Speaker 1 (00:01):
Here at Two Good Sports, we would like to acknowledge
the traditional owners of the land on which we record
this podcast. There were innerie people. This land was never seated,
always was always will be Hello, Hello, Hello, and the
avenue two Good Sports Sports. He is told differently.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
I'm Georgie Tanner and I'm Abbe Jelmy And can you
believe George, We're back.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
We're back, We're back. Oh, I am so excited to
kick off season three of Two Good Sports. And Jelmy,
what have you been doing? Because we have had a
little bit of an off season. We've been stretching.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I mean, it's been a pretty quiet off season for
me what I did at change jobs, had a child.
But other than that, you know, not much actually really genuinely,
not much else has been happening.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
No, we dance card full though, I think with the
new job and the new child, so I think.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Welcome little Ollie into the world. So Oliver Herb, Oliver
Herb he is I've been doing that parent thing where
I've been like, yeah, he's twelve weeks. I've been saying
that for apparently twelve weeks. Because he's sixteen weeks now,
he's not which parents talking weeks he's four months let's
just break that.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
I mean, I think louis your eldest. I think he's
six months old. So it's mental now.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
So we've survived two under two and probably more relevant
to this podcast, Let's be honest. Joined ABC as offside
as host is just I mean, it's basically an extrapolation
of this podcast. Getting to talk about the big issues
in sport with an expert panel. It's a dream, dream gig.
And when you're following the likes of of course you're
Jared Witley, You're Kelly Underwood, Mary Cassidy, I know, way
(01:35):
at the start like icons of Australian media, a litt
alone Australian sports media. So it was a big old
chair to film. I mean was about two weeks postpardon
when I interviewed for it. Sure, sure, but that's just
how this world works.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
How fun to be an icon because now you're one.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Oh, I don't think you inherently when you're in the seat,
you just don't get.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
To pretty sure, that's how it works.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I think Kelly's now in OAM.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Well, so when I got letter from the King telling
me that there's an honorary maybe I'll get to lean in,
but no, very humbled and loving it so far.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
It's very, very fun. You've packed a lot in. What
have I done in the off season? I did move house? Yes, yes,
so that was my Everest? And did she make it
all the way down again? I don't know. We're still
we're still unpacking unpacking. Honestly, it's got to the stage
where I'm like, ah, those boxes. Turns out we have
an attic where I've managed to stuff them. I've never
had an attic before, and I'm like, I'm not gonna
(02:29):
unpack that. I'm just gonna put them up there.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Oh yeah, it's great. It's great. I mean, it's not
great to have a mental one because that show that
breaks down, but it is good depth some one where
you can shove things that sounds like you're moving up
in life, but drop some names. Who you like. I mean,
very recently Billie Eilish, Yeah, who else chattered to?
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Billy was the biggest one. Probably recently tried to ice
Cube as well. Who else have I been chatting to?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Billy said you smell nice, which you can't smell people
through podcasts. Georgie is one of those people that has
fragrance of wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
That's right, I do. I do love a fragrance and
did I specifically choose fragrance because I thought, you know,
he would like this, Billy, and she bloody well did
and I nailed it. So it was at the end
of the interview and we're getting our little photo. Now
this is not just I mean, yes, she did love me, sorry,
she did love me, but everyone got a photo.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Billy didn't request it.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah so me. No, other people may
have got photos with her too. But anyway, during my
photo with Billy, she was just like, you smell amazing.
What is that?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
And I was like, what was it?
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Pheromones? It was just me Actually, no, no, no, it's
d S and Durga. I don't know what. Now that
is the fragrance. Every time I tell people I don't
know what, they're like, Okay, what gatekeeping bloody fragrance.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
That's a wild I don't know, I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
But that is Billy Eilish's favorite scent. And she was
just divine, just divine, you know what.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
She's good sport We should probably give some sporty chat.
We both went to the tennis.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Oh yes, we did we talked to ash Party.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Yeah, oh yeah, we did talk to eld.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
We Oh yeah that business.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yes, women in sport, we did enjoy that. Thank you, Emirates.
But what was your take on the OS Open?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I mean, once again, incredible event, incredible event in light
of events that have happened after that. Fascinating. Isn't it
a fascinating time, especially in the men's game.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I found the men's finals so uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I mean, I not I mean, I don't want to
just absolutely criticize the entire competition. I found the final
of the men's game boring. I found the women's finals
so entertaining. It was amazing, And quite often we would
have the opposite discussion, so we'd be like, oh, yeah,
the women's game was it was okay, the final it
was alright, it was all right, but there's usually a
clear winner.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
This one exceptional Madison keys that she had And yeah, excenta.
Of course we are going to we're getting into deep
dive territory.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
We might on that down the track becoming up.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
It is going to be one of the big inns
I think of twenty twenty five discussing doping in sport.
But what that leads us to what is going to
be the outshat today. We're going ins and outs for
twenty twenty five, hi brow, low brown, everything in between
that's coming up next.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Jellm me something that is just inescapable. Every single time
and New Year kicks off? Are these ins and outs lists?
And while I've not loved them from other outlets, oh,
you best believe I was excited to hear ours.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
I was just about to say, when you're like, let's
do our ins and outslets, I was like, gott, I
hate those, Yeah, sure, sure, because I just feel like
it's so self serving to be like I am the
deciding body of what is in, what is out? But
for us funny and the other point I would like
to hear yours. So I sport as a whole, but
obviously more leaning into the codes that we enjoy.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Yes, yes, definitely and always there's going to be some curveballs.
There's going to be a few curveballs popping up in mind.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
We don't know each other's we've done individual ones. Will
there be overlap more than likely, But Georgie, it's a
fresh year, it's a fresh season twenty twenty five. It's
going to be bigger than better. Do we say that
every year? Sure? But I believe it. So hit me,
what are your inns for twenty twenty five?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
My number one in Nathan Cleary?
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Oh god, I know, not something different.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Something different. No, look, I just from what I saw
over in Vegas the NRL's opening round confirmed he's going
to be an absolute superstar once again. Was there that
much doubt that it would happen again? I mean, you know,
you can live in hope, you can live in hope
that he might just have a slightly average, a slightly
average game. Doesn't seem like it's going to be happening
(06:53):
this year. So Nathan Cleary, the Penrith Panthers superstar who
broke my heart in the Grand File against the Prisin
Broncos a couple of years ago, I mean, I'm over it.
I'm over it. I never bring it up. Unfortunately, I
think he is I mean, unfortunately for Penrith Pans, but
unfortunately for myself as the Queens and found a Broncos fan.
I think he is very much in. He's not going anywhere.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Penrith's still in because they've had some big off seasons
changes they are.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Oh I was hoping that they weren't going to be
To be honest, I was like, come on, share it round,
share the skill around, share the passion round, share the
form around. They'll be there. They'll be a top four side.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
No god, okay, next Oscar Pistre oh yeah, massive in
yeah yeah, yeah yeah, but I've never been more in.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Yes, he is in the best car heading into the
Australian Grand Prix, and I think that we are going
to see him on podium after podium after podium this season.
What this is a two pronged dare I say a
compound in? So we have Oscar Piastre is going to
be in and therefore by default stay with me. Lando
Norris's villain arc, so his teammate at McLaren. Oh yeah,
(07:59):
not Lando, Lando the villain arc. Has it gone anywhere? No,
but the green Goblin of our dreams. He is going
to be back and he is going to be featuring
as the side eye man.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
If the was an animal, he'd be a squirrel. But
you can't hate him, you know you can't.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
You love it. I love the pettiness. I love the
pettiness that just drips from every pore of him and
he seems to just be like, hmm, okay, just waiting
in the wings. I just love it and I cannot
wait for the time when McLaren says Lando let oscar pass.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
In saying that you and I are going to an
event with Lando next week, which you won't be going petty.
You'll be like, Hi, can I have a photo? I
smell nice?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
I smell nice. I smell nice. I'll lean in. I'll
lean in with the fragrance just wafted out.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
That's just what context Georgie did. Try to get a
chat with Lando, and no one has ever given a
don't argue more.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, he was channeling Dustin Martin to be honest.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Just did a right walk by. Okay, what's next?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Okay next. I think this is a very important one.
I think you and I are both aligned here. Critical
analysis of women's thought bang. Yes, so a lot of
times I think women's but now we are demanding that
it be taken seriously and therefore what comes with that
is proper analysis of where.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
It's at, and that can be critical and it's allowed
to be critical. And we saw that during the women's ashes,
where the English side got absolutely served in the media
here and abroad, essentially saying you cannot rock up to
international competition and be this underpath. There are questions about
their fitness. If you don't perform, you get criticized in
the same way the email peers do. And we love that, Yes,
(09:29):
we love that.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
So therefore, for me, I am looking to see a
lot more analysis of women's sport, just because as women's
sport becomes more and more prominent and lots more people
go to the games and go to these events and
support by actually being there bums on seats, that is
what I'm saying is in as well. But with that
obviously comes the constructive let's call it constructive criticism too.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
This is a.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Controversial one for me, but I like it. The sinbin
for the AFL, bring it in, Bring it in. I
know it's not in, but I'm saying I wanted him.
