But what did you just say?

I think we should get chickens with bigger as.

Live sports and laughter right across your weekend.

Don't call in Frosty.

Chris Warren is here to preview the action as Kronella take on the Roosters tonight at Industry Group Stadium in Gosford. Frosty got Eddy Goodying leaving and I'm in a studio with three police.

Yeah, when we actually went up there a couple of times in court before you. I think up there the Pendith games. I think they they used to take games. Don't know they still do?

Are you used to that?

She's playing up there?

For I was thinking about.

God and now onto gb Sydney for BC Brisbane and network stations across Australia. It's time for the Continuous Call Team.

It certainly is good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome along to the Harvy Norman Interactive Studio for a week Saturday, afternoon and night with the Continuous Call Team as we continue on with the NRL. After a great night on Wednesday, if you're a new South Wales supporter the Blues beating the Marines by eighteen points to six in front of a capacity crowd at sun Corps Stadium in Brisbane, the new South Wales coach Lourie Daily will join us in the first hour of the program. The Blues one up in the series and we had to opt the stadium in Perth on Wednesday, the eighteenth of June for Game two before we wrap up the series in Sydney at a cool stadium. We'll get the team's thoughts on Origin. On Wednesday night. We'll also have a chat about Game three of the women's State of Origin series, the Queenslanders salvaging some pride with eighteen fourteen victory over the Blues at McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle played in front of another great crowd, which just goes to show the rise and rise of the women's game. So well done to all involved there. And in the NRL last night at Cogra twenty points to six the Dragons over the Newcastle Knights. We'll have a closer look at that for you as well. Three games today three o'clock will update the Schools and the Titans and the Storm five point thirty old call the game between the Cowboys and West Tigers, and later on tonight a full call as well with the team Manly taking on the Brisbane Broncos. You'll hear the late two games with the continuous call team. And look, I think everyone's sick and tired of talking about the whole lockey Galvin situation, but it's done. He's signed, he'll delivered. He's a bulldog. Congratulations to him on his new deal and I think he just needs to focus on his foot. He don't worry about all the noise, just worry about football and he'll continue to rise and rise as a terrific young playmaker that he is. We'd love to hear from you this afternoon one three one eight seven three the number you can email us at two GB dot com or four BC dot com dot Au and you can text us zero four six zero eight seven three eight seven three. Well, it's been a big week for the Continuous Call team, but we are ready to rock and roll.

We are going to rise to the.

Occasions we always do at this time of the year. Although Darrell walked in today a little flat because he's beloved, Queenslanders were beaten and beaten convincingly on Wednesday.

I did arrive a little flat. But you're a little flat too, because you've give yourself a hammering overnight.

I went out a couple of minutes.

Yes, so, and you probably deserved it because you've had a big well a few months actually. But Hi, everybody, Hell alanis get a gal all our punters out there, thanks for listening into this great show. I did watch the footy last night. Jeez, I thought it was an average game of footy. I don't know what happens with the Knights. I mean, Caln Ponger has had a great season, but jeez, they miss him. They just showed very little last night. Fletcher Sharp doesn't do it, no one else does for them, so they're just I don't know, just falling out completely out of contention. I know they probably weren't in it anyway, but they did win last week and it looked okay. But she was our average last night. The Dragons, to their credit, they keep they keep turning up. I mean, they could be way better off in this competition. They've lost three games by a point and they could be right up near the top. But they've they've done well with what they've got. Clint Gartherson just continues. You get the same effort from him week in week out. Clint Garthson, he's just a great, great player at club level. Probably should have played a bit more rep football, but didn't you know, I thought he was great. Thul Kyle Flanagan was good last night playing half back as well. So looked at a lot of good players. The big Loco Junior was it pacific at what about him again? He is a unit and he's only a boy, and he's going to get You would think he's going to get better and better. So I thought he was great. But they all played pretty well. I thought the night's very few of them I could think would walk away happy with what they dished up last night. But you know, after the State of Origin on Wednesday.

Is probably a little bit disappointing that game, all right, Darrel, think it's a good stuff for me.

