Speaker 6: best playerff. But when she saw Rees Welsh hugging Ben
Speaker 6: Hunt when he was falling.
Speaker 2: Apart, she goes, how beautiful is that? Look at that?
Speaker 3: So there is some You know, what I thought was
Speaker 3: a really nice moment was after the game when Madge
Speaker 3: was on the field and he was hugging as your
Speaker 3: man talking to him and then Welsh whatever. And then
Speaker 3: you see as your man pick up Walsh's daughter and
Speaker 3: shows you how close they are.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's obviously very comfortable with like uncle Ezra. You
Speaker 2: know what I mean. I just thought it was a
Speaker 2: really beautiful moment. Yeah. Yeah, my wife was crying. I
Speaker 2: look over and she's got tears.
Speaker 6: Beauty, you know, holding him, is not letting him go
Speaker 6: until he was one hundred percent sure he's okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was right.
Speaker 5: There, and Welsh ran over him up and Hunt was
Speaker 5: not sure where he was.
Speaker 2: He was the lost, poor guy.
Speaker 6: So that rugby league players are human, mate, They've got
Speaker 6: feelings and they're very nice people.
Speaker 2: They're not all bad like the media puts them out
Speaker 2: the beside pain because now it was there a nick
Speaker 2: was business.
Speaker 3: It was straight into it. Yeah there's someone that well,
Speaker 3: there's a lot of people in my business. Wow, it's
Speaker 3: the wash and man haters eat a dick straight up. Seriously,
Speaker 3: get over it. I'm sick of people still complaining about
Speaker 3: just shut the fuck up. I can swear because this
Speaker 3: is the show. So shut the funk up, get on
Speaker 3: with it, Get on with it. The winner is the greenness.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, the minute you put a ring around your finger,
Speaker 1: whatever you've done and whatever whatever you need to do
Speaker 1: to get to that spot. If it's you know, drinking
Speaker 1: out of a toilet, whatever, it all goes away because toilet.
Speaker 1: That's right to you, because guess what, that ring just
Speaker 1: takes everything away. Everything, everything they've done was right and good.
Speaker 2: If you were smart.
Speaker 3: He started his own merchandise of toilet bowl mugs, even
Speaker 3: match from the toilet.
Speaker 2: Where do we start? I don't know it starts started?
Speaker 3: Can I start with one thing that's not related to
Speaker 3: this grand But I was watching a couple of weeks
Speaker 3: ago me Cronin was the face to face unleft you.
Speaker 3: I saw it and it was created right. Yeah, And
Speaker 3: he said, when Jack Gibson took over a paramount in
Speaker 3: nineteen eighty one, I thought this was hilarious because for us,
Speaker 3: it's hilarious, he said, when jackibs and this just shows
Speaker 3: you how far we come. He said, when when Jack
Speaker 3: took her over at the Heels in eighty one, he
Speaker 3: brought something new to the game where he demanded the
Speaker 3: entire team being match fit before the season starts. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because you remember they worked full time and trained to
Speaker 3: come on nights a week. Yea, and that was groundbreaking.
Speaker 3: Sof what the team? He demanded that their match fit
Speaker 3: by round one, right, So what would happened? Id you
Speaker 3: sort of do two weeks of training and like during
Speaker 3: the year you get match fit? He went on the
Speaker 3: middle end of the year, you're playing well.
Speaker 1: Now they play well from the first game, but back
Speaker 1: then and even us we're talking the mid to late eighties.
Speaker 2: Get let's talk about the yep.
Speaker 1: Can I actually set the set the table? Because I
Speaker 1: was lucky enough, privileged enough to go to the Grand Final.
Speaker 1: I got a late call up from July, so I
Speaker 1: was in a Juilux box and it was just magical.
Speaker 2: The view, Yeah, the view was like that ground.
Speaker 5: I saw Anthony was on his install that he was there, so.
Speaker 1: With him, Well, yeah, I took ticket's actually hit up,
Speaker 1: but he was busy, So I took he was busy.
Speaker 2: His wife was watching. He's not going to give that up, No,
Speaker 2: absolutely not.
Speaker 1: So I took the boy Wonder and he's not let's
Speaker 1: say a sport or a rugby league fan. But he
Speaker 1: was he was taken. He was taken. Yeah, it was
Speaker 1: a wonderful experience for me. And I met a few people.
Speaker 1: I met one lady Tea. She was eighty two, eighty
Speaker 1: three years old, and her husband had died during the
Speaker 1: year and she lives in Tawoomba. That's something is that
Speaker 1: somewhere in Bristoane three hours from here?
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Her husband was an absolute Bronco tragic and in respect
Speaker 1: of him, he wanted she wanted to come to watch
Speaker 1: the game. So her daughter, her daughter came picked her up.
Speaker 1: They drove down, They drove down, eighty three year old woman.
Speaker 5: People, heaps of people drove down.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was it was three quarters Broncos in the
Speaker 1: in the stadium anyway, of course. And and she said, yeah,
Speaker 1: she goes, I just I just want to see them
Speaker 1: win for my husband, you know. And she had a
Speaker 1: tear and eye and it made me tear up up
Speaker 1: here up here of mine had brought brought his son.
Speaker 1: He was eighteen, and I started, I started speaking to him,
Speaker 1: and he knew more about the Broncos than I could
Speaker 1: ever imagine. And to see his emotions after the victory.
Speaker 1: Team it was I'll never forget it. It was magical. It
Speaker 1: was like when I was a young, a young boy
Speaker 1: when I was going to watch Bulldog games and we
Speaker 1: won the occasional one and I remember that feeling. And
Speaker 1: then I had the Super League next to me telling
Speaker 1: me that super League's better than that, and like I said,
Speaker 1: it was really hard.
Speaker 2: I had to bite my had to bite my time.
Speaker 5: Were you going to remember, like, because I was explaining
Speaker 5: to the boys, but eighty eight, right, so I would
Speaker 5: have been three and then obviously had the Cowboys, but
Speaker 5: it was too far.
Speaker 3: I remember Brisbane's first game against Mainly that was their
Speaker 3: first first game in the camp. Yeah, I remember that game. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I remember watching that game live. Yeah, well it wasn't
Speaker 3: live actually, So what were you alluding to in terms
Speaker 3: of you watching the game? You didn't you didn't travel down.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, and it doesn't surprise me people from Towomba.
Speaker 5: Like I was born in Mackay and then we moved
Speaker 5: around Australia because I was in the raft. But I
Speaker 5: was always a Bronco supporter, so I didn't come back
Speaker 5: to Brisbane until I was maybe nine or or ten.
Speaker 5: That's why my first jersey or game I went to
Speaker 5: was Raiders because I lived in Camera but always had Broncos.
Speaker 5: And it was really nice, like full circle to watch
Speaker 5: the boys watch the Grand Final and I was and
Speaker 5: I bowled, like absolutely bought, like even thinking about it
Speaker 5: watching videos now, like I get terrry, like it was
Speaker 5: just like for so many reasons right and it was
Speaker 5: just done.
Speaker 3: Really really tell them make the most of it because
Speaker 3: if there anything like me, you can you can you
Speaker 3: can you paint a picture for me in your living
Speaker 3: room watching the game and when the and when the
Speaker 3: when they were coming back.
Speaker 2: Can you tell me the emotions from the youngsters from
Speaker 2: the young.
Speaker 5: Man maintained that they were going to win because I
Speaker 5: felt like Penrith was our biggest gollithe, you know what
Speaker 5: I mean. So we had so obviously careering myself and
Speaker 5: the boys. Meg came down. Meg actually got one of
Speaker 5: those signed jerseys like the minute the game was over,
Speaker 5: like you know the ones that they put up on
Speaker 5: the page, and the boys were just screaming. Shane was
Speaker 5: over to thing the San Corey's mate. He's a die
Speaker 5: hard Dragon support up commiserations. We were screaming so loud,
Speaker 5: and then like I think I had Meg first, and
Speaker 5: then Money was Corey, and then I was just bawling
Speaker 5: for like an hour, and then I watched all the highlights,
Speaker 5: like the boys went to bed because was falling asleep.
Speaker 5: I watched every single interview, every clip like.
Speaker 1: One am and And that's that's what we talked about
Speaker 1: during the year. It's all about escapism and the emotional
Speaker 1: part of you. I wanted to I was wondering.
Speaker 6: Actually, yeah, I really wanted Broncos to win it more
Speaker 6: than the album because one hundred percent of coins and
Speaker 6: would enjoy that victory, whereas if Melbourne it would five
Speaker 6: percent of that.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean. Would the n R O
Speaker 2: W and the a f L as well, Yes, exactly
Speaker 2: me will talk about the W and watch it. I did.
Speaker 1: I actually came home and watched it. I actually came
Speaker 1: home and watch because I only watched the second half there.
Speaker 1: But controversially, yeah, but they'll they'll they'll play better.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: I know that you fund to try was very controversial.
Speaker 2: She didn't score.
Speaker 1: I mean, she didn't score, but that doesn't matter over
Speaker 1: eighty minutes. The better too, the better team and I forgot.
Speaker 1: I was going to say to you Melbourne, Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I like to to and Nicole said something about Israel
Speaker 1: and haters. Can I just say that sometimes, you Melbourne people,
Speaker 1: before you blow your mouths up about the highest rating
Speaker 1: sporting game in history, maybe should wait a week.
Speaker 2: Can I ask you about that last week? Last week
Speaker 2: you said AFL was six minion That's what I remembered. Yeah,
Speaker 2: four point one four point one eight. But what they
Speaker 2: do is some sort of conversion. No, Now what they
Speaker 2: do is they do the average versus the peak. Yeah,
Speaker 2: something like that.
Speaker 3: AFL was four point one eight, the league was four
Speaker 3: point four six I think, but they were both around
Speaker 3: six point four peak.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Anyway, regardless, we got more than them, and that's all
Speaker 1: I care about.
Speaker 2: And then and then all Valent. That's all val.
Speaker 5: Also because obviously my feed is flooded with Broncos. But
Speaker 5: people had like people in New York or watching four am.
Speaker 5: They're having parties and they were showing videos of them
Speaker 5: like celebrating, but they were like silently screaming because like
Speaker 5: their partners, but their the UK in England, they had
Speaker 5: like an Aussi's living in UK group and it was
Speaker 5: a full pub pat watching the Broncos play like watching the.
Speaker 1: Grand So that's that's stream that's on stream, that's not
Speaker 1: official from a Channel nine.
Speaker 5: And then if you think about viewers every single like
Speaker 5: even the pub up the road, the one that I
Speaker 5: haven't taken you to yet, but there's a massive pub
Speaker 5: up the road, so all the viewers there. So the
Speaker 5: streaming is not actually one hundred percent because if you've
Speaker 5: got two hundred people up the road at that establishment,
Speaker 5: like it's actually more. But I got video. I got
Speaker 5: so many messages. I got videos from people on LinkedIn
Speaker 5: that that were at the pub celebrating, like it's like
Speaker 5: I was playing everyone's congrat I'm like, yeah, I did
Speaker 5: really well out there.
Speaker 2: He killed it.
Speaker 3: I was doing my best, but I could hardly see
Speaker 3: it at that point. I could barely see my phone celebrating.
Speaker 5: You already knew.
Speaker 1: I know to you that the South of France and
Speaker 1: a little team called Lada show. I know that they
Speaker 1: got together and in the middle of the night, and
Speaker 1: I know they watched it because I.
Speaker 6: Don't forget all of Puppy and New Guinea would have
Speaker 6: watched the Massive Fish in New Zealand for sure, so
Speaker 6: the pap New Guinea and New Zealand that know nothing
Speaker 6: about AFLs, so they would have got the country there.
