0:16
now king that's good cheaper than your man's Choo Choo and.
0:19
Tomorrow it's very much you too much the host from the coast.
0:24
Sharpen the auntie side. Champagne Papi junior, yo,
0:30
welcome back to the Talking Share podcast here with you.
0:32
Saw Machu bringing you the latest in sports, pop culture
0:35
and lots big questions on today's episode.
0:37
Yeah bro so First off I got a little video and I show you so
0:40
you get your opinion on it. Okay be might see I have a
0:43
different take on it. We'll see and then I think
0:46
following that we're going to roll into the best parent kid
0:50
combos in the world. There's got to be a few ways.
0:52
There's a few, there's a few that we've kind of looked into.
0:54
And honestly that's, this is just what we've seen.
0:57
It'll be interesting to see what obviously our our listeners
0:59
think about that as well. And the last thing we're going
1:02
to be talking about is we're supporters, maybe a touchy
1:07
subject, I don't know. Yeah, it's, it's topical at the
1:09
moment for me especially. So we'll get into a break.
1:13
We'll chatter. Yeah, it's bro.
1:16
So my update, I'm just going to jump into it.
1:18
It's a it's a video I saw on YouTube actually.
1:23
So it's the man best team in the NFL, Saquon Barkley.
1:30
And he's having a conversation with his coach about pretty much
1:34
For background, Saquon Barkley had the best rushing season last
1:39
year for running backs and almost the best ever.
1:45
He got to the last game and Eagles were kind of smashing
1:49
everybody. And the coach got to a point
1:51
where he sat down his starters. And obviously that means that
1:55
it's affecting your stats. And Saquon had the choice to
1:58
either go in and beat his record of his highest stat of all time
2:04
or sit out and let his younger disciples in there to finish the
2:10
game. So this is the conversation in
2:12
here. You're 13 yards away from your
2:13
career high. I would love for you to get
2:15
that, but that's up to you. I just don't want, like, I'm
2:19
going to take out all the starters.
2:21
If they don't score, you're good.
2:21
Let them eat. You sure?
2:23
Yeah. Good.
2:25
I promise. I'll listen to me.
2:27
I want you to do it if you want to do it.
2:28
So I'd rather see the young boys eat.
2:31
You're 13 yards, boy. You know what the young boys the
2:35
you want that record man? Get out of here bro.
2:38
I know this is a little while ago now but I swear if there is
2:42
a person that wants that he knows these cameras on him and
2:44
he just wants to sound cool. But he is miked up as well.
2:47
I didn't think about that. I'm just saying that's where
2:49
he's coming from. He wants to sound cool and I'm
2:52
like, bro, don't bro go get you a record, bro.
2:54
That's that's like one carry for you.
2:56
Yeah, 13 yards is nothing and like, bro, I didn't think about
3:00
that. He's miked up.
3:01
So the coach coming up to him and saying, yo, you're about to
3:06
break your record, but like these boys haven't played all
3:08
season, but up to you. Like are you sweet or do you
3:10
want to do you want to drop back and be a hog?
3:12
And imagine if he got the clip of him saying no.
3:16
If they're I'll stuff them. I'm going in like I wanna like.
3:19
That would seem so selfish. OK, you flipped me 180.
3:22
That is, that's BS. I, I, I'm.
3:26
That's the way I'm coming from bro.
3:27
Yeah, you know, the mics and all that.
3:29
You know what the NFL is like, bro, every year, you know, you
3:31
see people miked up and then they do those, you know, videos
3:34
and sort of reactions sound, you know, in game commentary or
3:37
whatever. And yeah bro, I'll just like.
3:40
And it's not under teens bro. It's not participation.
3:42
It's like bro, it's the professional.
3:44
Sorry I'm better than you. That's why I play like we.
3:47
It doesn't just everyone gets a run.
3:49
Do you think he maybe said it because he reckons he'll do it,
3:51
he'll break it, he will break it eventually.
3:55
Bro I reckon that I don't think he'll have a better season than
3:57
last year. Really.
3:58
No, no way bro. Last year they were killing.
4:01
He's a freak. So it's Anbar.
4:03
You have to go all season uninjured as well.
4:06
Like, that's pretty crazy. He's he's pretty much never done
4:08
that as well. Yeah.
4:10
And the season. 'S just got him longer too.
4:11
Yeah. I mean, as of last year, yeah.
4:14
They increased the amount of games.
4:15
Yeah. You know, So, yeah, maybe you're
4:17
right. Maybe you're right.
4:17
He's still done one of the freakish runs.
4:19
I've never seen anyone just think I'm gonna jump backwards
4:22
and jump over someone. He hurtled someone backwards.
4:24
Bo. Crazy that they hurdle people in
4:26
the NFLA, like would you even the league field, would you ever
4:29
think to hurdle someone? I've tried to, no.
4:31
Yeah, actually I've tried to because they don't go.
4:35
Oh, it actually might work in rugby.
4:38
You know rugby when you pick and go and they pretty much just
4:39
like dive at the ground. Yeah.
4:41
They've done that. Did you see the recent Lions
4:43
Test against Wallabies? Did he jump over them?
4:45
Off a tete the Lions forward. Oh, I did see.
4:48
That and he he didn't, I wouldn't say.
4:50
He's ugly one day. Yeah, he more dived over.
4:53
Yeah, Because in rugby, bro, you know, when you're on the line,
4:55
you're just going straight down to the Yeah, you diving.
4:57
Yeah, bro. And he knew the guy was going to
4:58
do it. And he just jumped right over,
4:59
bro. And he scored.
5:00
And I was like, all right, But you know, in league you're not
5:02
allowed to do it. Do you remember when Suliasa
5:04
Vunvalu tried to do it for the Storm?
5:06
And he kicked that day that just looked far better in the day.
5:11
He just. Straight spot and.
5:13
Kicked the big brand. I was like, oh I think I
5:16
remember that. Bro.
5:16
That was crazy. It was like his intrusive
5:19
thoughts just took over and he tried to jump, babe.
5:21
Well, why did you jump? I just remember people in the
5:23
other team, even his own team was like where?
5:25
Did they come from? What did they just what are you
5:27
doing bro? Yeah, that was one of the
5:29
craziest ones I reckon I've seen they.
5:31
Yeah, but I forgot about. That going back, going back on
5:34
the Saquon thing and the coach thing, you're just trying to
5:36
make a nice interaction out of it, eh?
5:37
And I'm just like, you know, or a cool, you know, famous
5:40
interaction. I'm like, bro, it would have
5:42
been I guarantee he's he's he'll look back on that one day and
5:45
you'll regret it. Yeah, hard.
5:46
I'm I'm just saying that that's my personal opinion on it.
5:49
But anyway, my general update, it's a little bit of a hot take
5:53
too, because something that we spoke about and we're going to
5:55
get straight into this flat chat dinners that we had recently and
5:58
the night before flat chat dinners, we watched, you know,
6:01
the the good old movie Happy Gilmore 2.
6:04
And look, I have a different opinion to you according, you
6:07
know, from from what we spoke about and pretty much we we we
6:11
the flat chat, I guess question of the of the week was, you
6:14
know, what was our honest opinion on Happy Gilmore 2 and
6:16
what, what would re rate it out of 10?
6:19
You go first bro, What I mean? 4 out of 10 bro it's trash
6:22
honestly. God bro movies suck these days.
6:25
I hate all Movies Now they are so bad.