I am going to say this off the top, please do I'm disappointed on your behalf and I'm expecting there to be some form of Big Man's blast at some point this afternoon. It's one of the great Queenslanders. They've got a new wall at sun Corpse Stadium, Ladies and on them with plugs of all the great players that have worn that maroone Jumper, Arthur Beatson, Cameron Smith, the list goes on. Was brought to my attention during the week by Peter fig and our breakfastation on four BC. The Darryl Briman's name has been spelled incorrectly on the Wall of Fame for Queensland.

Is it spelled b r O M A N b r O h A M. It's funny.

Peter Vegan actually sent me a photo of it and I didn't notice it at first. Then I thought, oh, yeah, that's right, that's not right out.

What's going on there?

Now?

They'll fix it made, I'm sure they will. They'll try and get it right. There's actually someone else who they had there. I can't remember who it was, but they stuffed up in the times or dates he played they had I don't know what they had that nineteen ninety eight to seventeen, you know, three or something, so.

They had another one they stuffed.

I don't think Darryl I need to employ Middow.

Absolutely, statistics are at a four year old child that knows how to spell someone's name correctly, that'd be nice. In fact, I'm calling on the Queensland Premier, David Christoph fully he's a good man, and Tim Manner, the Sports Minister, the former n R Royal referee, to give you an apology on the floor of Parliament at some point this year as a disgraceful act against Queensland. Is not spelling the Big March. It's not that big a deal. It's a big deal and we should be leading. Every news bullowed them with this. Daryl Briman's name is spelled incorrectly at sun Corpse Stadium, Paul Gallon's here.

Hell, I got good aftern and everybody too. It's a bigger deal. The Queensland crowd and what's going on there?

Mate? They were boring.

Let me tell you they were beaten. That's what I was there, But not just that. You know how hostile it is from me out there? Okay, they get a security go to walk around with me and Andrew Johns.

I was getting photos and I'm the same one, joh I'm talking multiple multiple photos with Queensland is in Queensland Jerseys.

I got asked to sign Queensland Jerseys. It was ridiculous. He had kids.

I kid you, if it was it wasn't a kid, if he wasn't under twelve, I wouldn't have done it. Okay, but I did do it because if I said that a kid, I'll get in trouble somewhere. But but they talk about a weird environment that they look Joey and everyone sort of carried on about the game, and I understand what they're saying. But for me, just the whole environment wasn't hostile at normal is. It wasn't loud, It was just it was dull, to be honest with that. When they even when the Blues ran out, there was a bit of a boob but it.

Wasn't on the side. You no hammering on the side, not a single hammering on the side. As I said, I can't believe. Yeah, it is. It was very It was unbelievable.

It's as if the Queenslanders knew even before kick off that they were going to get pumped.

It was. It was weird. It was a weird situation.

Even when Spencer Lenu went on the field, when he got to the goal area, there was a little bit of a few guys sitting up, but not with the whole crowd. Absolutely ripped some tears, ripped shreds off you. They did nothing and then obviously the Queens has kicked away from me, in which.

I'll thought was a bit of a message within itself. They was scared.

That was silly, silly, but I mean, yeah, the Bluys were so the best thing for the Queens and his evert was a scoreboard. Honestly, the Blues should have won by thirty. They should have absolutely pumped them, but they didn't. But the Blues will get better, Queens and will get better. It's gonna be good, still be good. Yeah, So they were scared of Spincerling.

I think they were. You think the players, I think they were.

What tell me, tell me, why wouldn't a bloke who on the front page of the paper the day before. The headline says, smash this grub, smash this grub. He's gone after one of your greatest ever Queenslanders. You got the big, tough front roll four pack of the Queensland side with the ability to have one bloke running straight into third end on his own, and they kicked away from him.

I'm just playing the devil's advocate either. You think they were only just come on the field, right, yes, just think they may not have known that he was on the field and they kicked that way.

The other times they kicked away from him because they didn't want to tackle him.

This is.

I'm you're backing. Are you saying as well that they were scared that they're scared of Spencer?

Why would you why? It's exactly what Gal said. Why would you not kick it to Leny? You if you're Queensland, why would you not that? There's no other reason.

I'll tell the other thing. That was quite funny.

Someone actually asked me about what would happen if Spencer Leny was to go j tonight.

I said, tearing that's origin night mane. I'm not sticking up for him tonight.

Maybe if there was another game where he's playing at club level.

You know you piggy, but let me tell you Origin J T. You do your best son.

