Right, Darcy Watergrave sports talk hosters with that. Darcy, Hello,
mad Awai are you good? So you've got Scott Dixon
on the show, have you?

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Oh yeah, it's fanboy Central. I'm unashamed of this. What
a tremendous individual, What an amazing driver, what enormous success.
And he's such a good interview he really is. He
must get tired of the same questions over and over again.
But me listens, he contributes, he expands on the interview.
Here he is about to hit the ground running. And

(00:27):
what twenty third or twenty fourth Indianapolis? I've lost count.
It's been over two decades.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Madness, madness, All right, Well he'll be on after seven then,
and what have you got with the Black Fans.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Yeah, we'll push him later on the piece because in
a bit of length, so it'd probably be around about
twenty to eight. I'd say before you hear that, we'll
talk a bit of AKFC before that with Jonathan Gold,
the goalkeeping coach. Really interest people's action and dramas around that.
What their narrative is huge game coming up on Saturday

(01:02):
year and the Black Ferns. It's been released, so we
know for this upcoming match who they're going to be using,
and there's there's there's a handful of SEVENS players in there,
there's a couple of newbies in there. And the the
glory around verse is that ahead of the releasing of
the World Cup squad and I haven't put my finger
on an absolute date yet, I'll find it somewhere, I'm

(01:24):
sure is they're they're utilizing a lot of players, so
they're they're circling and a lot of SEVENS players have
turned up. We had a lot of this couple before
debutants in the side. So everyone's get a chance to
impress themselves upon Alan Bunting the coach, bunts the coach
before they make that call. So I think the big
ones who are looking at as recipury Lane has been

(01:44):
given a chance. Georgia Miller is a rock star and
seven's well worth watching. She's got a crap, crack crap,
got a crack as well live radio that it's all good. Hey,
did they the budget gives bought anything? I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
No, there's no money for anything, no money for sport.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
No money for anything at all.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
No, not really, especially not if you're a woman. Apparently, Hey,
Darcy thank you, appreciate it. You go look after yourself
as Darcy Watergrave sports talk host seven o'clock. Not a
woman seven o'clock here, Definitely not a woman'd be. I mean,
obviously when I say that, I say tongue in cheek
because I don't actually care about it. But on that subject,
by the way, Darcy, off you go by now, Thanks
