Speaker 1 (00:01):
Signed it to All Sport with Adrian Barrage Russ. Good
to be here mate and enjoying time with you on
this warm day. It's going to be a warm.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Couple of days. Well look at it a couple I listen.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
I don't normally talk about English soccer, but we're just
off the top. I will because this morning I watched
an amazing, super intense game between Tottenham Hotspurs and Manchester United.
The match, it was unbelievable, so ange Poster Conglu's team.
There were three kneel up and then suddenly after two
diabolical goalkeeping errors. I mean, you've just got to go

(00:35):
back now. Look catch the news tonight, look it up,
Google it. They nearly blew it and just had to
hold on. And it took Tottenham South Korean star Son
Young min to score directly from a corner.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
Yeah, he scored directly from a corner.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
This is why these guys like Ae get paid so
much money to have to sit through that.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
I know.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
So they won four to three in the end and
advanced to the League Cup semi finals. But you're exactly right,
because An said I don't know if it was after
the match or not, but he said he's under more
pressure than the Prime Minister of Australia. Well because heading
into an election, that's maybe yeah, I would certainly say comparable.
But his theory was, look, they have elections every couple

(01:21):
of years. I have an election every week. He's got
a good point, coach, and the constituents are a little
don't they turn on you? Income your two seconds flat,
You're you're on the outer now cricket wise, the Third Test,
I know we spoke about.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
It Monday, but it was going to be a draw.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
The weather in Brisbane beautiful, beautiful.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Beautiful one day, pissing.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Down the next you alowed to say that, yeah, one
double fiv down the next Yeah, what a strange change joint.
A draw as he's denyed to win by India probably
sums it up. We almost got it. We almost pinched it,
even with all the rain delays. So but the weird
thing is we now head to boxing day at the
m Slee g and it could have been three nil.

(02:09):
It should have been three nil. You know, we were
planning our three favorite grounds, Optus Adelaide and the Gabba,
that's where we go.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Well just went so badly though. That was oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
And so now we're off to the MCG and the
SCG to see who can win the series. And India
won there before, so it's kind of up in the
up for grabs. What's the long range forecast from helping
what I'll be looking intently at that. Apparently ninety thousand
on Boxing day two, so people will been pretty upset.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
If it's raining.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Yeah exactly, let'sould just play them all here at Optus.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Nice to I heard in your news. Nice to hear.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
The Dean Jones Trophy has been introduced to the One
Day Cup, the domestic One Day Couple. We renamed the
Dean Jones Cup after the great man. It passed recently.
Now in footy news, the big news was that docer
Hayden young. He's one of our blocks, isn't he? He
certainly is.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Now the AFL is long youngest contracted player he signed
beyond the Brisbane Olympics.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
That's amazing.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Twenty thirty three added six years to his deal. He's
now a multi millionaire. And the way they did it
was they had all the will still coming in shorts
and T shirts.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
You'll never know.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
Sure is good, good young Victorian bloke But the way
they did it. They got all the players, the Dockers
players in a theater red and they said, oh, we've
got a big announcement to make, and here's a bloke
who's going to announce it, and up bobbed Peter young
So Youngie's dad back in Victoria. He's doing some chain sawing.
And this is how he announced it to the dock

(03:38):
is what had just happened.

Speaker 4 (03:50):
Oh, get everybody, hard work, that's what we are now.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
How to do hay, He's got us over here, do
a little.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Tad gardening preper things up. Now, you guys got a
really big session today. I hope you have a good
go on the track. I hope you can put up
with the youngster a little bit longer because Frio's signed
on Hayden till twenty thirty three.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Get around, luys all love is all nice work, Dad,
We go with the Jeff Fennick to love you.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
Mad.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
I'd be celebrating, sorry, Dad, Imagine it's not coming home
Igine having a contract at twenty thirty three. It's amazing,
isn't it unbelievable? And I believe Andy Brayshaw either today
or Monday or imminent anyway, ready to go, ready, ready
to sign up for a long time as well. So
they got their two prime midfielders. A weird one for you,
star Docer recruit Shape Bolton. His first game since joining

(04:46):
FRIO will be against Freo.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
So how does that work?

Speaker 2 (04:53):
So explained to.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
Us, he's heading up the Indigenous All Stars. Think its
February fifteen at Opti the stadium, and so he'll be
playing against Freemantle. His first game will play against his
new teammates. So I'll be alex peers. Think he'll have
to back off a little just g you don't want
to John, I don't want to say you wouldn't want
to put Hayden out for a season. I played a

(05:15):
bit on the half back flank as well. Have listened
to if you're a defender Docors defender you've got who
shall I say?