Hello mate, how are we guys? Yeah, I'm still pumped from Origin. I'll tell you what, I would love a little bit more oragin niggle I reckon that might have played into it. There wasn't much in the lead up from any of the coaches. Then you think that before, but it was pretty chill in the lead up, and then the crowd wasn't as vulgar as what they usually are. No one, no one, No one started a fight, like if you're down, if you're down by that much, do something, Queens do something. I thought was the only one that had a little bit of mongrel the whole game. To be honest, if you're not winning, go rowe l.

I really enjoyed the first half. The second half was a bit of a scrap that wasn't it.

Second half of the few eras bit scrappy.

At what point during the game did you ever think that Queensland was in control?

Never, you know, the only time where I was concidered.

Look, I've been there before, and I've seen it all before and been there, and I was a bit concerned when we're down to twelve men and Vou kicked the kick from the sideline to go in at fourteen to two, so only twolve points behind. With ten minutes the start of the second half, down to twelve men, I thought this could give some confidence, but they had they had nothing. They didn't threaten us at all, even with twall men, didn't really created the overlaps.

It was, It wasn't. It wasn't a real Queensland.

Luck performed that that I'm used to and obviously once he comes, once we're back to thirty on thirteen and that they'll never hope.

I think Channel nine, I think you guys gave men to the match to Paying Harsh We Darryl gave he's to Zach Lomax. I thought they they both played.

Well, him and Stephen Crichton as well. That that combination Lomax and Crichton defensively off the rails. Lomax obviously an attack as well, but their tip on their timing perfect.

That's the second runner.

I tell you what's crazy, the fact that in the lead up to this we're saying if Tommy Turbo's fifth, you've got to put him in. Well, it wouldn't matter. If he goes and plays the best two games of his life, you can't put him in. Can you?

Do you think exact? Do you think Zach Lomax is sitting back after now a couple of Origin games thinking, you know what, maybe I am.

He needs to have long put himself in the mirror in the game he played, he's the best game in the game.

I remember on this, I think one foty last year and he played one or two games that if he stays on the wing, I'm picking in from yourself. Well, just before an even day bude for the Blues and look at him now, he's the best wing in the comp He's second run of the game, the second hit up of the game, he took the bound straight over in front roll like he was so big and so strong and so powerful, hard to handle. I don't understand why they got he or he or anyone's got the stigma about being on the wing or playing in the centers.

Wings.

Yeah, money mats, maybe money, but let me tell you, wingers these days do more than centers. I reckon the tide might start a term where maybe we might see wingers earning more money than centers.

Because at the end of the day, they do do more work.

Than them if they if they change the money side of things, I bet your bottom dollar it you're right, they do do more.

Darryl, just away from origin for a second. You'll remember we were on air last week and you were quite vocal about the leaves that were on the playing surface at Carrington Park.

Yes, and you suggested that it should be.

Discussed on the Boner Report that Luke Boner does on the overnight program. He spoke to me yesterday and I actually heard this during the week. This is a little of what Luke said in respect of your impersonation of him. Can I just say a quicker load to one of my biggest fans, Darryl Braman, to know you listen, big man, I am.

I am so flattered to know you. That impersonation wasn't great.

You'll work on that.

And can I just say this.

I'm on the Batist Regional Council and they're going to get a team of leaf blowers to make sure that that disgraceful mess of leaves doesn't happen again.

I'm I'm onder it. There you go. Yeah, he's a man of action.

I have heard him a lot on the radio, usually about four o'clock in the morning when he comes and does the Boner Report. Have you ever heard the Boner Report?

Yeah?

Actually, I can't believe he's listening to You're right anyway, Well, there's a few leaves between the dead ball and twenty.

Happened? They got cleaned off. I can't believe. And who organized that big man? The big man?

No, the referee, the referee. The referee because you told him to is no longer the referee. Who'd you text?

Graham man?

Asley said it was.

They were NRL approved nonstick leaves, but all of a sudden, as we're about to get closer to keep off out, they come.

To believe Well, as you know, a lot of the other leaves just fall into they try and be part of the non stick leaves.

They try to be just some people sort of file in in groups and try not to be seen. Well, that's what happens to the nonstick leaves.

