1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: Well, here we are, all the necessary adjustments to being made.

2
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: We're all in our various kits very much an oasis

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:09,799
Speaker 1: for them to start. Well.

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 2: Oasis was when we recording this last night, bloody Oasis.

5
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:13,039
Speaker 2: I was out there.

6
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: How good was it? Oh? Mate?

7
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 2: Best? Not only the best concert I think I've ever

8
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 2: been to. I think it was the best thing I've

9
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 2: ever done. I got to do it two nights in

10
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 2: a row as well. I was happy. I'll tell you

11
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 2: what though, scratchy this morning, dustier than a bloody ceiling fan.

12
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: Isn't funny me? You go out like you can. You

13
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,880
Speaker 1: can stay out, you can be at home with mates

14
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: and get on the drink and got a bet of

15
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: two o'clock. But even when you go out and about

16
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 1: like a night like that where you getting shitloads of

17
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: adrenaline and dopamine, then you go get home about twelve thirty,

18
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 1: just go. I woke the next day like yeah, after

19
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: Oasis and just went oh because we went Friday night

20
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: and then you went Friday Saturday. Mate. I've often thought

21
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: this coop and I've had I've said it to sometimes

22
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: to people, and people who just laughed at me. I

23
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: don't know if they like anymore. I think Liam Gallagher

24
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: is the greatest frontman of all time.

25
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 2: I'm with you the stage present, because so many bands

26
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 2: like they've got the big runway through the middle, or

27
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 2: you've got Taylor Swift who emerges through the air and whatnot.

28
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: Sometimes he just stands up there, you know, rather rayin

29
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 2: Hale or shine. He's got a rain jacket on, he's

30
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 2: got a tambourine which he just puts around his neck

31
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,839
Speaker 2: or on top of his head, and he doesn't even move,

32
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 2: just puts the hands behind the back, leans into the

33
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 2: mic and then he just strolls off. When he's not singing,

34
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 2: He's just good.

35
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: He presents himself with a real sense of menace, which

36
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: rock and roll is about.

37
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: Hey, rock and roll will never die. And what I

38
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 2: loved so many Pommy listeners of Backstage and the family

39
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 2: potty out there on the second night, mainly because on

40
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: that first night we were kind of in a bit

41
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 2: more of a less public section. We were in our

42
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: own little bit. But second night, when I was walking

43
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 2: through Holy Smokes, the amount of people that were coming

44
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 2: through all these Pommies, a lot of people giving it

45
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: to me because I was wearing a Man United Jersey.

46
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: Hen's why Jack's wearing his Oasis man Man.

47
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 2: City certainly is. But make the amount upon me listeners

48
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 2: that were just going love Backstage, Love, Yeah, Love, Family Podcast, Hate,

49
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: Trish Love the Family Podcast, Fucking Marti's fucking sick?

50
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: Is your dad?

51
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 2: Let me tell you something. Your dad is one of

52
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: the biggest way because I've ever met my love.

53
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: How do you know we got you most morning?

54
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 2: A lot of people. Actually you must, you must have

55
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: quite a presence in England because a lot of people

56
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,839
Speaker 2: come out going mate love you love your old man.

57
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 1: Do you know like the band Oasis with the head

58
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: discarding that tailorly because I really enjoyed that rub on

59
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: the belly.

60
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 3: One other question that.

61
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: Like our family we have, we have championed Oasis through

62
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: thick and thin. I will say that like I first

63
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: found Oasis, I'll hang on.

64
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: I was.

65
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 1: I discovered them with Alan McGee in a nightclub. No,

66
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: it was, I was over on. I was over in

67
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: the UK on a on a rugby league tour, playing

68
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: over there in the World Cup. Who knows they will

69
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: blend in but and I thought that definitely maybe album

70
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: and well, just after it came out, I remember listening

71
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 1: going because people tip me off because I'm a huge

72
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: Beatles fan, as most people are, and they said, no,

73
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,799
Speaker 1: I've got to listen to this young band. It's just

74
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: a merged in England. They're going like the Manchester band.

75
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: They're going north and Mellion miles an hour and had

76
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: to listen and went, holy.

77
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 2: Shit, So hang on, let me backcheck one second. So

78
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 2: what you're saying is at this stage, no one in

79
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: Australia knew about Oasis.

80
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 1: No, no, people in Australia were just I don't think coop.

81
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: Oasis didn't really hit big in Australia until the second

82
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: album What's the Story in Morning Glory? Because when the

83
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: Wonderwall came out, that's the one that really launched them worldwide.

84
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: They've kind of a huge act in the UK, in the

85
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: parts of Europe on definitely maybe they're their their initial album,

86
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: but the big one was when definitely, when What's the

87
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: Story of Morning Glory came out, it sent them in

88
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: a completely different tracks.

89
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 4: What I hear in my head is that you're calling

90
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 4: yourself an og cobber.

91
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, yes, I am the original and I used to

92
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 5: play the music to people and they go I mentioned

93
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 5: Oasis and people gave fucking wankers.

94
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: Asked Phil Bailey about this, right, I'm going to do

95
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 1: something for you. So I went away and I made

96
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: a forty minute tape of all the Oasis songs all

97
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: blended together. Said listen to that, and he straightaway.

98
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 2: How do you make back then making a tape? What

99
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: did that entail?

100
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: You'd have two stereo. You'd have one stereo with two

101
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: cassette sort of entries, and you put them both in

102
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: and you put one in record, another one in play

103
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: and one would record the other.

104
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 2: Well, and how long did that tell you?

105
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 1: A full day? A full day holy shit, dedicated to

106
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: the cause. Wow?

