Does she love another sicko? Another sicko is she dead? Yeah, yeah, no, absolutely. Great weekend. She was down at the Tigers game. I'll mention I'll give them a mention actually later in our main show, but we'll go over no , no, another one. We'll go over I'll go over all the Lich Art stuff in the main show, but we'll talk about the footy game on this. We've got a little bit of a little bit of everything on this week's show. Obviously we've got origin coming up in a couple of nights. That's crept up the second game. That was in a buster. Oh, it's taken three weeks. It feels like it's been forever. Yeah, it's been. It seems like the teams were announced ages ago and there's been bloody blacks pulling out and blacks staying in the game and talks of changes. So we'll get along to that. We'll just open with a letter about the women's origin that we were talking about the other week and our mate is sent in. From episode four hundred ninety about the women's origin, I think the timing is shit house should be mid season , but the stand alone game is great for it. I go every year at Newie only costs about twenty bucks compared to the Blokes games , which can be hundreds . I reckon local clubs around the area should be should get buses and tickets organised to go watch and support the girls like I did my junior club used to organise with the men's. Overall keep,ing it separate is a great way for the everyday person to take in the whole experience of origin . Thanks, Matt. Thank you, Matt. You're champion. Before we get on, I've got a quick basketball fucking very funny thing here. Yep. I'll just find it in. It's fucking gone. Yeah. Eggs that Eggles technology. I think I got it here is that you bought the one that you threw in. Yeah, yeah. That's a great saw the greatest basketball team in the history of civilization. Wow. We saw they had a twenty five point league to eight straight threes like they thought you get like that was some of the most mismanaged stupid league basketball hey when you fall twenty nine point League the other team has to help you to San Antonio Spurs help if New York next will win this game by doing some of the stupid ass stuff I've ever seen on a basketball court. It's so true. Charles Barkley just speaking the truth. It is so true. I 'm Charles Barkley. I haven't watched a lot of basketball in recent years. I've watched every time I tried to make the travels and it's just a shooterathon rebounding. It is a completely different game than to what years ago we were running. It's completely different. It's way different. Half these bikes wouldn't last in a game. You got no, you got the MVPs falling over twenty five times in a game. It's just it's a bit like soccer on a basketball court these days. The game the other day, the game five that the series finished on I did watch the first half of that and I think at one stage one team was I think it was thirteen from thirty four and the other team was twelve from for threes. thirty four? No, it just feel girls, just shots. It was either thir aim from thirty four or forty four and the other team was four aim from Yeah, that's shit. It was was they shooting at something like thirty percent. It's it was horrific to watch and he's exactly right. Yeah, I love that he just how he just rips in. What? They had spurs in the five games in the first quarter had a double digit lead in every single game. Yeah And they lost four lines. They threw it away the next. Yeah. That's what he's saying. It's like usually the opposition team who beats you helps you , you know, lose. Yeah. He said they did it to himself. They got a twenty nine point lead and just went ah fuck. Horrific and just kept trying to hit three's Yeah. Like what are you doing? Yeah, they would just keep taking along. They would be absolutely filthy. Like just getting the ones and twos, just get the twos, just get the twos. Like fuck yeah, they couldn't be that's what I'm saying. They were like both teams were horrible shooting with Boston game. Absolutely. It's a different game. I just do not find it anywhere near as enjoyable as I did growing up. It was I don't watch it anymore. They'd wipe 'em off the floor over their old bike. Exactly. Or they'd get fouled out very quickly. Exactly. Well, I got some Star Liquor news here. Yeah, go for it. So this week only.

Wekend curves, did Mustangs play the girls have a run? Yeah, Mustangs had a had a yeah, we all went to Born all four all five grades as five this year. Yeah. All five traveled to Born Bay, the Layers League tag got a win there Little Lavy us one she had a win there against the Born and then the girls were down in the sorry then the eighteen s played they had a win and they were pushed so it was first second Barnay got a very it stocks looking good for B orn Bay in the future. Born Bay Adams are second on the ladder where first they push the mustangs right the whole way along. I thought they're going to get done actually. Yeah, right. The Mangusts come along there and had a win . That was a good win there. And then the girls come out like the tackle girls came out and they were twelve kneel down. They ain't lost the two games. They were twelve kneel down. They look gone for all money and then Lisa Row scored a double she got she scored a double she got snapped enough she her nose got busted she fucking yeah it got brutal but she scored a double there it was good and Asha kicked the winning goal and went up winning winning that game so come fourteen twelve come back come back there that was really good and it's just good to see like a good foot to from both teams Born and Warmber. Reggie's got done Reggie's again reserve grade Boron Bay really good side. I think we got done twenty four twelve. It was just a good game of footing someone's got to win someone's got to lose. Born Born's got the chocolates there and we come out and in the Air Grad one sixty zip shit balls and full like to Baron's credit they didn't like the scoreline was obviously horrible for them but, a couple moments there's thinking oh they put in the flag up here they weren't. They were having a real crack and like being on the other end of that. So runaway bay beaten warm by one hundred twelve Neil one day back when we were younger and just watching that like you just we know you know teams feel getting dumb by that in a grade. Oh it's it's rough but Borne's a great club. They run and they've