I just I just feel now that most ground managers will be petrified of Darryl's take on their grounds and they'll be making sure all the Anaurroal grand managers looking at all the lines, looking at the grass, looking at the leaves, making sure that it is pristine for an arrow.

They should be, it should be. I mean it's not that. How much very much better did it look after they blow and blow them off? I thought it anyway? What was the word to use last week? The word looks? It looks rustic, rusty, rust look rustic and they're out there in baths. I thought I thought it looked good. Dump it did not. I'm glad they blew them off.

Right underway three one eight seven three the number two GB dot com click under the feedback. I will take it break when we return. The new South Wales coach Lourie Daily will join us here on the continuous call. Tame I'm three one eight seven three is the number I'm with Gallon Alana, says Nathan. Queensland are absolutely scared of Spencer Lennie up the blues and love the show.

Gee are hitting you guys, good way to Laurie comes on. I'm going to tell him what you've said. I'm going to send it to Sonny. Sonny Bill, Well, what's it going to about it? It's gonna tell.

It's an early dribble.

Are you all right? Queens lost it and there's the proof right there.

And you're a shadow of your former self.

Queens lost. Big news here from Roger We need hot dog, hot dog hords Cobb.

Can I ask you this like genuine question daily Cherry Evans. That's one of the big talking points to come out of it. Have they got as far the time caught up with him?

I might have, but I think he's done an to probably be if he doesn't get injured to be selected in the second game.

Do you think he did enough in game one to I don't think it was his fault, though.

I agree, you know, I don'd stick up for Queenslanders and and I other always got on well with DC, but when we're not tight, major stick up for him publicly. But at the end of the day, when you're forwards again, absolutely beat up, absolutely trampled, and give me the Blues are making sixty means a set. They were trampling the Queensland forwards and then vice versa, they're making about forty. So when you got no field position, no room to play off the back of your forwards, it's very very hard for him.

I agree, I agree with that. I agree with that part, and they did get decimated through the middle. But I still thought Monthster tried to turn up more than DC.

He did.

Months are even kicked more than DC. How many years have we watched Origin and you compare daily Cherry Evans to Nathan Cleary. Cherry Evans has kicked, kicked the ki kicked him out of trouble how many times? And that's been the part we didn't even see that money Cameron Monster kick daily. I think he's done.

I reckon he's not when you think about if they do leave him out right, Muster did try to kick the other, but he hasn't got the best kicking game.

So and what's the other the half back.

Stadd didn't should be a six, not a seven. But also he is the future.

Yeah, he's a future, but he's kicking game is not great either. Now DC is probably going to stand up and kick a little bit better. But again I can't blame him for the other night. Therefore were decimated.

He hasn't been playing well at club. He didn't play well.

It's just their whole spine, and that's what so confident. Their whole spine.

DC hasn't been playing with Pong has been ordinary. Harry Grant has played fourteen minutes in about five weeks.

Like I just think their spine was But then you look at the other side we had. We had Lomax and Toto, two players that missed what was at six weeks. They played one game and they came out and absolutely blitzed it. So there is the difference the middle. They fix up the middle of the field and that puts everyone else in a bit better.

Right, What about Joe. Queensland just doesn't get on.

As well. Leaders don't get it.

Hey always love the show. Queenslanders are finished, their days are done and go to it's good And finally we've got short memories of New South Wales.

We care how we should. There's only one millers or three in the water.

One for now people, one in a row baby. That's eight seven three the number t GV dot com. Click onto the feedback icon just on the Queensland harms. This is what Andrew John's had to say.

I thought Ponger and Munster, DC and Harriets that was probably the worst game I've seen Harry play. Probably big decisions to be made by Billy where he does does go, but look, no one boots Father time and DC is what thirty seven I think. I think that's a bull the trigger and bring dadon in. But I don't know where the improvement comes with this group. As Gus said, I think New South Wales tonight it was a solid win. If they were on tonight, they win by forty or fifty. They left so many tries out there and they'll be better for that. So this group here, I don't know if they can go up another level of Queensland. So I think there has to be changes. Well, Corey Haws for one, I think he can add something Joe Arrah as an Origin player.

But the big one is dead. Whether they pulled the trigger.