Speaker 2 (05:21):
You've got?

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Shay Bolton, Charlie Cameron, Calamarchie, Liam Ryan, Bobby Hill, Cousey Pickett.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
We'll standing on your head. You'll be looking at where
is it? Where are they? You know?

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I could be just it should be, it should be
really good. So feb fifteen and off the stadium. Bobby
Brad Hill's playing Sonny Walters the Indigenous All Stars versus FREEO.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Get you.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
I think the tickets are on sale, now get in
for an early hit out. More good news for the Glory.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, well we're good news in terms of I really want.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
To said sarcastic.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
I want to throw my support behind the Perth Glory
and their fans because we talked about tough time. They
suffered that four Neil home defeat last week weekend, which
was a shocker, and they will equal a competition record
of nineteen straight winless games if they failed to do
the job against Brizzy tomorrow. So I just say, come on, boys,
too deep, you can do this.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
That's not one they want.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
You don't want to take that. You don't want to
have that in the record books. Actually I had an idea, Russ.
I was thinking the Glory should make a phone call
to the Deputy Premier Rita Safiotti.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
And why would that be? You know why?

Speaker 1 (06:26):
What's because I've found out she might be able to
give them some advice or even inspiration. Because I believe
that she is a bit of a super coach, you know,
in her spare one moment, because she basically runs a state.
She's on fire at the moment in her debut season
as the coach of her daughter's under thirteen team, Lucia's

(06:48):
team right or the Smurfs. The Smurfs last year won
two games PERF. Smurfs this year undefeated nine straight games.
By the deputy Premier leading the way. You might have
a word in our ear read what what a regume's building?

Speaker 3 (07:06):
What's your training regime?

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Adding super coach?

Speaker 1 (07:10):
Do it as well your ground. If you see reader
at the Perth Glory, you know what's going on. Just
parting on some tips. Another great person Marcus Rashford. I
wanted to mention him too. He's a Manchester United star.
This week he went back to his old primary school
in Manchester called Button Lane apparently you know sort of
you know, not middle class but lower middle class.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
I think some kids struggling.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
And he went there and he handed out Christmas presents
that he had bought, and he handed him out to
four hundred and twenty kids. He put four hundred and
twenty presents and he still had a lot of change.
He got the money from back down in the back
of his couch or.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
Look exactly got a found in the center console.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
Well that's good, that's I mean, that's got to do
when you're a multi millionaire and it shows the kids
there this can happen to you. Yeah, well that's right.
If you can kick a ball, who knows what could happen. Absolutely,
And I just wanted to finish with histories about to
repeat itself at the Australian Open, and I reckon, I reckon,
this is good. They had this wild card opportunities, So

(08:17):
what they do is at the Australian Open they sort
of give them to people.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
That create some interest.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
And for example, Bernard Tomic is coming back.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Remember Bernie, he's still speaking and all that.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yeah, yeah, he sold a few of them just too.
He's gone missing thirty two now, so he's making a comeback.
But the big one is cruz Hewitt.

Speaker 4 (08:39):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
So Leighton Sun into general intergenerational success.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
We're looking for not much pressure on him. No dad
was you know, world number one Wimbledon, one of Australia's
greatest players. But he's sixteen, so he's going to to
be with the Australian Open as a sixteen year old
son of Leyton and Beck and his first ever atp
of event. I think his old man's first game was
when he was fifteen.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
So yes, in.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Adelaide, he upset. Oh good mate, remember yeah, he was
like I can see it too, like up in your
number one. It's a bit taller than his's old man too,
So really looking forward to that. So and we just
wanted to send me best wishes for the Scorches too.
I think I think they're going to win the big
the BBL this year. Yeah, they're going to go again
last week and Hobart tomorrow. Yeah, that's right, and they're

(09:29):
back here for Boxing day. Yes, forty five thousand on
tipping top to thirty that they got last week, the
Orange Thnami and good news about Lance Morris so who
we spoke to a couple of days ago signing up.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Yeah, away the coin, the wild thing. You're a wild thing.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
I'll see him maybe, actually barely, I'm barely even a
mild thing, that red beard.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
Mate, Barrow. When are we going to catch you next, mate?

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Monday? We're going to come in Monday. Yeah, bloody earth,
good on you give you.

Speaker 3 (09:59):
She's still happening, so so why not why not come
in andtols.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
The world mate? Everything else's shadows.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
Everything else closes down, but not the sport and not
