00:00:25
Speaker 1: To see it's good morning. Tell you Welcome to Thursday on five double A Breakfast, the nineteenth of March. Coming on the program this morning, We're gonna be chatting with the Australian Association of Convenience Stool CEO about the conundrum posed to the petrol industry by the Police Commissioner Grant Stephens, who pretty bluntly on our program is today revealed two things. One petrol drive offs are up given the price of petrol at the pump and the cost of living issues at the moment. And two he's not going to be tasking any more people in investigating this when there is a readily available solution called prepaying. We'll talk about that very shortly. Also, forty starts tonight this round I've lost track. Round zero stuffs up all the thinking it's probably round what too need to need it round two, which means it's the first opportunity that Matt Sammittt is going to be big play at Adelaide over the Crow's official saxophonists. The fact that Crows have an official sexophonist, in my view, is excellent. He'll be on the program after six thirty Today. The PSA, the Public secret Association here in South Australia, are suggesting that the state government should contemplate getting public servants to work from home to ease pressure on the fuel crisis. Will be chatting with their secretary, Charlotte Watson. The greatest commentator in an Australian sporting history, Bruce mcavein. He's going to be on after seven o'clock. We took racing and athletics with Bruce and David. As a kayaking enthusiast, I know you would have been gripped by that remarkable rescue of the seventy three year old bloke was stuck in his kayak overnight that was found alive and well yesterday we'll be chatting about that rescue. Matt Abraham's going to be on with his predictions for the election. It's going to be a big morning good morning to you.
00:02:00
Speaker 4: Good morning, well, good morning listeners. He is one lucky fellow, that old Serbian chap who was out there floating around the other night. But I think, you know, good good on him for being an active step his health.
00:02:13
Speaker 1: He really tested his health.
00:02:14
Speaker 4: He did.
00:02:15
Speaker 1: I liked Peter could cut from seven to asking him what was it like spending the night. It was the night like anyway, too many mosquitoes. That was his review of the evening in the darkness on the water in his kayak.
00:02:28
Speaker 4: It's quite an interesting part of the state there around Middle Beach, because therefore I've been there once years ago, not not I was a kid that we weren't there on our school adventure programs. It's fascinating. There's the bird sanctuary there and you get a lot of migratory birds. But it looks quite desolate when you arrive, like there's no trees, it's all just cleared, and then the waters just suddenly there next to this this levee road. But but yeah, it's I've never gone out overnight on my own in a kayak. It's a you know, I more sort of insure like I'm very excited that Matt Summit is becoming part of the part of the regular home match experience for the Mighty Adelaide Football Club. And we got the name Matt quite well. Last year he got involved in the Andy Driver. He played with the Police Band when we had the ensemble with with the with Angie kicking it off with I'm still standing he had a favorite saxophone solo.
00:03:33
Speaker 1: Folks just thinking there's so many Kirk Pengilly bit of an excess.
00:03:38
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, of course, yeah he was. He was very famous. He's probably one of the most famous Australian sex off on us thought there's a lot of great you know jazz ones like Charles Charlie Parker and Stan Getz, John Coltrane, but in popular music, I reckon it's hard to go past. Probably the most famous sex of home sale is in Station to Station Jerry Rafferty in really really famous bit of music, terrific bit of music that.
00:04:20
Speaker 1: I was going to say that they just crack hot, you know when sometimes you know when batsman sometimes in cricket, they so they're seeing it like a watermelon. That's our producing team at the moment. That esp Yeah, they know that wasn't planned.
00:04:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't plan things with me given that I get in six minutes past six.
00:04:37
Speaker 1: Well, no, they operate on the basis that at any given moment, there's a non zero chance that you're going to mention Jerry Rafferty.
00:04:43
Speaker 4: I mean just playing the averages exactly right. The other one I'm throwing there is Clarence Clements from the Eas Street band jungle Land. I'm Born to Run.
00:04:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's good. You haven't got that one and it's two middle fingers direction. Maybe we should ask in You mentioned you're an inland kayaker and the bloke that I was gonna say came to group, he didn't really, he was rescued in the end. What do you what do you do to stay fit? Exercise wise?
00:05:11
Speaker 4: Folks?
00:05:12
Speaker 1: What do you do?
00:05:12
Speaker 4: What's good? One?
00:05:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe people are out doing that. We know we speak a lot of people who walk through Mariota and along the beach. We've got a group of people that when the alcoholiom's bad, textas and call us each morning because they're doing their morning fitness routine walking along Henley and Grange Beaches. Give us a call, tell us what you do to stay active? Eight double two three, double O double O. Hopefully you never have to be rescued overnight. What are you chuckling about?
00:05:34
Speaker 4: I'm sure Joe Evanston is joking, but I think she's taken port paranoia to a whole new level, saying, well, if you're interviewing the sex softeners for the Crows, does this mean you're gonna have the Parret Brothers on tomorrow? And then we love you can reassure you. We have put in a call from Michael Hudgins and we will keep you posted.
00:05:51
Speaker 1: We do love it excess despite the carping of one of their songs.
00:05:56
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know that song's been real for me, just from over from hearing it too much. There's a lot of great songs you don't want to hear anymore because you hear them all the time, and that that's in that category. I think, Yeah, And what's it? What record is on kick?
00:06:12
Speaker 1: Is it on kick? Most of what a record?
00:06:14
Speaker 7: That?
00:06:14
Speaker 1: It was just an unbelievable record.
00:06:17
Speaker 4: I don't want to be the I like their old stuff better than the new stuff guy, but I reckon Shabars to their best record.
00:06:22

Speaker 4: Will you enjoy the remaining indoor for after your hot workout and have a terrific.
00:09:02
Speaker 12: Day, Thanks Alex.
00:09:05
Speaker 4: Well, this time yesterday we were about to talk to the police commissioner about this thirty seven percent spike in drive offs, which is completely unacceptable but in the current climate probably not overly surprising given the extent to which petrol is jumping.
00:09:21
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what.
00:09:21
Speaker 4: Wolve's been crunching some numbers in the first half hour of the show. It may wor some bad news for you soon on the fuel front. THEA for Curi is great. Blake were spoken with THEA before about the FASCAL situation with illegal tobacco being driven by fuel being driven rather by tobacco. Xis in Australia, but he's also got a huge interest, obviously in the question of petrol retailing and drive offs, given the role that independence play in the petrol industry in Australia. THEO, good morning, mate, thanks for joining us, especially especially so early. What did you make of what the commissioners said that the yet retailers have to take responsibility and start coming up with an upfront payment system.
00:10:05
Speaker 1: Is that feasible and is it easy?
00:10:08
Speaker 11: Look, respectfully, based on the commissioner's comments, I think, you know, he's got a simple solution, but it's not that straightforward to actually operationalize. Now, you know, retailers today can sorry, consumers today can prepay for fuel in an app. But let me put it to you this way, all right, So at the moment, about forty percent of all people that put petrol in at a petrol inconvenience store actually going to the shop and buy something as well. And if I commercialize that, that actually means about three billion dollars in sales of sandwiches and drinks and that type of product. Okay, So the retailers have a significant risk if they effectively put up a wall between when the consumor is putting in their fuel and pay and then basically not coming into the shop. Now, a lot of retailers are doing a lot of work in this space with regard to investing in technology like automatic number plate recognition, so that what happens is if you're a known offender for a drive off, which there are a lot of repeat drive off offenders. When your car arrives on the fore court, it actually triggers an alert to the console operator and they then don't authorize the pump, so that the person someone to come on over the microphone and they'll say, do you mind coming in to pay for your fuel before? Okay, so they know this person is likely to do it again, and in most cases when that happens, the person either a drives off without putting fueling or b comes into the store and prepays. Now, so you know, in simple terms, yes, it could be operationalized. Is it expensive? I mean, it's a systemic change to the way they operate today. But retailers have chosen to use technology as the vehicle to try and deter this, and where automatic number plate recognition is in place, it does work. The problem is unless every one of the seven and a half thousand stores that sell fuel around the country implements the same technology, all that happens is the problem is shifting to other stores in the nearby area.
00:12:39
Speaker 4: So have you got evidence then, coo that like just human behavior being what it is. I mean, people clearly that everyone thinks they're so time poor and frazzled, and often when you are filling up, you're thinking about lost time because you're working on your way to pick your kids up from school or whatever. So people are clearly unlikely to want to pay once up front and then after they've filled up go back into the store and do some purchasing, because I know, every time I go to the serv i probably by myself, a cake or lollies for the kids if it's Friday, you know, lafe of bread or cart and milk. You remember that you need it. But surely would you still be able to get maintain sales by people when they go in upfront to pay for their petrol they might buy other stuff at that point too, or is there a thing where the next is broken? They going up. All I'm doing, I've got one hundred dollars. I'm paying for the petrol, not buying anything else.
00:13:36
Speaker 11: So you know, once you know, petrol is a grudge purchase for everyone. Okay, irrelevant of what the price on the board is, whether it's a dollar fifty it used to be a dollar, whether it's two dollars fifty it used to.
00:13:51
Speaker 4: Be two dollars.
00:13:52
Speaker 11: If you're having to outlay that cash up front. It's not even in your consideration set from a behavior perspective, because that's just human behavior. And what we do know is when stores do have a pre pay option, and a lot of stores do turn a prepay option on at night. Okay, so after of nine o'clock, depending on the area, basically you will drop your instore conversion of fuel plus a purchase in the shop by about half. And now that's anecdotical. It will vary by store depending on what products they have in the store available for sale. But mate, I can tell you now the bulk of petrol and convenience retailers have designed their businesses to be able to provide something on the go, whether it be a drink or a sandwich, or a coffee or a snack, and the margin is in the shop all right. As a retailer, they've designed their stores to be able to no different to any retailer, by the way, everyone applies different principles on how they shop. I mean, if you go into a supermarket today, they've turned the front of the store into a mini convenience store.
00:15:10
Speaker 1: Well, it's the entire business model. Po thank you, Arthea Fakari for the Australian Association of Convenience Stores. It's an interesting discussion. We'll get some of our text and your thoughts on this in a moment on zero before eight zero eight thirteen ninety five top of twenty seven today partly cloudy sixteen point four degrees outside in the city at the moment. Tom Ren's in the five double a breakfast studio as we turn our attention to Sport Carlors Custom Design anyhouse, any style, glutter or garage doors, gliter dot com dot Au Morning Ready.