On Dead News, if Andrew johnes there on nine's coverage the other night, we'll take a quick break other side of this. Hopefully Laurie Day will be joining us. We're just standing by the link up with the New South Wales coach. You will join us after this. Well, the dominant start of the New South Wales Origin series with them one up against the Queenslanders. This is how it all unfolded on Wednesday nights.

State of Origin twenty twenty five, Get one.

There's the kick off State of Origin twenty twenty five is underway. Pull played bagline New South Wales. I played pass away to playing half. It's tackle five. He gives them back to Magon Cleary headl send.

What a victory under Lorrie Daily? Can I take the one? They'll lead the part when they can claim the shield again.

And it was great to see the Blues coach Lorry Daily all smiles on Wednesday night. I'm delighted to say he's on the line right now. Lurie, congratulations do you.

Yeah, thanks very much.

Mark.

It was a good first half performance, but yeah, you take any win once you get up there in Quinnway.

A few things to tidy up, you know, especially in that second half. But Gi, you must have been happy with some signs, especially some of the performance as individuals pay hass Zach Lomax Isaiah. There are a few standouts out there for the Blues.

Yeah, it was and in particular you mentioned pain like pain, didn't train at all during the week, and you know, we're unsure of whether he'd play or not, but he you know, day before the game he said he was right to go. So well done to the medical stuff. They got him right. So coming off of preparation to play fifty eight minutes and to play the way he did was Yeah, just a credit to him. And then Zach Lamax of course has only had one game back too from a broken foot, but he was able to put in a terrific effort. It's got to be better for game two as well.

Well. I thow all youman.

It was absolutely outstanding. Obviously playing hassles me in the match. But Mits Barnette for me was a little bit of a long sung hero, particularly in the first half. And Isaiaho he look, he's known as a bit of a ballplan lock, but he sort of put the ballplane away partickl in the first half, just played like an extra middle.

I thought he was great as well.

Yeah, we sort of challenged the forwards a little bit gal just to be sort of playing straight and just to be sort of go out there and try and establish some dominance in the in the middle of the field. Sometimes when you get to an origin game. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but you know, we didn't look to move the ball. We just wanted to make sure we got into the contest early and found our way and found our rhythm and then sort of we were hoping that the game would open up a little bit, but they started strongly and that was that we spoke about. And you're right, Barney was terrific and Isaiah looked to run first instead of passing, and I thought he was a great captain's knock.

I actually wanted to ask you something quite similar was about, and it was about Yo's running game, but then also the trickle on effect. I thought we saw Cleary running a lot too, which was dangerous. But it wasn't that usual Penrith style or footy. It was a bit different. Was that the plan as well, like Cleary taking into consideration go into that game one.

Yeah, it was not so much not a Penrith plan, but it was more about the way we wanted to play. And we've been to Lang Park before and you know, it doesn't matter how you get a victory. Any victory up there is going to be tough and you can look pretty, but you can't come away with the points of time. So we just had to grind it out. We had to be tough and courageous. I thought we did that. Yeah, but looking back on the second half, we defended our line really well and I think we can get a lot better than what we were in game one.

Laurie, your former captain, Paul Gallon's made some big statements today on this show which you may or may not be happy with. One as he said, Queensland is and air Soft in general in general? Did you say that that's the crowd? And then he said the Queensland players are now scared of Spencer line.

Do you think they are?

Look?

Look, I love goal.

I'll enter into that debate.

Okay, I don't expect you to, but I just want you to know no, no, no, I just text Billion told him.

Yeah, he replied, this.

Big man, he loves me.

I think it was.

It was a good, tough game of foot and as I said before, anytime you go up to Queensland to win, I mean, you know, history suggests that you know it was always going to be a tough battle because it was the first time we've on back to back games here in twenty seven years, so you know that's a that's a.

We now want three in a row, which is a pretty good effort. Not only just but I mean that won the last two last year and this one.

Yeah.

No, they're a pretty special group. But as we spoke about after the game, you've got to enjoy little milestones, but you can't get well, you can't take your mind away from what you need to do, and that's to win the series. So we got two more games that we need to be a lot better in than what we were in game one. And we all know that Corysland, where they've been pacing the face, they come back again, So yeah, it's not over by a long stretch, and will need to be better in game two.