107
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 2: And do you know who's doing the Who did the

108
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 2: preact over in the UK was the Verve Bittersweet Symphony

109
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 2: Richard Ashcroft.

110
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: Yes, we get wiganer, Wigan boy.

111
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 2: Didn't you say that when you playing at Wigan? He

112
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 2: was cleaning the pool that you guys.

113
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,359
Speaker 1: Used to when we used to we used to do

114
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: after a game sometimes we go to the Wigan bars

115
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 1: and the man who ran Wigan Bars was Richard rass

116
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 1: Cross's father, and saw him there once. He was just

117
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: sort of mopping the floor and carrying on. Pretty troubled

118
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: sort of guy, but he's come through the other side now.

119
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 2: I think most rock stars are quite troubled. Yeah, you

120
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 2: know I would say that.

121
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. But and what was a Ballpark Music? That

122
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 1: was the support band. I thought they were really, really good.

123
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: I was a disappointed in Melbourne. It was Emmel and

124
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: the Sniffers. I was I was desperate to see Emmal

125
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: and the Sniffers. But Ballpark Music were very very good

126
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: as well.

127
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 4: Reckon amal and the Sniffers come up with that.

128
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 2: Name, I imagine, I don't know, yeah, I think they

129
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 2: had a dog rhymes with amial nitrate.

130
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: Best song boys, What do you reckon? Best song?

131
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,400

Speaker 1: Yeah?

133
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,240

134
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 4: singing what's the story Morning Glory? And everyone's wrong their

135
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 4: hands back and forth as they're saying it.

136
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 3: It was pretty cool.

137
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: A couple of the boots, I Bring It On Down,

138
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: was very very good, and the other one I really liked.

139
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: It's off the master play an album.

00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 2: the real fake fans would say like wonder Wall, like

143
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 2: wonderful for me, I don't really like like I would

144
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 2: never put wonder Wall on in the car and sing

145
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,080

Speaker 2: see wonder Wall. But like the one, the one of

148
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,880

00:06:58,400 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 2: underside of the penis.

163
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 2: It doesn't fit, goes up right to the back of you.

164
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 3: Now.

165
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the lyric in Live Forever is we'll see

166
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 1: things they'll never see. And I thought, you know, we've

167
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: been through a fair bit of life experience. There's a

168
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: lot of families are and I thought we should get

169
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: that tatoo.

170
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 2: I get it still, I swear I even when I

171
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 2: was out there yessay when they sung it, I was like,

172
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: I'll still get it.

173
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: I'll do it tomorrow.

174
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 4: This reminds me of them when when I was living

175
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 4: with Perc briefly for a period there before he went

176
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 4: to Catalan and all the way.

177
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, he got a we listened to while we're in

178
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 3: the COVID bubble.

179
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 4: We used to always play when you were young by

180
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 4: the Killers, and basically he heard the lyrics the Devil's

181
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 4: water it ain't so sweet, I don't have to drink

182
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 4: right now, and it pretty well changed his perspective on

183
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 4: a lot of things.

184
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 3: And he got a tattooed in the off season.

185
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: Wow. Wow.

186
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 2: My only problem is I wouldn't know where I'd get

187
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 2: a tattooed, and I'd be worried because I'm not not

188
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 2: in the quotation bubbles shape of my life, so I'd

189
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 2: be worried about like getting getting a lyric and then

190
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 2: shredding right up and then like it becomes all disproportioned.

191
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 3: I'm way about the opposite.

192
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,559
Speaker 4: I feel like you might get it now ways small,

193
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 4: and then as you get large, you probably warped the.

194
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 3: Heads or lyrics, the lyrics. What are you going to do?

195
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think maybe on like the back of

196
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: the arm, like the tricep. I could get it there.

197
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 2: Apparently the trice it hurts. Yeah, they reckon the ridge

198
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 2: and the lower bag hurts.

199
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 4: I've seen someone that got I got the camel on

200
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 4: their toe and they said that was pretty on the

201
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 4: top of their big toe.

202
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 3: They said that was pretty difficult.

203
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 2: Chase Blair Chase Blair on his so you sway for

204
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 2: Melbourne Storm used to wear the long sleeve Storm jersey

205
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 2: for those people who didn't know Chase Blair. On his

206
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 2: right toe he's got a toe. I mean he's got

207
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 2: a truck. So he's got toe truck like he's a

208

Speaker 2: truck tattooed on and then left big toe is a

209
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 2: camel for camel tooe. He thought it was so funny

210
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: every day in.

211
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 1: The locker rooms, all through that pain for that weak joke.

212
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 3: But it is.

213
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 2: It was what a great conversation start He's missing?

214
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 3: Is there anything else?

215
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 4: I finished with told that he's possibly he's missing that

216
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 4: he could get put on soon.

217
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 1: We'll love to think about that. In the meantime, you

218
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 1: mentioned the impact Oasis have had on music is pretty significant.

219
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 1: I mean we always think about them. We talk about

220
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: the bands that had an effect on Oasis. We talk about,

221
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: of course the Beatles, we talk about Stone Roses to

222
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: a Rory Gallaher and but the effect they've had another bands,

223
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 1: and the Killers are the best example of Brendan Flowers,

224
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: whose lead singer are The Killers. He was he was

225
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,120

227
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,720

228
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: the guy who was working with his mummy said, a

229
00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,080
Speaker 1: Brandon's a bit of a music fan. Made this a

230
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 1: band from the UK that have come. It must have

231
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: been enough to definitely maybe who are playing at a

Speaker 1: no worries, got him two tickets and he went and

234
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: watched Oasis in Caesar's Palace instead to change his life.

