Haven't carry good.
Carry, Hello mate, welcome back, Happy year. Hey going, guys, I think we've spoken since last year. How has it been, new coach? We had Kevy in here the other day. Actually looks as fit as a fiddle. But Madge has had you guys for the whole of the off season. What's it been like?
It's been good to Madge. I'm lucky. I didn't get to come back until January. So the boys been at it. They started first week in November and I think everyone's just excited to play some footing now.
To be honest, has it been Has it been a tougher off season than previous ones?
Like do you feel, fiddle?
What feels different?
They're all they're all tough, Like every team has like a tough preseason. But yeah, this one's been pretty solid. Just big days and yeah, make sure we kind of cover all the bases. So there's been plenty of made of the boys spewing around training of that. So they've yeah, they've been getting.
Bigger spewing, like like to ga spewing. Yeah, like my biggest loser spewing.
Yeah, but not you know what I mean, not to lose weight.
Oh, if I'm going to know. I've never pushed myself hard enough to spew.
Now, yeah, there's been maybe a night comic buckets getting around, but true, no, we will read the wards and now the boys aren't really good in the trial so.
Well, I was at you played in that Redcliffe game at Redcliffe rather yeah, the game of Games Canterbury. I mean, I know it's only a trial, but it is that it was the first time we got to see the new combination of the Scrum based with Reno and Hunt there and I thought, you guys look pretty impressive, Like it's better to win a trill than lose a troll, Like it's going to.
Give you the big score difference, wasn't it?
Did you smash?
It's funny when you say new combo and Reno and Hunt you're both like forty five years old.
Exactly were you telling me you were speaking to Ben Hunt? Because you coming back home and he's he'll know everyone. But what was that thing that he told you?
Well, I don't think he played with he's played with any of you guys. He said he played with Corey Oats, who's obviously done and dusted. Now, like, I don't think Ben Hunt was playing with any of you guys.
I've never played with him at then've never played well, those are left in the year after the Grand Fire. I think the left in twenty sixteen, which is like kind of the our we started to roll in. Okay, Yeah, os was the last one he'd kind of played with. I've obviously got to play with from an origin level.
Yeah.
Right, he looks like a to be honest. They're bringing back all the photos of him and he looks the same as he does he does.
He's one of those he's on the Demimore sir.
I think he's more attractive. I think he's Demi Mooring.
He can't say that while in a bed, You can't.
I can say what I want in a bed about Ben Hunt. Okay we have history. Okay, we have history. I can say that. I can say that about him.
But you tune to go at it like we've got to taste of it in Vegas over the weekend. It's back now like these as competition points. This is this is for real and the roosters at home in Sydney on Thursday night, it's two sleeps away, Like, what's the feeling like in the camp?
Yeah, it's good. It's kind of you get to this time where everyone gets a bit antiit training and it's like, finally get diverse another team and stop taking out on each other. So yeah, we fly out later today. So yeah, the boys are keen. And I've never played at Ali and so yeah, that new stadium, I've never played there, so we always get it looks pretty cool. Yeah, it looks.
Fancy, surely. Like I know, we did Vegas last year, right, that was great? Like you were there, I was there. We were both there. We both experienced at Patrick. But there was a part of me saying I'm glad I'm not in Vegas this year.
And that's you.
That was me, right, And like I didn't even play, but I was like, I'm glad I'm not there this year, and I reckon, there's a part of the guys that were there last year. Okay, we did that. We've had a bit of a quite a like you know, walk up, start to the app to round one. I imagine you're pretty happy about this is your you know, this is the twenty twenty five version of you. Guys.
Well, probably for different reasons. We're both happy.
It's the same reason, but were the Yeah, but.
Yeah, that is there's like such a big especially on the back of twenty three when we obviously lost the GM and then you rolled into Vegas the first time. There was such a big occasion. There was so much emphasis put on it.
So sorry about that.
By the way, to kind of sneak up a bit and just kind of roll in and get to be at home and get ready for round one is pretty good too. But they put on a show. I've seen the Panthers Sharks game. It looks pretty good. And I heard the Poms drank all the beer.
