  Speaker 1: Here's a little song I wrote.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Might not sing it note for note. Don't worry.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Be happy. I like that. That was good. That was
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: better than your guitar.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Is that all we know about that song?
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was great. Yeah, pretty much.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: Hey, how good did Fiji play in that last game?
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: That was... They came to play. Literally, their first set
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: of six, they had a bit of a shift to
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: the right edge and like made a half break. I
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: was like, holy, these lads are on. They're ready to play.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: And like, like, pushed Australia to be better.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: And that's what I mean. Like, you know, the way
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: it's been spoken about is like, oh, you know, do
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: you feel like you should be disappointed in your game?
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: And all this bullshit. I'm like, no, no.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: We should be praising Fiji.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: They just showed up. They just proved that they're getting better.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: All the money that's going towards their juniors and just
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: the footy in Fiji, it's worth it. It's working and
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: it's worth it. And, I love that and that's what
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: I love about it. This is showing the World Cup
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: is just getting, it's going to get better and the
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: more that we can help and fund, you know, help
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: fund other countries to better the rugby league there, it's
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: going to work. It's going to be worth it and
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: I'm so happy to see the score.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I'm really glad that we've been playing the Pacific Championships
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: at the end of each season for the last couple
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: of years because I really think this is where we're
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: seeing the benefits right here, right now and we spoke
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: about At the start of the World Cup. The Fiji,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: they've got a young team as well. They're only building
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: and trying to get better. And, yeah, there's some genuine
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: pathways there for them now. But they brought it to Australia.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Didn't they? Big time.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: And that was without Kick Out and without Tui.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Kamakamita. So you take those two players out.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Of any team. And Montoya, who's played with them previously
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: as well. So he's played in the centres and on
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: the wing. And, again... He's a senior player. He retired
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: this year as well because of medical issues.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I looked at the stats because I was on a
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: plane the whole time. I landed and.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: I went, wait, what? So I looked at.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: The stats because I'm like, okay, just in case it
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: was one of those ones where Australia completed the same.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: It's 87% each, 50% possession. Errors, it was similar, I believe.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: And they beat them in line breaks, offloads, running meters, everything.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Just up the middle.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Australia beat them in all those areas.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Oh, right. Yeah, yeah.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Fiji just turned up. They played good footy. And it
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: wasn't one of those cases where Australia played bad. You
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: can't say that.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: No.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Because if everyone goes by stats, which is what everyone does,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: that has no idea about the game.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Stat-wise, they should have. Won easily.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, I was so happy to see that scoreline.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: New Zealand got a little scare against Cook Islands.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: And then they didn't.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: With a few intercepts, but then that sorted itself out.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I can't even think of it. Two intercepts, I
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: think it was. That young follower that played for the
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Cook Islands, I really feel bad because I can't even
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: recall his name. But he has a fantastic highlight sheet
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: when it comes to intercepts. He's almost... perfected the art
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: of intercept so played in the Queensland Cup this year
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: and what a great opportunity and a privilege for him
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: to represent his country but he went out against New
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Zealand and was like I'm just going to show up
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to do my job for my team
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: and New Zealand would have been going oh hell what's
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: happening so.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah it shows it when you Esan.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Esan yeah because it was.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: In Q Cup.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Being in the Q Cup he was in a good
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: system opportunities to learn the game play with bigger players
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: and guys that you know the class of rugby league
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: that we have in Australia goes back there and it
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: shows like you see a difference between him and a
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: few other people that probably hadn't played NRL not that
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: all of them hadn't but he showed that with the
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: opportunity that he's had it's worked so again it goes
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: back to spread it like spread the money out like
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: let's let's help let's try and make this game what
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: they wanted to be they wanted to be a global
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: game or as global as we can so.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: And speaking of you'd have to say um you know
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: with the with the chiefs coming png will be the
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: next of those teams ready to lift to the top
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: tier yeah yeah um so they're playing friday night footy
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: taking on england png uh england.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Of favorites pretty solid favorites.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah it should be favorites in that one i think
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: um england uh first game probably try to find their
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: feet a little bit yeah um but yeah second game
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: a little bit easier for them but.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: They won like they won the way they should have