6:27
All comedies bro are terrible. Adam Sandler bro wasn't even
6:30
funny. He was like bro honestly the
6:33
best actors in the whole movie were Travis Kelce and Bad Bunny.
6:38
I've honestly they were the funniest in the whole movie.
6:40
But like, do we? Do you know what I just
6:43
realized? Like what was annoying me and
6:45
not so dry, like literally so dry when all the sons were doing
6:50
the thing with the you. Didn't like that.
6:52
I thought that was so dry. I think back on it now and like,
6:56
I just think it's so dry. And Adam Sandler, you know that
7:00
like Husky yelling voice he does.
7:03
Yeah, yeah. He's like, yeah, yeah.
7:04
Don't do that. Like shut up, Adam Sandler.
7:08
Like what it was getting to me and I don't know, I'll just I'll
7:11
just go on my little ramble. But is Adam Sandler was trying
7:16
to stay with the times and he's just being left behind like he
7:20
was trying to do. Because pretty much what
7:22
happened is they try to make a play on the live golf thing with
7:25
this new golfing golfing. What do you call it?
7:29
Competition and. The whole live golf, what was
7:32
it? What?
7:32
Was the what was the one in the movie called Maxi Maxi Yeah.
7:35
And so they just made it like an unrealistic like game where
7:42
they're well, they had to like shoot it on a rocking board like
7:48
the the put it on a rocking. Board and off the head to head
7:50
at like 505 hundred meters over the trees.
7:53
Like people were twisting like, it was like the Looney Tunes
7:56
like. That's actually a good point.
7:58
For like what are what are we doing bro?
8:00
Is this a cartoon or is this a real like, was Loki like Space
8:04
Jam? Like we was turning into a
8:06
cartoon? Happy Gilmore was just a real
8:08
person that was just doing like a buzzy shot, which was it
8:11
stayed in the realms of realistic and then it would have
8:14
moments of just like funny things.
8:16
But this one was just silly like, and it wasn't like comedy.
8:19
It was pure. It was comedy trying to be silly
8:23
and then also trying to put spin on this new sport that was just
8:28
unrealistic. And I just they, they just lost
8:31
me. I can see how you didn't like
8:32
the movie. I think for me like I have a
8:34
different opinion and that's I I enjoyed it and the reason why I
8:36
enjoyed it. 2 out of 10. Honestly bro I would 77 out of
8:41
10. That's so high.
8:42
Yeah, I'll, I'll go 7 out of 10. But This is why, OK.
8:45
And I it's it's not so much because of the acting.
8:48
It was more the people that were in the movie for me.
8:50
Like for me, it took me back to my childhood and like watching
8:54
Happy Gilmore one and what I couldn't believe is how well, or
8:58
you know what, they managed to bring back a lot of the original
9:01
actors. And that's what it is for me, I
9:03
reckon I I, I can kind of agree with you that the storyline and
9:09
you know, I guess how they went about the movie didn't really
9:12
align with what we once grew up with, you know, with Happy
9:15
Gilmore one. But for me, it was just the
9:18
original actors and also all the star celebrities that were in
9:21
it. I was like bro how did?
9:23
Like you keep saying. Both your seats.
9:24
I know he's Adamson and I know obviously there's others
9:27
involved that that help recruitment, but bro, to have
9:30
the best golfers in the movie, like the number one golfer at
9:33
the moment, yeah, like Scottish Scheffler, I was like, bro,
9:35
that's insane. Like to have someone of his
9:37
status. Yeah, his spot was good.
9:39
I mean I. Like to spot?
9:40
Yeah, because when he went to jail, that was.
9:41
Going to rest Yeah, He's a back story to that.
9:44
Yeah. You know, and then obviously,
9:46
like all the greats too, in in that one room when they're
9:49
wearing the golden jackets, I thought that was like unreal.
9:52
So for me, it was more that it was more like having people that
9:56
are actually in the game who have been part of the game, the
9:58
biggest, you know, actors. I do agree.
10:00
Travis Kelsey I thought was the funniest, bro.
10:02
He he played it really well. He played, you know, the other
10:05
person that I thought could have been Travis Kelsey in that
10:08
movie, who I'm kind of thankful they didn't go and get, is
10:11
Gronk. Oh, yeah, yeah.
10:13
Because he played, you know what I mean?
10:15
That's that character. Yeah.
10:16
You know how I'm going about. It Yeah, yeah, Like he he would
10:19
have been too over the top with Travis.
10:21
Kelsey was like he it's when you can act serious, but you know
10:28
that they're being silly. Like that's what I like when.
10:30
They when they do that, yeah, I do see me and I thought Bad
10:33
Bunny did that as well, But but also just the whole storyline.
10:36
We talked about it. So he turns bro.
10:39
Maybe I'm just like dissecting this movie when it's just a
10:41
comedy. I need a chill.
10:42
But like bro. So he he kills his wife in a
10:46
drive, whatever. And then he oh, spoiler alert.
10:52
And then he falls off, turns bad at golf, whatever.
10:55
And bro, in one round he gets back, he is terrible, gets drunk
11:01
and then turns his whole career back in one round of golf and
11:05
then is another gold jacket again like it just there's.
11:08
There's no build up. Yeah.
11:09
And I reckon all good comedies, OK, it's about being funny, but
11:14
all good comedies actually have a good storytelling process as
11:20
well, where it's like there's actually intelligent ways to do
11:24
it, where it's like, that's actually pretty good because
11:26
it's kind of true, you know what I mean?
11:28
But there wasn't any of those moments in it where it was like,
11:31
that's actually kind of touching on a funny, like, topical
11:35
subject right now. Yeah.
11:36
I. Do feel like maybe, maybe I
11:39
don't know if they ever thought this, but like because it was
11:41
such a big movie back in the day, they knew they were going
11:43
to get people. Yeah.
11:44
Yeah, exactly. They'll probably write in on
11:45
that. I'd like to, I feel.
11:46
Like, that's what everyone does these days with movies, though.
11:49
Like, they they know a sequel to Gladiator is going to hit.
11:53
Yeah. And so without even trying,
11:56
you're going to get a billion people watching.
11:58
It I'll be, I'll be up front with you.
11:59
I would not watch Gladiator 2 ever again, ever again.
12:03
That started. Gladiator 2.
12:04
I hated that so. Much bro, I sat there the whole
12:07
movie and I was like, this is Gaya.
12:10
Yeah, you know, it was real putty, bro.
12:13
You know, so I'm that's one movie I would never watch again.
12:17
And I know that's probably your opinion on this.
12:19
You know what realistically, bro?
12:21
Like if if I take away the actors and all that it is
12:25
honestly the movie is probably more of a three out of 10.
12:28
Yes, that's my bro. He's coming back around.
12:30
I'm not gonna lie, OK? Would you watch it again?
12:33
Probably not. Like it would have to be, it
12:36
just pops up and you're like eating or something and you just
12:38
need like a background. I ain't even gonna lie.
12:40
I gotta be that bored out of my mind.
12:42
Yeah. To watch that movie again.
12:43
That. That.
12:44
That's why I'll watch it again. Yeah.
12:45
I'm not gonna lie. Yeah.
12:47
Like it's it's part. But that's why I said 7 out of
12:49
10, only because of the actors and the original cast that came
12:51
back. That's what I was hooked.