Speaker 5: You guys see that the Broncos because obviously they're the
Speaker 5: only one that's ASX listed. There's stock Worth went from
Speaker 5: one one hundred and thirty million to one hundred and
Speaker 5: eighty million.
Speaker 2: Really one of the biggest rugby league club in the world.
Speaker 5: And then they announced that they're redoing Suncorp Stadium. I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 5: of course they are.
Speaker 2: Of course.
Speaker 3: One thing that surprised me the next day at some
Speaker 3: court they got ten zero there. I thought it would
Speaker 3: be twenty or thirty yeah too.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but there's a lot of sore heads and it
Speaker 5: was the next day. Yeah, guys, they just came off
Speaker 5: the bus.
Speaker 2: It was really hot people. Was it really hot on
Speaker 2: Monday time?
Speaker 5: Hot? So hot I could still be like twenty six now.
Speaker 5: It was so hot I felt. And you know, I
Speaker 5: was saying to Nick, because you know, everyone's talking about
Speaker 5: how they were drinking and stuff. I'm like they were
Speaker 5: having because Reese Weal shpent live on his Instagram and
Speaker 5: I was like, oh no, but they were just it
Speaker 5: was really nice. They were all sitting in the middle
Speaker 5: of the field, just drinking beer and having cigars. That's
Speaker 5: all they were doing. They were singing like spy sculls
Speaker 5: and they were being silly. But that's when that Buzz
Speaker 5: when he was Ricky Jodan, Ricky was like, where where's Buzz?
Speaker 5: Buzz's number? The sack of potatoes?
Speaker 2: It Buzz deserves everything he goes, trust me.
Speaker 5: But they didn't do anything.
Speaker 2: I just had an opinion. It's not you know what
Speaker 2: I mean, But who.
Speaker 5: Cares if they were having cigars and beers.
Speaker 2: Who said anything had an issue anything.
Speaker 5: On the talk back up here there were people from
Speaker 5: you know, Melbourne and Sydney saying it wasn't.
Speaker 3: Really they would have been having lines too. You just
Speaker 3: didn't see that on Instagram.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well yeah, that's it. They won the Grand Final
Speaker 5: after nineteen years. I didn't keep drinking until I didn't.
Speaker 3: I didn't hear about the So for me, it's for
Speaker 3: me that the sweet. The sweet thing to this is like,
Speaker 3: it's interesting because when I left you last week he
Speaker 3: called me when I was driving home, She's like, how
Speaker 3: could you pick Melbourne? I said, no, no, no, I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't tip with emotion, I said I said, in
Speaker 3: my opinion, I think if I think if things go
Speaker 3: according to the plan like normal, I think Melbourne will win.
Speaker 3: But if Brisbane played footy, it's completely different. But Brisbane
Speaker 3: can't afford to give away the first half the way
Speaker 3: they have in the last two weeks.
Speaker 2: Because Melbourne and give it up.
Speaker 3: Boy was I wrong everything when everything when according to
Speaker 3: script and then Bridgman flipped it again and once they
Speaker 3: started playing footy. The performance by Reese was the best
Speaker 3: individual Grand Final performance I've ever seen in defense and attack.
Speaker 2: It was, it was, it was phenomenal.
Speaker 5: It was you imagine him in like five years.
Speaker 3: I reckon, I honestly reckon, go back to back. But
Speaker 3: sorry one second. The thing I wanted to point out though,
Speaker 3: was credit to Madge Michael maguire, you know, because I
Speaker 3: don't think he's getting enough credit, you know, for what
Speaker 3: he's done. And and I love, I personally love the
Speaker 3: fact that that Wayne Bennett is at South right watching
Speaker 3: his former club win their first premiership without him, with
Speaker 3: two people that South said weren't good enough to be
Speaker 3: there anymore, Adam Reynolds and Michael maguire. S think about
Speaker 3: that for a second and if you look at Michael
Speaker 3: Guise timeline. What what did he win? Two three in England,
Speaker 3: George two two to England and a Challenge Cup. Then
Speaker 3: he came here and he won it was South after
Speaker 3: after then he went to the Targets and it was
Speaker 3: no good.
Speaker 2: So I don't think it's a magicing there. But now
Speaker 2: his next club job is won.
Speaker 6: And again, well there you go, strike right in the
Speaker 6: Great Finals.
Speaker 2: Not to mention Origin, Origin and New Zealand.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they flogged the Australians. Regarding the Broncos, and and
Speaker 1: and Nicole said, that was it who said that the
Speaker 1: best is yet to come?
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't see the Broncos live often because they don't
Speaker 1: come to see you that often. Nor do I see
Speaker 1: the Storm that often.
Speaker 2: And you know the.
Speaker 1: First time I saw him, and the best is yet
Speaker 1: to come because they're in the infans infancy of development.
Speaker 2: They really are.
Speaker 1: They haven't understood the defensive structures are yet they enough
Speaker 1: to get away with it. The mag has got him
Speaker 1: with a pretty difficult structure of up and now and
Speaker 1: they haven't got it yet, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: They're actually a passive defensive team in the in the
Speaker 1: general sense beside right in the middle where you run
Speaker 1: into paintinghouse and you have to copy it anyway, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? So, and before you go on,
Speaker 1: I haven't seen them. They are a humongous team. They're
Speaker 1: so big and each individual player is so athletical, like
Speaker 1: no other team in the comp is as athletical. That's why.
Speaker 1: That's why they get away.
Speaker 2: From the army camps. And it's I don't.
Speaker 1: Know what, it's their natural being. And you know what,
Speaker 1: could I just say something? They did what they did
Speaker 1: and half the game Melbourne really did shut down pain
Speaker 1: and they did shut down.
Speaker 3: Isn't it amazing that what's his name? Coming comedy and
Speaker 3: drops the ball over the line which probably would have
Speaker 3: sailed it risb in one set score.
Speaker 1: And changed everything because that then then then Melbourne would
Speaker 1: have would have won the ground because they lost the ground.
Speaker 1: They lost it in the minute they lost the ground.
Speaker 2: It was all on. It was all on for everyone,
Speaker 2: you know, I mean, it was so much. It was
Speaker 2: so much fun, so much fun when that happened.
Speaker 6: When that happened, I thought straight away exactly calmer, because
Speaker 6: that's how Melbourne won against George Monday and dropped it.
Speaker 2: Over the remember, and that was the turning point. And
Speaker 2: then what happened to Melbourn dropped of differences he should
Speaker 2: have passed it. Yeah, true, he was over line. He
Speaker 2: could have scored someone on his left. Remember who it
Speaker 2: was that from Monday. Yeah, so they sort of copped
Speaker 2: the same thing where it was a big turning point.
Speaker 2: You're right, it changed.
Speaker 3: That was everything the score board was twenty six years ago.
Speaker 2: Think about it for a second. The very first video
Speaker 2: ref Grand Final. Oh I didn't know that. Yeah, with
Speaker 2: Jamie and co Yeah.
Speaker 5: They really played like they kept attacking trying to had this.
Speaker 5: Even Bellamy that he's like, you know there their plan
Speaker 5: to attack Walsh didn't work. And bell what did he say?
Speaker 5: He's like, well, you could do one thing, you could
Speaker 5: tackle him.
Speaker 2: Like his you can't tackle him what I saw?
Speaker 5: No, well no, but I think that's what I think
Speaker 5: we were talking about, like Artie when we're talking about
Speaker 5: last week. But they're so methodical and if Bronco is
Speaker 5: not that we played crazy, but we're very reactive and
Speaker 5: like very unpredictable. But you had Coats. I don't know
Speaker 5: what you guys think. Obviously Welsh is either going to
Speaker 5: take that too much suspension or plead early early play deal.
Speaker 5: But Coats dove into that tackle.
Speaker 3: You know, there's no way that wasn't as it's never
Speaker 3: in the final series if you watch it, it's it's
Speaker 3: it's head contact with the shoulder.
Speaker 2: But we've seen that. I'll make it simple. Did did
Speaker 2: he did he hit his head?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 2: His arms wrap around, But is it any different to
Speaker 2: the middle of player in the last minute His arms
Speaker 2: wrap around, But I mean that his arms wrap around?
Speaker 1: Yes, no, no, no, So that means ten in round
Speaker 1: and I agree I shouldn't.
Speaker 2: You shouldn't send him off in semi final.
Speaker 3: The ground's referee that way, definitely. That's what makes it
Speaker 3: good around in what you should be like that. I
Speaker 3: agree there too. In round ten it's ten minutes and
Speaker 3: two weeks because no rapid because it was the head
Speaker 3: with the force, which.
Speaker 5: I don't about the sin bin like that's fine. I
Speaker 5: feel like we would have won anyway. But the the
Speaker 5: way that they played, they played to get pens. That's
Speaker 5: what they were playing. They weren't playing footy, playing to
Speaker 5: get penny.
Speaker 2: Yes, started, yeah, I agree. The second half it was
Speaker 2: all about that, wasn't it. They stopped playing that they
Speaker 2: know they lost the ruck.
Speaker 1: They lost I mean they lost the ground and they
Speaker 1: were trying hard to get the ruck the ground back,
Speaker 1: so they go back to what they know to get
Speaker 1: the ground back. But Brisbane kept on pushing the front
Speaker 1: body down and they're getting up quick, so they couldn't win.
Speaker 2: They could have win the ground.
Speaker 1: And they kept on rolling and rolling and they'll go
Speaker 1: they'll go off their heads trying to get the ground there.
Speaker 2: But they got the ground back. The head every time.
Speaker 2: Peppen House was non stop this trying to get penalties.
Speaker 2: It's the whole time. But that's the ploy. That's the ploy.
Speaker 1: If you watch it live, I'm telling you now what
Speaker 1: outside I hated it. I'm like you, I despise Melbourne
Speaker 1: what they do. But guess what, watching it like.
Speaker 2: They do it. It's a work of art. I wish
Speaker 2: I suggest to you if you watch it live, sit
Speaker 2: next to me. But it's work. But it's why bottom line,
Speaker 2: bottom line. It was a should of the head. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: we're not talking about that.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
Speaker 5: Absolutemes is to play footing, not to pretend you're injured.
Speaker 5: And I know Bronkers have done that a few times.
Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with right about it, but everyone us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what if if the league literally get away,
Speaker 2: but you're going to do it.
Speaker 3: Look at look at look at Adam Reynolds. You fake
Speaker 3: the calf injury on Sunday night, consion.
Speaker 5: If you look at last week Penrith and you look
Speaker 5: at Storm, have a look at how many pens they
Speaker 5: get against. Actually any team that plays Broncos, which penalties
Speaker 5: are more?
Speaker 2: You know, you know what I thought, I still enjoyed journey.
Speaker 3: I thought it was a really bad look for the game,
Speaker 3: right you're considering it's twenty twenty five, which is no.
Speaker 3: We're seeing Adam Reynolds get carried around the field by
Speaker 3: two trainers, Like what, we don't have stretches, We don't
Speaker 3: have a buggy, Like it's twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: What are the Neanderthals? You know what I mean?
Speaker 3: But it's such a bad look for the game when
Speaker 3: two guys have to pick someone up and carry them
Speaker 3: around the whole field. You can't you don't have a stretcher.
Speaker 3: But Sushi, there's no paramedics on site.
Speaker 2: Sure there is.
Speaker 3: We have a little cart thing exactly like we've had
Speaker 3: we've had it before.
Speaker 2: Where is it? You know what I mean? It's such
Speaker 2: a bad look. Maybe it was so cheap, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean.
Speaker 6: But you know what, at the end of the day, right,
Speaker 6: this is the second time the Storm has been held
Speaker 6: scoreless in the second half. Rooster's got forty on them
Speaker 6: and kept them scoreless, sort of the red flags.
