Speaker 1 (00:01):
Time for Barry's bits.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Good morning, Yes, yes, welcome or not welcome? Hello you guys,
you're welcoming me. Your big weekend and maybe maybe the
story of the weekend, massive, massive weekend for Oscar. Drama, tension,
people screaming, timing all over the place. Yes, Oscar Allen
(00:25):
got married at Government House up the road.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Here he did. He went along.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
A lot of the Eagles people went along and dom
she looked Shoey Harley read, Jake Waterman, Jeremy McGovern. I
didn't know you could get married to Government House. Actually
it looked quite nicely and bacon that was there.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
If you're an Eagle, you can just about doing anything. Yeah. No,
the story isn't he going over east?
Speaker 3 (00:46):
She shouldn't be allowed to get married to goverment exactly.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
But after what he did to us, bloody left us out. Yeah,
get married on the beach.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
No, the story of the day obviously, Oscar Piastre Orlando
Norris being dudded by their team.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
McLaren wrong with these idiots.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Mclarence admitted they made a huge blur of apologizers that
the catar Grand Prix you might have heard on the news.
Poor decision costs. It actually costs Oscar to win. He
drove the best, unbelieved they made no mistake.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
It was amazing that he was able to come back
and get second.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Yeah, it still came second.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Actually, I have some audio from within the McLaren pitt
during the safety car period. That was their decision making
process going on. While everyone was out coming in getting
their car sort it out.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
I must have thought.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
What everyone else came in? Yeah, after the safety car,
everybody else came in. But the thing that summed it
up for me, and I think we got this audio
Oscar's reaction. So on the team radio, they always congratulate
them when they crossed the line and they say, you've
got across the checkered flag?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Is it well done?
Speaker 2 (01:56):
And you can just imagine the team I was thinking,
oh my god, A balls this up.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I've got to get on there and congratulate him.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
And he's come second. He should have come first. Jeepers,
how's it going to go? Well, turn up your radio,
just listen and just read between the lines as to
how poor old Oscar is feeling.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
The checker plague.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Oscar checker plag was incredible, speechless.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Speech.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
I want him down because he's you know, he's done.
He's done his best to keep a little it. Russell
has a theory, though.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Speak speechless until I get back to the pit, and
a lot from him.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Russell has a theory that they must not have been
ready in the pits because I did.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
They didn't have much time to make the decision.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
Yes, but every other team did just what you do.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Well, they were behind him. That was brilliant from Oscar.
Don't talk to me, you're incompetent, numpty. I'll speak to
you later. So the poor strategy call basically was about
and it actually helped Max win. So Max, who's been
on a hundred points behind, he's now in second spot,
only twelve points behind Lando, and Oscar's sixteen points back.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I don't know if he can win. They're going to
Abu Dhabi.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Anything is possible.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
But I don't trust McLaren no. Well, but I'll.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Make sure that he doesn't and that Lando does.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
And in some ways you're right. Lando got killed in
the crossfire here because they probably panic going We're.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Gonna have to talk to both the boys. What do
we do? Do we pit? What if one doesn't want
to pit? And all that sort of stuff. We're going
to have a team.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
You know, everybody pits in a safety car. That's why
everybody else did.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
And Max just went and then they had to catch him.
So it was disastrous. So that's where it's at. The
big thing this week, of course, is the Second Ashes Test.
It starts Thursday at the Gabatoire as we call it
because we have never.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Heard it court Oh I have, but most mostly from
this bloke.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Yes, says it to me. Jeep as well.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
We never get beaten up there but usman Uzi khwaja
are you listening mate please? He definitely hasn't read Dale
Cardinigie's book How to Win Friends.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
And Influence.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
A tradesman never blames his tool.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
After playing golf at Lake carrying up three times in
one week before the West Test, then he's turning thirty nine,
he's had back spasms after that, he couldn't contribute to
the team.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
And instead of keV and his mouth shut, he s
just shut up.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
He and slams our beloved opter stadium saying the first saying,
the first day pitch you ready for it? The first
day pitch was a piece of s h one t.
He's gone on the record and said only one. He
said that he sledged our pitch. Was he might be
time to retirement?
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Is he talking about.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
He?
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Exactly? He was out there for six balls. How would
he know?
Speaker 3 (04:51):
He got too much sunn out there at lake carrying
up in those three eighteen holes of golf or whatever.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Every day he's turned in a grumpy old man three
rounds of goal, pulled your back, trash the pitch, uzzie
you listener, mate, we love you, but just retired.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Gracefully leave the young bloke's mate. It's enough, go gracefully.
We're still on.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
And there was a brilliant daboo on the weekend for
the two hundred and eleven centimeter Chinese Superstar, and you
made her daboo for the Perth Links. It was just
like it was like seeing a different being playing against
normal human beings. It was quite It was quite remarkable
at two eleven, you know, so six eleven that's good,
(05:36):
maybe seven on outside twenty two points dominated a big win.
They look like they needed a step ladder. The opposition,
it was totally was brilliant. She's going to draw massive
crowds in Perth. I reckon when she starts playing here.
They were telling me that to just have a custom
made bed, obviously, because beds aren't seven custom made everything
doorways and yeah, but at the moment she's sleeping diagonally
(05:58):
across a king sized bed.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
It would be hard to do, wouldn't it.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
I did that last night?
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Is that when the dog comes You didn't lose it
all up?
Speaker 2 (06:09):
No?
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I did because there was a dog right on the pillar.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That's right, those bloody dogs. And Frankie is the worst mate.
Snuggles in again. I'm mean hanging off.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
The edge anyway, bed talk later on congratulate it's gone
off my bed talk. I can tell you a pillow talk.

one crown again taking back to back hockey one crown,
so beat Melbourne for too so don to the girls

it's close. It's called the murk. The mining emergency rescue
competition was out here on Langley Park all weekend.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
The best mining emergency teams competing and not doing it.
Thank god, it's not today I've got to pull on
the hazmat sets and set file to stuff and stuff
like that. You would have seen it on the news.

These young crew came through from Regis Resources, a gold
mining company, caused a bit of an upset and they
