And guess what folks, as I welcome the boys, 4 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,000 S1: piggy Riddell and Mark Geier, you lose a bet on 5 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,640 S1: this podcast and you have to pay up. So m 6 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,160 S1: g I come bearing a wig. Wear that buddy. 7 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,280 S2: Yes. Okay. The Russell Fairfax wig of the week. I'm 8 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:30,960 S2: first on. 9 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,440 S3: Now. This was after you said there was no way 10 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,000 S3: Parramatta would beat the Broncos. Is that right? 11 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:37,960 S2: That's right. Is that right Kev. 12 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,279 S3: Yep. That's right. 13 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:40,880 S1: You know you look like you look like the doc 14 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:42,000 S1: from back to the future. 15 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,440 S2: I feel like Doctor Emmett Brown. Yes. I feel like 16 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,320 S2: the lead singer of Flock of Seagulls. I ran I 17 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,160 S2: ran so far away. 18 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,080 S1: We might have to have another bet this week. I 19 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,280 S1: don't know, somebody will say something stupid. Um, thank you 20 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,880 S1: to all the people that have subscribed and left feedback. Uh, 21 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,570 S1: trust you're enjoying the Mark My Words podcast? It does 22 00:00:59,570 --> 00:01:02,610 S1: get a little loose. Um, look, there's a fair bit happening, but, um, 23 00:01:02,650 --> 00:01:06,089 S1: I thought we'd start off with boys. Um, milligrams worry 24 00:01:06,090 --> 00:01:07,850 S1: of the week because I'm led to believe you want 25 00:01:07,850 --> 00:01:08,490 S1: your own segment. 26 00:01:08,490 --> 00:01:10,370 S2: Do you? Well, I can't really do it this week. 27 00:01:10,650 --> 00:01:12,130 S2: No one's going to take me seriously if I've got 28 00:01:12,130 --> 00:01:12,889 S2: the wig on. Really? 29 00:01:12,930 --> 00:01:13,810 S1: BET's a bet, bro. 30 00:01:14,170 --> 00:01:17,530 S2: Well, I'm worried about. Yeah. Okay. I'm my worry of 31 00:01:17,530 --> 00:01:18,410 S2: the week. Is that. 32 00:01:18,610 --> 00:01:19,330 S3: Take it off. 33 00:01:19,370 --> 00:01:19,890 S1: Take it off. 34 00:01:19,930 --> 00:01:21,570 S3: Hold it down. And there we go. 35 00:01:21,970 --> 00:01:25,209 S2: There you go. You've got your screenshot of that. Okay. 36 00:01:25,250 --> 00:01:28,290 S2: I'm worried that the look our game the last 2 37 00:01:28,290 --> 00:01:31,009 S2: or 3 years has been fantastic. Yeah. And I've loved 38 00:01:31,010 --> 00:01:33,250 S2: every second of it ever since we've come out of Covid. 39 00:01:33,250 --> 00:01:35,130 S2: And our game just seems to be on a precipice. 40 00:01:35,130 --> 00:01:37,569 S2: And it's but I think it's levelled out and I'm 41 00:01:37,569 --> 00:01:40,050 S2: worried about in the first couple of weeks, all this 42 00:01:40,410 --> 00:01:42,809 S2: six to go and six to go and six to go. 43 00:01:42,890 --> 00:01:46,170 S2: Um I think the game is heading down an avenue 44 00:01:46,569 --> 00:01:49,810 S2: very similar to cricket where everything is in favour of 45 00:01:49,810 --> 00:01:52,410 S2: the batsman. Everything in our game at the moment is 46 00:01:52,410 --> 00:01:56,170 S2: in favour of the attacking team. Yeah. Defense. Good defense 47 00:01:56,170 --> 00:01:59,740 S2: isn't being rewarded, and I'm. I look for the life 48 00:01:59,740 --> 00:02:02,020 S2: of me. I don't know how to fix it. Besides 49 00:02:02,020 --> 00:02:05,660 S2: making a tackle below the knees, a dominant tackle with 50 00:02:05,660 --> 00:02:09,100 S2: the game being so fast with the game, even even 51 00:02:09,100 --> 00:02:12,179 S2: the referees boys, when they've got their microphones on their lapel, 52 00:02:12,860 --> 00:02:14,579 S2: when they say six to go, wouldn't it be good 53 00:02:14,580 --> 00:02:18,340 S2: if they just said for putting your hand on the ball? Or, um, for, 54 00:02:18,380 --> 00:02:20,460 S2: you know, all we hear is what from the bunker. 55 00:02:20,500 --> 00:02:22,700 S3: Well, it's just too quick, isn't it? You don't hear anything. 56 00:02:22,740 --> 00:02:23,740 S3: It's just the. 57 00:02:23,740 --> 00:02:24,419 S2: Same thing each time. 58 00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:25,940 S1: Are we starting controversially this week? 59 00:02:25,980 --> 00:02:28,380 S2: Well, with that wig, I just got that off. And 60 00:02:28,380 --> 00:02:31,020 S2: now I've got getting something off my chest. And I 61 00:02:31,020 --> 00:02:34,900 S2: just think that my worry of the week. I'm worried 62 00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:38,700 S2: because the visual of rugby league in the last week 63 00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:42,660 S2: or two for me has changed since last year has changed. 64 00:02:42,700 --> 00:02:46,739 S2: It has changed noticeably and okay, let's I'm ruling Penrith 65 00:02:46,740 --> 00:02:48,500 S2: out of this equation because our defence in the first 66 00:02:48,500 --> 00:02:51,299 S2: two rounds has been sublime. They've just got something different 67 00:02:51,300 --> 00:02:53,419 S2: going on at the foot of the mountains. But for 68 00:02:53,419 --> 00:02:56,299 S2: every other club I think the six to go is 69 00:02:56,300 --> 00:02:59,500 S2: really wreaking havoc, and all these 40 to 30 games 70 00:02:59,500 --> 00:03:01,460 S2: is not in our DNA. 71 00:03:01,820 --> 00:03:03,740 S1: Is it? Is it just early in the competition or 72 00:03:03,980 --> 00:03:05,340 S1: is there genuinely concerned? 73 00:03:05,580 --> 00:03:08,700 S3: I don't like it and I agree with it 100% 74 00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:10,500 S3: with m g. I don't like the six to goes. 75 00:03:10,500 --> 00:03:13,220 S3: I don't like the introduction of six to goes. Now 76 00:03:13,220 --> 00:03:15,460 S3: being from the 20 metre line down the rest of 77 00:03:15,460 --> 00:03:18,260 S3: the field. Part of part of the advantage of getting 78 00:03:18,260 --> 00:03:20,140 S3: a penalty in your own end was the ability to 79 00:03:20,180 --> 00:03:22,660 S3: kick for touch, calm things down and then move on 80 00:03:22,660 --> 00:03:25,620 S3: with things. Whereas now teams are having to go six 81 00:03:25,620 --> 00:03:28,980 S3: against six against six again and tackle for 18 tackles 82 00:03:28,980 --> 00:03:31,060 S3: in a row. Yep. And then as M G says 83 00:03:31,100 --> 00:03:34,860 S3: then they usually get scored against. And sometimes that momentum 84 00:03:34,860 --> 00:03:37,460 S3: is really hard to to wrestle back for teams. And 85 00:03:37,620 --> 00:03:40,140 S3: I just don't like it. And I've said this previously 86 00:03:40,140 --> 00:03:43,940 S3: I'll say it again. Um how we are $1 billion 87 00:03:43,980 --> 00:03:47,980 S3: game and we decide rules weeks before the competition starts 88 00:03:48,380 --> 00:03:51,540 S3: and never implement those rules ever before in games of 89 00:03:51,540 --> 00:03:54,470 S3: rugby league to see the outcomes of those rules, because 90 00:03:54,470 --> 00:03:57,190 S3: there will always be pros and cons to all the rules, 91 00:03:57,190 --> 00:03:59,790 S3: and there'll be ways that coaches will then react to 92 00:03:59,790 --> 00:04:02,750 S3: those rules and play certain ways. We never do it. 93 00:04:02,750 --> 00:04:04,630 S3: I just I think as a game at the end 94 00:04:04,630 --> 00:04:06,710 S3: of the season, that's fine that we have the committee 95 00:04:06,710 --> 00:04:10,230 S3: with these, um, suggesting these new rules, but they've got 96 00:04:10,230 --> 00:04:12,630 S3: to be implemented for 12 months in the lower tiers 97 00:04:12,630 --> 00:04:15,390 S3: of our game. They've then got to be reported on 98 00:04:15,550 --> 00:04:18,630 S3: by the game. What was good, what worked, what didn't work, 99 00:04:18,630 --> 00:04:22,150 S3: what were the outcomes from those rule changes? And then 100 00:04:22,150 --> 00:04:24,510 S3: decide do we want them in our game in the NRL. 101 00:04:24,550 --> 00:04:27,870 S3: I just think it's amateur hour that we make up 102 00:04:27,870 --> 00:04:30,710 S3: these rules or go with these rules and then go, okay, 103 00:04:30,710 --> 00:04:33,150 S3: let's put them in the best game in the world 104 00:04:33,430 --> 00:04:35,109 S3: straight away. It just doesn't make sense. 105 00:04:35,150 --> 00:04:36,430 S1: Geez, you two have started strong. 