Yeah, I've got gaffa tape holding up a couple of
parts of my car at the moment that I great.
My side mirror got knocked off a few years ago

or five years now. Just the one piece of tape.

to my car, the childlock and the window ones are
all attached, but they all rattle around. So I just
put a bit of gaffa tape over those as well,
and does the trick. It doesn't rattle anymore.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
Thank you, Ross Coome onning morning, christ and how are you.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
I'm calling in about injured as a fan. I was
at my very first big Bash game and I was
up on the top deck of now Marble Stadium and
Aaron Finch hit one right up under the top deck
and I went to court catch it, and I ended
up splitting the webbing in my hand, hell and left.
I had to go to Saint Vincent's and let the
(04:39):
little trail of blood between my seat and where they
had to attend to me. And then two for one
was around that just before Christmas, and I didn't want
to go to the doctor, so I got an chicole
stick and a bit of gaffe tape and and made
a little splint and had eventually healed in a few weeks.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
This is incredible two for one. I love when the
streams get crossed.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Sometimes I know it goes buses, they don't cross them,
but you cross them there.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
That is amazing. I want to know, did you did
you catch the ball?
Speaker 7 (05:08):
Though initially no, and I'm an Harminex cricketer, and I
made the I made the TV and my phone went
berserved with all my mates sledging me for dropping it.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Yeah, that's horrendous because that's not fair. I bet what
hurts more the pain of the webbing or they're not
catching the ball.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Probably the sledging I got after.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (05:29):
Yeah, that's the worst, deeper than the many actual injuries.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And there's footage.
Speaker 8 (05:33):
Yeah, could you bring yourself to go and watch the
slow mo back again?
Speaker 7 (05:36):
They played if someone drops a catch, they play more
times than if they say too.
Speaker 8 (05:41):
That actually measured how far and hintould hit it because
they didn't expect to go to the top deck and
and out. It was like eighty seven meters or something
from his back of my hand.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Oh that's incredible, great story, Ross, thank you very much.
