Coming up. On the podcast, Adrian Barrett pops in to
talk about the two teams into this year's AFL Grand Final,
Tonight's Brownlow Medal, the controversial and to the WAFL Grand
Final yesterday and Oscar Piastre sadly crashing out in Azerbaijan.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Russell will tell us how his Saturday was ruined because
he had to watch an anime movie with his son
and his friends because it was M fifty plus and
they needed a chaperone.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
And it ruined by Saturday. The Rolling Stones are apparently
recording another album, We.

Speaker 4 (00:42):
Take your you think You're having a bad day calls.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
And a doctor had both of his legs amputated to
not only commit insurance fraud, but for a weird sexual fetish.
How was your weekend? We'll go to plan.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
You already asked me this.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
You know how my weekend was? Yes, this Saturday was good.
Yesterday was crap on many levels.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
Well, if it's any consolation, my weekend didn't exactly go
to plan either. Well, I had a Saturday all sorted
out where I was going to get some jobs done.
But it just a nice.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
Judge in the morning, afternoon of leisure.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Yes, there was a bit of that. There was a
bit of that. But then so my son and his friend,
so my wife someone bought a couple of movie tickets.
You know, they decided they want to go and see
this movie because my son has like a whole stack
of the books and that. Have you ever heard of
of Demon Slayer?

Speaker 4 (01:42):
I hadn't until this morning. I thought, I thought that
you were talking about that K Pop. No, the Demon Hunter.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Oh that's probably equally as bad for a blood like me. No,
so probably so. So my job was purely just to
drop them off at the cinemas, to go and go
and see.

Speaker 4 (02:04):
This movie and then go home and get your jobs done.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
And then don't do, you know, do whatever I wanted
to do in my own time. Anyway, So I get
there and because I hadn't read the ticket, you know
that they scan, I didn't didn't look at the finer details,
and the guy wouldn't let us in. He said, he said,
this is a fifteen plus. I said, are they fifteen?

(02:26):
And I sort of looked at him and went, well
he might pass. He sure I won't. No, they said, well,
either you're going to have to pick another movie or
you're going to have to go in with them.

Speaker 4 (02:37):
Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
And I couldn't say no.

Speaker 5 (02:40):
So I had to go over and you had to
sit there, and I had I had to go, and
I had to go and buy a movie ticket, and
in I went with them.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
And the first thing I did was sit down and
text my wife and say thanks so thank you. It's
fifteen plus, which means I have to buy a ticket
and sit with them. There goes my afternoon. Yeah, two
hours and thirty five minutes. And I tell you, what.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
The heck is it about?

Speaker 1 (03:08):
It's animatud to two hours and thirty five minutes.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
I still have no idea what the hell was going on.
I tried to keep up, but I gave up.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
Thirteen year old, explain it to you.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
I didn't even ask. I didn't want to know. I mean,
this is what I te and a half hours of that,
and it did have subtitles, but I just couldn't keep up.
And early on in Japanese. It's in Japanese, and early on,

(03:42):
one of the characters shouts out, he must be killed,
and I thought, could it be me so that I
don't have to sit through this?

Speaker 4 (03:51):
Oh they're sharing your pain.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
No, because the rest of them knew what the hell
the situation was. And now I know what the rules are,
but I didn't see the ticket. I just said here,
I'm here to drop them off. Let them go into
the cinema and watch them watch their little cartoon, little
cartoon Japanese anime. Oh my god, it's so weird.

Speaker 4 (04:16):
That's hiarious.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
So that was that was just hell. That was hell.
They loved it. I just walked out my eyes rolling
around in my here going what the hell did I
just witness?

Speaker 1 (04:28):
They will also be, you know, regaling their people with
stories about this today at school, but it'll be a
very different story.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
How good was that?

Speaker 4 (04:40):
Very different plays? How good was that was that?

Speaker 3 (04:42):
And I'm going, oh my god, that's two and a
half hours. I mean that was only twenty five minutes
less than Titanic, but at least knew what was going on.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
You need two and a half hours.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
Two hours and thirty five a lot of drawing, a
lot of screaming, a lot of kill me.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Now, there's sure report on ninety six Air FM.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
You're gonna love this for us. The Japanese anime you
contributed to on.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
The weekend, Oh my god, the Juggernauth that is Demon Slayer,
Infinity Cars.

