1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:07,960 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning. Aaron Moland, Hello, good morning. 2 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:08,959 Speaker 1: How are we all? 3 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 2: We are very well, Thank you, Eron. I was just 4 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 2: talking about the captain's challenge. I enjoy the captain's challenge 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 2: in the football, although a few mates of mine say 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 2: they don't like the captain's challenge because captains are using 7 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 2: it to slow the game so the players can have 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 2: a rest. They'll complain about stuff like or the grass 9 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 2: isn't green enough and stuff without. 10 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 1: Any doubt whatsoever. And I think you look at you 11 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: know the reason that the new rules were introduced. It 12 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: was to get that slowing the game down out of 13 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 1: the game. And I think, you know, really smart captains 14 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: have just started using it. You watch half the time 15 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: they're like old challenge. Yeah, look, just whatever, you guys. 16 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 3: Choose how many do you get? How many does each 17 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 3: side get a game? 18 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 1: But well, if you write with them, if they're successful, 19 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: you get one, one unsuccessful one. If they're successful, though, 20 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: you'll just keep going. Right, if you're challenging and what 21 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: you're challenging turned out to be, you know you were, 22 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: you were in the right, then you just keep going. 23 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,119 Speaker 3: But the minute you're wrong, they're all gone. 24 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: Absolutely the minute you're wrong, you only get one chance 25 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: here gone. But look, I think absolutely they're being used 26 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: in that way. I think it's exciting when it's used properly, 27 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: and often you'll see a result you know will be 28 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: dependent on a captain's challenge, which make it exciting. But 29 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think for the most part it is 30 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: being used to give the big bloke threat. 31 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: Do you imagine Paul Gallum was still playing that challenge 32 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 2: would be going off like a cracker, wouldn't. 33 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 3: It, So we can have a lie down. You imagine 34 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 3: he was always questioned in the red. 35 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: And not generally on the right side of it. From 36 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: my memory mind, he's one of my colleagues. 37 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 3: Good, I know exactly. He lives down the road from me. 38 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 3: So who are you picking for tonight? Roosters, Storm? What 39 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 3: a game? 40 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: Oh this is a good one, isn't it. A lot 41 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: of people saying this could be a premiere of the 42 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: Grand Final, But that's probably not very fair to pendrate 43 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: them to the yields. But I'm going to go with 44 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: the Storm. Ruses are so down on troops again without 45 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: void Cordiner because of concussion. And by the way, how 46 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: amazing what the Roosters do when it comes to contachment, 47 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: how seriously they take it is incredibly A look at 48 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: Luke Carey last year. You know, there's been so much 49 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: research and so many new foundings findings when it comes 50 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: to the impact that heavy you know, contact sports has 51 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: on the brain. And the fact that they're choosing to 52 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: be extra cautious beyond what's required of them, I think 53 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: is a really good thing. Not obviously great the boys 54 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: being contracts, but I'm going to go with the Storm 55 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: No Cameron Smith, but I still think they'll be too good. 56 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: Warriors Tant's worries has just been amazing when rest of 57 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: times they're punching above their weight. Well until he but 58 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: ten rest will be too good for them. Eels and 59 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: Dragons so tough one because Dragons need to win to 60 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: stay in the finals, haven't we hear that? Mary McGregor, Well, 61 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: he's always been in trouble, but he had a bit 62 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: of respite when they were winning a few. But now 63 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: they're back to losing. They've lost back to back, there'll 64 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: be a lot of pressure. I think Eels will be 65 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: too good. Sharks Titans. Going with the Sharks, but the 66 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: Titan has it that they going best team in Queensland 67 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: at the moment and it's been well I think we've 68 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: ever been able to say that, so good on them, 69 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: and they deserved that. Rabbit Os. I think I'm going 70 00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: to have to go with the rabbit O's. The Cows 71 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 1: were badly seaten last week. There at all thoughts, I 72 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: think the Bunnies will be too good Raiders Broncos. Of 73 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: course I'm going with the Raiders and not even a 74 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: chance of an upset. I wouldn't imagine given them. Tavetapang 75 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: I duing near the whole news during the week, the 76 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: fact that the players have all got out to lunch 77 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: the club. The Broncos say that's okay, it was within 78 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: the rules, but the Sydney media funny this is reported 79 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: this morning that apparently the players weren't just having lunch, 80 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: but there was a ber session involved and the protocol 81 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: absolutely and look I used to I'm not saying there's 82 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: anything wrong with the Pokeys. We all love a slap 83 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 1: every now and then, but not in these circumstances. You know, 84 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: there's too much at stake. It's ridiculous. Nights manly I 85 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: think mainly is done. I think the nights will be 86 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: missed and manly, too many injuries, too many players on 87 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: the sideline. I think they're seasons over Tigers and Bulldogs. 88 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 3: This is tough. 89 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,119 Speaker 1: Tigers just haven't been playing well at all. Michael Maguire, 90 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: I think is incredibly frustrated, but he's not going off 91 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: his head which he did the week before. So we'll 92 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: see if the smoother, softer tactic works. Bulldogs they're trying 93 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: to avoid it, wouldn't spoon. I think the Tigers will win, 94 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: miss and this might hopefully bring them back into it 95 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: atention to get back into that top eight. 96 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 3: There you go. And what did you do with elizas 97 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 3: she's suddenly gone quiet? What have you done? 98 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: To be honest with you? I literally I was throwing 99 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: tablets at her because she liked pushing out in that stages. 100 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: I've throwed a packet of Doritos on the floor open. 101 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: They're everywhere. I tried lollipop. She didn't want a bar, 102 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: but I was hoping you didn't notice. But clearly, I'm 103 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: honestly I'm going to take a photo right now of 104 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 1: what this looks like. I said it to you. Please 105 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: do It's ridiculous. 106 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 3: They're not for urgan laced. They're not forgan laces, are. 107 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: They No, But that is a great idea for next 108 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: week something. 109 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 3: If you're on the area, I will talk to you 110 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 3: next week. 111 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: Joined the and Amanda in the morning.
