Speaker 1 (00:01):
Time to toll the sport with and I.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Him I put my tree last night. Did you listening?
Speaker 3 (00:10):
It's beautiful.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
You don't have pets too.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
I do have pets.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Okay, dogs.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
As damaging to your tree as cats. Cats like.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
No, they weren't really interested in I thought they might
get in the festive spirit. Try to get a photo
with the dog in front of the tree.
Speaker 5 (00:27):
They got their reindeer antlers on their Well, that's they're.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Waiting for that. Yeah, I know you're not doing it
without a costume.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
It's harder to get a photo of that than like
a child, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
I actually put shmackos in the tree.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Didn't work. Be careful what you wish for.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
There might be some shmackos from last year.
Speaker 5 (00:45):
If you put one there that will be looking at
looking for it every day, you will come home to
a collapse.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I know I might avoid that again.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Okay, Well, the West Coast, you got a couple of
smackos we leading the club.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Oscarllen and Liam Dugan have been announced as co captains
for twenty twenty four, so they're replacing retired skipper Luke Shouey.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Former skipper Luke Shouey.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
So it's a twenty two year first the West Coast
of appointed joint captains. It's just the second time the
Eagles thirty seven year history. So the last pair was
Ben Cousins and Dean Kemp in two thousand and one.
So Adam Simpson said they just basically couldn't split the
two of them, so they've given it to both.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I think it's a really good idea. They're really great
people and I think it will be.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
They're such a young team that you know, to have
young captains as well, because Oscar's only twenty four, Dugan's
twenty six.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
I don't like it. You don't like it now.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
I think a team should have a captain and a
vice captain and be done with it. And the person
who is the captain is the person who is best
at ging up the team.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Yeah, so you think they should have separated the pair
by Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
I had to look at these teams that have leadership
like they have captains. It's not a captain.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Almost a leadership to be done. So he's a leadership
group tionalists. Tommy Barr still vice.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Captain, Jeremy mcgovernors stepped away, stepped down, so not away yet.
Can you imagine that he's just stepped down. Okay, yeah,
so we'll see how that goes.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Interesting.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
I didn't think that announced it so early, but they
probably just don't want any rumors or anything to start,
so they're just squashing it now.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
The draftees hit the track for the first time this week.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Yeah, so they started training change. They are still intact luckily. Yes,
there was a bit of a scare yesterday that Harley
Reid might have done a hamstring but they've said it's
hamstring awareness, so it's back the terms already. It's only December,
so he's all good. But they were doing lighter drills.
(02:50):
They do a lot of running. They don't join the
big boys yet, they just get their bodies sort of
used to it.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
So he's living with a new captain with one of them.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Oscar Harvey Johnston. The other draft is living with Dugo
and Clay Hall. The other draft is living with Dom Sheet. Okay, ye,
so they're all sort of with leaders of the club.
Just I wanted to mention Jake Waterman. He won the
time trial on Monday, so he's recovered from that stomach
condition that he had at the end of last year.
(03:18):
A lot of people are saying, Wow, that really reflects
on the club poorly, Like you know, someone that was
unwell won it. And I just think it's the complete opposite.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
I think he.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
Yeah, I can't take a trick, can they Literally they
can't do anything right. But to me, it's how hard
he's worked. He's looking really good on the track. Just
give the guy some credit. Yeah, great comeback. So and
saw that awareness, Yeah, exactly. Well there's a bit going
down there too, wasn't there. Yeah, you know, family and
all the rest. But no, it's good to see and
(03:48):
new docker Jeremy Sharp he also hit the track on Monday,
so he has signed a two year deal with Frio.