12:53
On Now the last thing that pushed me off for is that bad
12:55
group of golfers. OK, so you know that that that
12:58
girl, that guy of the chainsaw, Yeah, they got obviously they
13:00
got the main evil guy that was introduced to US 80% of the way
13:05
through the movie. OK, so the main guy is just
13:09
introduced to us, like, oh, yeah, this is random dude.
13:10
He's just on the tour and like, he's he's really good.
13:13
OK, now that guy's the main evil guy, bro.
13:16
Where's his back story? Yeah, I can't.
13:17
I'm not connected to this guy at all.
13:18
I don't even hate him. Like you don't.
13:20
Have any sense of emotion toward him or anything a or feelings
13:22
yet? Yeah, yeah.
13:23
So like bro, you just introduced me and now I have to respect
13:26
him. OK, sweet.
13:27
And then, bro, you get introduced to the other main bad
13:30
dudes and then one of them has a we're talking about G1 of them
13:34
has a chainsaw and there's hitting with one arm and the
13:37
others this weird lady. And I can't even remember the
13:39
other dude. See if I can't remember the main
13:41
bad guys, That's terrible. That's actually terrible.
13:44
So I, I, I hated that as well. Like bro, I I just hate movies.
13:51
Maybe it's like TV series now that have just groomed me into
13:56
how things should be done. Like how how how you need a
14:01
develop a character and bring them like portray them and get
14:05
me attached to them is just the the standard is way higher now I
14:10
feel like anyway. If you've seen Happy Guild Wars
14:12
Two, let us know you're on this opinion.
14:15
We'll give an ounce, so message us if you've you know, you're
14:19
ranking out of 10. Don't get Netflix for it.
14:22
It's terrible. OK, good instrumental for it,
14:26
Dear Mama. So I just had a little think
14:30
this week because I'm leaving my work and also so is our admin
14:38
project admin lady as well. So our company is having to
14:42
currently go through reshuffle and hire some people or my old
14:45
company and they, so I was telling you before they ended up
14:53
filling our positions by actually hiring.
14:57
One of the engineers I work with is mum and I talked to him about
15:02
it and I said I was going to talk about it in the podcast as
15:04
well. I just was like to him, do you
15:07
not find that a bit crazy? What do you reckon about would
15:11
you be off that? Would you be all good with it?
15:19
I I'd be low key like I'll be OK with it.
15:25
It's just bro imagine you pulling up to work with your mom
15:28
every day. Bro.
15:30
And going home with your mom every day you.
15:32
Cannot get rides? You can't get rides bro.
15:35
That is way too baby bro if you're getting rides helping out
15:38
the car. Bro, I love my mom, but I like
15:42
it would be. I feel like if you're doing
15:45
that, you're almost not developing as a human.
15:48
Yeah, I, you have to get away from the norm.
15:52
Yeah, sometimes. And, and what I mean by the norm
15:54
is like being comfortable. Yeah, Yeah.
15:56
Around people you're comfortable with.
15:58
And that's what I've kind of done, like me moving jobs as
16:00
well, like, you know, forcing myself to go to a job where, you
16:03
know, I've got to learn new things, you know.
16:05
Yeah. So for me, yeah, it's it would
16:08
be a little. Uncomfortable bro, it would
16:09
throw me back to high school because same as you.
16:11
Like, obviously it wouldn't have ruined my life, but it would, it
16:18
wouldn't have ruined my life. But I'll just be offered because
16:21
you want to be your own adult. You don't want to have to.
16:24
Because it just throws me back to when I'm at high school.
16:27
I went to school with my mum every day of high school.
16:29
And you know, she's going. Come on, come on, get your bag
16:32
ready. We're going, we're going.
16:33
And you made me late. You made me late again.
16:36
And then so we, it would throw me back to that.
16:40
And I can imagine it would be the same dynamic.
16:42
Like you'd be, you know, in the car getting to work, she'd be
16:46
making you lunch. But.
16:48
And my mom's so loving and stuff that she'd be like, she would
16:52
look after me too good. Yeah, yeah.
16:55
My mom would be coming and, like, dropping little breakfast
16:58
things off to me in the morning. Like I made you a coffee thing.
17:01
I'm like, Mum, stop embarrassing me.
17:03
I love. You but don't do it.
17:07
I'm a man now. I can look after myself, but
17:09
thank you. But thank you.
17:11
I'll take that. I'll take it and I'll say some
17:13
washing if you can take that home as well.
17:15
No, but I honestly, it would take me back to washing.
17:19
It would take me back about 15 years of maturity, I reckon.
17:22
And one day like I, I couldn't, I, I definitely if she came to
17:28
work at my work for some random reason and my mom said, hey, you
17:32
know how you're just moving jobs crazy.
17:34
I just applied for a job there and I got it.
17:35
I'm gonna be working with you. I would resign that day.
17:39
No, without a doubt. Would you resign or no?
17:41
I'm. Probably not because I need the
17:45
job. Yeah, I would resign to find a
17:47
new job, obviously. But yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I.
17:48
Can't. I'm like, mom, I can't do that.
17:50
I'm sorry. There was a time bar where my
17:52
mom, for example, she because she's in education as well.
17:55
Yeah, and I was at uni at the time and I didn't realize, but
18:00
somehow my university asked her to come into a lecture in my
18:04
class and straight up, straight up bro.
18:07
And I don't know, she only told me the week she was like of her
18:12
having to come in. And so she comes in, bro, and
18:15
I'm like, Oh my God, my mom's doing a lecture, right?
18:18
Now did you? Did you tell everyone?
18:19
In front of like 300 students. Wow, that's pretty impressive to
18:22
be honest. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:23
So like my old lady, she does, you know, she she she does.
18:27
She what is it when you do like public speaking, you know, like
18:31
that's part of your, your job and that.
18:33
Anyway, so she come in and yeah, she did this whole thing, bro.
18:37
And I was like, and no one knew that she was my mom.
18:40
So I kept the quiet. Oh, did you?
18:41
I kept the quiet, bro, and then it popped up.
18:44
She had to do slides and I was a picture of her right there.
18:49
Yeah, bro and I. Was like Oh no way more.
18:52
Yeah, bro, and and the she's got a tailor there for.
18:56
You. And anyway, as soon as the
18:58
picture come up, my face just went Reggie and everyone, all
19:02
299 other students just woof. And I'm like, oh hell.
19:09
Mom, just mom just my to nothing with one single picture.
19:12
They couldn't believe because obviously my mom, when you look
19:15
at her appearance, she's quite fierce skin.
19:18
Yeah. Yeah, well, she pretty much is
19:20
European skin. You can tell she has something,
19:24
but you're not sure what it is. And anyway, obviously I'm dark
19:28
in comparison to my mom. And so everyone was just like, I
19:30
did not know that was your mom. And I was like, yeah, that's
19:33
that's my old lady right there. Did you say like shot mom or
19:35
anything? Nah, Nah, I just.
19:37
Saw mom any any extra grades or. Anything.
19:40
Yeah. So it was pretty funny, bro.
19:41
It was. Pretty funny, but I was the
19:43
biggest. Like all my mates would give me
19:46
shit about it. Like I was the biggest mommy's
19:48
boy. Yeah, but mom, mom would
19:50
embarrass me so many times. Like because she worked in the
19:53
intermediate when I was at high school, but she'd like walk into
19:56
my, I'd be in year 10 science or something and my mom would walk
20:00
into the class. We're like, hey, darling, how
20:02
are you? How how's the day going?
20:04
And I was like, mum, get away, man.