235
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 2: No way, they played at Caesar's Palace, seesze that would

236
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,439
Speaker 2: have been good. Yeah, oh, I still want to I'll

255
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: the North of England.

256
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:06,800

262
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: Let him join in. Okay, Ashes we win, Ossie's win

263
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: three nil over England. A lot of people who have

264
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: been asking me to give a bit of fooedback. Why

265
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: aren't they called Great Britain like in the old days

266
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: with the Ashes tour. Well, the reason is that they

267
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: have to be called England because they revert to the

268
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: name Great Britain. They don't get funding from the English government. Yeah,

269
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 1: why why.

270
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 2: Is it called the Ashes? Is there a reason for that?

271
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 1: Well? Do you know the original reason for the Ashes

272
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,839
Speaker 1: for cricket, don't you? Okay, So what it was? I

273
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 1: think it must have been not the first of a series.

274
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: What they did They burn at the Bales, Yeah, in

275
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 1: the first ever series and they put him into an

276
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: urn and that's what they're playing for the Ashes. Okay, right,

277
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: so we've just taken it off there.

278
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: I love because you know in the cricket the Ashes

279
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 2: trophy it's so small.

280
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

281
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 2: And you remember there was I think it was Tony

Speaker 2: he was going, oh, he's going look at him over there,

284
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 2: the crick he's holding up the ashes and it's so

285
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 2: funny how something so small can be so impressive, and

286
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,839

Speaker 1: fantastic three nil it's done. It's done a lot of

317
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: good things for the game over there, which is really important.

318
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: It could have been been a series the English had

319
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: just showed the divide between us, between US and the

320
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: and the English side, and and we never read our

321
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: very very best. I wanted it to be a really tight,

322
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: hard fought series. It wouldn't even worried me. It don't

323
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: sound un Australian if they didn't won, oh you know

324
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: what I mean, because you have the booster to give

325
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: the game. But my second one was hoping that, like

326
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: the eighty two and eighty six ashes, that we went

327
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: over there and our players showcased actually how good that

328
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: side potentially you know we're going to be and you

329
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: know people that look and just go wow, like, I mean,

330
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: how good is that? But we never quite got going.

331
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: I think part of it to coop Jack is the

332
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: reason in the old Kangaroo Tours, you go over, you

333
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: play about five or six club games before you play

334
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: the first test, then five or six cloud game, so

335
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: you've got you've got a lot of game time together

336
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: and a lot of time to form combinations where the

337
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: side really didn't getting up they didn't get a lot

338
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: of time to gel.

339
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 2: I think it, like you said, reflection on the England

340
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 2: team complay to Australia, but I think it's it's such

341
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 2: an indication of just where the soup like that competition

342
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 2: is at because that a lot of those ninety percent

343
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 2: of that team apart from Farnworth, Dom Young and Brimo

344
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 2: were people from the Super League and you could just see,

345
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 2: particularly with the attack, like the quality in the attack

346
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 2: and the footy IQ was so different because England, especially

347
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 2: Game two, they did a good job of like making

348
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 2: it ugly like it was always going to be like

349
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 2: if they could make it because they're really physical and

350
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 2: they could disrupt force a lot of error. They got

351
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 2: a lot of areas out of Tino in that game too,

352
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 2: because they're physical, they're strong and they can kind of

353
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 2: bring you down to their level and make it an ugly,

354
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 2: scrappy game. But with the footye, I think in three

355
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 2: games they scored only like two or three tries. They

356
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 2: just could not with the football, the quality of the attack,

357
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 2: the attention to detail and like the X factor. They

358
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 2: just didn't have what your likes of months to Harry,

359
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: Cleary and Walsh had.

360
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: A couple of the players that left out of the

361
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: squad Amaze meet. Now. I'm not sure whether it was

362
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: an injury, particularly with Maddie Nicholson. I'm not sure about that,

363
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: but two of the first forwards I would have picked

364
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: a fold Sean Wayne would have been Maddie Nicholson and

365
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: a young Blake who's a wig and young backrower at

366
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: junior in Noceumber. He is a very very special player.

367
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: On the app he maybe went off a little bit

368
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: as far as his form, but when we're in Vegas,

369
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: I tipped to people, I said, mate, you watched this kid.

370
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: It's just a powerhouse. And I was amazed that neither

371
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: of those players were picked. As I said before, I

372
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: don't know whether there was a slight injury, but Nicholson,

373
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: up until when he got injured a magic round mate.

374
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: He was the best background the competition just outstanding player

375
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: Matt in Nicholson.

376
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe They've got so many good talented players

377
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 2: in England right who probably aren't getting noticed because the

378
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: competition does have as many eyes on it and it's

379
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 2: not as quality competition. But you see when some of

380
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 2: those players come to the NROL, they make a real

381
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 2: impact and they at like even when Johnny Bateman came over,

382
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 2: like the imput that they can make to an NRL team.

383
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 2: It's just about getting that same culture environment and competition,

384
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 2: particularly in the coaching ranks as well, Like the coaching

385
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 2: in Australia are so good, like it is so good

386
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: at the NRL level that if they can sort of

387
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 2: replicate a lot of that cultural stuff and take it

388
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: over to the Super League and improve that competition, I

389
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,199
Speaker 2: think we'll see the Ashes become quality like it was

390
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 2: back in sort of eighties nineties.

391
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: In the nineties. Will keep just a little thing on

392
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 1: that which you may find interesting you and Jacob maybe not.

393
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: I find things interesting that surprise, surprise, no one does.

