HOST, WIDE WORLD OF RORTS: G'day, g'day and welcome to Wide World of Rorts.

CO-HOST, WIDE WORLD OF RORTS: And what a jam-packed summer of rorts we've had so let's get straight into in.

HOST: Indeed.

Well, it was great to learn that the local shooter's club in Wangaratta received that $36,000 grant from former sports minister, Bridget McKenzie and that's just fantastic news for members of that club such as former sports minister, Bridget McKenzie.

CO-HOST: Well, she would know better than anyone whether the club has merit and those clay pigeons, they don't pay for themselves.

Also in some fantastic news for the rowing club in Tony Abbott's electorate, they received half a million dollars.

HOST: Yeah, it was a real triumph over adversity there - the club triumphed over other clubs facing adversity.

CO-HOST: Which is what Australian rorts is all about.

HOST: Indeed, and I was particularly thrilled to see the rugby club in Adelaide that received half a million dollars for new facilities, including women's changerooms, despite the rugby club having no women's team.

Which is fantastic because this now means that those imaginary female rugby players no longer have to get changed behind imaginary trees or in imaginary cars in full view of imaginary perverts.

CO-HOST: They are a scourge and I think you'd also agree that it's terrific to see the government which for so long has argued in favour of merit-based approached to cabinet ministries, completely abandoning the approach when it comes to awarding sports grants.

HOST: It's almost like they only use that argument when it comes to imaginary cabinet ministries for imaginary women.

CO-HOST: Absolutely.

Well, that is our final siren for today's rorting highlights.

Here are a hew messages from our partners.

MAN: I'm an elite rortsman. When I need that extra bit of endurance to lift a particularly large novelty cheque, there's only one all natural, all placebo probiotics I trust and it's not the one an independent body told me has the most merit - it's Slush Vitamins.

Dig deeper with Slush.

WOMAN: When you're trying to speed up the rorting process by colour coding your spread sheets by political party, you can't afford any mistakes.

Always use the Pantone rorting guide book.

WOMAN: I always tell our customers the bigger the barrel the more pork you can fit in there.

MAN: Extra-large pork barrel just $500,000 of taxpayers' money. If you find a cheaper way to win a marginal electorate, we'll beat it by 10 per cent.

Barrel warehouse - lower ministerial standards are just the beginning.
