Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The most commercial free music to start your work day
kicks off at nine o'clock. It's one or two non
Hot Tomatoes twenty song music Marathon eight to fifty five
right now with Gaily and Emily J. The city's buzzing.
The city is buzzing and it's been a long and
hard road for the Gold Coast Suns. Damien Hardwick was
recruited to be the coach and he's into his second season.

(00:21):
He's a premiership winning coach and he has said when
he started that the squad was already eighty percent of
that those players could win a premiership and they're just
about to embark on, hopefully the road into playing finals
and we're very excited. We've just got to get through
tonight's game and that's at people's first. We've got a
very good player and a former captain on the line.

(00:44):
We have Twoke Miller on the line. How are you
amaze yourself? Good mate?

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Welcome to the Hot one hot Line.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
We've been struggling with that all morning, mate. We just
wanted to wish the club all the very best from
ourselves and also the Hot Tomato listeners here on the
Gold Coast.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Mates.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
It's a big game tonight, obviously through process, hopefully it's
going to be those inaugural finals.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
Yeah, absolutely, man, I appreciate you guys giving the support
and then you have for a long time. So yeah,
hopefully we're making history to night and pretty excited.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
My gosh, it's so exciting. You're so reserved. Are you
trying to reserve energy?

Speaker 3 (01:23):
Yeah, I've got a long day ahead of me before
I get to get to the star line, so just
reserving that energy at the moment, mate.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
What does it mean to you and the players? Mate?
You've been captain of the club, you are one of
the senior players that's had a very good career and
you've stayed very loyal where you've seen other players come
and go. What does this mean to the club if
you can get over the line tonight and have a
good win.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
I mean, it's what you play footy for, to be fair,
to play finals and win premierships and to be part
of the first team that will have ever done this
and made finals. I think his speaks for itself, to
be honest, it is so I think it's for me
less about what it means for the players and what
it means for the Gold Coast. But there's been people
that have been supporting us for so long, from a

(02:07):
very beginning and have had been starves with that much success.
So I think I think we owe them and the
Gold Coast community some success. Though. It's pretty keen.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Oh you're successful already. It's just so exciting too. What's
your week been like? Like if you've go to the
grocery store and everyone's high fiving you and saying good luck.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
I'll tell you I definitely had a few more people
yelling out to here and stuffing in the street, which
is cool, which is definitely what you want. You know,
go to local cafe and a few people pull up
on you and the guy in the local truck going
path was out the window like things like that. It's
pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Well, at any given time, mate, this is the thing.
It's you are our local team. At any given time
in pre season, we can see you running around our
streets and doing extras and all that sort of thing.
I know, sports science has stopped a lot of that,
but you know, we are very proud you're in our
We see all the players in our cafes and and
out and about, and it is a big deal to

(03:00):
a lot of the supporters.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Yeah, definitely, I mean that's what you want though, like
it's you know, part of it makes it feel like
so much more of a community and like everyone's on
the journey with you. So yeah, I mean it's come
a long way from probably, you know, ten years ago
when I first got you, but it's bloody exciting now.
I'm absolutely loving it.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Oh my gosh, we're so excited. And hope all your
families are there tonight cheering you on as well. They
must be getting excited to thank you for calling.

Speaker 3 (03:23):

Speaker 3 (03:32):
