Speaker 1 (00:00):
West Too Sport with Adrian Barrage. What what a weekend,
Barrah mate, you're on your pat malone. Ain't not even
anybody to make your cup of coffee. Got to do
it all me own. You are the macguy mcguiver of radio.
Well done, my friend. Good to be here with you,
Russen and help you out to keep your company.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
There are a few mcguivers out there, certainly for one
team on Saturday, weren't.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
They Brisbane lines? What about Locky Neil coming off the
bench having seventeen possessions fairy tales?
Speaker 2 (00:30):
It could have really and that goal the way he
celebrated after.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
It, he could have won the Norm Smith. For half
a game.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
It was a real slog in that first half, like
it was actually really ugly. Ye often can be, yeah
at the beginning when there's a lot of nerves and
there's no free flowing but the super.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Offensive Bailey couldn't kick a goal, but it was. It
was a close game for what almost three quarters and
just at the end of that third Charlie Charlie Cameron
went man he'd been out of form and ends up
kicking for could and won the medal. It was so
good you just get that feeling though, don't you.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I remember I had it when I was watching it
on Saturday. You just go they just because it had
been so close the whole way, and then there's just
this little buffer, and you go, is that the one
that's going to break this spirit?
Speaker 1 (01:16):
And boy did it break this spirit. The West Dozzy
boys were good too. Kalamarchie another one. He looks like
he's on the move as well, so Charlie Cameron Ford
Kalamarchie from Perths Well. Brandon Stacevich now wants to join
West Coast. But he did get knocked out in the game,
so but.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
They say it's not as bad as people think.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
I think he's missed twelve games this year. Yeah, concussion,
had four concussions in the last twelve months or so.
So I guess they can put triggers in the contract
with say you have to play X number of games
to get the six years. So I presume that's what
will happen. Fantastic young man. He's only about twenty six.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
He'd certainly bring some experience and some success to the club,
wouldn't he.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Like that's spirit, that dual leadership. Absolutely, the Lions will
get stronger too. That's the weird bit they got. I
think they've got ten players under twenty one. They've got
those bloody Ashcroft brothers. Yeah one's only eighteen. What were
you doing to eighteen? I know Abs certainly last year
they asked to come on to the ground of success.
Yeah on the ground, can I come on now? And
(02:18):
then this year he's kicking a great golf. It was unbelievable.
So they've got Oscar Allen going their way, which you know,
that's the sort of player they need in that forward
line to be even stronger. And Sam Draper from Essen
and say I reckon they could go for the old
three peat just like they did in was it one?
Two three?
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yeah, two thousand and one, two thousand and two, two
thousand and three, and then they just made the Grand
Final and four as well, but they just kind of
got tired legs had a fair team.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
What about Brisbane though, we've renamed it title Town basically
because the Broncos are also into the NRAL final both codes.
Brisbane's in the Grand Final. Imagine if Broncos beat the
Storm in the NRL, they'll be better and especially for
Melbourne people, they will really be unbearable. Mate Brisbane killing
(03:05):
it and they got the bloody Olympics in twenty thirty two.
It's all happening. So just some observations. Chris Scott got
his pants pulled down by Chris Fagan. I thought he
was better than that. I don't know, I don't know
what happened to him. He just bad team selection handled
Jeremy Cameron badly broke his arm and they sent him
back on.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah, they put it like a splinter, the moving that
you could see, and they tied it up even tired.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
They reckon out you go again. Would you ever not
know that a bloke had a broken arm? Mate and
he looked him he just he so looked out of sort.
He made that tackle and hurt himself again. Shannon Neil
Harris Andrews was just all over him. They just need
to do something there. Rayner coming off the square so
he really got tailed up. Chris Scott, Sorry, Scottie. Just
some other observations. Laugh of hon, I'd known that Fife,
(03:50):
I know, no Farewell that for the great man. Apparently
he's in India. Simon said, he's in India. Yeah, well
that's an that's a good reason about Tom. She's what
it's the story there. Yeah, well that's a good point.
Actually it was Dommy she maybe I heard.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
That he had actually flown over and then they didn't
put him on going about two hundred games. But they've
had other people go on before that happ't ad two
hundred games. And now he kicked one of the most
iconic goals in a Grand final of the last mate.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
I did not know about that. I'm going to check
that out because McGovern was out there and it Sonny
Walters he didn't go as well. You know more about
it than me, so don't don't know. Trust check it out,
very good man, give me some tips. Sonny Walters. His
daughter had a netball Grand final here. It was good
to see. Now it's the silly season. Of course, we've
(04:39):
got Geelong great Mitch Duncan. He turned up at mad
Monday in Geelong wearing Eagles gear in front of his
hint obviously coming here. He's not coming. It's pretty funny.
His assistant coach, he's the former East per player, Christian Petrarca.
You saw him. You see him sneaking into Adelaide. He's
(05:03):
being feted everywhere. Everybody wants him to come say on
the Gold Coast next with his wife Bella. I think
so he'll be leaving Melbourne. So it is. It is
the silly season. But well done to Brisbane. Fantastic when
back to back. I reckon they could go for three.