Speaker 3: It's the first time. It's the first time they've lost
Speaker 3: back to back ground finals.
Speaker 2: Exactly, but with scoreless second half, scoreless. So we've been
Speaker 2: watching this from the Storm all year, this exact way
Speaker 2: they're scoreless. Well, this exact game. They start off hot,
Speaker 2: and I'll go back to what I said last week before.
Speaker 2: They've they've never hit their peak this year, really, not
Speaker 2: at all, not really because Brisbane was so good in
Speaker 2: that second half. Respect, Melbourne's defense was so soft. A
Speaker 2: lot of those tries, the one on ones, they were
Speaker 2: just falling off.
Speaker 5: Shirt didn't scro in the second half last.
Speaker 2: They were cooked.
Speaker 3: Once once Brisbane start throwing the ball. Once said to you,
Speaker 3: once they start playing footy, no one can match.
Speaker 2: Them, no one.
Speaker 5: They feel like they feel like because I've got all
Speaker 5: the frames on my wall, but they feel like that.
Speaker 5: You know, the thir Day like that era, that's what
Speaker 5: they feel like. They feel like that two thousand and
Speaker 5: eight to like twenty sixteen, like that really good you
Speaker 5: had like just all my favorites like that was That's
Speaker 5: what they feel like. They feel like they're coming to that.
Speaker 5: Not that Thiday was my favorite at all, but they've
Speaker 5: just got a thing about them. And if you're in Brisbane,
Speaker 5: like you go to Broncos club, like you see like
Speaker 5: even when we saw painhashes cracking around like how the
Speaker 5: guys are because the way that Broncos are, they're very
Speaker 5: much like the Queensland origin team because it's the first
Speaker 5: team number one in Brisbane, but two like they just
Speaker 5: they come from like the clubs and stuff that they
Speaker 5: come from, one having had the other side of it.
Speaker 5: They're not ideal. And also the locations that people come
Speaker 5: from like ipswich Low and they're kind of rougher areas
Speaker 5: as well, like that the guys aren't coming from private
Speaker 5: school like and they're training in harder conditions like you
Speaker 5: know we had cyclones and you know fires and everything
Speaker 5: like that. They've just built a little bit I think differently.
Speaker 5: But they and Madge is just he is so good.
Speaker 5: I just think, and he's so much respect to them.
Speaker 5: Even when he was drinking out of the toilet Munk,
Speaker 5: I was like, good on you, like just he just.
Speaker 2: Funny And how does it feel? Were the cop with you?
Speaker 2: Southwest coach.
Speaker 5: I'm fine with that. I told you guys last.
Speaker 7: Year that.
Speaker 6: You know, I agree you're It's a nice thing. Everyone's
Speaker 6: talking about the Bellamie how he's the greatest of all.
Speaker 6: He's won three premierships, right, and every one of those
Speaker 6: premierships is one or with is with.
Speaker 2: Cameron Smith Atalker.
Speaker 6: Just goes to show how good Cameron Smith is a
Speaker 6: he doesn't want a premiership without Smithy at hooker and.
Speaker 2: He's an important role. How important does Cameron Smith play?
Speaker 3: The guy's made eleven Grand finals. We made eleven, but
Speaker 3: he's made thirteen to it was stripped.
Speaker 5: Okay if you look at seven and like, I know
Speaker 5: you guys said last week that the boys love him
Speaker 5: and stuff, but I think even looking at press conferences,
Speaker 5: have you ever heard I think he's won five?
Speaker 2: Three I thought he had won five anyway, three take
Speaker 2: away if you two.
Speaker 5: Have you ever seen Madge throw the boys under the
Speaker 5: bus like Bellamy has done in previous press conferences.
Speaker 2: Not just has he thrown him under the bus.
Speaker 5: No, when Bellamy's like, oh well you could actually tackle
Speaker 5: him like he's been frustration, it's just frustrating. You know
Speaker 5: how you like watching Ricky Stewart, I like watching Bellamy
Speaker 5: press conferences.
Speaker 1: Really yeah, Okay, you know what if we talk about
Speaker 1: some individual performances on the night and in general the game,
Speaker 1: let's talk about the elephant the room obviously, Ree Walsh.
Speaker 1: You know what, because I've watched him live, I learned
Speaker 1: so much about him. There's sometimes there's sometimes in your
Speaker 1: life you walk onto the field and you have an
Speaker 1: out of body experience. I mean, I'm sure we've all
Speaker 1: we've all played a game and we had an out
Speaker 1: of body experience for maybe five minutes. When I saw
Speaker 1: Reese for about five minutes on you that he was
Speaker 1: going through that.
Speaker 5: Is that the first time you've seen him play live?
Speaker 1: Ye?
Speaker 5: Oh yeah.
Speaker 3: Yet I've always maintained, George that when I used to
Speaker 3: play soccer, I never lost.
Speaker 2: We just ran out of time at a time.
Speaker 1: You always had time to score another another couple. It
Speaker 1: was an experience, absolutely, No, Absolutely, it was a real experience.
Speaker 2: I haven't seen the Broncos for maybe five minutes.
Speaker 3: I saw six weeks ago, except that's I will always
Speaker 3: have that night in Bridgbone, and that's all I've got.
Speaker 2: That's all I've got. Trust me.
Speaker 1: He was playing at a pace mentally and physically much
Speaker 1: quicker than anyone on the field, including his his own team.
Speaker 1: He would go to play before the ball will be there.
Speaker 1: You've seen him live. Tea told me to tell me
Speaker 1: if this is true. He's so explosive off the mark.
Speaker 1: He will run in shape and it's a it's a
Speaker 1: sort of quick jog, and then when he gets the ball,
Speaker 1: he explodes. So what happens to the defender because he's
Speaker 1: going at Reese's pace when he's jogging. When Reese explodes,
Speaker 1: he's in the saddle. That's why he gets it on
Speaker 1: the outside shoulders, because he goes bang and you're before
Speaker 1: you know it, he's right next to you.
Speaker 5: You know, because I didn't know, like I thought that
Speaker 5: you'd seen that team live. Obviously, I've seen them like
Speaker 5: a ton of times in the last few years. But
Speaker 5: they that's why when I talk about when they've lost,
Speaker 5: they're just off and I can't explain it. Because I've
Speaker 5: seen them play live, right, because it's very visible. But
Speaker 5: even the way that him and Man work well together,
Speaker 5: Okay and.
Speaker 2: Mariana Karapani that's what That's what I was going to
Speaker 2: get to.
Speaker 1: The only human that is on his on his level
Speaker 1: in terms of mentally and physically the same pace is
Speaker 1: Man Now like him, loving doesn't matter. He's got something
Speaker 1: that that compliments Reese.
Speaker 2: The best thing that could have happened.
Speaker 1: At the end of that game or in midway for
Speaker 1: the game, unfortunately it was, was those two injuries because
Speaker 1: Man went to five eight right and then Reese went
Speaker 1: the first receiver.
Speaker 2: Then he just kept on going and they they they
Speaker 2: they explode.
Speaker 1: Together, Okay, and it was all I can say is
Speaker 1: what I saw was something that I haven't seen.
Speaker 5: For a long Man Man was he absolutely like obviously
Speaker 5: we can talk about half like Hals is brilliant.
Speaker 2: Different thing. Yeah, second thing was outstanding.
Speaker 5: He absolutely I was not surprised, but he absolutely outdid himself.
Speaker 2: I agree, I agree, which is a big stuff.
Speaker 1: I'm going to say that he was so close to
Speaker 1: Man of the match. Both of those two were so
Speaker 1: close to each other in Man of the Match.
Speaker 2: That's how good. He was.
Speaker 1: He was good when you see him live, Bud, It's
Speaker 1: it's completely different on television.
Speaker 2: I'm in all of this Broncast team. Sorry.
Speaker 6: You know which guy I thought was very underestimated. I
Speaker 6: thought he had an outstanding game, but didn't get much kudos.
Speaker 2: Did Mariner?
Speaker 6: He was, He was amazing and you've been telling me
Speaker 6: how good he is. But that game he ran to
Speaker 6: over two hundred meters. He was carrying it back so hard.
Speaker 6: He put him on, He put him in good positions
Speaker 6: all the time. If it wasn't Walsh, it was a
Speaker 6: Mariner run, you know what I mean? He really stood out.
Speaker 1: What Yeah, what I like about Mariana and she is
Speaker 1: that how they bring the ball back. That means that
Speaker 1: means Hass and Willison can be attackers, not not mules
Speaker 1: and carry carry you out of trouble the back three
Speaker 1: or four I can say because Stag does the same thing.
Speaker 1: Because because Stag turns an ordinary set into a good set, Okay,
Speaker 1: then you got pay Hass as an attacking weapon, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Now, his first thing, he was
Speaker 1: well contained. But you know what what Adi says, he's
Speaker 1: not human. Second stick, when I saw him he's not human.
Speaker 1: You know what, idea I've never you know what, throw me,
Speaker 1: throw me seven a sever throw me the best Bronco
Speaker 1: front front roller was what I saw for for ten minutes.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm not going to say as good
Speaker 1: as them yet, but let me tell you, you know what
Speaker 1: we see on television, see it live. I mean all
Speaker 1: what I saw as a different player. Lazarus, he's getting
Speaker 1: to those he's getting to those names.
Speaker 2: He's getting to love.
Speaker 5: How Peigs came on all the injuries, just stoic. It's like,
Speaker 5: I just felt very calm and he was just like methodical.
Speaker 5: He's like, it's okay, it's gonna keep.
Speaker 2: Going, you know what, even even to the end.
Speaker 1: Storm.
Speaker 2: I mean, we're not talking about them. They didn't play
Speaker 2: all that bad. They didn't let the game get out
Speaker 2: of hand, and at the end, for me, it was there.
Speaker 2: It was the one on one defense was terrible. Again,
Speaker 2: but you know what, a freakish retackle. The one on
Speaker 2: one defense was terrible.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, we were laughing, but.
Speaker 1: A freakish think tackle retackle kept out of scoring a
Speaker 1: try and winning the game.
Speaker 2: So they will not far away. But yeah, I agree,
Speaker 2: we just saw it now.
Speaker 1: We just saw the replay and it's not a storm
Speaker 1: top of the defensive.
Speaker 5: I don't know what happened. I don't know halftime or something,
Speaker 5: but I feel like Warbrick really annoyed them because we
Speaker 5: were laughing so hard because man was just smashing war bread.
Speaker 5: He was terrible, more aggressive than usual, like we were killing.
Speaker 1: How many I was I was on that side second half,
Speaker 1: Tea Israel was absolutely bathing him. I don't know what
Speaker 1: they were saying. They must have been talking about four
Speaker 1: X versus to his new I don't know, but Victoria,
Speaker 1: but he was bathing him, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: And then and then that just all got into him
Speaker 1: and then he was bathing. Mean, he was bathing, mean, you.
Speaker 5: Know all Ezra's stuff that happened. He was like that,
Speaker 5: That's what it was like, that's that's Ezra. But better
Speaker 5: that's Ezra.
Speaker 2: That's had they forget he.
Speaker 3: Copied in the last two years ago he scored a
Speaker 3: trick and then had it taken off him in the
Speaker 3: last minutes.
Speaker 2: All those demons washed at a question. For all those
Speaker 2: demons are gone, is it.
Speaker 3: Fair to say that wash has ever taken cleary in
Speaker 3: terms of Grand Final.
Speaker 2: Performance, uh for for eighty minutes? Absolutely yeah, yeah, it
Speaker 2: was absolutely.
Speaker 6: Yeah, probably the best out of everyone I've seen.
