1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:05,880 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning. Aaron Molan is joining 2 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,799 Speaker 1: us this morning. Hello eron, good morning, Good morning. How 3 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:10,560 Speaker 1: are you votes. 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:12,879 Speaker 2: We're excited, Well, well we're excited. 5 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: We were just saying in our pub test AFL NRL 6 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,279 Speaker 1: going ahead. Some people think they shouldn't. Obviously you're a 7 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 1: fan of them, the games being played. You know what, 8 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: it's I'm a little bit nixed, to be entirely honest, 9 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: to see. I look, I understand the economic implications. You 10 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: know how incredibly Rott will be for all the codes 11 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: if they don't go ahead, But I also think, you know, 12 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: we've got to put health and safety of players and 13 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: fans and every the country first. And look, I guess 14 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: you've just got to trust the advice of you know, 15 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 1: the chief medical officers. But look, I would be disappointed 16 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: if it wasn't going ahead, but I would be fully understanding. 17 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: And I don't know how many weeks we've got left. 18 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: I hope a few, but yeah, I don't know. I 19 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: think it's probably only a matter of time until a 20 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: player gets tested positive and then you know, there's some 21 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: really tough decisions to make, So it's really unknown. It's 22 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: it's unprecedented, and it's it's quite disconcerting, to be honest 23 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: with you. It's just a lot of unknown for a 24 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,839 Speaker 1: lot of people. And I just keep thinking about even 25 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: you know, we're all in studio now, so I'm hosting 26 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 1: Friday nights footing tomorrow nights from Channel nine as a 27 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: precautional of our hosts and commentators are now just doing 28 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: it from studio. But I think about all the guys 29 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: that you know, do the rinking out in the field, yeah, 30 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: that now don't have jobs, and you know, all the 31 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: crew and it's a lot of people from Fox Sports. 32 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: He's lost their jobs yesterday. And it's just it's awful, 33 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,839 Speaker 1: isn't it. You know, It's just it's and we haven't 34 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: even got to what they're referring to the peak of 35 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: the issue, and it's just, yeah, it's a really bad 36 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: time for everyone. So hopefully a bit of regularly can 37 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: provide a bit of respitement, a bit of joy to people. 38 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: Depending on how your team goes, I'm pretty. 39 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 2: Sure we can make this work. It is an essential 40 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: service to the old league, and I don't think we 41 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 2: need to be It's an essential service and these times 42 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: people want normalcy. Eer they want to see a game 43 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: of footy get played. You're watching on the telly and 44 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: that's it. 45 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: It's no and I agree with you. And look, people 46 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: often I think underestimate the power of sport, and sport 47 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: is you know, you look at even during wartime and 48 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: one of the only things that our soldiers get to 49 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: do when they're overseas, they don't really have a lot 50 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: of communication, but they get to follow their favorite footay 51 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,119 Speaker 1: team scores and I'll always be updated and whatever sold 52 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: just come home. That'sn't a heap of stories on this 53 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: Frans that day they talk about the fact that when 54 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: they're in the midst of a real battle, but following 55 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: their footy team, getting to score updates and you know, 56 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: being able to even watch cliffs is one of the 57 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: greatest stories that they have for parts from obviously speaking 58 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: to their families and that kind of thing. So sport 59 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: is incredibly powerful and particularly during tough time. 60 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 2: Okayon, before you go on a full on Scott Morrison, Randy, 61 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 2: let's go into the footy tips. Okay, they don't don't 62 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 2: make me, don't make me break out, schoe mart Stop 63 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 2: it's not sensible yet. 64 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: It's not a very impressive yesterday it did go well. Cowboys. 65 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,239 Speaker 1: I'm going to go with the Cowboys. I think their 66 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: lineup is very, very good. I think Belle Home will 67 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 1: be better for the run at Dragons. Panthers. Panthers here, 68 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: they were so good beating the Ruses. I think they'll 69 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 1: be very confident. Mathan Cleary's looking amazing. Rabbitos Broncos. This 70 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: is outside in that game tomorrow. It's a tough one 71 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: because I thought the Broncos were pretty impressive. I think 72 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: the Broncos might deal particularly well. I was about to say, 73 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: given them at home with the home crowd, but they 74 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: will be at home. Jarren Lockier will be there on 75 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: the sideline. That's always inspirational. Warriors and Raiders. Of course, 76 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: I'm going the Raiders. No surprise there. Roosters and Seagulls. 77 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: I think the Roosters will beat the Siegers. I think 78 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: they'll be smarming after losing everything round. Mind you, they 79 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: have done that the past years in a row and 80 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: it hasn't particularly happen. But I think the russ will win. 81 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: Sharks Storms going with the Storm here, Jones. I think 82 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: the Storm will be too good on the Sharks had 83 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: a great comeback, just wasn't quite enough, but I think 84 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: the Storm will be too good. West Tiger's Night. Go 85 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: with the West Tigers. A huge fan of Mad Maguires 86 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: and I love what Benji Marsha did last week. I 87 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: love older people doing good because you know we're all 88 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: getting on. I love when they, you know, people who 89 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: aren't particularly at their peaks have great games. Makes me 90 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: feel better. Titans and Eels, I'm going with the Yels. 91 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: I think Els will be too good for the time, 92 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: but I wasn't particularly impressed with them against the Raiders 93 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: last week. The second half was much better than the first, 94 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: but I think hold gookon. New coach Theah has got 95 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: a bit of work to do. But yeah, they much is. 96 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: By the way, did I do well last week? I 97 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: thought I did. 98 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 2: And your footy tips I don't know, and no one's 99 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: put them together. 100 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: How did you get Yeah, well, let's just pretend you 101 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: got them all right, Aaron. 102 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 2: You got them all right. It was the perfect round. 103 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: You win the frozen. 104 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: Chuk a right. That means that if the competition is 105 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: called off after this week, then that's a pretty good start. 106 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 2: You've done well. They have a good stats and put 107 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 2: the house on Aaron, thank you, we'll talk to you 108 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 2: next week. 109 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: Joins the and Amanda in the morning,