20:06
I'm trying to be cool. You're literally ruining my
20:09
coolness right now. She's like, oh, I'm just
20:11
dropping off your subway for lunch.
20:12
I didn't pack your lunch. And I was like, oh, bro, I'm so
20:15
spoiled. I was so spoiled.
20:18
It's cringe. Grateful.
20:21
Though, Yeah. Grateful for the subway.
20:23
But now I look back in and it's like, that's like, what a great
20:27
mom. But like, that's, that's the
20:29
type. That's why my mom, I couldn't
20:30
have her at work. Like she'd be babying me so bad.
20:34
And I can't because I can't help but like when she's around, I
20:38
can't help but like, be a baby as well.
20:41
Yeah, yeah. Like do you get like that as
20:43
well? I see what you mean.
20:44
Yeah, I know what you mean. By but when I'm when I'm away
20:46
from her, I'm like, I'm a man. I know you're like, obviously
20:51
we've spoken about this in the past and, you know, your parents
20:53
just want to be heavily involved in, you know, your day-to-day
20:55
life. And yeah, that's why I love it,
20:57
bro. Like I'm, I'm gonna be up front.
20:58
I always call my family as much as possible now that I live away
21:01
from him and just keep him in the loop and that.
21:03
But yeah, you know, it's, it's obviously, yeah.
21:07
It's not something that I would, you know, want with.
21:09
Work and every day like like, let's keep that separate, eh?
21:12
Yeah, exactly. So this kind of segues into, I
21:15
guess what we're trying to get into, Yeah.
21:17
Yeah, so I kind of voted thinking about it from work and
21:20
stuff and obviously we love sports and just general life
21:24
stuff as well. You can think of What are the
21:26
best parent and kid combos in the world in history, do you
21:30
reckon? I have a few that come to mind,
21:32
like off the bat bro if we just jump straight into NRL, you
21:37
think Nathan Cleary and Ivan Cleary?
21:39
One of the greatest right now, but.
21:41
That's the that's the greatest coach captain do is he captain?
21:45
He's not, but that's the coach best coach, player, captain.
21:47
Like it's insane, bro, to think they are the best team of all
21:52
time. Cleary is the best player of all
21:54
time. Would you say Ivan Cleary is the
21:56
best coach of all time? He he's definitely I'll take
21:59
him. I actually would bro.
22:00
Yeah, I'll take him bro, because they actually do play away where
22:04
they you can tell the coaching has impacted them.
22:06
Well, like, bro, they the outside backs get like specific
22:11
targeted carries where you know, that's a game plan and that
22:14
helps the forwards out there. Then they have like cuz Cleary
22:18
isn't exactly like a Shawn Johnson break the line of stuff.
22:20
So how they're scoring is from set moves and from like, you
22:26
know, look, they're graded like behind the early kicks shift.
22:30
Somehow they always find overlaps and then just let the
22:34
plays and stuff he's put in places.
22:35
So I think Cleary is one of the best coaches and then also the a
22:41
funny one is Shane Flanagan and Karl Flanagan right now.
22:43
Yeah. So what's going on there?
22:44
So obviously Shane Flanagan's long time in our grade coach and
22:50
then Karl Flanagan, they're in the same situation as Ivan
22:55
Cleary and Nathan Cleary, starting half back and head
22:57
coach. But before this Karl Flanagan
23:01
was jumping from club to club. He couldn't he got he kind of
23:04
moved from Roosters moved from couldn't crack it and Bulldogs
23:07
was in reserve grade and all of a sudden is starting every week
23:12
now that his dad is this of the of his coach of this of the
23:16
Dragons, and he's been getting ridiculed online because they're
23:22
not doing great. They're bottom, bottom of the
23:25
ladder pretty much. Oh, I don't know, are they?
23:27
They're not they're not doing terrible.
23:29
Like they're not the worst, but they're not doing great.
23:31
And it just goes to show, bro, you can't.
23:34
You can't be a, you're the son of the coach if you're not hands
23:38
down the best player because it just looks us.
23:41
Even if you're just slightly good, it still looks us.
23:45
You need to be the absolute best by far.
23:48
How do you how do you think like people like Ivan and Nathan, you
23:53
know, have developed that that maturity, but also like Nathan
23:57
is honestly one-of-a-kind. Yeah.
24:00
In terms of, you know, a player with a mental fortitude and the
24:04
physical fortitude as well, bro, just being able to go out in the
24:07
field and just handle the pressure.
24:09
There's a stage in his career. But people were hating on him
24:12
even now. Like people hate on him, you
24:14
know, but people are hating on him.
24:15
But bro, you can't deny it. He's been a freak since he got
24:19
into the game. But then you have to think that
24:21
has to come with some type of teaching that Ivan's given him.
24:24
Yeah, true. So it must, it must have been
24:28
helpful to him to some way like just that.
24:31
That makes me think that. So what did?
24:35
What do you think though? Is is what level is it OK for
24:39
you to be coached by your dad? Because have you been coached by
24:43
your dad before? Yeah, same.
24:45
I've been coached by my dad. One year yeah definitely like
24:47
when you're a kid I think that's that's super important a because
24:50
you're developing that obviously as a kid I don't think you think
24:55
about it too much yeah. You just got into training you
24:58
just you really you're thinking about.
24:59
I'm going to see my mates, you know what I mean?
25:01
And. And then on Saturdays you're
25:04
getting shouted at by your dad. Make the tackle sound, yeah.
25:08
Get in there not talking to you on the right.
25:10
Hand and so, yeah, maybe, but then when you get to the more
25:14
professional era, yeah, that's when like if my son's not
25:19
performing and I'm the coach. You need to be harder on the
25:23
May. If you need I'm kinda on the
25:25
out. I'm about to hand my resignation
25:27
and get out of here bro. True, true.
25:30
You know, it might be the and, yeah, instead of saying, Kyle,
25:33
why are you there, it might be Shane Flanagan being my mate.
25:37
Yeah, like, OK, my son's struggling here.
25:39
Maybe it's time for me to find another position somewhere.
25:42
Else, I know he's just taking on the role, but yeah, I mean, I
25:46
wouldn't necessarily just put on the athlete.
25:48
Yeah, Yeah, that's a good. Point There are people choosing
25:50
him for a reason and ultimately that's a coaching stuff so.
25:53
Yeah, there's some similar situation happened in the NBA
25:55
with Doc Rivers and Austin Rivers.
25:58
No, Yeah, apparently they he, he, he pretty much gave his son
26:02
a massive contract, like it was like 20 million or something and
26:06
he was like everyone was. Like I'm trying to do right
26:08
here, son. Yeah, he's a bench.
26:10
Player as well, a role player. Oh wow yeah.
26:12
So 20 mil? Nah, it was like a 20 mil over
26:15
like three years or two years or.
26:17
Something bam that's still heaps.
26:18
Though, Yeah, it was pretty, yeah, it was questionable.
26:20
Everyone was like, mate, that's a bit dodgy, 100%.
26:24
But like, anyway, I'll do that. I don't know.
26:28
I don't know actually. Anyway, we have some, I guess
26:32
the father, son, daughter, you know, mum or you know, father
26:35
daughter combo, etcetera. Yeah.
26:37
And we've got a couple that we we think are pretty ultimate.
26:40
My first one, bro, is by all means bro, one of the greatest,
26:44
I think, duos in the game. And that was Will Smith.
26:51
Jaden Smith. Yeah.