Speaker 5 (05:17):
That's it.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
Would you say it was two and a half hours.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
That two hours and thirty five minutes of my life
I'll never get back.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
Well, it's officially Japan's biggest movie ever, with an estimated
five hundred and fifty five million dollars plus globally, which
is actually about eight hundred and forty million Australia.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
That is I must've That is impressive. And I know
anime fans are they love it? I get they're serious,
just not one of them.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
It's not only the highest grossing anime movie ever worldwide,
but the biggest Japanese film of all time at a
global level.

Speaker 3 (05:52):
Even over Godzilla.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
Back in our day, we just we just called them cartoons.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
I mean, I don't remember I don't remember Lady in
the Tramp being referred to as a mate.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
But that's the other weird thing about this one. And
that's the thing about anime anatomically, like the eyes take
up half the face. Yeah, it's creepy, so.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
Did Lady in the Trams. Singer songwriter composer Sonny Curtis
has died. He was eighty eight. You might not immediately
recognize his name, you will know his stuff. He wrote this.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
As well as I thought the Laura and the Law one.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Sonny, it's not quite the clash version, is it now?

Speaker 4 (06:34):
It's not?

Speaker 1 (06:34):
Sonny wrote walk right back, And Sonny Curtis wrote just
one of the greatest theme songs to just one of
the greatest TV shows of all time.

Speaker 4 (06:48):
You get ready to pray your hat.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
Oh my god, I.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
Love the mayor.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Here's the reason why I became a journalist more and
Murvy Brown. Music producer Andrew Watt has just confirmed The
Rolling Stones are recording another album.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
Can you believe another one that was only about two
or three years ago they did which.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
Wasn't bad Ackney Diamonds at What a Grammy. It came
out in twenty twenty three. This guy also produced that
referencing the Stones classic logo. He told Rolling Stone as
in the magazine, it's like working for Batman.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
When the tongue is up in the air, you just
go now.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
Quick, today's for the tongue phone.

Speaker 4 (07:29):
Today's what wait?

Speaker 1 (07:31):
What now headline is this one surgeon arrested for insurance
fraud after amputating his own legs. A vascular surgeon has
been jailed for two years for amputating his own legs
to commit insurance fraud after performing amputations for many years
because he's a vascular surgeon. Back in twenty nineteen, forty
nine year old Neil Hopper told everyone he needed a

(07:54):
double leg amputation due to sepsis, and he filed insurance
claims that allowed him to receive more than seven hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. He returned to work six months
later with prosthetics, documenting his journey as an amputee on
social media and rather enjoying the fame that it was
bringing him. Insurance and investigators thought it was all of
its sus and they eventually uncovered the truth. Hopper had

(08:17):
applied dry ice to his legs for hours to require
the amputation. And here's where it gets even weirder if
you didn't think it was weird enough already. His jail
sentence also stems from three counts of his possessing videos
showing extremely high levels of body mutilation porn.

Speaker 4 (08:37):
Okay, so that's the thing. My life is thankfully very sheltered.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Lawyers stated his motivations were a combination of obsession with
removing parts of his own body and a sexual interest
in doing so. Right, Oh now, Hopper's passed amputee patients
and demanding further investigation to learn if he undecessary really
ampitated their body parts for his pleasure.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
There's a crime. He could never run away from.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
What a world?

Speaker 7 (09:09):
World?

Speaker 3 (09:09):
And if anyone's going to find those stories, Lisa's going
to find them Lisa More Russell More podcast Soon.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
Be guys, you had a bad day.

Speaker 8 (09:22):
You think you're.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Having a bad day, all those supporters, Yeah, this is
the day we try to ease our pain with them
telling stories of how our day was worse. I'll start yesterday,
mighty rolls, gallant fight back only to be robbed two

(09:44):
points short and one bad decision down of.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
The Grand Finals and then my boy oscar crash.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
All within that that within one two hours of each other,
wasn't it. Yeah?

Speaker 4 (09:57):
It was not a good, good afternoon.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
It was a very very bad sporting week.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
It was a bad day.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
You don't feel sorry for Collingwood supporters, though, do you?