106 00:04:36,470 --> 00:04:38,110 S2: Well, you're right bro. You made a good point. Is 107 00:04:38,110 --> 00:04:40,510 S2: it early days in the NRL? Maybe it is, but 108 00:04:40,510 --> 00:04:42,190 S2: I just know that in the last couple of weeks 109 00:04:42,190 --> 00:04:44,909 S2: every game I've watched um, as I said, besides the 110 00:04:44,910 --> 00:04:47,270 S2: ones Penrith are involved in, every team seems to be 111 00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:49,710 S2: struggling with the six to go. Um, and they're up, 112 00:04:49,990 --> 00:04:54,040 S2: they're marginally up like a lot. It's marginally up a lot. 113 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:59,840 S2: Is that marginally or. Graphically up. I mean it's it's 114 00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:00,200 S2: a big. 115 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,360 S3: Teams are noticing. I know because I'm speaking to teams 116 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,320 S3: and coaches and players and it's a different game this 117 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:07,960 S3: year at the moment to what it was in the last. 118 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,360 S2: So don't you think like in our game, like I 119 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,800 S2: know that when I grew up, the first thing our 120 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,960 S2: coach told me was tackle around the leagues. If I'm 121 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,040 S2: a coach now, that's the last thing. 122 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:18,320 S3: No, no, no one's doing. 123 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,480 S2: Did you get. But what about. What about if all 124 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,760 S2: these rule changes that we bring in. What if they said, 125 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,599 S2: guess what? If you make a copy book tackle around 126 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,640 S2: the knees, you get to mark that bloke. 127 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,080 S3: Yeah, well, why don't we try it? But why don't 128 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,400 S3: we try it in a game? Yeah, you know what 129 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,679 S3: I mean. And see what happens to the the game. 130 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:33,800 S3: See the outcome. 131 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,799 S2: A lot more. Lot lot a lot less head knocks. 132 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,320 S1: Yeah. You know, the other thing that gets me is 133 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,400 S1: a former ref, believe it or not. Um, exactly. Um, 134 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,279 S1: it's a bit of a cop out for the refs too, 135 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,600 S1: because they can wave their arm and restart the tackle 136 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,530 S1: count and really not be held accountable for that decision 137 00:05:49,529 --> 00:05:52,050 S1: that they've made. And I know that they can only 138 00:05:52,050 --> 00:05:54,290 S1: police what's in front of them. But you see some 139 00:05:54,290 --> 00:05:56,330 S1: referees that are more keen on waving their arm in 140 00:05:56,330 --> 00:05:58,610 S1: the air. Others will say, well, no, I'm up. I'm 141 00:05:58,650 --> 00:06:00,210 S1: onto you. I feel I'm not going to allow it. 142 00:06:00,250 --> 00:06:02,930 S2: I feel a bit I feel for the referees because 143 00:06:02,970 --> 00:06:05,130 S2: I listen to a player that I know. I'm not 144 00:06:05,130 --> 00:06:07,409 S2: sure who it was, maybe Tom Dearden who said this. 145 00:06:07,610 --> 00:06:10,130 S2: He goes, we don't mind if we're doing something wrong, 146 00:06:10,130 --> 00:06:11,610 S2: but tell us what we're doing wrong so we can 147 00:06:11,610 --> 00:06:13,770 S2: fix it. Yeah, most times we're just going to go, 148 00:06:13,810 --> 00:06:15,490 S2: we don't know what's going on. Yeah. And the games 149 00:06:15,490 --> 00:06:18,450 S2: that quick now that the referee doesn't have to explain himself. 150 00:06:18,490 --> 00:06:19,410 S1: Yeah yeah yeah. 151 00:06:19,650 --> 00:06:21,770 S3: But but I'm with you on the referees. I feel 152 00:06:21,770 --> 00:06:23,330 S3: for him as well because and I know for a 153 00:06:23,330 --> 00:06:26,250 S3: fact two weeks before the competition started, they didn't even 154 00:06:26,250 --> 00:06:28,170 S3: know what the new rules were going to be. So 155 00:06:28,170 --> 00:06:29,890 S3: they were going out to all the clubs and all 156 00:06:29,890 --> 00:06:33,250 S3: the clubs invite the referees to go to referee their 157 00:06:33,250 --> 00:06:34,570 S3: opposed sessions or scrimmage. 158 00:06:34,610 --> 00:06:35,490 S1: Is this an exclusive? 159 00:06:35,529 --> 00:06:38,210 S3: No, but those referees didn't know. They didn't know what 160 00:06:38,210 --> 00:06:38,850 S3: the new rules. 161 00:06:38,850 --> 00:06:40,169 S2: This is an exclusive. 162 00:06:40,210 --> 00:06:40,650 S4: Oh. 163 00:06:42,730 --> 00:06:44,890 S3: And and it's not just one club. It's a number 164 00:06:44,890 --> 00:06:46,810 S3: of clubs. They all didn't know what was going on. 165 00:06:46,810 --> 00:06:49,420 S3: I just don't understand how we as a game can 166 00:06:49,420 --> 00:06:49,780 S3: be like that. 167 00:06:49,820 --> 00:06:51,460 S1: Thank you boys. That's a very strong start for this 168 00:06:51,460 --> 00:06:53,380 S1: week's podcast. We're a bit loose last week, but that's 169 00:06:53,380 --> 00:06:54,140 S1: a bit more of a serious. 170 00:06:54,460 --> 00:06:54,940 S2: I've got a. 171 00:06:55,260 --> 00:06:57,779 S1: No swearing too much last week. No, no, you you 172 00:06:57,779 --> 00:07:00,620 S1: boys have obviously seized on this controversial issue in our 173 00:07:00,620 --> 00:07:02,980 S1: game being set restarts. You've missed the biggest story in 174 00:07:02,980 --> 00:07:05,020 S1: rugby league. What's that? Billy Smith's bike. 175 00:07:05,060 --> 00:07:05,460 S2: Accident. 176 00:07:05,820 --> 00:07:08,020 S1: Oh, yeah. This is going to springboard into a very 177 00:07:08,020 --> 00:07:09,660 S1: important question I need to ask you boys. 178 00:07:09,700 --> 00:07:10,100 S3: Oh hold. 179 00:07:10,100 --> 00:07:14,020 S1: On. Injuries that you sustained in rugby league where you 180 00:07:14,020 --> 00:07:15,500 S1: may not have been telling the truth or you may 181 00:07:15,500 --> 00:07:18,059 S1: have done something stupid. Piggy, I'm going to you first 182 00:07:18,060 --> 00:07:20,100 S1: because why are you giving a famous story? 183 00:07:20,140 --> 00:07:21,460 S3: Why are you coming to me? 184 00:07:21,500 --> 00:07:23,540 S1: I feel very sorry for Brian Smith, one of your 185 00:07:23,540 --> 00:07:23,980 S1: former coaches. 186 00:07:24,020 --> 00:07:27,020 S3: Okay, so it was the end of 2005. I just 187 00:07:27,020 --> 00:07:29,980 S3: finished the first year at the eels, and it was 188 00:07:29,980 --> 00:07:32,340 S3: about November. I think we were back at I think 189 00:07:32,340 --> 00:07:35,780 S3: we were back at pre-season training, but I had signed 190 00:07:35,780 --> 00:07:41,140 S3: up for an over 35 tag team with with with 191 00:07:41,140 --> 00:07:42,420 S3: all my mates and we'd all. 192 00:07:42,460 --> 00:07:43,100 S2: Were you 35? 193 00:07:43,260 --> 00:07:44,860 S3: No, I was in my 20s, but it was all 194 00:07:44,980 --> 00:07:45,500 S3: you cheat. 195 00:07:45,940 --> 00:07:47,940 S2: You cheat. I'm playing against bastards like you. 196 00:07:48,420 --> 00:07:49,460 S1: And playing in the NRL. 197 00:07:50,660 --> 00:07:53,780 S3: And after every game, every week, everyone would bring a box. 198 00:07:53,820 --> 00:07:55,860 S3: You know, it's someone's turn to bring a box of beer. 199 00:07:55,860 --> 00:07:59,660 S3: And we all had beers after aishak. Anyway, one night 200 00:07:59,660 --> 00:08:03,980 S3: I've done my ankle bad like I'm talking. Couldn't walk um, 201 00:08:04,060 --> 00:08:07,500 S3: all swollen, blown up on the outside. I'm thinking fuck, 202 00:08:08,020 --> 00:08:11,060 S3: what am I going to do here? I'm in pre-season 203 00:08:11,060 --> 00:08:14,780 S3: with the eels so I rang Smithy that night or 204 00:08:14,820 --> 00:08:16,460 S3: mate I think I'm rating him the next morning and 205 00:08:16,460 --> 00:08:17,980 S3: then I rang our physio as well. I was like 206 00:08:18,020 --> 00:08:20,580 S3: oh look, I've had a drama. He's like oh what's up, 207 00:08:20,580 --> 00:08:23,780 S3: what's happening? And I said, mate, you wouldn't believe it. 208 00:08:23,940 --> 00:08:25,820 S3: Me and my girlfriend took my dog for a. 209 00:08:25,820 --> 00:08:26,060 S4: Walk. 210 00:08:27,500 --> 00:08:32,500 S3: And we're down the park, we're down the park and, uh, 211 00:08:32,540 --> 00:08:34,740 S3: we'll throw on the tennis ball to my dog. And 212 00:08:34,740 --> 00:08:37,500 S3: as the dogs come back around, it's clipped me and 213 00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:39,660 S3: just knocked me off my feet and I've rolled my ankle. 214 00:08:39,700 --> 00:08:40,300 S2: That's ingenious. 215 00:08:41,220 --> 00:08:41,740 S1: You're a liar. 216 00:08:41,780 --> 00:08:43,830 S3: That was that was the end of it. I still 217 00:08:43,830 --> 00:08:45,910 S3: to this day don't think he believed me. But that's 218 00:08:45,950 --> 00:08:46,590 S3: that was the story. 219 00:08:47,150 --> 00:08:47,750 S2: He had to believe. 220 00:08:47,790 --> 00:08:49,470 S3: You imagine I walked in and said, sorry mate. I 221 00:08:49,470 --> 00:08:52,430 S3: was playing over 35 times. I was on the squeeze 222 00:08:52,429 --> 00:08:55,790 S3: with the boys and I rolled my ankle. I'd already 223 00:08:55,790 --> 00:08:58,190 S3: had six schooners during the game we were playing. 224 00:08:58,230 --> 00:09:01,790 S1: But for you, piggy, that's believable. That's the thing. What 225 00:09:01,790 --> 00:09:04,270 S1: about you, MJ? Any weird, wacky injuries? 