Speaker 1 (00:00):
Let's talk sport with the Adrian Barrage.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
When you've got to get work here, you've got to
get into work Clobber.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
Their eight trade stores are everywhere, so when you need
it you can get it or check out work Clobber
dot com dot atu. The Good Morning and the Great Man.
He's back in Purple. He's ready to go. Oh good
luck to hate and.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Young too good hating Young against Collin with to the
top team at the MCG. Could there be a biggest
stage for you to come back? Can you imagine Young,
You're now sixty six days out coming into.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
The radio station everywhere. Oh yeah, you were clarzy.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Maybe next week he has a great give me a
couple of couple of weeks, I'll be back. And now
he's back, so on the big stage. It's a huge
shot in the arm for Freemantle. Of course, just seeing
him in the rooms and that headband and the you know,
the blonde hair. I think I'm pretty sure he'll be
the sub. So he won't actually be in the twenty two.
(00:57):
I think he'll be the actual sub so, which makes sense.
He will sort of come on late in the game.
Hopefully they'll keep him warm and you know that keeping
him ready to go is the big thing. When he's
sitting out the game for three quarters, Hopefully he doesn't
have to come on too early. And I've given him
a big shot to win on Sunday as well. I
think I reckon they are a huge chance. They nearly
(01:17):
beat him here. There's no bigger test in foot e
than facing the Pies at the g No and it's
there'll be finals material if they beat Collingwood and they'll
certainly be preliminary final material if they beat him. They
knocked him off. He should have knocked him off. It
off the stadium. It was only like six or eight
weeks ago. The Pies were off a five day break.
They left a few stars at home, I admit that,
but the stats showed I think the Docs had inside
(01:38):
fifty sixty.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Three to thirty four, unheard of to lose a game.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
They won the clearances forty four to twenty nine, but
they just kept kicking the ball back to Darcy Cameron
and Billy Frampton and people like that. There's a record
sixteen intercept marks that the Pies took. So they're a
better team now. So I think it's going to be
I Reckon. It's going to be a really great game.
No Bobby Hill for the Pies. Yeah, he's got a
few personal things going on.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Chase, he might come home.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Well, it's a good question actually, because I'll tell you what.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
He's from here, and if his partner wants to stay
in w A and he's homesick, well, you know what,
I think the Dockers would move Heaven and Earth they
are after because he pick it they can't get him. Yeah,
that's a very interesting question actually, and probably one that
we need to prosecute over the next couple of weeks.
The Eagles, they host Richmond Saturday night, a feeling about
(02:30):
tomorrow night. Yeah, they nearly beat him at the g
this year. Tommy Gross got run down that incredible tackle.
To see that, he thought he's back in the waffle.
He didn't realize. He's got to get rid of it.
For old Tommy. He'll learn from that. He'll be sweet.
They should win. They should win, no doubt. They can
touble the Tigers. Yeah, Tim Kelly's back, Liam Ryan's back.
It's a few people saying why are they trying to win?
(02:52):
That's what happens in the AFL. That's footy I mean,
you know, I know you're going to play kids, but
how many more kids can they play? I reckon because
Petro Shelley's come back in and has caused the few
people to get their noses out of joint. But I
think they try to win this one. There'll be the
Derby next, so that'll be Derby sixty one. They could
actually upset the apple Cart.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I was just thinking, imagine if the dock has beat
the Pies then lose to the Eggles.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
You know what's interesting.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I did the press conference with Minnie McWalter, the coach,
and he was all the talks about Harley read and
lots of talk about Harley read all around Australia, around
footy about you know, is he overcooking?
Speaker 1 (03:31):
It?
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Is he undisciplined. He's a super competitor. What I do
know is that you can't put that into the young people.
So the great thing is that he's got this unbelievable
sense of competition and just wants to win all the time,
which is what you want in young players. You just
need a tailor at some times. And it sounds like
he's missing Yoey. Basically, he's basically missing our man Yoey.
(03:54):
He needs Batman, the boy Wonder Robin. He's never as
good without Batman, right, And this is what the you
had to say whether I think Yoe is really significant
for Harley.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
What Yoe did for Harley last year, we just haven't
had him this year.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Like Yo, He's an incredibly experienced contest beast. Takes a
bit of the pressure off Harley in that space for sure.
So we've missed JOEI.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yeah, Elliott, he's the steady hand of mentor.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah he is.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
You need someone to lean on when you're that young.
I saw Harley in the huddle sort of talking to
the team as a twenty year old. If a twenty
year old did that, when I was baying, I go, mate,
what are you doing? What are you talking about?
Speaker 4 (04:28):
You know?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
You just sit back and just follow us, you know.