26:53
I reckon this is one of the deadliest combos, bro, You know
26:55
what I mean? Yeah, and this is a fire song.
26:58
They're both on us. They're not both on I.
27:00
Just want to play as well. I just.
27:01
Want to play soccer because it's fire, right?
27:04
Yeah, yeah. Hey, let's go.
27:11
But this is one of the greatest doers, I think, on the scene.
27:14
And Jayden and obviously his sister have done pretty well and
27:17
looking after themselves, I guess.
27:18
And you know, these guys, these types of individuals that don't
27:22
have an excuse. I like it because.
27:25
Everything's everything's got every opportunity.
27:26
Everything's on the platter for him already.
27:28
But one of my favorite things was when they're on the pursuit
27:30
of happiness together, remember that on that movie together,
27:33
bro, One of the best movies I've seen in a, you know, during
27:36
that, man, the 2000s were so good for me, this bro in the 90s
27:39
anyway. And that's when I kind of saw
27:41
Jaden Smith for the first time. And then obviously that set him
27:45
up to do other things. Like I even love he was in
27:47
there. Karate Kid.
27:48
Karate Kid. Yeah.
27:49
Well, Jack Chan and I was like, bro, that's awesome.
27:50
Man, I bro that kids hate that movie.
27:52
Yeah, yeah, she like it. I like it.
27:54
That too bro, that's better than any movie these days.
27:56
Yeah, yeah, yeah, 100%. And everyone was saying like
27:58
Jaden was a trash actor on that. I was like, bro, he I thought he
28:01
did well. Yeah, bro, when that that scene,
28:04
when he's like it's become a meme now, but it's like, I hate
28:08
it here. You're like, you made me move
28:10
like that When he's saying that to.
28:11
People mock it. Yeah, they're saying like it
28:13
was, I don't know, like people will say when you're in the dog
28:18
box or something and they'll meme it kind of thing.
28:20
But I think Kradic is a really good movie.
28:23
Yeah, I do too. Obviously he wasn't in the
28:27
movie, though. It was Will Smith.
28:28
Nah, he was director. OK, Yeah, I rated it bro.
28:31
I really enjoyed it. So that's my first combo that I
28:34
think actually in Hollywood you could say that I think have done
28:39
well. Themselves, but my one I'm going
28:41
straight off the bat is LeBron James and Bronie James.
28:43
Like insane bro, just to play maybe the best professional
28:50
sport league in the world and a father and a son are playing
28:56
together, bro. And Lebron's still one of the
28:58
best players in the league and he's playing with Bronie and
29:00
Bro. Bronie is the main player as
29:02
well. I don't care what people say.
29:04
He's athletic. He's like got the right
29:06
mentality. He's not a hog.
29:07
He passes, he plays the right way.
29:09
And to just play by at that high level, the highest level with
29:13
your son, I don't think that just is so unimaginably.
29:18
Yeah, crazy how that grasp. I can't grasp it bro because.
29:21
Imagine playing NRL with your dad.
29:23
I know, I know. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
29:25
That's like 4041 year old bro playing with a son.
29:27
He's only, what, 20? Yeah, he's 20 now.
29:29
I. Think something like that.
29:30
And I'm just, it's incredible the longevity that this man, and
29:33
we've spoken about it on the podcast before, has had.
29:36
Yeah. But to do it at that level, at
29:38
the highest level and still do it like you're the best.
29:41
You're you're still the best player.
29:42
Yeah, he's top 20 in the game, bro.
29:44
I honestly cannot believe it. I can't have.
29:46
Him Have you played when you were there before?
29:47
No, that's bro. Yeah.
29:50
No, bro. Like that's one thing I that's
29:54
not a regret. It's like a one thing I wish I
29:56
could do, bro. You know, growing up is I wish I
29:59
had, I had stepped on a field with my dad because growing up
30:02
my dad would have tapes of him playing in the 90s and stuff,
30:06
playing against some of the great, you know, clubs like my
30:08
dad, my old man played for Northcote Tigers.
30:10
Yeah, you know what I mean? And Tigers back in the 90s was
30:12
one of the dominant clubs. Yeah.
30:14
And but then you had your owner who you point shaves heaps of
30:17
teams, bro. Back then.
30:18
Hibiscus, yeah. We weren't bad.
30:20
Yeah, okay, okay. Well, yeah.
30:22
And then, like you, Glenora is now.
30:24
But so my man played in the 90s and he didn't play for very
30:28
long, but obviously life changed when we came in to the scene,
30:31
you know what I mean? And he kind of gave it away and
30:34
all that. But yeah, yeah, I know.
30:37
But I wish, I wish I had that chance, bro.
30:39
Unlike unlike some people you know who are not like yourself,
30:42
you know you got the chance. Yeah, but I played with my dad
30:45
only for like a exhibition match for one of the Bros that passed
30:49
away with Cullen. He we have like a exhibition or
30:51
we used to have an exhibition match every year for him and me,
30:54
my brother and my dad all played together and I remember we only
30:58
played 10-5 minutes together because my dad did a few head
31:01
ups and went off but still still solid.
31:05
And he was like 40-50. Maybe he'd been like mid 40s but
31:09
you know, he's big bro. He'd done one head up and we
31:12
were versing dudes that were playing topside N Harbor rugby
31:17
and he's just like running straight at them.
31:19
And his first head up he does bro.
31:22
My brothers, one of my brother's good mates tackles him and he
31:26
gets angry that my brother's mates tackled him.
31:28
He plays the ball and punches. He punches my brother's best
31:31
mates bro. The game gets called off like
31:35
snow doesn't get fully called off but stop at an exhibition
31:38
match for for one of our like family friends, that's like
31:41
pass. Manual.
31:42
That's it. We.
31:42
Know the whole crowd's going nuts, like yeah, Manuel, yeah,
31:47
Manuel and it. But me and my brother are trying
31:49
to apologize to everyone. I'm sorry about my dad.
31:50
I'm sorry about Dad. Get off, get the man.
31:54
Then go off the field. Both.
31:56
Yeah. He's like one of those ones.
31:58
Angry. You tackle room?
31:59
Yeah. How dare you tackle me.
32:00
Yeah. Man, yeah, that's something I
32:01
wish I did. That's something I wish I.
32:03
Did, but yeah, then we can say. Never know, never know.
32:05
Might get there one day. Yeah.
32:06
And I'm playing masters. Masters over 30s.
32:09
Another one that came to mind on the sports, I guess topic is
32:15
Archie Manning and Peyton and Eli Manning.
32:17
Yeah, bro, one of the most unreal scenes, like both
32:20
brothers winning Super Bowls, you know, and all that.
32:23
But that's another one that I think is just incredible.
32:25
Like to have two brothers or two sons in Archie's case, you know,
32:29
paid in Eli play in the NFL where he wants it.
32:32
One of the best. Yeah, I definitely think that
32:35
that's up there. And Archie's really good coming
32:38
in from Texas as well. He might be so top ten.
32:41
Pick this next. Year true.
32:42
Yeah. OK.
32:43
And then onto some music and entertainment. 111 that I had
32:48
was Billy Ray Cyrus and Miley Cyrus.
32:50
Hey. Hannah Montana.
32:51
Baby. Yep, you know the theme song.
32:53
How does it go? Oh, I do know it even better
33:00
than each other. Yeah, bro, that's one of the
33:04
great. Yeah, that's one of the best, I
33:07
guess. Or TV shows you.
