Every game day you show up for your team. Now it's your time. We go, we go, we go, we go. Ask your prescriber about Wigovie, some Maglatide Injection 2.4 milligrams, a G.O.P.1. Call 1-8-3-3-4 Wigovie or visit Wigovie.com to view the Medication Guide and to learn more about Wigovie. Why wait? We go, we go. Where you stay, Hilton, for this day.

You do say it, Pukana? No, it's just 100% commitment or nothing. Maybe you get some energies to show guys on. I've got plenty of energy, mate. Just a little bit disappointed in the wires, you know, let a golden opportunity slip, you know, that week off so important. What went wrong, James? I didn't watch the game, so. I was driving home, I was up with the father and the four of his birthday. So I was following it. I was following it online and I watched the highlights to see what happened, but yeah. We'll get into it. That's a teaser, right away. We'll break it right here. So there's six teams left, we started with 17. Now there's six. That's crazy. Pick that up. That's breaking it. Six left. Six. Yeah, thank you guys. Next week, they're probably before you reckon.

Let me look into it. I'll come back to you on that. Lost your chat through in the show. Obviously we're going to take a little look back at the four finals. It took place. Couple of upsets. We'd have to say, wouldn't we? Then we'll take a little look forward to the two finals this weekend. We'll chat to you, Toby. In a moment, there'll be Latsy Statsy. Have you got a few hot Statsys for us? I do, obviously. A man Middleton hasn't put his stats up on an arrow dot com, so much I care about his podcast, Weak Off, Coming, and I've got a stat which for the wilds fan doesn't read well. Okay, good taste. Tags, CBT? No, just a bit of Googling. Yeah. Okay. So there's going to be positive plays. Popped up on our own. Have you got a Wattif for us, Toby? I got a Wattif for us. Beauty, we got Jimmy's list, the whole gambit. It's going to be absolutely outstanding. What a show we've got on our way. We've got a proffs professional take. We do. Where I make a judgement on a sport I never play. No, I'm happy. Yes, I'll tell you who's good and who's not. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what, Toby, find it out. Oh, yeah, proffs professional. Yeah, you know me, mate. All right, Types, let's start with you.

Go on then. Sharkies. Sharkies. Got it done, but unfortunately for you, you didn't get on the field. Did you get on the field? No, was that tough sitting there and watching them do it or you're all good with it? No, look at it. Like, you obviously is super happy for your team and the guys that you're trained with and bleed, sweat, and cry with, and showers, nude. Back on point. No, look, yeah, it's a conflicting feeling. It's the first time I've sort of been in this position, getting injured at the wrong time. Obviously wasn't in the plan, but it's a bit of a sweet feeling. Like, I just want to see my team do well. I never would wish any ill upon any of them and I love sharing in amongst the joys of victory. But yeah, of course it definitely doesn't feel great not being out there. You know, I've been part of that team now since 2020 and it's about seven years going on. But I'm just doing my best for the team and trying to make sure they can get the best out of me and give some sort of positive idea to all of them. Man, there's a lot of people that will give up a lot of money to have that best view in the house and I had that a lot of my choruses on the bench. Yeah, it's not too bad. You've got a lot of positive ideas, man.

You do. But you do. Do you think that you can see your future in Jerry? Will you impact on that? That team was just happy. It was like a free ticket to the game. Yeah, what? Yeah, what? At what average in 45 off the bench? No, no, no. 45? What? No, no, no. 2014 and 15, I was playing the same if not more than the start and problems. I actually had an idea. When did you debut 2009? Yeah. And when did you retire? So from 0.9 to 13, I played 50 games. It took me a while to get going. Okay. When did you retire? Nineteen. Nineteen. So that's 11 years and for three of them you're playing. Yeah, but that's more than the starters. Every other game I've still averaged in each minute. No, wait. It's a great pro. So from 9 to 13, you played 50 games. Yeah. And then you didn't get injured for 30 minutes. You didn't get injured for the game after that. Yeah, you wouldn't have. Yeah. Well, just so we know, we allowed to make fun of you or you wanted to make fun of you. It's hard to get in here. I might take a piss out of myself.

Right. Because then he just instant me down. And here he gets in to me about my boxing. Yeah. On this fight card that I'm fighting on next Saturday shout out our prevents, there was an opportunity come up where they needed a boxing. There was, but guess what? They needed a city boy. No, but Jimmy Maloney. Born raised in Orange. Central West user. Well, it's country. Sorry. You played for the coach. I turned it into Broncos being versus Broncos. I didn't want it. No, Knuckles Texman goes with mine. He do it. I go, he's a coach. No, we didn't say anything to me. Would you do it? Hey, I'm going to do it. They wouldn't have for me 100 grand as well. They wouldn't have for me 100 grand. If they give me 100 grand, no worries. But I tell you what, to go fight one of them bush boys, country vakes. Oh, shit. No. He didn't last year's well. He didn't last year's well. Shit, no. No, no. No, no. You're not out of anyone. Yeah. You don't mess with country folk. No, you're not. You're not country Jimmy. Exactly, you don't mess with me. Hey, you heard it. You don't mess with me. Well, I did claim Orange was central coast. What do you claim? Well, I was born raised in Orange and then I moved when I was, like, I played under nine so they moved when I was ten. Central Coast is country, though, is it?

Is it sort of rate? It's been a terrible? In terms of, um, it's like bond on. Well, it's sort of like Latsy claims country and he's on the coast of Port McCormack. My dad was a horse shiner and I had cattle. I used to cut the horses balls off. You can say that. You can go to the horses. No, you can't do that. Yeah, you can't do that. Yeah, you can't do that. Yeah, you can't do that. Yeah, you can't do that. No, no, no. Oh, let's get this bastard back on track. No, I'm going to wrestle it for that. Nice blinters, the segment that's taken the ball back. You know how it works for us? Well, it's not, it's like, don't sit on the fence. It's not all about you, Jeremy. Oh, I felt because we're having a nice revenge. So I've had him my wife. I love that. That's all right. No, it's pretty simple. I'm going to shoot some hardcore questions at you. You know, sit on the fence. Keep it pretty brief because we'll actually dig into the games a bit harder. Okay. A bit later on. Okay. But I want you to pick a side here. Right. Rooster Sharks. Sharks. Who wins? Sharks. Easily? No, not easily.

It's going to be. Sharks, man. It's going to be really hard game. Sharks, okay. Jimmy. Oh. We two clubs. Jimmy Laney Cup, one of them. Ah, um. Do you know what? Oh. I think Roosters. Roosters. Oh, Roosters. There we go. Devon A. Sharks. Aliens is like their home game now. They had a massive turnout last week. And I'm sure they'll get heat small this week. Up the Sharks. We'll get to the crowds a bit later. What did you do for your dog? No, that was a fin shark. Yeah. That's fin shark. It was higher. No, I should've told it on the podcast before having an argument. I think he created his heart. Yeah. I've heard so. But my husband started to become a world he's, I asked. No, I asked when they first told me that, like, you know, that I invented it. I said, well, where's the world? I should've paid him. We've had the shark. Because remember that I said, I, but I invented the salaries from Barra. Oh, you did too. Yeah. And I haven't got anything for that. Sorry, fans. Sorry, everybody. Uh, who's the sailor? Warrie is nice. Who wins and why? Quick and a lens. I'm coming to you this time, Jerry.