Speaker 1: Clearly, I think everybody hands down the best individual pharmisly
Speaker 1: grand final I've ever said.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 5: Where would you rate it on the best Grand Finals
Speaker 5: you've seen?
Speaker 2: Good?
Speaker 3: Right up there? It was really excited. Yeah, like a
Speaker 3: lot of people. And it's just my opinion. A lot
Speaker 3: of people talk about twenty fifteen when the Cowboys beat
Speaker 3: the Broncos, right, and for me I did too JT No,
Speaker 3: But for me, that's one of the most boring games
Speaker 3: I've ever seen, with the exception of the last fifteen
Speaker 3: to twenty minutes, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: It was the greatest for me.
Speaker 3: The greatest Grand Final ever is still eighty nine, and
Speaker 3: that's Steve Jackson. Try Yeah, if you haven't seen it,
Speaker 3: get on YouTube and look at it.
Speaker 5: Am I told this, But I was obviously getting lots
Speaker 5: of messages from everyone, and I always give Greg burn
Speaker 5: to ship just generally, and I just I wrote to
Speaker 5: him and he's like, congrats.
Speaker 8: You'll get blocked if I hear too much about But everyone,
Speaker 8: like you know, the in like the flooded mess just
Speaker 8: and stuff from people, and it's kind of nice.
Speaker 5: I like the fact that even even through this, saying
Speaker 5: to Nick last week, I went to a client and
Speaker 5: they were like, oh, I heard you're on a potty
Speaker 5: and now like all these people are listening to it
Speaker 5: now on Spotify. But when I talk about it or
Speaker 5: I talk about the potty, like, I got messages from
Speaker 5: people that don't really follow NRL but they were watching it.
Speaker 5: And that's what I think about, like Broncos or whatever
Speaker 5: team you support it. Actually, it's just the greatest thing ever.
Speaker 3: If Paramouna won the Grand Final on Sunday night, we'd
Speaker 3: have to do this on Friday night because I wouldn't
Speaker 3: behme yet. I still wouldn't behave yet straight off. I'd
Speaker 3: have to dial in from whatever fucking gather I'm lying in.
Speaker 2: Saying what did you.
Speaker 5: Think, Ardie? So you watched it with your wife.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was a fantastic game. I thought it was back.
Speaker 6: I was so impressed with the Broncos at twenty two twelve,
Speaker 6: I go, they can't do it again. This is the
Speaker 6: third week they've come back. They've only led affording me.
Speaker 6: It's in those two games.
Speaker 2: That dropped Try and changed everything it did.
Speaker 6: But I just couldn't see Broncosts coming back. And the
Speaker 6: second half they were on fire, like Ruce Walsh just
Speaker 6: destroyed them.
Speaker 2: That Try, who scored, was just all him. That was
Speaker 2: just give me the ball, I'm going to get it
Speaker 2: over the line and used to follow me and they did.
Speaker 2: He was cock. They've come back and they just kept
Speaker 2: going and going.
Speaker 3: They've come back six times in the last twelve rounds exactly.
Speaker 6: And they lost Hunt, they lost Billy Walters, they lost
Speaker 6: what's his name, what's the Reynolds, So they lost three
Speaker 6: and they had Israelmer and Ruthe Walsh to come in
Speaker 6: and take.
Speaker 2: I could argue losing Hunt Reynolds. Did I think.
Speaker 1: Was coming in at first? Received that, Yeah, and then
Speaker 1: then then that's when he's just so I'll say it again.
Speaker 1: I'll say it again, because they weren't really supporting Roles anymore. No,
Speaker 1: they weren't. Reese was on a different planet. And remember, sorry,
Speaker 1: the only lost Hunting what five minutes?
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he was. He was actually said in the table.
Speaker 5: They lost lost him.
Speaker 1: Because I saw an interview afterwards and he still looked
Speaker 1: pretty concast.
Speaker 2: So I don't think he can play this week.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna play for one or two weeks. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So so let's let's if you watch the roof, all
Speaker 1: the tries came off. It wasn't it wasn't. It wasn't.
Speaker 1: I came off a painhouse run. Okay, he created the opportunities. Okay,
Speaker 1: he was on a different planet when he got together
Speaker 1: with in the middle. Okay, then they both went together
Speaker 1: and created things. So so you take grease away from
Speaker 1: that that that game, Okay, I'll tell you now, it's
Speaker 1: not going to be broncos I think everyone knows that because.
Speaker 2: Every everything, everything came off, even that.
Speaker 3: But I'll say George my favorite saying if my grandmother had.
Speaker 1: There was a question, I asked, question the thing? So
Speaker 1: so so make they play good?
Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, the second stint of the forwards or Patrick
Speaker 2: carry my god, Cape Kobe.
Speaker 1: He he was brilliant, Oh my god, yea, so pain
Speaker 1: was on the back burner or they they contained pain
Speaker 1: first half? Okay, but guess what, like I said, Patrick
Speaker 1: came up honestly, then was.
Speaker 2: He carry him play eighty minutes? Eighty minutes?
Speaker 1: He was amazing. He he was he was the driving
Speaker 1: force in the middle. And then and then back or
Speaker 1: the middle of the second half came what's that other
Speaker 1: back roll? Wilson, Willison, will God and then and then
Speaker 1: then they put pain on the last ten minutes. You
Speaker 1: know that Payne got about a thirty minute break or
Speaker 1: twenty something minute break.
Speaker 2: Okay, Wilson is just as good as paint half. I
Speaker 2: don't think Payne was one hundred percent because he could have.
Speaker 2: I saw, I saw, I saw him more. The thing
Speaker 2: he wasn't good last week he was. Yeah, so no, no,
Speaker 2: he wasn't good.
Speaker 1: Look the guys him, most other people, most of the
Speaker 1: guys wouldn't wouldn't play, wouldn't play a month ago. The
Speaker 1: guy's gonna have an operation on his back for God's sake.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so yeah, the year.
Speaker 5: The rounds at the Boys because I was just looking,
Speaker 5: but the rounds that the Boys didn't have Walsh or Reynolds,
Speaker 5: they actually got into their own because you had Arthur's remember,
Speaker 5: and you had that ship a psyche, Arthur's Marina, that
Speaker 5: kind of team. They did well without Walsh. They didn't.
Speaker 5: Actually that was the round the first game we beat you, guys, George,
Speaker 5: We didn't have walshe then and that was forty two
Speaker 5: twenty or whatever about eighteen, so they did well. But Walsh,
Speaker 5: hands down, will never leave the Broncos.
Speaker 2: Like it's already less than once.
Speaker 5: I mean now now that they can win.
Speaker 2: Three six, you might make him an offer he's not
Speaker 2: going to go to or something. Yeah, but it was
Speaker 2: Did we all have a good time watching it? Yeah? Absolutely?
Speaker 2: For me, I was one of the best.
Speaker 3: Definitely one of the top five Grand Finals I've seen
Speaker 3: in terms of excitement.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the same stuff.
Speaker 1: Look for me, it was an event, it was something
Speaker 1: special and I was privileged enough to watch, to watch
Speaker 1: them the first time. I've got a different I have
Speaker 1: a different view now on the storm as well, and
Speaker 1: I call it and I'll be I'll be saying, you
Speaker 1: know how Melbourne try to win the ground, Well, I've
Speaker 1: been against that for years and years and years.
Speaker 2: I saw it live. Now I call it a work
Speaker 2: of art.
Speaker 1: I call it a work of art because guess what
Speaker 1: Broncos was trying to do exactly the same thing, so
Speaker 1: George trying to do exactly the same thing. So they
Speaker 1: blame they blame somebody who does who does something the
Speaker 1: rest Yeah.
Speaker 2: And just everybody just to confirm that game. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: I just wish then we're playing play football, just to
Speaker 2: affirm that game.
Speaker 3: That game is the single biggest spawning event for twenty
Speaker 3: twenty five in Australia, with four point four six million
Speaker 3: average views a peak of six point four million.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, all I care about is what I care about.
Speaker 5: You should watch like next year, and you, guys, because
Speaker 5: you're right there and there's seven games get played there,
Speaker 5: you should watch a Dolphins game.
Speaker 2: Yes, I haven't seen obviously.
Speaker 3: I think in the n RL they're going to have
Speaker 3: some competition from the A League next year because a
Speaker 3: league had a high TV ratings this year is about
Speaker 3: four hundred and forty two.
Speaker 2: People.
Speaker 1: We are we done with the Grand Fall?
Speaker 2: We can lightly touch on going to say, can we
Speaker 2: just quickly quick, let's let's mention the referera was good.
Speaker 2: We're going to give more. He was, well.
Speaker 3: Look, I think he refereed in line with how Grand
Speaker 3: Final should be referred. When I talk about the bit
Speaker 3: and all that, I don't want to see it exactly.
Speaker 2: It was referenced the way an Origin game was.
Speaker 5: So that was good.
Speaker 2: I thought he got it right I thought, he's that
Speaker 2: was good. I could see him. I could see him.
Speaker 2: It was it was easy for him to do a
Speaker 2: sym being with two minutes to go. Yeah, him trying
Speaker 2: to release the ruck because he hadn't had the first
Speaker 2: thirty minutes they spom had the broncoze just he say.
Speaker 3: He also picked up on Harry Grant's trip, which I
Speaker 3: did see. He probably called it back two tackles later.
Speaker 2: It was a call have you seen it? It was? Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was. It was soft trip. It was it was soft.
Speaker 2: But he got wrong footed. For this guy hates Melbourne
Speaker 2: with a passion. There was a trip. It was a trip.
Speaker 2: Was it was it was it was making. It was wrong,
Speaker 2: it was going. It was wrong foot it. It was
Speaker 2: wrong for it. It was it wasn't like a sticky
Speaker 2: It wasn't. He was just wrong. That's what I thought.
Speaker 2: I saw. It was teeky.
Speaker 3: I'm more happy to see that Harry Grint's two year
Speaker 3: reign as captain is back to back.
Speaker 2: Atkinson went well. Atkinson went well. Atkinson was good. Adam
Speaker 2: j was good in the four years ago, but then
Speaker 2: we hadn't win in the middle of that. So please
Speaker 2: anyone next year.
Speaker 3: You guys getting borised the next five Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: Blinda Clark is not up to it.
Speaker 1: I don't care what anyone says. Sorry, Sharp is not
Speaker 1: up to a t I don't care. I saw her again.
Speaker 1: She's not up to it. She's not up to even
Speaker 1: girl girls. The thing, this game was four years in
Speaker 1: the making. Two years ago the Broncos were smashing the Riostlers.
Speaker 1: Two years ago, Rusters beat the Broncos, and then when
Speaker 1: they walked away, they said, we learned how to win
Speaker 1: a game. Okay, since then the Broncos haven't been been
Speaker 1: the Wristlers. This game, Tea, was four years in the
Speaker 1: mat making. And what did we see? What did that was?
Speaker 1: It was equal to the men's game. It was equal
Speaker 1: to the men's game the girls.
Speaker 5: Because I was watching it with the boys, Prior and Meg,
Speaker 5: and they were like, oh, because obviously I watch every
Speaker 5: girls game and the girls. I said to them, they
Speaker 5: just take slower the start.
Speaker 2: It's it's a different thing, you know.
Speaker 5: Twenty minutes or so. But I didn't. I wasn't worried
Speaker 5: about the girls, the Broncos girls either, because I watched
Speaker 5: the Roosters the previous week against the Knights, and they
Speaker 5: were just and what happened to Tiana? How come she
Speaker 5: wasn't playing NAVIDI wasn't playing for the Roosters.
Speaker 2: The winger. I think she got injured in the warm up.