33:09
Get Yeah, but I'll rate that top Hannah Montana, especially
33:12
Disney. It'll be top five Disney for.
33:13
Sure. You know, I only knew he was
33:15
Hannah Montana. I didn't even know he was Miley
33:16
Cyrus. But I didn't even know.
33:18
And then it wasn't until obviously I got older and then
33:20
the show stopped. I didn't.
33:21
Realize that was her actual. Dad, yeah, yeah, yeah, I was
33:23
like an actual yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm the same yeah, I'm in the
33:26
same boat. So that's definitely one of my I
33:29
guess best, best, I guess father daughter combos.
33:32
Yeah, in the game at the moment, I'm going.
33:36
Borrow this. I'm actually running out of
33:38
something bro. The F1?
33:42
So there's a bit of nepotism drama in the F1?
33:46
Have you heard about that before?
33:47
Well, I mean, yeah, I've heard a lot of drama when it comes to
33:50
F1. So obviously talking about,
33:53
yeah, so obviously F1 and it takes heaps of money to become
33:57
an F1 driver. Like you need to start off with
33:59
go karting, you need to somehow. I don't even know how you get
34:02
involved in the F1. Right.
34:04
You need billions of dollars. I played.
34:05
Every single sport growing up and I don't know how you would
34:07
even start F1 like they weren't they were they can't be athletic
34:13
anyway. There's there's the there's
34:16
these father son. The father is like a self-made
34:20
billionaire who just like loves Motorsports and his name is
34:25
Lawrence Stroll. And he pretty much paid for his
34:30
paid for his son to become the driver of his son is Lance
34:35
Stroll. And he pretty much paid for him
34:38
to become the lead driver of of AF1 car, which is a bit SUS.
34:46
And apparently he's just like real average of driving like he
34:49
crashed and just the one of those when the yellow flag comes
34:52
out, he crashed into the Daniel Ricardo and apparently he just
34:57
always crashes. Yeah.
34:58
So that's another one. I, I, I, if one is such a part,
35:03
there's got to be so much politics involved in that sport.
35:06
It's ridiculous. Another one on that.
35:08
If one thing, you've seen that in a series.
35:12
Is this drive to survive? Yeah.
35:14
No, not Drive to Survive, the Formula One series.
35:17
What's the one that's on Netflix anyway?
35:19
Yeah, Drive to Survive. Oh, is it?
35:20
Unless it's a new one. No, the one that we all used to
35:22
watch. Yeah, yeah.
35:23
Drive awesome. Yeah.
35:24
Oh, what the hell? OK, anyway, And the Williams,
35:27
the Williams team. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
35:28
And the father daughter combo that they're both CEOs or
35:31
whatever of the business and that and pretty much I mean that
35:35
they're the worst team. Yeah, just picking who they want
35:39
to be in the drivers. Yeah.
35:42
I don't know. I don't know.
35:43
Yeah. But like, it just makes you
35:46
think though, like about like working.
35:49
What do you reckon would be the worst?
35:53
Or do you have any more offers? No.
35:55
What do you reckon would be the worst job in the world to work
36:00
with your parents? Bro straight up builders.
36:07
Gee I cannot admit like anything.
36:08
Laborers bro. Honestly, if my dad is above me
36:10
and. Yeah, bro, because you'll be
36:12
getting flogged. Flogged and and being sworn at
36:17
all the time, like my dad hating on me or my mum hating on me
36:20
because I'm not doing things quick enough, you know, to their
36:23
level, especially in Labor's job.
36:25
I just know that that would be the way.
36:27
Because you're going to have to be the one doing the labor.
36:28
Yeah, yeah, 100% yeah. And I know some father son
36:32
combos at the moment, you know, on the.
36:34
Street some. Fathers.
36:36
Oh bro, and I can just not imagine what this son's going
36:39
through mentally every single day.
36:40
It might be the greatest thing ever.
36:41
I know I might have it wrong but honestly.
36:44
No, but I've worked my dad as a drain layer and he abused me by
36:47
like, it's just like constant. Where?
36:50
What are they? Yeah, it's like, bro,
36:52
everything's the end of the world as well.
36:54
Like bro, I've just put something away wrong and he's
36:56
like yelling like, Oh my God. What about podcasting with your
36:59
dad? Bro, that might be actually one
37:01
of the best things. Yeah, yeah, that might be the.
37:03
Best I ain't lying bro because you're pretty much sharing man.
37:06
That might be a good combo. Yeah, yeah, that might be the
37:08
best. One, we might need to find a
37:09
father son podcast out there. Maybe we've got an off.
37:13
Break bro Maddie. John's in there.
37:15
Oh yeah, they have one too. Yeah.
37:16
So maybe. Yeah.
37:17
And that goes through the combo as well.
37:18
Yeah, that's true. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
37:20
And mom's on that one too every now and then as well.
37:22
So man, it's a good way to catch up.
37:24
Yeah, so you know that he's definitely still getting rides
37:27
to with his mum. Hey darling, he's on the side 8.
37:30
We made you lunch. Yeah, true.
37:32
Maybe that, maybe that, but yeah.
37:34
Not either. Let us know your favorite father
37:37
son combos, mum son mum daughter combos.
37:39
Yeah. Or vice versa.
37:40
Yeah. Yeah.
37:41
Anything else? Yeah.
37:41
Father, daughter, mum, son, whatever it is.
37:52
Well, if you heard that we're looking at we're supporters in
37:55
this segment and supporters that are kind of out of pocket for
37:59
saying things, doing things that, you know, pretty much
38:02
uncalled for. That's a very good example.
38:04
We didn't even plan that, but for a golf hit club on the back
38:08
swing, that's insane. That's yeah.
38:10
Do they do their live golf or not?
38:12
They're allowed to shout, yeah, they're, they're encouraged to.
38:15
And if, if anything, it's different because live golf, for
38:18
example, in comparison to PGA, yeah, live golf, you, you know,
38:22
you're gonna get shout at or yelled at or whatever.
38:25
So you're expecting it. Yeah.
38:26
In PGA, it's etiquette not to obviously shout and do things or
38:30
make noise or move when the golf is in their swing.
38:32
Yeah. And when they do that, Oh, brah.
38:35
Yeah. Or hell, breaking loose on you.
38:37
Yeah. Yeah.
38:37
Like you're, you're actually an idiot.
38:39
You you better leave as soon as possible.
38:40
You're you're an absolute scum of the earth.
38:43
That's how they look at UA, That's how they look at all
38:45
these old. Dudes with the polos and stuff.
38:47
Yeah. So to our W supporters, yeah.
38:51
Do you want to go? Yeah.
38:52
Yeah, no, I just want to give the story of why, why, why we're
38:55
talking about this because pretty much we made a shout out
38:59
to our Hibiscus Coast and all Tata.
39:01
They played in the grand final, the Shaman Cup and they they had
39:07
a very good final, I must say so and it was it was really good
39:11
rugby league, especially for the second version of Sharma Cup.
39:14
Really some really good players on both teams there.
39:17
Hibiscus were undefeated the whole year and ended up losing
39:21
to all Tata in the final. So Congrats to all Tata.
39:24
But I made a video and it was pretty much saying there was one
39:28
strip in my opinion that was a clear strip and it lead to a try
39:33
which, yeah, I just think the ref did not do a good job with
39:37
that call. Anyway, I made a video about it
39:40
and the old, the old Tata fans got hold of it and went
39:46
absolutely crazy. Bro.