I want them to be a sinbin for the AFL.
I would love that.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Interesting.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
What do you think I haven't even heard.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
I've been listening to a lot of talk back radio
here in Melbourne. I haven't heard anyone else say bring
the sinbin in. So it is a new concept that
I haven't considered. But I mean particularly when we're thinking
about cte yes and trying to put players off that
sort of head high contact. If it's clearly deliberate, if
it's alla Reese Walsh in Origin, Yeah, well, yeah, you've
(10:29):
got to. I don't mind it.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
I don't see and I'm not saying maybe not ten minutes,
but five minutes. Let's just open up the discussion. I'd
love there to be a talking point about the sinbin
for the AFL. I think ten minutes in AFL slightly
to too much punishment. It's too harsh of a punishment
for a team. But five minutes, if you, you know,
no good onto the side into the naughty corner. I
can see it. I can see it.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
I've been parenting too long because all I can think
of is like, how long should you send the kitchen
the room for the sinbin? Yeah, five minutes. I think
they've lent the lesson. You can come back out apologize.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, and then you're done. It's so app that you
mentioned Reese Welsh the love of my life.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Maybe because.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
One of my inns nail polished on footy players. Yeah,
and I've put Hello Reese with a love heart emoji.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Also, Harry Garsard.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Yes, Harry Garside, I'm into it, into it. I just
love it when you are going to see personality which
brings me to another in personalities, I want more nick
curios style vibes from the athletes. Okay, let's be interesting.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Well I'm going to cross that one off my list.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
You had it.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, I said, coaches and athletes showing personality five exclamations.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah, I've got brackets. Please, for the love of God.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Yeah, I think we're getting there. I think we're getting
We're going to have less one week at a time.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Yeah, Okay, do you think so?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
I think so, Young Hawks, I've got my personality endorsements.
You've got to you've got to show different bizazz to
get brands on board.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah. Howcball may come up in one of my other
lists today. Also in soccer US Young Soccer Use and
I've got a little explainer here for our listeners that
they are the male Matilda's, just in case you don't
know who the soccer Us are. That's the male Matilda's.
Are you womenplaining, I'm women's plaining. I am women explaining.
And I think that twenty twenty five where you're going
(12:16):
to see a rise, and this is fresh off the
back of the Young Soccer Roose winning. I think it
was the Asian Cup.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
They did so well it was yea, I was about
to say it was our first Age division win in Asia.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Yeah, incredible. Out of nowhere.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
The Green shoots all look good. They just need to
keep growing.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
And I think that we're going to see some positive
results for the soccer US as they are chasing that
direct qualification to the World Cup. So I think that
they are going to be back in our headlines. I've
only got a couple more in my inns. Inns, good merch.
For the love of God, please give us good merch.
I'm sick of the ugly prince. I'm sick of the
clashing like patterns and all of this, Like, can we
(12:56):
just buy a nice looking bucket hat?
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Please? So many that correlate to keep going.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Female owners of sporting teams. Yes, yes, So we've got
Natalie Portman, Serena Williams, Williams most recently the WNBA team
in Canada. So I am so excited that that seems
to be a trend that is happening. That is a
very big inn for me. That is my list here
we go, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
I just love that you finish on your note. Mine
might be a little bit more low brown because my
inn is pink girns. Do you know what that is,
biable merchant, because the Sons have recently done their away
kit in the pink, and I remember watching the Panthers
in their pink and going, well, that's clever.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, oh, I think Panthers jersey I am for which
is almost one of my favorite jerseys.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
So I just you know again, I promise it does
get a little bit more. But also as a follow
on anyone but Penrith, my inn for five is anyone
but Penrith, because as a journalist it's really hard without
bringing out your hand to count back to back to
back to back.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Yeah it is to back. Yeah, we can't have five.
We can't have a five. We can't have a five.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Pete, it's greedy, not great for the game.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
No, it isn't another in Bruce, oh, Bruce.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
And commentary choice Okay, because for the first time in
the AFL, we're going to have both Fox and seven
providing commentary, so it's not just going to be your
Fox team doing the intro to the game and then
you get your seven callers. Essentially it is head to
head and they are throwing everything in the kitchen. See
hence Bruce mcaveney coming out of retirement like a phoenix
(14:35):
from the ashes. For the love of God, have him
do the brown low.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Yes, yes, he's the only way, to be honest, I
think that in that I respect to everyone who is
in part of those commentary teams. You need a Bruce
to be able to compete with Fox and all of
the games that they are just broadcasting this year.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
So this is an out that needed to be included
in my inn to follow up that conversation in that
free to air AFL on Saturdays is out.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
It's out.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah, So I think that it's been lost in the
wash of this four point five billion dollar deal that
people are going to sit down to watch their AFL
that they know is on a Saturday afternoon and unless
you are one of the people that has KO or
Foxtel or Fox Sport, you're not going to be able
to watch footy. And that's the first time that our
great game has been behind a paywall on what is
(15:19):
such an appointment day. And understandably Fox have gone Saturday
Saturday with you know, Brownie and Rewolt having a sing
on a piano because they're like, we have every game.
So if you want to not have three soil lates
a week to justify the price that you're going to
be paying to watch footy, well part of.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
That should we say inns? Then for the pubs in
the hospitality industry, because they are going to be overflowing
from people who don't necessarily but Cozy.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Lives, Oh yeah, can we afford to be going out
every Saturday? And my concern is understandably seven is going
to argue for the bigger clubs, yes, to not be hidden,
so the smaller clubs that are already battling to keep
engaging members are going to be behind a paywall. So
fans go, oh well I can't even see him play, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
(16:09):
so the smaller get smaller. I can't hide Collingwood in
that slot.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
It's one of those things though that you won't realize
the true impact of that until it's happening. So good
one from you.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Well, we also know opening round has been washed out,
so I think round one people will realize what's actually
happened because I don't think the outrage has met what
it will actually be because people just don't realize how
much their viewing habits are actually going to change. Yes,
agreed in bombers in the eight oh men's bombers because
we know that our women's side have won a final,
(16:40):
so that stuff. But I reckon the bombers, mate, the eight.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
You can't lie to bomb.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I'm just going to keep coming on the Wallabies. Oh,
the Wallabies is set in a massive in because we
have the British and Irish line tour, but also your
mate Joseph Kuso sulii have I had to learn how
to pronounce that quickly. Yes, I have the cross Coade Hopper,
the highest pay the player in union. Has just been
an absolute master stroke.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
And it was even doubt, never in doubt that he
was going to do well, Oh, never in doubt. It
was like when Israelph Laut, whatever you think about him,
it was like when he was brought over to rugby
union and everyone's like, oh, I mean, it's such a
different game. Will he even be good? Just like the
single handedly like best rugby union player you've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Well, he's also playing positions that he hasn't played since
high school. True, that's how much of a freak this
kid is. I mean, we've already seen what he did
for the Wallaby's making his debut, if you don't mind
in the Code for the Wallabies in front of eighty
thousand hostile fans, in twigger them and being Player of
the Test. It was just ridiculous. So I think get
(17:45):
your Wallabies gurnsy out you all had as a kid,
blow the dust off it and get excited. And also
we have Bash Shrugby enough on this podcast that we
feel the need to say something generally positive about the Code,
putting family first in that well. And this is obviously
off the back of a list that I wrote this morning,
Lucky Neil coming out and saying, well, if the AFL
(18:05):
wanted to move the opening round game to Melbourne, I
wouldn't be going because I've got two young kids at
home and there's a cyclone about to hit my house.
I think that this idea that players just have to
do what is best for the Code as opposed to
what's best for their family. And again I sort of
extrapolate this wider to the Luka Doncic's trade and the
fact that he just got traded had no idea and
(18:27):
within forty eight hours it needs to move to La.
My brain goes to does he have like kids and
a wife that might have her own life, and like,
are these players just chess pieces? And we've seen in
the NRL. The NRL have said, well, the Dolphins are
going to play the bunnies and just get on the.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Plane, and there has been backlash for that, Like I've
called it disgusting because you're going to be left at
home pregnant with two young kids.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
There's a natural disaster hitting and you're taking you're taking
the linesman like the big unit that's gonna help me
sandbag this shit? Absolutely not. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Interesting. Do you think that that is going to hold
for the whole twenty twenty five?
