Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, look who dropped in. It's Shane Crawford.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Hello mate, great to be here. I've only got an
invite to come in. Drive up and down the highway.
I was just waiting to be called in and it's
nice to see everyone.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
We've it on the fire. You're a you're a little
bit far.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
No, I'm not too far.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Where are you?

Speaker 2 (00:20):
I'm just down over the border. Just that's not far
Kingscliff Way.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
Somewhere.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Yeah, Buyer is a bit too far and it's a
bit too earthy for me, whereas Kingscliff you can head
down to the Gold Coast.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
What made you move from Melbourne?

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Like my family, they said you want to come and
I thought, oh, do I really want to go with them?
But yeah, we moved down and we had family and
friends and relatives nearby up the top of New South
Wales and yeah, it's been great. The kids didn't want
to go back. They loved it so much. And I

(00:59):
love it too. I think it's so beautiful. I can't
believe how beautiful. Cool and gatter Rainbow Bay, fingle Heads, Yeah, unbelievable.
And sometimes you go to the beaches and there's no
one around. It's like I've got it all myself. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Yeah, well you finished in two thousand and eight, so
the Sons wouldn't have started by then. If they started
a bit early, that would have been maybe an option
for you.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Everything's an option. But no. I think about the Gold
Coast players, how lucky they are to live in such
an amazing place where you can be a professional athlete.
But you've got amazing beaches and an amazing lifestyle. You
can live along the water, along the rivers or in
the hills, and I'm like, what a place to be

(01:43):
a professional. And that's why they're finally winning, and that's
why they're going to make the finals for the first time,
which would be good.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
Will you go for then? Well I go for.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Hawthorne because that was also a team I played for forever. Yeah,
but my second team is the Gold Coast Son It is, Yeah,
it is because there's a few ex Hawthorne people. The
coach who was at Hawthorne when I was there towards
the end, he was an assistant coach, Damian Hardwick, and
then the football manager Mark Evans. He was involved with
our football club too, so there's a little bit of

(02:12):
a connection there.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
But here because you've got something to plug.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
The House of Wellness, which is on Channel seven, got
to think of what times eight thirty seven and seven
plus with Melissa Doyle, who did Sunrise for thirteen years.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Didn't she like you guys, didn't she?

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yeah, and now she has to work with me.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
But I want someone with hair, she said, she said,
can we have a.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
Bit of fun? And that's what we do. Like it's
a health and wellness show, but it's pretty much like
a Tonight show. No, it's been good to just learn
lots of different things. I think. I think we talk
about menopause this week, which is a bit of a
scary subject for men. But I learned that there's so
much that men can actually learn and understand and get
their head around it and not be so scared in

(02:58):
the corner.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Actually called hiding. I do a lot of it at
the moment.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
We went to Draculas for the launch of their new
show and my husband was all excited with the baby
sit the date night and he was like, oh, you know,
after after the show.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
We might you know, get lucky.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
And I said, yeah, if you don't annoy me, he said, right,
I'll breathe softly.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
Then everyone everyone driving along now wants to know what happened.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Breath softly and very heavily, which is half is like,
I did go pole dancing, So I'm a bit of
a guinea pig on this show. So I went pole
dancing with nine mothers. I've never laughed so much and
so the mothers.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
So isn't it.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Oh my goodness, holding yourself upside down and wearing those
heels as hot, I think you just.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Got us now.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
Well, well, plug well, great to have you in mate,
Great to catch up with you, and it's good to
see you sort of up this end. I'm a bit
nervous because.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
I wouldn't do that to you waiting out the front,
but I do tune in and especially school drop off,
so yeah, keep a girl.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
It's great to lift your game.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