394
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: But if you look at the history of the English game, right,

395
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: and I think as told from Kangaroo Tours nineteen to

396
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 1: seventy eight we went over the Kangaroo Tour and it

397
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,160
Speaker 1: was a really tough hard foot series. When we went

398
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: back over in eighty two, it blew that we blew

399
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 1: them out of the water. Now, the question is why

400
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: what happened? Now that four years in between Australian sport

401
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,639
Speaker 1: we austra and ragularly went through a bit of a

402
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 1: revolution as far as diet, diet, nutrition, but also training,

403
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,160
Speaker 1: skill work, fitness, all those things. But the other one

404
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: that happened in between that time, crucially with state of

405
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: origin football emerged and that took our rugby league, your

406
00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: elop players to a completely level, another level or two up.

407
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: And so when we went over there these players and

408
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: made mind you we had a fair side. There was

409
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: a place like Steve Rodgers you wouldn't have seen played

410
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: who was made just a genius footballer. Malmoning Wally Lewis

411
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 1: in eighty two could not have made this starting lineup.

412
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: It was Stirling and Kenny. But that team when they

413
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: went over there, and this is what I'm talking about.

414
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: My wish was that side that went away could have

415
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,879
Speaker 1: been it's on paper one of the greatest Australian touring sides. Now,

416
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: if they'd have really got going. On one hand, you're

417
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: looking going, oh mate, this is bad for England, We're

418
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: beaten them by forty points. But on the other hand,

419
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 1: I would have loved for the English public to sit

420
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: there and watch on the BBC and just gone, my god,

421
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 1: how good are these blokes? That would have been That's

422
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: a different kind of advertisement for the game, but a

423
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: great one.

424
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 2: The point you make there, I think a big part

425
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 2: of why, especially in these big representatives games you see

426
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 2: like Monster Cleary, Harry Reese Walsh, they go to the

427
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 2: next level. It'd be interesting to see the effect like

428
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,159
Speaker 2: State of Origins had with these players they practiced. They

429
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 2: get three games a year on this huge stage against

430
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: the best players in that comp and they get to

431
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 2: practice at an intensity of a game that is unlike

432
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 2: you can get a replicate a Club Land yep. If

433
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,199
Speaker 2: the Super League was able to replicate a State of

434
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 2: Origin s type thing like North England verse South England

435
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 2: where all the best players in that comp play against

436
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 2: each other for a three games series during the year,

437
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 2: I think you'd see a lot of improvement in those players,

438
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: like in the individual players that go there, because you're

439
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 2: being exposed to a really high level of football, and

440
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 2: I think you'd see a rapid improvement in those players.

441
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 1: They've tried before. They try to think called the War

442
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: of the Roses, which back historically, the War of the

443
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: Roses was a war between Lancashire and Yorkshire. They tried

444
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: that over there. They tried a state of origin concept

445
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: with all the Lancashire players now Lancashire, or all the players

446
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: from Wigan and Saint Helen's and Warrington and so on,

447
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: and all the Yorkshire teams were like teams like Leeds

448
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,439
Speaker 1: and Castleford and so on, and so that it just

449
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: never caught on. I never caught the imagination of the public,

450
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 1: and a lot of the public over there were going,

451
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: why are our best Why are they our best players

452
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: playing against each other?

453
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?

454
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: If that makes sense. It never the concept never took

455
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: off that they should. But the more we go over

456
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: and the more they come out here, the better it

457
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: is for their game. But I thought individually some of

458
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: the performances Munster was two things about Monster. I thought

459
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: his performances are outstanding. Crucially for Munster, he's adjusting his

460
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: game as he gets older. He's had the hip and

461
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 1: growing problems. He doesn't have that, saying that he's lost

462
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: a meter a speed which happens when you get past

463
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: thirty anyone, and weighed on but he's he'll love that.

464
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: But he's adjusted his game. Mate, He's playing a lot

465
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 1: smarter game these days. He's kicking game was outstanding. And

466
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 1: the other thing I loved to about Munster. I was

467
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: watching nine News the other night and there was a

468
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 1: mother there and it breaks heart, a young mother with

469
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,120
Speaker 1: her beautiful little son who was sitting in a whel

470
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,120
Speaker 1: chair who had brain cancer. And Munster went straight over

471
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: and like you know, shook the kid, give the kid

472
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: a cuddle and his mum. Then Keon Kalama Tonguey went

473
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 1: over as well. Then all the team come over. I

474
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 1: just thought, there are some things that are more important

475
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 1: than football, and so well, Dounder the boys over there,

476
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 1: because my understanding they've been doing. They did things like

477
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: that all the way through the tour. Were very well received.

478
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 2: Unsurprisingly, Yeah, they looked like they enjoyed themselves over there

479
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 2: as well. Looks like they were having a good time.

480
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 2: But well, you said, Munster, you know what I think

481
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 2: was good for why Monster excelled in that environment as well,

482
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 2: because those the English team don't really wrestle that much.

483
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 2: Like they hit very hard. They're physical, but they don't

484
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 2: slow the play the ball down like most Australian teams

485
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 2: do and what Monsters used to. So you saw, like

486
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 2: you said you saw while she saw Monster, you saw

487
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,399
Speaker 2: Harry playing out of his skin because they were getting

488
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 2: a lot of quick play the balls, like the attack

489
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 2: was so much quicker than they used to, which brings

490
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 2: Monster and those lads in it ree Whilsh was unbelievable

491
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 2: that try that he scored off the scrum in game three.

492
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: We just caught it.

493
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 2: Really wide, fifteen meters wide pass from Harry off the

494
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 2: scrum and then just goes left foot, left foot goes

495
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 2: over untaxed.