They just look, they just look super an Oscar Allen,
what a decision to go up there. It's probably great
(05:23):
time he might pinch the premiership. He's done all right. Yeah,
the co captains Europeans obviously beat the USA Team USA
and the Ryder Cup and.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Which is in golf for those who are yeah, they
follow the Ryder Club.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
They quite remarkable. There's a lot of singing going on
on the Europe's bus and some great songs as well,
and you'll get a laugh out of that. But it
gets played every two years Team USA versus Europe. Very prestigious.
Next next one is in Ireland, which will be incredible
given that a lot of the guys are from Ireland
(05:57):
and Northern Ireland. But it was like Aby Gilmour. The
Europeans actually saw it coming too because it was being
played in America, so in New York and even Trump
he turned up to try to give them a bit
of give them a lessons. It's a bit like that
North Korean dictator who shot you know, thirty one for
(06:18):
eighteen or something. So the and the Europeans they actually
saw it coming. They trained for the hostile environment. They
used virtual reality reality headsets to simulate the hostile New
York environment. So this isn't the lead up to so
you know, getting abused and yelled out and called names
(06:38):
and all that sort of stuff on your headphones. And
Rory McElroy confirmed the players they were subjected to simulated
abuse to desensitize themselves, and the bloody worked because the
crowd was unbelievable. The abuse was so bad. There were
fat jokes going around for Shane Lowry, who ended up
winning the match for the Europeans in the end, or
(06:59):
getting them to tie and them regaining the title. Rory
got called the F word, like the the F word
that happens in footy, a bid and his vilification, that's
that sort of thing to his face. His wife was
targeted and someone threw a beer at her. So I
heard that and I found myself barracking for europe just just.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
So they came out of them. I mean, well it
worked for the Europeans. But it didn't work for the
Americans taking that it was very ungolf like too. Even
the MC, her name was Heather McMahon. She led the
FREEO chant F you Rory.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
She was on the MC. She was the MC, the
official MC. She got the sack. Golf Golf's turn. Golf
used to be a gentleman's ladies game as well. Watching
Happy Gilmo too much, it was unbelievable. So she's an
American actress and comedian and she's probably doesn't know about
golf etiquette. But anyway, she got the sack halfway through,
so the Europeans had the last laugh. Rory copped heaps
(07:58):
of abuse and was at once his vision of him.
He's about to hit his shot and they're sort of
bagging him and yelling out you know, supposed to be
quiet when they hit, and he stops and goes up
and says, shut the f up to this guy. Right,
it's on camera. Then he goes back to his ball
and hits it within two feet of the hole, you know,
like it just had the absolute last laugh and just
(08:19):
said have a look at that, mate.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
So this sounds more like the kind of golf games
that you and I are involved in rather than I was.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
I always like to say, do you breathe in your
in or out on your backswing? It makes you makes
you concentrate on that and the butcher.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Usually with us it's just clubs go flying out into
the bush somewhere, a few.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Curse words, you know. I saw a blake throw his
golf bag. Just remembered old burst would that the burs
would guess they used to have a lake there. I
saw a guy throw his entire bag into the water
and I thought that this is unbelievable. And then he
comes so he storms off. Then he comes back and
he goes into the water to get his bag. I'm
thinking he's getting his clubs, who's getting his car keys?
(09:03):
His car keys already bag. I just wanted to get.
I want to get out of here. So the songs
on the team bus were quite remarkable. That the vision's
gone around the world brilliant. The first the first song
they've been singing is Freed from Design. It's Europe. Some
fire USA is terrified in Europe. Some fire that will
google that that is incredible. And then they went to
(09:25):
the Cranberrieze the zombie song. Well, I will just play
it for people don't understand. Here we go. So the
(09:45):
American tactic didn't work. So that's the Europeans on the bus,
the tactual team singing right, and Rory is sitting there,
Rory McElroy. He's holding the Rider's cup in his hand
and he's leaning back, going ry. He's the best pictures.
You just got to have a look. Fantastic, but probably
(10:06):
not the way we want golf to be played, not
in Australia and entertaining though for casual observer, way for
Ireland in two years time. Now, let's just quickly mention
the Wildcats. They had a good win in New Zealand.
They do it much much needed. And guess who the
hero was The coach's son. Hey, Jarony Stunning late came cameo,
(10:26):
sirenly said, came here, cameo first ever MBL game. He
comes on and goes bang and so everyone's going, well,
good decision, John, getting your son to play for us.
But then across the country, Bryce Rott, Bryce Rotten, that's
not bad. That might stick. That's Friday and slip when
he comes and then now that he's playing for the
thirty six ers, he's coming here in December seven, Bryce Rotten,
(10:49):
I'm going to use that over the shoulder when I
do the news, Bryce Rotten, I'm writting it down. That's good.
He he killed him. He had thirty nine points in
his first day of a game. For the other thirty
six is on taboo, the biggest best aboo ever by
anyone in the MBO at any club, and the thirty
sixers are now adjusting that. You know, Bryce, it's his program.
(11:12):
This is not a corporate partnership. He's the owner. Everyone
else is an employee. And they got to get used
to it. Now. That was the hard thing with Bryce.
He runs a shape, right, and I think that's part
of the reason that the Wildcat's going This is getting
all too hard. But now maybe they're regretting it. Yep.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Well, Adelaide will have to come to terms with that,
and I'm sure they'll find a way.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yeah. December seven, get to rc Arena read Brian Rotten.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
All right, Bryce Rotten, neighbor, he's gone, He's gone to us,
He's gone.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
All right, we'll see tomorrow, Yes, all right,