226 00:09:04,630 --> 00:09:07,790 S2: Oh, look, I have a lot, but the one I 227 00:09:07,790 --> 00:09:10,950 S2: missed the game was, um. Actually, no, there was two, 228 00:09:11,190 --> 00:09:15,309 S2: one in my second year, which was, uh, 1988. I, uh, 229 00:09:15,630 --> 00:09:18,350 S2: had no shoes on. I kicked a table. Just when 230 00:09:18,350 --> 00:09:22,590 S2: I broke my big toe. Like that was a simple one. Um, 231 00:09:22,630 --> 00:09:25,630 S2: in 1990, I was in the shower. We're about to 232 00:09:25,630 --> 00:09:28,709 S2: play west at around the park, and it was on the. 233 00:09:29,630 --> 00:09:31,709 S2: It was the day of the game. It was. And 234 00:09:31,710 --> 00:09:34,069 S2: I'm washing my hair with the shampoo. I went down 235 00:09:34,070 --> 00:09:34,670 S2: to pick up the. 236 00:09:35,150 --> 00:09:37,110 S3: Is this before the game or after the game? 237 00:09:37,150 --> 00:09:38,189 S2: This is before the game. 238 00:09:38,230 --> 00:09:40,309 S3: You're having a shower before the game. Washing your hair. 239 00:09:40,429 --> 00:09:41,600 S4: Are you washing your hair for Why. 240 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:42,040 S2: TV. 241 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:42,440 S4: Game. 242 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,240 S1: Washing his hair before a game. 243 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,920 S3: I've heard like every now and then. I didn't mind 244 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:50,880 S3: the shower before. 245 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,720 S2: I had mullets. I'd flick it around. 246 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:54,120 S4: And. 247 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,320 S2: What would you say, guys? Look, Fabio sometimes. 248 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,439 S1: And then Rabs would come on. Geez. My guy looking good. 249 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:02,600 S2: Call me Mark. 250 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:03,920 S1: Mark looking good. 251 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:08,640 S2: He's got more, more, more strapping than cardigan Bay. Anyway, 252 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,320 S2: I've gone for the shampoo wash that went down to 253 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,680 S2: pick up the conditioner. I went, ah, pull me back. 254 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:16,880 S4: No way. 255 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:17,319 S2: Yeah. 256 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:18,319 S1: Reaching for the soap. 257 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:19,760 S2: Reaching for the. No, not the soap. 258 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,079 S3: Are you sure it was your back? You heard there 259 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:26,559 S3: was conditioner? 260 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,040 S2: No. So I missed the game. 261 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,320 S3: I know why. 262 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,160 S2: I pulled out, I had to pull out so. 263 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,240 S1: Well. Note to all the NRL players listening. Don't wash 264 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:34,040 S1: your hair before game. 265 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,200 S2: No. Unless it's TV game, which they all are these days. 266 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:37,640 S3: Don't bend over in showers. 267 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,370 S2: No that's. Don't pick up soap. 268 00:10:41,090 --> 00:10:43,690 S1: Oh, brilliant. Boys. The other thing that we need to 269 00:10:43,690 --> 00:10:45,330 S1: touch on off the top of the podcast this week 270 00:10:45,330 --> 00:10:48,130 S1: is the history that was made last week. Um, it 271 00:10:48,130 --> 00:10:51,329 S1: seems piggy, you and I have certainly caused a stir. Oh, yeah. Um, 272 00:10:51,330 --> 00:10:54,809 S1: with our comments about the Prime Minister, um, but Alex Johnston, 273 00:10:54,809 --> 00:10:57,930 S1: he's had a statue unveiled outside the headquarters at, uh, 274 00:10:57,929 --> 00:11:00,290 S1: at Maroubra there. What a what a great night, piggy. 275 00:11:00,290 --> 00:11:03,090 S1: You were there with me in commentary. Um, I every 276 00:11:03,090 --> 00:11:04,610 S1: time I think about it and I see it, I 277 00:11:04,650 --> 00:11:07,010 S1: just think, wow, we were there to witness history. It 278 00:11:07,010 --> 00:11:08,010 S1: was pretty special, wasn't it? 279 00:11:08,050 --> 00:11:09,970 S3: Oh, it was a great night. As you said, we 280 00:11:09,970 --> 00:11:13,250 S3: called it, uh, the, the crowd, the fans all running 281 00:11:13,250 --> 00:11:17,130 S3: on the field to celebrate with him. Sensational atmosphere. Love 282 00:11:17,130 --> 00:11:19,770 S3: the statue as well. Love the statue. Saw that. I 283 00:11:19,770 --> 00:11:21,130 S3: think that's very appropriate. 284 00:11:21,170 --> 00:11:21,329 S2: Yeah. 285 00:11:21,330 --> 00:11:23,689 S3: It's awesome. And it should be there. And, um, you 286 00:11:23,690 --> 00:11:25,650 S3: know the other one I reckon we should campaign for. 287 00:11:25,650 --> 00:11:27,170 S3: I don't know if you boys will agree with me 288 00:11:27,170 --> 00:11:29,410 S3: or not. I think he wears the gold number two 289 00:11:29,450 --> 00:11:30,490 S3: for the rest of his career. 290 00:11:30,530 --> 00:11:31,209 S1: Yeah, yeah. 291 00:11:31,210 --> 00:11:33,530 S3: Why not? He's the the all time leading try scorer 292 00:11:33,530 --> 00:11:35,530 S3: of our game. Not not, you know, not a year, 293 00:11:35,570 --> 00:11:38,220 S3: not this of our game ever. I think he should 294 00:11:38,220 --> 00:11:40,660 S3: wear that number two every week. I'm with you. I 295 00:11:40,660 --> 00:11:42,340 S3: just think it'd be a lovely touch for him. For 296 00:11:42,340 --> 00:11:44,140 S3: the rest of his career, wherever he goes. 297 00:11:45,140 --> 00:11:47,660 S2: Until he drops the ball under the bombers, I mean. Hey, Goldy. 298 00:11:48,540 --> 00:11:49,500 S2: Good catch, Goldy. 299 00:11:50,380 --> 00:11:52,060 S3: But I thought it was a great touch from the 300 00:11:52,059 --> 00:11:54,860 S3: South Sydney club to have that jersey and the gold 301 00:11:54,860 --> 00:11:56,579 S3: and everything. That's unreal. Great. 302 00:11:56,620 --> 00:11:58,860 S1: I, um, I don't know how you boys feel. There's 303 00:11:58,860 --> 00:12:01,979 S1: already this campaign to rename the top try scorer award. 304 00:12:01,980 --> 00:12:05,540 S1: Do it. Um, well, see, I disagree. I think we 305 00:12:05,540 --> 00:12:08,060 S1: can't lose sight of the fact that Ken Irvine held 306 00:12:08,059 --> 00:12:10,940 S1: the record for over 50 years. Um, so if they're 307 00:12:10,940 --> 00:12:12,580 S1: going to do it, I'd prefer it to be a 308 00:12:12,580 --> 00:12:13,260 S1: joint award. 309 00:12:13,300 --> 00:12:14,780 S2: Of course. That's what I. That's what I thought it was. 310 00:12:14,820 --> 00:12:17,460 S1: Yeah. Well. Yvonne Johnson I've seen that, but I've also 311 00:12:17,460 --> 00:12:19,500 S1: heard some people saying, well, now Alex is now the leader. 312 00:12:19,500 --> 00:12:21,260 S1: It should be named after him. I don't think we 313 00:12:21,260 --> 00:12:23,780 S1: can lose sight of the fact that Ken Irvine said 314 00:12:23,780 --> 00:12:25,620 S1: it originally. And the other point that needs to be 315 00:12:25,620 --> 00:12:28,060 S1: made is Ken Irvine said it in an era where 316 00:12:28,059 --> 00:12:28,820 S1: the corner post was. 317 00:12:28,820 --> 00:12:29,260 S2: Yeah, that's. 318 00:12:29,260 --> 00:12:29,500 S3: Right. 319 00:12:29,780 --> 00:12:31,740 S1: So you think about all of the tries that would 320 00:12:31,780 --> 00:12:34,700 S1: have been knocked back or rejected because he's touched the 321 00:12:34,700 --> 00:12:35,260 S1: corner post. 322 00:12:35,380 --> 00:12:38,579 S2: Alex there's two things growing up that were mythical in my, 323 00:12:38,740 --> 00:12:41,980 S2: you know, childhood. And one was the Saint George, Saint George, 324 00:12:42,580 --> 00:12:45,660 S2: 11 straight grand finals. You couldn't really fathom that as 325 00:12:45,660 --> 00:12:47,300 S2: a kid. You're going, how did they do that? And, 326 00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:48,780 S2: you know, you look back and you go, okay, the 327 00:12:49,900 --> 00:12:52,179 S2: salary cap and five metres, all that was different. But 328 00:12:52,179 --> 00:12:54,060 S2: they still did it. Yeah, they still did it. Yeah. 329 00:12:54,420 --> 00:12:56,540 S2: And the other one was Ken Irvine. When you go on, 330 00:12:56,540 --> 00:12:59,980 S2: how can a bloke score 212 tries like we've gone 331 00:12:59,980 --> 00:13:04,819 S2: through Cameron Smith's juggernaut of breaking records and 400 games 332 00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:08,380 S2: and point scoring and everything. But I think Alex Johnson's 333 00:13:08,420 --> 00:13:10,579 S2: what we saw from him is the is the best 334 00:13:10,820 --> 00:13:13,339 S2: individual thing that I've seen happen in our game, only 335 00:13:13,340 --> 00:13:15,300 S2: because it's been so 53 years in the making. 336 00:13:15,340 --> 00:13:16,540 S3: Yeah, it's a hard record. 337 00:13:16,780 --> 00:13:19,300 S2: It's such a hard it's just it's phenomenal. And I 338 00:13:19,380 --> 00:13:21,939 S2: love him. I just love him. I think he's he's 339 00:13:22,020 --> 00:13:25,300 S2: a he's a perfect brand of, of man for our game. 340 00:13:25,340 --> 00:13:28,500 S2: You know, he's he's humble. He's he's Wayne Bennett gave 341 00:13:28,500 --> 00:13:30,900 S2: him an unbelievable tribute when he said he's a ten 342 00:13:30,900 --> 00:13:33,100 S2: out of ten bloke. And out of all the players 343 00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:36,430 S2: he's coached over his illustrious career.