496
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 1: Well, the man who you watch, if you get back

497
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 1: and watch that right, what he does, he's so clever Ruse.

498
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 1: He'll sit opposite the bloke who's marked him like he's

499
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:27,400
Speaker 1: target defender. He'll sit opposite him, and that defender whose

500
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: opposite is acutely aware of Reese's speed. And so when

501
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: the ball gets fired from the scrum from Nathan, you

502
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 1: watch he fades, he fades, and when up like defensively.

503
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 1: Let people know you're supposed to go up dead straight,

504
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: bolt straight, and if he fades, he runs into another defender.

505
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: But Reese is so lightning quick that that defender loses

506
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 1: their nerve and actually starts chasing early, so that fade,

507
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: you watch him, he just goes check, check, and just

508
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: goes straight through.

509
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 2: They all over chase. They all have to come off

510
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,160
Speaker 2: sideways because he's just too quick for him.

511
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 1: Other than what an ambassador to mate, oh mate, But

512
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: like the way he gave himself to the public. Yeah,

513
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: you know it's good on him and a.

514
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 2: Bloody, handsome young boy at that other big news in

515
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 2: rugby leagues chez ar DC.

516
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 1: And just one moment. You can't mention him because people

517
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: give it to you to event all the time. But

518
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 1: well do Harry. I think it's in between Harry Grant

519
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 1: and Monster for the Golden Boot Now I think Harry

520
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 1: is a dog.

521
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 4: Just quickly before we actually do change topic. While we're

522
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,159
Speaker 4: in England at the moment, we haven't spoken too much

523
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 4: about the Ashes and about what's going on between the

524
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 4: NROL and the Super League.

525
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 3: It's going to get your.

526
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 4: Opinion cover what are your thoughts on the London Broncos,

527
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 4: the consortium that went over there getting bumped back. Do

528
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 4: you think it has something to do with the NRL

529
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 4: and the Super League maybe negotiating to get the deal done.

530
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 1: Well, it's interesting, Jack, because it seems as though that

531
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 1: franchise is going to be a no brainer. That's a

532
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 1: strange one, you know, Jack, I'll tear what it might

533
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 1: be because there's a real split over there in the

534
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: rugby league. Half of the clubs are really cool for

535
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 1: the NRL to take over the other half ago and no, no, no,

536
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: we don't need the We don't need the Aussies, we

537
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 1: don't need the NRL. Let's just for Joe Path. I

538
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: wonder Jack, given the fact that London appeared to be

539
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 1: going to be almost like a bit of an Aussie club,

540
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 1: if that makes sense, whether that was one of the reasons.

541
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 4: I was suspecting. Do you think if they're negotiating it

542
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 4: becomes a bit of murky If there's an Australian money

543
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 4: going towards a English side and then the Neral's looking

544
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 4: to buy the franchise as a part of a bigger deal,

545
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 4: does it become sort of like maybe the nroll in

546
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 4: that negotiation might be a bit of a bargaining chip

547
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 4: for for the English side.

548
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jack, I don't know. It's a really precarious situation

549
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: at the moment. Shane Richardson, he's very good operator, Richo,

550
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 1: and he spent a lot of time in England with

551
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: Gates hid Thunder excuse me emotional and then and then

552
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: Hull Richo's gone, and Richo pushed forward over there from

553
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: the people he's got associates over there to say, guys,

554
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 1: shortened the competition, like I'm sorry, narrow, eliminate a few

555
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 1: of the teams, knock it downwards to an eight or

556
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 1: ten teen competition. Let the NRLL take over and things

557
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: will start to change. They've gone the other way. They've

558
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: expanded now, in my opinion, expansion. I think it was.

559
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: I think it's crazy for them at the moment because

560
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,719
Speaker 1: they're going to look, they're struggling for depth already. Then

561
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: they've got another three or four sides that have come in,

562
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: and on top of that, we've got two sides coming.

563
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 2: In and I think even the like they're even struggling

564
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 2: with depth with the sides that they've got, and they've

565
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 2: got we've got a lot of talent and crop to

566
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 2: pick from where a super leg is struggling with depth

567
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 2: and talent right now.

568
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 1: And coops and you just know that P and G

569
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 1: and Perth are going to have there's a fair chance

570
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,919
Speaker 1: Perth is going to have quite a number of English players.

571
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, yes, all right, DC to the rooster's finally

572
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 2: been announced. Obviously it was a deal that was probably

573
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 2: done verbally about six months ago, but it's only just

574
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 2: been announced. Thoughts on it, mate, I'm a big fan

575
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 2: of it. I think it's a good decision. I think

576
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 2: it definitely makes them a premiership threat short term. M

577
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 2: what happens we Hugo Savala, I don't know. I don't

578
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 2: know where he's going to go. If he wants to

579
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 2: sit behind him for a year or two, you could

580
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 2: probably get a start somewhere else, though he.

581
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 1: Could somewhere else, but could you know, not so much

582
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: to sit behind him, It would be sit alongside him.

583
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 1: Like you know that three men walk three minutes? Yeah three?

584
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: You know, as we know it takes you need more

585
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: than just two sort of playmakers in that top seventeen.

586
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: So Hugo or one of them could push to assume

587
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: that fourteen roll. Hugo is going to learn and Sam

588
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: seim walking and learn a lot off DC, that's for sure.

589
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: And Hugo, the temptation for Hugo is to go, you know,

590
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 1: go mate, look I've proven myself, then you've got to

591
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: sign on this bloke. My advice to Hugo would be

592
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: just be patient. Mate, might bidy in new minutes and

593
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: all that, you know, but what it's going to do

594
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: in the long term is going to make you a

595
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: better footballer.