Warrie is nice this week. Mate, I feel like the night's going to take that confidence to last week. Uh, over into the game in New Zealand. And my latsy statsy, I'm bringing it early. Oh, no, don't, mate. Save it. You got yourself that, what else you got? What else you got? What else you sent me for? For the show. Exactly. So Jimmy and Czech, yeah. No, no, no, no. That's a good second tease. That's right there in the seat now. I'm just going to the ninth. Okay, I'll take the confidence in. Okay. And you'll hear later why. Wow. Jimmy, powerful. Up the wires. Okay. Wow, there'll be an impact. Who's sad, who can I? Why is there a bad smile? Who's sad? I think the war is too much class. I'll be burning from last week. The North has done so well to get this far. I'm a ruling amount to have a long out was when both deans went down. That was a very quick turn. All right, well, dig into a bit deeper later on. That's good. Nice. But, dolphins, will you tip them for the premiership yet? Will you now say that yes, they can win the premiership? I think everyone's already said they can. Everyone's always sort of said that they can win.

Well, I mean, when I said who's going to win it, nobody years at dolphins. No, no, it's true. That's true. They can't win it. Do you have to do dolphins? No, I don't know, but I just don't think they can win it. I don't think they'll beat Penraff. Anyone north of the border doesn't want it. Well, I just stayed at, I thought it was between wires and Penraff. Now I think Penraff of pretty much a lock with the week off. You know, if you want me to take it. No, no. Do dolphins can't win it? You, Jimmy, you can't win it. No, they make it in a two-horse race. They're a chance. But yeah, I think they do. Well, breaking news if they make it in a two-horse race, they're a chance. No way. He's on you to that. Bring it on. Bring it on. Maybe they'll win the grandforn. We'll be right back. They can win. They can win if they make the grandforn. It's something that's between you two during the week. He's right on you to that. I don't know. No, I just saw it. That was like classic, like stayed in the office. You know what? If they make the grandforn, they're a chance. Oh, fucking. Is that not... I've got to be more gentle and take a side. No, I was just seeking, like, obviously they're a chance.

You two are so big chance. That's the splinters right up your anus there, mate. I want... Can the dolphins win the grandforn? Yes, they can. Yes, they can. Yes, they can. They can. No, they can. They can. Because they've kind of been under the radar the whole time. Like Christian Wolf, I don't even know his story. What is he come from? What's he done? He's called Bremens, his brother's in a boxing ring. He has a mad boxer. Easy. He looks tough. He was over at St. Helens. But he was over here before he left somewhere, wasn't he? Was he at Bremens or...? No one knows his story. See, he's like a new gen. Bocin, a great brosie tense. No, the Wolf, brothers coached. I think tweed back in the day. One was at the dragon, Ben. Yeah, he was at the dragon, but before then he was at tweed. Because he coached one mate back then. I asked the walkers. No, he did again. Next question. See, I'm telling you. He's failing. He's failing. He's failing. Pantas. What a be out of them. Can anyone stop them? Jimmy, I know your answer. I already go. Yeah, no, I think they win. That's it, game over. Because I will be putting money on them consistently.

Okay. You can't talk with one or another. Sorry, do we know what the recap is on Cleary? Because if he's not in the team, he's a hard winner. He got off, so he can play, but then he's got this stress. Is it a stress fracture? It's a stress. I don't know that I know, but he'll be right. He'll ice it up. I'll do everything again if it's a little bit sorely or play through it. People will be playing footcies with him when he gets on the field. And then he gets off the field. Oh, will that be stomping on the foot? Yeah. Is that what you do? That's crazy, man. You would do that. You would. Of course. What would you do? You would for sure. I would do not if he got his chance. You know what, after the Broncos did him in that pre-leam. I think it was a pre-leam. I reckon, yeah. It's possible. It's possible. Yeah, I wouldn't have thought last year it would have been, but after that I'd been last year. Broncos getting it done. I can say the dolphin's doing it. I can say shocks. I can say the rooster's. I can say shock. Anyone who has any even day can do it. Every game day you show up for your team.

Now it's your time. We go. We go. Ask your prescriber about Wigovie, some Maglatide Injection 2.4 milligrams, a GOP1. Call 18334Wigovie or visit Wigovie.com to view the Medication Guide and to learn more about Wigovie. Why wait? We go. We go. College football is back. So Hilton called to me the superstition concierge to make your fan rituals a reality. Need a room to match your lucky number? We got you. Want to make sure our team doesn't wash your lucky jersey? Oh, that smells lucky. Hilton's unmatched hospitality can keep up with any superstition. Even a marching bandwicker call at 555 and 55 seconds. Hit it! When you need a team that will do whatever it takes on game day, it matters where you stay. Hilton, for this day. I think there are shades of Bronco's last year with the dolphins in terms of, you know, they've got some attacking threat.

Hema was pretty quiet until he shot into actions with that, given that lab in Windburn. He's just dynamite when he's in the clear and they do have that backline he's dynamite to watch. Good for. Good for, good for. Good for. Good for. Good for men. Do you reckon he gets that space butt against the North? Probably not but. Like that. Like an audience eat all but from an understanding. Obviously Warriors were down to 11 at one point, which took some juice out of him and that. Yeah, that back row, he'd been disappointed because on that kick chase, like he just needed to keep him on his hand. needed to keep him on his inside. He had the ball had come across. He had inside support and he just got caught. Because I think he was that three-minute, he was that three-minute, not four-minute, because I think the half was out of the line. So I remember I saw ET. Yeah, but even that was, because he had a winger outside. So the center sort of, center was a little bit behind on the kick chase. He looked like he was pedaling a little bit and went to sort of no one. Like there was just, obviously, a breakdown in communication, but I don't know if he'll,

I don't know if he gets that space against the pen roof or the third one. So you're a current, you're a current player. Did any of that make sense to you? I don't make sense, but after he started going three-man, four-man, like I know what that means, but like I just can't, just like, shut up. Just like three-man, four-man, really irrelevant. Because you only got three, three-that twice. You said it twice. Why not, one or two-man? Yeah, I get you. I just like, I understand what they mean, but it's just like, I don't know, just tackle them. It's great, you know, fair out, you know, watch who's in the list. It's fantastic. Do you know what the three-man means? So it's a three-man, the four-man, where you're standing in the defensive line. Yeah, I got it. All right, very good. Best performance of week one. I just want one player, standout player, did it for his team, was good to watch. Yes, Toby, you go first, yes, go. Siftelequide. Okay, very good. It's a massive. He was in the same game. He was so good. Yeah, running hard, people couldn't put him down. Post-contact made is just, you can't hit him. There's no way to hit him without hurting yourself. So I can't wait to play him for the Bears next year. It's going to be fun. So he played middle-eyed, because so he's going to try out what? Yeah, Katal went off. He went with the HIA and then Sifte played

his natural position in the center. He grew up playing center and his whole life. And then, score to try, went back off for the HIA, come on in the middle and just was destructive. So I want to give it to my man, Siftelequide. Shots if, all done. I'll go a different game. Mate Dillard was here, freak. Yeah. He was a normal smite, and he does it every week. It's crazy. Man, he carries on that. Like, it was a chewed off. I had a couple of big ones like Siftelequide's houses like the back, diffusing kicks and they're unbelievable. Shout out Tyson Pizzelli. We're on the clock back on the weekend. They're out Siftele, Lucas and Trey Mooney. And he had a bloody blinder. 36 and getting better. Shout out to Trues. I got a Kalimponger. 285 meters just dominated. Even the trail post match was like KP, your elite. My gaze was good too. Yeah, it was good. That battle was good. Yeah, it's good old-fashioned old Opelberg's, Youngbull, Nags and Trail.