What was the good? 527 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:53,480 S1: Bad ugly. 528 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,879 S3: Oh, geez. Well, the good, we can't go past Alex Johnson. 529 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,600 S3: That was good on Friday night. Yeah. The bad, the bad. Well, 530 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,480 S3: obviously I think we'll all have a little bit to 531 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,520 S3: say about the Bronson Sherry situation and the doggies. That's 532 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:06,399 S3: not looking good, is it? 533 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:07,760 S1: You know what I'm going to I'm going to nominate 534 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,360 S1: the bad. Oh I'm going to nominate the bad. The 535 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,280 S1: Dragons falling in a hole in the second half after 536 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,199 S1: Clint Gutherson had a little. 537 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:16,280 S2: You're just throwing that out there. 538 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,240 S3: He's just having a jab at his mate Shane Flanagan. 539 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:19,639 S2: Mate. 540 00:20:20,010 --> 00:20:21,689 S3: It's. What a disgrace, Flynn. 541 00:20:21,890 --> 00:20:24,090 S1: Well, I thought we were mates, but we're not anymore. So, Flynn, 542 00:20:24,170 --> 00:20:25,970 S1: you need to pick yourself up and the team out 543 00:20:25,970 --> 00:20:27,850 S1: of the hole up against me. We had a great 544 00:20:27,850 --> 00:20:28,210 S1: chance to. 545 00:20:28,210 --> 00:20:30,450 S3: Be very careful, Levi. 546 00:20:30,490 --> 00:20:32,170 S1: You know what? He can use his little bow legs 547 00:20:32,170 --> 00:20:34,729 S1: and walk up to the coach's box and enjoy himself. 548 00:20:35,010 --> 00:20:35,290 S2: John. 549 00:20:35,490 --> 00:20:37,410 S1: All I did last week on the Continuous Call team 550 00:20:37,410 --> 00:20:39,570 S1: was highlight that when he was a sideline, I. Ahead 551 00:20:39,570 --> 00:20:42,530 S1: of Cooper Jones making his debut. But he reported. When 552 00:20:42,530 --> 00:20:44,490 S1: Rey crossed down to him on the touchline, he said, 553 00:20:44,490 --> 00:20:48,129 S1: quote unquote, yes, Ray, there's grass right across the ground here. Shane, 554 00:20:48,130 --> 00:20:50,650 S1: you're at the Olympic Stadium, mate. It's the ground that 555 00:20:50,650 --> 00:20:52,850 S1: hosts the grand final. And piggy, you've put me up 556 00:20:52,850 --> 00:20:55,929 S1: to this, so blame him, okay? Don't blame me. Blame him. 557 00:20:55,970 --> 00:20:59,689 S3: But I have nothing to do with this whatsoever. I've 558 00:20:59,730 --> 00:21:02,770 S3: tried to defend you and defend you and defend you, 559 00:21:02,770 --> 00:21:03,850 S3: and he just keeps going. 560 00:21:03,890 --> 00:21:06,010 S1: Alright. The other bat I will nominate is the rib 561 00:21:06,010 --> 00:21:09,690 S1: injury to Adam Reynolds. Um, yeah. That's the he's he's 562 00:21:09,690 --> 00:21:10,970 S1: very injury prone at the moment. 563 00:21:11,210 --> 00:21:12,609 S3: Can we talk about the ugly. 564 00:21:12,650 --> 00:21:13,410 S1: What's the ugly. 565 00:21:13,609 --> 00:21:14,449 S3: Manley. 566 00:21:14,450 --> 00:21:15,170 S1: Yeah yeah. 567 00:21:15,410 --> 00:21:16,210 S3: Awful. 568 00:21:16,250 --> 00:21:16,690 S2: Yeah. 569 00:21:16,730 --> 00:21:17,410 S3: Horrendous. 570 00:21:17,410 --> 00:21:20,979 S2: So my I'll get to that. It's my good is 571 00:21:20,980 --> 00:21:23,060 S2: obviously the Tigers. I thought they were great. Nights were great. 572 00:21:23,100 --> 00:21:26,100 S2: They were gallant. And the Panthers defense. Um, just in 573 00:21:26,100 --> 00:21:28,379 S2: a time where we speak about how six to go 574 00:21:28,380 --> 00:21:31,459 S2: is affecting every other team but them, they're just above 575 00:21:31,580 --> 00:21:36,380 S2: my bad. Was another unwanted disruption for the doggies this week. Yep. Um, 576 00:21:37,180 --> 00:21:42,540 S2: that's three in in almost 12 months with Joseph Tapine. Yeah. Um, 577 00:21:42,740 --> 00:21:45,859 S2: Locky Galvin and now this, which is kind of distracts, 578 00:21:45,859 --> 00:21:49,220 S2: I think, the players from what they need to be doing. 579 00:21:49,420 --> 00:21:50,340 S2: It's you know, what. 580 00:21:50,340 --> 00:21:52,660 S3: Do you think about it all though? The whole idea 581 00:21:52,660 --> 00:21:53,300 S3: with Sherry. 582 00:21:53,500 --> 00:21:57,979 S2: I think something's happened. I, I don't believe a first 583 00:21:57,980 --> 00:22:00,740 S2: grader would want to leave a club because he gets 584 00:22:00,740 --> 00:22:02,860 S2: put on put on another side. Yeah. Like on the 585 00:22:02,859 --> 00:22:05,180 S2: right side, as I said on the continuous call team 586 00:22:05,180 --> 00:22:07,380 S2: on Saturday, if he was playing origin at right centre, 587 00:22:07,380 --> 00:22:08,300 S2: would he say no? 588 00:22:08,340 --> 00:22:10,140 S1: But especially when the world's best centres on the other side. 589 00:22:10,180 --> 00:22:11,660 S3: That's right, that's right. Hello. 590 00:22:11,700 --> 00:22:14,500 S2: I don't I don't understand it. But look there's going 591 00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:17,830 S2: to be some there'll be some ample suitors for him. 592 00:22:17,869 --> 00:22:19,350 S1: Has he been hanging out with Zac Lomax? 593 00:22:19,790 --> 00:22:21,830 S3: Do you think do you think maybe that there are 594 00:22:21,869 --> 00:22:24,310 S3: suitors out there that he obviously, or he's been told 595 00:22:24,310 --> 00:22:26,990 S3: no about? So he's agitating for the old. 596 00:22:27,390 --> 00:22:27,750 S2: Well, the. 597 00:22:27,750 --> 00:22:28,030 S3: Eagles. 598 00:22:28,030 --> 00:22:28,910 S2: Would want him, wouldn't they? 599 00:22:29,190 --> 00:22:30,109 S3: The Eagles not sure. 600 00:22:30,150 --> 00:22:33,950 S2: With Sean Russell going to the bears and missing Alan Lomax. Yeah. 601 00:22:34,030 --> 00:22:38,110 S2: Um the storm with, uh. Will Warbrick going missing on Lomax. Yeah. 602 00:22:38,150 --> 00:22:39,590 S2: And I think the other one would be Manley. 603 00:22:39,630 --> 00:22:41,270 S1: Can we not lose sight of the fact he spent, what, 604 00:22:41,310 --> 00:22:43,109 S1: four years out of the game doping? 605 00:22:43,550 --> 00:22:44,230 S2: I know, I know. 606 00:22:44,270 --> 00:22:44,790 S1: I think I think. 607 00:22:44,830 --> 00:22:45,710 S2: The game's been good to him. 608 00:22:45,750 --> 00:22:47,630 S1: Well, exactly. I think a lot of people forget about that. 609 00:22:47,630 --> 00:22:50,230 S1: And he needs to understand that while the game is 610 00:22:50,230 --> 00:22:52,990 S1: very forgiving, um, if he wants to sort of throw 611 00:22:52,990 --> 00:22:55,230 S1: it back in the faces of the Bulldogs fans, they 612 00:22:55,550 --> 00:22:56,870 S1: might not be so forgiving. Yeah, yeah. 613 00:22:56,910 --> 00:22:58,710 S2: Is that fair? I get that yeah, yeah. 614 00:22:59,270 --> 00:22:59,710 S1: Piggy. 