got good people there running the show they got a couple of injuries as well and cold blleo's sort come of back into the Agrade. They haven't won a game this year the Agrade, but they've competed every game 's rough they 're hard throwing it hard throw it but good Aiden's good reserve grade stocks are good there . They know they got two women's sides. So the club strong. Yeah . It's just the A grade boys are just bit off this year and just it just happens to everyone. Happened to us a few years ago. We we got busted up with injuries and stuff early. Kigalo are much to the same Kiglo are really struggling with with injuries. They bought well and they got a good team. They had Joel Thompson in our player playing for him. He's he's gone, he tore his peck . That's Cargo. So yeah, like it just goes around. Unfortunately, it's a second year for Kagle that they've been depleted with injuries . But it's just it's just one of those things. It happens to every club and Born Bon will be fine. Byron will come back and there are good like I say, they are a good club. It's so good going there too. Their fans are good people. The clubs run by good people, it's a good vibe and good buzz around the joint. It's not like one of those clubs you fuck I don't want to go there. Yeah. Like you're really like Barnes cool. Yeah, it's rough for him as you go through those. Yeah, it was horrible. It's rough when you go through because at the time, you know, halfway through the cup, you just feel like it's never going to end. Yeah, then after the game like you could just see like I went out and should feel the players hands and stuff like that. But we had yeah, they know, you could tell, you know, they' hreurting , but they'll bounce back. We had a debooed seventeen year old Arthur. Absolute fucking weapon this kid. Yeah, right. Yeah, he's been out in Finan a few times. We've got a couple injuries there ourselves and we bought our one of our front rows, Licky Campbell's got jock rot and he said to have a bit of time off. Okay , you reckon this is a back injury but believe it or not Jock Rot is a big case of jock rot. Huge huge yeah, he's got the bongo . But yeah, so yeah, he was out and I have shuffled a few things around, brought young Arthur and he was seventeen, got his mum and daddy into the sheds to give his jersey and the instructions were go out there, be smart, you know,? Yeah Mike gets out there and just goes looking for the ball . I reckon after the game. Probably eighty kilo, I reckon. If that, maybe not even that. And he's tackling technique, you've got to get you down and have a look. His tacking technique is unbelievable. Unreal. Like and you got blades in that team like in the Mustang side who played NRL and stuff coming over to Martha Gang you got a fantastic tacking technique Arthur Rof. Yeah, he got in and he bored in really had a crack and he was you know, he was, lippy and unreal. Yeah, like on the bench not so much on the field, I don't think you see any bit on the bench? He was cooked with shit on people. Under real. Yeah, I love it. Fuckin' I love it. Davey is nothing better. Real good. We had a bit of a wind too, baby D goterry the first win of the year for the Thunder Embrance team, which was good. I think we worked out what the issue is there. It's me turning. You weren't there. Yeah. Maybe you need to. Look, you might accidentally put pressure on her without meaning to . Well, it's not the rest of the team, but you're in there with your skirt on and fucking dressed in the uniform and you might be your footing singer dad doing high kicks and these balls . Yeah it was a big turnout for the books actually they'd have I think they had five players out girls they went up and played the next level up so the old next person up come into it and they beat the Gold Coast Titans so they fantastic. Yes, so always a good one for yeah they're actually They're one of the best so they got around to they so it was it was a bit of a surprise but it's also very good for obviously to beat the Titans down our area up there with the sunny case. good So to get a little monkey off the back and get the first weed up there for them. Yeah What under's is that? It's they call it Emeralds but it's under twenties ascent. Under twenties, I think. That's good. She's pineapple. She's only sixteen, isn't she? Yeah. So it's fantastic. Yeah, two girls turning sixteen this year and then they got probably another four of her age like sixteen turns And the young ones. Yeah . Yeah, they're probably one of the younger ones but they're . Yeah, it's been a tough start, but that was a nice, unexpected win. A couple of footy videos I want to play here . One is Wayne Bennett. I absolutely love this. Sort of explains the bloke a bit. Everyone sort of thinks he's just a full stiff, but he's a great bike. I love this on James Graham's podcast The Byron . Most coaches sit at the front of the boss . You make your way to the back of the boss where generally speaking the sort of cooler cats would hang out and the more boisterous members of the team would be. Why is that? I've always I'm an introvert. I'm extremely introverted . So for me to be out there is pretty hard. It's not something that's easy for me. I'm happy to be in the corner . But I also like fun and I like being around rogues and I like being around people that enjoy themselves. If you think about all the boys set up in front of the bus . It's all the management, all the players that, you know, closer to God than you and all of him. Okay , they all set up the phone mate, and they bore the shit out of me. Get out of the back, all the idiots are down there, all the people that you call . You don't want to be, but you love being in that country you can't you can't live that life. It's just not part of you just can't do it. You know, you can't believe what they put themselves through. But you just love 'em and you love their human and they're fun. And I think it goes back when I was little boy, the mother sent in the bus trips with my father and my father played in the bush and you know I found all the idits out back in the fifties and I'm still searching for the idits. I love them. I just because that's where the fun is. It's I guess they've got more interest in tale to tell. Well, whatever. And you know, you know, as I said, they're going to put themselves out there and whatever , you know, they tell better jokes and