39:49
Like bro, I had people calling me out like calling me mud at
39:54
league, calling me like a stupid, calling me like some
40:00
people just straight up swearing at me.
40:01
Like actually. Seemed like I ruined their day.
40:05
I was like bro, So I just wanted to touch on it like bro, if
40:09
you're a supporter and something like as little as that can ruin
40:15
your day, like bro, you must have not a lot going on for you
40:19
in your life. I'm going to be honest bro
40:22
because like really all I'm saying is ref terrible call and
40:29
then dudes coming at me like. What would you know?
40:31
About. League you.
40:33
Never for like shush bar. I guarantee you've never even
40:37
played League. First of all, the ones that's
40:39
coming at me. And if you have, you have there,
40:41
mate. Josiah's playing at Maori's near
40:45
end of the week. They can, if you need a smash.
40:50
Want to try to smash me, then smash them.
40:52
Take it out of me. Yeah, yeah.
40:54
Wait, offload, eh? Wait, offload on the very MODIS.
40:56
Nationals Josiah will be there for all of you guys.
41:00
Hey, bro, I'm there every year, bro, I'm there every year.
41:03
And bro, I just love footy. I love footy, yeah.
41:06
No, I'll, I'll let you guys know when I'm when I'm going to come
41:09
back for my one off tour tournament, Maldis tournament
41:11
and you can play me then if you want to play me.
41:13
I'm trying to pull. I'm trying to pull your pull
41:15
your arm on this one and rope you any.
41:18
Bro, they almost made me want to come over a time I was straight
41:20
up I was like, but I might have to try and train, do a full
41:23
preseason, like actually come back like Greg English, is that
41:26
us? Is that us?
41:28
Is that us? I'm on.
41:29
I'm on board. I'm on board.
41:30
Let's go. You want to do a full preseason,
41:32
right? Full preseason preseason, right?
41:34
That's us all. For this one tournament, just so
41:37
I can see you out there. Yeah.
41:39
Bro, yeah, but like, yeah, so just to develop it further.
41:43
So what do you reckon? What's your, I guess, what's
41:47
your opinion on that? First of all, you understand
41:48
where they're coming from or what you reckon they take too
41:50
far. I'll play devil's advocate.
41:52
I I see where they're coming from, bro, because obviously you
41:55
took 11 aspect of of the game and obviously there had
42:00
obviously been many others in the game that had happened, but
42:04
it was taken out of context as well because you're only just
42:08
choosing one part. But they their argument is,
42:11
well, what about all the thousands of other calls that
42:13
went against us or, you know, went your way?
42:15
Do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
42:17
So that's. They also mention commentators
42:20
and that's BS because I've I've never ever.
42:24
Bro this is a little side Side Story.
42:27
I've never heard a commentator cheer so loud when all titles
42:30
scored. Yeah, true.
42:32
Have you ever heard this? The all title scored and the
42:36
commentator said get that into you.
42:42
What the heck bro? That is the most biased comment
42:46
you could literally say. What do you mean you're supposed
42:49
to be non bias bro? Partial impartial, OK, just on
42:52
this commentators thing and bro, because I'll be straight up like
42:56
I love S Auckland too, bro. Like I know we're both from the
42:59
shore and all that, bro. I love it because all my my
43:01
family's all out those ways and stuff.
43:02
We're sorts of South Auckland stuff.
43:04
So I love them. I I can get behind, get behind
43:10
it. And yes, it's good for the game
43:11
too, bro, like we were talking about in our last podcast, you
43:14
know, about, you know, Polynesian players or mighty
43:17
players, you know, being able to play for their home countries.
43:19
Well, with Australia. And so for the game to obviously
43:23
for them to win it down there, it's awesome.
43:25
You know, to, to, you know, congratulations to them.
43:28
Obviously that's where I'm going with it anyway.
43:32
Yeah. So I guess where I'm going with
43:34
it is, what was your question like leading, leading?
43:38
Whoa, whoa, I mentioned the commentators.
43:40
Yeah. So going to the commentator
43:41
aspect, OK, the next game after that one, right was Otahu, Yeah,
43:47
versus Mount Albert, Mount Albert, right.
43:49
And I've OK there was a lot of biasy towards.
43:53
The South Auckland team. Well, Otahu, the commentator,
43:56
OK, And this is where it kind of bro, this was so out of pocket.
44:00
The commentator goes, I'm willing to bet my car, my house,
44:03
my job, that odo, who's going to win today?
44:05
I was like, bro, good on you for backing them actually, first and
44:08
foremost because that's cool. But to say that.
44:10
As a commentator bro. Is insane.
44:12
Where are they getting these commentators from bro?
44:14
That is crazy you're saying that.
44:17
They must have honestly went to the crowd and be like, hey, who
44:19
wants to commentate? Yeah, we need a couple more
44:21
commentators and then like bro, the most loudest dude went to go
44:25
go be the commentator because that get that into you, bro, as
44:30
a commentator. What do you what do you mean?
44:32
Bro? You can't say that to beat.
44:34
To beat your life savings on it. But it's insane and.
44:37
Cheering bro when when all thought oh almost went over for
44:42
a try. They'd be like, oh, I'm I'm
44:47
yelling at the micro, but actual getting here like best day of
44:54
their life cheering. Yeah, like what are you doing,
44:57
bro? Let's just.
44:58
Like, well, that's why that's why it's really important, bro,
45:01
that you have, you know, commentators and that are
45:05
neutral. Neutral.
45:06
Exactly. Yeah.
45:06
And look, I'll be honest with you, OK, This segues into risks.
45:12
OK, let's just change this from supporters and just call
45:15
everyone out. We don't like.
45:17
Yeah, OK. But.
45:19
Do you think at any point there's a riff that that is
45:23
favouring one team? Bro 100%.
45:25
Like when I think of Queensland versus NSW, bro, surely there's
45:28
a riff that that they're a Queenslander or they're a NSW
45:31
referee and they're like, I really want NSW to win but I
45:35
gotta make sure that I make the right 'cause I'm still gonna
45:38
favor and let a few calls go to my team.
45:39
Do you know what? I mean, I reckon it's impossible
45:41
to be completely fair because you're bro, you're always gonna
45:45
have a favorite like, and we'll play the heaps of sports games.
45:49
And so when you yell at the ref or swear at the ref or
45:52
something, you always get more calls against you.
45:55
And as you become more professional, the refs get
45:58
better, but they still will have a slight bias towards one thing.
46:03
But you get a runaway and it's a slightly forward pass.
46:06
And they'll have to make a split decision.
46:09
They're gonna most likely let it go if it's their favorite team
46:12
or whatever. If it's a 5050 right now, call
46:15
it because it's gonna be less of a moral dilemma.
46:18
That's what it is. It's a moral dilemma in their
46:20
head. And if it's like a 5050, what's
46:23
the moral, moral dilemma gonna favour?
46:26
Like, is it gonna favour my team I want to win or the team that's
46:29
been swearing at me the whole game?
46:30
Yeah. True.
46:31
I guess where I'm going with this look, shout out to all four
46:35
teams that were in the grand final, the Shaman and obviously
46:37
the Fox final. It's awesome that ODA, who had
46:39
the Fox premiership, took it out because they haven't won in a
46:42
very long time, bro. And I think that's why it's so
46:45
cool because bro, when we were playing buddy, hell man, point
46:47
ship every year. Oh hell, I couldn't be.
46:52
They were stacked. They were stacked.
