Speaker 1 (00:01):
Time for barriers bits.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
When you've got to get work, you've got to get
into work Clobber. Their eight trade stores are everywhere, so
when you need it you can get it or check
out work clobber dot com dot au.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Great to be here.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
After this, I'm going to a press conference at the
whacker Head of the Sheffield Shields starting and it's only
it's less than fifty days to the Ashes. So just
when I thought, oh I can settle down and relax
a bit data, Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
And then there's the silly season in the footy, isn't there.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Like the trade period is it's on.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
I know, and it's it's such change now.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Culturally it's changed in the last couple of years where
players are being a lot more upfront about leaving, wanting
to leave their club and going and visiting other clubs.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Sometimes seen in airports.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Yeah, sometimes when they've still got four or five years
left in that contract.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Exactly Petraka four years.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
So last night at Brisbane's Best and Fairest on the
Gold Coast, the Premiers, the coach Chris Fagan gets up
there and he announces yep to West does he's leaving
dual Premiership players. They're leaving the club. We love them,
but they want to go. Brandon Starsovich wants to go
to the West Coast Eagles and Kalamarchie he thought about
(01:11):
going back home to w a but he's going to Adelaide, so.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
He reckons they might be a bit closer to a
premiership than Yeah, well and the crew over here.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Yeah that could be it. But mate, if you want
to win a premiership, you just start Brisbane.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Leave. They're going to win three in a row almost
certainly with Oscar.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Allen and Sam Draper gone up there and those kids
have got them. Adrian Fletcher who played for the Dockers,
his son's a gun and those bloody Ashcroft blokes and
made they're going gang bustard. So anyway, he's a bit
of Chris Fagan farewelling Brandon Starsovich and Kalamarchi.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Cal Archie and Brandon Stars. So it will be taking
their option to move on to other clubs for next year.
We all understand why that's happening. We're just incredibly grateful
for what they've done for our club. It's part and
parcel of the business. We'll love you tonight, we'll hate
you next year. But I can't thank those guys enough
(02:06):
for the contributions made. Both fellows are real team players.
They play roles for us.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
So starts if it's going to the West Coast Eagles.
What's what's the deal with the concussion concerns around him,
because you know that's that's a pretty big thing to
be taking on. Is he clear of it?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Well, the Eagles have had four players retire basically because
of concussion, including obviously McGovern and Venables who's a premiership
player and you know, huge names at the.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Club, Brad Shepard. But the Eagles will do their due diligence.
I love that were the due diligence covers everything.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
We're having a close look and in his contract there'll
be triggered so after two years you'll have to have
played X number of games.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
To get the extra four because he'll be getting a
six year deal.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
So I think I feel confident that Dom Pike in
this situation knows what he's doing. Darren Glass's nephew, Devon Robertson,
also plays at Brisbane. Fagan also announced that he's leaving
and probably going to the West Coast.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Eagles, so they want to come over here.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
Mate.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
They want to rebuild the club, make it return to
its greatness.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
They see the upside over here. The only way is up.
The Eagles are cashed up. Yes, there you go.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
I think you've two us.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Cashed up, and sooner or later they're going to be
on the way up.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
I think that Patrick cash is what it's about. And
this morning speaking of that, well not really about cash
this but Christian Petrarca basically has said he wants to
go to the Gold Coast Sons. So Petrarca moves to
the Suns. That What really worries me about that is
that all the teams around Fremantle and so Freemantle competing
(03:46):
for a top four spot with all these all these
teams like the Sons and Co, they're all adding players.
So the Sons are going, you know, we've got Petrarca.
Now we might get the bulldog that you know has
been on the outer as well, Geelong it chasing Charlie Kurno.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
That looks like they're going to get James Warple.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
From Hawthorne Brisbane, adding Oscar Allen and Sam Draper and
you've just seen them gapping FREEO. I just hope Frio
know what they're doing, and they're very young and they'll
get a lot of growth out of their young players.
But I wouldn't mind him seeing adding some good players,
you know, our player or two, just to match what's
going on elsewhere.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Is that Is that a case of Petrarca also seeing
that he thinks the Sons are on the rise pardon
the pun, Yes, ahead of melbournehead of Melbourne, and you know,
and Freo as well, not really sort of in the picture.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
And Clayton Oliver is on the way out at Melbourne
as well.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
He's been told he's on the way out and he
had a few choice words at the airport.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
On Mitch Cleary from Channel Simmons gave him the F
and C as well.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
I thought was a bit ra stalking people. This is
only stalking you a lot of things on the way
out to man.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
The bounce is gone.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I'm I'm I'm not happy about that. I reckon the
unbounce down at twelve thirty. Now it's a throw up
at twelve thirty. That doesn't sound right, makes you throw up?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Yeah, the umpires too stressed getting you know, it's too anxious,
it's too hard, you know, to focus in on that.
And you know what happened is when they did the
bounce and the club's all complained if it went sideways
and someone got it easily, so they made them rebounce
it didn't rebounce the ball and just said play on
the arms would be sweet. But because they have to
go back and highlight that they made a mistake.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
But we've been putting up this what one hundred and
thirty years.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I know that's one hundred and thirty. That's a fabric
of the game. It's this oval shaped ball. I don't
know where it's going to go. Your years of soccer ball.
How about we just threw up as soccer.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Boys running after the ball, heading into the heading into
the goals, and then the ball bounce is the wrong way.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Bring it back, yeah, bring it back, yeah, step Stephen
Milon would love to have a proper bounce. It didn't flag.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Yeah, I'm not happy.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
I'm not with it either, I reckon.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
It's just, you know, sanitizing the game we don't need.