they have more laugh, laughs about nothing, but they just laugh and sometimes I need all that, I need that. But because you know you're pretty wound up and you're carrying a lot of things inside you because you're coaching a team is a lot dealing with every player in that team and every member of staff. So you just need that release. Yeah. And but I can't do it because I don't drink alcohol and I don't do a whole lot of stuff. So I've had to find my way to keep my sanity and down the back of the bus is my way of keeping my sanity. I love that. One of my favorite stories with that is Mark O'Meill and William Ofeld and the two thousand five kangaroo team, anyway, we had to go back to we played the final and took EWS comprehensive way unfortunately. But anyway we had to go back to London next day to catch the plane out the following night and I knew that was going to be a disaster, you know, and I told them we don't have any beer in the bus going down because they'd get themselves drunk before we got there and then we'd have to pull up with twenty four hours and it's just gonna be but named. So again in the bus and I got the big tub of ice and all the be ers at the back So I've lost the plot, you know, and that's why I'm sitting at the back . So Mark puts his hand up to grab one. I said, Mark, you know what I told you? He said I do catch. I said, Okay, Mark, I said, Well, that's it's all over . So I sat on the beer all the way down to London. So they couldn't be sneaking along with any girls right in the back of the bus and on a big tub of beer. I had the shit with them when they pulled up and it was okay. I love that. It just shows another side to him and why he's so good. Everyone wonders why he's so good. It's not his ex is an os. He knows like he said, he's dealing with every player in that team, every staff member, he's trying to get the best out of every single person and sitting down the back. I love it. No, he's a people pleaser, mate and he's a people man and that's he just man just people. That is just brilliant. It's how I sit on the beer I'd have shits he was sitting there. He's right, but you imagine O'Mealie and Mason if that had twenty four hours drinking peace before they get down there to then enjoy themselves get on the plane answering the daily telegraph phone calls probably about what happened. I thought I had another one. Oh, I did actually. So we've got another one here before you go. The Canadian open was played. Fan Paul Emerson steps in as a caddy. Yeah, that one was a couple of years ago. It was a couple years ago. Canadian open was odds. Yeah. So CT Pane. Yeah, I watched a bit of it. CT Pain or Pan Pan, yeah, Pan he needed a caddy or whatever happened. Yeah. And I mean, caddy got cedrook mid tour . And it's legal. You can get whoever you want out of the crowd. You can get anyone there. This guy might carry me back. Yeah. So I 'm just a big fella. He was humping along. He's doing it pretty tough there at one side. It was but absolutely larious. So two thousand nine is when it happened, I'm pretty sure but he got to meet no got you got to meet Larry, you got to meet all these legends on the golf course and he's carrying a bag so good. Jupiter. He walked off the he walked off the first just after he's throwing the beer bonn and carrying it, he's walked off and the punter fell off the bag . Hearly lost the punter cover. He lost the punter cover. Yeah, I saw that . Before we get to this week's games, we'll go over the as we get to the Warriors game, misses Andrew Webster. I don't know if I've ever heard him complain . He's a great coach warriors coach and he makes a very valid point here. He had a gut full on the weekend. And here's why . Well , there's a dropout . Chanel says to the referee, there's an adversant on the screen . He says, Ref, how long have I got? I can't see the clock. He says you got five seconds . He kicks it in two . And as he's kicking it the siren goes off and blows his whistle gives a penalty , two points straight in front , and then they question him and he says my not f ault . So like gifted them two points because professionalism around they don't even know how long to go. When you ask the question because you can't see it on the clock and the response is you got five seconds and you kick in two . That's like I never blow up . That's embarrassing and it happened on the scrum again and they're notified, keep radioing down, go please see the match official. Please get the referee. There's something wrong with this clock. Stop penalizing it because we don't even know when to pack. Well, when if the referee tells you you got five seconds and you kick it in two what five minus two , they got three seconds left. Yep. Is that right? Three? Yeah, I'm pretty sure it is. So when like the referee tells you that and then he's the one penalized, surely common sense goes, look, let's do a redo there. That something's gone wrong . Or you say you say just play on. Common . Common sense. Yeah, I just asked Chanel we couldn't see the clock. I don't know what happened. It went to a different screen or something. So we were watching the clock and went off the screen, couldn't see it. And then obviously Chanel. Yeah, Chanel Chanelle told me that he asked he asked the ref how long was left and he said five seconds and then he kicked it like where we said in two seconds and then yeah , I don't know because the sharks were awesome to him. Like both teams are awesome but you just don't need You just don't need this like if someone makes a bad referee decision or a call they thought it was flawed and it wasn't that stuff happens. But when we can't even get the game clock right that's I don't know, that's just the most unprofessional thing for the game I've ever seen . So he actually said the referee I watched the game. The referee actually said that's their problem not mine or yours or something like that and he's like, man I, can't see it.' Hes like, That's not my problem. He goes not my problem. You got it sort of is going to be able to tell the teams how long they got to kick the ball. At the end of the day, just kick it and just pack a scrub. But they're the race. he's got time to do exactly everyone's got the rules to do it and they do watch it on the big screen but yeah they went to an ad or something I think they said twice and they lost by two they lost by two they got the kicking front you've got a