00:15:35
Speaker 13: Morning Boys Teams night tonight. So looking forward to seeing what the Crows do. Look Mary is a bit of doubt about Toby Murray because he's got a bit of a saw back out of last week. But I think he'll probably play against or be available to play against the Bulldogs tomorrow night. I think they might go Jake's Aligo straight out for Isaac Rankin. That's just my feel for it. So we'll wait and see what the Crows do. Port just a squad that don't play until Sundays, so we'll keep a close eye on that. The matiudas they know who they're going to be playing in the Asian Cup Final. It is going to be Japan, who are probably the pre tournament favorite heading in so that's going to be a tough one on Saturday night.
00:16:12
Speaker 4: That clashes with their election coverage. Because I've really been enjoying the Women's Asia.
00:16:16
Speaker 13: It's been great. It's been really good, and the last two games have been excellent. They have, and I mean.
00:16:20
Speaker 1: What a week we've got to look forward to.
00:16:21
Speaker 13: We've got the thirty Six's Grand Final series starting on Saturday as well, so you'll have that going at the same time on Saturday night game one. You'll have the Asian Cup Final Saturday night, and then you've got South Australia in the Cricket Shield Final happening starting next week. So we've got a chance to bring home two titles to say, and an international trophy to Australia.
00:16:41
Speaker 1: It's a shame for those major sporting events they have to go up against their election coverage, isn't it, Because it's going to siphon the audience away. It's going to be what otherwise would be a popular event.
00:16:50
Speaker 4: I know, it's like, you know, I hope trying to get people watching the Shield when the Super Bowls. In terms of audience reach we've got.
00:17:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd love to watch the NBL Grand Final. I've watched the all season, but David will going to drink a glass of red and talk about the election for two and a half hours. I'll tune into that instead.
00:17:08
Speaker 4: I've got three words for you too, themed cheeseboard themed.
00:17:13
Speaker 1: Did you said two words or three words? You said two?
00:17:16
Speaker 4: Three words themed cheeseboard. It's cheese board. Two words? O guess it is? Yeah, yeah, I think it is okay. Cheese board cover off to a good start cheese boards.
00:17:28
Speaker 1: Luckily it'll be a night. But we don't have to talk numbers week previous the sort of stuff you can expect on some that I'm going, well, I can't count the two.
00:17:35
Speaker 13: But boys, the thirty six is tickets. While I'm there, they go and say I reckon the members today. Game two's next Friday. They are going to be oh boy hot, they've had thirty nine salts in a row.
00:17:45
Speaker 1: Those tickets will go like that is going to be unbelievable. Good stuff.
00:17:51
Speaker 5: The state election is coming up and it's a voting centers are open all week thing until six pm Saturday. Voting. It's a good thing.
00:18:00
Speaker 6: David Penberthe and Will Goodings five Double a Breakfast.
00:18:06
Speaker 1: Nineteen minutes of seven. Matt Sammett in justin moment we're enjoy talking about great saxophonists and sax solos as he is himself. What are these nice organic things that started at the foot. He hasn't been foisted on people. He turned up did a solo one day at the game and the crowd loved it, and the Crows did the smart thing. When if the people like it, we should keep doing it. And Matt's become a fixture. So he'll be back on Adelaide Oval very shortly, with two games Adelaide Oval this weekend, which is going to be great. Now, let's have a look at the oil of the petrol price, shall we. For the first time this morning the OTR and West Terrace is selling the unleaded ninety one for two dollars thirty nine point nine. That's actually down a smidge premium unleaded. So if you're paying for the ninety five Octai, that's two fifty seven point four ninety eight two sixty six diesel two seventy nine point nine. Now the reason I bring this up is because there has been whilst you've been sleeping, a significant ship in the oil barrel price, and it's not good news unfortunately, folks. So just to give you a little bit of history. Right now, Brent crude sitting at one hundred and nine dollars sixty. It's flirted with one hundred and ten now. Back on February twenty seven, before the war with Iran began, the barrel price is about seventy two dollars. It jumped up to one hundred dollars a barrel by March nine, and it's largely stayed there over the last ten days. So now it's March nineteen, ten days later, and overnight it has suddenly jumped up by nearly ten dollars a barrel, and it looks like it's still climbing as we speak. So the prices you are seeing are the pre ten dollars jump, if you know what I mean. And we know there seems to be a weak correlation between the barrel price and what we pay at the pump in Australia, hence the a Triple C investigating. But if there is a price pointer, it's that prices are going to continue going up on that front. On that that's the wholesale price, not about supply issues at all. Okay, so nine dollars sixty at the moment, which is which is somewhat concerning the things that have happened overnight that may well be influencing that Iran attack gas fields in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and bah Rain. Not that the gas productions necessarily organically linked to oil production, but their cap their capacity to strike has been not as not as diminished as we might have imagined. Their number of strikes they're using with drones and missiles have picked up in the last forty eight hours. So the war is further from a conclusion that perhaps oil speculators that originally thought the other thing that's happened overnight, Trump put out a truth social post where he said, remember yesterday he was admonishing allies for not helping, and then he said, well, we don't need you, We don't need your help to reopen the straits. Well, overnight, he posted effectively, maybe if we should just leave it as is, because we make our own oil, so you guys can just sort out your own problems once.
00:20:52
Speaker 4: And that's all for themselves.
00:20:54
Speaker 1: That may have spooked the market but as of six point forty four this morning, that is eventually a developing story this morning it's heading in a way, as we know, feeds into inflation, a whole heap of other things as well, So potentially it's a hopefully it's an overreaction and a blip and not a sign of a continuing increase in price. But for the first time in ten days it's jumped up significantly. Let's talk about something happy. Let's talk about the footy. Matt Sammutt, Crow's saxophonist is on the line. Matt, good morning to you.
00:21:21
Speaker 14: Hello, lads, good to hear from you.
00:21:23
Speaker 4: Hey, Matt, we are so excited that your back mate. It's going to be a huge night tomorrow night against the Doggies. How's your off season been? What do you do as a saxophonist in the off season?
00:21:33
Speaker 14: A look, this is this is the nice thing. I guess is usually in the summer you get busied his weddings, corporate gigs, Christmas shows, you know I mean, And usually I'm lucky enough to be at my usual residencies around Adelaide, actually lucky enough to work with Ruvaria and Kate Collins at a gig she was organizing. So it's been Yeah, it's been a busy off season. And then like bang, here we're back at footy you know, footy seat. And then I sort of taken a bit off guard because we had rehearsal the other night and it sort of hit me off where like this is happening. So it's been great and yeah, pumps me back and can't wait to see the boys in action at Adelaide over on Friday.
00:22:13
Speaker 4: So, Matt, have you got any have you got any new tunes you've been working on? Well, don't feel don't feel obliged to reveal all.
00:22:23
Speaker 14: I don't want to give too much for because I mean, I think that's the fun bit. But for me, I will stay a similar sort of pathway there. There are changes to some of the other elements, so I will stay for people. Make sure you get there early enough to check it out. Because as I said that rehearsal the other night, even you know, for me as a as a part of it, I was pretty like, Okay, that's gonna that sounds really good.
00:22:49
Speaker 1: Well, they've had Matt, they've had you on the roof, You've been in the stands, you've been in the boundary. They're running out of places to put you. When next are you going to jump out of a plane and landed in the city square and.
00:23:01
Speaker 4: Can be playing in the toilet.
00:23:06
Speaker 14: So maybe that's maybe that's you know, we've got more options. I think Adelaide was big enough. You know, we've got more things to explore. But yeah, I guess from my I mean, my hope and what I'm working with the guys is yeah, like how do we get get some more different places? And I think that's you know, I know, I know everyone's sort of is keen on songs and that's you know, a big part of sporting culture, you know, association with that. But for me, it's actually I think the best bit about it is where am I going to be? Like I don't even know sometimes myself, you know, So it's that's the fun part. I think that's the difference then, you know, you know, from different other other elements that you see when you go to other match days. And I might have mentioned this before, but it's them from this NHL sort of concept that I've thought when I was living in Canada, and that's what it was about. It was like they had different things popping up from different areas, and it wasn't necessary about what it was. It was just I was you know, you just would stay in your seat because you just didn't know what was going to happen.
00:24:12
Speaker 4: How did the idea come up?
00:24:13
Speaker 6: Man?
00:24:13
Speaker 4: How did you end up doing this for the Crows? Did they approach you? Did you approach them? What was the genesis of it?
00:24:19
Speaker 14: The entertainment Tom who does all the entertainment for the Crows, also books various other venues and stuff around Adelaide, and I've worked for him and his company for a few years. And essentially they approached him because he had already had a relationship with him and they sort of said, oh, look we want to change it up the pregame, like we want some suggestions. And essentially, yeah, I got a call saying, hey, do you want to meet with the Crows and you know, pitch something and yeah, to my surprise they said, yes, so here we are.
00:24:55
Speaker 4: But it's been a sensational thing.
00:24:58
Speaker 1: It's been great.
00:24:59
Speaker 4: It's given an extra a bit of razmataz to the home games and hopefully last Saturday, is any is any poor tent for the year ahead, It's going to be a cracking year. Matt Sammitt, the official saxophonist of the Mighty Adelaide Football Club. I hope to see you there tomorrow, Matt. Thank you.
00:25:21
Speaker 1: It's one of those nice things. It's so many pregame and postgame and mid game entertainment things are sort of, you know, engineered by a marketing department. That one was just it was just something that organically occurred that people loved, and like you know Liverpool's You'll Never Walk Alone things like that in English football. The songs that came up so often, we're just little tidbits of music that they people who ran it realized the fans got behind and would sing during halftime and so forth, and then they made it a feature and it as an enduring legacy. But the they have to happen naturally.
00:25:53
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, well, the moment you try to create something yourself, like when the Crows had that idea that chance night write songs and yeah, yeah that's what it was called, wasn't It never already took off?
00:26:05
Speaker 1: But Taddy likes remindings of the powerstance as well.
00:26:09
Speaker 4: I can't remember the powers now. I don't know what he's thinking about it. I've totally raised that from my memory, how do we get a Hawthorne support with our producer will Yeah, we.
00:26:18
Speaker 1: Have fitting system is imperfect, they said to the weather Bureau. Shila Connor is on duty this morning, Eshually, good morning to you.
00:26:24
Speaker 15: Good morning.
00:26:25
Speaker 1: What kind of Thursday have we got ahead?
00:26:28
Speaker 16: Well, at the moment, I've got I did a sort of low cloud and maybe even some iceolad sort of fog patches just pushing up onto the Adelaide Hills at the moment. We're in the southeasterly flow a bit clearer through the CBD at the moment, but we could see that cloud just sort of pushing through the area at times, especially through the afternoon. Expecting to see a little bit of cloud picking up through the Adelaide area, but otherwise not too bad of a day. It's currently sixteen and a half degrees headed for a top of twenty seven in Adelaide, Glenell was going for twenty six, Elizabeth twenty seven or Langar twenty six and Mount Barker twenty four today.