Speaker 2: Yeah she done, yeah, yeah, she done in the warm up.
Speaker 2: And they said I said that. Yeah.
Speaker 1: You remember they said that they had yeah, yeah, you
Speaker 1: remember they said they had a rookie, a rookie, yeah
Speaker 1: had I said they had a rookie on the bench
Speaker 1: because of her. It was in the warm up she
Speaker 1: had done.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But besides that new Funger was was was brilliant, all
Speaker 1: of them, you know what. Kelly was quiet and she
Speaker 1: got injured as well. She she played on. She had
Speaker 1: a PCO and she kept on playing on. I just
Speaker 1: I just the game was to and fro. I loved it.
Speaker 1: I loved it.
Speaker 2: It was so physical. How physical was it?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Well the boys are watching it too, and meg
Speaker 5: Kis makes hers like my length, and we were just
Speaker 5: we always sit there and go because it hurts to
Speaker 5: get your hair.
Speaker 2: They pulled her all the time.
Speaker 5: We were saying, I'm like, we never ponytail whipping around.
Speaker 5: It probably haven't end up bun with like a.
Speaker 1: Shell and you know what Nicole missed. Uh, Nicole missed
Speaker 1: a genuine braw a genuine punch, genuine.
Speaker 2: At the end.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know what George happen there? Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 6: It just got to be funny. But you mentioned to
Speaker 6: make her Upton right before. She looks like the type
Speaker 6: of person who give her a tennis racket and she'll
Speaker 6: kill tennis.
Speaker 2: Give her a cricket, balls or bowl. She just looks
Speaker 2: like she's just a natural at anything. She just looks
Speaker 2: so much better than everyone else. She's a class above.
Speaker 2: The way she kicks, the runs, everything she does, it
Speaker 2: just looks so natural and just just a step above.
Speaker 2: I thought she didn't play well. It was one of
Speaker 2: her quiet game, but she still looks good when when
Speaker 2: she doesn't play well.
Speaker 1: And next year she's going to get balls from from
Speaker 1: what's her name?
Speaker 2: What's the Newcastle for half back?
Speaker 5: I was saying this to the guys because they're like
Speaker 5: best friends.
Speaker 2: Or something, your best friends.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, because we were talking about not long ago.
Speaker 5: I can't remember. I was trying to remember it the
Speaker 5: other day. It'll come to me. But she to Upton
Speaker 5: is like the Walsh.
Speaker 1: Yes, what she's like, but the difference is that she's
Speaker 1: always like that.
Speaker 2: She's so grateful, she's.
Speaker 1: So good, and you know what, even even the sener
Speaker 1: whatever got blanket from all of them.
Speaker 2: What's the senner's name? Her funer or Julia Robertson.
Speaker 1: Robertson Roberson, How good is how good is Robo?
Speaker 5: She's brilliant, all of them, just in.
Speaker 2: The funger the try it wasn't a try, but anyway
Speaker 2: it doesn't don't they video referees? Ye, well she went
Speaker 2: with whatever in the sharp said, well, they because the
Speaker 2: head was in the way, because obscured because of the video.
Speaker 2: The board hit the ground doesn't matter. I love it.
Speaker 2: It's cool. I was going for Broncos.
Speaker 5: Called non conclusive. They looked at because there was too
Speaker 5: many girls around them, and then old Lover's hands were
Speaker 5: underneath as well. But like George said, Broncos better the minutes.
Speaker 2: I'm doun.
Speaker 6: I think if they didn't score that try, they would
Speaker 6: have scored anyway, regardless of I just looked like the
Speaker 6: storm was coming and they just couldn't get through it.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean. I really wanted to watch
Speaker 2: that game. I just missed it.
Speaker 1: Just next time, I've got I've got it on table watch.
Speaker 1: It I loved it. It was you know what, if
Speaker 1: you watched any game, any game in the last four
Speaker 1: years of women's that was the one.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: It was so good. It was so good.
Speaker 5: Every time the Broncos loser try or try some allow
Speaker 5: this is George. They score within eight minutes, eight ten
Speaker 5: minutes after.
Speaker 2: Because of America. Probably. Yeah, she's good.
Speaker 1: And I said, when when Jesse goes there, when Southwell
Speaker 1: goes there, it's they're going to be so dangerous because
Speaker 1: do you expect I love the captain and the five eight.
Speaker 1: I forget her name is the the old woman that
Speaker 1: she calls herself.
Speaker 2: But but.
Speaker 1: Captain brigging sure, brigging Sure, I love I love breaking Sure,
Speaker 1: but she's she's now Jesse.
Speaker 5: South Yeah, it would be last year this year Briging Sure.
Speaker 2: Well, Jesse, if Jesse comes in more than did you
Speaker 2: see that head not? Yes, both of.
Speaker 5: Them two roosters play hit each other. I was out
Speaker 5: here and the other ones.
Speaker 2: Kept playing.
Speaker 1: They kept women's going strange. They hit hard. But oh
Speaker 1: yeah Broughton. Broughton's going back to Warriors. So that's why
Speaker 1: they got Jesse. Yeah, Jesse, we'll go straight to seven
Speaker 1: at the.
Speaker 5: Very end, because I think it's the chick with the
Speaker 5: head gears. She kept like being probably annoyed that they
Speaker 5: were going to lose the roosters, so it was really weird.
Speaker 5: They run on the field, celebrated, then she got into
Speaker 5: a fight. There was a massive punch on. Then two
Speaker 5: minutes later they were all, oh, yeah, yeah, sounds good
Speaker 5: old stuff.
Speaker 2: It was just good. It was just good. The crowd
Speaker 2: erupted when fund the score. The crowd absolutely erupted.
Speaker 5: To you, it's brilliant. I would have thought Upton would
Speaker 5: have gotten that metal, but obviously she got it.
Speaker 2: She was brilliant.
Speaker 1: You know what, watching watching Upton live, every time she
Speaker 1: gets the ball, the whole crowd and with no one
Speaker 1: who knows how many people know the crowd.
Speaker 3: Yeahs, she really stuck it up them, really stunt that album.
Speaker 2: It was sensational. Anyway, let's let's move on. What do
Speaker 2: you guys want to move on to next?
Speaker 3: Do you want to do a Team of the Year
Speaker 3: or do you want to do the danly qh Awards
Speaker 3: of the Year.
Speaker 6: Can I just quickly talk about Super League for a second. Yeah,
Speaker 6: because that was good. There was two good games on
Speaker 6: the weekend. It'll be quick, it'll be quick good, so
Speaker 6: we can worry his eighteen. The Lee Leopards as in
Speaker 6: the world six, so we can Warriors go to the
Speaker 6: next to the Grand Final.
Speaker 2: Can I just say about that the school is very deceiving.
Speaker 6: Yeah it was fourteen six nil, yeah, six halftime lead
Speaker 6: and they scored right in the end and they to
Speaker 6: make it.
Speaker 1: Wigham is the only team who play very NR el
Speaker 1: ish and even even the Leopards Lee leparts they still
Speaker 1: play Super League way, so they're very systematic and very methodical.
Speaker 1: So that's probably the memories and they won because Lee is
Speaker 1: very good. But I think the owner he's had enough.
Speaker 1: He's looking for trophies, okay, And I saw him on
Speaker 1: on media there that is he wants to put a
Speaker 1: line in the sand and he's he wants cadle water.
Speaker 2: He just wants to win. He wants civil wear enough
Speaker 2: and enough enough. He said, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 6: And then we've got Hulkingston Rovers twenty Saint Helen's our
Speaker 6: team tenure.
Speaker 2: They lost.
Speaker 6: They got twelve points. So whole kre going the Grand
Speaker 6: formal like against Warriors. Wigan Warriors one verse two. Who
Speaker 6: do you think is going to win?
Speaker 2: Just quickly?
Speaker 1: All year, Whole KR have been the team. They even
Speaker 1: look like the team. But I'm going to do the
Speaker 1: same thing and I'm going to get egg in my
Speaker 1: face because I've got egg in my face on on Sunday.
Speaker 1: I believe System beats Brilliants. Okay, I still believe that's so.
Speaker 2: I'm Wigan. I'm going just quickly mate. So whole KR,
Speaker 2: whole f C.
Speaker 6: You've got Rapana cat cast Adam Caesar John from the
Speaker 6: Australian Contingent.
Speaker 2: That's FC. Oh sorry, the wrong one, the wrong yeah,
Speaker 2: the wrong whole k Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah sorry. Where
Speaker 2: are they? I've never got him here?
Speaker 6: Oh yeah sorry, They've got Peter Hicky So so, says Sue,
Speaker 6: Jared Worry, hargraveses Martin Oliver Gilder hard Graves.
Speaker 2: He's spend, spend, spend. He hasn't played half the year.
Speaker 2: That's right. Keep on hitting people in the head, team
Speaker 2: people on the head.
Speaker 6: And the Wigan Warriors got j Field, Adam Kean Bevan French,
Speaker 6: Luke Thompson and.
Speaker 2: It's funny the super League.
Speaker 1: The super League supporter in the Grand Final said to
Speaker 1: me that the Bevan French because he's he's the best
Speaker 1: player there in England, he's the best player in the world.
Speaker 1: And west of picking him in the Australian team because
Speaker 1: you know how we got it wrong. We won't pick
Speaker 1: a super League player. Is Bevan French a spot in
Speaker 1: in England? He goes, yeah, I go, can you imagine
Speaker 1: what what I'll do to him here? I'll turn him
Speaker 1: inside out outside in?
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: He's a spotted. He's a spot. If not the other
Speaker 1: teams called a try it's through him. Yeah, okay, he
Speaker 1: missus tackle still, but it doesn't matter. It scores four.
Speaker 1: He scores for him by himself, does he does?
Speaker 2: But I said, I said to him, if he's a
Speaker 2: spot in simple, can you imagine what the forwards would
Speaker 2: do to him? He can imagine the half backs that
Speaker 2: will turn him inside out outside in? I said, oh yeah, yeah, maybe.
Speaker 2: And how how are you going to watching the how
Speaker 2: the how is going to control rees? Exactly? No way?
Speaker 2: And guess what it's on.
Speaker 1: You know that the Broncos are going to play the
Speaker 1: Club Championship World Club Championship.
Speaker 2: Yes, I know that's good. He's called it, which is great.
Speaker 1: They're going to go They're going to go to what
Speaker 1: depends I think, no, no, how HOWK wants to do it?
Speaker 1: Ellen Raid wherever they play, but if it's Wigan, they'll
Speaker 1: come here. They said, okay, well I can't wait. I
Speaker 1: can't that's good, that's back. It's a shame that they
Speaker 1: stopped at us. I want to see them controlling res
Speaker 1: I can't wait.
Speaker 6: Yeah, awesome, all right, And we were the Warriors. They
Speaker 6: beat the Billy Bears, so the state champions.
Speaker 2: It's a little bit, it's a little bit unfair.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, one's a semi first grade basically.
Speaker 1: The other one is a genuine reserve team, Burlei, Broncos, Feeder.
Speaker 2: Club.
Speaker 5: There might be Titans too, But I'm glad Berie.
Speaker 2: One Pinsland team lost. Yeah you go, Yeah, it wasn't
Speaker 2: It was unfair.
Speaker 1: And and.
Speaker 2: The best half back in the world. Yeah, did you
Speaker 2: see him? Which one? The absolutely?
Speaker 5: What's happening with him next year?
Speaker 2: He's got?
Speaker 1: Is he saying there? I don't know, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I don't know. But he's he's a first grader. He's
Speaker 1: a first grader. He's too good for reserve grade.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I feel like they Yeah, it was probably unfair,
Speaker 9: but although ballie, do you have a fair bit of
Speaker 9: like they get players that pop in and out that
Speaker 9: years ago though, But yeah, I was happy that they
Speaker 9: because Warriors.