Speaker 2 (19:10):
I don't know, but I really enjoyed that Locke Neil,
who's a two time Brownlow medalist, coming out and saying
I wouldn't be going and I went, you know what,
in I'm about it.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Okay, I like it. I like it.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
I think the Rus go back to back in the AFLW. Yeah,
I think they didn't drop a game. I think it's
a very very pretty in from me behind the scenes documentaries.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Okay, Wow.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
We okay, I'm just buddy, because is that you're out there.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Is an out for me that might be correlating to this.
You go with your one.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Oh cool cool spoil last my old keep pushing on
athletes and coaches showing personality. We've already touched on that.
Annabelle Sutherland being the new Elise Perry.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Ah, I like that. That's a big inn. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I think I just think she's a star. We love
Elise cte discussion and prevention. Did it go anywhere it
needs to go somewhere?
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Okay, because I think we're going to see a decline
in youth participation in some of these contact sports unless
we do something about it. And particularly I look at
the AFL. We're introducing more clubs, but we need more
talent coming through. And hypothetically, as a parent of two
young boys who might want to play contact sport, knowing
what we know, it's really difficult to think of your
(20:21):
kid getting tackled in their head, hitting the ground and you,
as a responsible parent, making that choice for them to participate,
unless you can see that changes are being made. Because
this is very very real.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
You know what could help with that? Sin Bins in
the AFL now, just bringing it back, just bringing it back,
just bringing it back. It's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Last, but not least Kyrie in Greening, Oh my god,
do it now? Do it now? Have him walk out
in La on his broken ACL which apparently he did overnight.
I was like, well that's stuff, smilist. But Kyrie Irving
playing for the Boomers if you're a yeah, I understand
why you're against it, because, let's be honest, not a
(21:00):
molecule of that man identifies as Australian. He left here
when he was two, his dad was Australian. Sure, he's
played for the USA in.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
One gold, but arguably he's the most Australian of us
all because we claim him. You're born here, half bought,
like the most Russell Crowe, Salah Neil far Lap, like
he's ours, he is our. So I like it.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
I like that he wants to join the Boomers out
of spite, which makes me think because he's like team
USO over look me, look at me now, and do
you know who plays well? Athletes that are jaded and
don't be wrong. I know that we've got amazing Josh Green,
Josh Giddy. We've also got the great Barrier thief in
Dyson Daniels. Tell me there's a better nickname in world sport.
(21:45):
You can't. We've got these young players coming through that
I think is so strong. But imagine they get to
learn from Akyrie because he could potentially dare I say it,
Patty Mills, who knows if he's going to make it
to LA. We've got these aging players and.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Kyrie aging as well.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Yeah, but he's Kyrie. He's like Oprah. He just needs
one name, Kyrie. Anyway, as you can't tell, I'm for it. Yeah,
but anyway, I'm with it.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I agree. I'll have you. I'll have that.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Have you got docos out?
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Okay? So yeah, do we begin the outs?
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:19):
We begin the outs. Here we go.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
We might find out the list.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
This could be our first fight. Yep. Okay, here we are.
So I've put and I've written it with you in
mind sporting docos asterisk. Not every team on Earth deserves
the last dance drive to survive treatment. They don't. They
just don't. You are taking away the magic of that concept.
If every single under fifteen fourteen can have someone with
(22:46):
a GoPro like no, no, no, no, no, we need
to keep it special. The asterisk is a Germy asterisk
because it says sprint is obviously it's fitted. Noah Lyles
is always in my other outs.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
I really value being considered. Thank you out.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
This is gonna sound weird with where how I began
my in's list. Nathan Cleary out, get out, Get out
with your form, get out with your talent, get out
with just winning absolutely everything. Okay, I've had enough. I've
had it absolute enough. All right, while you're gonna be
the greatest player again in the league this year, just don't, maybe,
just don't.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Will he be an a mortal?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Yes, he's on his ways one hundred percent on his way,
which is a wild call for me because to say
this early on in his career, he's still likes four
years of age.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Like it is not like AFL Hall of Fame. This
is like immortals. Is a whole difference.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
He's he's on his way. He is that good, he
is that good. His conversions from the sideline in Vegas,
I was like, get out, get it, like he just
every aspect of his game is amazing. It's annoying. Yeah, out,
y'are out, bubb You can't have it all. Now, I
think you're gonna like this one very important out from me.
Stay with me here, Yannick Sinner in baseball caps, Let
(24:00):
the red locks fly? Why are you hiding your gorgeous hair?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Obviously this apide from drug testing, George, he's a heart
feat away from shaving it.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Are you kidding Ben Cousin style? Obviously this is post ban.
He can come back get But how your mentoring baseball
caps off him?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
How's he meant to look Gucci preppy without a cap?
Speaker 1 (24:27):
You know? How he looks even more Gucci preppy with
that hair, with that hair and that beautiful bone structure. Okay,
that's that's my that's my take.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
All right.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
We might get into the cynodoping in tennis that could happen,
ha ha, but we should also talk about the baseball caps. Now. Wow,
I've actually written this in a stream of consciousness that
flows quite nicely if I do so so myself. My
next out mullets.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Yeah gone, and that weird ear shaving.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
I've said they're done, surely, Sure, they're done.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
No, but you know when it's like their hair is
scared of their and I have given just like a
good inch. Yeah, clearance I do. It's like the relaxed
Dustin Martins.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
It can go, it can go, it can go. Like
and when I say that, you know, when someone's like, yeah,
what have you been doing, it's like, oh, I finished Netflix,
We've finished mullets, Like there cannot be anymore. There cannot
be any more iterations. You're out. In twenty twenty five,
archaic misogynistic analysis of women's sport. Yeah, that's gone. That's gone.
We've had enough of it. We want critical analysis, serious
(25:28):
critical analysis. Keep all of your other things, extraneous comments
to yourself on from that. The phrase women's sport out, Yes,
it's always out you and I've said that on this
podcast before. We loathe it. It can be women in sport,
women's sport. It's just sport, sick of it, sick of it.
So that's out hockball.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Or we can give you men's sport if you want.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah, we can talk about men's sport one hundred percent hockball.
The phrase I've said out because the phrase means nothing,
not the style of play, like the style of play
for the whole great hockball, disgusting, get out. I don't
want it. I don't want the name. It has merch
with it on it. I was like, you are wearing
that in public with me?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Get out?
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Get out? I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Robert, who's filthy? He's not the number one ticket holder.
Look sorry, but it's one of those ones that no
one publicly will confirm what hockball means. Yes, and I
just think it's unnecessary.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
It's so unnecessary. It's so unecessary. If you're getting flagged
for writing hackball on Instagram caption and it says no,
some of this might be offensive that may have happened
to Robert before purely using that word. I think we
don't need it, and we don't need it on merch.
Let's just circle back to good merch that's in not
this one toxic fan behavior out out a league. Hello,
(26:46):
but more so more so, I think this parasocial dynamic
that fans have now with athletes, athletes are the new celebrities.
We saw it most recently with Emma Radikhanu who was
playing a match. Yes, and there was a stalker in
the crowd.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Which can you imagine how terrifying it is knowing that
someone wants to find you and they can look up
a schedule to find exactly where you.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Are, exactly exactly.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
I'm just terrifying.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
It's terrible. You can support your players, you can love
your favorite players, but you have to have some sense
of reality that they're not your friend. And also, except
for everyone who I love, they're my best friend.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
If you gamble and lose because of that player out
is sliding into their DMS abusing them. Yes, like you sad,
sad human beings, and you're seeing more often players to
sharing it now. Yeah, yeah, Dan Christian recently just shared
some of the hate that he was getting. It's crazy
in cricket and every The guy then replied being like,
(27:40):
you can't share this, and it's like, well, you can't
come into my direct messages saying that you're going to
hurt my family because I may have had a bad game,
Like what is what are you?
Speaker 1 (27:48):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Adult behavior?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Last couple from me out the NRL bunker and in brackets,
I've called it useless. Why do you get everything wrong?
It's inexplicable. You have so many cameras. I can watch
and see what's going on from my loungry.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
The NL final last year wasn't going.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Nerl bunker out, and then I finished off with the
very serious one heels They're out for all time, goodbye,
just in a life, just heels, just heels. I just
want to make that stand. Is the hill that I'm
going to die on? No, he'lls not.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
The heel You're going to die on the hill, the
hill you're gonna die on? All right? My out's tall
poppy syndrome. Oh, if we're going to allow people to
have personality, we can't cut them down.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Love that.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
We can't say that we want this American style. Let
us in, show us who you are and then go,
but don't show us that much who you are. So
you're Sam constious, Let him be Sam constious. Yep, okay,
because we need to have people that we can talk about.
And initially I'll be the first to say, I'm a
bit of a funny duddy with this stuff. So funny duddy. Wow.
Our old one person said wow, okay. But when he
(28:57):
wore sneakers to meet the PM, yes, my initial response
is to go, mate, like put on and some shoes
the way that everyone else does. And then I just went,
you know what, it's giving me something to talk about,
and I feel like I know you better to know
that you wear green stampers. That's okay, that's okay, it's okay. Also,
this is the Alona mar of it all right?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Yes, she was asked about, you know, getting imposter syndrome,
and she was just like, I don't have that.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Who is she? What's that? I don't sensational?
