1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda.

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 2: Jamny down to the Jersey. The matter around. So the

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 2: pub test today is State of Origin being played in

4
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,479
Speaker 2: other states? Does it pass the pub test?

5
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:12,559
Speaker 3: Lots of people watched it in Perth on television and

6
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 3: in the stadium. The West Australian newspaper chose to ignore

7
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 3: it and mock it, but they are owned by Seven

8
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 3: West Media, who run the AFL in that city. I

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 3: think I know they want to expand the game. We're

10
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 3: going to New Guinea, We're going to Perth. That's great,

11
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 3: that's all wonderful. But for State of Origin, the whole promotion,

12
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 3: the whole point is that it's between two very specific states.

13
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 3: It's Queensland, it's New South Wales, state against state, made

14
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 3: against mate. Why played those games in other places when

15
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 3: those two cities are the ones that are embroidered.

16
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 2: But it's about expanding a brand, and I think we

17
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,959
Speaker 2: should be like America with this. So in America you've

18
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,599
Speaker 2: got the NBA, you got the NFL, you got the baseball,

19
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 2: they've got ice hockey. Florida just won the ice hockey.

20
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 2: Florida's nowhere near anything.

21
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 4: But that's not the state of Origin.

22
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 2: But it's what I'm saying is we've got to get

23
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 2: past the mentality that AFL is a Victorian game, NRL

24
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: is a New South Wales Queensland game. They're both great

25
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 2: codes of football. It's not about what state you're front.

26
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 2: It's about you see these.

27
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 4: Athletes doing about what state the state of origin.

28
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 3: The rest play regular games in anywhere we expand the brain.

29
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 2: But I just, I honestly find that Australians we can

30
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: be so small minded about stuff that's spanding.

31
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 4: No, it's not in the future.

32
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 2: So imagine down the track one day twenty sixty that

33
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 2: Perth fields the state of origin side.

34
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 4: And we'll played in Tasmania. That makes no sense.

35
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 3: I'm just saying this is when you say it's about

36
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 3: being bigger, state of origin brings it down to something

37
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 3: primal and small.

38
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 4: That's the whole point of it. That's the whole marketing

39
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 4: of it.

40
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: Yep.

41
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: So you know, and I'm a visionary, you're you know, yeah, yeah, yeah,

42
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 2: closed closed minded.

43
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 4: Let me see what you think. Jonesy leaves this show immediately.

44
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 4: State of Origin being played in other states? Does it

45
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:00,559
Speaker 4: pass pub test?

46
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: I'm sort of in the half and half of the Amanda.

47
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: I think I'm happy to promote the game in other states,

48
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: but it only should ever be game one. They get

49
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: to play there first, because game two you can tie

50
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: up the series. They would have a New South Wales

51
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: of Queensland winning in a state that's not theirs.

52
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 5: Well, I think it passes the pub test. I think

53
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 5: it's a great idea. You know, those people in Perth,

54
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 5: they want to see the games.

55
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: It's great.

56
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 5: You know, the more places they play, the better I think,

57
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 5: and lucky to Honestly, I don't care that they play

58
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 5: wherever they play. You know, the Moon doesn't bother moon.

59
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,679
Speaker 5: But if you really want to get them involved, a

60
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 5: don't do his fing, you know, don't get New South

61
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,959
Speaker 5: Whiles and Weasland. Why don't they just make up on

62
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 5: a state sem to play Origin and then that expands

63
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,839
Speaker 5: actual Origin games as well. Instead of three, you could

64
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 5: make a scene for Melbourne play one age and then

65
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 5: they just eliminate each other out.

66
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: I should only be paid in New South Wales and Queensland, so.

67
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 2: That's visionary, not that last one. They're the one in

68
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 2: the middle there because down the track you could have

69
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:01,079
Speaker 2: because Victorians are starting to like NRL right now, you're

70
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 2: not seeing it as much as AFL, but there's going

71
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 2: to be a kid that goes, I like playing league.

72
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: I'm going to represent.

73
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: Do you think that Victorian state of origin? They'd like

74
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 3: it if it was played in Townsville.

75
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 4: This is your No, I'm not.

76
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 3: It's playing your state of origin right now. It's between

77
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 3: two hot teams in their cities.

78
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: There's grassroots and what that first caller said about playing

79
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 2: the first game, I think that has great merit. So

80
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 2: the first game gets played wherever in the world, Timbuck

81
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 2: two and then the last two deciding games end.

82
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 4: Up Timbuck too.

83
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 3: A lot of the original players are from timbucktoo, so

84
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 3: they'd field a very good side.

85
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 2: Thank you for all your calls.