That was a cracker of a, um, cracker of a... Well, let's do it. Let's dig a bit deeper. Obviously, Bunnies 10 lost to the Nights 20. I guess for the Bunnies, they were favorites going in. We had that clash between Gagoy and Trail. A Nights, unbelievable. How fucking they go. B Bunnies for a star-studded side should they be a bit worried? About that result? I do. I just think the... The danger with CS was always that I think they prefer and they're a lot better on a stop-start game. And when you get to the back end and the ref, sort of blows left poundies and it's end to end, um, I think Newcastle, you know, throughout the year, like you said, they've been really good at getting me on the ball and getting their shape on and moving the ball. I'm still surprised how passive they defended on the edge. Like, sides had just kept giving Caleb Pong a time on those edges, it's more on what blowing,

how they just keep sitting back and letting him dictate to them. Um, yeah, I think this week, I would expect the Warriors to be a lot more, um, positive on their edge defense against Ponga there. Um, yeah, Gags and the Trail was a massive... matchup, but, yeah, unfortunately. Yeah. That was crazy and so, like, genuinely. Well, I was sitting there listening to you talk, just going like... Yeah, half-way. They were passive and then defense and they like a stop-start game and I'm just going like, what do you watch to be able to say that? He wouldn't watch that. The footy. Yeah, I know. I know what you're saying. It's like Jimmy Sees through the matrix. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's more fierce and we're just trying our best to keep up. Yeah, and he's taking the blue pill. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not the blue one, that gives you an erection. Yeah. That's the red pill. Is the red pill? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, did you see it like that? Let's see. Yeah, I just, obviously, everyone's picking the rabbit-o's going into the game,

but there's no expectation on the nights and, you know, Justin Hobb looks down a really good job up there with that squad and, yep. Um, you know, they do have some real attacking thread out wide, but, you know, to be missing through four of their best players, you know, Duel Brown on top of them forwards, I mentioned. And Lucas. Yeah, Lucas is back this week. Is he back? Lucas. Yeah, he's named on the horse. Yeah. He's renamed on the bench, but they don't know whether he'll play. Yeah, that's cool. Oh, that was a pretty bad injury hat, wasn't it? Yeah, his foot was back to front, wasn't it? He's going to play with his foot back to front through the... That's impressive, man. Straight up. He's going to run. Well, because his back to front, he's set up putting the left boot on. And he just wears two rights and it's all a counteract. And then you're on backwards and he's faster. And then they don't know, because he'll probably crabwalk. Yeah. They know if he's going forwards or backwards, so you'll just slip through the gaps like that. And then you'll start defencing, fuck off. Why don't you defend the guy running sideways? I don't know, man. But I think... Well, I've crabbing through the line. I love crabs. Good luck, some of that. Yeah, true. Guilty penicillin. But the worries will be up for this clash.

You know, they're doing the... You're doing the... Oh, I think you're a foyer today, Lacey. Jesus, the warriors will be up. Can you jump in? No, we watched. Ravano's going up for the clash. They were. They were. They didn't walk her out. Was a big cause. Yeah, that was half way through the game. Yeah, that should've been up. It should've been up. It should've been up. It should've been up really. I agree, that should've been up already. Yeah, that one. James. Oh, Jimmy knows everything about it long now. Yeah. But yeah, look. Can they be on the back? Or do they go out in straight sets? So was. That'd be... You know, Newcastle go over there. Yeah, we won't even go to Pocana. So you don't even have belief in people going over there. Pocana. Pocana. But yeah, look, it's going to be a great clash. I think they've moved this to the Sunday as well. Day's home, 40. But will a big, great clash. If the worry is on up for it? I don't know if they're going to be. We'll see. We'll see. We'll see. When they have to get into the clash. Because the worry is why they'd be up for it. Well, you know what? They might be up for it because they're playing at Aden Park on the South Hall. It's not going to be down for it. Yeah. All right, can they go to give him some more? Aden Park on the South. You know what? I've got a solution.

Do you need me to have hook-law and seek out? I really thought it was. To ensure they're up for it. Maybe the coach goes around with blue peels and gets everyone up for it. Love it. Well, let's jump onto Warriors Dolphins. Warriors were leading. Then had some trouble. Sin Bens, etc. etc. etc. Dolphins just turned it on. Mr. Insight, you go first. What do you got? What did you see? He didn't see the game. I didn't see the highlights. That's right. Highlights are enough. But, so obviously there's a lot of talk about the penalty goals. Kai was saying, were the penalty goals kicked when they were down on men? Or was it true out? So when they had the Sin Bens? I'll be honest. I was. I was. I was. That happened. Yeah. Were they clearing the penalty goals? Yeah, but were they like that? Obviously on the highlights. They kicked about four penalty goals. Obviously that's a chance to have an attacking set and a price and pressure. Whether they overdid it and went too conservative against the Dolphins side, which is sort of Noah's got points in him. They looked back at probably the Penroth game, you know, against the Roosters, real tight

game. They had a Penroth got a penalty. Was it just after? It was like 12 all. And they could have went 14. No, before half time, that was just when it happened. And they kicked out and they went for the try and just played a lot more positive. I think, you know, as I said, without the tarred, without watching the whole thing, but from looking at what happened and how it turned out. And it's always hindsight in it, you know, like obviously if the Warriors scrape home and win a tight game, then you go, oh yeah, you know, they are tick and over the scoreboard. But I think, you know, to go up by two or go up by eight, you can understand. But to constantly go, I think they probably miss the opportunity to just apply a bit more pressure on the Dolphins and make them defend the goal line, which is going to take more out of them in the back end of the game. Well, sorry, I'll watch the game. And I just feel like, you know, the attack for the Wars across the season, you know, they were creating a lot of opportunity, but I don't feel like they were creating a lot of opportunity.

And that's why I think they did take the penalties. I don't know. I don't know if the, because them two boys are Mr. Bitterfooti, haven't they? C-H-T and Tomorrow? How many, how much ball did they have down on their line, on the Dolphins line? I was in a par with my out of cover. If you're a star, I don't know. You know, you're not great. No, I'm not great. No, I'm not great. Sometimes they pop it up, like if you're watching. So, yeah, as I said, I didn't actually... Oh, I was down with him for any of it. I did watch it, but I... Yeah, I can't remember any of it. So, in saying all that, where is Eden Park? In Park and All Point. It's where the All Blacks play. But they've moved it, and this is an interesting chart. I was going to get into this with the crowd chats. Yeah. They've moved it because they want to sell more tickets and they will. Yeah, they will. So, it's a bigger stadium, right? Yeah, it's 50,000 or 60,000. Yes. Sorry, but who controls that narrative? Is that the NRL? The NRL? Yeah, the one I said. Did you see Anthony Jelling? You remember Anthony Jelling from New Zealand? He was saying about how, you know, the... the journals and stuff, and, you know, even fans over here talking about the low crowds.

Apparently, you've got to pay for your tickets in the finals. So, obviously, there's a cost of living crisis in Park and a show in New Zealand. And they're... Like, what do you have? 14,000 at your game, 17,000 there. I thought it was 20. No, they were 17,000. Oh, there they are. The... Yeah, but the money... So, that's a cash grab, and you take them away from... The NRL? The Warriors. And that's where my stat will come in later. Oh, what are you? Where they don't have a great record in the park. What are you talking about? Who's got to pay for tickets? As in the fans. Like, they got to pay... Everyone's got to pay because... It's all expensive. Yeah, because your members are for regular season. Because finals are all NRL. Put the pricing down. You put the pricing down. So you can get more fans to that... How much was the ticket? Yeah, we'll... And put this thing up this morning. But put the pricing down. You'll tell me you'll naturally feel more people into the stadium. So how much was the ticket? Yeah, I'll get... So, there was a few mistakes, right? One was probably moving the sharks. Usually so. Because you're against the cowboys. Yeah. The cowboys fans aren't going to travel and sharks fans... Don't.