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Yeah? How do you overcome imposter syndrome?
Speaker 3 (29:29):
I don't have that?
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Really?
Speaker 1 (29:31):
No, I don't know what that it's you don't feel
like you deserve it? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:36):
I don't think I have it?
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Okay, how is that possible? I feel like imposter syndrome
ruins my life Sometimes I feel like I deserve what
I've gotten. Incredible, incredible from HER's in.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
We both did, but she's an in. Oh this is
my number one bug bear in sport. Oh wow, significant wow.
Overuse of the term star. If I have to look
up the phonetics, I'll give you a hot tip. They're
not a star, Oh my gosh. And is it clear
that I'm no longer working at commercial television. You cannot
(30:11):
tease to every break saying a star midfielder is out
for one of our main teams and then have it
be someone who's never played the game. Yeah yeah, yeah,
yah yah yeah drop unless unless they've made all Australian.
In my head, the star is loose.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
It's like the term using the term hero.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
It's lazy. You're like, it's a lazy this one. Okay,
I've got this is a bit more high problem, convenient morality.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Oh, explain it to me.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Live golf. Oh yeah, Australia playing Afghanistan in ICC events
but refusing to do bilateral competitions.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Players that get four thousand chances that are still having
discussions with VFL clubs when their behavior towards women is despicable, despicable,
and they've been given a million. Of course, I don't
even want to mention his name, but there are certain
players that shouldn't get another chance of the AFL period
because whether you like it or not, these people go
(31:09):
on to be idols. As soon as you wear a guernsey,
you are looked up to by young children, and some
people don't get another chance at that when they have
threatened and abused women, particularly for a long period of time.
That is a hill that I will die on. But
I just think you cannot have a violence against women
awareness round. Oh yes, and then say, oh, we can't
(31:30):
close the door on this guy. You can and you
absolutely need to.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
I'm intrigued to see if not even just the AFL,
but if all codes could adhere to that this year.
That's interesting.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
But live Golf's another one. Right, there was all this
and then it's because it's just become part of the normality.
Now everyone's like, oh, lives fun. I'm like, remember how
problematic this was because of the people that we're taking
money from. But they have DJs, so it seems fun. Yeah,
And don't get me wrong, it does seem fun. But
I just think that there has to be if you're
(32:00):
going to make a stance against something, you can't eventually
go all right, okay, we'll give it another shot.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
There's a butt. It's like yeah, yeah, yeah, but yeah out.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Cyclonic weather ruining the first round of honestly opening round.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Scipline Alfred did you know apparently was meant to be
called cyclone Anthony but Albania that we can't do that?
Speaker 2 (32:22):
Is that fat?
Speaker 1 (32:23):
I think that's true. I think that's true.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
I think that's true.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Well, I've heard it. I've heard it at the water
cooler and also said.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Because then I believe that.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
I mean, well I think it was said by Samuel Thornton,
so we also because I was like, that is that
is an actual storyline from one of my favorite shows
of all time, Veep, when president is Julia Louis Dreyfors
and she's the vice president and she was there being
the president as there was a hurricane Selena was coming
and that's her name, and she was just like in
a cupboard with her advisor being like, you gotta.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
Kill it, get rid of it. Was it actually meant
to be Anthony?
Speaker 1 (32:59):
That is we've got producing team, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can you imagine Albo?
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (33:07):
So just you know what's not good?
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Speaking of Albow, do you know there was an article
in The Australian where we bookended him what do you mean?
As in they had a certain now out of a
job shock jocks speaking poorly about the Matilda's. They had
a quote from Georgie Tunney, a quote from the PM
and then a quote from me and I just feel like,
no matter which way you cut that one of us,
you saved the PM. I really enjoyed that. I was like,
(33:35):
you're in a two good sports sandwich Anthony you cyclone you,
I didn't know that that's hilarious and that checks out.
But I do think it's the most get rid of
opening round Round zero.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
I can't it's the worst in the AFL.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
I demand the right to watch my team play. I
know it's traditional, but I want to sit down and
watch Carlton and Tigers, no matter how lopsided that contest
or affair.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Maybe yeah, okay, gotcha, I do. I'm with you. I'm
with you out Sadly, I think if a BYuT default,
they're an in but out with psychlonic conditions games.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
I've just got booing with eight o's. I just don't
think we need to boom.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
Okay, you can.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Don't have to cheer for people, but you don't have
to boot.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
People are in the workplace, they're having a crack call
me woke, whatever performative round dedications. I think everyone knows
how we feel about the domestic. Like I just think,
unless it's really going to stand for something and there's
education behind it, you know, just don't do it. Ridiculous
bands for doping are out, so as much as we
(34:42):
can all question what's happening with the ANIX sinner. I
think the ban actually befits the crime at this point,
so as much as everyone might go, that's ridiculous, Usually
it gets slapped with two years. Well maybe we've just
been a shift in the tide where we're going to
see more reasonable bands for sports people.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
Okay, okay for it.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
It was a performance enhancing shoeies see never.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Out, see out, never never in again.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
They were fading in twenty twenty four. Now I reserve
the right that if you drink from a shoot, to
call you a Darrow.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
Yeah, oh no, because I can see it. Like imagine
if Oscopiastri does win, you know he's going to do
a shoey.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
No, it's not, it's not. It's Danny's leave it to Danny.
Danny can do anything, you know what.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
I love Daniel Ricardo and he gave a lot of
joy to a lot of people, but he also should
be arrested and put.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
To the shoey. The shoey especially, I can't driving for
that long. Can you imagine how filthy it's so hot
in there, the sweat I feel like anyway, if you
can't tell, I really feel strongly about this. A billion
chances after despicable behavior. He's out, he's out. Yes, what
what were your headlines there? That's that's both of ours.
(35:55):
I think.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Well, I think we've solved well sport is what I've Yeah,
just printed print it. We will actually, I think we
will put these lists up on our Instagram page. Yeahs
already follow us?
Speaker 2 (36:05):
How much you love mine? More than Georgia Excu.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
I don't think so, heels. I think I'll have an
army behind me with those on the end.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
You can't have Nathan Cleary in both.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
If it makes sense, I can, and I've done it.
I think you'll find I have done it. So yes,
let us know what are your ins and outs? We
would love to know your ins and outs for twenty
twenty five when it comes to sport, when it comes
to your life as well, just let us know. As always,
you can follow us on at too Good Sports.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
I've got a fun fact, yes, and he was one
of my inns. You'd be surprised that no track and
field featured in my inns wells because I was saving
it for the fun fact. Because we have a prodigy.
His name is Gout. Gout He's only seventeen years young.
We have Noah Larles talking about him, You say Bolt
talking about him. And the reason why is he's broken
the two hundred meter record in Australia with a blistering
(36:52):
pace of twenty point zero four seconds. So that records
too for fifty six joys. But I fun fact.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
That's a good fun fact.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
His name's not calcult, what is it? It's what what
the pronunciation we've been and this is his dad explaining why.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
Okay, I want to be g u.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
Ot some when I see people called God God, I'm
not really happy for it. When we come from Sudan,
I know how to expect what but the man when
he did the dark Man, he makes the letters. Yeah,
but sometime I was unhurried. So nothing I can do.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
You know.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
The Australian people, they want to make it short name.
That's why they call God God. But it's not her
for bread name because I know God God is a
disease name. But I don't want myself to be called
the ze name. His name is God. He's got to be.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
G u Ot.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
I call God God. I'm not really happy for it.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Good good what what? So phonetics is g w O T.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
You're welcome, listeners, because this man is going to win
Olympic golds in the future, so let us just stamp out.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
Yeah, the poor guy's like gout, oh Google, gout. No,
that's not what I called my son. Let me just
can we change that back?
Speaker 1 (38:13):
What?
Speaker 2 (38:14):
Go?
Speaker 1 (38:14):
What?
Speaker 2 (38:15):
What? What? So love this, listeners, Yes, you can be the enlightened.
His name is not coutcout, as you will hear across networks,
because once things are out in the ethos, it's.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Very hard to bring them, hard to take him back.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
But given he's seventeen, I don't want him to have
to live with it and his poor dad being like,
have you ever gone through customs? Probably not, it's busy.
They're mixing up the form. So we just wanted to
move country. Let it beat.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Quat quat love it. That's it in Stone we know
from now on, and so whenever anyone comes at us,
because we know you will, we love you listeners, but
you always come through the back guys, and it's goutcout.
Would I cut up?