given leaving basically. But mate, don't go past your fucking old mate's field goal. Oh, I know you had standing Trindle. Yeah, standing but let's go past the fact that they won't have won a yeah, we want to talk about we want to talk about all the little shit but he's exactly right. You profess'ionrealis m or not. Like, how doesn't the Riff know how much as long as on the shot clock? Yeah, he must he must just go off the same thing? Well, he has to. Let's go off the same thing. I don't know. Did Endersley come out and have a fucking conference? I don't know what's happened with that, but it's a it's something should be done. Oh, that's that's shocking. It's the wise would as well they really were get to that point in a game of footy like you said bad calls a bad calls, that's fine. You can leave by that's actually a referee decision. That's that's something that they've got to, you can't run a clock off it. It's happened twice in the game. Fuck that's horrific . Bronx, big trouble going through the scores. Rabbitos forty eight, six and they are running out of troops. They're just injured they've had injury after injury for so long the Bronx they've got hardly anyone left. Yeah, they're in struck. Be very surprised, Reynolds with another old man injury. Just I think I said at the start of the year, he's gonna get them all year and he's probably missed as many as he's played. Well, they were sort of saying cramp and it just wouldn't go away. Yeah, I'd be end up walking him off and he was walking away better by time because he had to walk a long way by time he got back to the bench he was actually walking pretty right but I don't know I haven't seen what they've come out and said this week . I would be incredibly surprised if it's not hamstring. When he's had so many of them yeah, I would nearly guarantee it. Oh, we had a touchy go down on fucking . Louis Man for a hamstring. Sniper got him just before just before the end of the first half. Damn, gone. No shot. Like absolute sniper . No good. They're gone. No good. Gone. Yes, that was a drumming there. Alex Johnson with four knows how to find a weapon that block knows how to find a try that bloke . Dolphins talking about teams flying. There's another forty eight points, forty eight ten over the Roosers who obviously had a stack of people out . So you can't take too much away from that. We not iced not too much not you mentioned do that but they're just you can't take anything away from the dolphins. They're just they've got points all over the park and they're going to make a run for it, I reckon. They're a massive top four chance. Yeah, a massive top four . Eels fifteen twelve didn't get to see any of these fifteen twelve over Raiders, but they've lost a few now radersd. Mike there. Again, but Ethan Strange is a few of them outside. Yeah, they had something out for sure. But they're out of all the teams so far this year, they're the ones that have disappointed me. I think they've been in so many games, but just their record like they're where sitting on the l adder is probably the most disappointing, but yeah I think they're way better than where they're sitting. I think once origin period gets through and a few things like that I think it'll I think they'll come good maybe I think they will too they may be too far cattle there. Yeah may,be too far out there down. They're all they're fifth line. Twelve points. Yeah , the eights eighteen. So they're probably still three games out . Only had one so yeah, they're there a chance if they make a run to get in, but I don't need a run, but Jeezer unlucky that just last year didn't go their way. They can they could be coming here this year's premiers and as at the game Titans Tigers absolutely outstanding loved every part of it . A late tribe at the Tiger Zone thirty six, twenty eight, but Gee it was good back and forth love the way I just love the way the Titans are going blocks like Zayne Harrison and County Kinney just and they sort of said it about Kinney that they just go after the game. They might have a mistake might be something Yeah and it might be something wrong like maybe he gets three bombs taken off him every game County Kneyin but he doesn,'t blink. He just goes back at it, looks for the next play . Zayn Harrison got himself in a spot to try and kick a forty twenty that ended up going out in the full, but again, he just attacking the game. That's all you can ask for these kids and he's on hiding is he? No, I reckon I just love the way they go and they're not getting the results but mate the Tigers were good. It's like we say every time they play it like art it's pretty hard to beat that mob hide back the Titans for that game so they can get fucked I thought the Titans off the back of last week against the Broncos. I thought the Titans would have got them down there. Yeah, they're very good. No, very good. Just tigers too good late . Mate, you get that crowd behind you. I can tell you there was it was literally a wave of support . It was it was incredible. It was the best atmosphere I've been at in a game and the Li Kart Lagers helped as well . That's about the footy stuff news about Galki out there. Yeah, he is here somewhere. He got beaten in the senior in the like a senior race and the Olympic champion come out and sort of just everyone's like he's firing shots. He didn't. He came out and said M,ake stay in lane for a bit. Go back and keep running against kids, get the experience and then slowly work your way up to the seniors . He's faster than the guy who won the race, Galgat has ran faster than that. Yeah. And Locky said he said he got a b ad start and he bit overwritten like all that sort of stuff and he's still not going anywhere. I think it's a diamond is it? Yeah, probably a diamond league. Yeah. Diamond League in Ozlah, yep. Yeah, so he's going to go back. He's going to keep going, but like the champions said, he goes, Mate, you just keep plugging away in your age groups and then just get the experience and build your experience up and he said then you'll get to the get to the big boys. I actually liked what mate said he wasn't rude. I don't think he was rude. Yeah, yeah im.mediate Ily tried to make it rude, but it was he wasn't being rude. Yeah, I'd say he'd have I'd say I don't know the sprinting side of it, but I'd say him and his coach would have their their plans long term where they want to be and go and