596
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,879
Speaker 2: I'm excited to see how the dynameterter in him and

597
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 2: Sammy Walker works because Samuel Hawker's obviously played half back.

598
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 2: He's on the right side for his kicking and that's

599
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 2: his preferred side, but he'll probably have to move over

600
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 2: to the left to allow Cherry on his preferred right side.

601
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 2: I'm interested to see how that dynamic was. I think

602
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 2: it's kind of good because Sam's not like Sam Walker

603
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 2: probably works better off the cuff as just a pure

604
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 2: reactor and just you know, early kicks using his footwork

605
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 2: when he sees tied defenders, whereas Cherry can probably assume

606
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 2: more of that steering them around the park role.

607
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 1: But as you've said before, but Cherry's best attribute is

608
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,360
Speaker 1: his spot. When you see that reactive role as well,

609
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: so you know it's going to be a real good

610
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 1: I'd say Trent Robinson, He's sitting out there going how

611
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: do I solve this equation? So I like to play

612
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 1: a sort of structured style of attack. But now my

613
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: two principal playmakers and organizers are brilliant ad lib reactive,

614
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,720
Speaker 1: reactive players. So how are we going to work this?

615
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,640
Speaker 1: You know, what are we going to do? It will

616
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 1: be intriguing.

617
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 2: I'd like to see it.

618
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: I think the change, I think the change in how

619
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: they may go about their football. I think it would

620
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: be really good for the Roosters.

621
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they've got James Tedesco, who's probably one of

622
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 2: the best ad lib footy players ever, quick play, that

623
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 2: just gets it and does his own things. So I'm

624
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 2: keen to see how those three work together. Cherry's played

625
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 2: a lot of footy with Teddy. This is actually I

626
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 2: caught up with Cherry during the week. Holy shit, he's

627
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 2: going to have the earliest preseason date that he's ever had.

628
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 2: I think he was about late November's. I think he's

629
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 2: kicking off. But he's a bloke that hasn't really, He's

630
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 2: done so many NRLD preseasons at mainly he hasn't been

631
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 2: back in November, probably since he was nineteen twenty years old.

632
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: I reckon and exciting for him. Mate, He's going to

633
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: walk into a brand new schoolyard he's established at Manly.

634
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 1: He walks in there. Everyone knows what Cherry's about. But

635
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 1: now he walks in, it doesn't matter. You know, people

636
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 1: will go, oh, you know, he's got nothing to prove.

637
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: Any person who walks into a new club, whether it's

638
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 1: Diego Maradona, Andrew John's, Dally Tree Evans, they all feel

639
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 1: they've got something to prove to their teammates. And that's

640
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: exciting for him.

641
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was a little bit like I don't know

642
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 2: what to expect. He was like the unknown of this

643
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 2: new Like I've never been to another club before. Like

644
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 2: so this new program, new gym pro like all these

645
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 2: different running techniques, Like there's so much, there's a whole

646
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 2: playbook he's got to learn as a halfback.

647
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it'll be your very best coop no matter

648
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: what it is. You need nerves, you need that apprehension,

649
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: that feeling, you got that little bit of fear and

650
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: that's what's going to give him this change. Walking into

651
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: that first daid of training, his guts will be rumbling.

652
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 1: It'd be like he's rookie again walking back into Manley and.

653
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 2: Little Ryan poopench Mounts and Ryan Papenhausen. Little Pappy has

654
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 2: immediately left the storm. There's the rumors of Rugby three

655
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 2: sixty after the next year when they start. I think

656
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 2: they start November twenty twenty six was when that competition starts,

657
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 2: So there's a lot of time in between. But he's

658
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 2: taken time off to just think about what he's going

659
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 2: to do. I mean me personally, no one perhaps knowing.

660
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 3: What he's like.

661
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 2: It actually wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't go to

662
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 2: Rugby three sixty, he doesn't play any of it.

663
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 1: Just wouldn't spruce.

664
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 2: If he just goes pulls a play, would not surprise

665
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 2: me at all.

666
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: He seems to me be a kid that as far

667
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: as on the peaking order of life rugby league s

668
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 1: it's about four or five.

669
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 2: He's got so much going on. He's smart, like he

670
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 2: knows his bloody like business and stock markets really well.

671
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 2: So I think in sex too. Yeah, back in the

672
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 2: day they'll stick in sex breeding. But I think he's Yeah,

673
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 2: I think he's keen to have success post football in

674
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 2: whatever he wants to do as well. So it wouldn't

675
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 2: shock me if that. I mean, he's quite young still

676
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 2: and he's still got a lot to offer. Would be

677
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 2: good to see him, potentially if he wants to go

678
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: to Rubby three sixty, be good to still see the

679
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 2: flying mallets still run around.

680
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: What are the boys saying that? Do they think he's

681
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: going to three sixty?

682
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 2: They don't know. They actually don't know. No one's really

683
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 2: Everyone's kind of like like, I don't know what he's

684
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 2: gonna do, But everyone sort of said the same thing,

685
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 2: like knowing peraps, you actually don't know what he's going

686
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 2: to do. Like usually you can make a guess and

687
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 2: it's quite easy, you know, like with chairs it was

688
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 2: quite easy to know knowing chairs, know he's still had

689
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 2: something to give that he was going to play on,

690
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 2: like he wasn't going to give it up, but with

691
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 2: perhaps quite unpredictable. Like I sit there and I was

692
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 2: thinking about it, and I go, I I wouldn't not

693
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 2: show me if he just goes. You know, I've had

694
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 2: I've had fun playing foot I've went a Clive Church,

695
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 2: I want a premiership. I've played over one hundred games.