Speaker 2 (38:52):
No, it's not, it's really not.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
Oh I'm glad that we've solved that, and we've solved
everything that's happening in sport in twenty twenty five. It's
good to be back. We've come in hot, We've come
in real hot, real hot as usual. Thank you so much,
Gelmy thank you to our producers. Too Good Sports is
an iHeart production. We're going to catch you next week,
but until be Good Sports
Here at Two Good Sports, we would like to acknowledge
the traditional owners of the land on which we record
this podcast. There were innerie people. This land was never seated,
always was always will be Hello, Hello, Hello, and the
avenue two Good Sports Sports. He is told differently.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
I'm Georgie Tanner and I'm Abbe Jelmy And can you
believe George, We're back.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
We're back, We're back. Oh, I am so excited to
kick off season three of Two Good Sports. And Jelmy,
what have you been doing? Because we have had a
little bit of an off season. We've been stretching.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I mean, it's been a pretty quiet off season for
me what I did at change jobs, had a child.
But other than that, you know, not much actually really genuinely,
not much else has been happening.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
No, we dance card full though, I think with the
new job and the new child, so I think.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Welcome little Ollie into the world. So Oliver Herb, Oliver
Herb he is I've been doing that parent thing where
I've been like, yeah, he's twelve weeks. I've been saying
that for apparently twelve weeks. Because he's sixteen weeks now,
he's not which parents talking weeks he's four months let's
just break that.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
I mean, I think louis your eldest. I think he's
six months old. So it's mental now.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
So we've survived two under two and probably more relevant
to this podcast, Let's be honest. Joined ABC as offside
as host is just I mean, it's basically an extrapolation
of this podcast. Getting to talk about the big issues
in sport with an expert panel. It's a dream, dream gig.
And when you're following the likes of of course you're
Jared Witley, You're Kelly Underwood, Mary Cassidy, I know, way
(01:35):
at the start like icons of Australian media, a litt
alone Australian sports media. So it was a big old
chair to film. I mean was about two weeks postpardon
when I interviewed for it. Sure, sure, but that's just
how this world works.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
How fun to be an icon because now you're one.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Oh, I don't think you inherently when you're in the seat,
you just don't get.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
To pretty sure, that's how it works.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I think Kelly's now in OAM.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Well, so when I got letter from the King telling
me that there's an honorary maybe I'll get to lean in,
but no, very humbled and loving it so far.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
It's very, very fun. You've packed a lot in. What
have I done in the off season? I did move house? Yes, yes,
so that was my Everest? And did she make it
all the way down again? I don't know. We're still
we're still unpacking unpacking. Honestly, it's got to the stage
where I'm like, ah, those boxes. Turns out we have
an attic where I've managed to stuff them. I've never
had an attic before, and I'm like, I'm not gonna
(02:29):
unpack that. I'm just gonna put them up there.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Oh yeah, it's great. It's great. I mean, it's not
great to have a mental one because that show that
breaks down, but it is good depth some one where
you can shove things that sounds like you're moving up
in life, but drop some names. Who you like. I mean,
very recently Billie Eilish, Yeah, who else chattered to?
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Billy was the biggest one. Probably recently tried to ice
Cube as well. Who else have I been chatting to?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Billy said you smell nice, which you can't smell people
through podcasts. Georgie is one of those people that has
fragrance of wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
That's right, I do. I do love a fragrance and
did I specifically choose fragrance because I thought, you know,
he would like this, Billy, and she bloody well did
and I nailed it. So it was at the end
of the interview and we're getting our little photo. Now
this is not just I mean, yes, she did love me, sorry,
she did love me, but everyone got a photo.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Billy didn't request it.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah so me. No, other people may
have got photos with her too. But anyway, during my
photo with Billy, she was just like, you smell amazing.
What is that?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
And I was like, what was it?
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Pheromones? It was just me Actually, no, no, no, it's
d S and Durga. I don't know what. Now that
is the fragrance. Every time I tell people I don't
know what, they're like, Okay, what gatekeeping bloody fragrance.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
That's a wild I don't know, I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
But that is Billy Eilish's favorite scent. And she was
just divine, just divine, you know what.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
She's good sport We should probably give some sporty chat.
We both went to the tennis.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Oh yes, we did we talked to ash Party.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Yeah, oh yeah, we did talk to eld.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
We Oh yeah that business.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yes, women in sport, we did enjoy that. Thank you, Emirates.
But what was your take on the OS Open?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I mean, once again, incredible event, incredible event in light
of events that have happened after that. Fascinating. Isn't it
a fascinating time, especially in the men's game.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I found the men's finals so uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I mean, I not I mean, I don't want to
just absolutely criticize the entire competition. I found the final
of the men's game boring. I found the women's finals
so entertaining. It was amazing, And quite often we would
have the opposite discussion, so we'd be like, oh, yeah,
the women's game was it was okay, the final it
was alright, it was all right, but there's usually a
clear winner.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
This one exceptional Madison keys that she had And yeah, excenta.
Of course we are going to we're getting into deep
dive territory.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
We might on that down the track becoming up.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
It is going to be one of the big inns
I think of twenty twenty five discussing doping in sport.
But what that leads us to what is going to
be the outshat today. We're going ins and outs for
twenty twenty five, hi brow, low brown, everything in between
that's coming up next.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Jellm me something that is just inescapable. Every single time
and New Year kicks off? Are these ins and outs lists?
And while I've not loved them from other outlets, oh,
you best believe I was excited to hear ours.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
I was just about to say, when you're like, let's
do our ins and outslets, I was like, gott, I
hate those, Yeah, sure, sure, because I just feel like
it's so self serving to be like I am the
deciding body of what is in, what is out? But
for us funny and the other point I would like
to hear yours. So I sport as a whole, but
obviously more leaning into the codes that we enjoy.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Yes, yes, definitely and always there's going to be some curveballs.
There's going to be a few curveballs popping up in mind.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
We don't know each other's we've done individual ones. Will
there be overlap more than likely, But Georgie, it's a
fresh year, it's a fresh season twenty twenty five. It's
going to be bigger than better. Do we say that
every year? Sure? But I believe it. So hit me,
what are your inns for twenty twenty five?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
My number one in Nathan Cleary?
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Oh god, I know, not something different.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Something different. No, look, I just from what I saw
over in Vegas the NRL's opening round confirmed he's going
to be an absolute superstar once again. Was there that
much doubt that it would happen again? I mean, you know,
you can live in hope, you can live in hope
that he might just have a slightly average, a slightly
average game. Doesn't seem like it's going to be happening
(06:53):
this year. So Nathan Cleary, the Penrith Panthers superstar who
broke my heart in the Grand File against the Prisin
Broncos a couple of years ago, I mean, I'm over it.
I'm over it. I never bring it up. Unfortunately, I
think he is I mean, unfortunately for Penrith Pans, but
unfortunately for myself as the Queens and found a Broncos fan.
I think he is very much in. He's not going anywhere.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Penrith's still in because they've had some big off seasons
changes they are.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Oh I was hoping that they weren't going to be
To be honest, I was like, come on, share it round,
share the skill around, share the passion round, share the
form around. They'll be there. They'll be a top four side.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
No god, okay, next Oscar Pistre oh yeah, massive in
yeah yeah, yeah yeah, but I've never been more in.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Yes, he is in the best car heading into the
Australian Grand Prix, and I think that we are going
to see him on podium after podium after podium this season.
What this is a two pronged dare I say a
compound in? So we have Oscar Piastre is going to
be in and therefore by default stay with me. Lando
Norris's villain arc, so his teammate at McLaren. Oh yeah,
(07:59):
not Lando, Lando the villain arc. Has it gone anywhere? No,
but the green Goblin of our dreams. He is going
to be back and he is going to be featuring
as the side eye man.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
If the was an animal, he'd be a squirrel. But
you can't hate him, you know you can't.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
You love it. I love the pettiness. I love the
pettiness that just drips from every pore of him and
he seems to just be like, hmm, okay, just waiting
in the wings. I just love it and I cannot
wait for the time when McLaren says Lando let oscar pass.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
In saying that you and I are going to an
event with Lando next week, which you won't be going petty.
You'll be like, Hi, can I have a photo? I
smell nice?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
I smell nice. I smell nice. I'll lean in. I'll
lean in with the fragrance just wafted out.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
That's just what context Georgie did. Try to get a
chat with Lando, and no one has ever given a
don't argue more.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, he was channeling Dustin Martin to be honest.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Just did a right walk by. Okay, what's next?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Okay next. I think this is a very important one.