00:27:07
Speaker 4: Good stuff, chel I, thank you for that OCEL economy from the Bureau of Meteorology.
00:27:11
Speaker 1: All right, let's do say policy constable Jen Callen on the line, Jin, there's a fire in Gaula that's underway as we speak.
00:27:19
Speaker 11: Yes, there is.
00:27:19
Speaker 15: Good morning. It was just after five thirty this morning. Police and fire crews were called to Murray Street to reports of a business on fire. Now on arrival they found that several vacant premises and businesses were fully ablaze. So this stage there's no report of any injuries. But I said an assess of still trying to extinguish that blaze. Police advising pedestrians and motorists to please avoid Gauler CBD as Murray Street is currently closed between Colton Road and Bridge Street South while they trying to extinguish that blazer.
00:27:53
Speaker 4: No good Jen. Also, a drink driver has had a crash at West Beach.
00:27:57
Speaker 15: Yeah, and this was at quarter past four, yes, the afternoon. Police were called to Tapley's Hill Road after reports the landrover had crashed into a light pole and the impact of that crash brought down the pole. Fortunately nobody was injured. The driver was breath tested produced a reading of point one seven seven, which is almost four times the legal limit. So she was a twenty nine year old woman from Caeren Diller she's been charged with drink driving and aggravated driving without duke care. She's been issued a twelve month instant lots of license and we'll find herself in court in May.
00:28:29
Speaker 4: Good stuff, Jin, what a half we sendor Constable Jin Callen and from Sapol. We're getting a lot of texts here. We'll do it after the break. I bek Yeah, it's worth talking about.
00:28:38
Speaker 8: It was.
00:28:39
Speaker 1: We are going to be ed with the head of the PSA here as well about the offer to work from home to try and alleviate pressure on fuel supply. So we'll bundle it all together after the break.
00:28:50
Speaker 5: The state of legend is coming up and it's a vosing. Centers are open all week things until sixty m Saturday, Vosing. It's a good thing.
00:28:58
Speaker 6: Deepen pen Berbie and Will Goodings five double a breakfast.
00:29:05
Speaker 1: Five minutes to seven. Lots of great texts have come through in the first forty five minutes of the program this morning, largely with regard to petrol pricing and some of the measures to potentially stop petrol drive offs as mentioned by the Police Commissioner yesterday, but a range of things.
00:29:20
Speaker 4: David, Yeah, there's a whole pile here, lucky Steve, He says, boys, I swear by how Tesla hasn't cost a penny in two years. We've got Solo plus a Tesla battery, so it's a no brainer. Horses for courses. I've still got a Ford Ranger to pull the boat. Good on your Steve.
00:29:35
Speaker 1: Are a lot of people This might spare a lot of people just to go who for the first time, Go let's just get the notepad out and do some summers on the electric vehicle. Oh yeah, I know we have Yeah, what does that actually? What does it actually look like? I'm going to install the chargey thing. There's other costs that go with it, but what's the sum of it all? If petrol prices remain high for twelve months.
00:29:56
Speaker 4: Well that's it, you know those cars that are still the issue about resale value and the longevity of the battery. A few people having a crack at what THEO for Care from the Independent Retail has said. One here, what a ridiculous argument. We want to stop drive offs, but we don't want to lose selling a six hundred mill coke for six dollars fifty Well the business. The point THEO made though, was that all of those six dollars, fifty cokes out up for three billion dollars.
00:30:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, which is a large Well, and what do we know about retail businesses, and well they might they're not going to say, you know what, for the good of not sort stopping crime, we're going to four go three billion dollars. They'll still make three billion dollars, but they'll make it the pump.
00:30:37
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think I think Grant Stevens has got a point though, and he says, listen, we're not going to I am not going to allow a situation where as per the bottle shop robberies, which is completely different. He's not going to want to be sitting down there in his office at Anger Street hearing us doing an interview with some petrol retailer who's going, I rang the cop so they didn't even come, or they took an hour to come with you, Grant Steams to go, Yeah, that's because we're offered a domestic violence tasking. Yeah, Or we were actually at a bottle shop that had been robbed last night through no fault of its own, despite putting in all the security. Meanwhile, a survey was robbed because they haven't made this very simple change. Our good mate Rob wants to know all the flow on from this be a spiking number plate thefts.
00:31:28
Speaker 1: Well, he said that yesterday the commissioner literally said there would be.
00:31:31
Speaker 4: Yeah, Joe and Everson said she just sprayed a mouthful of coffee about my offer of showing you my irrigation system. Phil and Dave from albert And says, rifling through Pembo's hose, clamps, elbows and drippers, now that's a day out.
00:31:48
Speaker 1: A few people have said, well, hang on, you have to sit there and do the maths, the calculation of a ganity field tank. I imagine the technology would work like going to a vending machine these days, where you pre authorize your card so you don't have to know. You don't have to punch in I want the chocolate bar or the water and ones three sixty, ones four fifty. You swipe first and it says authorized, and then you pick and it charges back to your card the price of so you don't have to sit there and go I need thirty six leaders so at the current price, I need to pre pay forty seven dollars. It's pre authorization did and then it just calculates it back on your card, so I don't think that would exchange the experience.
00:32:24
Speaker 4: I'm ordering a burger at any macas in store.
00:32:26
Speaker 1: Now, well, that's all right. Yeah, let's talk about some of the flow and effects. There's a big emergency Cabinet meeting that's happening a little bit later today to talk about Australia's fuel stocks, what the state governments can do about it. It's called by the Prime Minister. Obviously, lots of ideas are coming forward. One of those from the PSA here in South Australia. Their General secretary Charlotte Watson, joins us on five to buy breakfast. Charlotte, you've suggested maybe it's time for public servants to work from home.
00:32:55
Speaker 7: Good morning. That's right. That's something that we saw during COVID. We saw thousands of Australians working from home very effectively, and we're putting out there on the table. Why not return to that arrangement to decrease the pressure on the number of people trying to get the petrol and leave it in the bounsers for the people who really need it, like the tradees and the truckees and the farmers.
00:33:19
Speaker 4: Can you actually do all those jobs as effectively those art. I mean, my memories of COVID were quite different from there.
00:33:26
Speaker 1: It felt like the world had sort of ground or Holt.
00:33:30
Speaker 7: That's a fair statement. Look, there was different tiers of arrangements during COVID, and we're certainly talking about the office spased people with this call, so there would be over ten thousand. I would guess people that are purely doing work on a computer. They are our people doing our policies, advice, conveyancing, payroll processing, all sorts of jobs that can really easily be done from home without any interruption to service.
00:33:56
Speaker 4: No, it's an interesting suggestion, and we'll see what the listeners think of it. Charlotte, thanks for coming on. Charlotte Watson, the General secretary of the Public Service Associations.
00:34:04
Speaker 1: If we get to that point, it means something bad has happened.
00:34:07
Speaker 4: If we got told to work from home, will I'd think seriously about quitting seriously.
00:34:13
Speaker 1: Thanks for that.
00:34:13
Speaker 4: No, you would too, wouldn't you? Do you ever want to do at this radio show via Microsoft teams?
00:34:19
Speaker 1: Again, I don't want to, but I would appreciate that it's because of something that's big and bad that's happening in the world that you know it's not because my business just decided it, so I wouldn't hold it against them. Stupid pandemic crikey, You've invited me around to look at irrigation and threaten to quit on it the next time anything else is coming up. Next time there's a bloody pandemic.
00:34:40
Speaker 4: I'm going to joint press conference with alexanderk I'm going full blown, just fi everything.
00:34:46
Speaker 1: You can't argue your way about there being no petrol in the country though you can't, well, no, that's true, you can't.
00:34:51
Speaker 4: I'm not going to quit cry.
00:34:56
Speaker 5: The state election is coming up, and it's a voting census, an all week thing until sixty and Saturday voting. It's a good thing.
00:35:04
Speaker 6: Deep in pen Berthy and Will Goodings five double breakfast.
00:35:09
Speaker 1: Light after seven. There's been a flurry of an exchange of notes in paperwork in the studio because Matt Abraham after seven point thirty is going to share his election predictions. I think we're all going to have a crack of it, aren't we this morning. We're going to try and tip it. And I'm so stupid.
00:35:21
Speaker 4: I did mine on my laptop at home and I never bring my laptop to work, so I'm trying to do it from memory on my run sheet.
00:35:26
Speaker 1: I think I've got it. This is the kind of thing you say and then it comes Monday morning and You've got every single one right. I've seen this routine before, na I left it on a post of the night. Let me come up with it at the moment, and then we reflect on I go, yeah, he got them all right. I tap it with forty before we go to talk forty a little bit later on. Fitzgerald's going to be on the program after eight o'clock. We'll get fifty's tips, but we'll talk about some of the big stories of the last week football wise with Fitzy, and we're going to chat with the barbecue and adelaide that I think still holds the record for the most Democracy sausages. The most that they got ordered and will be delivered is the Woodville Gardens Primary School Barbecue. Angela Ellis will be on the show before nine o'clock today. You can get the Democracy sassage is obviously five Toula dot com dot are you the biggest whack of them? Though? Are going to Woodville if you want to try them out on polling day. Lots of sport ahead that's not footy related as well, that you will see on Channel seven on the track and the turf. The Golden Slipper at rose Hill from eleven thirty is Saturday, and then next week Got Gout will be racing and that now is already become in his young life appointment setting viewing. Bruce McAvaney is the best I've ever done it and joins us now in five toul A breakfast.
00:36:43
Speaker 17: Bruce, Good morning to you you two, Will and David.
00:36:46
Speaker 9: There is a lot on is there?
00:36:48
Speaker 4: Ever, We've got to cover an election on Saturday night, Bruce, and we're going to be quite distracted because we're gonna have one eye on the women's cycho as well.
00:36:56
Speaker 9: It's just to pick from exactly. Look after Will's wrap of you, David, I might get you to mark my best bets tomorrow for rose Hill.
00:37:06
Speaker 1: On Saturday, Broce.
00:37:08
Speaker 4: Just not with horses elections, very horses.
00:37:12
Speaker 1: You're the expert on horses, Bruce. What what are you watching for? What? What's got you excited about rose Hill?
