Hi Roy and HG.
What a disappointing blow to our Hockeyroo’s last night. They played extremely well but couldn’t seem to get over that line which they came so close. As I am not a regular Hockey enthusiast, I was surprised to see Alf from ‘Home and Away’ coaching on the sidelines, what a great Aussie ambassador!
I am also curious as to if you can shed some light on the Great Britain situation. After ‘Googling’ Great Britain, England and The United Kingdom, I was dumbfounded that Great Britain, who is compiled of England, Scotland and Wales, are all competing under the same banner! What a bunch of cheats! That’s 3 different countries! What the hell is going on? Maybe we should give the New Zealanders a better result every year by combining with them ourselves called ‘Greater Australia’ or something along those lines. Please let me know how they have been getting away with it for all these years.
Regards,
Dave Hall from Dampier
I have had word that Rooting King Adios and his esteemed rider have been given the call up for the jumping final? Will this swing the odds in Australia's favour........What a swansong it would be!!!!!!
hello Roy and HG fans and hopefully this might get your attention. Could have emailed Jules and um well I got a bad memory so this is the best I could find from the old google thingy. Great show I listen to it whilst milking the goats in the morning, which have Ozzy collers on, sorry they where a cheep deal at the 2 buck shop but anyway puts us in the spirit. Heard you mention Ringwould Cuckatoo the other day I am sorry we haven't got one by that name but we got a few others, the closest relative to Jaguar we got is his nephew. Unfortuanlely his sisters all clogged up inside. This is Ringwould Iam John the son of the owners and yes I wish to exploit this. Seriously we got some big plans here and if I could share them with the world on your show I'd be very happy. We only wish good our plans for world domination are iminate, we only wish good for you and all fare people. So If you want to know anything I am pretty sure I was the first to ever ride Ringwould Jaguar and I am having recolections of telling my folks that he is a good one. Anyway get in touch or if some one can direct me to a good way to get in touch It would be great Ringwould a place to grow in the 'Great Southern'
Hey guys, just wanted to bring to your attention, Natalie du Toit, swimming the 10km event at the olympics, and will become the first female amputee swimmer ever to qualify for the Olympics.
Just seems like the kind of underdog that Australians could really get behind, and I'd like to see some support for such a fantastic story.

CONSPIRACY - MEN's Eights
Hi Roy & HG,
I'm writing to you from my current local in Ottawa, Canada. Home of hockey, hockey, hockey more hockey and beavers.
Like Americans, Canadians also like to cross their southern border to a third world economy for a holiday and some cheap shopping on the back of a weak currency, so off we went recently to Newport, Rhode Island, former home of the Olde Mug. While in Newport we had the opportunity to cruise one of the cappacino strips in Newport where I saw a troubling thing.
There were two blokdes at a table in a cafe, one really large bugger, and one really small bloke, a bunch of big securtiy guys surrounded the table. It took me a while to make out who it was, but if I'm not mistaken it was Dennis Conner who was sitting with a smaller bloke wearing a Chinese Rowing team shirt. Dennis appeared to be showing the Chinese bloke a brochure on scuba equipment, his hand gestures seem to indicate ways to get down underneath boats to take a look and perhaps cause some mischief.
I tried to get a closer look at what was going on but my cover was broken by my Men at Work tape I had blasting from my car stereo.
Unless I am mistaken, take a closer look at our boy's Eight before the start of their heat earlier this week, I think that you will see some bubbles coming from under the boat, right before the start, and right before the whole thing went pear shaped and buggered their heat - clearly someone was under our boat!
I think that this not only sends out a warning to the Aussies, but also our kiwi mates - should they get paired up against the French at any point they should watch out!
Yours in sports,
Martin from Freo

PS - Looking forward to Jan 09 when the Doctor will once again tell me it's time to hit the water for some wind action!
Gutted Gutted Gutted - no Flat Bags, Battered Savs n not one Hello Boys. Geez, what is going on? Love youse guys heaps. Channel 7 you suck big time...
Love and peace meatfreaks
I have forgotten all of the wrestling and gymnastic moves.
The commentators they have now are clearly dodgy, they haven't referenced the ancient greek plates once!
It's actually "Rampaging Roy Slaven" to my understanding... but yeah, sure, whatever man.
