Speaker 1 (00:00):
Just realized too.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's actually Melbourne Cup week this week as well, first
Tuesday of November. Wow, that's just around the corner. That's
snuck up on us, hasn't it all right? Jimmy Darland
joining us morning, jim Bka, I can't believe I quickly
the Melbourne Cups snuck up on us.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Yeah, it'll be Christmas soon too. To your shopping. That's
been too much trouble. Embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Oh, I don't know, don't there'll be a small parcel
in the mail. There's actually fifty one days till Christmas Day. Hey,
let's start across in your nicker the woods drama at
the start of your your summer of cricket.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Yeah. So the tour match between India A. I'm sure
you've heard of Indian and their cricket. At the moment,
Australia won the game by seven wickets. Nathan McSweeney made
eighty eight night out to perhaps get a chance to
open the batting for Australia later on when the Indian
team comes to Australia after having their bums kicked by
(00:53):
New Zealand at home. Well, India A that's come out
to play on the final day in Mackay and the
umpire said, do the scratches on the ball, we're changing
it and you'll be using this one. The Indian wicket
keeper has then said, well we have to use this
ball and the umpire said that's enough, or I'll have
(01:13):
you for de cent. Let's play. You scratch the ball,
we change it. So of course this has got everybody's
injuries because this was heard on the stump Mikes. Cricket
Australia very quick to put out a statement saying the
ball was changed due to deterioration, not scratches on the
ball or yes, changing the ball. So yes, that avoided
(01:36):
an ugly incident because we all know how well the
BCCI take these things, and after what's just happened to
them in India, i'd imagine they're not in a very
good mood anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
So India are and't having a very good time on
the cricket scene.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
At the moment. No, they aren't, and they'll be pretty yeah,
thanks very much for poking to the bear too. I'm
pretty sure they'll cop our river up and be getting
plentying from their fans and they'll arrive in Australia ready
to perform at a much higher level than they showed
against New Zealand. Out summer of cricket really kicks into
high gear when Australia plays a one day against Packet,
(02:09):
three one days against Pakistan, the first ones today at
the mcg Obviously they're hoping they can lure a few
fans who are in town for the Melbourne Cup. So
we'll see Matt Short and Jake Fraser McGirk the new
the opening combination in one day cricket. And Pat Cummins
is back to lead the team after he missed the
successful series in England just last all the months before.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
We'll watched that with interest. Hey, they would rugby League
Tonga into the Pacific Nations Final. That was a hell
of a game against New Zealand on the weekend, winning
by one point.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Yeah, a heart attack material there at the end where
they gave a penalty to New Zealand and when it
was missed the shot at goal, they then decided they
just let the ball go dead instead of running it out.
They gave New Zealand and other Crackshawn Johnson couldn't get
the your goal and it went down to the video
review to see if he was interfered with, they decided no.
(03:05):
So the Australia play Tonga and i'd imagine there's going
to be a very few tongue and fans at Paramatta
Stadium this weekend. And then that means New Zealand play
p ANDNG to avoid relegation from the top tier. Well
to imagine that Kiwis will be a little bit fired
up for that one too, So there's plenty of excitement
of the girls playing too. It's going to be a
big weekend of rugby league, which will be the end
(03:27):
of rugby league. Not far as we said from Christmas, Yeah, you.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Did right there. And as we mentioned, the Melbourne Cup
first Tuesday of November next tomorrow and the underdogs and
the race that stops both nations.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Yep, sunny and twenty four for Melbourne tomorrow, and there's
always a great story. And this is right up there
is the only owners of a Tasmanian bread South Australian
raised mayor. There are motley crew of farmers, stock agents
and publicans. They paid thirty five thousand dollars for their
mayor the map and they're genuinely concerned that should they
(04:04):
win the Melbourne Cup tomorrow they may lose the prestigious
seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars trophy because by their
own admission, they do like a drink and are concerned
that somewhere on a night out they might leave it
in a bar. You also considering considering a covenant for
(04:26):
the Cup, just in case.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I love stories like that, you know, a bit like
the kiwi that won a many years ago, just coming
from a little town north of Wanganui on the west
coast of the North Island and went out and won
the Cup. What a story that was.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Yeah, that's always the ones that you live for.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
You know.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
We get the foreign raiders from Japan and Ireland and
Great Britain, but it's always great when there's some little
one that's raised by a farmer themselves, didn't pen do
much money, but I've got this great horse and community involvement,
and I think that's really what keeps the Melbourne Cup alive.
So I'd love to see another analog story tomorrow, especially
if I've backed at Longlad's.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Brian, you were a lazy five on is it the map?
Is it the map?
Speaker 1 (05:07):
The map?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yep, right, We're onto it, mate, We're onto it. You
and I both good on. You have a great week
and go the map.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
All care in, no responsibility.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Absolutely are a bit wisely. There we go, say Jimmy
Dole and our Australian correspondent here on Gold Sports.