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: yeah and i think we spoke about it before it
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: started but a team like england i don't think they
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: got they would have got to play a lot of
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: football together and even against each other is is also
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: the hard part like Their games, they've been brought together.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Like you got, you know, the Super League and then NRL.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: A few guys from the NRL, yeah.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Very different, I guess, style or like the way the
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: games go. So like speed of them and all that.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: But after the first game, the second game, they looked
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: like they had, there was a lot more connections and
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: won that game the way we all expected. And I really,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: I think they could be a threat in this.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: In this competition. I really... If we come up against them,
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: I hope we don't think it's going to be not
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: an easy game, but one that they think, oh, we're
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: going to be favourites. We should definitely win this game.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: There's going to be a hard game and they're going
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: to bring it. So we've got to play good footy.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: So I'm expecting them to win well again. And if
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: they do, I think it's going to really shake up
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: their World Cup.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, bookies have got them at $ 1. 02 England, so pretty
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: much unbackable.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: But it's, again, like P & G, they can honestly
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: put on a good performance. Yeah, for the first 20,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: if they get it wrong, P & G can have
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: it their way.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: This would be a better test for it to see
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: how Australia are going because Fiji are going to take
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: on New Zealand on Saturday. So if they do the
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: same type of performance... Actually, if they do the same
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: performance against New Zealand, do you reckon a similar scoreline?
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I think they'll learn again. We just gave
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: a red hot crack and look at that. Let's do
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: it again. And what comes with that is just that
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: little bit more confidence and it could be closer.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: And then on the flip side, if like, and I
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: don't want to be disrespectful to the Cook Islands, but
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: if Australia don't win by, you know, I'm just throwing
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: numbers out, by 100.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Like, It just shows that we're not quite where we
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: need to be from an execution point of view at
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: the end of the day. So I think this is
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the last round game before we head into semifinals. So
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: we need to make sure. And this guy's playing for positions.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: That's it combinations they've got to make sure they're nailing.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: It yeah yeah because when we get to the semis
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: and the final like there's not going to be a
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: lot of changes going forward from that point on so.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: You want to talk about a team that bats above
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: like Cook Islands tiny population yeah they go so hard
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: yeah you know for the pool they've got yeah.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: And that's what I mean like if you you know
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: the more we can get over in the Q Cup
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: or whatever it just it just grows the game and
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: then you know Four years' time, who's to say they
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: can't be doing what Fiji's doing?
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I do want to say probably the game of
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: this weekend for... for the World Cup is Tonga Samoa.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Oh!
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: They reckon that it's sold out.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: That's going to be so good.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: At Combank Stadium, it's sold out.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: I reckon there'll be three-plus million people watching that on
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: TV too. That'll be so good.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: It's going to be absolutely epic. Oh, the start.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: What do you call them?
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: The war? Yeah.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: War dancers. Oh, they're going to be so excited.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: Do you reckon they'll go, you do one and they
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: do one or they do them at each other?
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know. No, it's each.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: It's one each?
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Bit of mutual respect. So I think whoever is classed
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: as the home team, I think they get to pick
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: whether they want to go first or second. That's going
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: to be so good. I know. It is so good.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: And that's the last game on Sunday.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: The first game on Sunday is actually going to be
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: a really interesting game too because you've got Lebanon, France.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And they both got me pumped the whole time.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: See where these guys are. You know, there's been a
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: few guys I've been impressed with for that Lebanon team.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: They kind of... They hung in there to the best
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: of their ability last weekend too. And then kind of
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: got blown out in the end by Tonga. But, you know, France, again,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: like absolutely pumped by 82-0 last week against England. So, yeah,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: this would be a nice competitive game for them. Just
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: to kind of, hey, let's try and crack a win
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: before we, you know. hang around in Australia for another
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: week afterwards.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: Uh, another thing that's been big in the news this week,
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: Sam Walker hasn't been, well, his, his contract, he got
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: offered a great deal, uh, for most people.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Uh, from the roosters. Awesome deal, yeah. Um, $ 4 million deal. Yeah.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Said, I want to look around. I want to think
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: about it. Deal got taken off the table. Do you
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: think that means it's, it's done with the roosters?