46:54
So now shout out to those things and obviously all tired of
46:57
taking it out, but also to the teams that lost as well.
46:59
Man now, but in in hibiscus, hibiscus as well.
47:02
But going to we're supporters for me.
47:05
I'm not talking about golf hecklers here, but honestly,
47:07
mums and dads at under 10 level like sports like soccer,
47:13
football or like tennis bar like rugby.
47:17
My gosh, they actually grind like they grind me real bad.
47:22
Like it it, it's so crazy to me that parents are so like they
47:27
treat their under 10 level like it's professional sports and I'm
47:31
like, what in the hell are you doing bro?
47:34
Like bro, like. Actually swearing bro.
47:36
And like saying riff, make the right call.
47:38
Like, bro, the riff is only 12 years old.
47:40
Yeah. And doing it for free.
47:43
He's not getting paid to do it and if anything he's probably
47:46
just getting the free feed from the local shop, you know?
47:49
Or and it's always the parents that never played as well.
47:52
So like they'll always be the ones that are most critical the
47:55
most. You know you see if Stacey Jones
47:59
or whatever, I bet if he's a parent now watching bitch he
48:03
doesn't yell cuz he's like or it's under teens.
48:05
Yeah, there's a difference. There's a massive difference
48:09
between a supporter and a Heckler bar, and parents that
48:15
fall into that category that I just please keep your mouth
48:19
shut. I wonder when we become parents
48:20
or we'll be like like the. Nah, because see, I'm too.
48:23
Embarrassed. There's no way I'm being one of
48:26
the others. I'm too embarrassed.
48:28
I'm wondering though if I'm going to be one of the ones
48:30
that's real hard on on my kid or not.
48:33
I think, I think to an extent, bro, like that's what's built,
48:36
built me in ways you might think differently.
48:39
Like my dad was pretty hard on me, bro, like through sports.
48:42
But then I remember when I got to high school, right, it all
48:46
cut out. So he, he, he was really hard on
48:48
me growing up from, you know, the ages of five when I first
48:51
started playing sports, maybe 4 all the way up until I got to
48:53
high school. When I got to high school, my
48:55
dad went from the parent on the sideline.
48:57
He was, you know, always yelling at me, not the other kids.
48:59
It was always at me, you know, get in the rock, son, do this.
49:03
Come on, son, do they be better? You know, don't give up all of
49:06
that stuff. And I felt like that.
49:08
Yeah, he was yelling. Don't give up.
49:09
Yeah, bro, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, always.
49:10
That's looking good. That's the.
49:12
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like he would.
49:13
My dad was yelling like. Yeah, well, unless, unless I was
49:16
playing trash and he he would. No, I don't want, I'll save it
49:20
for another time. But when I got to high school,
49:23
it changed. And he he would say nothing.
49:25
He literally said nothing. I would not hear a word coming
49:27
to my dad. And so it just went from being
49:29
someone who was very vocal. Yeah, to to that bro.
49:32
And I was like me, like I see again now that I'm at this age
49:36
now, I look back at it and I'm like, I see why he was the way
49:39
he was. Yeah, and it helped.
49:40
What about you? What about you?
49:41
We're supporters. My dad wasn't allowed at my
49:44
games, my mom didn't let him because he was he held yelled
49:47
too bad but it was shame I remember.
49:51
When your dad, when you're still playing with me up early and we
49:54
played that eight grade against, I think we're playing Trugan or
49:56
something in this game or Karamban.
49:58
And anyway, you got a breakaway. I think you scooped the ball up
50:03
or something, or you got an intercept of some sort.
50:05
We picked up a loose, Yeah. And we're on our own trial line.
50:08
Oh yeah, yeah, You sprinted and I got, I got mowed down.
50:11
Hey. Bro, you got all the way down
50:14
the field anyway, as soon as you scooped it up, the first person
50:17
and the only person I heard from them, my my ears just locked
50:20
into your old man. Yeah, go, son.
50:22
There he is. That's my boy, bro.
50:24
And he went the whole and I was like, bro, I was 80 meters down
50:27
the field and I was like, oh, I'll see where he's going with
50:30
this. Far too much listening, I needed
50:32
some support. I was gas break.
50:36
No, I remember that. He's loud.
50:38
He's definitely going to better but but he was he was pretty
50:40
full on. Well, we're supportive for
50:43
yourself. Bro, I've I reckon that golf's
50:46
pretty bad, eh, but now I reckon growing up and playing league,
50:53
but you you, you just did like South of the West of them.
50:56
But bro, the league rugby and league supporters are pretty bad
51:01
bro. Like I've seen local club games
51:05
and stuff where, you know, fights start with with players
51:10
like, but when we're playing N code and our own supporters were
51:15
abusing like the team and then the Otahu players ran out to try
51:20
to fight our supporters and yeah, yeah, yeah, bro.
51:23
I've seen other ones where like the supporters would be like in
51:27
the car park when we're in the changing shades and it's like,
51:31
bro, you can't leave until it's like clear.
51:34
So there's some pretty bad rugby in league.
51:36
I think it happens in rugby, but league South of some of the West
51:40
Auckland teams, Grenora, there's some pretty bad.
51:44
I don't know, I'm trying to I'm maybe I shouldn't be calling
51:46
people out on that, but but I just reckon those dudes bro, who
51:50
actually support to an extent where they're trying to fight to
51:57
the death. It's like.
51:59
Where they're where they're trying to start something, Yeah.
52:01
Yeah, why are we fighting to the death, bro, when you ain't even
52:04
playing? Yeah, but that's what bro crazy
52:07
supporters do, man. Yeah, they're they're real.
52:10
Like honestly crazy. Like some of the crazy ones I've
52:13
seen too, is in football, like soccer and and like over, you
52:16
know, in the Northern hemisphere specifically.
52:18
Yeah. Bro they're insane like they are
52:20
die hard. They will die for their teams
52:22
bro. And me and you love the
52:24
warriors, like love, love the warriors afterwards.
52:26
But literally I could, I could, I could walk past some in the
52:31
street saying the worst thing about the Warriors and not even
52:35
look at them. Like I just keep caring.
52:37
Like doesn't affect. Me.
52:39
No. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
52:39
But these dudes were actually is like a part of their personality
52:43
being a supporter for a team that affects them so much.
52:46
They will literally by fighting for their team.
52:50
Well, there's not. Like, obviously it's very
52:52
different here, but over there, like I've seen that documentary
52:55
series on Wrexham. Yeah, we are Wrexham.
52:57
And you know, as they're walking to the stadium, the fans broke.
53:01
Police have to line the fields and created in a different
53:05
route, an alternative route for the away supporters so that
53:08
there's no in between, bro. And it gets hated, bro, real
53:12
hate. And I'm like far out, like the
53:14
fact that they're going to that extent, that buzzes me out.
53:17
Yeah. Because we don't see that over
53:19
here, you know, like, I can take a loss over here, but over
53:21
there, bro, damn. Not all of them are like that,
53:23
but yeah, they. It seems like they're crazy low
53:27
key. But yeah, no, that was all I had
53:29
to say. And no.
53:30
And also shout out to the dude that had my back.
53:33
But there was a few of you, not many, but one dude actually came
53:36
out and said like, don't stuff will match you.
53:38
He was a baller back in there. Shout out to you, bro.
53:41
Shout out to you because you were like one of my only
53:43
supporters. Yeah, that's about it.
53:45
But yeah, if you have any other worst supporters, let us know.