00:37:18
Speaker 9: Well, it's an incredible meeting anyway. Well, because you know there's five group ones, it's the world switches two year old based and it's always and if a cult wins the Golden sept he's automatically worth twenty or thirty million dollars in that range because he becomes one of the most sought after size in Australia. So it's a race that's got a ripple effect like no other than the country. So it's very sidney. But what's happening this week is really historic because there's every chance and there's probably a better than fifty percent chance of jockey James McDonald will become the greatest Group one winning jockey in the history of Australia. So Damien Oliver holds that record with one hundred and twenty nine Group one wins and James is one hundred and twenty eight. And if you think about the history of Australian racing sort of goes back about one hundred and seventy years, there's only been five other men that have held this actual title. So Damien Oliver probably probably will be passed by James McDonald. The five Group ones, he's on two hot favorites, he's on three other horses that could win. It'll be a huge job and within that he's riding a horse who's become the new darling of Australia, a horse called Autumn Glow. So she's running in a race called the George Rider. It's a million dollar wait for age Group one and she's had ten starts and she hasn't been beaten, so already people are starting to think, boy, are we seeing another black caviare or wink. So it's sort of all these things are all happening, and there are other bits and pieces of history as well, all happening on this one day. So it feels like a big sporting day more than a big racing day.
00:38:50
Speaker 1: So potential to see some records broken and indeed some new legends born, a bit like what we might see a week later. On the track. Gout goes head to head with Lachlan ken and he again broce, it's just remarkable, this this young fellare as I say, whenever he raises now it's it's back page news, it is.
00:39:09
Speaker 9: And look that you know that's in Melbourne, next cetera. As you saying. Last year lock at Kennedy beat out and it was a bit of a surprise at the time. It shouldn't have been in some ways because of Kennedy had already achieved only things in the month or two beforehand for and it's hard to pick. I mean at the moment, you know, gout run last weekend, I was, let's see up there in Queensland, he wasn't feeling one hundred percent. He's still rund very well. Kennedy's had one major run here in Australia so far this season, actually run in Adelaid last Friday night in a relay and he looked enormous. He looked awesome. So it's going to be hard to take on this over two hundred meters. And then two of the the two most exciting male spinters that you know in my lifetime in Australia and there's civilar Age and Locke's three years older, but he's only twenty one, twenty two in gout dteen. So yeah, that's something that I think we're all very very excited about.
00:40:04
Speaker 4: Hey, Bruce, can I ask you a weird question and something I've always wondered and you you don't need to feel the compunction to answer, but as a football commentator and absolutely one of the greatest of all time, and I say that acknowledging and extending a sympathies to you for the loss of Dennis Comedie who with you. You sort of the bookends when it comes to the absolute pinnacle or footy commentary in this country. But have you got a team that you barrack for or why do you keep that to yourself?
00:40:35
Speaker 8: No?
00:40:35
Speaker 9: I don't keep it so, and this is absolutely from the heart in the head.
00:40:40
Speaker 11: I don't.
00:40:42
Speaker 9: I'm myself Australian. So if Adelaide or bought Adelaide are winning, on pretty happy. But I don't actually worry for anyone. I I don't. And I grew up at nord I played a little bit of underage foot Bild, so I had that connection. I didn't have a VF team that I've swap from. You know most kids do. I boat to the team that was most likely to win the flag. But I didn't have that Victorian team. And when the Crows came in, obviously I was incredibly proud of you. I called those Grand Finals, those premissires, it was amazing. Knew what it meant for our states. So the answer to your question is that I sort of boat for eighteen teams. So I'm in a pretty good position as a call of David, I think, and this is again one hundred percent of the truth. When I went to the match, I just wanted the underdog to be competitive. So there was a bit of me that always wanted the team less likely to be competitive, and so that's how I've gone about it.
00:41:40
Speaker 4: I reckon to you, probably because you're so on top of the teams, the players, the up and comers, and know so much about all of the true greats of the game, you almost end up barracking for the good of the sport rather than the glory of one side.
00:41:55
Speaker 9: You do, and you see that, you know, you get relationships. I said on a plane Sunday going to Brisbane to watch out and next to me was Chris Scott. You know, so Scotty able to have a fantastic chat to him. You know about you know, the trends of the game this year and all of those things, and we know what a formidable figure is. So you get to meet all these people, all these coaches, get to have their relationship with all of them, and it's respectful and so in the end you're right. You just want all of them to do well, and you know that that's impossible, and there's ups and there's downs and all of those things. Yeah, I've enjoyed those relationships and hopefully I will be able to continue them.
00:42:38
Speaker 1: Bruce, just on the mat that Goat and Lockie Kennedy are running at is our man Aidan Murphy going to be there? Is he still recovering from running overseas?
00:42:47
Speaker 9: No, he's he's there, so well, he's he's gonna run the four hundred.
00:42:51
Speaker 8: So.
00:42:51
Speaker 9: Aiden is the son of Tanya zan Here, who's one of our best ever sprinter. She's a double gold medals.
00:42:58
Speaker 1: The reason I and my movie who works with us there at five double I.
00:43:02
Speaker 9: Know exactly, Dad look. Aiden was quite an exceptional junior. He won the Australian Senior Championship at two hundreds of ada and then and was the running record holder. He was the stunning record holder for the under twenty two hundred to four out came along. But he's what he's done in the last twelve months and particularly in the last six weeks, has been astonishing. He's the South Austonian record holder for one hundred, two hundred and four hundred. He's taken his game, if I might say like that, to another level. You could argue he's South Australia's greatest ever male sprinter already he'll get to the Connwealth Games. He is very exciting. We've got somebody in South Australia along with Curtis Marshall, our great boll Boulder who right now we should be very proud of and is he Bat Doyle and Jes Stinson and there's some others. But Aiden's pretty special, guys. He's sort of he's you know we talk about the out and lock in that he's he can match lights of those guys. I'm telling you somebody absolutely to support to get right behind the South Australians.
00:44:07
Speaker 1: Well, Bruce, we.
00:44:08
Speaker 4: Always love having you on mate, any any an excuse will do absolutely. You're welcome to come on our program every day if you want. We catch it up with your mate. Bruce mcaveny, Legend of Australian Sports Broadcast Channel seven. Thank you, Bruce.
00:44:21
Speaker 1: You can now you can catch the Golden Slipper from eleven thirty Saturday and then if you want to watch all the fun on the track that will be mark the twenty eighth of March, all live and free on seven and seven plus. So we're such a great combination with that maca Anian committee. It's special. It's one of those things you don't realize how rare and incredible it is until it's gone. Yeah, and then's you can't replicate that.
00:44:45
Speaker 4: Bruce brings the niceness and the sincere and it's very very undervalued word nice. People think it's kind of insipid and weak, but being nice, there's a genuine warmth to Bruce macke Well, what's the controversy? Will are unpleasant thing? Bruce McAvaney ever said, yeah, pass, But when you had him just with that pure love of the game and commedee bringing that, just that cleverness and that humor, it's just this superb double act, wasn't it.
00:45:16
Speaker 1: And with the likes of which I will say that with a twinge of sadness, we'll never see again.
00:45:21
Speaker 4: But this is the thing now, Like it's sort of race to the bottom in the hot takes department.
00:45:27
Speaker 1: Yes, Like it's just unbearable.
00:45:30
Speaker 4: You know, even I haven't even got i'n't even got Nick Dacos in the top ten. Okay, good on you.
00:45:37
Speaker 1: I think it's just yeah, it's a bigger conversation, but it's it's a recipe for doom. I think this idea that you can out hoot take the internet too. By the way, there's always going to be someone out the who's prepared to say something stupid and wilder than you. These days, that it's on a podcast or that's on an X account or something, you're never gonna be out. You never to be able to out weird or stupid people behind a microphone anymore. So you get off of something nels. I think, like talking about irrigation, this is just it. You can't AI can't replicate that.
00:46:09
Speaker 5: The state election is coming up and it's a voting centers are open all week thing until six pm Saturday goes in.
00:46:16
Speaker 6: It's a good thing, deep it pen Birbe and Will Goodings five double.
00:46:20
Speaker 1: A Breakfast twenty four after seven. I think when the news verse came out that Mandy seventies had disappeared on these kayak and the search was called off overnight, we all feared the worst. It turned out he was found the next morning. I've probably should defer to you on this day because you have kayaked in your younger years in this area out.
00:46:38
Speaker 4: There it's get beautiful bird life and you've got like nice little mangravy sort of tributaries that you can get into as well. But it's actually like when you're out to see it can get pretty wind swept. But the people who have much better idea as to what actually happened in this case the SA Ambulance Service Special Operations Group. Clint Daniels is a team rescue paramedic who winched him out yesterday. Clint, he's a lucky old blake, isn't he.
00:47:04
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's quite an ordeal but but yeah he's a little bit lucky, i'd say, or unlucky.
00:47:11
Speaker 4: Yeah, you look at it absolutely so.
00:47:15
Speaker 1: Can you can you give us a sense, Clint? How did he get himself into strife?
00:47:19
Speaker 2: So he likes to go fishing o kayakers. He's done twenty times before, and he's left the outlet from Middle Beach, gone out through the mangroes and then I'm pretty much a tidal flat. He's gone fishing, which understands a regular occurrence for him. After fish, and he's father to locate or relocate the entrance back to Middle Beach, and after spending a great deal of time searching up and down the coast there, he's had to spend the night the Mangroes with the Mosses.
00:47:52
Speaker 8: Chris.
00:47:53
Speaker 2: Yeah. When when he failed to return, I believe his wife because I only started the shift towards the end of the operator, I believe his wife raised the alarm, which then provoked a search and rescue response to involved the Pole Air helicopter which was didn't locate him that night, but located him in the morning and most started and then that directed I believe some jet skis from police Wardrops to his location and then myself as part of the special operations team on the rescue helicopter, then flew out to go around at his location and we didn't actually winch him, we were able to land on ok.
00:48:38
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah. And from all the vision that we've seen and we've got it up on our live stream now, he looks like he was in perfectly good health when you got him.
00:48:48
Speaker 2: Well, the conditions were actually really nice, so the temperature was pretty warm overnight. He was wearing from what from memory, wet suit bottom half and he was packed with warm recently warm cloth English and they wouldn't to be quite comfortable apart.
00:49:06
Speaker 4: From them just needed a bit of air reguard and they were very friendly. Well, you did a great job and we appreciate you coming on. Clint Daniels, team Rescue paramedic for the SA Ambulance Service Special Operation.
00:49:21
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful part.
00:49:22
Speaker 4: Of the state.
00:49:23
Speaker 1: Wouldn't want to spend the night in the kayak, though, I reckon it wouldn't be the most comfortable sleep we've ever had.
00:49:29
Speaker 4: Crawley's and the Mangroves.
