8
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,640

9
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 2: Here.

10
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: He is Morning, Freddy, Hi, Brad.

11
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 2: Good morning. It's been a while.

12
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 3: It's been far too long. How have you been traveling.

13
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 2: I've been traveling. Well you you are a superstar. You

14
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 2: are everywhere.

15
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 3: Thank you, well, thank you. I've been everywhere except on

16
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 3: your end of your phone. Brad bumdled me once.

17
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: Really yeah, yeah, yeah, what happened there?

18
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 3: Well, he's bomb diled me and I was happy to

19
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: receive it.

20
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: Did you get any information?

21
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 3: He talks out of his backside. They had quite a

22
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 3: long chat.

23
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: I imagine, Freddy. This time of year is when you

24
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: get a lot of fruit baskets and cartons of beer

25
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 1: because the selection for the State of Origin side is there.

26
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good time here. There's some really good

27
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: footy at the moment. And the big thing I'll find

28
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 2: is there's been such great crowds. There's plenty of fact

29
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 2: out stadiums and Penrith and deals are sold out on

30
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: for tomorrow and night. But I haven't you know, there's

31
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: some really great footy at the moment and just in

32
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: generally everyone's loving their footy.

33
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 3: Well, but what do you you know? What's happened with

34
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 3: the Roosters? Do you have any insight? I was hearing

35
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 3: that they can't people saying they're not even going to

36
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 3: make the finals. Now what do you think?

37
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 2: Well, they've made a few changes, and I think they

38
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 2: always talk about getting the Rooster style Amanda, so I

39
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 2: think they haven't quite found it. But then there's plenty

40
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: enough good players there that I'll turn it around. I

41
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 2: think with Victor there. Luke Carey just seems like he's

42
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 2: finding he's major at the moment. He's one of those

43
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 2: blokes that's changed positions. So it'll work out. That'll come

44
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 2: good good.

45
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, let's rip it around. Rabbit Oz versus Broncos tonight.

46
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 2: What's happening Rabbits no pain, hearts, no Kirk Capewell. So

47
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 2: I think the rabbit is Cody Walker. I think they

48
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 2: have a blinder, all right.

49
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 3: What about the Raiders and the Bulldogs Friday Cafee.

50
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 2: That's a toughye Jared Kroger's bag. He's played like a

51
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 2: thousand games for them. So I'll go with the Raiders

52
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:37,119
Speaker 2: at home.

53
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: Do you think we'll guss be sitting up in the stands.

54
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 2: Again, Yes, for sure, eating a pie. Nothing sexy. I

55
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 2: think eating a pie.

56
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 3: I can think of a few things.

57
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: He looked like, he looked like a nero just watching

58
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: from the and Trent was down on the field jumping around.

59
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: I loved it. It was great.

60
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 2: It's unreal.

61
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 3: What about Panthers in the Eels.

62
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: I'll go with the Panthers. That will be twenty two

63
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 2: in a wow. Well, I don't think I know twenty

64
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: How good are.

65
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: They Seals versus the Tigers West Tigers.

66
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 2: That's another ground that should be pretty much sold out.

67
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 2: It looks awesome in the moment with a new stadium.

68
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 3: Okay, all right? And the Roosters and the Titans, Bruisters,

69
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 3: Cowboys and the Knights, Well, Cowboys have.

70
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 2: Been last week. That was the best performance of the year.

71
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 2: I think, by anything, they were awesome. So I think the.

72
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,679
Speaker 1: Cowboys storm versus Dragons storm.

73
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 3: Okay, think about it. The sharkis.

74
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: This young man? How good is he?

75
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 2: What of these ReBs hasn't been calling? He would love.

76
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: Not since I heard Raps say no and Andruku carving

77
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 1: out a career at the SFS tonight, have I heard him?

78
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: I'd love to hear him say see for Talakai.

79
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: Uh he would just here be frothing at that. But

80
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 2: hopefully we might be able to get him back for

81
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: a game. We'll do a Sharky's game, and I think

82
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 2: the Sharkys will win.

83
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 3: Well, let's beat Daryl Summers, who got six out of

84
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 3: eight and he knows nothing about n r L.

85
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: That's six out of a Maybe you could get him

86
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: to be assistant coach for State of Origin.

87
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,000
