Sam Watson 0:12
Hello and welcome to the Sounding Board scorecard for Drinkwise. You won't miss a moment if you drink wise. My name's Sam Watson and I've got eight statements for Hutchie and Damo to rate out of ten. It was the twenty fifth anniversary of nine eleven last week. It is still the biggest news story of the twenty first century. Ten. Yeah, I'm gonna give that a ten two. The streaming wars have made watching T V worse than it was five years ago. One?

How do Hutchy and Damo rate the significance of 9/11 on its 25th anniversary?

Sam Watson 0:41
Seven. Melbourne's NFL game felt bigger than an AFL grand final on the day. Nine. Ten. The Melbourne NFL game was a win for those who love the daytime slot for the AFL grand final.
Craig Hutchison 0:55
Ooh, where am I?
Sam Watson 0:58
Seven. Live Gulf filed for bankruptcy last week. It would be surprising if the event in Adelaide is still held next year. Two. One. One nation is bringing Labour and the Liberals closer together than they've ever been.

What are Hutchy and Damo’s opinions on the current streaming wars and its impact on TV?

Sam Watson 1:12
Six. Seven. The NRL only managed to get ninety-four thousand people to their four finals games last weekend. They can't possibly claim to be a bigger game than the first. Yeah. Six He's got his
Craig Hutchison 1:31
conflicts here to go through. There you go.
Sam Watson 1:33
Lastly lastly, Australian social media users will be giving will be given new tools to turn off algorithm driven content with uh platforms facing fines of more than a hundred million dollars for non compliance. This is good legislation by the federal government. I'm
Craig Hutchison 1:49
gonna give that an eight, but given that it's the last statement you make, we I can now pass. Give yeah, of course you'd pass.

Why did the hosts say the Melbourne NFL game felt bigger than an AFL Grand Final?

Craig Hutchison 1:56
The statement itself is worth eight, but as if the federal government is is using it for anything other than personal gain. So th they will abuse and manipulate how that algorithm is actually able to be used. And that's my take on that, without taking sides on the political um spectrum. Yeah, ninety four thousand wasn't big on the NRL Hutchie, but uh yeah, it it it was I th there's no way they can spin that being a positive number.
Damian Barrett 2:22
Yeah, the counter to that though is that they are predominantly a television eyeballs sports supported by audience as opposed to the AFL which seeks to achieve both purposes.
Craig Hutchison 2:31
Or does achieve both purposes. Yep.
Damian Barrett 2:34
Uh also play in smaller venues. But they had uh granola active on the weekend as well.
Craig Hutchison 2:40
But I don't think they actually got near filling those smaller venues, did they? Well they had I don't think they've got to get some games into the bigger venues, don't they?

What score do they give to the LIV Golf Adelaide event and why might it not return next year?

Craig Hutchison 2:47
Yeah, what's the problem up there? Um anyway. Uh live golf. We both discussed that on the main body, but uh while the Adelaide event is is clearly under the live banner, I still expect it to go ahead given what I've been told or will well sorry, given what I've read. Uh yeah, we we both felt that the um NFL game felt bigger than an AFL grand final and it I look I'm a knight or at least a a A twilight, if not night, subscriber to an AFL Grand Final. On a Sunday, by the way, it should be said. But if you are a subscriber to the day slide, well my goodness, that was an endorsement of it.
Damian Barrett 3:18
There was an out there when Double asked whether the game felt bigger. If the question was the NFL game was bigger, what would you have said what would your number have been?
Craig Hutchison 3:27
I still would have given it a nine, I reckon. Yeah.

How will new Australian social‑media tools that turn off algorithm‑driven feeds affect users?

Craig Hutchison 3:30
It brought a different feel, didn't it? The but the people There was no division. Everyone was everyone everyone was happy. Yeah. Yeah. It reminded
Damian Barrett 3:38
me of going to a World Cup game. That's what every World Cup game's like.
Yeah.
Damian Barrett 3:42
That's the same feel as a World Cup game.
Craig Hutchison 3:43
Yep. I get this the premise of the streaming was statement.

How do the hosts wrap up the Scorecard and what final thoughts do they share?

Craig Hutchison 3:47
Um on the very few times I try and find something to watch in a very random hour, uh it's harder to find something that I've got. You're wrong about that. Streaming's made sport more accessible, much more. It said T V, not sport. T V. I I thought it was just general entertainment. That's all
Damian Barrett 4:00
I watch on TV. Sport, do you watch anything else?
Craig Hutchison 4:02
Occasionally I try and watch a bad movie, um, you know, just to just to pass time at eleven o'clock at night some nights, but uh couldn't find one last week and I looked and yeah, I think nine eleven is still the biggest by some way story of the twenty first century, even though it was a question without notice.