Speaker 4 (10:04):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (10:04):
That was the day before that was there? Look that
is that is their cross to bed. I can't, I
can't take it all on. I had enough yesterday.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
That wasn't the only sporting bad news and heartbreak. How
about the Aussie four by four hundred meters men's relay
team disqualified after smashing the national record. They thought they
had it and then Aiden Murphy was disqualified, well disqualified
the whole team. Well apparently he was deemed to have

(10:35):
stepped over the line before accepting the baton.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
The thing about the handover.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
The illegal handover, It is.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
That moment in the relay time team race that is
just could go either way. I often wonder what happens
when they get behind closed doors after a bad handover.

Speaker 3 (10:55):
How was the discussion? I mean, the SBS commentator was going,
oh no, oh god, we're going to get disqualified?

Speaker 4 (11:03):
Something else? Does it all?

Speaker 3 (11:05):
Right?

Speaker 1 (11:06):
I think you're having a bad day, Wendy has in Frio,
someone tried to jimmy a car window rubber off likely
to break into the car, fortunately not successfully. So Kim
and Bradham, good morning.

Speaker 9 (11:19):
Good morning.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
What have you got for us that think we're having
a bad day?

Speaker 9 (11:24):
Oh? Well, It's kind of started yesterday afternoon. I kind
of broke my healthtick and was eating a oval teenie
lolly Oh. No, of a sudden, I felt something hard
in my mouth and I've and broken half a two
oh Sunday. I'm not even prepared to try and go
to an emergency dentist on a Sunday.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
No.

Speaker 9 (11:46):
And then, to top it off, this morning, I was
following up on a claim that I'd made because I
planned this big holiday to Florida next Easter, surprised my
auntie and I've denied my claim. I've had to cancel
the trip medical cousins and my auntie is not going
to be there. And the worst thing is my daughter

(12:10):
was looking forward to going to visit her and go
to Disney World that we're having a Disney Disney Seam
birthday party for her in a few weeks, and now
I have to tell her we're not going and insurance
won't cover my claim.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
M Yeah, not a great day at all. That's that's
a that's a you know what day. That's what pink
things about that you had a day. We had a
mid day.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Yeah, that's putting your.

Speaker 9 (12:36):
I'm flying out on a work trip early tomorrow morning
with a broker to get to the dentist.

Speaker 3 (12:44):
Oh gosh, see, Lisa, your grand final loss is just
nothing compared.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
No, you're quite right, it really isn't. Oh Kim, mm hmmm.

Speaker 9 (12:53):
Well, feeling a bit sorry for myself.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Let's know that things can get a bit better. And
so let's the work trip as well. And how did
you get to the dentist?

Speaker 3 (13:03):
Sooner or later? It's going to turn around for you.

Speaker 9 (13:07):
At least that's spring weather today.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
Looking on the inside, I love it good like him
and fine, Oh boy, see no good. All you had
to do was him suffer.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
And that was my lot yesterday in life. Don't But
you're right, Kim's day was.

Speaker 3 (13:31):
Worse, even worse than me having to sit through two
and a half hours of Demon Slayer.

Speaker 4 (13:37):
Nothing comparitive slay at the football.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yes, at how bad has your day been? Well?

Speaker 1 (13:44):

Speaker 3 (14:14):
Day to be a kim. No, it's not home a
royal supporter.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Have a listened to Anna and Wandi's bad day from yesterday.
I got home, I go home from washing my car,
all good. Then I put my washing on, went outside
and I locked myself out.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
I just happened to have a T shirt on and
that was it. That's no. No.

Speaker 1 (14:36):
Then went so she had to go to the back
neighbor to call the landlord. I'm imagining Annie and I've
tried to, you know, hold the T shirt down.

Speaker 4 (14:45):
As close to Adez as she can.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Then went to call the landlord to bring the spare
key to open the door. So I had to wait
and wait and wait. The landlord arrive but didn't have
the spare key.

