Hello and welcome to the Sounding Board Scorecard for DrinkWise. You won't miss a moment if you DrinkWise. My name's Sam Watson and I've got eight statements for Hutchie and Damo to rate out of ten.

Why do Hutchy and Damo say it's counterintuitive to tell crowds to stop booing?

Sam Watson 0:21
It's counterintuitive to tell crowds to stop booing.
Craig Hutchison 0:26
That's a good statement.
Sam Watson 0:27
Six.
Craig Hutchison 0:31
Requires deeper conversation though.
Sam Watson 0:33
Soccer is the best sport to watch at a pub or bar.
Craig Hutchison 0:36
Zero.

Which sport do they think is best to watch at a pub or bar and why?

Sam Watson 0:38
Four. We'll see less of the games, by the games I mean footy, best players taking part in State of Origin over the next few years. Two. Three.

Will we see fewer star players in State of Origin games in coming years?

Sam Watson 0:52
An Ashes match in India would be a great idea. Six. Seven.
Eight.
Sam Watson 0:58
The AFL should try having both coaches in post-game press conferences at the same time. Zero.

Could staging an Ashes match in India be a good idea for cricket fans?

Sam Watson 1:03
A bit of audio from Elon Musk in his interview with The Economist here.
Unknown 1:09
I mean, some people do loathe you.
Elon Musk 1:10
Yes, some people do.
Unknown 1:11
But do you understand why? Do you think what you're doing is helpful for Western democracy?
Elon Musk 1:16
Maybe some people do loathe me.

How does Elon Musk's interview highlight the media's perception problem?

Elon Musk 1:17
And that's probably true. I don't care. But the fact that a quarter billion people follow me is that I think a lot more people actually like me than don't. And I think a lot more people hate you and the media more than you realize. Do you realize the media is despised?
Sam Watson 1:33
Overall, the media doesn't have a good grasp on what the majority of people think of them. Three. Eight. It seems that interest in the Commonwealth Games is at an all-time low. Zero. One. And a bit of audio from Lance Armstrong here.

What do Hutchy and Damo conclude about interest in the Commonwealth Games and cycling dominance?

Lance Armstrong 1:53
May not be the most entertaining thing when it comes to watching a three-week event, but it's a fact. He's the best of all time, and I would even say he is the most dominant athlete in the entire world.
Sam Watson 2:04
After claiming his fifth Tour de France title with another three weeks full of record-breaking performances, Tadej Pogacar is the most dominant athlete in the world. One. Five.
Craig Hutchison 2:17
Could not care about cycling.
Damian Barrett 2:19
That's the reason I'm giving that answer. We only care about the news cycle here. Ah, clever. On the scoreboard, so I don't know enough about the Tour de France, so I sat on the fence. I think the Commonwealth Games have done a great job of getting interest, even though we've had some – it's always going to be a bit of a challenging one because it's not here. Elon is right. People don't like the media and we don't want to hear it. No, but I think the media does know what people think of it, though, don't they?
Craig Hutchison 2:47
You think so?
Damian Barrett 2:47
Yeah. I think the smart ones do. The AFL should, both coaches doesn't work and they'll just get them more watered down. Ashes in your love of left field. Oh, I do. Yeah. Origin, the AFL keep forcing players to play as they should. Yep. I think there's, I think NFL is the best sport to watch in a pub or bar. Yeah. And I think you do need to tell people when they're out of line that you, to stop. And I think you need to have a conversation about it. The booing you're talking about. Yeah, yeah. I'm believing that.
Craig Hutchison 3:15
Yeah. It's a nuanced conversation and it's a good statement to make in the scorecard, but it's a conversation that would take minutes to properly explore. But I gave it six because I think there's also an element too that people being told what they can and can't do by others is the reason they then go and do what they're being told not to do. That was, thank you to W, the scorecard for the sounding board for Drinkwise. You won't miss a moment if you drink wise.