615 00:23:00,150 --> 00:23:01,110 S3: I'm Mark Levi. 616 00:23:01,710 --> 00:23:02,310 S2: And this is my. 617 00:23:02,310 --> 00:23:06,070 S1: Car. I'm not getting controversial this week. You blokes hammered me. Um, 618 00:23:06,390 --> 00:23:09,350 S1: just speaking of manly, um, Jake Trbojevic. I think we'll 619 00:23:09,350 --> 00:23:11,629 S1: touch on that, will we. The three runs, 58 minutes, 620 00:23:11,630 --> 00:23:12,709 S1: 46 tackles. 621 00:23:12,710 --> 00:23:16,030 S2: Well they're in a they're in a position now mainly where, um. 622 00:23:16,150 --> 00:23:21,150 S2: When you're getting beaten both games at home, everything gets microscoped. Yeah. 623 00:23:21,230 --> 00:23:28,070 S2: Everything's analyzed. Everything's watched. Siebold, Fogarty, um Luke Brooks everything's 624 00:23:28,109 --> 00:23:30,510 S2: all that needs a win to break. They they they've 625 00:23:30,510 --> 00:23:32,670 S2: got to buy this week and they'll beat that thing 626 00:23:32,670 --> 00:23:38,030 S2: just like. But I, I look with Jake I he's 627 00:23:38,030 --> 00:23:40,070 S2: in that situation where he's 32 years of age now. 628 00:23:40,070 --> 00:23:42,189 S2: And obviously his running game isn't what it used to be, 629 00:23:42,190 --> 00:23:44,470 S2: but he still made 46 tackles on the weekend. Yeah. 630 00:23:44,510 --> 00:23:49,310 S2: And um I believe that he's probably starting days are over, 631 00:23:49,670 --> 00:23:51,940 S2: but I still believe he's part of the 17 or 632 00:23:51,940 --> 00:23:54,030 S2: 18 or 19. He's got to be in the squad. Yeah. 633 00:23:54,070 --> 00:23:57,590 S2: Because he brings so much extra that a lot of people, 634 00:23:57,590 --> 00:23:59,630 S2: a lot of players don't bring. He just brings when 635 00:23:59,670 --> 00:24:01,350 S2: you're if I'm in the dressing room, I'm seeing Jake 636 00:24:01,350 --> 00:24:05,430 S2: Dragojevic putting his boots on. I'm feeling better. Yeah, obviously 637 00:24:05,430 --> 00:24:08,070 S2: these things don't work as you get older the way 638 00:24:08,070 --> 00:24:09,910 S2: you want them to. I've been down that road. Yeah, 639 00:24:09,950 --> 00:24:12,639 S2: I retired at 32 because I didn't want to do 640 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,199 S2: another off season and I know I couldn't. I knew 641 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,239 S2: I couldn't have some of the things that I was 642 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,920 S2: doing in my last year. I would have it in 643 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,800 S2: five years early and I just wasn't doing it. I 644 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,280 S2: just wasn't getting there, I wasn't. And these things happened 645 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,920 S2: to us overnight sometimes. But I feel for a bloke 646 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,280 S2: who is the Bambi of our competition. You don't shoot Bambi. 647 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:30,400 S3: Everyone loves. 648 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,960 S2: Everyone loves Jake. And sometimes you've got to make a 649 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,160 S2: hard decision. But I think the hard decision, as far 650 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,800 S2: as he goes, is maybe just remove him from that 651 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,040 S2: starting 13 and make his job coming on and making 652 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,560 S2: a difference. And I think that might be better for 653 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:43,960 S2: him as well. 654 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,760 S1: Yep. All right. Fantastic boys. Um there's a few more 655 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,560 S1: stories to tell which we will do, but let's jump 656 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,800 S1: into a preview of round number three. We've got the 657 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,119 S1: odds here as well. Raiders Bulldogs Raiders slight favourites for 658 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,560 S1: this at Gio Stadium. We'll have a look at some 659 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,480 S1: stats as we go because the one iron's been busy 660 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:00,680 S1: studying the form and everything. 661 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,280 S2: Very good from 21. 662 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:02,639 S3: Well done. 663 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,040 S1: Mate. Speaking of preparation I've never seen more. Mate I 664 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,920 S1: take less preparation in for the TV morning show than 665 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,120 S1: MG brings in for the podcast. What about all this 666 00:25:10,810 --> 00:25:12,050 S1: You've got notes and everything. 667 00:25:12,090 --> 00:25:12,570 S3: I've got. 668 00:25:13,170 --> 00:25:15,689 S2: Teams. This is teams.

Um, boys? Yeah. Uh, Raiders and bulldogs. Gio Stadium, 681 00:25:38,890 --> 00:25:41,410 S1: Thursday night footy Raiders have won five of their past 682 00:25:41,410 --> 00:25:44,290 S1: six against the Bulldogs at Gio Stadium. Who do you 683 00:25:44,290 --> 00:25:45,369 S1: like in this one, gentlemen? 684 00:25:45,410 --> 00:25:47,650 S3: Uh I went the Raiders and I think I went 685 00:25:47,650 --> 00:25:49,850 S3: the Raiders obviously because I think Sticky's going to. 686 00:25:50,250 --> 00:25:52,169 S1: Yeah 300 games as coach. 687 00:25:52,490 --> 00:25:55,130 S3: But fired up after what he saw last week over 688 00:25:55,130 --> 00:25:59,050 S3: in New Zealand. Back home um great opportunity to get 689 00:25:59,050 --> 00:26:01,850 S3: themselves back on track with a victory over a good team. 690 00:26:01,890 --> 00:26:03,930 S1: Well you don't want to upset Ricky because as you know, 691 00:26:03,970 --> 00:26:06,570 S1: piggy still calls you Matt Riddle after something you said 692 00:26:06,570 --> 00:26:08,220 S1: about 12 years ago. Well. 693 00:26:09,020 --> 00:26:11,859 S2: Probably. Probably he's back as well. Yes. But I still 694 00:26:11,859 --> 00:26:14,340 S2: think I think the dogs for the same reason. I 695 00:26:14,340 --> 00:26:17,260 S2: think after the by after the week of, you know, 696 00:26:17,300 --> 00:26:20,020 S2: turmoil they've had.

Was it the 700 00:26:26,500 --> 00:26:28,700 S3: Raiders that were beating him easily and then at half 701 00:26:28,700 --> 00:26:32,220 S3: time turned around and Crichton did it all on his own. 702 00:26:32,260 --> 00:26:34,459 S3: And Crichton the jagged it all. Yeah. But anyway. 703 00:26:34,540 --> 00:26:36,660 S2: So it's gonna be a tight one. I'm leaning towards 704 00:26:36,660 --> 00:26:37,020 S2: the doggies. 705 00:26:37,180 --> 00:26:39,300 S1: For the betting partner.