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: There's so many like, well, that, that deal's done.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: That deal's done. But do you think that means he's
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: done with the roosters?
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Well, well, I just, I don't know, you'd be the same.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: And then everyone blows up, oh, leave it on the table, blah, blah, blah.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: But no, that's loyalty. They've shown loyalty by offering a deal.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: And it's a good deal. It's a good deal.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong. with what they've offered. So, you know,
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: you go looking elsewhere, well, then they're going to be like, well,
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: you're not loyal to us. So, see you later.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I think at the end of the day, people need
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: to know and understand and realize that he's a hot
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: commodity at the moment.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: And.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Clubs are a business, but players are a business too.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: And they've got to know and understand that you have
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: a finite career. It doesn't last forever. Make as much
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: money as you can because the club and the game
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: will use you up as much as possible. They'll chew
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: you up and spit you out when you leave. So
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: if you can get some money on the way through,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: bloody take it.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Can't hide behind managers either.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: No.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: The reason why I say this is.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: You want to have your, it's, you want it to go, like,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: you want to control the narrative for who, like, what is,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: what comes out about you. So, come out and say,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: I appreciate the club, but I'm going to look elsewhere.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: Whether that's in NRL or whether it's not. Like, just
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: do that. Like, stop, I'm sick of him hiding behind
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: or vice versa. If your manager's doing something you don't like,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: stand up and do it because he works for you.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Not the other way around. Like, And if there was
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: some mixed communication, like, stand up, come out.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: So you'd like Sammy to come out and say, hey,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: this is what's happening at the moment. I didn't get
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: the deal that I would have liked at the club.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: I love the Roosters. I'm one of the premiers there. But,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm looking to get some money.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Because I'm looking at my future.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: Our game, it's, you know, tomorrow, you know, Nothing happened,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: but he got a serious injury. Anything can happen, right?
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: So come out, silence all the crap. Come out and
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: just own it. Done, because you're in a World Cup.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Don't let anything be in the background.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: You know what I love when these stories come out
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: is the hearsay, and this is what's going to happen,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: and this is the deal.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: I love the sources. Yeah.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: All the sources. And then Tommy Dearden's going to swap
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: with Sammy, and then Sammy Walker's going to go to Cowboys.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Tommy Dearden's going to go to the Roosters.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Sammy Walker's apparently going to come to the Bronx. Where's
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: the cash? And we need six halfbacks, do we?
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: My Lord. F.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: Let's talk hypothetical. Let's say Broncos have the cash. Okay,
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: we've got the cash. And you can buy... And he's available. So, obviously,
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Sammy's available. Tommy Dearden's available. And Izzy Couture is available.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: And you've got the money to pay for any of them,
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: but only one of them. Who do you take?
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Do you have to?
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: You don't have to take any of them.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: I would love to have Tommy Dearden to have never left.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: If you want me to be honest, but.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: He also had to leave to get the career that
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: he wanted.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: And that's exactly right. He's gone and made.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: And he had to leave Boralaba, mate.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Imagine if I was stuck there.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Carving up for the Panthers.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: If I have to pick one, I'd say that I
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: wish Tommy never left.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Because if I'm honest, I feel like Tommy suits the
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: style of Ezra.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: They work.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: But the halves we have there now, I'm pretty happy with.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: I feel like they all complement each other well.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: I feel like Peasant... He actually showed a lot of
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: growth this year, at the start of the year when
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: he was playing. And Duffy, he surprised me. He really did.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: I think he could be a really great talent and
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: have a good career. And I think they complement. Hopefully
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Ezra is a 5'8 and can find form. And if
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: he does, I think those two halves really complement him well.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: So I don't think we need him. I think we
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: need to trust what we've got. But if I had
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: to pick, it would have been Tommy just because I
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: wish he never left.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: What about the club then? Do you think what club
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: needs and will be able to afford Sammy?
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think they're going to.
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: Oh, which club?
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: Which club?
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow. Can any afford him?
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Like imagine what that would do. Imagine what that would
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: do for Perth. If they start with a Premiership winning halfback.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Who's got eight years ahead of him, hasn't he? If
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Perth could nail him, that would change everything about Perth.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Wouldn't it?