00:49:30
Speaker 1: I did laugh at one detail, and that is that I think some in his age counted against him, David, but not in a way that you might imagine. One of the reasons he was hard to find he left his mobile phone in his car, which would be a virtual impossibility for anyone under the age of fifteen.
00:49:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, because if you don't photograph everything that happens every second of the day, how do you know that it was real?
00:49:49
Speaker 1: I did laugh at that. Did last night they recommended if you're going to go out, to take your phone with you so they can find you. You can get wet. Their phones can get wet though, Yeah, well the new models can, can they?
00:50:01
Speaker 4: Yeah?
00:50:02
Speaker 1: What is it up to now about the iPhone team something? Yeah, I think I think it's a long way past the team yours might not be though, What a time to be absolutely it's a coming up to twenty eight minutes after seven. Stick around Matt Abraham coming up next with his election prediction. This is the moment you've all been waiting for. It's all been building up to this. If you've got a prediction that you'd like to make about your seat, maybe folks, so you no one knows your area better than you, text us or let us know eight double two three double a double. We would love to get a little bit of local knowledge as well. Stick around Matte Abraham on the other side of the five double a news.
00:50:37
Speaker 5: The state election is coming up and it's a voting centers are open all week thing until six pm Saturday voting.
00:50:45
Speaker 1: It's a good thing.
00:50:46
Speaker 6: Deep in pen Berthy and Will Goodings five double a breakfast.
00:50:53
Speaker 1: Twenty one minutes to wait. You can put your Macrus pendulum away, you can forget about your prediction markets, all your favorite gambling odds. If you want to make a prediction, that now's the time to do so. Because Matt Abraham's in the studio and he's going to call the South Australian election.
00:51:14
Speaker 4: Here's democracy.
00:51:18
Speaker 1: You're eating the dogs.
00:51:20
Speaker 12: I tell you what any buses sex and he wanted to not standing up the day of.
00:51:23
Speaker 1: The month matts. No pressure, of course, man, the pressure.
00:51:33
Speaker 12: No, thank you very much, thank you very much. And now look before I forget, before I forget. If you're in weight, the electric of weight, and you're voting on Saturday and you want to test the fantastic lamb and mint, is that right?
00:51:48
Speaker 1: Democracy?
00:51:50
Speaker 12: Mint and Rosemary Democracy sausage, then you need to go to the Hawthorne Community Center polling Booth five, Frimly Grove and all money rais goes to the local Scouts.
00:52:02
Speaker 1: Terrific thing, great idea, get in then try one. All thanks to the Joby from their award winning farm to your table and the joby dot com dot A U Matt have done a wonderful job.
00:52:09
Speaker 4: Put on them. We've got a little plug in there for totally.
00:52:11
Speaker 1: Yea beautiful work, all right, everyone in politics.
00:52:18
Speaker 4: I prepared to go out on a limb and predict the re election of the melanouskus government. Go hard or go home.
00:52:25
Speaker 12: Peter Malnausis will be premiere come Sunday.
00:52:30
Speaker 1: I think there's a there's a consensus on that.
00:52:32
Speaker 4: Both in this studio and out there with everybody listening to the program.
00:52:36
Speaker 12: Is there not there is? Yeah, Yeah, Labor are well. Whatever happens, Labor are going to romp home. They'll be romping home.
00:52:45
Speaker 1: One Nation.
00:52:47
Speaker 12: Really, I suppose during the course of this four weeks we've seen the One Nation sort of up end the campaign in some ways, haven't we Because they started to show up in the poll probably about a month beforehand. But they've just kept going up and up and up, and now they're ahead of the Liberal Party primary vote, and so much so I think, not about twenty four percent. We've had three We've had the Fox and Hounds or Fox and hedgehole Pole. We've had excellent ties of Pole, you garv. We're waiting on news.
00:53:24
Speaker 1: Poll which only we knew someone if.
00:53:26
Speaker 12: Only we use somebody who's worked for the Australian.
00:53:29
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm checking my inbox. Yeah, if it's here, I can't.
00:53:33
Speaker 1: That's no good to us, is it.
00:53:35
Speaker 4: But I do not have that.
00:53:37
Speaker 12: Fine, But we haven't seen we haven't seen a shift in a significant shift in the polls throughout the course of the election campaign that they haven't shifted. The Labor primary vote has edged back a bit. So things have tightened up a bit, but so's a liberal primary vote and so and they seem to be going to one nation. They're not good.
00:54:00
Speaker 4: You know, labors.
00:54:01
Speaker 12: Liberals aren't getting voters off labor. One nation's getting some voters maybe off labor, and they're getting a lot of voters off the Liberal party. Looking at the pendulum, So I've looked at the poles and all through this campaign, this pendulum just about sort of worn out, this little Abraham pendulum just it's got so many you know, I've got people are in jail, people are wearing ankle bracelets, a lot of retirements for.
00:54:31
Speaker 1: People that are up for me to the pendulum till we talk about it's a graphic thing. So on radio, it's sort of you imagine a graphic where at one end you've got all the most safe labor seats. You got all the labor seats, Yeah, and it runs all the way through and you get to the middle of the most marginal. On the other side you got the most marginal Liberal and then that's through to their safest It's a good way of imagining.
00:54:48
Speaker 4: So and to give you an even stronger visual, the safest seat is Peter mallon OUs because his seat for Labor in a West Croydon, it's hanging.
00:54:56
Speaker 12: In there on his fingertips on twenty four point eight percent margin. Anything could happen there.
00:55:01
Speaker 1: He gets like seventy five percent of the vote in that area.
00:55:04
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:55:04
Speaker 4: Yeah. And then way down on the other end, you've got Tim Whetstone in the Riverland Yep, Chaffey.
00:55:09
Speaker 12: Chaffey seventeen point two percent, Ashton hearns on eleven point nine. After that for Liberals, I think every seat is in play, so the Liberals lonely hold.
00:55:21
Speaker 4: Just to set the scene, the Liberals currently hold thirteen seats. Yes, how many will they hold after Saturday eighty? I think, Matt.
00:55:29
Speaker 12: Three to four.
00:55:34
Speaker 1: So what's your number for Liberal seat held?
00:55:36
Speaker 4: Mine's nine, but I think I might be wrong.
00:55:40
Speaker 1: Mine's four.
00:55:42
Speaker 10: I know.
00:55:42
Speaker 1: If our four are the same, I'm guessing they are. Schubert, Chaffey, McKillop, Brag, I've got I know. Actually I know they're not the same because I know you. You're a big doubter on Brag.
00:55:53
Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Well everyone keeps saying that Brag's eight point two percent, So no, it's five point six.
00:55:57
Speaker 4: We had a July by election caused by the.
00:56:00
Speaker 12: Totally needless and petulent resignation of Vicky Chapman.
00:56:05
Speaker 4: So you're telling me that the people you shop at Burnside Village are going to vote for the Labor Party.
00:56:10
Speaker 12: Well, they did in the federal election in Sturt, which you get a bit of tracing paper and lays Sturt over. They didn't win. Liberal Party didn't win a booth in Sturt.
00:56:19
Speaker 1: So what would your four be then, Matt? If they got to four based on the Matt Abraham Bridge, which I'm fascinating because I couldn't get him to I've got a theory on five. But I order you you're how you can get him to four?
00:56:30
Speaker 12: Well, Schubert and Chafey, I'm I'm just throwing I can't see. I think they're at risk in all the others, but I'm hedging my bets a little bit.
00:56:40
Speaker 1: They probably okay, because.
00:56:43
Speaker 12: For instance, I think what was Frome's now Najerie. And I say this at the risk of having more text from Michael Pratt, Penny Pratt's dad. She's the sitting liberal empetty. But I think Najerie's in play now. It's on eight point one but Tony Piccolo is running there. He sort of set himself up, as you know, almost two seats. Tony he had had an electric office, you know, in the area of quasi electric office. I think they're vulnerable there, vulnerable to who to one nation or Labor. I think they're vulnerable to Labor. Yeah, you know, Nagerie could be a later seat. And there are seats I think like Hammond with Adrian Pederick, that's only.
00:57:23
Speaker 1: On five percent and a lot.
00:57:26
Speaker 4: I've got them losing Hammond, but I've got the losing Hammond not to Labor. I've got the losing Hammond on one nation.
00:57:31
Speaker 12: Same here, I think. So my look, my breakdown is thirty eight Labor. I hope this adds up. I think we have the same number of independence in one form or another. Five independents, three Liberal and one one nation.
00:57:47
Speaker 1: The one nation.
00:57:49
Speaker 12: Well, I think Hammond is a risk of one nation definitely.
00:57:52
Speaker 1: So I've got almost that anything to you, four Libs, one one nation, five independents, thirty seven Labor, the one nation being Narrunga. What your numbers in the end.
00:58:02
Speaker 4: Mine? Okay, So I've got the Libs. I think they're definitely going to lose Only, definitely going to lose Colton, Definitely going to lose Vincentazi's seat of Hartley. They're going to lose Finness to the Independent, and I think they're going to lose Hammond too. One nation.
00:58:15
Speaker 12: What about Morphitt on full point five?
00:58:18
Speaker 1: For some weird reason, I've got a funny feeling on Morefa and I'll tell you what. I agree they're they're having there. They're having their election night party at the race course there. Okay, that's an interesting choice about you can pick anywhere in Adelaide to have that where all the faith comes together.
00:58:39
Speaker 4: Good point.
00:58:40
Speaker 1: A lot of pissed off Alga Bloom people in Morphed. If they get to five, I think they're picking off one of those. They've had a good campaign and say a Marialta or your Tazi's giant slaying ways continue or a morph It be one of those gone.
00:58:55
Speaker 12: It's on one point for John gard I've.
00:58:57
Speaker 1: Got it gone. But I'm just saying one of those that's on it expected well, Steve's got to said he's a good candidate there though.
00:59:02
Speaker 12: Stephen Patterson did well and Matt Cawdry, who's retiring, did well. At the last day election, they are just the two seats. I think that's sort of held back the tire. Yeah, I and sadly and I think it's the lost to us. Matt Cowdry is retiring Colton's on four point eight. I think they'll lose Colton the Libs. But you're right if I'm queasy about anything, it is I was thinking this driving in this morning. It is morphic with Stephen Patterson. I don't know why, because you know it's on four and a half.