Liam Martin. 756 00:28:26,230 --> 00:28:26,510 S3: Nice. 757 00:28:26,550 --> 00:28:30,470 S1: Mark 89 tries in his last five NRL games. The 758 00:28:30,470 --> 00:28:32,949 S1: Roosters have conceded 30 points or more in five of 759 00:28:32,990 --> 00:28:34,350 S1: their past six against the Panthers. 760 00:28:34,390 --> 00:28:34,990 S3: Oh good luck. 761 00:28:35,030 --> 00:28:38,190 S1: Yeah that's interesting. Oh here's a good one to speak of. Milestones. 762 00:28:38,230 --> 00:28:41,990 S1: Daly Cherry-Evans needs one try for a century of NRL tries. 763 00:28:41,990 --> 00:28:43,630 S1: You know what. Jump the fence and congratulate him. 764 00:28:44,870 --> 00:28:47,310 S2: But instead of for 16 minutes for eight minutes. 765 00:28:48,590 --> 00:28:50,790 S1: Shout out to the security. And the police did a 766 00:28:50,790 --> 00:28:53,070 S1: great job last week. They're a couple of knuckleheads. But 767 00:28:53,110 --> 00:28:55,710 S1: everyone had a great, great time out. Uh, we moved 768 00:28:55,710 --> 00:28:57,310 S1: to the game that piggy and I will be calling 769 00:28:57,310 --> 00:29:01,030 S1: on Friday night. This one from Aimee Park. The storm 770 00:29:01,030 --> 00:29:04,600 S1: up against the Broncos. Melbourne Storm obviously favored to win 771 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,120 S1: this one at home. They've won their last nine against 772 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:11,040 S1: the Broncos and Aimee Park, the Broncos conceding 66 points 773 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,840 S1: in their opening two games. Can they bounce back or not? 774 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,240 S2: Um, I don't think so. Not against Melbourne. Uh look 775 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,520 S2: I think um Melbourne got a couple of good ins. 776 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,560 S2: Trent Leo is back after copping a two week suspension 777 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,920 S2: in the grand final. Um, Anderson is back. Um not sorry. Anderson. Um, 778 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,280 S2: what's his name? Who got code a couple of weeks ago? 779 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:29,400 S3: Alex McDonald. 780 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,360 S2: McDonald. Sorry. Um, and Shibasaki has been dropped. Yeah. From 781 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,680 S2: the Broncos. So Anderson, who was a former storm member 782 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,400 S2: goes back for his debut for the Broncos against his 783 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,000 S2: former club. So um I think the Broncos will be 784 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,080 S2: a lot better. They look like everything's pointed to Asramam 785 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,680 S2: having a big game. Everyone's been highlighting how many tackles 786 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,640 S2: he's missed and he wasn't missing tackles last year. So 787 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,520 S2: it's all about attitude. You know that when you when 788 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,080 S2: you tackle, it's putting your putting your body where it 789 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,600 S2: really doesn't want to go. And that's all all Brisbane 790 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,959 S2: got to do. Find that mojo and find that that 791 00:30:00,850 --> 00:30:03,530 S2: that that type of resilience I had last year in the, 792 00:30:03,570 --> 00:30:05,810 S2: in the lead up to the finals and the grand 793 00:30:05,810 --> 00:30:08,770 S2: final and perform against Melbourne this week and do it. 794 00:30:08,770 --> 00:30:10,730 S3: Yeah, I'm with me. I'm going to go to the 795 00:30:10,730 --> 00:30:12,690 S3: Melbourne Storm. Look, I think I think we'll see a 796 00:30:12,690 --> 00:30:15,970 S3: better performance from the Broncos. Um I know their coach 797 00:30:15,970 --> 00:30:18,570 S3: will just want to see him compete and compete on everything. 798 00:30:18,570 --> 00:30:20,090 S3: But I just don't think they're going to be good 799 00:30:20,090 --> 00:30:20,690 S3: enough to beat them. 800 00:30:20,730 --> 00:30:22,130 S1: I reckon Reece Walsh is going to have a big 801 00:30:22,130 --> 00:30:24,690 S1: game because the stat. He says he scored 28 points 802 00:30:24,690 --> 00:30:27,090 S1: in his last two games against the storm. There is 803 00:30:27,090 --> 00:30:30,050 S1: a stat ladies and gentlemen, very, very good stat. Uh, 804 00:30:30,090 --> 00:30:31,930 S1: Dickie knee one iron. Are we ready for another break 805 00:30:31,930 --> 00:30:32,850 S1: here on the wonderful podcast? 806 00:30:33,010 --> 00:30:33,850 S5: You can do one more game. 807 00:30:33,890 --> 00:30:35,530 S1: One more game. All right, well, no, let's have a 808 00:30:35,530 --> 00:30:37,490 S1: break now because then we can just tidy up the 809 00:30:37,490 --> 00:30:39,210 S1: Saturday games together. What do you reckon? 810 00:30:39,250 --> 00:30:40,210 S5: Oh, perfect. 811 00:30:40,250 --> 00:30:41,010 S1: Okay, beautiful. 812 00:30:43,570 --> 00:30:46,690 S2: That is perfect production. Yeah. Producing of the world. 813 00:30:47,050 --> 00:30:48,410 S1: I just thought that's a little. We can draw a 814 00:30:48,410 --> 00:30:50,650 S1: line after the Friday game and come back with more 815 00:30:50,650 --> 00:30:52,970 S1: in just a second. That shit is pretty good, actually. 816 00:30:53,010 --> 00:30:53,330 S3: By the way. 817 00:30:53,330 --> 00:30:53,810 S2: That's a great. 818 00:30:53,810 --> 00:30:55,290 S1: Shirt.

Oh, 828 00:31:06,580 --> 00:31:07,300 S2: are we on? 829 00:31:07,340 --> 00:31:10,540 S1: Actually, speaking of tight clothing. Actually, you just reminded me 830 00:31:10,540 --> 00:31:14,220 S1: about something. I've got a plea with Adam Reynolds for. 831 00:31:14,220 --> 00:31:16,340 S1: For Adam Reynolds, and I know the family really well. 832 00:31:16,380 --> 00:31:16,740 S3: Oh. 833 00:31:17,660 --> 00:31:20,660 S1: Adam, when you're suffering from a rib injury.

Next minute this bike is walking towards me. 875 00:32:59,150 --> 00:32:59,790 S1: Oh, dear. 876 00:33:00,310 --> 00:33:02,830 S2: And he goes, oh, you ain't getting out your fuckwit. 877 00:33:03,830 --> 00:33:05,510 S2: What do you mean? Who I winking at? No one. 878 00:33:05,510 --> 00:33:07,670 S2: What do you mean? I was a twitch. He goes up. 879 00:33:07,670 --> 00:33:11,350 S2: Like I said, you like me on the floor. 880 00:33:13,310 --> 00:33:14,510 S1: Bullshit. 881 00:33:16,270 --> 00:33:20,550 S2: I said no, and then the bike with the Royce, 882 00:33:20,550 --> 00:33:24,430 S2: he goes, what are you doing to me, mate? So 883 00:33:24,430 --> 00:33:25,950 S2: you little Barney Rubble. Yeah. 884 00:33:26,430 --> 00:33:27,630 S1: Well, there's a legendary story. 885 00:33:27,670 --> 00:33:28,190 S3: That's a good. 886 00:33:28,190 --> 00:33:30,310 S1: One. Hitting on a bike. But it was all set 887 00:33:30,310 --> 00:33:33,830 S1: up by Roissy. Oh, that is legendary. Brilliant stuff. Um, 888 00:33:33,870 --> 00:33:36,590 S1: Saturday footy boys, the Knights and the Warriors. The Warriors 889 00:33:36,590 --> 00:33:39,830 S1: head in his favourites, e.g. the. The Newcastle Knights. Piggy. What? 890 00:33:39,870 --> 00:33:44,150 S1: $2.7 million of their salary cap on the sidelines through injuries. Devastating. 891 00:33:44,190 --> 00:33:46,790 S3: Yeah it is look. And especially the fact that they 892 00:33:46,790 --> 00:33:49,510 S3: look so good didn't they. In that first half against manly. 893 00:33:49,510 --> 00:33:51,990 S3: They did a great job there. And then to lose 894 00:33:52,030 --> 00:33:56,000 S3: Ponga and Brown in the same game. Huge loss for them. Uh, 895 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,440 S3: Fletcher sharp back this week. Yeah. Fletcher sharp. 896 00:33:58,480 --> 00:33:58,760 S1: Back. 897 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:02,120 S3: In the halves. So obviously that's a a a a 898 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,440 S3: plus for the for the Newcastle Knights. But they're going 899 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,920 S3: to miss those two players big time. Started the season 900 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,879 S3: extremely well. Take on a Warriors outfit that have been 901 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,200 S3: on fire over the ditch for the first two rounds. 902 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,439 S3: But I'm going to go with the Warriors in that one. 903 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,400 S1: Um m g the Warriors have scored the most points 904 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,200 S1: in their history after two rounds, which is a great stat, 905 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,640 S1: and the Knights have only won one of their past 906 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,640 S1: five against the Warriors. Who do you like? 907 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,799 S2: I like the Warriors because of the fact that they've 908 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,960 S2: started so well, but I like this Newcastle team. I 909 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,560 S2: think it's, uh, indicative of their new coach, uh, Holbrook, 910 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,680 S2: Justin Holbrook, I think you can see his his presence 911 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,359 S2: on this rugby league team last week against manly. It 912 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,280 S2: wasn't rocket science. You know what they're doing. They're running 913 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,920 S2: harder and they're tackling harder. Yeah. That's all it was. 914 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,080 S2: They were just getting in the collisions and they were 915 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,839 S2: making sure that they were. Because when you when you 916 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,200 