make it part of it is dominant league. Yeah, part of it is going to these things. You got to go to them and you got to you got to compete and mate. But that's what I'm saying is like cool, but make sure you're still doing the unders with the, you know, with your age groups as well, like don't just don't just take it for granted that yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah for sure for sure but he'll yeah like made even the greatest they never just turned up early and just won everything out of they still got beaten and they all go through patches too. They all aim at different events and good on him still mate six in a diamond league still fucking fantastic didn't come last year . Yeah, no we're right behind again it's unbelievable on a rock. Yeah he's, a freak, he's a freakin' nature . Golcos sons , I don't know whether this is just an article about someone just writing something off the back of their thoughts or if they've actually gotten any evidence, but they're saying Golco son's facing internal crisis, a strange, strained relationship with coach Damian Hardwick revealed Suns have made a hot made a hot start to the season with three big wins to immediately be installed as Premiership favorites, and we're still pretty sitting pretty after around ten with a seven and three record , but things have gone pair shape since with three consecutive losses . The suns have dropped to ninth place ahead of Friday night's blockbuster against Hawthorne speaking to the agenda setters, Morris revealed it's a tense environment at the club . It's my belief that Hardwick's connection with the players and their connection to him is a str ange as it's been since he's been at the club. It's causing issues all over the place both on the field and behind the scenes . And it goes on to say that they think some of the staff's got the shits with the players and some of the players got the shits with the staff, but yeah, I don't know. I always think it's a of these can have some something to it. Lots of it can just be slightly sweet and making up a yarn, but we'll see how they go against Hawthorne . Let's see if they can bounce back. But the World Cup is here and there's been a lot of headlines lately. We will get to the Australian one in a sec, but gee this made me laugh and shake my head at the same time. Confusion as Tunisia announced coach not sure his name Sabri Lamucci is sacked after game one of the FIFA World Cup What was the score? They lost five one on Sundays Group F Opener and Tunisian Football Federation appeared to have announced his dismissal on their Instagram account. Nice. Written in Arabic . The statement was translated by Google . An agreement has been officially reached to dismiss the coach. Plans are underway to appoint Monde Cabier as the national team coach on an interim basis , you've got an interim coach. Oh fuck, this is good. You've got an interim coach at a World Cup. At a and like isn't socc theer cu worldp like one of the biggest spectacles in the world? It's the biggest sporty event in the world. I think it's bigger than the Olympics. I am not going to buy into the soccer world cup and say I'm watching it because I'm not a soccer guy . So I don't I'm not yeah I watch it I watch it. I loved watching it growing up and again it's another sport that I sort of haven't had time to keep flying when the World Cup comes around I just have it on in the background pretty much every day but, there' somes good goals in that. No, I feel sorry for the coach. There are some good goals in there that game just unfortunately not leave some inkling to him before he goes. That is if you lose, you know, why wouldn't it? Why wouldn't they take him? I just can't believe you can sack you coach after one game of a world cup. It's pretty funny. It's probably not funny for him, but it's pretty funny. I think the pool game has only got three. Just give him the other two games. Honestly , I thought that was the other one, I'll play this one from so going into our first game. So in our pool , we have America, Turkey , and Paraguay . And the Americans over there were talking shit about us. And then the Turkey captain come out and said, you know, that they'd dominate us. And anyway, the bloke could come out and I'll just see if this goes through Yeah, the bloke could come out in America and bag the shit out of us. Don't Harry Cool. Harry Kills then come out they've asked him about what his comets were because obviously Australia come out and we won two Neil outstanding great shock but yeah here's a little a little bit of a Harry Kule interview . Pundit sucker is Roman lair, sort of made some comments about history as well. Look, listen, again, with this Australian thing. It's getting a little out of control. What are they drinking over there? Because they got no shot of doing anything at the World Cup. How do you take those as a form of sucker religion? Water on a duck's back. I again don't even wouldn't even take that into my brain because we as footballers we respect everyone and we know football's a small world. So again it's funny when you talk about things in life it can quickly come around and haunt you. So again , you just go out there, you be quiet, you do your job and you let your football do talkin'. Yeah, I mean, I suppose the one thing that has come across my mind is that the USA are talking about there's some unbelievable football nations or soccer nation, right? I would love , right, to play their golden generation against our golden generation. I mean, it wouldn't even be a contest . So I don't know what they're harping on about. Really seriously I I don' dont't. even know if they played football soccer back then. I mean, I think they're a new nation to it. I get it that they got the MLS I understand that but if you want to compete at the highest level you got to be playing at the highest level in football. Back in that day there was only one team winning that game. Had you heard of this play Nope . Who? The guy who said it? Oh, it's a player. It's going to be tough. I think he played back in the day but, never that they showed their formation against Paraguay. Yeah. So he goes on to say he thinks we're a genuine chance but they're playing wouldn't they? But yeah, they should they should beat us , but they put a lot of Turkey shirt. I think Turkey were favorite in our group and we beat them yeah . So we're going to be