Well, that's what... What's the point? Like, 17,000, four atmospheres. Like, doesn't... Shark Park hold about 13, 14. Like, chocolates. Yeah. Like, so... You would have been a bit... Aren't you a bit off just pile and that even... Yeah. For an atmosphere. And doing that, but, as I said, it's really... Like, for a long time... For a long time, that sort of... They've brought those rules in. I never even realized until someone mentioned it the other week... That because there was an out of Sydney side... They may have been a chance to play the shark park. Like, that was the rule 2016. Ten years ago, it's been that you've got to be a certain... ...capacity to hold finals games. So, it's been a rule for ages, so... Eight tickets is $650 to the game at Eden Park. Which is a lot of money. But what are they? Are they the minimum or are they... What worries supporters, Bay? I don't know. You need to have the whole story. Well, I guess the worries aren't the problem they are selling out.

Yeah, correct. So, yeah, it's kind of the rest. Then you had $22,000 for Roosters Panthers at Combank, which I guess... Was there? Yeah. But that's at 17. The 17 was there again. Shark's Cowboys. So, I mean, I get it. Panthers are not their home ground. Roosters have got a travel west. What is it? Is it the ticket prices? Is it because it's not travel? I don't understand. I'm pretty sure it's like one factor that no one really talks about... ...is the game is so much better than watch on TV. Well, that's where a lot of our money comes from. Ten television because the game is. And obviously, people don't have the same amount of money to, you know, to get to games and all that with families and stuff. So, that will all contribute. But, you guys have games and flows. Well, funnily enough, Valandies came out this morning and said it's actually 9,000 more than last year for the first round of finals. Yeah, we go. Now, whether or not that's all in Auckland, or whether it's across the board. Yeah. I don't know. There are positive growth. There is positive growth.

Yeah. But... I don't get to get to the negative. One of the big ones like Rooster's Sharks will get a decent crowd. Definitely. Dolefins will go well next week. They'll call some call. There's a call some call. They'll call some call. Like, more easy, fair. Go on, yeah. It'll be sweet. I wonder if the Dolefins... In a park will be fucking massive. Massive. I wonder if the Dolefins will get a decent Broncos contingent. Their team isn't in the finals anymore. I wonder if they'll actually get like a... She was going up. She was going up. I wonder if that'll actually... I wonder if you... I mean, you wouldn't think that like... Rooster's fans had barrack for the bunny sort of thing, but it's a bit different. Like, they just come under the cob. Well, we kind of covered your Sharks, Cam. I think we can move on from that one. But the Panthers Roosters in terms of a game of 40... I think in the commentary, Vossy or someone was saying it was basically the best game of the year. That he had said. It was a cracker. That was a cracker. That was a great game. The Wilds Panthers game that I think Jimmy was up. You know, they can be... Yes, that was right. Yeah. And we agree it was one of the best games. Pretty freaky for Nathan with one leg to kick a field goal. But, you know, we're sorry.

What's going on, 1412? 1912. 1912. That's why I school the drive-in. What about Mark? Mark. Well, he took... Because, you know, early on, he took that intercept right down on the line. Like, got him positioned to shut down. Took the one. And then, obviously, yeah, the one to the Troy. Well, that was... The crams out, juggler, and then get off the ground. Get off as quick as he did. Stunning start off the ground. That's like beach sprints or something. They mean cooked territory. He's got great legs. He's got great legs. They're big and powerful to look at. They are very nice and muscular. Yeah, he has great legs. So, yeah. It'll be a good match up with Ronnie this week. Yeah, yeah. That is a note. You've already gotten spoken around at Tranted? Well, we only had yesterday. We had, like, a hero of you and our recovery day. And we sort of get... We'll get into it a lot more tomorrow. Because I'd say tomorrow we get brought up for you. Surely you've reminded him that he's schooled Ronnie Larsen. I remember we were talking about how much he got school. Surely that's a little... Wait, Ronnie. Remember how you were just a little bitch last night?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. What are you doing? Surely you need to have a go this week, mate. What are you creating me and me and put on his lockout? The reason I want him holding... Yeah, that's a baby. Oh, we'd love to do that. The reason I want to do that is because then Ronnie will turn to me and go, Oh, yeah, well, you're playing this week, and I know how long I was there. Now I'm going to love my little lady. Wearing up to do it. I'm going to do it with some... Now we're going to get the last of you Stacey and we're going to look ahead at the games this week. Oh, people are... Do you want to do one more T-slot or third one? No, no, I did a third one in there before. Do you want to hear me start to you? Oh, okay, alright. We'll do a full one. Thanks for having me. No, Jerry Talks. I... Positive place. Let's go. Every game day you show up for your team. Now it's your time. We go. We go. Ask your prescriber about We Govie, some Maglatide Injection 2.4mg, a GLP1. Call 18334 We Govie or visit We Govie.com to view the Medication Guide and to learn more about We Govie.

Why wait? We go. We go. College football is back. So Hilton called to me the superstition concierge to make your fan rituals a reality. Need a room to match your lucky number? We got you. Want to make sure our team doesn't wash your lucky, Jersey? Oh, that smells lucky. Hilton's unmatched hospitality can keep up with any superstition. Even a marching bandwicker call it 555 and 55 seconds. Hit it! When you need a team that will do whatever it takes on game day, it matters where you stay. Hilton, for this day. My positive place is finals footy in terms of that first week of K. The crowds weren't great in certain things, but the actual games were epic. There was a couple of upsets, a couple of unexpected wins. Like the actual sport to watch the code is absolutely flying. Everybody agree? Well said. And a pro-fuelist. I agree. Oh, heartedly, I agree. So officiating on the weekend, didn't even notice anything with that.

Was that okay? The referees? I saw some of the guys. Positive place. We are in the positive place. Yeah, now I was going to double down the positive. You were supposed to be positive. I think it wasn't happy with the bunker. It was mine, okay. Yeah, he said just cover the bunker. We'll talk about that later. Yeah, not in the positive place. I want you to just, this is your sport boys. This is your chance to pump it up in size. The greatest code in the world. I think it is the best sport ever, man. You know what? I really like how New Zealand is starting to catch onto it. New Zealand has been a completely dominated rugby haven for however long. And I guess it's sort of coincided the rise of the war at Tars with the demise of the old blacks. And I wonder if that's going to be. War at Tars of the Warriors. Sorry. Warriors. I wonder if that'll be a catalyst is to like what's to come in the Northern industry, you know. I think if you compare 35 minutes of ball and play in a union game, international, like that's the top level compared to a finals game in 60 minutes ball and play. So that's 25 more minutes of action and set of like pack and repacking scrum. So on your sort of, on your point about the code being in such a good place, I wonder if Leesit is about to take over.

I'm glad we're on coming up as well and all that. It's all going to be sort of broadcast everyone. I wonder if people will start realizing this sport is so exciting to watch. Well, I think what about, and we're almost discussing this with someone the other week, basically about the opportunity that Lees has right now to put another side in Christchurch or whatever. So rugby, rugby league is obviously dominating rugby union in Australia, which is making the, what's there rugby chart now the super rugby or whatever. But it's making that competition because now the South African sides play in the Europe Cup with France and that. So if you've got all blacks like all your New Zealand sides playing against the Aussie sides and that's not as competitive as it should be. Right. And then you go and there was a start to make really much into New Zealand. Imagine the opportunity that Lees has to put another side in New Zealand, take away.