S2: lose two players like they lost, it's easy to just 917 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:51,649 S2: put your head in the sand and go, you know what? 918 00:34:51,690 --> 00:34:53,890 S2: If we get beaten today, no one's going to matter. Yeah, 919 00:34:53,890 --> 00:34:55,690 S2: but they didn't. They they scored another try in the 920 00:34:55,690 --> 00:34:58,770 S2: second half. When they scored I went, oh, here they come, 921 00:34:59,050 --> 00:35:01,850 S2: here they come. But they didn't. And they, they're, they're 922 00:35:01,850 --> 00:35:03,489 S2: a new resolve this team. And I like the fact 923 00:35:03,489 --> 00:35:06,569 S2: that Fletcher Hunt goes to fullback. Um Trey Mooney he's 924 00:35:06,570 --> 00:35:08,690 S2: he's all he's in the he's on the dais at 925 00:35:08,690 --> 00:35:10,490 S2: the moment for one of the buys of the year. Yeah. 926 00:35:10,530 --> 00:35:12,450 S2: Like I love the way he's playing I really do. 927 00:35:12,489 --> 00:35:14,730 S2: And I think the the back row of Lucas McEwen 928 00:35:14,730 --> 00:35:18,410 S2: and Frizell. Fantastic. Um but they're playing the one of 929 00:35:18,410 --> 00:35:20,730 S2: the four teams in the comp um you know Jackson 930 00:35:20,730 --> 00:35:22,890 S2: Ford who I, who I think will play origin this year. 931 00:35:23,130 --> 00:35:25,009 S1: Oh hang on, hang on. Whoa whoa whoa. That's a 932 00:35:25,010 --> 00:35:25,650 S1: big call. 933 00:35:26,130 --> 00:35:27,530 S2: That's a bold statement. Yes. 934 00:35:27,570 --> 00:35:29,170 S1: Yeah. Are you prepared to put the wig on it? 935 00:35:30,210 --> 00:35:31,090 S2: What? For this week. 936 00:35:31,130 --> 00:35:31,490 S1: Yeah. 937 00:35:32,370 --> 00:35:34,810 S3: No no no no. Well, this will be a long term. 938 00:35:35,010 --> 00:35:37,210 S2: I will put weather. Look, if he doesn't play origin, 939 00:35:37,210 --> 00:35:38,370 S2: I'll wear the wig for the whole show. 940 00:35:40,290 --> 00:35:42,649 S3: Okay? Okay, we've got it on tape there. 941 00:35:42,690 --> 00:35:43,170 S2: There is no. 942 00:35:43,650 --> 00:35:44,650 S1: No pressure, Jackson. 943 00:35:45,250 --> 00:35:49,540 S2: My origin, you bastard. Um, I look, I just like 944 00:35:49,580 --> 00:35:51,740 S2: the way Tanner Boyd has got this. You know, Tanner 945 00:35:51,739 --> 00:35:56,259 S2: Boyd with, um, uh, Metcalfe, you know, thinking. Well, he's 946 00:35:56,260 --> 00:35:58,140 S2: just warming the seat for him. Yeah, he's back in 947 00:35:58,140 --> 00:36:00,180 S2: about 3 or 4 weeks, I think. I think Boyd 948 00:36:00,180 --> 00:36:03,020 S2: stays at seven. I think Metcalfe goes to six. 949 00:36:03,060 --> 00:36:03,859 S1: Let's whip through the list. 950 00:36:03,900 --> 00:36:05,219 S2: By the way, sorry. There's a there's a young guy 951 00:36:05,260 --> 00:36:06,420 S2: making his debut. Luke Hanson. 952 00:36:06,700 --> 00:36:09,100 S3: He's a Penrith junior. I think he is Glenmore Park Brumby. 953 00:36:09,420 --> 00:36:09,900 S1: His nickname. 954 00:36:09,900 --> 00:36:11,220 S3: Pretty sure he is. Yeah. 955 00:36:11,219 --> 00:36:11,860 S1: Remember Hanson. 956 00:36:11,860 --> 00:36:12,100 S3: Yeah. 957 00:36:12,340 --> 00:36:13,460 S1: Bop bop. 958 00:36:13,460 --> 00:36:13,740 S3: Bop. 959 00:36:14,340 --> 00:36:16,420 S1: Bop bop bop. 960 00:36:18,219 --> 00:36:18,580 S2: That's. 961 00:36:20,980 --> 00:36:24,500 S1: Aged well. I thought they had blonde hair. Anyway, uh, 962 00:36:24,500 --> 00:36:27,780 S1: that's good luck to the young fella making his debut. Sharks. Dolphins. 963 00:36:27,820 --> 00:36:30,660 S1: Ocean protect, stadium sharks favourite here. I'm really looking forward 964 00:36:30,660 --> 00:36:33,580 S1: to the home game for me at Ocean Protect Stadium. Um, 965 00:36:33,620 --> 00:36:36,100 S1: Paul Gallen, he's a board member of the sharks. And 966 00:36:36,340 --> 00:36:38,540 S1: the first time we were there he pulled up and 967 00:36:38,540 --> 00:36:41,140 S1: he said OMG it's not Shark Park, it's Ocean Protect Stadium. 968 00:36:41,140 --> 00:36:43,859 S1: So he said, well righto. Jabber jaws. What's Ocean protect do? 969 00:36:43,900 --> 00:36:47,150 S1: And he said, they protect the ocean. Brilliant. 970 00:36:47,270 --> 00:36:48,870 S2: Which they do, they do, they do. 971 00:36:48,910 --> 00:36:51,150 S1: It's all about stormwater and everything else, right? But also 972 00:36:51,190 --> 00:36:53,670 S1: they do. We had later in the day, the most delicious. 973 00:36:53,670 --> 00:36:55,270 S1: It was like massaman beef curry. 974 00:36:55,310 --> 00:36:57,109 S2: Wow. Oh, you have the best food. 975 00:36:57,670 --> 00:37:00,670 S1: Can I also make a controversial comment? Sorry to interrupt. No. 976 00:37:00,710 --> 00:37:02,630 S1: While we're talking about this, I'm going to make a 977 00:37:02,630 --> 00:37:05,950 S1: controversial statement and suggesting that I'm anti Thai food and 978 00:37:05,950 --> 00:37:08,910 S1: I love Chinese. Mate, if you've got a Chinese restaurant 979 00:37:08,950 --> 00:37:10,870 S1: near you, it is much better than Thai food. 980 00:37:10,910 --> 00:37:11,629 S3: Give me a break. 981 00:37:11,670 --> 00:37:12,190 S1: Your thoughts? 982 00:37:12,510 --> 00:37:13,149 S3: Give me a break. 983 00:37:13,190 --> 00:37:13,830 S1: Yeah, but you become. 984 00:37:14,150 --> 00:37:16,270 S3: Thai food every day of the week. 985 00:37:16,310 --> 00:37:18,950 S2: No, I'll go 5050. Whatever I'm feeling, I like both. 986 00:37:18,989 --> 00:37:22,510 S1: Mate. Shout out chicken. Mongolian lamb, special fried rice, Chinese restaurant. 987 00:37:22,550 --> 00:37:25,670 S1: You can have all your fancy chicken. Yeah, mate. MSG. Hello. 988 00:37:26,150 --> 00:37:26,750 S1: It's good for. 989 00:37:26,750 --> 00:37:27,030 S3: You. 990 00:37:27,590 --> 00:37:28,710 S1: Look at me. I'm a specimen. 991 00:37:28,750 --> 00:37:29,670 S2: It's not bad for you. 992 00:37:30,469 --> 00:37:32,950 S1: Um, where were we up to? That's right, shark Park. 993 00:37:32,989 --> 00:37:33,589 S1: What are you tipping? 994 00:37:33,590 --> 00:37:35,230 S3: Shark? I'm gonna go with the shark. He's at home, 995 00:37:35,390 --> 00:37:35,910 S3: don't you think? 996 00:37:35,950 --> 00:37:37,870 S2: Don't you go for the shark. Look, both these teams 997 00:37:37,870 --> 00:37:40,830 S2: have basically got the same 19 from last week. But 998 00:37:40,870 --> 00:37:43,350 S2: Teig Wilton finds his way back after a shoulder injury. 999 00:37:43,350 --> 00:37:44,750 S2: And I like the way he plays, too. 1000 00:37:45,310 --> 00:37:47,510 S1: All the coaches will be out on Saturday night. South 1001 00:37:47,510 --> 00:37:50,270 S1: Sydney and the Wests Tigers the Rabbitohs favored to win 1002 00:37:50,270 --> 00:37:52,669 S1: this one. Jamie Humphries is back from suspension, I note. 1003 00:37:52,710 --> 00:37:54,950 S3: Is it a is it a bold prediction or bold 1004 00:37:54,950 --> 00:37:57,470 S3: statement for me this week. Tigers just win this. 1005 00:37:57,830 --> 00:37:58,230 S2: I'm with. 1006 00:37:58,230 --> 00:37:58,390 S3: You. 1007 00:37:58,430 --> 00:38:00,990 S1: Mate. You are so anti. They just. 1008 00:38:01,230 --> 00:38:01,790 S3: Win. 1009 00:38:01,989 --> 00:38:02,710 S1: The Tigers. 1010 00:38:02,710 --> 00:38:02,870 S3: Are. 1011 00:38:03,390 --> 00:38:04,629 S5: You willing to put the wig on it? 1012 00:38:04,630 --> 00:38:09,310 S3: I'm putting the wig on. The Tigers just win this week. 1013 00:38:09,350 --> 00:38:10,190 S2: Good on you. I'm with. 1014 00:38:10,190 --> 00:38:10,710 S3: You. Yep. 1015 00:38:11,030 --> 00:38:13,750 S2: I'm with you I think. Look I, I like what 1016 00:38:13,750 --> 00:38:15,950 S2: I saw from the Tigers obviously their first game and 1017 00:38:15,989 --> 00:38:18,790 S2: it was against an underwhelming Cowboys outfit. But you can 1018 00:38:18,790 --> 00:38:20,549 S2: only play what's in front of you. And I like 1019 00:38:20,550 --> 00:38:23,390 S2: what I'm seeing with Jerome and Dewey as the six 1020 00:38:23,390 --> 00:38:24,030 S2: and seven. 1021 00:38:24,550 --> 00:38:27,150 S1: I've got some stats for my buddies here. Are you 1022 00:38:27,190 --> 00:38:30,310 S1: out of the water? You know what? I challenge you 1023 00:38:30,310 --> 00:38:33,589 S1: to do the show next week. If the Tigers lose 1024 00:38:33,590 --> 00:38:37,430 S1: in a wig and some budges. Oh. 1025 00:38:39,070 --> 00:38:40,430 S2: No. No. 1026 00:38:40,469 --> 00:38:42,910 S3: Just because you've got to watch. Look at me. 1027 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,080 S1: Because the West Tigers have lost their last four games 1028 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,200 S1: at Polytech, the Rabbitohs have won their five of their 1029 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:53,040 S1: past six against the Tigers. Alex Johnston scored 20 from 1030 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,880 S1: 18 against the Wests Tigers. Tigers have got nothing in. 1031 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:57,040 S1: My buddy's gonna smash you. 1032 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,280 S3: You know what that is? That's all in the past. 1033 00:38:59,320 --> 00:38:59,560 S2: Yep. 1034 00:38:59,560 --> 00:38:59,960 S3: That's right. 1035 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:01,480 S2: That's false advertisement. 1036 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:03,560 S3: That's all in the past. This is a new Tigers 1037 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,239 S3: team this year. I was very impressed with him last weekend. 1038 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,280 S3: I think they just get better and better. 1039 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,200 S1: The Tigers you're just anti the Rabbitohs. 1040 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,600 S3: I can see straight through. I like the Tigers. I 1041 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,520 S3: like what Benji and the staff are doing there. 1042 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,040 S2: And I'm picking I'm picking Tigers. Tigers. Jamie Humphries comes 1043 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,680 S2: back for the Rabbitohs. Number seven. Solid young blokes playing 1044 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:22,279 S2: there mate.