a chance against them. I think that from everything I've talked to with soccer mates is that we're very good defensively America are very good attacking. When do we go? I think it's five o'clock Saturday morning. Okay, so there'll be a lot of people up early up watching no doubt English will be all over it. She's all over that stuff. I'm not one of those. I can't like just because it's like I can't just bandwagon. Like obviously I'll go for Australia in anything we do and I hope they win but yeah yeah no they were great the other day off the back of that I think they could they can be competing fuck even if we can get a draw out of it. If we can get a drawer out of that game all about that would be outstanding. We've been to the finals before? Yeah, I've got through we got through a couple of times through the to the next round, but this one's a bit different. There's extra teams and I think the next round is a round of thirty two whereas it used to be the round of sixteen. it's just changed a little bit I think. So winning that game the other day, if we can get a drawer out of either of the next two games , I think we'll probably get through. And we need if Turkey can lose a couple more. Yeah, well, they've got it. Well, we've been there on Paraguay. We beat Paraguay. I don't know. I know we're playing Uruguay that ages ago. We used to have to beat him again fucking Yeah, I do remember all that. Well yeah, you require not Paraguay yeah so many guys there is no there is. So that's that's an amazing start for the Aussies. You much rather that than the other way around get a hiding first.ur Tkey now in trouble. They're going to they got to somehow get results . Well two Nills America and it's like hockey I guess so Turnills a bit of a thrashing especially with the World Cup and they were great goals the two was the golf was so good reapers. were They so good. So it wasn't like it was just, you know, deflection into the back of the net. They were they were two ripping goals against the team that said they were going to dominate us. So that's awesome. Yeah, I love that they've done that. Yeah, so good. This was bloody sad the other day. CCTV reveals Australian athlete died on family holiday to Thailand after a crash on a wet road . Victorian sprinter Jemis Stapleton died in Thailand Star Aflete , former junior athletics champion who finished third at the twenty twenty five stall gift. Oh wow. Waught in the road accident two weeks after celebrating her twenty fifth birthday. Yeah, she was riding a motorcycle on a slippery road near her hotel in Costamillion on Wednesday afternoon when it collided with her Subaru . It was caught on CCTV which showed her motorcycle losing traction and falling on its side in the family. That's fucking horrible mate. Yeah, absolutely heartbreaking. So to her family and friends there maybe maybe somebody's listening, but it's horrible. The photos and that the articles I've read, she just looked like a beautiful person. Gorgeous girl love life in the middle of the world is horrible. Yeah, middle of best parts of her life. So on a holiday. Yeah, on holiday. So I just wanted to mention that and send the thoughts out to the thoughts of creatives of family . A couple of big golf st ories here . Australian Open Master Plan takes shape as PGA shift to spark one of the world's great tournaments. The Men's Australian Open be played at Peninsula Kingswood Country Golf Clubf in cl the outskirts of Melbourne in twenty twenty seven. Have you seen that joint? Yeah, it looks good. It looks very lost bally with the city's famous sandbelt courses to also stage the twenty twenty nine and twenty thir ty editions. It's a hell of a golf course, mate. Yeah. Yeah, the host venue for those years are yet to be determined, but Golf Australia announced on Monday morning that the Australian open would remain a regular feature on the Melbourne Sandbelt across the next five years . Back to back master champion Roy McLro ve for this year's event at Kingston Heath which will also host the twenty twenty eight President's Cup twenty twenty eight Australian open ed we played at the new North Adelaide Golf Course, which is set to undergo a forty five million dollars redevelopment and has been built as the future home of Live Adelaide . Between twenty twenty eight and thirty four, one of the men's and women's Australian Opens we play at the public course every year . We are setting the Australian open up to be one of the great golf tournaments of the world golf Australia Chief Executive James Sutherland said , We now have seven years of certainty in regards to not only our state government partnership, but also the venue of where the Australian open is going to be held. The PJ Tour will begin their three year partnership with the Australian open at next year's Peninsula Kingswood debut. The deal was announced last week with a tournament to still be co sanctioned between the DP World Tour and the PGA tour of Australasia after signific ant interest from live golf . But in strengthening the PGA's tours alliance with the DP World Tour, the US based circuit will help boost the prize pool which was two million dollars last year and encourage more of the stars to venture down under . Australia's passionate, knowledgeable fans, world class venues and rich competitive history will make it a key part of the global game and our members value the opportunity to compete in the Melbourne Sandbelt , Christian Hardy the PGA Tour is senior vice president of International So very interesting. Sounds like it sounds like there's going to be some big things coming out shortly. It says Sutherland said he expects announcements to be made in the coming weeks about changes to the PGA tour schedule in a major shift in the's m proenfessional game landscape . So I think there's going to be a lot of changes in the PGA tour and it looks like Australia may be a part of that . The Australian open might be part of that sort of tour which is huge they can probably again we can probably thank Liv for actually putting it back on the map and now PGA tour are gonna well you know, that's what you wanted. You said, you know, you know, the PG have done nothing. If anything, they've responded and lives gone. Look, it won't be fucking unkilling. They're gone. They're coming back. So at least at least the PJ is going to pick it up and and do something. It would have been way worse