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: And they've probably got the budget more than anyone else.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know who else would have a budget. Yeah.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: And I look at, I don't know, I feel like
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: clubs now, yeah, you know, he's on the market, but
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: A lot of clubs, they know what their teams need.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: If you've got a Reece Walsh and an Ezra, it
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: probably doesn't suit that style. I don't know if we
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: need another off-the-cuff player. As great of a half and
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: a square up, I don't think we need one. I
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: don't think it'll suit the other $ 3 million we've got
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: put up And other players. I think it's one of
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: those things where you'll have to make it work.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: I don't think you want that. So it's one of those, yeah,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: he's a guy that just turns a game on its head.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: But we've got those. We've got two or three of
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: them already.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: And Hudson Young's in a similar situation with Canberra. It
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: looks like he said, I want to talk to PNG first.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: And Canberra's taken the deal. So it looks like PNG's
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: his only option now.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: That's for long. Yeah.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: It's that loyalty thing. I like it. I actually, I
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: appreciate clubs doing it.
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Because, you know, you get offered from the club, you
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: want to stay at and be, and it's a good deal.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: Like you can't say 1.1 isn't a good deal.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. If it was a, if it was a
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: bad deal and they're trying to, you know, pay you under,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: he's a representative player at the end of the day.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: If it was 600?
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I'd be like, fair enough. 100% go look.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: You know you're worth more.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: It's not 1.1.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: If that's me, I'm like, yep, Loyalty, you've shown that in.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: The contract that you're being respectful enough to give me.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: But this is what PNG's done to our game. But
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: it is. And as much as I want them in,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: and I do, but this is just what's happened.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: It's unsettling. It's hard for any... any club, any manager
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: to negotiate now because that's always going to be playing
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: in the background.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because they worked out that him getting offered 900
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: in PNG is worth 1.6 at home.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Because of the tax breaks. So no one's going to
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: give that to a second round.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: No. Or anyone. No, not at all. Yeah. So... Yeah.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: All right, let's put together a same game multi. Actually,
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: some of these have been huge because of the blowouts.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: So you can.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: You can pick any time try scorers. Let's go the
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: England game, England PNG.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: I'm going to go for a double.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: A double?
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: I reckon we've got to go doubles for value.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: AJ Brimson, double.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: I'm Dom Young for a double. So it's on you, Sammy.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Who do you like? I was just trying to have
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: a look at where some of these tries were scored
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: last week from Sam Moore. against PNG. And there was
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: a couple through the middle. So I might just go
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: a single, but I might go one of the bigger boys. Yeah. Yeah,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: go forward maybe.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: Well, I saw that Mikey Lewis, who's actually playing off
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: the bench, he scored two or three against France.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: I don't like it when they've scored a double the
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: week before that. Yeah, yeah.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Like a Radley or a Thompson.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, Radley's on the bench.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but he scored at least one.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Against France? That's actually not a bad call. I'm going
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: to go with Victor Radley off the bench. Okay. Because
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: he might have some good odds against him either as well.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: So Victor Radley and then Brimson and Young for doubles.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And 13 plus.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: Yes, plus England.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: 13 plus. It'll have to be more than 13 plus.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: 13 plus I don't think is a market.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: What's the line? And then who's the kicker? Isn't it George?
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: Is it?
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Who kicks for him? Oh, no, Hugo Savala.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, does Hugo kick?
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, okay. Even have Hugo Savala for eight plus points. Yeah, well, yeah.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: I think he got seven out of eight or something
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: like that, or better.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a great kicker. Yeah, he's a good kicker. Yep. Righto.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: All right, there's your multi. Now, let's talk boxing because
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: there's the big fight.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Gal and Nelson coming up.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: I think it's next Friday.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Big bad Nelly from Welly.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Versus G-Train.