And then if then you start seeing the demise in super rugby because of lack of competitive nurse against other clubs, think about the new pool of talent that you have to be able to take rugby union kids. Now to come play league, if you're financially, if they can get more money playing league and then rugby union and that now you can start really putting a knife into rugby union and taking all their best juniors that are coming through. I think that's a massive opportunity to take that pool of rugby union juniors. You know, so many of the skills are transferable between the two. So I just think that it's in a massive place to really take advantage of that. And I think that's the other one as well, benefit from a 34 year old coming off contract, sharks prop to sign them for lots of money. Who you talking about? No, I don't know. If the obviously it's remains to be seen how the experimenting person going to be, more after transfer to the cross-chair to be bears in a couple of years.

Yeah, a lot like Jimu San. I love watching the Warriors play. The fans get behind them and you know, all the kids over there, stuff pops up in my algorithm now because I love watching the guys sing the song to me tree for the wires or the kids to sing in like the song and getting around at our school event. So, you know, the fever has taken over. My other worry is what the new flag sheet team of the NRL, this little life. I was going to say to the owners. So I said to the new owners. So who was it? Was Eric Watson got bored out? He was he there? He was the old owner. And I think the guy who bought him out, I was like, I wonder what the value because Warriors Feevays literally go on crazy. Like, so what did the storm just sold part ownership in the NRL for like 200 million or something like that? So, let's talk about a Dutch group or something. Yeah, I'm a tank. But what would the Warriors be worth? You could fight it online, I'm sure.

Like in terms of just their support and their friends. Yeah, what they're doing. Now it's going amazing. Their fans are selling out. Eric and their Jersey sails must be through the roof because they're all the one thing Warriors have always done. He's always had mad jerseys. Like, even playing there. I remember we used to have like four a year because they do like the Heritage One. And then they do like a women in league or whatever. One, they always had good jerseys and they just sell out. They got the best team song. I love that song. What's it? I don't see it. I want you to think I was in there the other week filming it. Check out my name. Okay. Can I just also say that somebody that enjoys both Union and League? Can I make a quick thought? I'll go show soon, man. Just focus on the show. Okay, show is very good, watch it. No, I'm just saying there's room for both. I think there's room for both. It doesn't need to be this whole. No, but I'm not saying there's not, but I'm just saying. You know, like there's a lot of rugby union schools like the private schools that now put scholarships to rugby league kids.

They put them to school. So there's a lot of kids playing in the top 15 or whatever for private schools that are actually on contract to rugby league club. There is, yeah. So, you know, the league's gone, yeah, perfect. You go put them to school and all that. But then surely that affects the production line of rugby union players coming through. If all your kids coming through the top 15, which would normally funnel into union, if they're coming back to league, you know, that's obviously got to have an effect. I thought I was in the talent is so deep now for athletes in both Australia and New Zealand. You've only got 144 super rugby contracts in Australia. You've got 400 NRL contracts every year. I think we can find 544 talented. I just, I know what you're saying. I like, I often worry. I'm going to get absolutely hammered for this in the comments. They can't stop, but wait, because... I just think there's room for both. I don't, when you actually... I know, because you're not on the rugby podcast. Yeah, you can come with us.

No, I don't know. You know I love League. But how good would it be? Like, if you've got 100 or whatever of these rugby contracts, all right. But if financially, all those contracts at league are worth more, then why can you not take them all? I mean, you can go, you'll take the top 400. His point is... And you can have... Yeah. Yeah, but we'll say if there's 560 contracts, we'll take the top 400. And you take 400 to 560. Sure. And you're rugby. The problem is that the athletes don't actually translate. Translate? Translate. Yeah, so like hard, museum, and television. Or the two different codes. So there's two different sporting boards. Translate. No, no, translate. Yeah, translate. Translate. I'm okay. All right. Just jump up there. I'm back to myself here. So basically, and you back me up here, Toby, you played a lot of union. Outside of your two wingers, you're full back. You're outside center and you're 12. Your whole backline. Angus grinder. Angus grinder.

He's 10. He's 10. That's fine. Or how did Benji Marshall go when he moved? Where did Benji go to? It went to the blues. The blues. The blues. I was asking him out that way. He's not the one. He's not the one. Come on, go hunt. He's not the one. He's not the one. He's not the one. Come on, go hunt. He's not the one. So why did you sign up? Why did you sign up? Come on, go hunt. Oh, you're smart. What do you mean? I'm saying... I'm saying... I'm saying... I'm saying... Obviously thought it would translate. You put it didn't. I'm not. I'm saying... I'm not. I'm saying... You know I'm just showing my... Leave the comments below. Hemmiprof. I agree. I agree with Proff. There's room for both. I just... Yeah, you just have to have your shitter players. No. You still want to play rugby. But if you have all the ones that can't make Lee, you just can go play rugby. So second row is in rugby union who has six foot eleven. Tom Haslund. Yeah. That being said. Oh, there you go. You see? Where there's really four. No matter the different athletes. You don't have to look. You don't... Your problem is. What I mean? You're saying... You're saying...

You don't have education behind it. I believe the six foot eight guys back rowers will take everyone else. All right. He's going to have them. You've got that young bloke coming from... He come up and trained at Bryant's. Showed him that he had Leo Jarks. Yeah, yeah. He was a rugby boy. What's good he got to? What's good? He got to score. Okay, put it this way. Best prop in the world right now, right? Oxnyshay. Okay. Oxnyshay. He's like 160 kilos. This tall on this way. Where is he going? What's he doing in Leakes? He's not African. Exactly. He's not New Zealand anyway. So now you're pulling in to Africans. Yeah. Well, they're not even related. I'm saying... You're at least don't translate. Yeah, but we're saying Europe's top five. European rugby can play. It's top five. All we're just saying is if you don't translate, you'll have to go to Europe to play because we'll take over New Zealand. I hope people understand what I'm saying. I don't know. We'll take over New Zealand. You will have to go to Europe to play. He just doesn't listen. I don't know what's going on anymore. Yeah, me either. I really wish I hadn't gone there that way. Go to the Leagues. Yeah, you need to go to sports. I'm going to toss this up as well. I know.

I'm going to rock the United States. I like watching Leakes better. But I... Playing both is great. And some people like watching you in better. But they need to be showing Leagues. There you go. But listen to this. If you have the best origin game... Out of my shirt, over. ..and you put it up against the best. For example, currently the Spring Box, all blacks. Yeah. That's the best game ever. I couldn't separate them. As in, they're both fucking unbelievable. Didn't South South Africa win on the weekend. They do. Yeah. I'm just, League has a problem of hiding on other codes. Like, we hate on AFL, AFL's a good sport. They can eternal me now. I'm sorry. I'm not afraid of AFL. I'm just saying we'll take their best players. I can't. I'm sure a union would have some sort of like issue, not issue, but I think we all have a healthy in Australia, especially our codes best, our codes best, our codes best. I feel like everyone would have that to a degree. Or are you saying that League is the worst? Because you would have to guess. Yeah, sounds like he's saying League is the worst. I'm just saying that. I'm saying that. I'm saying... I'm saying... I'm saying pro...

Prof... We're here. We're saying pro-so-wankers, though. I want to hear what he says. I'm saying Jimmy Malone is the worst. Not League's? Just Jimmy Malone. I like that very clear. Jimmy doesn't want to hear anyone else's opinions, Malone. No, I get it. I just say that. He's a bunch of facts that don't actually exist. So everyone is talking about... In New Zealand? We're taking over. I'll make sense. I like looking forward to the hate in the comments. Yeah. That was a very positive place and a very long one as well. It was too... Hey, you're what if, Toby? Hit me with it. What you got? What if... This is a segment we delve into a different alternate universe where we ask a positive... What if question? Nothing's positive. We ask what if question? Devon at the University of Discussing. What if you could guarantee one ridiculous individual achievement before you retired? What are you taking? So as a sports broadcaster, what would you do, pro-? Yeah, well, mashing the group over here. You always did yours, really. Well, you had the number one bench games of all time for a while before you were usurped. Yes.

