Speaker 1 (00:00):
From the rugby field to the rotary shed. It's the
Country Sport Breakfast with Brian Kelly on Gold Sport.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
I come from the dream time, from the dusty red
soil flames. I am the ancient heart, the keeper of
the flame.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Right tiped across the ditch and catch up with our
Australian correspondent Jimmy Doland dimensioned the cricket, the women's cricket.

Speaker 4 (00:33):
Or the netball for quite you're we going to start here, Jim,
Good morning.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Hi Brian, I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Yes, well, we it was a surprise result the tea Twitter.
You'd have to admit that one the Aussie woman being
knocked out by South Africa and then the key he's winning.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Hm.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Yes, well, I've just been looking through the morning dailies
here and that it doesn't get a mention anywhere and
it was not another one of those paywalls here. So
did it really happen?

Speaker 4 (01:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Absolutely, And of course last night in Wellington we won
the first of the Constellation Cup matches and the.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Nipple I got to give you a sniff. We've got
to add an excitement of the series. So I thought,
what happened.

Speaker 4 (01:17):
I thought you'd be like that. I thought you'd be
like that.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Let's start with the bikes at Philip Island and Mark
is making his mark at Philip Island.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, and what a bizarre race it was. He apparently
had a mosquito in his helmet while he's on the
starting line, and he's discarded his visor in an effort
to get it out of there, so one wouldn't bite
him in, two wouldn't annoy him for the race, And
as luck would have it, that visor's just bounced straight
under his rear wheel and when he shit the go button,

(01:49):
he's gone sideways and all of a sudden he's thirteenth
at the first corner. The only good news was that
he stayed upright and then he's just put on a
show that to say why he's one of the best
in the world, where he's worked his way through the field,
setting a new lap record for Philip Island on lap
ninth and away he went took the lead for the

(02:10):
first time with western four laps to go, but it
was fantastic that Juje Martin wasn't going to roll over,
so they were back and forth there for the last
few laps, but he just seemed to sit behind Martin
then preserve his tires by staying upright and he just
saw a couple of mistakes from Martin there took his
chance and the check and flag. And the most incredible
thing is to Caddy taking all the top six places

(02:32):
in the race, leading people like the wooing dog whis
Wayne Gardener to wonder what's going on Hondra. I think
it was eleventh or something might have been their best Wow,
like so just incredible.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yeah, absolutely fantastic. Now let's chat a little bit about cricket.
The fans are desperate for cricket.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
What's happening.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Well, it was a very rare sight at the MCG yesterday.
There were cues of people trying to get in for
a Shefield Shield match. It's the oldest rivalry in Australian cricket.
It helped too that a lot of the Test starts
were about Mitchell Stark and Steve Smith in the new
South Wales side. Now Victoria sent in and Mitchell Stark
made sure that Marcus Harris didn't get an easy start

(03:13):
to try and get that vacant Test open a spot
with Dave Warner's retirement to Stark got him a couple
of times with some short ones and apparently one of
the forearm has left a very decent sized egg there,
but they reckoned to be right to bat in the
second and Stark removes him for twenty six. Harris is
still hopeful of playing against India this summer. Sean Abbott,

(03:35):
he showed he's ready to be one of the if
one of the big guns and needs a rest. In
the five Test series against India, he took four wickets
for New South Wales and we're all looking forward to
today because nineteen year old blues open and Sam Constace
so he'll get a chance at the bat, made a
pair of centuries on debut. He gets to take on
another Test hopeful in Scott Boland, who's the hero of

(03:55):
the mcg w Every time he's played there he's done
incredible things. And tour ends at nine to two fifty nine.
You imagine that Constance will be out there at some
stage this morning if the weather's good, so fingers cross
it can put on a good performance because we're going
to need a couple of in form batsmen or our
bowls bowl like the Kiwis did against India.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yeah, well we're rejoicing in that one the historic win
for New Zealand. Round one of the A League kicked
off on the weekend too, and we again rejoicing in
Auckland with our new team Auckland FC having a first
up win.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah, huge crowd to nil win over a Brisbane team
that wanted to make a mark for the season there.
So that's congratulations to them. Sydney, see everybody's saying that
they're the team to beat this year where they beat
the Wanderers at Wonderland two to one. But I think
Perth glory. Can you believe they're under the pump at
just one round into the season. They were thrashed six '

(04:47):
to one by the MacArthur Bulls last night and to
all those watching it seemed like they threw in the
towel early in that game, although they did crawl back
a goal at one stage. People are thinking, wow, they're
lucky that saved a couple. This could have been eight
or nine mil. But six to one not the ideal
start of the season.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
And we've got Auckland, Aakland you've see actually playing Sydney.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
You see this coming Sunday at go Media Stadium, so
no doubt that the fans will be out on mass again.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
That'll be, yes, a huge test for both teams, I
would imagine, for their credentials for the season ahead. And
fingers cross the massive crowd.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
All right, we'll strap yourself firm more eight minutes away
from a start in the F one Grand Prix out
of the US.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
So great to chat mate, and we'll do it again soon.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
And we're all complaining here that missing from both games
they've dumped some of our favorite sports.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
Oh dear, never mind, all right, we talk soon. I'm deal.