I think you and I are both aligned here. Critical
analysis of women's thought bang. Yes, so a lot of
times I think women's but now we are demanding that
it be taken seriously and therefore what comes with that
is proper analysis of where.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
It's at, and that can be critical and it's allowed
to be critical. And we saw that during the women's ashes,
where the English side got absolutely served in the media
here and abroad, essentially saying you cannot rock up to
international competition and be this underpath. There are questions about
their fitness. If you don't perform, you get criticized in
the same way the email peers do. And we love that, Yes,
(09:29):
we love that.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
So therefore, for me, I am looking to see a
lot more analysis of women's sport, just because as women's
sport becomes more and more prominent and lots more people
go to the games and go to these events and
support by actually being there bums on seats, that is
what I'm saying is in as well. But with that
obviously comes the constructive let's call it constructive criticism too.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
This is a.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Controversial one for me, but I like it. The sinbin
for the AFL, bring it in, Bring it in. I
know it's not in, but I'm saying I wanted him.
I want them to be a sinbin for the AFL.
I would love that.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Interesting.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
What do you think I haven't even heard.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
I've been listening to a lot of talk back radio
here in Melbourne. I haven't heard anyone else say bring
the sinbin in. So it is a new concept that
I haven't considered. But I mean particularly when we're thinking
about cte yes and trying to put players off that
sort of head high contact. If it's clearly deliberate, if
it's alla Reese Walsh in Origin, Yeah, well, yeah, you've
(10:29):
got to. I don't mind it.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
I don't see and I'm not saying maybe not ten minutes,
but five minutes. Let's just open up the discussion. I'd
love there to be a talking point about the sinbin
for the AFL. I think ten minutes in AFL slightly
to too much punishment. It's too harsh of a punishment
for a team. But five minutes, if you, you know,
no good onto the side into the naughty corner. I
can see it. I can see it.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
I've been parenting too long because all I can think
of is like, how long should you send the kitchen
the room for the sinbin? Yeah, five minutes. I think
they've lent the lesson. You can come back out apologize.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, and then you're done. It's so app that you
mentioned Reese Welsh the love of my life.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Maybe because.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
One of my inns nail polished on footy players. Yeah,
and I've put Hello Reese with a love heart emoji.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Also, Harry Garsard.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Yes, Harry Garside, I'm into it, into it. I just
love it when you are going to see personality which
brings me to another in personalities, I want more nick
curios style vibes from the athletes. Okay, let's be interesting.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Well I'm going to cross that one off my list.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
You had it.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, I said, coaches and athletes showing personality five exclamations.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah, I've got brackets. Please, for the love of God.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Yeah, I think we're getting there. I think we're getting
We're going to have less one week at a time.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Yeah, Okay, do you think so?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
I think so, Young Hawks, I've got my personality endorsements.
You've got to you've got to show different bizazz to
get brands on board.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah. Howcball may come up in one of my other
lists today. Also in soccer US Young Soccer Use and
I've got a little explainer here for our listeners that
they are the male Matilda's, just in case you don't
know who the soccer Us are. That's the male Matilda's.
Are you womenplaining, I'm women's plaining. I am women explaining.
And I think that twenty twenty five where you're going
(12:16):
to see a rise, and this is fresh off the
back of the Young Soccer Roose winning. I think it
was the Asian Cup.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
They did so well it was yea, I was about
to say it was our first Age division win in Asia.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Yeah, incredible. Out of nowhere.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
The Green shoots all look good. They just need to
keep growing.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
And I think that we're going to see some positive
results for the soccer US as they are chasing that
direct qualification to the World Cup. So I think that
they are going to be back in our headlines. I've
only got a couple more in my inns. Inns, good merch.
For the love of God, please give us good merch.
I'm sick of the ugly prince. I'm sick of the
clashing like patterns and all of this, Like, can we
(12:56):
just buy a nice looking bucket hat?
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Please? So many that correlate to keep going.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Female owners of sporting teams. Yes, yes, So we've got
Natalie Portman, Serena Williams, Williams most recently the WNBA team
in Canada. So I am so excited that that seems
to be a trend that is happening. That is a
very big inn for me. That is my list here
we go, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
I just love that you finish on your note. Mine
might be a little bit more low brown because my
inn is pink girns. Do you know what that is,
biable merchant, because the Sons have recently done their away
kit in the pink, and I remember watching the Panthers
in their pink and going, well, that's clever.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, oh, I think Panthers jersey I am for which
is almost one of my favorite jerseys.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
So I just you know again, I promise it does
get a little bit more. But also as a follow
on anyone but Penrith, my inn for five is anyone
but Penrith, because as a journalist it's really hard without
bringing out your hand to count back to back to
back to back.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Yeah it is to back. Yeah, we can't have five.
We can't have a five. We can't have a five.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Pete, it's greedy, not great for the game.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
No, it isn't another in Bruce, oh, Bruce.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
And commentary choice Okay, because for the first time in
the AFL, we're going to have both Fox and seven
providing commentary, so it's not just going to be your
Fox team doing the intro to the game and then
you get your seven callers. Essentially it is head to
head and they are throwing everything in the kitchen. See
hence Bruce mcaveney coming out of retirement like a phoenix
(14:35):
from the ashes. For the love of God, have him
do the brown low.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Yes, yes, he's the only way, to be honest, I
think that in that I respect to everyone who is
in part of those commentary teams. You need a Bruce
to be able to compete with Fox and all of
the games that they are just broadcasting this year.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
So this is an out that needed to be included
in my inn to follow up that conversation in that
free to air AFL on Saturdays is out.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
It's out.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah, So I think that it's been lost in the
wash of this four point five billion dollar deal that
people are going to sit down to watch their AFL
that they know is on a Saturday afternoon and unless
you are one of the people that has KO or
Foxtel or Fox Sport, you're not going to be able
to watch footy. And that's the first time that our
great game has been behind a paywall on what is
(15:19):
such an appointment day. And understandably Fox have gone Saturday
Saturday with you know, Brownie and Rewolt having a sing
on a piano because they're like, we have every game.
So if you want to not have three soil lates
a week to justify the price that you're going to
be paying to watch footy, well part of.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
That should we say inns? Then for the pubs in
the hospitality industry, because they are going to be overflowing
from people who don't necessarily but Cozy.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Lives, Oh yeah, can we afford to be going out
every Saturday? And my concern is understandably seven is going
to argue for the bigger clubs, yes, to not be hidden,
so the smaller clubs that are already battling to keep
engaging members are going to be behind a paywall. So
fans go, oh well I can't even see him play, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
(16:09):
so the smaller get smaller. I can't hide Collingwood in
that slot.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
It's one of those things though that you won't realize
the true impact of that until it's happening. So good
one from you.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Well, we also know opening round has been washed out,
so I think round one people will realize what's actually
happened because I don't think the outrage has met what
it will actually be because people just don't realize how
much their viewing habits are actually going to change. Yes,
agreed in bombers in the eight oh men's bombers because
we know that our women's side have won a final,
(16:40):
so that stuff. But I reckon the bombers, mate, the eight.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
You can't lie to bomb.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I'm just going to keep coming on the Wallabies. Oh,
the Wallabies is set in a massive in because we
have the British and Irish line tour, but also your
mate Joseph Kuso sulii have I had to learn how
to pronounce that quickly. Yes, I have the cross Coade Hopper,
the highest pay the player in union. Has just been
an absolute master stroke.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
And it was even doubt, never in doubt that he
was going to do well, Oh, never in doubt. It
was like when Israelph Laut, whatever you think about him,
it was like when he was brought over to rugby
union and everyone's like, oh, I mean, it's such a
different game. Will he even be good? Just like the
single handedly like best rugby union player you've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Well, he's also playing positions that he hasn't played since
high school. True, that's how much of a freak this
kid is. I mean, we've already seen what he did
for the Wallaby's making his debut, if you don't mind
in the Code for the Wallabies in front of eighty
thousand hostile fans, in twigger them and being Player of
the Test. It was just ridiculous. So I think get
(17:45):
your Wallabies gurnsy out you all had as a kid,
blow the dust off it and get excited. And also
we have Bash Shrugby enough on this podcast that we
feel the need to say something generally positive about the Code,
putting family first in that well. And this is obviously
off the back of a list that I wrote this morning,
Lucky Neil coming out and saying, well, if the AFL
(18:05):
wanted to move the opening round game to Melbourne, I
wouldn't be going because I've got two young kids at
home and there's a cyclone about to hit my house.
I think that this idea that players just have to
do what is best for the Code as opposed to
what's best for their family. And again I sort of
extrapolate this wider to the Luka Doncic's trade and the
fact that he just got traded had no idea and
(18:27):
within forty eight hours it needs to move to La.
My brain goes to does he have like kids and
a wife that might have her own life, and like,
are these players just chess pieces? And we've seen in
the NRL. The NRL have said, well, the Dolphins are
going to play the bunnies and just get on the.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Plane, and there has been backlash for that, Like I've
called it disgusting because you're going to be left at
home pregnant with two young kids.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
There's a natural disaster hitting and you're taking you're taking
the linesman like the big unit that's gonna help me
sandbag this shit? Absolutely not. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Interesting. Do you think that that is going to hold
for the whole twenty twenty five?