00:59:31
Speaker 4: The thing that worries me and I reckon and because of the way the rhetoric that he's been using during the election, I think deep down at worries Peter Melanous, I haven't got Labour losing a seat, but with One nation's vote being as big as it is, and I think that Newspole later today will show, as you said earlier, that that vote has not dissipated because the people are pissed off, remain pissed off, and they might even be even more pissed off post Iran. We're now two or the fifty petrel had an interest rate increase. People feel like the mainstream is doing nothing to help them. So those One nation voters are rock solid. So I've got them winning Hammond. I've got them winning narranger of Fraser Ellis. I've got a weird theory though, I think if Penny Prattle loses, she loses to one Nation, not labor. So how many one nations have you got? Well, I've got a minimum of two. But I think weird things could happen in outer suburban, northern and southern suburb seats. I reckon I've heard that in Davenport one Nation are going really well. I've heard that in Morson, in Gharana Chris Pitton's seat. I've heard that in Torren's Darna Whirtley's seat where she's not running. I reckon there could be the same people who voted no to the Voice, blue collar, traditional labor votes. I reckon there could be some really weird left field results that show that one Nation is a threat not just to the Liberal Party but to both sides.
01:00:55
Speaker 1: I spoke to two people last night who said the Elizabeth Booth is amazing with regard to the one Nation take. Not knowing enough necessary that Labo're going to lose a seat, but just it's been quite phenomenal to watch physically being there, how popular the one nation vote has been.
01:01:10
Speaker 4: This, this.
01:01:14
Speaker 12: Fox and Hedgehog pole.
01:01:16
Speaker 1: Some only say that I feel like ordering a pint.
01:01:17
Speaker 12: I know that well, Fox and Hedgehog, and I think the guy who runs it, you know you knows Benjamin Bunny. No, it's not what his name is, Peter, Peter Rabbit. But they did this in their last poll. Here they've done a breakdown. Inner Adelaide has labor on forty five, the Liberals on nineteen. This is Inner Adelaide, but it's interesting. Outer Adelaide has labor on fifty eight, the Liberals on sixteen, one nation on twenty six. Now so on yes, Inner Adelaide, one nation's on fifteen, but in Outer Adelaide one nations on no sorry, yes, out of Adelaide, one nations on twenty six. So it is interesting when you get out of the CBD ish type areas, the one nation votes big, and the Fox and Hedgehog guy said that he thinks one nation will win at least one seat, because he said, if a party's got twenty four percent primaries, yeah, they're going to get a seat unless you know something very wrong. And the Liberals are preferencing one nation. They'll also get the Australian Family Party vote, they'll get a few.
01:02:34
Speaker 4: You know, me too have presented is a doomsday scenario for the Liberal Party whereby what Ashton Hern is what the leader and is she also the shadow Trea.
01:02:45
Speaker 1: I think doomsday's two seats. I felt pretty good given him four. I think because I think it's feasible that it's it's fewer than that.
01:02:55
Speaker 4: Well, the polleting that.
01:02:55
Speaker 1: Killed Vincent Tazi was two seats, wasn't it that? And winning two seats, well.
01:03:03
Speaker 10: It is.
01:03:04
Speaker 1: Look, I came up with this great line the.
01:03:09
Speaker 4: Liberals moved to Ashton Hern to save the furniture, only to find that Pauline Hanson sleeping on the couch.
01:03:16
Speaker 12: Save that for your column, but you know it is extraordinary. I do think David, you're right in terms of one nation that we just don't know that that is a big shed load of votes sitting there in one nation. And you know, I think there's some I've had reports that some of the one nation candidates, even though they're not formally basically allocating preferences to either party, are in ink writing out on their own how to vote recommended cards, how people should vote. So they're doing their own play there, which is a very one nation thing to happen.
01:03:59
Speaker 1: So it's yeah, pen not pencil.
01:04:01
Speaker 4: Two.
01:04:02
Speaker 12: Yes, you don't use pencil because the apparently the Electoral Commission, you know, those people will change your vote.
01:04:07
Speaker 5: Apparently the state election is coming up and it's a voting centers are open all week thing until six pm Saturday, voting.
01:04:18
Speaker 1: It's a good thing.
01:04:19
Speaker 6: David Penberthy and Will Goodings five double a.
01:04:22
Speaker 1: Breakfast, three to eight. Matt Abraham has just passed down his election prediction. Just repeat the numbers. People are just tuning in and they've been waiting all week to hear from you.
01:04:31
Speaker 12: ALP thirty eight Independent five Liberal three one nation one.
01:04:37
Speaker 1: There you go, Matt Abrams called it. Tune in on Saturday night. Matt Abram will be with us for our election coverage. We'll see how ultimately he done, how much we can ultimately work out based on the night. There's going to be some tricky sorts of contest, especially in regionals, we'll need to work out. We might be struggling to piece it together, but we'll certainly give it our best.
01:04:55
Speaker 4: Shon I reckon the latest seat to be decided maybe like even a fortnight after the election.
01:05:01
Speaker 12: Yeah, and you're well the knowing our electoral commission. They've got a new IT system which they're rolling out, which apparently is just collapsing all over the place at early polling booths. It's not going well at all. So I'm hoping they've got it fixed by election night. There's going to be a long night.
01:05:16
Speaker 1: Otherwise he certainly will be She wrts some spin.
01:05:19
Speaker 12: Yes, matts, now I've been I will have my mighty mightier scrab of the election campaign in just a moment. But before that, this is the Victorian Liberals who are campaigning against to Alan to the point where just to Allan, there are rumblings about her leadership, that she may not be the best person to lead the party the Labor parties in the next election. But this is Jess Wilson. What she's done here, She's in a one piece black swim suit. I have to say, quite tidy.
01:05:53
Speaker 1: Well, it's that political analysis bell.
01:05:57
Speaker 4: After a fashion.
01:05:58
Speaker 1: Just so many people coming on. Peter Malanowska is in abathing.
01:06:02
Speaker 12: Exactly the game, not to comment part of the cut and for us to boot on it. But anyway, so they staged their own Comwealth Games, you know, with hurdles that they fall over, you know, taking the mickey out of the fact that Victoria paid something like three hundred million dollars not to run the Commonwealth Games. Who starts in the pool and she ends in the pool? This is Jess Wilson.
01:06:23
Speaker 18: Today would have been the opening ceremony for the Commonwealth Games here.
01:06:27
Speaker 11: In Victoria, but Labor canceled the Games, dumping a six hundred million dollar weight on all Victorians.
01:06:33
Speaker 4: So welcome to the Games. The Victoria never.
01:06:36
Speaker 1: Hosted first event the running out of money.
01:06:38
Speaker 13: We lay almost six hundred million dollars for another country to host this event.
01:06:45
Speaker 18: The budget bomb and sank further into the red. Labor may have canceled the Comwealth Games, but they'll never stop playing games with your money. It's time for a fresh start, Victoria.
01:06:58
Speaker 1: I reckon, it's a great I'm glad you say.
01:07:01
Speaker 4: I really liked it.
01:07:01
Speaker 12: I liked that it's a bit longer, and it's got her team all sort of falling over they're all doing it, and barious.
01:07:07
Speaker 4: Points for using technotronics pump up the gym. I'm giving that.

01:07:18
Speaker 4: Mats Booty on the dance floor, make my day. Matt, you know too much music.
01:07:27
Speaker 12: But this is to me the election promise of the election campaign. So this is my final final mighty, not min final mighty mighty for this election campaign. And it goes to Trent Bernard, who's a Liberal candidate for Davenport, and he did this standing in the rain.
01:07:47
Speaker 19: I've been listening to the community and today I'm really proud to share some great news and elected her and Liberal government will fund a brand new bus shelter on the eastern side of Ridgeway Drive, right out the front of the Flag Star Shops. This is something many early residents have asked for, a safe, sheltered place to wait for public transport, protected from the wind and the rain.
01:08:09
Speaker 2: And the heat.
01:08:11
Speaker 4: All politics is local, All politics is local.
01:08:15

Speaker 12: I want to just let them all off the leash. What have they got to lose? Bus Stop nine outside the flag Staff shops, get some solid.

Sounds like a great fun night and show at a great ven you at Amagity's Theater as well.
01:10:03
Speaker 4: Have you got the sound effect.
01:10:06
Speaker 1: Misfire? I was going to try to make the sound of myself.
01:10:09
Speaker 4: Hey, this is a good news story for residents of the southwestern corner of the city. In response to their concerns about safety, particularly drug related misconduct, bad behavior, and also the proliferation of needles in the area. We understand that the state government has responded to the concerns of residents. We did this as a breaking at eight about probably six weeks ago, and they've decided that they are going to shut down the needle and syringe program, which is currently located in Whitmore Square, and they're going to find a better site, an alternative site somewhere within the Adelaide CBD, which is away from such densely populated areas. I've spoken to several residents who say that the last few months have been absolute hell over summer. I mean, obviously there's other issues that go beyond drug use amthetamines and so forth, but the drug part of it has been one aspect that has made life deeply unpleasant for people who live and work in the area. There's been incidents involving people who are off their chops on meth and so forth, who've been causing mayhem at cafes in the area, damaging people's property. So there's no date yet, but we understand that the Health Minister, Chris Pickton, has advised the Adelaide City Council that the local Area Health Network that runs it has been there since twenty eighteen, is going to shut it and move it somewhere else. So watch this space, hey. Can I also just say I want to do a bit of tidying up here. I want to apologize to tomato growers for yesterday's breaking at eight because the information that we ran and we did this in all sincerity and with no knowledge to the contrary. And I've got to say, I am completely flummoxed as to why a guy who owns a tomato farm would tell us hand on heart that he had found the tomato virus on his own farm, which is what yesterday's Breaking at eight was about. Well, the Tomato Grows Association will come in and said not true. They also have no idea why those comments were made. But given that we did do it as breaking at eight with someone who we've got no issue with the person. We've spoken to him before many times when this was a genuine problem in the area. But we just want to make it clear that that breaking at eight was wrong, and I regret that we ended up in this weird position where we ran that story. We're not in the business of running false information. We try to check things. In that case, we thought, why on earth would you know, blatedly, why would someone come on and say with this stuff to the detriment of their own industry in business?
01:13:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it wasn't.
01:13:03
Speaker 4: True, and for that we apologize. And you can put a line through that one. It's annoying, it's strange.
01:13:14
Speaker 1: Well, I was just try as you were saying, it's a bit like at the height of COVID someone a cafe came out, going, yep, we had it in our shop yesterday, and it's a bit hard to run a business under these regulations. And then someone's saying, actually, no, you didn't even.
01:13:30
Speaker 4: There's no trigger where you think, oh yeah, he asked, are you just fambrogating the fact that you've got tomato rus anyway.
01:13:37
Speaker 1: Totally meculiar. And congratulations to Barbara from Flagstaff Hill who's getting along to see Cluto the plague. Congratulations to you, Barbara. That's not where the giving ends, though, because we have a carell It smart watch to give away.