Come back Sunday. 1052 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:45,010 S2: Draw a draw. But is there another ball? One draw 1053 00:39:45,570 --> 00:39:46,049 S2: on a hand? 1054 00:39:46,850 --> 00:39:48,850 S1: You're an employee of the Dragons and your best mate 1055 00:39:48,850 --> 00:39:50,890 S1: coaches the eels, so you've got to go with your employer, 1056 00:39:50,890 --> 00:39:51,210 S1: haven't you? 1057 00:39:51,250 --> 00:39:54,089 S3: Yeah. I'm going to draw. No, I'm going to tip 1058 00:39:54,090 --> 00:39:56,370 S3: my dragons. I think they get the first win of 1059 00:39:56,370 --> 00:40:00,330 S3: the season. Okay. Obviously a little bit desperate at the moment. 1060 00:40:00,370 --> 00:40:04,250 S3: They have played two cracking teams. They've played the Bulldogs 1061 00:40:04,250 --> 00:40:06,850 S3: in the storm to start the season. Panthers um. 1062 00:40:07,330 --> 00:40:07,450 S2: Yeah. 1063 00:40:07,610 --> 00:40:09,089 S3: Storm. Yeah. And then um. 1064 00:40:09,130 --> 00:40:10,250 S2: And they're in front of the storm. 1065 00:40:10,410 --> 00:40:13,209 S3: Well for 62 minutes I think they were winning by 1066 00:40:13,210 --> 00:40:15,770 S3: two points. And then Gutho went off for the H. 1067 00:40:15,770 --> 00:40:16,089 S3: I a. 1068 00:40:16,370 --> 00:40:16,890 S2: Logo just. 1069 00:40:16,890 --> 00:40:18,130 S3: Snapped. Wow. 1070 00:40:18,370 --> 00:40:19,850 S1: Can I give you, can I give you a stat 1071 00:40:20,170 --> 00:40:22,529 S1: off the back of Tiffany's dragons, please do. The eels 1072 00:40:22,530 --> 00:40:25,089 S1: have scored 115 points in their last three games at 1073 00:40:25,090 --> 00:40:26,730 S1: Commbank Parramatta. 1074 00:40:26,770 --> 00:40:28,930 S2: Yeah, I like him for that reason as well. I 1075 00:40:28,930 --> 00:40:31,770 S2: think um and Jermaine Hopgood's back he's been out for 1076 00:40:32,050 --> 00:40:35,650 S2: suspended for a week. Um I just think that Mitchell 1077 00:40:35,650 --> 00:40:37,890 S2: Moses and what they did against the Broncos last week 1078 00:40:37,930 --> 00:40:40,140 S2: will they'll continue against the dragons. 1079 00:40:40,180 --> 00:40:42,379 S3: Dig in for the dragons. Jacob Little on the bench. 1080 00:40:42,420 --> 00:40:42,660 S2: Yeah. 1081 00:40:42,660 --> 00:40:44,540 S3: It is. He'll come on. He's going to try and 1082 00:40:44,540 --> 00:40:45,580 S3: blow that middle away. 1083 00:40:45,620 --> 00:40:46,339 S2: Give me a break. 1084 00:40:46,380 --> 00:40:49,180 S3: Yeah. Give cookie a breather. But his running game and 1085 00:40:49,180 --> 00:40:51,739 S3: his speed at dummy half. Hopefully he can cause some 1086 00:40:51,739 --> 00:40:52,540 S3: drama for Kevin. 1087 00:40:52,540 --> 00:40:54,859 S1: I've given Shane a hard time. How's little Kylie's ankle? 1088 00:40:54,900 --> 00:40:55,620 S1: Is he alright? 1089 00:40:55,620 --> 00:40:58,140 S3: Well, I was watching Kyle kick goals yesterday, so he's 1090 00:40:58,140 --> 00:40:59,300 S3: good to go. He's fine. 1091 00:40:59,580 --> 00:41:02,900 S1: Shout out to Kyle. Don't send me those nasty messages, please. Kyle. 1092 00:41:02,940 --> 00:41:05,900 S1: After bagging your father, they're rock solid. Father and son 1093 00:41:06,180 --> 00:41:09,140 S1: are cowboys. Titans. Anyone brave enough to tip the Titans here? 1094 00:41:09,180 --> 00:41:09,900 S1: No no. 1095 00:41:09,940 --> 00:41:10,420 S3: No. 1096 00:41:10,460 --> 00:41:10,900 S1: No. 1097 00:41:11,260 --> 00:41:11,739 S3: This this. 1098 00:41:11,980 --> 00:41:14,140 S2: Not yet. Well, no, because this obviously is a game 1099 00:41:14,140 --> 00:41:16,420 S2: that none of them have won a game yet. And 1100 00:41:16,460 --> 00:41:18,940 S2: I think like Todd Payten, if he gets beaten against 1101 00:41:18,980 --> 00:41:22,180 S2: the Titans that could be it. The pressure's on. 1102 00:41:22,500 --> 00:41:23,340 S3: Unfortunately. 1103 00:41:23,700 --> 00:41:26,740 S2: We've lost two. I got it back for him. 1104 00:41:26,980 --> 00:41:27,739 S3: Ruben Kotter's back. 1105 00:41:27,780 --> 00:41:30,460 S2: Ruben Kotter's back. And you know what? He's his wife. 1106 00:41:30,820 --> 00:41:35,540 S2: His wife underwent, like, open heart surgery or something. So, Ruben, 1107 00:41:35,540 --> 00:41:36,660 S2: if all the best to you and your family. 1108 00:41:36,820 --> 00:41:37,510 S3: Yeah, definitely. 1109 00:41:37,550 --> 00:41:39,430 S1: Alright, boys. So that's a look at round number three 1110 00:41:39,430 --> 00:41:42,270 S1: of the competition before we wrap up. Uh, we need 1111 00:41:42,270 --> 00:41:45,109 S1: levees lock pick milligrams multi. I'll kick it off while 1112 00:41:45,110 --> 00:41:45,910 S1: you boys think. 1113 00:41:45,950 --> 00:41:46,310 S3: I've already. 1114 00:41:46,310 --> 00:41:48,109 S1: Got it. I'm going to I'm going to back the 1115 00:41:48,110 --> 00:41:50,710 S1: Rabbitohs to win. And I'm going to back Alex Johnston 1116 00:41:50,710 --> 00:41:52,830 S1: to score a two tries. 1117 00:41:52,870 --> 00:41:54,509 S3: Okay well if we're going to go against each other 1118 00:41:54,510 --> 00:41:57,509 S3: because Piggy's pick is obviously the Tigers one. He and 1119 00:41:57,510 --> 00:42:00,870 S3: I've put the the wig on it this week. If 1120 00:42:00,870 --> 00:42:03,469 S3: the bunnies lose yeah. Then you're in the budgies and 1121 00:42:03,469 --> 00:42:04,109 S3: wearing the wig. 1122 00:42:04,110 --> 00:42:04,910 S1: No I shan't be doing that. 1123 00:42:05,110 --> 00:42:05,910 S3: With the wig.

Is that why you're 1130 00:42:15,950 --> 00:42:16,910 S2: not wearing this week? 1131 00:42:16,950 --> 00:42:17,750 S1: I'm just behaving. 1132 00:42:17,750 --> 00:42:18,190 S3: Myself. 1133 00:42:19,590 --> 00:42:21,750 S1: You guys.