Speaker 4 (14:54):
That was what you were coming for, mate, So.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
He had to call his wife. So more waiting in
my T shirt a total of fifty minutes. Then finally
got inside. Oh my god, so embarrassed.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
On the upside, on the upside and at least it
wasn't last Sunday. No, imagine just having a T shirt on.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
Exactly Sunday, exactly.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
It would have blown away last call for.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
You're having a bad day.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
You think you're having a bad day Monday, Tracy in Ashby, Hello.

Speaker 6 (15:21):
Hello, how are you guys?

Speaker 3 (15:22):
Good morning Tracy?

Speaker 4 (15:24):
What's happened?

Speaker 3 (15:25):
All right? Come on, okay.

Speaker 6 (15:27):
So it was about a week and a bit ago
my mother in law started experiencing hallucinations and seeing funny
things and funny people, and they were trying to attack
her and everything. So we took it a hospital. They
thought she had a UTI causing all this, so they
did all the tests, did everything else, and then we

(15:51):
got the good news that she didn't have a UTI.
She was fine, there were no issues, not nothing whatsoever.
So then the whole thing started again. During the week
which she was running around the backyard, guns were trying
to catch her, people were trying to get in her
house and make her die, and all sorts of other things,
and so we have none of us have had it

(16:12):
sleep for a week. So we spent all of yesterday
in the hospital with her again because we thought we're
not leaving till we get an answer and find out
what's going on.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (16:23):
The first doctor we see goes, oh, did she finish
her antibiotics? And I went, well, no, she didn't have
any use for them. And she said, oh, no, she
had a UTI, a really bad one.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
You've got to see them to the end.

Speaker 4 (16:36):
You've got to see them through. Yeah, but you got
to you got to watch them like a hawk.

Speaker 10 (16:41):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (16:41):
They didn't give her any.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
She did not have a UTI.

Speaker 6 (16:46):
She was not sick. There was nothing wrong with her.

Speaker 4 (16:49):
Oh, and she should have been on a course of antibiotics.

Speaker 6 (16:51):
A really strong course of antibiotics.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
Very strong.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
Hospital decided that the.

Speaker 7 (17:00):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
So yeah, that's a fun, fun fun. That's a Tracy Tracy.

Speaker 4 (17:08):
Let's hope this week's better.

Speaker 3 (17:09):
Yes, I hope.

Speaker 6 (17:11):
So she's back in hospital, she's on antibiotics, all.

Speaker 4 (17:14):
Right, and so she's on the fine. Okay, that's good.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
Well there we go, Thanks Tracy, Tracy. Wow, good heavens,
that's a scary week. That's a scary week. You're you're
looking at another message, here are you? Because we've we've
got a few, oh, including the Beagle escape artist.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
I know it's escape art.

Speaker 3 (17:39):
This looks like another being caught naked outside from Tracy
of Cloverdale. Yeah, there you go.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Well, well she's dog sitting her son's beagle an escape artist.

Speaker 4 (17:50):
That is a trutology to begin with. I know I
had a beagle.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
So like a flash, she's out the front gate across
the road to the park and you can't call them back.
They get they get the sand, and they're off. So
she's chased after her. This is Tracy and Cloverda. She's
chased after her in her pj's and fluffy slippers. Anyway,
she's running and she hears a slapping noise from under
the pjs. It's the girls. As I ran, we all

(18:13):
know what that many girl so a dog work had
caught the dog and I thanked him in my pj's
and fluffy slippers, realizing of course that each boob would
secured itself.

Speaker 4 (18:22):
Under my armpits.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
So mortifying because you can't really rearrange yourself when you're
in the middle of it.

Speaker 4 (18:28):
Thank you not really trying to secure your beagle.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
Not really.

Speaker 4 (18:32):
Yeah, I feel your pain with the escape artist, I
had a beagle.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
Thank you for your bad doing stories because it's made
us feel a whole lot better about how things are
going for us after the weekend.

Speaker 4 (18:42):
It always helps, so.

Speaker 3 (18:43):
Thank you very much for that. We really really appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
More of Lisa and Mussel's podcast. It's on the way soon.
Let's talk sport with the Adrian Barrage.

Speaker 11 (18:54):
When you've got to get work, you've got to get
into work Blobber. Their eight trade stores are everywhere, so
when you need it, you can get it or check
out worklubber dot com, dot at you here we are, Burah.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
Yeah, you need to nurse her through sport this morning.
A tough, tough, tough twenty four hours for Lisa.