I'm... He's gone past you. I think Mike Nicholson. He wasn't interested in it. There should have been an announcement. Really? I think so. I was talking to him on the charity walk outside the evening. He wasn't sure. Ah, yeah, I was offered. I stopped talking to him once we've worked it out. That's good, though. What's the one thing that's missing that you're wanted? Is it a running-to-lead grand final? Yeah, that was the only thing... Oh, yeah. I wonder what percentage of players play long careers like yourself and never get them. It's not hard. I saw Tukani on the thing you had in the other night. He never won a comp. Oh, they did he? No, well, he got sacks from the two teams. It would have won. Yeah. So do you think it's a, like, high? Is it 70, 80 percent or is it... I reckon it's like 90. Wow. 90 percent what? Of players that have, like, a long career, let's say 150 games plus or 100 games plus, whatever it might be, that actually haven't won a comp. I reckon it'd be huge. Here we go. Yeah. What? Yeah. What? What are you, or what's going on? The waddy forzantoon. No, I know. I reckon Makie's head huge. Oh, what? I haven't said a word.

Look, Jimmy Malone. No, you're the man, right? Yeah. I got a little bit of... Jimmy, what's the one thing from your league career? The one... Oh, I borrowed that and everything. No, I haven't. What? Dallion. What was one thing? Oh, yeah. I suppose, Dallion. You got five eight, though, didn't you? Yeah. I got five eight at a year once. Were you close to winning the Dallion at any point? No, I don't think so. Yeah. But it's not something I was lever-like. Oh, geez, I'd really need to win, but it's probably a massive... Like one of the biggest things in the game that you could probably say outside of winning premierships and that. Like, individually. So maybe that. See, we'd get on the piece in your way to blow up, go, fuck, I should've won a Dallion. They robbed me that many years. No, but yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they have a way, not... Cloth, church, you would be another good one as well. You should've... Yeah, 2016, that was tough between you and Grover. That was so close.

Yeah, even feeder should've won. Purchase should've won. Yeah, he claims racism, actually, about that. Yeah. He does. 13, you're good, too. I would like to play... For three years in a row in three new sides. That was it, I'd like... In the next three years? In the next three years. I'm fine with the shark next year. Thank you for joining me. But I would be mad to go Perth, PNG, South Island, Abyss. I would like that. Yeah, I would. It's so strange. Be like the first player to play for three new clubs. That'd be sick. I'd enjoy that. Pizz it close, he is, isn't he? Oh, not new clubs. I just drew a half matter, low grades. They played in Melbourne, went to worries. You're playing for three new sides. You're playing for four new clubs. Yes, I'll be like, you know, number eight, number ten, number seventeen. So you'd want to play for five years? Four, eight, fifteen, yeah. PNG, yeah, that would be pretty cool. I love that you said number eight and ten.

You're shooting your phone, bro. Eight, ten, then, puts seven in. If anybody can do it. Rudolph County. Rudolph, I would really like to achieve five. Just for once. The job body. No, you go. Every game day, you show up for your team. Now, it's your time. We go. We go. We go. We go. Ask your prescriber about Wigovie, some Maglatide Injection 2.4 milligrams, a GLP one. Call 1-8-3-3-4 Wigovie or visit Wigovie.com to view the medication guide and to learn more about Wigovie. Why wait? We go. We go. Call it's football is back. So Hilton called to me the superstition concierge to make your fan rituals a reality. Need a room to match your lucky number? We got you. Want to make sure our team doesn't wash your lucky jersey? Oh, that smells lucky. Hilton's unmatched hospitality can keep up with any superstition.

Even a marching bandwicker call it 555-55 seconds. Hit it! When you need a team that will do whatever it takes on game day, it matters where you stay. Hilton, for this day. Hilton, for this day. Hilton, for this day. Hilton, for this day. Hey, guys, last week we could talk. That's it. That's it. I was buying Hilton's first time. I've been very conscious of that, because I looked at it and feel the comments. I was like, don't jump in, don't jump in. But I saw a great opportunity for the Jane version. Hey, guys, can we go again now? No. I mean, I would love just one sentence to not be interrupted in my career, my journey in the latter one. You did it, you said. No, I would like just once I, in this group, setting, here or there, no, yeah, where I say something and you guys respect it. I just want to make that. Why would I leave opinion where I go, oh, you know, I'm sassy, I didn't do that, right? And you guys go, prof, that is a very good opinion. And we agree with each other. I have a big opinion that you guys care about. Yeah, I think so. Hell, I'm doing the body for three years. We've got even a break in clocks right twice a day, mate. Yes, Jared. Well, I think you deserve the right,

because you at least go away and study the games and research and educate, whereas we've got, obviously, a rugby league, and I lost an expert here, but he doesn't win what's the game. And I feel like you're in trouble. I mean, one, because I was at my father's loss birthday. You always talk about watching a movie with your missus and getting to start and not watching the game. So, invest in the game. If they should, game. Invest in the game. Invest in the game. Invest in the game. Invest in the game. Invest in the game. Invest in the game. Sorry, Latsy. I know there's other podcasts watch all the games. I've got to say, though, I watch a lot of it, but it just doesn't go in. Where is he? He watched the highlights. So, anywhere. Let's not get bogged down. It's time for Latsy Statsy. Oh, my goodness. Brought to you by Susie Rudolph and Taren Point Bowling. Yes, today. Let me get this out. Brought to you by Taren Point Bowling Club. Check out the Lawn Cafe Serving Quality Coffee Breakfast and Lunch Every Day from 7.30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Then hang out on our two-state-of-the-art golf simulators, open from 7 a.m. till midnight.

Yeah, when can we get tickets? Ah, it should be up in the next week. Oh, that's good. That's good. That's good. And this Statsy's brought to you by Susie Rudolph. She's apparently a massive fan of Latsy Statsy's. Massive fan. Susie Rudolph. That's the very other podcast, and all the boys on this on this couch. Let's hear the... Do you want me to go to the games and then you do your Statsy, yeah, you're going to do it. Okay, we're doing it. So, we final number one, this is a big one. Oleants Stadium, expecting a big crowd Saturday night 7.50 p.m. Roosters take on the sharks. Sharks one. Roosters lost. Cherry. Yeah. The Roosters, you know, they're up for this game. Really? No, they're up for this game. Oh, sorry. No, they beat the sharks twice. They beat the sharks twice this year, so they do have the wood. And when the marquee marking Ronnie Battle got tossed up before, they are pretty evenly matched teams. How do you think the halves worked on the weekend,

obviously with no walker? Did you pay attention to that? Yeah, I think they're like creativity. Yeah. Which sort of said, the week before they were, I just think he gives them the outside the box. Terry Evans made some big plays like he kicked that early kick in terms of shift and momentum and that. But I just think the creativity, like so, but they score two tries, the roosters. One was often intercept, so they didn't actually take the line. So whereas I just think walker gives them so much more eyes up foot in their creativity. And I think that's a concern with the roosters without him. Terry's some chat this morning that Sam Walker might be back. Well, this talk, then. Yeah. What was it like on nine, they were putting it this morning. Well, those talk that he was going to be back for the prelim. So obviously if they're trying to, and they, they could well be like, they're going, well, this is their son and death. You know, we need to push him back.