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: And there's some good trash talk. And Gal's got it,
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: hasn't he? Building up the hate before a game.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Throughout his whole league career, he was the guy that
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: was to sell the games. I think he's even come
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: out and admitted this, that the NRL paid him at
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: one stage to hype up Queensland, call them two heads
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: and all this type of stuff. He got paid because... Apparently,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: through the eyes of Deanna Rowland, that state of origin
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: was dying because he just kept on beating them year
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: in and year out. Right. Yeah, he's good at it. Yeah.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: He does.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: And that's why he's got to sell the fight. But
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: I love he backs every fight up.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's the one thing you know about Gal.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: He ain't training and he ain't doing it half-assed.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: He's doing it properly. I'll say this. I think Nelson
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: has bitten off more than he can chew. He has fought.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Jared Wallace. Jared Wallace, yeah. Who was not.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: I don't think he trained much.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Nah, you could see he hadn't trained much. Nah, he's J-Wall.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: He can take a hit in footy, but not like
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Nelson in a boxing ring.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: There's not a lot of guys that he's fought that
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: are at the standard of Paul Gallen. Now, where I
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: gained my respect for Gallen in the boxing ring was
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: when he fought Justice Hooney. Yep. And he got caught
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: in the last round because he was copping too much
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: punch at the end. But he, like.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: He gave it, yeah.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Red Hot Crack. Red Hot Crack.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: And when you get a bit, I think he earned
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: respect that day too. And I feel like when you
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: can earn respect from boxers.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: A real boxer.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: A real boxer. I think you've done a good job.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: And I think that's what Gal, I don't know, I've
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: never asked him, but I feel like that's why he
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: wanted to do it. Because I felt like he mastered
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: both sports. You could honestly say that.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: I really could.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: Well, he's come out and said Nelson. He said, Nelson,
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: you're a quitter. You quit rugby league and you're going
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: to quit in the ring.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: In the ring. Yeah. Oh, good on you, T-Track.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: Well, if I'm honest, I feel like, you know, Gal
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: would have that little fitness edge on him.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what's that next Friday? He's aging. He's an older body.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: How old is he?
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: Is he 50 yet, gal?
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: Nah, not yet. He looks 50. He does. Is he
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: not 50? He would feel 50. Nah, nah, he's mid-40s.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: 47.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: But his knees and stuff.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Not far off 50, mate. I didn't say it because
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: I thought you were an old, but.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Well, you called him old, though. You did. Kipped, didn't you? Yeah. Yeah.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: But yeah, his knees aren't as good as they used
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: to be. So he hasn't been doing a lot of
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: long running stuff. Okay. I know he's been getting.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Stand to live a gal.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: He's been getting some guys in that are really, really
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: tall timbers to do some sparring. I didn't get the
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: phone call. Yeah, I saw that. Nelson's a lot taller.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: I would have said no. Yeah, he's been training the house. Oh,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: he would.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: The most likely option, if Nelson's going to win, is
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: just going to need to make contact with one of
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: those big swings.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Nelson wins, it's third round.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you now, Gal can take a punch. Yeah,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: oh yeah. Yeah, yeah. I go back to that Justice
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Hooney fight. Gal said, I've never been hit like that before.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: And he goes, and he did. He just kept on
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: coming forward and trying to find his shots. Yeah, I
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: do remember that. Yeah.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: Well, mate, I'd hate to get hit by Justice Hooney too.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I'd hate to.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Get hit by a real boxer.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: I'd hate to get hit by Justice Crew.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: But okay, here's one for you. Who wins and how
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: do they win?
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: G-Train wins, big overhand right, round two. Works the body.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: And actually, it's going to be a body shot and
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: it's going to be a TKO. You reckon? Yeah, round two.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: I'll go Nelson in an upset.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: I reckon Nelson's going to clock in one.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: He's going to swing big and he's going.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: To clock in.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: You just want Gal to punch it, don't you?
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: No. I reckon Nelson can do it.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: And I need your protection, Nelson.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Gal. Gal's the outsider. Yeah, he's favourite, Nelson. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Okay.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Big Nelly from Welly. I don't think he deserves your favourite,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: but he is.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: It'd be a draw.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: Is there such a thing?
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Pick someone, mate.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Well, I've been hit by Nelson in footy.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: It really hurts. And that wasn't a point.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: It was just a tackle.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Five, four, three.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: I said it for a joke, so I'll go Nelson
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: third round.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: All right. All right. There you go. I love you, girl.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Proper knockout.