Speaker 2 (19:10):
I don't know, but I really enjoyed that Locke Neil,
who's a two time Brownlow medalist, coming out and saying
I wouldn't be going and I went, you know what,
in I'm about it.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Okay, I like it. I like it.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
I think the Rus go back to back in the AFLW. Yeah,
I think they didn't drop a game. I think it's
a very very pretty in from me behind the scenes documentaries.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Okay, Wow.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
We okay, I'm just buddy, because is that you're out there.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Is an out for me that might be correlating to this.
You go with your one.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Oh cool cool spoil last my old keep pushing on
athletes and coaches showing personality. We've already touched on that.
Annabelle Sutherland being the new Elise Perry.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Ah, I like that. That's a big inn. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I think I just think she's a star. We love
Elise cte discussion and prevention. Did it go anywhere it
needs to go somewhere?
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Okay, because I think we're going to see a decline
in youth participation in some of these contact sports unless
we do something about it. And particularly I look at
the AFL. We're introducing more clubs, but we need more
talent coming through. And hypothetically, as a parent of two
young boys who might want to play contact sport, knowing
what we know, it's really difficult to think of your
(20:21):
kid getting tackled in their head, hitting the ground and you,
as a responsible parent, making that choice for them to participate,
unless you can see that changes are being made. Because
this is very very real.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
You know what could help with that? Sin Bins in
the AFL now, just bringing it back, just bringing it back,
just bringing it back. It's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Last, but not least Kyrie in Greening, Oh my god,
do it now? Do it now? Have him walk out
in La on his broken ACL which apparently he did overnight.
I was like, well that's stuff, smilist. But Kyrie Irving
playing for the Boomers if you're a yeah, I understand
why you're against it, because, let's be honest, not a
(21:00):
molecule of that man identifies as Australian. He left here
when he was two, his dad was Australian. Sure, he's
played for the USA in.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
One gold, but arguably he's the most Australian of us
all because we claim him. You're born here, half bought,
like the most Russell Crowe, Salah Neil far Lap, like
he's ours, he is our. So I like it.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
I like that he wants to join the Boomers out
of spite, which makes me think because he's like team
USO over look me, look at me now, and do
you know who plays well? Athletes that are jaded and
don't be wrong. I know that we've got amazing Josh Green,
Josh Giddy. We've also got the great Barrier thief in
Dyson Daniels. Tell me there's a better nickname in world sport.
(21:45):
You can't. We've got these young players coming through that
I think is so strong. But imagine they get to
learn from Akyrie because he could potentially dare I say it,
Patty Mills, who knows if he's going to make it
to LA. We've got these aging players and.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Kyrie aging as well.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Yeah, but he's Kyrie. He's like Oprah. He just needs
one name, Kyrie. Anyway, as you can't tell, I'm for it. Yeah,
but anyway, I'm with it.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I agree. I'll have you. I'll have that.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Have you got docos out?
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Okay? So yeah, do we begin the outs?
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:19):
We begin the outs. Here we go.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
We might find out the list.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
This could be our first fight. Yep. Okay, here we are.
So I've put and I've written it with you in
mind sporting docos asterisk. Not every team on Earth deserves
the last dance drive to survive treatment. They don't. They
just don't. You are taking away the magic of that concept.
If every single under fifteen fourteen can have someone with
(22:46):
a GoPro like no, no, no, no, no, we need
to keep it special. The asterisk is a Germy asterisk
because it says sprint is obviously it's fitted. Noah Lyles
is always in my other outs.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
I really value being considered. Thank you out.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
This is gonna sound weird with where how I began
my in's list. Nathan Cleary out, get out, Get out
with your form, get out with your talent, get out
with just winning absolutely everything. Okay, I've had enough. I've
had it absolute enough. All right, while you're gonna be
the greatest player again in the league this year, just don't, maybe,
just don't.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Will he be an a mortal?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Yes, he's on his ways one hundred percent on his way,
which is a wild call for me because to say
this early on in his career, he's still likes four
years of age.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Like it is not like AFL Hall of Fame. This
is like immortals. Is a whole difference.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
He's he's on his way. He is that good, he
is that good. His conversions from the sideline in Vegas,
I was like, get out, get it, like he just
every aspect of his game is amazing. It's annoying. Yeah, out,
y'are out, bubb You can't have it all. Now, I
think you're gonna like this one very important out from me.
Stay with me here, Yannick Sinner in baseball caps, Let
(24:00):
the red locks fly? Why are you hiding your gorgeous hair?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Obviously this apide from drug testing, George, he's a heart
feat away from shaving it.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Are you kidding Ben Cousin style? Obviously this is post ban.
He can come back get But how your mentoring baseball
caps off him?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
How's he meant to look Gucci preppy without a cap?
Speaker 1 (24:27):
You know? How he looks even more Gucci preppy with
that hair, with that hair and that beautiful bone structure. Okay,
that's that's my that's my take.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
All right.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
We might get into the cynodoping in tennis that could happen,
ha ha, but we should also talk about the baseball caps. Now. Wow,
I've actually written this in a stream of consciousness that
flows quite nicely if I do so so myself. My
next out mullets.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Yeah gone, and that weird ear shaving.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
I've said they're done, surely, Sure, they're done.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
No, but you know when it's like their hair is
scared of their and I have given just like a
good inch. Yeah, clearance I do. It's like the relaxed
Dustin Martins.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
It can go, it can go, it can go. Like
and when I say that, you know, when someone's like, yeah,
what have you been doing, it's like, oh, I finished Netflix,
We've finished mullets, Like there cannot be anymore. There cannot
be any more iterations. You're out. In twenty twenty five,
archaic misogynistic analysis of women's sport. Yeah, that's gone. That's gone.
We've had enough of it. We want critical analysis, serious
(25:28):
critical analysis. Keep all of your other things, extraneous comments
to yourself on from that. The phrase women's sport out, Yes,
it's always out you and I've said that on this
podcast before. We loathe it. It can be women in sport,
women's sport. It's just sport, sick of it, sick of it.
So that's out hockball.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Or we can give you men's sport if you want.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah, we can talk about men's sport one hundred percent hockball.
The phrase I've said out because the phrase means nothing,
not the style of play, like the style of play
for the whole great hockball, disgusting, get out. I don't
want it. I don't want the name. It has merch
with it on it. I was like, you are wearing
that in public with me?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Get out?
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Get out? I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Robert, who's filthy? He's not the number one ticket holder.
Look sorry, but it's one of those ones that no
one publicly will confirm what hockball means. Yes, and I
just think it's unnecessary.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
It's so unnecessary. It's so unecessary. If you're getting flagged
for writing hackball on Instagram caption and it says no,
some of this might be offensive that may have happened
to Robert before purely using that word. I think we
don't need it, and we don't need it on merch.
Let's just circle back to good merch that's in not
this one toxic fan behavior out out a league. Hello,
(26:46):
but more so more so, I think this parasocial dynamic
that fans have now with athletes, athletes are the new celebrities.
We saw it most recently with Emma Radikhanu who was
playing a match. Yes, and there was a stalker in
the crowd.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Which can you imagine how terrifying it is knowing that
someone wants to find you and they can look up
a schedule to find exactly where you.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Are, exactly exactly.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
I'm just terrifying.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
It's terrible. You can support your players, you can love
your favorite players, but you have to have some sense
of reality that they're not your friend. And also, except
for everyone who I love, they're my best friend.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
If you gamble and lose because of that player out
is sliding into their DMS abusing them. Yes, like you sad,
sad human beings, and you're seeing more often players to
sharing it now. Yeah, yeah, Dan Christian recently just shared
some of the hate that he was getting. It's crazy
in cricket and every The guy then replied being like,
(27:40):
you can't share this, and it's like, well, you can't
come into my direct messages saying that you're going to
hurt my family because I may have had a bad game,
Like what is what are you?
Speaker 1 (27:48):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Adult behavior?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Last couple from me out the NRL bunker and in brackets,
I've called it useless. Why do you get everything wrong?
It's inexplicable. You have so many cameras. I can watch
and see what's going on from my loungry.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
The NL final last year wasn't going.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Nerl bunker out, and then I finished off with the
very serious one heels They're out for all time, goodbye,
just in a life, just heels, just heels. I just
want to make that stand. Is the hill that I'm
going to die on? No, he'lls not.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
The heel You're going to die on the hill, the
hill you're gonna die on? All right? My out's tall
poppy syndrome. Oh, if we're going to allow people to
have personality, we can't cut them down.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Love that.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
We can't say that we want this American style. Let
us in, show us who you are and then go,
but don't show us that much who you are. So
you're Sam constious, Let him be Sam constious. Yep, okay,
because we need to have people that we can talk about.
And initially I'll be the first to say, I'm a
bit of a funny duddy with this stuff. So funny duddy. Wow.