Whoever he gets back on a note, but did he have surgery? Did he? He did, yeah. Quite right. It still be a, what do you call it, infection risk? But that's, that's very brave. And if he wants to go on a good, I would go in the infection risk. Well, you got caught open two weeks ago. Now it was morning two weeks ago. It was last round of footy. It was Roosters versus us, which was last week. Who argued this even though it had two weeks yet? No. Oh, in my face. In my face. I just yelled at it wasn't just that. Well, that's why I just saw an infection because that's purely just a wound healing up. Obviously, that's how you get infected. Yeah, no, but I was like, obviously, they wouldn't, he wouldn't play with an open wound, but it's obviously. No, you don't know about it. You get two weeks of, it's too, you know, do you have a surgery ever? Yeah. Okay, I did pay attention then, obviously. Go on, Jeremy. Why, um, what thing is going on playing? He had a Birken footer somewhere. Yeah, he's, what's that? See, he's gone for the year. He was back, was he on the bench? He was on the bench. He was back there, obviously, he didn't play him on the one. So he was on the extended last week? Well, thanks a lot. Yeah, okay. Yeah, and I look, that's all I've got.

Oh, actually, Roosters are one, 64% of their games at Alayon Sharks, just an easily 50%. But it is a new home ground, so I have to play. It's not that different from stats. And we were talking about before. Yeah, the one thing is always been sharks have been a bodyside for Roosters over a long period of time. And, you know, those stats that just seem to happen over, like, multiple years, multiple playing groups and all that that need, that seem to come up. I reckon it'll be a lot closer than what we think. That's like, I think on form, Roosters should be winning, but, geez, I think it'll be close. Has Mr. Trindle's shoulder? Yeah, it looks sore in the game. Now, I think we are talking about the moment, actually, but it happens. Yeah, it happens where he's been at me for... Brain Trindle invited me over dinner in 2021. He promised me he'd give me dinner, cooked me dinner. We were bonding over the bubble, and we were just sort of getting to know each other. And then five years later, he says, and delivered on his promise, I brought it up to the team.

I got shunned for it. So I'm angry at him. With the team concerned, you were putting pressure on him at quite a big part of the season to cook your dinner. You always ain't got it. What was it? Did he say what the meal was going to be? What does he do for cook? And I can't imagine Trindle as a... I don't look at him and go, jeez, he'd cook a good food. He may... Food is like... Food is like his thing, yeah. His tip-top was full of it, was full of food stuff, and I was looking at it and going, oh, didn't know this back, you know? This was all kids back then. Five or six years ago, and I was like, oh, would you ever have ever done a bright promise? A promise job, though, if you did not. A promise job. And then all these five years later, I bring it up and the team thinks I'm a dickhead. Well, fuck, he's a dickhead. Fuck everyone else. What in the play? Well, somewhat suspicious of him. What's suspicious of him? Let me fuck. Yeah, so on this couch, choosing by the yo for dinner in recent times. Jeremy Latte of all. First Sarko's, that's my dog. Good ol' Z. Is that why he wanted to get a tricky, because he's... No, it seems gun. It was a shotgun. He said it was gun. It was mad.

Did you get a takeaway? No, he's cool. No, he's stucko. He's here enough, but it was still delicious. Yeah. No, he ran around. And do you ask him for five bucks on the way? Yeah. That's funny. That's game, you know how to say it, right? Okay, show up, you know. Let's do semi-final, too. Let's do semi-final, too. Warrior's Knights, as we said, Eden Park, 50,000 there. Or, by the way, do it. Brain Fiddle showed us one. Thank you. Going. Is it really? It looks soaring the game, watching it back, but he's alright. He's alright. No. Yeah. Yeah. Warrior's Knights, semi-final, too. Warrior's... I think tricky shoulders should be good for the game. You keep talking about it now, you're overdoing it. I'm sorry. I don't even like it when I'm doing it. I hate him. Alright, what are you going to do with your career? My statsy. Oh my god, okay. Is it now? This is what we've been building for the whole episode. Is this the... It's better to be a letdown. So, do you play in the game, Eden Park, and Lost, didn't you? For the Wars, Round 1, 2011. Yeah, remember? No matter.

Round 1. I mean, the Tainsy off the wall got a weak suspension. Oh, you're the man. You're the man. That wasn't the man. I got a weak suspension. It's not a... Anyway. The Wars have only been locked up. I told you the man. That was like, I'm the man. What's that happened? Okay. One from six times that the Wars have played Eden Park, they've only won once. So, the stats are against him. Boy, I would. I hope everyone's tuning in. Got their money's worth, man. And, no, it's 100% there because I haven't played there yet. Unless you're upset then? Yeah, it's not. I'm actually upset. Fuck that, Saddo. Say they've never won there. They've played there. Right, Chad. They've played there. Right, Chad. They've played there. I mean, Saddo. They've brought a float, a fancy bar. Yeah, I got a weak suspension. Oh, okay. Cool. So, let's break it down. Tricky Sheldon's phone. Tricky Sheldon's phone. He's a good chef. Yeah. But he hasn't had you either. He doesn't live up to his promises. And the Wars have won at Eden Park.

And the Nights at Eden Park. And the Nights at Eden Park. And he flogged down to me. He flogged down to me. Who's gonna win? I've already asked you. We know who you think. I think we're gonna win. I think we're gonna win. I think we're gonna win. Another great clash. And Dylan Lucas, have we already done this? Yeah. Yeah, it might be on the bench, which is crazy. Can I get in the wild with the app before it? I don't know. That's a big question. That's everyone's thinking. But I'm gonna send some buyers out of the injury website and make sure they're up for it. Oh, I made it well. Talk to me. Make me. Okay, weak off. What happens? So I'm just looking at Jimmy. Yeah. You don't play. Yeah, no. You're in. No, but what's gonna be happening at Panthers and at Dolphins, are they? They're down. Bond, I'll be trying to help. No, they'll be. Dolphins will be. That's a bit weird. They'll be trying it every day or? Oh, they'll be trying it normally. They'll be trying it hard. They'd have a pretty tough week this week. Probably James trying hard to do that. Oh, there you go. Everywhere Tuesday, do you have off Jimmy Heaps? A few.

I don't know, exactly. But yeah, normally you do. Do a bit because obviously not you miss it out on the match fit, match stay fit. So they do a bit of a tough session this week. Like a few bit of a tough week and then first and up in the next week. Contact. That's a lot. Yeah. Like things like before they, probably their last session, they probably do like a real simulation, like a pose session. We've got a shout out for someone that you promised out in Bathurst at the start of the year. Yeah, I don't remember that. I do because you were trying to get out of there and Jimmy was blind and we couldn't get him out of our dark. But, I suppose. They go home. Yeah, I was driving. So I don't know how I don't remember. I swear it's all right. Yeah, I don't know. I've got the video and then you added all the boys on the Instagram as well. You followed them all back. I think you give them the phone and you follow them. So what did you say? So the parents shared at the Bathurst Pentes under 18s. They scored a try on the bell. Unbelievable try. You'll probably send it on a few of them.