BUT to the point, I agree with most of everyone here; the Dream (or whatever its name for this Olympics shall be) should go on - I mean, its the only thing that makes the Olympics good XD
I have been wathcing since I was 8! =0 Amazing.
Roy, HG,
The reality of the Olympics without the Dream has only now started to sink in.
I'm going to miss Jacques Rogge.
We'll get plenty of party line, but not much party.
The Dream should live on.
Hi Guys,
Missing your witty banter this Olympics... but will have to tune in to Triple J! It's just not the Olympics without your insightful and witty commentary!
howo roy and G wee rrr berryappy 4 you be in hour great cunt tree go china oh oh oh.
Bloody hell What kind of "arse clown" Would not have Red hot Roy and hard hitting HG on the 2008 olympics ? What a smog filled non event. I will turn off the box and get on the job for 14 days straight in protest !
Dear Roy & HG, Hope everyones well.
Just a comment about This Sporting Life Podcast dated the 20th July 2008, there has been alot of talk about our NRL stars leaving and going overseas to play their footy for more money. Should we place regulations on these players such as: life ban as roy mentioned, i think this can be debated in relation to our socceroo stars aswell, should people like the big dukes go overseas or play for the A-League, another point is why are we bringing people like romario from Brazil to A-league when we cant even keep good old harry and then he states he might play in turkey...just doesnt make sense, and if they do go overseas should they recieve this life ban from the A-League or even playing for the socceroos all up.....much to be debated about, I wonder what Roy & HG think about this, or on a more negative note what craig foster would think about this proposal. (hehe)
Best Regards,
Mile Stojcevski
GREAT SHOW!
Heads up....
Felt it essential to alert you to the fact that Roy's long-running feud with The Shark seems to have taken an interesting new twist. Buoyed perhaps by his impressive showing at The British Open (for 3 days at least), Shark has now thrown down the gauntlet by attempting to muscle in on Roy's dominant market position in the signature smallgoods arena.
See the new Shark Aussie Prime website:
http://gnaprime.com.au.
Personally. I think the "Greg Norman Premium" looks to be a rancid joke, particularly since he seems to be delivering it in recycled golf ball boxes....
Hello Boys,
I have heard through several sources that i have been featuring on your program of late. I feel it might be about time for us to finally catch up and have a chat. I did try to come through the ABC switch recently on a Sunday but no one answered the phone! Aren't you guys paying the receptionist anymore?
Anyway, I leave with the Sailing Team on Thursday the 24th July on our quest for Qingdao glory (yes, we are all carrying new AIS/CSIRO designed algae cutting appendages to our equipment) and you can contact me initially by email at Kleppich@optusnet.com.au if you please.
Kepp up the good work
ps : I am visiting Russell Lea Primary School tomorrow, the place where it all started!
a Kleppich tilt update
after hearing the show re the kleppich tilt last week i thought i would update you.
lars competed in the mens sailboard in the 2000 and 2004 games.
this time he is going to hsi third olmypics but as a coach. he is coaching jessica crisp in the female sail board. jess also represented at the 200 and 2004 games. she finished 5th in athens and scored bronze in the 2007 world champs and 2007 olympic test event with lars as her coach.
lars is still living in the five dock area and can sometimes be seen tooling around on iron cove on a sail board
Roy and HG,
Love your work on "This Sporting Life" and the coverage of State of Origin last week. I noticed on the coverage of the game you boys thought to inspire the BLUES this season, a blue cattle dog needs to be brought back as the teams mascot.
I have blue cattle dog named "Fooey" as in Moi Moi, who would suit the job. He's madder than "Maddog MacDougall, can do the "Shimmy, Shimmy, Whoosh!", Smarter than "The Brain's Trust" not affraid of a "Stinkfist" and responds when someone yells "Fire up Bitch!". I think "Fooey" could add "The Brown Polish" to the BLUES under "The Triple J Card Table" Game 3, as part of the "Hundred year of Hate!" at "The Grand Old Girl".
PS. Fooey is not afraid of lifting his leg at any moment, so I would beware under the "Card Table" as you could end up with a wet foot!
PSS. Looking for a new set of wheels, what is "Frosty" number, I'd be happy to try out the "No toot, No root" offer!
Remember too much sport is never enough, Bye now!