if the PGA just went. Mean good. Yeah. But all the PGA lovers , which I've always been, they've made, if it was it for Liv or all these excellent I agree with you. Money went up this year. They now got ten tournaments worth twenty million each that they never had. If Leave's done nothing, it's it's kicked them in the arse. Oh yeah . They know it's fucking possible. Yeah. Because there's other billionaires out there Gibba that could go, you know what? Let's pick up this live style thing and we'll run with it and completely destroy the fucking PGA . So they know now they're like oh fuck we have to actually give South Africa and Australia and New Zealand and other places some fucking golf. Yeah like you said the South African Liv is a fucking amazing tournament unbelievable . So like now they're like ah fuck there's a market there . We've neglected them forever. So it's sort of like fuck the PGA and I agree with you. Well, yeah, well we were on it. The PGA just fucking closed the doors. Yes. So they can get fucked up. But they're going to produce something like that. That's awesome. Yeah, this will be interesting. In the next few weeks, it would be interesting to see what comes out, what the schedule's gonna be like on the PGA but if we some part of it like it does sound like it'll be more DP World Tour sort of already is it already sort of kicks off the DP World Tour . So just be interesting if this is more tied up, but anyway it'll be it sounds good so it'll be very interesting to see what comes about . This week is the US Open Golf one of the, four majors have a look at this joint curves in the video I'm showing here. It is very, very lynxy, is not a tree in sight . It will be a lot of amazing tournament to watch I reck, on. It'll be the wide fairways. Forty one yards is pretty wide for an average fairway. You need to get there. It's what we need to play. I definitely need to play in a forty one . Yeah, still not wide enough for me it's just it just looks like an amazing course. You wouldn't sort of think it's an American course. It sort of looks like it looks like Scotland. Yeah. I don't have any bucket list, so to speak of things that I like'd to do anything to get to. And but before I leave this earth, I would love to go to Scotland and play on a like obviously you're never going to play St. Andrews, but to get over there and play on one of those old lynx courses I'd fuck man I'd give me left nut to get over there and do that one day. Yeah I'll do bumboogle it's one of mine but for those for the golf lovers out there if you're a golf lover get on YouTube and watch Ron Chopper play Bumboogle plays a lot of good courses, but obviously because I love Barn Boogle, I wanted to watch it, but yeah, get on and watch it. It's probably about forty minutes, but good channel good channel. Right. Ron Shop is a real enjoyable. No bullshit on it just gets through , plays golf and talks as he plays . There's no downtime in it. It's sort of coaches. I like when he said about the other day, he said there about the using a tee off for path three. He's like, if I fucking see you not' usingre a Ta Par three golf gives you nothing. Golf gives you absolutely nothing , but it gives you a fucking tee on a par three. Use it. And I 'cause sometimes I get like I was nine nine throwing on the ground and have a hit. I'm like now I'm like I'll be using it. Yeah , yeah, yeah. Yeah, now he's made it's a great one to watch if you're golfing because like I said, I just hate all gibbering in between. He just made he just plays golf and yeah to watch and enjoy it and yeah the Bbarnoogle ones interesting because it just shows how hard courses can be even if you're good . So that'll be good this week. I think the best form going into it is just about Matt Fitzpatrick . I haven't got the pr ice there for him but it'll be about twenty something dollars I would say on Ladbrokes and what else have I got to finish? Yeah this might, have been a little while ago. I got told about it before . It was in February Darts Rock by Fargate You put this in the Yeah as the player accuses opponent of stinking the stage out after blowing the lead. Well, you've got a fart you're a fart haven't you? The world of DAS has been shaken by a farting scandal. DARS player Darren Webster has controversial accused his opponent of farting during their face off during the Motors Super Series. Whipster left let his feelings be known in a rant on social media last night fifty five year old Brit is a former two time world champion quarter finalist and faced the Dutch ed Ron Muellen camp. He dutched her in the best of seven legs match. Webser went with a comfortable three yield lead but was miraculously beaten four three in a miraculous come . He a h ditouble sixteen to emerge victorious, though Webb refused to shake his hands and looked outrage . Unsportsmanite moment. He then exchanged words with his opponent as Milan Kent was bemused by the reaction put up by Webster who's twenty years he's senior. The Dutchman shrug seemed to add fuel to the fire . I've just skipped there somewhere. Where do you sit on a gig? Where are you at? Well, I seen the interviews and it was said it wasn't him. He was saying no, not me, mate. Not mate. He said he and he said something like, I've shipped myself before and I've admitted to it. Don't I ndeed. Yeah, it's yeah, that's exactly right. Yeah, I think it is. Webster postin. Well when you play a guy who fights and sinks a stage out and then denies it then kick you when you you carry on playing the stories carrying throw because shit good luck for the future. That makes nice sense. It's like Fox read that. Yes, I don't know. Yeah, fuckin' yeah. I made a play on bud, you got a fight, you got a fight. It might have been the scorer. Yeah, it could have been could have been anyone could have been somewhere in the front road, depending on which way the winds blow. Then scorers holy fuck they can add up quick. Yeah , probably going to be a secmate . I'll be typing it in. Yeah All right, we'll go through the footy schools for this week. The footy games give some tips . I think they've been named the teams. Have they? Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I saw them I reckon I saw them earlier. All right, that'd be handy. First game will be Narthonite. First game is the Knights and Dragons . Prices on Ludbrooks will be as we follow here Rugby League NRL , dollar thirty the nights, three hundred and fifty the Dragons Again, these are all just so hard when you don't know who's going to come out of origin for some of these other games, but I'd lean the knights there thirty is pretty short, but the dragons players knights are playing too good, mate. They're not points in him haven't they? I think we're in trouble. Yeah, yeah. West Tigers three dollars ten dolphins are dollars thirty six Dolphins to get him and should win Titans three dollars ninety cents at home against penny Panthers who they could rest for their origin stars and still win a dividend normally rest. They do normally rest aren't they? Yeah, but they left clearing that out against Tigers and scored sixty eight. They did there no mercy rule in the pucker . Like they're going as good as I've ever seen them. They won that four in a row premiership . I reckon they're going as good. This will tell you what you where your bikes at. This will tell you where your halves are at. This is Titans. Look, if Pennith rolled out their top team, right? They might. I can't see it, but this will tell you where your titans, you know, your kinneys and your harrisons . This will tell you where they're at. Yeah, I think if we get within thirty it's a win against them after what they did. What mate what they've done all year they are good mate able. I'm not putting their mockers on the titans I just that with penrisside, he's right now. Oh yeah, no, we won't get no. We shouldn't get close to him . It'd be nice to have fifteen games when we've played three at home , the Titans. How does that work? Four, but one of them was Magic Ram bane. He's had three in the first fifteen rounds. How does that even incredible? It's incredible. It's fucking stupid, that's what that is. Yeah. It should be just week, week, week, week, week, wait. Yeah. You wouldn't think it would be that hard but anyway you'll see it seems it. Doggies two dollars ninety cents against manley a dollar forty two . I'd love to know who's in and out. It'll be a good game, that the dogs . Mainly a good butt mate at the moment Mainly a fucking real good yeah I think you got to go with the odds I think mainly get home but again it's gonna be played at the big stadium there's going to be fucking six people there Why aren't they getting played in Belmore? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Why isn't the game the other day with the rabbites, right? The Rabbitos game the other day where they did such a good job , right They did such a fucking good job and it was played at Oly thempic Stadium. Why wasn't it played at Redfern? Yeah. Are we not allowed to play at Redfern anymore? Is that the right? I don't know. I know I know the NRL always push for the NRL, especially in the finals, right? Mate, I agree, I just sink fuck you shoot if I could player they want. Red Fern Ivil, head down and watch the foot of Red Fern Ivil on a fucking Sunday afternoon whatever it's gonna be unreal. The local fuckin' bring it back. Yeah , don't. So are the Tigers gonna be moving their lie card games of Campbelltown? I'm assuming that would be something. Oh, I think actually I was talking to someone the other day. It'll be between that or I think they've played some of them at Yeah, that Paramedic one. Yeah , that's right. Like Paramedic get a good crowd there, can' yout go wrong there. Oh, that's a beautiful. It's a great stadium. But that fucking Olympic stadium for the bulldogs and rabbits to play in. They get fucking garnished Yeah, they get twenty thousand people there, which Lockart's probably capacity I don't know what is much it is so much better off three quarter half data being able to see it. Bring back fucking local footage. Each me. I reckon this morning. Take that fucking coffee harbor and why all the same. Sending games at Coffs and Sunny Coast. Yeah, I see a house package . Yeah that every day. Take it up to the fucking does me at him. Yeah, no , I'm the same. I just much rather see people on the ground like in school yeah . Warriors dollar thirty three over the cowboys three hundred and thirty five . I think you got to lean the warriors there . Yeah . Yeah, they'll get a bit to prove after last week with the yeah night source. Yeah, yeah, that'll be hard to beat Storma dollar thirty eight Canberra three hundred and five probably just I don't think that's pretty short, but I'd be leaning the leaning away of the storm at home making sure it's at home here. It's at Amy Park. I'll lean their way . And then the roosters are dollar forty eight sharks two hundred and sixty five . I'm assuming if everyone gets if everyone gets through the rooster Yeah for the roosters I'd be leaning that way . And Thursday night , you've got tomorrow night. You've got the under nine eans state of origin at North Sydney Oblival, so there' anothers fucking oil, North Sydney Aval. Take games in North Sydney. Yeah, great fucking food. Great. Great Footy Field. Agree. The old SCG sheds are there. Yeah, all the green roof there. That's all the old stuff from the SCG. They moved to it N offorth Sydney. Fucking could be they doing it there might? A hundred percent a hundred percent blue tongue. Blue tongues central cast. There's so many fucking rural states well not, that's not really rural, but so many smaller stadiums they could do this shit at. Yeah, yeah, mate. I'd just , yeah, I sit there and talk. All about the people aren't they the NRL? Honestly , rather fucking twenty thousand an empty study and watching them. Yeah, it's if you want to look at the future of the NRL, tune into that. I think it'll be on at seven thirty kicks off seven hundred and forty five . San playing in the channel see. Tajadi always but Tajadi will be playing five for Queensland Queensland Another product playing for the fuckin' range. He's old man must be livid . No, he like he was always Queensland too. So I mean fucking from Canberra. He's always been Queensland. That's he y. So yeah, watch them he's our boy Taji, but the rest of them, so many of these kids over the next two or three years are the ones that you'll be watching come through. So what ripping game. What didn't Zayn Harrison make I'd say probably two twenty now like nine eight turns if I missed that could be walking I would say because I think he played it two years he was on the bench two years in a row I think that woods from the dogs was like half back that pulled