Oh, I was on that. Yeah, they know. They're roast. But yeah, Professor said he'd go out to the preso. No, it was a mad Monday. Mad Monday. And they don't even know he's boring. So I don't know why they asked him anyway. But, um, they wouldn't know. So, share that to the Pants of Boys from the, uh, the Genre and Boys. And maybe we'll send Millenia. So you're going out to Mad Monday. You said you would. Are you going to hold your comment? You wouldn't bring in Trindal, not living up to your promises. Yeah. You know what I, you know what I'll do? What, I'm sick that day. What date is it? Jack. Oh, you're not happy. I can't go to Mad Monday. And we're dead. Pommes, people. Shit. They're not getting billed. Yeah. Yeah. You let him let them down. You're pushing buddy rugby on us. There's a lot going on today. There's enough room for both toes. And when you're doing as part of our podcast, you're representing the collective. I understand that. And I understand that. You know, let me give you that. I understand that at times at these fights, you do think it's the brand deal. You think it's the brand deal. He's up in the room. It's a brand deal. I've never. I've never. It's all been asked to. What's better than one came back? I've never asked to. And we spoke about it and decided that. No.

No. I don't know what it's like. Do you know what the credit card, the credit card, bounces? Pham, oh. No, payment. You know what? No. No. No. No. I don't know. I think it's the best. I don't know. I don't know. No, payment. No, payment. Nice, Jeremy. That's what he missed last week. That's what he missed. What were you talking about? You know what, Jimmy? Actually, not Jeremy. Jimmy on this note. I'm retiring in a few years. Okay? And I'm going to need some of these cash grabs. You boys are all gay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And if you keep running this name into the dirt, I'm coming for you. What name? The journeyman name. Who's running in the room? You know, it's a difficult thing though. Because in the inner room, right? And I've got to give Jimmy credit here. 80% of the people. That's what he means. That's what he means. The 80% of the people. The mighty. That's the greatest. That's what I'm wondering. 20%. 20% I've never been to Salafiro. I'm like this weird, because you can see them enjoying it. Do you want to just melode to the minority or do you want to just go through it? No, you're going to read the room. No, he's right.

I don't want to melode to the minority. No. I want to be a part of the 80% that enjoys life. Sort of like the lines club at The State of the Year. So when they were running, so do you? And Jimmy said a few things, yeah. Let's move on. We're made jokes. If you'd like to book us for a live show. Yeah, it's a best. It is good. But maybe you should demographic before we go out there. You know what we should do is when people try to book us, we send out a questionnaire. Are you offended by the following topics? Are you offended by the following things? If they come back with one of those, we're going, maybe we're not for you. Maybe go to one of the other potdies. One question though, is it, would you like a night that you will never forget? Yeah. True? Jerry's only saying again. Nice, Jerry. It's a fine line. I was catching up with Kurt Dealer on the set and he made a call. I don't know if we're on the podcast. Yeah, we've got around 10 minutes, but you go and you find Bratsel good. Why don't we catch up after the podcast over? I'm catching up with Liam Neumann. I'm not taking him out now. That's what fuck you and Bratsel. Oh, mate. Great deflection from your stunts at our events. Look at you, the fuck.

What's in the language? Do you want to get this? This podcast is growing really quickly and I don't understand why. Yeah, because I can't care about it. You could rob it that's why. It's because it's because you don't care. I can't more than you. I don't go out affecting the brand publicly. We were getting at the start of the year about 1500 to 2000 views. Where you're now getting like 18,000 to 20,000 a week. People are like, yeah, last week. And I don't get it because I see here. Last week was big with Latzino. It'll probably dip a little bit this week. If you could go over that. And that goes on in the YouTube comments. Some bloke ripping me. Time now for Jimmy's list. People love these days. They always go viral. Jimmy, we chatted about this before. The list this week is. Oh, you do it right? Yeah, you're gonna. The top five. I just did five. No, no. You did five. No, I did it. But they've been trapped under there. That was ages ago. I just did that. Sorry. Go on. Now, all good. So it's the top five teammates that you had that you would never lend money to.

Go from number five up to number one. It's time now for Jimmy's list. Every game day you show up for your team. Now it's your time. We go. We go. Ask your prescriber about WeGovie. Some Maglatide Injection 2.4 milligrams, a GLP 1. Call 1-8-3-3-4 WeGovie. Or visit WeGovie.com to view the Medication Guide and to learn more about WeGovie. Why wait? We go. We go. Callers football is back. So Hilton called to me the superstition concierge to make your fan rituals a reality. Need a room to match your lucky number? We got you. Want to make sure our team doesn't wash your lucky jersey? Oh, that smells lucky. Hilton's unmatched hospitality can keep up with any superstition. Even a marching bandwick up call it 555 and 55 seconds. Hit it! When you need a team that will do whatever it takes on game day,

it matters where you stay. Hilton, for this day. Number 5. Paul Galen. He's had a lot of your lists, Galen. Right. He just ran out and tied us. Just take too much chasing up. Number 4. Day Nielsen. That money's never come back. Before the roommate. That money's never come back. I used to get it back off him on payday because I knew if I didn't, I messed payday. It was gone. Number 3. Paul Galen. That was hard because. Number 2. Day Nielsen. I guess I probably left it to him again and he hasn't got it. But at number 1 and the clear standout, my mate Jonathan Roy. Oh, Lee Hacker. Just mate. He borrowed me car. We were younger kids at Parabatta. He borrowed me car.

Obviously we had part time jobs in that. He goes, Jimmy, can I borrow your car? Something that he stuffed his car or something. I said, yes, we ain't no worries. All right. He takes it for the day. We come back and then I'm walking out of my unit to go to training the other. The window opens from his unit. He goes, Jimmy, your clutch is fucked. You said the fuck it was in this morning. So my car costs a fortune. The fuck, never gave me a send for it. Remember around the trip where he came? He bought all these strings and he said, I ain't got no work. Go, bro, you can't do it, bro. He's 20 fuckers. Fuck right. He's on the oil boys. It's not working. No, no, no. On that note, I was 21. Day Nielsen come to see us. And mate, he looked the same thing. Ten more kilometers ahead. He goes, I'm so excited. Hey, Tasman, come on, you can't let him go. I'm one less man than you. You fucking idiot. I'm living my mum and Lexa. I live with him as well. Same thing. Cherts.

I wasn't that stylish back in the day. I'm obviously a lot more now, but he's still on my shirt. Oh, he's quite like that. Can you still it? Can you still it? He's still on my shirt. That's my fashion. But yeah, now the money thing, he was the king. But you know what? He's the best time in the world. So I actually keep mind-blowing the money to him. You know what we should do once on. We should do the lists that you guys would end up on for other people. So if we went to Galan said, what list would Jimmy Maloney end up on? Oh, Jesus. I mean, there'd probably be a few, right? I'd wake up, yeah. Guys, he loved playing with. Guys, they're helping bring a membership to the show. That's fair. Coach Maloney. Very good. Right, so we've just finished with YouTube comments. Take it away, Jerry. Yeah, I've only got a few. There was one there, ripping in me, which I liked. No, Latte, see you home, going to what she said for so twice. But it said, that was good. That was good. That was good. At Professor. Is that you?

That's weird. Yeah. That's weird that you said that. Jimmy doesn't read the comments because Jimmy can't read at Laura's in there. That's pretty good. And then there's just a whole lot of love from the Wilds fans for Jimmy. And they love the Pukana. Well, I haven't got one today and I'm off that. Surely he's got some energy. Surely he's got some of them, bro. So what are you feeling over the weekends, boy? I see. Is there any more comments? No, I just, like you said, keep it showing. Okay, we're good. That's great. Please keep commenting. Keep, um, what do you love about that? Him going, give it a shot. It's my whole out of the show. Oh, I know. All right. Like, subscribe, rubby league, Jeremy. Good luck to your teams on the weekend if they're still playing. Toby, good luck to you. Thank you, mate. We'll be watching the shark. Keep it going. Keep it going. Give that bench warm. Yeah. A little bit more. That was it. Hey, what for you though? Otherwise, man, otherwise, we're retreat. No, you're in the. Let's go. It's football season.