01:13:49
Speaker 4: David.

Well, you won't have any memories of nineteen forty seven. We ask you about your memories of growing up in Adelaide and Australia in the early fifties and so forth.

Speaker 4: That is amazing, John, John, what do you what do you remember from? What's your earliest memory? Where'd you go to school?
01:16:33
Speaker 8: I went to school in Melbourne. I was born in Melbourne unfortunately, and not something I say out loud these days. When I was born in Melbourne box Hill. We moved over here when I was was I nine year nine. You're right, and I've been here ever since except nine years from sixty five to seventy four when I was in the Navy.
01:16:57
Speaker 1: In the Navy, did it take your far and wide?
01:16:59
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, to the Vietnam and around the world.
01:17:01
Speaker 4: Heare, what ship be on? John Spots? So what ship were you on?
01:17:05
Speaker 8: I was on Sydney and I was on H Parametta and H Mooserra fantastic.
01:17:10
Speaker 1: Good on you, John, Hey, congratulations see happy birthday for yesterday, John from Glengari, Caro, Caro, making it all possible. Yep, that's exactly right. All right, let's talk it a tenor attention to footy. There's lots to talk about on this front. Ryan Fitzgerald joins us. Thanks to Walco, we're at the center of SA's Pig's cover up with their incredibly good looking Walco mesh pool cover. Fitzy, good morning to you.
01:17:30
Speaker 4: The magnificent Sweet Sweet Goodness, and Pembo, good to be here.
01:17:33
Speaker 1: Boy. If it's a year, we're all jealous of you. You were there at the MCG on Saturday night. How nervous did you get when it got back to two straight gigs?
01:17:41
Speaker 10: Oh?
01:17:41
Speaker 3: They were coming even like I mean, that's it was funny because at halftime, you know how people sort of go off, they go get some food and drink. It was funny because a lot of people were.
01:17:52
Speaker 17: Coming back into there, into their seats, and we jumped them in that third quarter, that first ten minutes when we kicked those five six goals, it were just felt like it might have been too far out of the their reach, but they kept coming, they kept coming.
01:18:07
Speaker 3: I thought, oh, here we go. But the boys held their nerve.
01:18:10
Speaker 4: It was so good.
01:18:11
Speaker 3: And to see so many ankle bracelets being cut off and thrown away.
01:18:14
Speaker 4: At the end of the game.
01:18:15
Speaker 3: It was great to see by the Collingwood supporters.
01:18:20
Speaker 4: Watching it at home.
01:18:21
Speaker 1: Vicy it felt like there was a really good, crazy contingent there.
01:18:25
Speaker 4: It really was. It was really loud when we were when we scored.
01:18:31
Speaker 3: Ah, yeah, that third quarter it was. It was delightful.
01:18:35
Speaker 4: Actually, I was in a really good area. Actually, I was up.
01:18:39
Speaker 17: Near where Peter Daykos sits, so I could see Peter Dakos was getting quite annoyed.
01:18:45
Speaker 3: With the fifty meter penalties that adelaide and I just thought, well, there's a couple of things that I need to disagree with at the MCG as well.
01:18:54
Speaker 10: Well.
01:18:55
Speaker 3: First of all, I did sneak down into the rooms so that the security is not too good at the mc did the other one as well? Boys, I paid twenty dollars for a pint of Asahi.
01:19:04
Speaker 4: What's twenty bucks?
01:19:06
Speaker 3: Twenty dollars for a pint of asahi at the MCG.
01:19:10
Speaker 1: You are kidding?
01:19:11
Speaker 17: That's worse than Sydney International Airport. That's getting out of control.
01:19:15
Speaker 1: No wonder Michelle Bullok raised the interest rates. That's outrageous.
01:19:18
Speaker 4: What do you think about it? So the equivalent of three pints of asahi at the MCG, you could buy a carton of asahi at your local three cold easily. It's getting ridiculous.
01:19:32
Speaker 1: It was a great win by the boys, a great one. Speaking of Collingwood, Fitzy, were you happy that Scott Pendlebury got off on you know the good guy defense?
01:19:41
Speaker 4: Look, he always was.
01:19:43
Speaker 3: I mean, if there is a player that can ever take that defense, it's got Pendlebury. After four hundred and twenty one games, I suppose you could do it. But god to see how fired up Eddie McGuire has got during the week saying it was disgusting that they even signed.
01:20:00
Speaker 4: I had laugh at that. You've got more front than John Martin's that bike. Hey, mate, we'll rip it at the tips. So the seven games this weekend kicking off tonight Hawks v Swans at the mcg.
01:20:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, no Errol Gordon, no Isaac keeney. So the Hawks will win that game.
01:20:20
Speaker 1: Tip, make sure you tip the Hawks now.
01:20:23
Speaker 4: Mate. Tomorrow you're going to be You're gonna be gett along. Yeah, we're going along.
01:20:27
Speaker 3: I'm taking the boys along to that when Portland has got their first trial game. So yeah, that's going to be a great, brilliant game and I'm confident at home that will get up over the Bulldogs. So it's just it's so exciting, it really is and can I just say, you know, to see players like Braiden Cook Wayne Miller last weekend, like Braiden Cook, now cool come and collected that kid was and in traffic. It's just if we're going to go to the next level of the Crows, we need our second tier players to take it to the next level themselves and guys like that will win premierships for us.
01:21:10
Speaker 4: Then on Saturday, Tigers and the Suns. I'm going to go the Suns on that one.
01:21:16
Speaker 3: They're going to be very tough to beat this year.
01:21:19
Speaker 4: And the one we'd like to describe is the curtain raiser for Saturday nights South Australian five double A election coverage GWS the Saints. Yes, that is going to be a win by the Giants.
01:21:31
Speaker 3: That's an energy stadium, so I'm going to back them at home and.
01:21:35
Speaker 1: The D's in the West.
01:21:37
Speaker 4: Yeah, Freo will win.
01:21:39
Speaker 3: Win that one at home against the Demons.
01:21:41
Speaker 4: Then on Sunday Port against Essendon.
01:21:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I'm confident that port Our label bounce back. This is at home as well. They I know they didn't look too good last weekend, but they will turn that around.
01:21:56
Speaker 4: And look, the Bombers looked even worse. So I think port Our later win that game and then West Coast North in the west.
01:22:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to go North Melbourne to win two in a row, back to backs Melbourne, which the supporters haven't had for a.
01:22:11
Speaker 1: While over the first time in ten years.
01:22:13
Speaker 4: Good on your Fitzy. You hope it bumps in you tomorrow night mate.
01:22:16
Speaker 8: Good on you boys, have a good one.
01:22:18
Speaker 1: Walco the center of essays biggest cover up with their incredibly good looking walcom mesh Pool Cup.
01:22:24
Speaker 5: The state election is coming up and it's a voting centers are open all week thing until six pm Saturday voting. It's a good thing.
01:22:32
Speaker 6: Dvid pen Burbe and Will Goodings five double a breakfast.
01:22:39
Speaker 1: Twenty one to nine. We never put a limit on how many democracy sausages you could ask for on your barbecue. We sort of left it up to people's imagination. How many do you think you could sell? How many people come through and vote at your particular booth.
01:22:50
Speaker 4: We don't know this.
01:22:50
Speaker 1: We didn't want to put restrictions on people, so people just came to us with all sorts of numbers. Well, congratulations to Woodville Garden's Primary School for saying the biggest number. What are we chatting with Angela Ellis before nine o'clock this morning? Who they're going to have the biggest five double a breakfast, Democracy sausage barbecue on polling date would build Gardens Primary School. If they don't have any at your barbecue, go to their barbecue, because I reckon they have them. There would be chatting with them very very shortly. Should we do a couple of texts because we've got a lot of very thoughtful, interesting texts have been coming through. There's one text I.
01:23:22
Speaker 4: Want to talk about and I want to throw it over to you folks, because I'd love to hear if other people have got similar feedback. Somebody told us about an hour ago that apparently the park and ride in Gawla is absolutely chock a block, and you'd have to think that with fuel prices being what they are right now, with the possibility that they could get even worse, that we might be looking at the chilling prospect of three dollars a liter at some stage, the potential surge in public transport patronage as people absolutely colobbed by cost of living pressures. Rates went up again this week. People are going to start planning a life that does not involve their car. So if you have seen, if you've just noticed little things and you know in a way. The interview we did yesterday with the police commissioner was another of those sort of canary in the coal mine things. We're in the space of two weeks thirty seven percent increase in fuel drive offs. What are you seeing in terms of how many people there are on your bus, how many people there are on your tram, and particularly how many people there are on your train. Keep the text coming, it's actually a good intro to our next interview with Robert Simms, Green's MLC, who at this election the Greens are advocating. We know the Liberals are advocating fifty public transport fairs. Well, the Greens yesterday called for the government to make public transport free during the fuel crisis.
01:24:56
Speaker 1: Robert seems, good morning, and thanks for coming on the show.
01:25:00
Speaker 20: Morning, Thanks for having me.
01:25:01
Speaker 1: Did you that intrigue to you what I was.
01:25:02
Speaker 4: Saying about what our listeners are telling us about that made your sense that there's more people already doing this?
01:25:09
Speaker 20: Yeah, I did hear that, and it absolutely makes sense because you know, phil is just so expensive at the moment, and that's why the Greens have been saying at the National Cabinet meeting today there should be discussion around public transport and we'd like to see the federal government come to the party and actually make public transport free across the country as a short term measure during this crisis. But if that doesn't happen, and I hope that Premier al Anauskis will make that case today, But if that doesn't happen, then I think the next government needs to step up and pick up the tab as a short term measure, the next state government to provide some relief to South Australians at the moment.
01:25:46
Speaker 11: Now.
01:25:47
Speaker 20: I recognize though, of course, that in some regional areas they're really poorly served by public transport, and so you know, it's not really an option for those people to leave the car behind, but for people living closer to the city, public transport can be a real option, and those people leaving the car at home then freeze up the fuel supply for others that don't have that flexibility. So I think free public transport really makes sense in that context. But we're also calling for more frequent and accessible bus services as well. To be put on by the government at this time too, just to really try and relieve some of that burden.
01:26:21
Speaker 4: I know the Greens always get accused of having a magic money try rob but when you think about I mean, one of the reasons our state is looking at a fifty billion dollar debt is because of the huge cost of the North South sorry, the South Road Torrents to Torrens upgrade. There's a multi billion dollar project. Do you think that there's a philosophical argument that we've spent too much on roads and not enough on trains and buses?