Our old one person said wow, okay. But when he
(28:57):
wore sneakers to meet the PM, yes, my initial response
is to go, mate, like put on and some shoes
the way that everyone else does. And then I just went,
you know what, it's giving me something to talk about,
and I feel like I know you better to know
that you wear green stampers. That's okay, that's okay, it's okay. Also,
this is the Alona mar of it all right?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Yes, she was asked about, you know, getting imposter syndrome,
and she was just like, I don't have that.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Who is she? What's that? I don't sensational?
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Yeah? How do you overcome imposter syndrome?
Speaker 3 (29:29):
I don't have that?
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Really?
Speaker 1 (29:31):
No, I don't know what that it's you don't feel
like you deserve it? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:36):
I don't think I have it?
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Okay, how is that possible? I feel like imposter syndrome
ruins my life Sometimes I feel like I deserve what
I've gotten. Incredible, incredible from HER's in.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
We both did, but she's an in. Oh this is
my number one bug bear in sport. Oh wow, significant wow.
Overuse of the term star. If I have to look
up the phonetics, I'll give you a hot tip. They're
not a star, Oh my gosh. And is it clear
that I'm no longer working at commercial television. You cannot
(30:11):
tease to every break saying a star midfielder is out
for one of our main teams and then have it
be someone who's never played the game. Yeah yeah, yeah,
yah yah yeah drop unless unless they've made all Australian.
In my head, the star is loose.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
It's like the term using the term hero.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
It's lazy. You're like, it's a lazy this one. Okay,
I've got this is a bit more high problem, convenient morality.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Oh, explain it to me.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Live golf. Oh yeah, Australia playing Afghanistan in ICC events
but refusing to do bilateral competitions.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Players that get four thousand chances that are still having
discussions with VFL clubs when their behavior towards women is despicable, despicable,
and they've been given a million. Of course, I don't
even want to mention his name, but there are certain
players that shouldn't get another chance of the AFL period
because whether you like it or not, these people go
(31:09):
on to be idols. As soon as you wear a guernsey,
you are looked up to by young children, and some
people don't get another chance at that when they have
threatened and abused women, particularly for a long period of time.
That is a hill that I will die on. But
I just think you cannot have a violence against women
awareness round. Oh yes, and then say, oh, we can't
(31:30):
close the door on this guy. You can and you
absolutely need to.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
I'm intrigued to see if not even just the AFL,
but if all codes could adhere to that this year.
That's interesting.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
But live Golf's another one. Right, there was all this
and then it's because it's just become part of the normality.
Now everyone's like, oh, lives fun. I'm like, remember how
problematic this was because of the people that we're taking
money from. But they have DJs, so it seems fun. Yeah,
And don't get me wrong, it does seem fun. But
I just think that there has to be if you're
(32:00):
going to make a stance against something, you can't eventually
go all right, okay, we'll give it another shot.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
There's a butt. It's like yeah, yeah, yeah, but yeah out.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Cyclonic weather ruining the first round of honestly opening round.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Scipline Alfred did you know apparently was meant to be
called cyclone Anthony but Albania that we can't do that?
Speaker 2 (32:22):
Is that fat?
Speaker 1 (32:23):
I think that's true. I think that's true.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
I think that's true.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Well, I've heard it. I've heard it at the water
cooler and also said.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Because then I believe that.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
I mean, well I think it was said by Samuel Thornton,
so we also because I was like, that is that
is an actual storyline from one of my favorite shows
of all time, Veep, when president is Julia Louis Dreyfors
and she's the vice president and she was there being
the president as there was a hurricane Selena was coming
and that's her name, and she was just like in
a cupboard with her advisor being like, you gotta.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
Kill it, get rid of it. Was it actually meant
to be Anthony?
Speaker 1 (32:59):
That is we've got producing team, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can you imagine Albo?
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (33:07):
So just you know what's not good?
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Speaking of Albow, do you know there was an article
in The Australian where we bookended him what do you mean?
As in they had a certain now out of a
job shock jocks speaking poorly about the Matilda's. They had
a quote from Georgie Tunney, a quote from the PM
and then a quote from me and I just feel like,
no matter which way you cut that one of us,
you saved the PM. I really enjoyed that. I was like,
(33:35):
you're in a two good sports sandwich Anthony you cyclone you,
I didn't know that that's hilarious and that checks out.
But I do think it's the most get rid of
opening round Round zero.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
I can't it's the worst in the AFL.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
I demand the right to watch my team play. I
know it's traditional, but I want to sit down and
watch Carlton and Tigers, no matter how lopsided that contest
or affair.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Maybe yeah, okay, gotcha, I do. I'm with you. I'm
with you out Sadly, I think if a BYuT default,
they're an in but out with psychlonic conditions games.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
I've just got booing with eight o's. I just don't
think we need to boom.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
Okay, you can.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Don't have to cheer for people, but you don't have
to boot.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
People are in the workplace, they're having a crack call
me woke, whatever performative round dedications. I think everyone knows
how we feel about the domestic. Like I just think,
unless it's really going to stand for something and there's
education behind it, you know, just don't do it. Ridiculous
bands for doping are out, so as much as we
(34:42):
can all question what's happening with the ANIX sinner. I
think the ban actually befits the crime at this point,
so as much as everyone might go, that's ridiculous, Usually
it gets slapped with two years. Well maybe we've just
been a shift in the tide where we're going to
see more reasonable bands for sports people.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
Okay, okay for it.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
It was a performance enhancing shoeies see never.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Out, see out, never never in again.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
They were fading in twenty twenty four. Now I reserve
the right that if you drink from a shoot, to
call you a Darrow.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
Yeah, oh no, because I can see it. Like imagine
if Oscopiastri does win, you know he's going to do
a shoey.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
No, it's not, it's not. It's Danny's leave it to Danny.
Danny can do anything, you know what.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
I love Daniel Ricardo and he gave a lot of
joy to a lot of people, but he also should
be arrested and put.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
To the shoey. The shoey especially, I can't driving for
that long. Can you imagine how filthy it's so hot
in there, the sweat I feel like anyway, if you
can't tell, I really feel strongly about this. A billion
chances after despicable behavior. He's out, he's out. Yes, what
what were your headlines there? That's that's both of ours.
(35:55):
I think.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Well, I think we've solved well sport is what I've Yeah,
just printed print it. We will actually, I think we
will put these lists up on our Instagram page. Yeahs

Speaker 1 (36:09):
I don't think so, heels. I think I'll have an
army behind me with those on the end.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
You can't have Nathan Cleary in both.
Speaker 1 (36:15):

Speaker 2 (36:31):
I've got a fun fact, yes, and he was one
of my inns. You'd be surprised that no track and
field featured in my inns wells because I was saving
it for the fun fact. Because we have a prodigy.
His name is Gout. Gout He's only seventeen years young.
We have Noah Larles talking about him, You say Bolt
talking about him. And the reason why is he's broken
the two hundred meter record in Australia with a blistering
(36:52):
pace of twenty point zero four seconds. So that records
too for fifty six joys. But I fun fact.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
That's a good fun fact.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
His name's not calcult, what is it? It's what what
the pronunciation we've been and this is his dad explaining why.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
Okay, I want to be g u.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
Ot some when I see people called God God, I'm
not really happy for it. When we come from Sudan,
I know how to expect what but the man when
he did the dark Man, he makes the letters. Yeah,
but sometime I was unhurried. So nothing I can do.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
You know.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
The Australian people, they want to make it short name.
That's why they call God God. But it's not her
for bread name because I know God God is a
disease name. But I don't want myself to be called
the ze name. His name is God. He's got to be.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
G u Ot.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
I call God God. I'm not really happy for it.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Good good what what? So phonetics is g w O T.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
You're welcome, listeners, because this man is going to win
Olympic golds in the future, so let us just stamp out.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
Yeah, the poor guy's like gout, oh Google, gout. No,
that's not what I called my son. Let me just
can we change that back?
Speaker 1 (38:13):
What?
Speaker 2 (38:14):
Go?
Speaker 1 (38:14):
What?
Speaker 2 (38:15):
What? What? So love this, listeners, Yes, you can be the enlightened.
His name is not coutcout, as you will hear across networks,
because once things are out in the ethos, it's.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Very hard to bring them, hard to take him back.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
But given he's seventeen, I don't want him to have
to live with it and his poor dad being like,
have you ever gone through customs? Probably not, it's busy.
They're mixing up the form. So we just wanted to
move country. Let it beat.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Quat quat love it. That's it in Stone we know
from now on, and so whenever anyone comes at us,
because we know you will, we love you listeners, but
you always come through the back guys, and it's goutcout.
Would I cut up?
Speaker 2 (38:52):
No, it's not, it's really not.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
Oh I'm glad that we've solved that, and we've solved
everything that's happening in sport in twenty twenty five. It's
good to be back. We've come in hot, We've come
in real hot, real hot as usual. Thank you so much,