Speaker 7 (19:13):
We'll get to that in a moment. Just two points
in that game as well. No, but they were very
brave and there was a controversial finish so well well canvas.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
That controversial, controversial, but.

Speaker 7 (19:24):
It turned out it wasn't controversial. When you know the rules,
that's the problem. Most people don't know the rules, particularly
you know what, particularly the commentators. It's actually incredible how
many commentators don't actually know the rules. And they especially
the old blocks, they shoot their gob off and then
they go like me and.

Speaker 8 (19:42):
No, that's not the rule.

Speaker 3 (19:43):
I think he's on your side.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
I don't think I think I might pop out while
he's talking about that.

Speaker 7 (19:48):
No, they were so brave though, so good East Person
World under South from Antle. But in the AFL, Lisa,
who did you say would make the grand find?

Speaker 10 (19:56):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (19:56):
I said it would be Gee long and calling what
I was, You're very close.

Speaker 8 (20:00):
Wrong, No, but that's a very good tip early Doors.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
I can't remember if I said Collingwood definitely said I
wanted the lines. Yeah, and yeah, yes you did.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
Mat I originally said Collingwood and Brisbane. True, and so
you know that was as close as it could get.
I didn't know that. You know, I can't control which path.

Speaker 7 (20:22):
Well, you were right about Brisbane back to back to
back ground finals now and now it's so it's Geelong
and Brisbane the fight of the feelines, I suppose.

Speaker 8 (20:31):
And Friday Night, what about the ninety nine thousand people?

Speaker 4 (20:35):
That is massive?

Speaker 7 (20:36):
Incredible, isn't It's a lot Geelong too good for Hawthorne
by thirty points. I think six hundred thousand people watched
it in Melbourne, like I'm the Telly as well, plus
one hundred thousand at the grain. And then there's this
like Benjamin Button Patrick Dangerfield thirty five years old, and
just goes bang like what that. I don't know what
he's been doing, what he's eating, but I'm going to

(20:57):
get some yourself. He was best on ground. Tom Stewart
got knocked out, so you know what that means he
can't play there one of.

Speaker 8 (21:04):
The catchish Yeah, twelve days.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
That's true.

Speaker 4 (21:09):
There's always one story.

Speaker 7 (21:10):
So you know what that does now is the pushes
to make the buy between the preliminary and the Grand final.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Not because of one guy got concussion that that would
be the most mirandous break.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
There's always a heartbreak story. There is always at least.

Speaker 7 (21:25):
But then they're saying, then everyone will be fit for
the ground necessarily.

Speaker 1 (21:28):
But what if you do you know, you do your
ankle and you're out for two weeks and then they'll go, oh,
let's have a month off between the two sos and ever,
let's just wait till next year.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
I mean, where does it stop. It's ridiculous. It breaks
the momentum.

Speaker 7 (21:40):
At least it's not a fan In case you didn't know,
that made me laugh because it makes me cough.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
That's very funny, just cough over that way.

Speaker 7 (21:50):
So anyway, they are thinking about moving the finals by
too that weekend for the GRAMD Final, but after that
Ranch probably not. And then Saturday Brisbane beat Collingwood by
twenty nine points?

Speaker 8 (22:02):
Are actually pants them? Really? In front of ninety six thousand?
How much we love that? Chris Fagan? Everyone loves Chris Fagan.

Speaker 7 (22:09):
He's like everyone's dad, twist granddad.

Speaker 8 (22:14):
No one likes that.

Speaker 3 (22:15):
That one's an uplifting Fagan.

Speaker 4 (22:18):
Surely losing Pedalbury in the first.

Speaker 7 (22:19):
Time a couple of minutes was now we need to
we need to dig deep into this one because he's
on two hundred and four hundred and twenty nine games
and he's inside of the all time record Boomers harve
his all time record.

Speaker 8 (22:32):
Of four point thirty two.