01:26:50
Speaker 8: Oh?
01:26:50
Speaker 20: Absolutely, absolutely. I think you look at the amount of money that's spent been spent on that. It's been about eight billion dollars of state government money, about the same from the federal government and no return to public transport infrastructure. And think of what we could have done if we use that money to transform our transport network here in our days. So absolutely, you know, people talk about costings and how you're going to pay for these things. Let's not forget at the start of the election campaign we had the Prime minister here in town splashing thirty billion dollars into Orcust and making submarines. I mean The point is governments can find the money when they want to, and I believe that this federal government's made the decision to back the war in Iran and back the United States. Well really they should step up and pick up the tab and part of that is supporting South Australians that the bowser with some relief and free public transport goes a long way to doing that.
01:27:45
Speaker 1: I think I certainly can find the money. The question is whether they should. Do you have any concerns, Robert Simms about simply adding fuel to the inflationary fire in Australia at the moment by state governments spending more on measures like this.
01:28:00
Speaker 20: Oh no, look I don't. I think we have a serious issue with inflation at the moment, of course. But one of the big problems I think is the mega corporate profits and they're just not being rained in. It's pretty terrible that the way that we're managing this crisis at the moment is ordinary people having to carry the burden through higher mortgages, higher rants, a higher cost of living in general. Meanwhile, you've got big corporations making massive profits and getting off scot.
01:28:30
Speaker 1: Three in terms of lending costs, more for them too cost.
01:28:36
Speaker 20: A lot of people making big profits at the moment, so I think giving South Australians some relief at this time really makes sense. The other thing i'd say, in terms of trying to reduce congestion though, that the Greens have been advocating for for some time too is protecting the right to work from home. And we'd like to see a legislative protection for South Australian public sector workers to give them the right to work from home for one day a week unless there's a really good reason not to do so. And of course some jobs can't be performed from home, but working from home at the moment too would relieve some of that pressure on infrastructure like public transport and also reduced cost of people if they can stay at home and not have to use their cars.
01:29:18
Speaker 4: Hey, I've just finally before we let you go, there's been many elections in the last decade where the Greens have been giant killers, where the impact that you've had on the coalition vote. Thinking when Scott Morrison lost his job as Prime Minister and every third person at the Burnside village suddenly tapped into their inn in a greenie and we're voting for you guys, but you've sort of been a bit overshadowed by the re emergence of Handsoenism at this election campaign. Do you think the Green vote is going to hold up because you still seem to be a solid You're good for a good ten to twelve percent in all of the poles still.
01:29:57
Speaker 10: Yeah.
01:29:57
Speaker 20: Look, I think what's really interesting is it looks like most parties have been taking a bit of a hammering in the pulse. The Greens haven't. Our support is steady and I can tell you've been out and about on pre poll this week. There is a lot of support for the Greens, in particular in the Adelaide Hills and Hyston. There was a lot of people taking Greens out of votes and very excited about our message there. And you know, talking about public transport rail to the Hills is a huge issue in that community and the Greens are the only ones that are talking about that during this campaign. So I feel very excited about the days ahead. I think we're going to have a strong showing on the weekend.
01:30:34
Speaker 1: Robert Simms, Green's MLSA, thanks for joining us this morning.
01:30:37
Speaker 20: Thanks.
01:30:38
Speaker 4: I thought that was going to turn into a head to head Sims v. W. Goodings is real Goodings quite hard him.
01:30:49
Speaker 1: Sometimes you know you just got to agree that your vastly different philosophies on which as side democracy.
01:30:57
Speaker 4: I enjoying it, yelling at we all everyone agreed to disagree, exactly right. Let a thousand blossoms blown exactly right? All right, it's a twelve minutes. Should we read some texta otherwise we going to talk sausages on the other side of the break. Adrian's upset your reckons, I say um too much, Adrian, if you don't like it. In change channels, a lot of people talking about trains. Mark in Aberfoyle Park says, I can cur the Adelaide station when a few trains arrive at eight point thirty in the morning is absolutely chockers and Mike and Woodford reckons. He's got the answer. He got his treadly out of the shed and he's decided that riding to the way to do it. You feel better if you ride your bikes. To ride my bike everywhere. I didn't even get my driver's license til I was like twenty because I was a bike guy.
01:31:44
Speaker 1: I loved it. Producer, you should all get our bikes out produce. A pat physically recoiled when you mentioned someone should just listened to another channel. He was a physical impact, he looked as he turned green. Yeah, and you said you did threaten to quit earlier. There's just some red flag to David, we're gonna have to have an intervention after the progress.
01:32:04
Speaker 5: The state election is coming up and it's a voting centers are open all week thing until six pm Saturday, voting.
01:32:11
Speaker 13: It's a good thing.
01:32:12
Speaker 6: David Penberthe and Will Goodings five, double a breakfast.
01:32:19
Speaker 1: Seven to nine. We are what forty eight hours away from election day, the day that it'll probably be in a couple of hours time that the sausages start sizzling on barbecues right across South Australia. And look, David, a bit like animal farm. All sausages are created equal, but some are more equal than others, and ours are the most equal by that measure, Sorry, George, orwell they the Najobe Beef, Democracy lamb should I say democracy sausage? All thanks and Njobi from their award winning farm to your table and Najobe delivers premium fresh beef and lamb ethically, locally, effortlessly najob dot com dot are you. The best sausages you will get on election Day will be those that are the five to blow breakfast democracy sausage. One of the places where you'll be able to get them is the wonderful Woodville Gardens Primary School Barbecue, which has been expertly curated by Angela. Angela. Good morning to you.
01:33:12
Speaker 4: Good morning, So Angela, you are going to be absolutely flat chat. How many actual barbecues are you going to have there at Woodville Gardens to cook all of these things?
01:33:21
Speaker 10: Well, I've only got one barbecue, like a trailer with two barbecues on each side, ones vegetarian and one for our meat side. But I've got the best chef on the block.
01:33:33
Speaker 4: Is that your husband or one of the parents.
01:33:36
Speaker 10: I wouldn't let him do that. It's the Rotary Club of Regency Park and we're actually hoping some teachers will turn up to help us. But we're raising funds for the school for the kids, so that we can help them to have those little extras that you have at school, because education is so important and it's the one thing nobody can take away from you.
01:34:03
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, absolutely, And Rachrey do such an important and excellent job helping the community, helping schools, charities, all of that. So great to hear that they're involved too.
01:34:13
Speaker 10: Yeah. No, it's our absolute pleasure to help that community and those kids.
01:34:17
Speaker 9: They're beautiful kids.
01:34:18
Speaker 10: And we were down there doing a barbecue a couple of weeks ago, and it was great to see those beautiful kids. They're beautiful manners. They're just bright smiles and just getting on with life and being wonderful contributing members to our community in the future, we hope.
01:34:34
Speaker 4: Yeah, is this the first time you've been involved in the Democracy Sausage barbecue, Angeline, Or did you do it for.
01:34:40
Speaker 1: The federal election too?
01:34:42
Speaker 10: We did it for the federal election, and we had a lot of banter. We were all grateful that we didn't have to vote for Trump.
01:34:52
Speaker 1: Be careful, some of our listeners.
01:34:57
Speaker 4: We have a great day. You're very commune, needy minded thing that you're doing, and we're just proud that, thanks to n JB, we're able to help by giving you a whole truckload of snags about.
01:35:06
Speaker 1: Poor right, Angela's husband getting the drive by too. You no good on the barbecue. Oh, you never know when you get to cock it well. Exactly right, coming from exactly that's me the morning I've had some of.
01:35:15
Speaker 4: The terrible, hurtful abuse that we've had to do with here.
01:35:24
Speaker 1: I might start weeping.
01:35:27
Speaker 4: Tenure in Craigmore, I've been catching the bus for years and now this week my bus has been absolutely full, and i'mmost waiting at the bus stop, getting to work late, getting home late because my bus drives past me with a full sign up. This has a huge impact on people already catching public transport regularly. Thank you for that tenure. We're going to try to get the Transport Ministrum tomorrow about this because there's a story here.
01:35:49
Speaker 1: And then most definitely is let's ely got the fuel situation, because that's the genesis of it all. It's better to be a member with raa road service. As suddenly as you were joking during the break, David, the most important segment in radio cotal. So despite a rise of about seven cents since yesterday, the Yugo Clearview is still the cheapest. This is really cheap all things considered. Two dollars twenty two point nine at the Ugo at Clearview. The mobile at blair Athol's pretty good to two dollars twenty four point nine. The average cost is around two dollars forty two thirty nine point nine is your average base level unleaded cost at the moment around the city diesel significantly high. The shell lugs bay is pretty good to sixty one point nine, but the average is about two dollars seventy nine point nine. And without wanting to alarm people, as I mentioned earlier in the program, overnight the oil barrel price has increased significantly considering where it's It's bobbled around one hundred dollars a barrel Brent crude over the last week or so. This morning, at one point it got up to one hundred and eleven. It's settled at about one hundred and seven. West Texas is up at around one hundred as well. That's the American measure. It's both. They've both gone up after bobbling around. So there's a little bit of nervousness in the oil market internationally around whether the straps are going to be reopened, about Trump making noises about leaving other countries to handle it themselves, and Iran's capacity to keep carrying out attacks on energy infrastructure. So this is a little bit nervousness there to look for in terms of if you've got concern there might be more petrol pain on the way.
01:37:12
Speaker 4: Clark has got no time for the Greens whatsoever on anything. He says they lost all credibility with their anti semudicatitude and should get off the activist bandwagon and get back to their original Bob Brown roots and a good one here from one of our country listeners. Listening to this chat about making public transport free during the fuel shortage is all well and good. How does that benefit rural communities that have no service or minimal We do not have the luxury of being able to hop on a bus or catch a train or tram.
01:37:41
Speaker 1: We're being forgotten. Does anyone have a solution? And rural community is most acutely affected by the diesel but the potential for a diesel shortage as well, that we all have a source of discussion today with that emergency cabinet meeting as well. Stick around, Graham Goodings is coming up after nine o'clock and we will catch you tomorrow from six o'clock on what will be election E.
01:38:00
Speaker 4: Bring it on, no more predictions, good footy game of getting through tomorrow night.
01:38:04
Speaker 1: More importantly, that is exactly right. We'll get you tomorrow morning.
01:38:11
Speaker 10: I was trying.
01:38:18
Speaker 4: Bounce half a.
01:38:21
Speaker 8: Personalized boy.
01:38:22
Speaker 20: I'd love to do it with you, mag It's straight
01:38:32
Speaker 17: Stree