Speaker 5: We're doing so well generally at the beginning of the year.
Speaker 1: It's nice for I think they only lost two games
Speaker 1: or three in the compl in this year. Yeah, three, Yeah,
Speaker 1: so that was the best team in reserve grade by fire.
Speaker 5: Apparently Jared Barrio Hargras is allowed to play.
Speaker 2: How do you get away with that one? You got off?
Speaker 2: Your appealed overturned? It looked pretty hardly. He looked pretty
Speaker 2: hard to me, and he's it looked pretty high to me.
Speaker 1: Anyway, good on good he can get it. You can
Speaker 1: get sent off in the Grand Final. I hope it
Speaker 1: his last year because he's not gonna. He's not gonna.
Speaker 1: You can't maintain a year anyways.
Speaker 2: On board, let's go, let's get back.
Speaker 3: Everyone's back from their toilet break. Where do you guys
Speaker 3: want to go next? Tidy years? Are we going to go?
Speaker 2: One position? Like around the table? All right? Gay George?

Speaker 1: line through it, and I'm going to I'm going to

Speaker 6: have easily given it to Britain. The Kora from the
Speaker 6: Coronla and I liked them. I thought it was his name,
Speaker 6: didn't Lucas started awesome, But I also liked crime and Angus.

Speaker 5: Choosing people from your team. Huh that you're not choosing
Speaker 5: people from your own team?
Speaker 2: Didn't win them? He did? I had Moses.
Speaker 6: Who from Saint George would you pick? Honestly, there's not
Speaker 6: one player that should have been there nothing.
Speaker 2: I think. I think you're half back made some Australian squad.
Speaker 2: That happened. Alright, who's the last one? We got the
Speaker 2: Daily Quick Hands Awards. The Daily Quick was that my
Speaker 2: Norge team as well? That was my Noise team.
Speaker 6: The only difference he had was he had to disco
Speaker 6: Crichton headed the whole Rooster's team.
Speaker 2: Like t like Tenure. Let's go around the grounds on
Speaker 2: this one like we did.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 3: So the first award is the Academy Award for the
Speaker 3: best on field performance in brackets, dive or Simulation, Best
Speaker 3: Die George.
Speaker 2: You are okay?
Speaker 1: So look this this person had a lot of from
Speaker 1: round one he was he was out there trying to
Speaker 1: get this award. But the day, the performance he gave
Speaker 1: when Nathan kicked the field gold and he ran into
Speaker 1: Lioda was one of the best performance scene since I
Speaker 1: don't know, maybe Jack Nicholson in once whatever the cookers
Speaker 1: in it. So for me, Harry Grant, top of the
Speaker 1: just give him the trophy. Now, just give him the
Speaker 1: trophy that was gold.
Speaker 2: But what absolutely, Harry Grant, obviously none of you watched
Speaker 2: paramount of play the Dolphins. I've got Herbie farm with.
Speaker 2: What do you do?
Speaker 3: He got shot by a sniper. Every forgot about that.
Speaker 3: Everyone he was. He was clinically dead for two minutes
Speaker 3: on the field before he got up and joged back
Speaker 3: in a position.
Speaker 2: Can I give flowers to everybody who gets on his
Speaker 2: knees and.
Speaker 3: Hold hold the which never existed before the attack?
Speaker 1: Could I get flowers to everybody who sort of looks
Speaker 1: sick and when they get the penalty jump up and
Speaker 1: its fine to get back to the positions, like you know,
Speaker 1: give flowers all them?
Speaker 5: Should we should have rolled super into this because.
Speaker 2: Carl felt like, first ye should have got it. Joe,
Speaker 2: who's the rookie of the You know what, I hope
Speaker 2: you're allowed to vote anyone. Yeah no, I'm just saying.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but but but but I'm not going to vote him.
Speaker 1: I saw a young man come from obscurity and become
Speaker 1: not only a regular first grader, maybe an elite. In
Speaker 1: the next couple is an elite a first grader, the
Speaker 1: future Greek mortal is a LONGI the future, Sorry, it's
Speaker 1: a future cypriator.
Speaker 2: Model, younger, lonely and you know what, I know what
Speaker 2: you're saying. Who you're saying? What's the other half is
Speaker 2: to joking?
Speaker 1: His tongue syprio, his mom's his father's tonger than his
Speaker 1: mom either.
Speaker 5: Jie Gray or Ashton Ward.
Speaker 2: Not a rookie.
Speaker 6: Sorry, I was tough on for me. I had Markey
Speaker 6: Mark and I had Leka had a sea from worries.
Speaker 6: I thought it was brilliant. He was so good. Well
Speaker 6: I got it, Lika got it, but yeah, Marky Mark
Speaker 6: should have too because.
Speaker 2: He was outstanding. I'm biased a young no good Man,
Speaker 2: good Man, you know what.
Speaker 1: I thought of giving it to Markey Mark and I
Speaker 1: know it's his first year in rugby league, but he's a.
Speaker 2: Duly international now, yeah, I mean he's not rookie. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I know he's Then I'll give it to who's your coach?
Speaker 2: George very good.
Speaker 1: I'm torn between a couple of lovers. I mean, everybody's
Speaker 1: going to say Ricky and Ricky got it and and
Speaker 1: I say, yes, he took the team which we all
Speaker 1: thought were going to be in the bottom, and he's
Speaker 1: took him to one of the premiers. But can you
Speaker 1: can you deny what Ivan did during the year?
Speaker 2: Absolutely? And can you deny what Madge did by the
Speaker 2: end of it?
Speaker 5: Going to say, I'm not saying Ricky.
Speaker 1: Ricky and and I imagine because because what made how
Speaker 1: much started to how he finished with the team is
Speaker 1: two different teams and two different approaches of coaching. So
Speaker 1: either either I'm torn, I don't know. I'll give them
Speaker 1: all of them, you know, I mean, if I have
Speaker 1: to pick one, I'll pick Ricky like everybody else.
Speaker 5: But I actually went Madge and then my second one
Speaker 5: was Christian Wolf.
Speaker 2: Christian Wolf, yes, actually, but yeah, you won't cross that border.
Speaker 2: Will you forget.
Speaker 1: Did or do you think coming to contention that did did?
Speaker 2: Did?
Speaker 1: There's come in contention the coach of the year?
Speaker 2: Ye who you are?
Speaker 6: Ivan's up there? But I've also I want to mention Robbo.
Speaker 6: I think Robert had as this team which everyone had
Speaker 6: sn youngsters and no one picked them for finals.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, I still had superstars in his team sticky
Speaker 3: lips Ricky Stewart because because he's got a team, well,
Speaker 3: he's got a team of nobody's that we all expected
Speaker 3: to do nothing.
Speaker 2: But they did pretty well. I think so too. Who's
Speaker 2: the worst coach of you, George?
Speaker 1: Maybe one, I think mister O'Brien. Yeah, for Newcastle. He
Speaker 1: just they just didn't respond to him. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: don't Actually I don't think he's a bad coach. I
Speaker 1: really don't. But he had how many years now, four
Speaker 1: or five? Yeah, and they just didn't respond. So again,
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a bad coach, but let's say
Speaker 1: he's a bad coach.
Speaker 2: Ten worst coach to you?
Speaker 5: Sorry, George, Yeah, checkerbill coach, like you know, grab a pair,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: And we feel the way I told Ardie, I'm calling
Speaker 1: me our checkbook coach party work.
Speaker 2: Actually, can you pick a coach he picks his son ahead.
Speaker 1: Of he's international, he's an international Asia paying.
Speaker 6: I've got to agree with you guys and go oprien mate.
Speaker 3: I've got a des Yeah, he's got so much experience
Speaker 3: and a better, better squad.
Speaker 2: Can I change it to avoided this food?
Speaker 1: On the last day I was disappointed with I was
Speaker 1: so disappointed.
Speaker 2: Here's your most underrated player. Because the Times is a
Speaker 2: good team. He had a good exactly.
Speaker 1: I think I'm torn between two lovers now, Joe Gray
Speaker 1: for someone and reason super coach just put him to
Speaker 1: reserve grade for three quarters of the year. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. He was leading them. You he was
Speaker 1: leading the d M the first month, and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden he wasn't good enough to play, to play
Speaker 1: first grade.
Speaker 3: And because he was replaced by the only guy who's
Speaker 3: allowed to have a medium band all season.
Speaker 2: And I have to talk to Mitchell.
Speaker 1: I'm going to throw another another player in and use
Speaker 1: You are probably going to disagree, but I maybe I
Speaker 1: rate him too high. Will Persini, I rate this kid
Speaker 1: and I I didn't hear any talk. I hear will
Speaker 1: talk about his brother apparently in reserve grade doing doing well.
Speaker 1: I think he's going to come in and they all
Speaker 1: call Will Pensini a solid defender.
Speaker 2: I think he's more than a solid defender's good. I
Speaker 2: think he's more than a solid defender and most underrated player.
Speaker 5: The boys had to tack him to this. So I'll
Speaker 5: quickly read Cray Paisi judge start sorry to do it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, underrated? That the most underrated half a team. Uh,
Speaker 3: the most underrated player.
Speaker 6: The guy that I reckon is most underrated, and I
Speaker 6: thought he was outstanding this year but didn't get called
Speaker 6: up in the origin and stuff. He might not agree
Speaker 6: with me, but ill mate. I didn't think much of
Speaker 6: this guy, and he came out and he was one
Speaker 6: of the best front rollers.
Speaker 2: I didn't think. I didn't think much of him. I
Speaker 2: thought of him.
Speaker 1: The only reason I didn't put him down is that
Speaker 1: he was a high, high price purchase from the.
Speaker 2: But it was it wasn't. Yeah, he was a pen
Speaker 2: didn't he just go there? There is a high price.
Speaker 1: He was a high price for them to bring him
Speaker 1: over to the West. Yeah, he was high price. He
Speaker 1: wasn't high priced that East, but he was high priced
Speaker 1: when they brought him over.
Speaker 6: I just didn't expect mushroom. But I thought he let
Speaker 6: the Tiger's pack very well.
Speaker 2: He did. This one's going to spinsive heads. George. Here's
Speaker 2: your most overrated player of this season.
Speaker 1: Overrated player, you can pick it, Tommy latrell Nik your choice.
Speaker 2: And most overrated player. Yeah, one hundred percent. Yeah, he's
Speaker 2: one hundred million percent. Yeah, over, I agree, Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2: Another underrated player sext and maybe put him at the
Speaker 2: underrated George. He's the toughest player, toughest. You know what,
Speaker 2: I haven't feeled that. I don't know why I haven't
Speaker 2: feeled that one is easier. I haven't feel that.
Speaker 5: Have you got your boyfriend that you love? No, mine's
Speaker 5: big papa.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, okay, yeah. He wears big hats and the
Speaker 3: birds they ship on his lips. Alreadie, who's your toughest
Speaker 3: player of.
Speaker 2: The toughest player of the year. With his lips, he
Speaker 2: can stick him to the wall. You know, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: put my I reckon to desk teacher to say, motherfucker.
Speaker 2: Sorry Teddy.
Speaker 6: At the age of the years thirty two years old,
Speaker 6: everyone had him as busted and dumb. He was strong
Speaker 6: as I thought, he was very.
Speaker 3: My toughest player is because the fact that he's like
Speaker 3: one of the toughest players in the game, playing injured
Speaker 3: the whole second half of the year is paying half.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, with with with with more multiple injuries as well.
Speaker 2: True, I can feel this scene. Yeah, I was stinking monster.