But there's no one there, there's no leader. So Tim
Kelly's back, Liam Ryan, go the Eagles, is all I'm
saying now. I wanted to ask you this, mate. This
is classic. There's a bit of a blue going on
in the Australian cricket team because in the Third Test,
of course, they absolutely smashed the West Indies. They got
him out for twenty seven, right, Scottie Boland he got
(04:51):
a hat trick, right, and.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Mitchell Stark he took five. He did a Michelle fifer.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
You know, how do he call it a He called
it a right, they called it Michelle. You got a
Michelle of five wickets, so, which is an equivalent of
a century if you're batting.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
He also got his four hundredth wicket all time. So
who gets the ball?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Is that the bloke You've got the hat trick which
hasn't happened since like nineteen eleven or something in Jamaica,
or is it? Don't think they're going to have to
saw it enough. That's a pink ball too, the one
you exactly want the fever on fire, the Mighty Green
(05:32):
Machine Sunday rac Arena two pm, B there or B Square.
The Green Army will be roaring. It'll be fifteen thousand
and it's a major semi finalist show. They should storm
storm into the Super Netball Grand Final. I'm you know,
really they should bowl on from there. They should, They
(05:53):
should win it. I mean, you don't want to put
the mocker on them, but they've got such a squad.
Alice Tague Neild who's just been selected in the Australian
Diamond Squad. The Irang Sisters sunday A Yang a Yang, sorry,
sunday A Yang just amazing, the Cransburg Sisters jess Anstis,
Katie Ann Dahiney. And then there's the goat, Janil Fowler,
(06:14):
Yes Newbard. She's the goat of super super Netble pivotal
in the Premiership Push. She's the league's goalscorer best eighth
consecutive season. She's won the goal scoring and that's despite
missing the first two games. So she's absolute favorite acclaim
an unprecedented, unprecedented sixth super netbal MVP Award this year.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
She is the goat.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Let's turn someday into a fever frenzy.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
That's it. Beyond the news those highlights.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
So I can tell you at six o'clock the British
Open or they call it the Open. Now on overnight
I got up and watched a bit five leaders after
one round. It's being played in Northern Ireland. It's spectacular,
it's worth a look. World number one Scotti Scheffler. Now
he's looking one shot back, so he's my tip to win.
But hence his brutal honesty. This How good was this?
(07:03):
He made headlines earlier this week after delivering what could
only be described as a stunning existential monologue about golf
and how it's not a fulfilling life and it's not
something you know, it's not like curing cancer.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I have listened to. It is a little bit.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
I'm not here to inspire somebody else to be the
best player in the world, because what's the point. You know,
this is not a fulfilling life. It's it's fulfilling from
the sense of accomplishment, but it's not fulfilling from a
sense of like the deepest places of your heart. You know,
there's a lot of people that make it what they
thought was going to fulfill them in life, and then
you get there, and all of a sudden you get
to number one in the world, and then they're like,
what's the point?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Wow? What a powerful message. Even at the top, it's
okay to not feel Okay, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
It's winning tournaments is fantastic, but it ain't family, it
ain't curing cancer. It's just sport. It doesn't fulfill you.
You want to be Tiger Woods or Tiger Dad. You know, so,
and you know what I can relate to that I reckon.
I reckon, that's I had that attitude about footing it.
Totally agree. It's just like it's just a game. But anyway,
maybe I shouldn't have would have been a better player,
(08:05):
made a few more games, more flags.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Tour de France.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Mate, A lot of cyclists are following the tour. Half
of the western suburbs cyclists over there. That's unbelievable. But
the world's best now today, I think it's today pogachar right,
or Bagcha pagatcha. Then we go pagatcha. Today he unleashed
a vintage Assault overnight. He crushed everyone in the twelfth stage.
(08:30):
Everyone was gasping for air. It was unbelievable. We have
a look on the news tonight. Hiss climb was unbelievable.
But what I wanted to mention was, you know what
happened yesterday? The leading pack they decided he crashed Bagartia, right,
so he's he's the world's best.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
He crashed, fell over all the rest of it. And
what did the leading pack do?
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Instead of bolting off like you probably would like in
sport normally you just be ruthless, they sat back in
their saddles and sort of got off this, you know,
sat back, pulled and just waited for him to come back.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Respect and that's that respect. That's exactly what it is.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Class.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
That is very good. So I love that and what.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I love about the franc He tuned in for the racing,
but you stay for the scene. That French countryside absolutely
big in those hills as well.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
And just to shout out to Subiaco coach bo Wardman,
he stepped down in the waffle last night. Two time
premiership coach world do i'n bowie good Man used to
be an umpire too. He's the only bloke to umpire
a hundred games and also coach a couple of premierships
for subiac.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
So quite a unique achievement. Well done that man.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Always a pleasure and a big thanks for braving the
cold and raid over the past couple of weeks to
and go Eagles, Go Darkers.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
That's it. See Everyboddy