696
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 2: Now I'm keen to do something else.

697
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: If it was to say to you Cooper that you'll

698
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: never ever talk to Ryan Pappenhausen again, like basically in

699
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: your life, he'll just disappear out of you, would that

700
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: surprise you, Uh? Not really.

701
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 2: I'd hope he doesn't just disappear because I like Paps. Yeah,

702
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 2: But he he is quite like an introvert and does

703
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 2: his own thing off the field. Like there was some

704
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 2: I remember there was a year there, but he'd had

705
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 2: a couple of head knocks at this stage. But like

706
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,239
Speaker 2: we didn't even see perhaps for like four months, and

707
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,239
Speaker 2: he was just kind of went and did his own thing,

708
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 2: did a lot of reading, had to have a lot

709
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 2: of blueberries for his brain because they're really good, Like

710
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 2: he was doing concussion stuff. So he just kind of

711
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 2: removed himself from like everyone and just did his own thing.

712
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 2: He's very He's not the kind of guy that would

713
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 2: just text you on the day off and be like

714
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 2: let's go do this, Let's go to this. Where most

715
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 2: of the boys are like that. He's quite a different

716
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 2: mold of rugby league player. But there's so many different

717
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 2: personalities and types and of rugby league club that's what

718
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 2: makes it up. But yeah, he is quite different in

719
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 2: that sense.

720
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: And on that note, just but my memory about like

721
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: head knocks put in a big cheered out to elikto.

722
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 2: Yeah that was that was.

723
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 1: Terrifying, man, Yeah, that was sickening what happened. Just man.

724
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 1: That was when when I was sitting he was sitting

725
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: on the bench and I looked and I said, the

726
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: true true you could to kind of look to see

727
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: this when you're sitting there and you see Oh man,

728
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 1: it was. It was frightening.

729
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 3: Yeah.

730
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 2: I look, I don't know the ins and outs of

731
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 2: the whole doctor protocol or that. I don't want to

732
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 2: question went on that. But when I saw that, I

733
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 2: didn't actually watch the game that tongue in game, but

734
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 2: when I saw Lehigh knock him head class there and

735
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 2: knock him out in the warm up, I thought geez

736
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 2: Ellies was out of the game before the game started.

737
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 2: And then when I heard what had happened after, I

738
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 2: was shocked that he played the game. Seeing the footage

739
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 2: that I saw, I was so shocked and I was

740
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: like he in my opinion, like I've seen a lot

741
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 2: of headaches. I'm no doctor, though I don't know what

742
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 2: test they did, but when I saw it, he should

743
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 2: not have gone out there, just from my opinion. But

744
00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 2: I'm no, I'm no doctor. You're not a doctor, no, no, no,

745
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 2: although I am a doctor of rugby league to go

746
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 2: his game off.

747
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: All bloody look. Yeah, I'm looking to second guess the

748
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: doctors and all the things that went on. We just

749
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: wish him all the very best because maybe it was

750
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: it was that was incredibly scary, And I think about

751
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: his parents sitting there game like watching. I imagine I

752
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: don't know that he actually played. The worries he feeling

753
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 1: may have been there, but I hope they were, because

754
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: to watch from afar, that must have been your worst nightmare.

755
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: The other one is paying housekeeps talk about isn't hasn't

756
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: like he was. He was mooded before that. They were

757
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: looking at him, but suddenly out of the blue, they're

758
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 1: saying they're offering him three million dollars a year, three six. Yeah,

759
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 1: and that the way it's been spoken about, a fat

760
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: com pleae. He's going to go sheeus. I hope not.

761
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 2: I hope not, because I feel like he's still got

762
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 2: so much a given regularly. I know he's, but Jesus

763
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 2: has done a lot for a bloke. He's the same

764
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 2: age as me, he's twenty six, and Pain has now

765
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 2: done everything in the game origin now on a Grand

766
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 2: final like he's he has got much left to prove,

767
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 2: like and seeing what he's I could definitely see him

768
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 2: going and playing in that rugby three like R three

769
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 2: sixty over? And I think, are they going to be

770
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 2: based out of Dubai coops?

771
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: Well, now you get to pick your address. Oh so

772
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,399
Speaker 1: you still think? I just I don't know. I'm looking

773
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: at it, like obviously there's a lot going on behind,

774
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 1: Like they don't tell the public everything, but they're going

775
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 1: to the franchises, franchises in Dubai Toky, London, London, Paris, Miami.

776
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 1: I was just going right, and they're saying they've got

777
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 1: a TV deal with YouTube. You know what I heard?

778
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 2: You know what I heard. I don't know what I

779
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 2: heard the other day, right, so this is now, Look, listeners,

780
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 2: all of our little back fences listening all right. I

781
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 2: just wanted to be knowing I am not like what

782
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 2: I say. I know a lot of you listen to

783
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 2: what I say, and you two did his gospel. But

784
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 2: I am not God, but this is what I inside herd.

785
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 1: So this is a revelation you've just said before not

786
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 1: a doctor. No, No, that blew me away straight away

787
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: because you put me in those antibiotics just before. And

788
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 1: secondly depositories and you tewish are the ones that go

789
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:20,799
Speaker 1: in your ass? Yeah, that's what's the pository and you

790
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: put it on the shelf. That's what they say.

791
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 2: That's what Shanda used to say. You poke it in

792
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 2: like you're at the post office and you know, you

793
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 2: put it in the thing go like that like you

794
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 2: know how the old post So you feel the suction

795
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 2: because we used to do it the silver bullet and

796
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 2: we would put it in and then Shandos said, you

797
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 2: just curl your index finger and just pop it on

798
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 2: the shelf to the left and then you'll feel the

799
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,720
Speaker 2: and they just take it off. Wow, straight into the gart.