And you know what it is, it's coaches. They are
half back flankers. Coaches, they really are, because all they
care about is just having their system and being able
to play the way. They wanted no disruptions. They don't
care about the game.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
They're taking the fun of the They.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Want to wake out of the game.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Yeah, and they have to win. They don't care about
the fabric of the game. Anyway, that's my rant for
whatever date it is Friday. The other thing on the
way out is Mad Monday. So I reckon at almost
every club now it's gone. I think Geelong was sort
of holding on.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I saw what Mitch Johnson's article in the West about that, Yeah,
just saying that, see.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
That boys be boys.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Yeah, in a private situation, well, Bailey Smith posted a
photo himself with Patrick Dangerfield, both dressed as cowboys, and
then he referenced broke Back Mountain.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
So that went down like a lead balloon.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
And he also Max Holmes at the Geelong Mad Monday
dressed as Caroline Wilson, an AFL journalist, and he posted
ever looked better And but he'd done the same thing.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
To mail journos the previous two years. Yeah, but it's
different when you do it.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
You know, that's they really need to go and hire
a remote property to with no leave, you leave you phones.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
It's the medium.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Media television.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
But hang on the boys do post things, don't they.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
You know, That's that's what and that's why I say
go somewhere remote and everybody has to put their phones
into a box. Yeah the front gate, I.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Don't have your fun I like it.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
No no evidence.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
So the club Gelong later apologized and they're banning men
Mad Monday in its current form. And I just quickly
mentioned the afl W Dockers last night got beaten by
Hawthorn fifteen points in Frankston, near fatal blow to their
season early in terms of the finals, I'll go out
with the question, what's the first question during a Frankston
quiz night?
Speaker 1 (07:53):
What are you looking at?
Speaker 3 (07:56):
But we're still kicking into a lot of stuff happening
in Western Australia, like tomorrow night or was sort of
five forty five at Opter Stadium. There'll be I reckon
almost sixty thousand, probably sixty thousand, may even break the
ground record for the Bledisloe Cup, fullhouse Australia versus New Zealand,
the Wallabies versus the All Blacks. And I've discovered and
it's it's fantastic. There's an All Black who grew up
(08:19):
in Narrigen then lived in Cannington went to Aaronmore College,
which is a great rugby school here, played rugby for Kalamunda.
He refers to himself as Mozzy, which is slang for
moldy ossy. So a Kiwi with Australian heritage, how do
you get moldy Mozzy out of moldy ossy Mozzy moldy ossy.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
So I wouldn't be calling him that because he's one
hundred and forty kilos and one ninety six centimeters toour
Oh he's a.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
Monsters, just a little lad, isn't he. He's a forward
for the All Blacks now because he moved back to
New Zealand when he was sixteen.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
His name's to Marty Williams.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
And no one pushes in front of him at the bar.
Let me tell you right now.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
You can't get around him one hundred and forty k
It's frightening. It is frightening. So the Aussies at the Wallabies,
that's the thing that blows me away. I remember meeting
the spring Box and there was such big humans, massive humans,
you know, and you think.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
How does the Wallabies beat these guys? But they did?
Speaker 3 (09:22):
You know, Bucky is both and Oz Durant. They had
heads like lions, you know, the biggest BLUs have ever
seen and the Aussie still beat him. So that's tomorrow
night in but it's going to be enormous. And then
on Saturday as well. Tomorrow as well, the Sheffield Shield starts.
And normally we wouldn't mention a lot about Sheffield Ship okay,
(09:43):
but this one. There are four matches in the lead
up to the first Ashes Test in Perth, which is
under fifty days away. It's a batting competition basically, it's
a bat off.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Yep. I think that's the right.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
You said it. We'll see, yeah, so that we can
see who's going to take to the crease when the
Ashes happened.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
He's course the most runs in this in the Sheffield Shield.
Those four matches will be a chance to play for Australia.
Might open for Australia manas Greenie Bancroft.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Well.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I saw Justin Langer complaining that there's been too many
changes in the opening lineup.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
He wants to settle it down.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Harris Marcus Harris Uhsman's got to perform, Sam Constance. So
New South w is playing New South Wales at the
whack of this weekend. Cam Green does he bat at
three for WA like he does for Australia or fourth
and for w A not like he bats for Australia.
Nathan Lyons the captain New South Wales, Sam Constance is playing.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
So the Sheffield Shield never been bigger. It's going to
be enormous as well consequential. And then there was a
monster crowd last night at rac Arena. Did you see
that they was going to see it?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
But I heard they opened the roo? Yeah yeah, and
it was a great night for.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
It under the stars perfect.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Isn't it a great venue?
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Oh? Mate? It was so good apparently.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And the Cats beat Warrior, who were the premis even better.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah better.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Didn't look like they were going to be. And they've
got this new star. He's seven foot and they called
him Jla.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Junior.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
But you wouldn't call him j would not call him
a seven foot call him shorty. And he shot twenty
two points a seven foot recruit Luel Chiuilly junior.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
So joey, Joey, we call him Jla.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
That's easier, mate. He looks sensational. So I reckon they've
got a crew there without Price Cotton he used to
run the show. He scored another I think thirty five
points last night. He's on fire for moving to Adelaide.
Thirty six is but I think the Cats have got
more of a team this year, so he's spread the load.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
I reckon they might do all right. So Red the
Red Army.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Turned out and it was a sensational night at RC Arena.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Good. Let's hope that's shaping up for a for a
big season.