Speaker 7 (22:34):
Does he play on? Was he wanting to get out
there and up his games? I don't know. He looked
injured in the warm up. He obviously made a call
to play and it backfired. Maybe thought they'd win. So yeah,
that was a big blow. And then there was a
controversial non free kick.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
Sorry about coffee because when you cough before I sprayed Glen,
I think I hailed it, yes, spitty you out?

Speaker 7 (23:02):
Yeah anyway, And so we're jerom fobic, aren't I know
what it's like. You need your voice for the show. Yes,
So anyway, So this is Craig McCrae, the coach of Colin.
We're talking about the controversial non free kick to Jamie
Ellie with nine minutes to go when it looked like
a big spoil from Stacevich, but it looked like he

(23:24):
hit his arm, so it maybe it was a free
kick for Jamie Elliot.

Speaker 8 (23:27):
And this is what Craig McCrae said, No, I did
it look like that?

Speaker 10 (23:29):
Yeah, yeah I did. No guarantee you kicked the goal, though,
is it like this? This is the world I live in.
I never I never make excuses. I don't want our
fans to see a coach that leads our group through
excuses because it just doesn't get you anywhere. I think
losers make excuses. We don't. We're winners and we didn't
win today, clearly beaten by a better team. I think

(23:50):
they would have beaten us anyway the way they were playing.
So yeah, you could say what if if only, but
it's not the space we live in. We didn't control
the things we could control well and around stoppage and
then were a great momentum going in a half time
and we just let it slip real quick. And this
is I gues. It's a really good opposition. You know,
they make three Grand finals, row really well coached Figs

(24:12):
had a great year again and you know they've got
a few out and just shows the depth of their
belief and their system and just be better than us.

Speaker 4 (24:20):
Do you know what, it's his birthday today?

Speaker 7 (24:23):
Flat flat birthday Monday. Do you think they're having a
bad day Monday? So now I will look at Locky
Newle play. That's the only thing. I think they'll put
Locky Newell in for the Grand Final. Apparently he's going okay, so.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
A little bit the bench maybe just.

Speaker 7 (24:41):
You might start him on the bench. I don't think
he'll be the sub. But yeah, that'll be the story
of the week. So tonight the Brownlow Medal, it's on
the Blue carpet, live on Telly in the Grand Final Saturday,
five horse.

Speaker 12 (24:54):
Race after the after the blue carpet, Well, someone else
will get that's break quick.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
Three hours, that's what you just come in towards the end,
but it gets exciting.

Speaker 8 (25:11):
So Nick Dacos basketball, I reckon he wins.

Speaker 7 (25:14):
Nick Dakos, beautiful young man, Bailey Smith, Jordan's.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Busy, Jordan Dawson Decos definitely yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7 (25:21):
Narah Anderson, Matt Round. The dark horse is Caleb Sarong,
so I hope he goes well. And the other big
award tonight is the Rising Star, Please God, it goes
to Docer Murphy Reid, Bruce Reid as they're.

Speaker 4 (25:34):
Calling I said earlier, but.

Speaker 7 (25:42):
He has stormed a favoritism Levi Ashcroft and Daniel Martin,
Daniel Curtain, Dan Curtain hit from w A because he
finished inside the top sixty for score involvements, equalled Cyril
Reali's record for the most score assist by first year player,
kicked twenty five goals and he's already won Irfield.

Speaker 8 (26:00):
Play Association Best Player Award.

Speaker 7 (26:02):
It's got to be a I'll start calling it the
Falling Star Award if Murphy Reid doesn't win, because he
clearly lost all.

Speaker 8 (26:10):
Do we need a spoiler alert for the.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
I think, to be fair, that one was on early
enough last night.

Speaker 3 (26:18):
But if he could watch it, we all knew.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
I think when it's on the in the middle of
the night, spoiler alert is warranted.

Speaker 7 (26:25):
But well, you certainly had plenty of time plenty of
time to see Oscar Piastre's race, because see he was
out on that run. It was unbelievable. So the worst
weekend of all time. I don't know what happened, whether
that whole thing with McLaren has rocked him a bit,
you know, having to let Land go past him and
all that sort of stuff, so he had a false start.

Speaker 8 (26:46):
It wasn't no need to.

Speaker 7 (26:47):
Then he had a lap one crash, but he still
retains a healthy championship lead because Lando failed to capitalize.