Speaker 1: Who's the dirtiest or the grub of the Okay, So
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna I'm gonna spun me around on this
Speaker 1: one as well. He's the one who brought out some
Speaker 1: facts and you can't remember and you know what about it?
Speaker 2: Then you call him. I saw him do one base.
Speaker 1: Anything, Stephen, Stephen and and you know what, I've got
Speaker 1: special mention for Harry Grant. Harry Grant, special Corey paints,
Speaker 1: give me something, Corey paints some dirty, dirty Grant, Harry Grant.
Speaker 3: I've got, I've got, I've got a player who's who's
Speaker 3: down for I've personally enjoyed watching that read money.
Speaker 5: Nick actually tod yell out. I think you've heard you
Speaker 5: say before.
Speaker 3: He's an interesting one. With my last tenure, George. Best
Speaker 3: comeback of the either team, game or player.
Speaker 1: Okay, player, she was like it was on the sc
Speaker 1: scrap a comeback or he was on the scrapper. He
Speaker 1: came from nowhere, It wasn't there, It disappeared and came okay, okay, good,
Speaker 1: good point, good point. So I'll go then the other
Speaker 1: way he was sprung. He was sprung, Okay, go the
Speaker 1: other way. Come back as as a as a team
Speaker 1: or a game Broncos versus the Dogs versus the Raiders,
Speaker 1: versus Penri versus the Storm.
Speaker 2: Your all of them be best comeback.
Speaker 6: Yeahughn's going to be the Panthers. The start that they
Speaker 6: had at the year was terrible and no one had
Speaker 6: the finals, and they came to the finals and they
Speaker 6: nearly got to the Grand Final one week away.
Speaker 3: From which just just so much about Ivan Cleary. Yeah,
Speaker 3: to pick him up off the canvas, I've got the game.
Speaker 3: I've got Brisbane camera for me.
Speaker 2: George. Who's who's the biggest fallen player of the year? Bomb?
Speaker 2: This year? You know what?
Speaker 1: And I noticed this, this particular player made the straining team.
Speaker 2: I have no idea best. Yeah. I didn't think he
Speaker 2: had a good season at all.
Speaker 1: From a from a good season last year too, I
Speaker 1: thought quite ordinary season this year. And I know he
Speaker 1: was injured a little bit, but even when he played,
Speaker 1: he wasn't he wasn't effective and.
Speaker 5: Bomb, I didn't have one for this boys and many
Speaker 5: mean that's it.
Speaker 2: This is.
Speaker 6: I would say I expected a lot from this guy,
Speaker 6: Valentine Holmes.
Speaker 2: He did nothing. He dropped a lot, So you need
Speaker 2: to get a solid season. Fair bit of a got injured. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but he was hopeless. He was dropped a lot of ball,
Speaker 2: miss some goals, crystal goals.
Speaker 3: I looked at this one from a fiscal point of
Speaker 3: view in terms of good investments. I've got dreams now.
Speaker 3: I think one try a year for one point five
Speaker 3: million pretty good.
Speaker 2: I was waiting for a premiership to try. Who's your
Speaker 2: pain out.
Speaker 1: Of the You know what, I'm biased as well, and
Speaker 1: I don't seem as much as you blokes, but I
Speaker 1: hear enough. Uh, you know what, Buzz isn't the biggest
Speaker 1: peanut in the game.
Speaker 2: Who is? I hate Buzz? I hate you. I don't
Speaker 2: know why. I just hate the guy. He just says
Speaker 2: things that you know, Look, you.
Speaker 1: Know because he's a he's a I think columnist or
Speaker 1: a rumor among guy. He doesn't check his fact. He
Speaker 1: thinks says he does, but he's always wrong. But anyway,
Speaker 1: I'll give me and here's your pain out of the
Speaker 1: Cory paints the.
Speaker 2: Final.
Speaker 6: Of course, of course, I think the guy that made
Speaker 6: the biggest penut of himself was Gus Gould with the.
Speaker 2: Well I've never spoken to him ever.
Speaker 3: Yes, since you guys are basic. The year based off
Speaker 3: players who have said something made statements came back to
Speaker 3: buy them in. I'm going to go with you? Was
Speaker 3: he last year? We would have made the eight? He'll
Speaker 3: get away.
Speaker 1: Wait, well it's not over, not over, George, who's the
Speaker 1: bugging by the Well?
Speaker 2: I hope I can get this right? She was psy
Speaker 2: how's that? Do you give me some support?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: God, can think about this one?
Speaker 6: You go for I've got She was hockey Sky. Yeah,
Speaker 6: did they buy that? Thomas Jenkins going.
Speaker 2: Because when yeah, scrap played well throughout the whole year.
Speaker 2: I don't know why didn't make the finals with chins
Speaker 2: he played, He came on train control and they gave
Speaker 2: him one hundred and hundred and a sandwich exactly. It
Speaker 2: was hip. She was like, you still want to two
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty thousand? Could? I could?
Speaker 3: I could almost argue lam Walker for parents. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: well halfway through the year you just revived, like, oh yeah,
Speaker 3: you know what, that's a good call. That's a good call,
Speaker 3: big call, George. Team that overachieved this.
Speaker 2: Year, Okay, we're going to be a different I'm gonna
Speaker 2: say the Roosters, Yeah, overachieved.
Speaker 1: Over chie Well, everybody said that they lost eight players
Speaker 1: from last year, and everyone was talking bottom bottom four,
Speaker 1: and they have achieved.
Speaker 2: They made the Semis. It's pretty good. I'm sort of
Speaker 2: saying it's a good thing.
Speaker 5: Yeah, bro on, give me something outside of that Penrith
Speaker 5: and Eels only because it Eels did a full complete.
Speaker 3: Turnover game one forty six a half time. There's nowhere
Speaker 3: else to go as well. I think already overchieve over
Speaker 3: achieved team in the.
Speaker 2: Year no one. Yeah, I agree with George, Roosters because
Speaker 2: no one expected them to get as good as they did,
Speaker 2: so they did. Definitely for me, I've got the Faders,
Speaker 2: I mean the Raiders. The Raiders what you're saying bottom for.
Speaker 3: I'm really biased with the next one, George, what's the
Speaker 3: best game of the year?
Speaker 2: Okay, it was.
Speaker 1: It was bathing in somewhere in Scathos or Santurni or somewhere,
Speaker 1: and we were here on a cold Thursday night and
Speaker 1: we saw Bulldogs and Penrith go to go to war.
Speaker 1: And that was because of the style of game. That
Speaker 1: was one of my favorite games. Or yeah, because it
Speaker 1: was just a grind fest. Eighty minutes of a GrindFest
Speaker 1: and it was hoo blink first and guess what, Bulldogs
Speaker 1: bling first? Because they brought Calvit galan.
Speaker 2: On And this is a dumb question. Game of the year,
Speaker 2: best game.
Speaker 5: Of the year outside of the Grand of course, yeah, definitely,
Speaker 5: but also the family game of the year. When Bulldogs
Speaker 5: lost to the in round round around round four. I
Speaker 5: think whenever we.
Speaker 1: Smashed you was the first game. Yeah, yeah, we lost
Speaker 1: against you, smashed.
Speaker 2: Us in love at this.
Speaker 6: But my two, I've got two when when saintspeak Melbourne
Speaker 6: and Saint speak Broncos because I was watching the Grand.
Speaker 2: Both but I expected smashing. I'm watching that game, going, god,
Speaker 2: what am I going to see here? And they won.
Speaker 2: It was like it was exciting for me. For me,
Speaker 2: it was Easter Monday. It was Tigers. Yeah, good, great game.
Speaker 2: Smash yeah yeah, George best try of the year.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm not sure if he was here. Mike Mikey
Speaker 1: Mark against the Dogs. Yeah, you've seen it. Mikey against
Speaker 1: the Bulldogs. Decided to kick the ball twice on one foot,
Speaker 1: go outside of the field, come back in the field.
Speaker 1: The ball somehow bounced up but too far away it
Speaker 1: was going out and decides who dive grab it from
Speaker 1: the outside of the outside of the field and bring
Speaker 1: it in and score a try just for theatrics. For me,
Speaker 1: that's the try of the year. There's other good tries
Speaker 1: with fifteen hands touched with that one just is burnt
Speaker 1: in my mind, and I know, I know Nicholas one
Speaker 1: and that's that was probably my second favorite. Which one
Speaker 1: which Brod goes, which bron.
Speaker 5: Goes, raiders person when it hit the upright.
Speaker 2: Miracle of miracle, that's my second. You know.
Speaker 6: There was a special try that was scored George by
Speaker 6: the Tigers in the Grand Final. Benu March did a
Speaker 6: flick pass and it was on TV everywhere and we
Speaker 6: saw a similar try to that with the Tigers.
Speaker 2: Taylor ran and then Tailor Mane did the same thing
Speaker 2: and did a flick past the bull and he scored.
Speaker 2: It was remnant like it was just it was so
Speaker 2: similar with the game where they the bed that was
Speaker 2: it was a good try that it was a mad, mad,
Speaker 2: beautiful the oracle, emudgy miracle.
Speaker 3: Nathan Cleary kicking a match winning field goal and ten
Speaker 3: seconds later he lost.
Speaker 2: Yes, no one saw that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Higher Weeks is one of the best. We're seeing
Speaker 5: the best footed players come out at the moment.
Speaker 2: He is brilliant. How long is it until he wears
Speaker 2: the Bronco shirt? You reckon, I don't o weeks, it's
Speaker 2: just a matter of weeks.
Speaker 3: What would you who's the George, who's the coach is
Speaker 3: under the most pressure this year?
Speaker 1: I actually don't think any of the coaches are under
Speaker 1: allusional power. I think because they're all new or they're
Speaker 1: all said, but I don't know ten for for you
Speaker 1: the frame.
Speaker 2: Benji, But I think for me, I know how much
Speaker 2: love you got for.
Speaker 5: I think Wholebrook just generally is his first job. If
Speaker 5: you're saying the most under pressure, under pressure, I've actually
Speaker 5: been Hannah also.
Speaker 2: Years when you have the least pressure the first two.
Speaker 5: Years, Benji Marshall and talking about it doesn't matter about
Speaker 5: your first year you're under pressure anyway.
Speaker 2: I just think your first year you get a pass.
Speaker 3: Yeah, first year, especially especially Josh Hanes his first year
Speaker 3: as a coach.
Speaker 5: Actually I did think serroudo because there's a lot of craziness.
Speaker 3: That's happened years he's signed for thirty one.
Speaker 2: He's not guss best mate.
Speaker 6: The year it should be flanning in because but I'm
Speaker 6: going to put one out there that has never happened
Speaker 6: before in our lives.
Speaker 2: But I've got Wayne Bennett.
Speaker 6: If Sous have another ship year like they did this
Speaker 6: year it was ship and that they're not getting better.
Speaker 6: So I don't know have souse are going to cope
Speaker 6: with another fifteenth place or sixteenth place again, that's a
Speaker 6: third year in Roman or something, and he had a
Speaker 6: few injuries this year, but still he must be under some.
Speaker 2: Pressure for me.
Speaker 3: For me, he might as well keep his golf clubs
Speaker 3: in the back seat because this time this year Benjamin better. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I was right, Yeah, I said, George last one. Okay,
Speaker 3: worst by the season, worst by you know what, South Sydney.
Speaker 3: Everyone's seaking the same thing, so yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: South Sydney went searching for a half back because they
Speaker 1: got rid of a guy called Reynolds and they're still
Speaker 1: trying to find Monday. They try to agree him all
Speaker 1: and he didn't. He didn't work out either, So they
Speaker 1: went to the north of England and they found this
Speaker 1: reserve grade which apparently was playing first grade. Because I've
Speaker 1: been watching him and I didn't raid him.