He played twenty three games in four years at the
Gold Coast, but they brought him Peter Bowl to do
the time truck. I saw that, and he kept up
with Peter Bowl. I mean, I don't think Bowl was
going a million, No, I don't think he was. But
(04:10):
still I couldn't even keep up with Peter Bowl going
ten percent of his fastest. So it was still impressive
to see. But I don't think we're going to see
Sharper at the Olympics.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Okay, and he's pretty sharp to like Maddie the Boor
when he was at the club, the girls and we're
going crazy and some boys too, imagine.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
So he's hoping for that wing position left vacant by
Liam Henry.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
We're talking sport with Anna Hay and a very smooth
gentleman who has been signed by the Doggers, yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Brandon Walker.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
So he's committed to a long term deal which will
see him at the club until at least the end
of twenty twenty seven, and there's a chance a deal
could extend to twenty twenty eight with the trigger. So
the small defender, he's been a key cog really in
their back line. And it's important, I guess because this
is part of a huge amount of youngsters that have
(04:55):
signed to at least the end of twenty twenty six.
So Swikowsk, Dicks, Swatson, so Wrong, Chapman, Cox, Tracy, Frederick, Amos, Jackson.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
That's just a few.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
I haven't even listed all of them that have signed
until at least the end of twenty twenty six. So
Freo are building a young core group that will hopefully
lead them to a premiership.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Walker coming back from very serious injury.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Yeah, he's got a bit of freehab to do, but
hopefully he'll be back on the track.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Scorch Hers season's over. It is.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
That's it for the scorch Hers, so it was really disappointing.
They lost to the Brisbane Heat in the Challenger Final
at the Whacker on Wednesday night. Given it was at
the whackra I really hoped that they would get it
done but they lost by well, the Heat won by
sixty seven runs. They now face the Strikers in the
decider on Saturday night in Adelaide, so it'll be Heat v.
Strikers Grand Final. But don't worry, there's big Bash still
(05:47):
to come. The men's season kicks off on Sunday, December
tenth against the Renegades in Geelong, so there's plenty more
to come.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
The Scorches women's season was the opposite of the men's
World Cup to.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Yeah, it was competing, Yeah exactly, it absolutely.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Couple of wen Nelli upon the first Test shouldn't be
surprised as the first to decend that Cameron Green is
giving selectors plenty to think about.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
So he produced a brilliant knock in the Sheffield Shield
yesterday against Queensland, so it's his first Shield game in
two years. He made ninety six really good effort there.
Hilton Cartwright made one hundred and thirty two. Wa lead
by fifty six runs at stumps on day three, but
it was washed out pretty much on Monday, so.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Expect it to be a draw.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
But the first Test is in Perth of course, against
Pakistan fourteenth of December. Officials are expecting around twenty thousand
fans on the opening day.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
So it's a few but they would have liked a
lot more.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
I'm assining usually around they like around thirty thousand, so
but who knows.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Still two weeks to go.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Have you seen Cameron Green's bat like it must be huge?
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I know, yeah, good on him. Hopefully he gets selected there.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Okay, what about the Cats?
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Yes, so they're taking on the Sydney Kings at RS
Arena tonight six thirty.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
So they've won their last five games.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Hopefully they can do it again because they turn their
season around.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
We're worried at the start.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Okay, and are you ready for the weekend? I am
Alice in Wonderland.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Yes, it's Energy Christmas Pageant tomorrow night.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
I can't believe it's already here.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
So it starts at seven point thirty pm and it's
a long Saint George's Terrace. If you can't go though,
you can watch it on Channel seven on Thursday, the
seventh of December at seven pm on Channel seven and
seventh plus.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
So yeah, I'll be in.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
What a beautiful day for it. It is.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
It's perfect.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
Get down there, twenty seven degrees tomorrow. And I love
that it's in the evening again. I always liked it
better in the evening than.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
The gets a bit hot drinking day. And I love
the light, the lines, and it's such a great atmosphere.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
I still have the blue on a line so the
kids don't go over that line. You know, there is
something like that.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
There is a line used to.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Be a line. When my kids not to step.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Out of it.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
They all have chalk and they.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Called a pair of ANTICI stopped you going over the line.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Down there, but not every parent. There's there's a line
painting on the ground.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I went some adults in my.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Line.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
You've got a background. We're flying.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
But it's really good. So Alice in Wonderland. I haven't
been here before.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
For hours, anything anything as long as you're not Ann Ballompa,
you're all good, which is not Christmas.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Thank you, Anna see you next week.
