to

95
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 3: be He's going to catch up with them.

96
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 5: Like so I just want to let's.

97
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 3: Put it to bed now, Like, yes, he's probably got

98
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 3: some frustrations with some people in the higher up places,

99
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 3: board members, maybe maybe some other officials. But let's leave

100
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 3: the pat commens versus Justin Lange stuff alone.

101
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 2: You know that doesn't exist, especially the much so many

102
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 2: other things to worry about. If you're to worry about

103
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 2: cricket related stuff at the moment, that's not even a thing.

104
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 4: That's just the Daily Telegraph trying to.

105
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 1: Put the correct responsibility of journalist to get it right.

106
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 3: Well, absolutely, it's not that hard to pick up the phone,

107
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 3: you know, he answers his phone.

108
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 4: I'll say that now the cricket is here next week.

109
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: It is Windys. Yes.

110
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 3: Now, speaking of concerns over tickets, there's not a lot

111
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 3: of tickets that have been sold.

112
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 4: It used to love the Windys in there.

113
00:04:55,880 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 3: Imaginally this was like nine eighty eight out Crows, right, yeah,

114
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 3: but they don't quite have that team anymore. So there

115
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,559
Speaker 3: are big concerns over the number of tickets.

116
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 5: Salts.

117
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 3: If you want some, you can see wherever you're like,

118
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 3: just you know, turn up. You might even be able

119
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 3: to play at this point. Hopefully it starts on Wednesdays,

120
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 3: give me thirty seven degrees, so there is a bit

121
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 3: of you know, really hot day at the cricket under

122
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 3: the shade.

123
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 5: You know, you go, it's a five day.

124
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 3: The concern would be that the Australians will be too

125
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 3: good and they won't even make it to the weekend.

126
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 5: But we'll see what happens. Hopefully it's a great test.

127
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 1: We want a contest.

128
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 5: We do, We really do.

129
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 2: I watched the Fena Uncovered documentary on Netflix this week

130
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 2: to celebrating the World Cup.

131
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 4: It's the documentary about all the corruption.

132
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 5: It was did it go for forty two hours?

133
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: When?

134
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, where for a while?

135
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 5: There's a lot of corruptions.

136
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: There's another World Cup coming up and if you recommend

137
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 2: it for a good doco, yeah, good and timely too.

138
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 4: And time because the World Cup is on and what's

139
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 4: going on.

140
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 3: So the Soccer US they play tomorrow night, that take

141
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 3: on Tunisia.

142
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 5: Big game.

143
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, six pm tomorrow and they lose. Done, it's out out,

144
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 3: could put. They still play Denmark on Wednesday, no matter what.

145
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 5: But it won't matter.

146
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: But the group is because the way the thing's gone

147
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: in the group.

148
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 3: Their chance right absolutely, yeah, they could be absolutely beat

149
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 3: the chad.

150
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, there's two teams out there.

151
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, but if you get the group of death and

152
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: your history and the after the first loss.

153
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 5: Clearly like France's, you know, a level above all these

154
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 5: other things.

155
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 3: Just to give some they Drew's nearl aw with Denmark

156
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 3: in their first game, so that gives.

157
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 4: You that's what I love about soccer nil all draw.

158
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 5: How exciting. But if worse now because you can't drink

159
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 5: at the game.

00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 3: picks inside the top twenty six. This they've got their

189
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 3: highest draft pick, which is eight since twenty ten. The

190
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 3: last time they had to picked this high was twenty

191
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 3: ten Andrew gaff and he's just about retiring. So that's

192
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 3: give you some context. They've interviewed a million players. One

193
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,559
Speaker 3: guy Elijah Hewett, who's a really talented mid from Swan District.

194
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,840

Speaker 3: But I look back, they draft really well late. So

209
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,640