Speaker 2: Louis God, he was so good. I think you played
Speaker 2: to first guy games.
Speaker 1: And on top of that, they're paying the bus at
Speaker 1: seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: They've just released him, right, they just released t worst
Speaker 2: by the season. Oh am I doing.
Speaker 6: Of course's got to be there, Gavin's got to be there.
Speaker 2: But I'm going to put Brandon Smith. What would you
Speaker 2: buy him? Then? Two weeks is in court? Really didn't
Speaker 2: know that was gonna happen. I've got it. I'll got wrong.
Speaker 3: Member, it's a photo finish between Brandon Smith and Lachlan Gavin.
Speaker 2: So I'm going with Jerome Laway. That's all I got, guys,
Speaker 2: that's all we got. We got.
Speaker 3: We have a big quick chat about three sixty. Let's
Speaker 3: talk about three sixty. Yeah, so apparently they've got a
Speaker 3: few players line up. So what I what I read
Speaker 3: today was paid ass had a core scheduled today with
Speaker 3: his manager and they've put it, pushed it back. They've
Speaker 3: pushed the meeting because his manager is finding out the
Speaker 3: implications of breaking the contract. And yeah, so ten million
Speaker 3: dollars for two years because they're talking about yeah, because
Speaker 3: they're talking about they're talking about in tax three countries
Speaker 3: like you buy where you get paid net pre tax dollars.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't care.
Speaker 1: They've got money Lomax one point five million US.
Speaker 2: Is he going?
Speaker 3: Apparently, Jason Ross said he approached me six weeks ago.
Speaker 3: I said, look, I'm seriously considering and ready letting you can.
Speaker 1: I put all this in content. All the rugby codes
Speaker 1: in the world bricks, because they're all jumping ship from
Speaker 1: the English camp, from the French comp, the Argentina comp.
Speaker 1: They're ripping the Italian team apart.
Speaker 2: Who's who's that?
Speaker 3: They're a good good they're playing friends the correct that
Speaker 3: the only ones are not approaching.
Speaker 2: Rubbish rubbish.
Speaker 3: So George, let me ask you this. You say, George, wife,
Speaker 3: every won the World Cup. Every time they get a corner, they.
Speaker 2: We won the euro the haven't haspur one some couple
Speaker 2: couple of years the conference? Have they? No one more?
Speaker 2: That's it?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I lost the last two year finals. Have to
Speaker 3: remind you the first one was against Anyway at Wembley,
Speaker 3: So any better than that.
Speaker 2: Moving right from so, it's real, it's joy. Graying House
Speaker 2: is one of the pain half. It's I don't know
Speaker 2: if the numbers are real that were that we're hearing about,
Speaker 2: but it's scary. So the question is it going to
Speaker 2: go ahead? Take that away? It's going. It's good. It's
Speaker 2: going to happen. As much as I want to lose Lomax.
Speaker 3: What they're saying because I don't, is that power going
Speaker 3: off the peasant that would actually work out perfectly. I
Speaker 3: think that's because Papa is a fullback, so he could
Speaker 3: replace Lams on the wing. Yeah, it's a natural fear,
Speaker 3: and then him and Young he could switch places.
Speaker 2: He's put Max for Cener and he's not working cutting
Speaker 2: out so Flannagan. But he's having great year and he's
Speaker 2: been shipped. Yes, he's ging great on the wing, but
Speaker 2: he wanted and what he did he didn't.
Speaker 3: Last when you're losing forty six a halftime in Game
Speaker 3: one Georgia. At the end of the day, if you're
Speaker 3: a good winger, you're a good winger.
Speaker 2: Let's see it. Don't fight. It's good.
Speaker 1: It's it's a real it's a real thing. And the
Speaker 1: issue for rugby league is this. If you put three
Speaker 1: six three sixty plus plus w A or the Perth
Speaker 1: Bears plus P and G in a couple of years,
Speaker 1: what we better start developing kids left, right and center
Speaker 1: because there will be holes.
Speaker 2: What about Orlando's threat if they do take it they're
Speaker 2: not allowed back in the NL. I agree with. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but that's cool because what can restriction? You know what?
Speaker 1: That's okay because I'm looking away because I can't make
Speaker 1: ten million dollars at the Wallabies like pain?
Speaker 5: Can they just pay them more? What do they think
Speaker 5: is going to happen? That for Landers, they're just going
Speaker 5: to hang around for his pleasure? Do you know what
Speaker 5: I mean? Like every other look at you guys know
Speaker 5: more than George and I are soccer, Like, oh my god,
Speaker 5: even the guys. Corey was saying, like when he played
Speaker 5: professional too, but Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, they earned so much money,
Speaker 5: better teams, better like fields, better set up, better everything And.
Speaker 2: What are we talking at? That's socer compared like what
Speaker 2: did what did they.
Speaker 5: Think was going to happen? I didn't know that it's
Speaker 5: that organized though, like in terms of actually it's.
Speaker 3: Not yet, it's it's not yet. Yeah, but these things
Speaker 3: can come together pretty quick.
Speaker 2: A couple of layers, especially if it's like a rich
Speaker 2: they'll chat GBT their way into the framework, the and.
Speaker 1: On that talking about money and talking money to players.
Speaker 1: If we compare ourselves to AFL, because we always do
Speaker 1: they earn more money than than our top players compared
Speaker 1: to their top players. They're pretty close to two million
Speaker 1: now compared to our top players, which are on a million.
Speaker 1: So if the Landis is holding back, I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't know the idea of him getting bigger rights, television
Speaker 1: rights is to give more to the players. That's that's
Speaker 1: what I understand. That's his articles. When I read his
Speaker 1: article it comes out Fortnight Liberts. Of course it's a
Speaker 1: propaganda piece, but still regardless.
Speaker 2: So I don't know. But three six is real.
Speaker 3: Can I do a quick shout out? You want a
Speaker 3: shout out? A couple of months ago him, I good mate, Quinnie,
Speaker 3: devoted listener of the Quick Hands podcast. I won't mention
Speaker 3: the organization that he works for because it's very well known,
Speaker 3: but I think everyone there knows that he's the backbone
Speaker 3: over there in that organization, the store ward that keeps
Speaker 3: everything together, an inspirational leader who paves the way for
Speaker 3: all of his peers. They're very lucky to have him, George. Yeah,
Speaker 3: they should be dropping rose pedals in front of him
Speaker 3: when he walks into the office. Only he will know
Speaker 3: what this means.
Speaker 2: Quinny, you got to know when to hold them, know
Speaker 2: when to fold them on your quinny. So you soon
Speaker 2: Buddy talking talking about that and I haven't got him here.
Speaker 1: We've had some correspondence and one of Tanya's Tanya's fans,
Speaker 1: pain As asked us individually on what do we think
Speaker 1: the biggest change is the fact that the game, as
Speaker 1: a general sense in the last nur NRL.
Speaker 2: Era, which game, so which rule or has charge? Che off?
Speaker 2: Get rid of it?
Speaker 3: Get rid of it if if you if you hit
Speaker 3: someone in the head, you get sent off if you
Speaker 3: don't show the charges a great hit.
Speaker 2: So you're saying bring it back, yes, okay, okay, should.
Speaker 3: Never have been And the punch and the punch that's
Speaker 3: because there's Buddy Queenslanders when Paul Gullen bashing eight miles
Speaker 3: without oversized air balloon head. They've been punching ever since
Speaker 3: that game.
Speaker 1: Okay, I thought it more like the ten the ten
Speaker 1: meter rule or the right or the six against six agains.
Speaker 2: I thought maybe that's did you say the ten meter rule,
Speaker 2: Yeah that was before ninety two. Yeah, six agains, I
Speaker 2: reckon six again, Yeah, that's that's that. It's not consistent. No,
Speaker 2: But and the thing it makes it so lopsided. It does.
Speaker 2: It makes it so loided. Then you're playing into Melbourne's hands.
Speaker 6: It's manipulating the rule the results because you just fatigua
Speaker 6: team six six against it against.
Speaker 2: It's a joke. I hate six again. I hate it.
Speaker 2: It shifts momentum too too heavy.
Speaker 6: It's not that it's not consistent, like you'll see them
Speaker 6: penalized for that and then you'll see five minutes lad
Speaker 6: of the same thing and it's play on.
Speaker 1: It's just all the other way the Melbourne does they
Speaker 1: know if they keep on doing it, the referee can't.
Speaker 2: Blow the pair of the whistle, so they just keep
Speaker 2: on doing exactly So it's just not police properly. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't understand.
Speaker 3: If I was a cache, I pulled my team together
Speaker 3: and say, okay, boys, from the kickoff, whoever catches the ball,
Speaker 3: I want you to all to go in and start
Speaker 3: from punches. You can't see him in the whole team
Speaker 3: in the first half of what are they going to
Speaker 3: do it comes? I'm just saying, yeah, you're too You've
Speaker 3: got any thoughts on that? Yeah?
Speaker 5: I think they just need to just be consistent, you
Speaker 5: know what I mean. I also think the refs because
Speaker 5: was it this year? They changed it? The refs don't
Speaker 5: have to answer.
Speaker 2: To anything they did. Maybe remove the bunker, Yeah.
Speaker 5: My god, that will never happen.
Speaker 6: The bunker should only get involved if it's one hundred
Speaker 6: percent accurate.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Not this fifty to fifty
Speaker 2: ship where they overturn the referee for fifty to fifty.
Speaker 2: I hate that. Three minutes after it happened, exactly, George
Speaker 2: in soccer.
Speaker 5: I think we were explaining this last time you showed, Georgie.
Speaker 5: I think Artie was weare. The ref goes to the camera,
Speaker 5: it happened.
Speaker 3: George loved it, runs to the sovine, looks at the
Speaker 3: replay himself, makes a call within thirty seconds.
Speaker 2: Don't love them.
Speaker 6: Ref has all the power. The refere in the middle
Speaker 6: should have all the power. These guys at the top,
Speaker 6: they're just his tools.
Speaker 2: I need some I need some visual on this, Okay,
Speaker 2: I love it. It's like, what is this ridiculous?
Speaker 5: Also, if we have so much money, I feel like
Speaker 5: we could invest in things like that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, bring lunch in the shoulder, charge exactly. Love The
Speaker 6: only time the bunk is it's clear and obvious, like
Speaker 6: if it's one hundred.
Speaker 1: Thousand Williams show the challenge the best of saying, got
Speaker 1: them right, but you've got them right, got them right.
Speaker 2: It's a skill. It's a school to get them right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, charging a lot of the times it doesn't hurt
Speaker 6: the play. Okay, probably five percent of the tackles hurt,
Speaker 6: but the other ninety five don't.
Speaker 3: If you do it properly, it doesn't anything if you
Speaker 3: make contact with it exactly. Yeah, has any different wrap
Speaker 3: the arms that wrap the arms croc of ships.
Speaker 1: It's too technical, but they're trying to protect something which
Speaker 1: they shouldn't be trying to protect. But yeah, we're good
Speaker 1: because we don't want a lawsuit.
Speaker 2: That's that was a.
Speaker 1: Genuine question to you know, that's a genuine good question
Speaker 1: to you. That's a that's a fan of yours. His names,
Speaker 1: we've had him before. There's a few other ones.
Speaker 3: His parents must have been ripped with the last name,
Speaker 3: like half naming him pain did have right?
Speaker 5: She does half Filipino and he's in the in jail
Speaker 5: the Philippines on drug trafficking charges.
Speaker 2: If his middle name was in his parents must have
Speaker 2: been ripped.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: That's all I've got peeps. That's all we got.
Speaker 3: That's all we got that season twenty five hands maiden