Speaker 3 (26:54):
I was just going to say on the upside, because
he looked pretty glum afterwards. But I think in the
back of his mind going, yeah, but Orlando did do
very well.

Speaker 4 (27:02):
And he's only human, so yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 7 (27:04):
You're a bit of an expert. Max Verstappen. Any chance
that he could come through because he's on fires one.

Speaker 8 (27:10):
Of the last two years.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
I mean, he's he's twenty five points behind Oscar and
he's he's quite from behind that Lando.

Speaker 3 (27:19):
I think Max is a little bit further back.

Speaker 8 (27:22):
Yeah, yeah, I thought.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
He was twenty five points behind.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
If McLaren. If McLaren bounce back next rate.

Speaker 8 (27:29):
He can't.

Speaker 7 (27:30):
Yeah, but Jesus driving well he's breaking lap records left,
right and center. So yeah, we'll just we'll see what
happens there. But it's got all of a sudden, it's
got very interesting.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
I wanted seven races to go.

Speaker 8 (27:42):
Yeah, it sounds like a lot.

Speaker 4 (27:43):
It does sound like a lot. I thought I didn't
think there was that many to go.

Speaker 7 (27:46):
Now the World Championships, the Athletics Championships in Tokyo finish wrapped.

Speaker 3 (27:51):
Up, and we spoke about this this morning. This is
you think you're having a bad day, think of the
Aussie relay to him.

Speaker 7 (27:57):
Oh yeah, actually, do you want to play that audio? So
this was amazing. So they broke the national record, the Aussies,
and they thought they were in the final. And then
they replay it and then one of the Aussie bloke
steps back over the blue line that you're not allowed
to cross. You know, you're not even allowed to walk
inside that line when you come onto the onto the
track to get the get into position to get the baton.

(28:19):
So some bugs stepped back and just hearing Bruce and
how it ruined his day, and he's been speaking to
tam'sen Manu. She starts explaining it and then Bruce just
sums it up for a whole of Australia.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
Ah no, oh no, this is devastating. Oh here it is.

Speaker 4 (28:37):
This is where let's oh no, I know where. Oh god, disqualified.

Speaker 2 (28:43):
They've got no lead to stand on.

Speaker 4 (28:45):
They're going to be disqualified, so no national rebu.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
Oh there's a bit of air just gone out of
a very very lovely balloon.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
Have you ever heard Bruce itself? So Subjune, I've never
heard it.

Speaker 8 (29:01):
I love that guy.

Speaker 7 (29:02):
And we did get a gold medal though in the
high jump. Nicola Ollie Slaggers, now she used to be
Nicola McDermott, do you reckon?

Speaker 8 (29:10):
She sort of had half of a thought of you
know what I'm I starting you reckon? It's all right
with slagerslagers.

Speaker 7 (29:20):
Yeah, anyway, the Dutch mate, so she married a Dutchman,
but a devout Christian she is, and she jumped two
meters and the greatest female high jumper on the planet
as well, so called on everything to win that. So
that was good, all right, So let's get to it
the waffle.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
To be fair, I jumped that high yes, sound that
last goal from the royal put them within two points?

Speaker 8 (29:45):
What about this?

Speaker 7 (29:45):
So what happened there, you know, So it was a
free kick to east Berth in the middle of the ground.
But then the siren went so south from out I
started celebrating. So one of the South from out of
guys booted the crap out of the ball. Okay, which
you normally would be a fifty meta penalty on ran
a lot of the South from outle bench. The fireworks
came out, the stage started moving house, and but I

(30:08):
checked the rules and it says that umpires can't award
a fifty meta penalty after the final siren in that
circumstances because there's no because the only fifty you get
for that is time wasting. But there's no time left
to waste.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, but if what you're awarding the penalty for happened
within the play before the sirens, just what I don't understand.

Speaker 8 (30:30):
But the kicking the ball away is a time wasting thing.
You laugh about you anyway, that's the rules. I'm not
taking sides.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
There's no argument. There's no stop of this.

Speaker 7 (30:42):
Argument from premiers for twenty twenty five. So summon up
a two point thriller, a siren starter and the result
that's already got its own conspiracy thread on social.