800
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 1: I'll give that a gar. What was the point Cooper's

801
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 1: not a doctor and the other one was said, he's

802
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 1: not God. What was I about to say?

803
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, sorry, someone tipped me off saying that R

804
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 2: three sixty. They actually haven't got the funding for it yet, right,

805
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 2: So what they're doing is they're looking to sign all

806
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 2: these big names and then once they've got the big names,

807
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 2: they're hoping to get the funding and then it will

808
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 2: go ahead if they can get the funding. So what

809
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 2: could potentially happen is like, this is just what I'm

810
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 2: hearing allegedly. Let me throw that in there. But if

811
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 2: they have all these sign all these big name players,

812
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 2: the competition could still fall through in six months because

813
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 2: they don't get the proper funding needed to do the

814
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 2: whole competition. So I don't know how true that is.

815
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 2: That's just what an insider told me the other day

816
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:31,319
Speaker 2: on the street, but he was homeless, so I don't know.

817
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 4: Again too, But like they'd have to negotiate the TV

818
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 4: deal and that would have to be like that would

819
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 4: dictate most of the money.

820
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 3: Now think so, But you're.

821
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 1: Saying that they might be right. They might be reversing

822
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 1: reverse engineering it. Let's get the players, let's get the

823
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 1: star power. Then we'll take it to the broadcasting, to

824
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: the sponsors after that. But that's a big risk.

825
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:53,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a big risk.

826
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: And the other thing about it, Coopses and Jack is

827
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 1: that sport is support is at his tribal and it's

828
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 1: purest form. It is tribal. And I'm looking and going, okay,

829
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: so this team in Miami, there's a team and take

830
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,400
Speaker 1: you there's a team in Dubai.

831
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 2: Like I just go as it too international, it's too broad.

832
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 1: Even when Liverpool were winning Champions League, the thing that

833
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: really stuck in their craws was the fact that they

834
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 1: hadn't won a Premier League title or a league title

835
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: for such a long time. And even though they won

836
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,439
Speaker 1: Champions leagues like you know, AC Milan and the top

837
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,479
Speaker 1: clubs for European glory, for them it was secondary because

838
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 1: they hadn't you know, it was a bittersweet because they

839
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: hadn't won the league. That's an example how the purest

840
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: form of sport is tribal.

841
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:45,760
Speaker 2: Their competitiveness like New Soos, Queensland are states that really

842
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 2: kind of don't like it. Tell that even outside of

843
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:48,839
Speaker 2: State of Orange.

844
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: Let's look at some of the big cities around the world. Right,

845
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: so you've got let's go Glasgow Celtic versus Glasgow Rangers,

846
00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 1: Fenerba versus Galatas. Right in this dambul all these ac

847
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 1: Milan into Milan Manchester night of Manchester City, Munich versus

848
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: Player Munich versus Bruce Adortment a little bit further away.

849
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 1: But you know, in sport and and in and if

850
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: you like, and the best one in rugby league, the

851
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 1: biggest derby and rugby league is South Sidney rabbit Os

852
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 1: versus Sidney Easterns Roosters, or in England Whole kr versus

853
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 1: Hull Orson Helen's versus Wigan. They just sit alongside each other.

854
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 4: That's the like, that's the one like you can you

855
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 4: make die hard fans by like through just people because

856
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 4: unless they get Taylor Swift, I can't see that happening too.

857
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 4: Swift as playing well, she's a bit of a cult herself.

858
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 4: Like if I'd say they signed Taylor Swift, I reckon

859
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 4: there's a fair chance they'd have quite the following. Whatever

860
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 4: team she signs for, what position would she play that?

861
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 1: Anyway?

862
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:57,839
Speaker 2: Sorry there, Jack, Jack's really really when he Jack chimes

863
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 2: in today, really very random, very very random.

864
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: I like it. Random. Jack's a good Jack.

865
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:04,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, we're gett into the back end of

866
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 2: the year, so happy, happy to allow that.

867
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:13,399
Speaker 3: I'm about to go to Thailand. So I'm hitting the yeah, yeah,

00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 3: I'm hitting the backstraps. I'm looking for Uncle Ricos thinking

869
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:16,399
Speaker 3: about that.

870
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, that our man in white Latus letting it have

871
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,439

Speaker 4: No, I'm taking gem there. You're missing out on Thailand

Speaker 3: Mate.

877
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,320
Speaker 1: As I said before, Jack, go to Bangkok, go to

878
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: the Chinatown of Bangkok. It is insane. You know, it's

879
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 1: the greatest.

880
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 2: Experiencecause I'm going to be home home stallone because you

881
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,680

Speaker 2: be a little bit of a shindig being thrown. I'm jealous,

883
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 2: you know.

884
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: Anyway, that's good stuff.

885
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 2: Sorry, did I have to do? We have anything else?

886
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: All I want to say is this. In recording this,

889
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 1: Haven't been speaking about that directly because we haven't seen

890
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: it yet for reasons which we will not disclose. Yeah,

891
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 1: we had to do the podcast early, but what.

892
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 2: Reason was that.

893
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, you said, I don't know what the reason is.

894
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:16,240
Speaker 3: Can you go ahead and tell us?

895
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:18,959
Speaker 2: Do you have a reason?

896
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 1: Rhymes pokys?

902
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 2: sheal nice to get away from him for a bit

903
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 2: because he's got that much energy at the moment, talking

904

Speaker 2: me years off. But he's up there playing monopoly with Tree.