Mat I was really pleased for Max King when he got on because he was sort of probably a little bit of a surprise selection, and you know, I think he was surprised he made the side, but I thought he was certainly wasn't there a place in that caliber.

Of football, was he? No?

I think his style of foot he really suits it. You know, he's not the flashest, flashiest of players, but what he does is very selfless like you look at his lines bured you look at the way he holds the middle together, look at when he makes it tackle, he gets back into the line, works hard from mark, does his job with the ball, He's always there in a kick chase, and all the little efforts that you talk about being origin players, that's what Max brings to a footy team. So we wanted to include including based on what we thought the game was going to be like and what he could provide to the team.

All right, what did you take from the build up and the postgame?

Los?

Can you give? Can you give the listeners? Just finally a bit of an idea of how full on it is because there's a lot of media, there's a lot of commitments. You're still doing interviews made it must take it out of here.

Yeah it does.

I'm still recovering today, to be perfectly honestly, just been lying on the lounge. I slept for probably fourteen hours on Thursday.

What is that unusual for someone to do that?

But yeah, now.

It's a funny one because you do, you get drained of all your energy and you got to build yourself back up again. But I can't my head off to the players that have played this weekend and the players have played last night, because you know the amount of energy and effort they put into the game and what we do coaches where for togue, I can only imagine how they're fatigue mentally and physically as well. So yeah, they're they're brave, they're tough, and world done to them for backing up this weekend.

I reckon in between, in particularly so mentally. I mean physically, it's one of the hardest environments you can play in, but when you don't win that game, it is so mentally draining. And four homes to back up last night others would be effort by the young men.

I'll give a queen's letter right there. I thought he's done well.

I agree.

I think it's it's it's so hard and the amount of emotion that goes into a contest like an Origin game. It's not like an NRL game. It's it's like a Grand final, and you know, to come back two days later and in the conditions that they're in last night, and you know the players are going to play today and they'll be stiff and sore, but they know the importance of playing well for their clubs, and the clubs help them get to where they are. So it's a responsibility of theirs to go back and play well and show those players in their team that the team colors mean something to them as well, not only playing and representing New South Wales of Pointsland, but the club is so important.

Hey, Los just quickly. Did any of the boys in particular, obviously Nathan and Zach Lomax say anything about the footy, because Joey was going on about it during the match. He thought that it was a little bit off. Obviously he missed all four conversions, but a genuine question because Joey missed him. At the end of the game, he wanted to chat to Nathan Cleary. Was there anything different about the Stephen, Yeah.

I'm unsure, but it does seem unusual that there was a lot of goal kicks missed, doesn't it, You know, like when they're really good kickers. I think Nathan was kicking it ninety two percent leading into the origin. Zach's a dead eye dick as well, with the way that he kicks. He missed one and I think Val missed one as well.

So Joey said during the call, it sounded different he's pretty in tune with stuff like that too.

Yeah, I was going to say he'd know more about it than what I would. And I think there was some chatter in and around the ball, but I'm unsure of what it was or how they felt. But at the end of the day, I know that they were disappointed that they missed those kicks and I'll put the effort in leading into game too.

All right, Larry, thanks for the chat mate, Get back to the races. I'm sure you're trying to find a few winners. Well, mate, I was going to back a thing in Melbourne today, Jimmy the Bear, but I haven't had a look that there was no money for it yesterday.

That's that's a singer of the place. Yeah, we go down to the oh.

If I get anything, I'll send through and.

We'll do the same. Thank you, Larry. Well then on the win on Wednesday night, mate, Thank you. There is Lory Daily Jesus just too likable, the two cakees. It's Billy and just give us something something. I interviewing a lot of politicians at the moment. That's one of the greatest straight bats I've heard from Lorry about Gal's criticism of the Queenslanders. Mate, you don't need to fire them up.

I wasn't the only one who said it. Every single person said have you seen in the over social media? It's been everywhere.

Must you know what actions speak louder than words? Action speak loud. I will say this down. You haven't.

You haven't taken the defeat very well at all.

I think it's actually an awful thing to say about the Queensland players that they're scared of Spencer.

What do They kicked him but probably didn't know he was on the place. They probably didn't know it was on the field. You just said you'd only been on for a second. Ye, he's been changed your plans completely just to kick to him. They kicked that way the first time. Why didn't he run over that side? Why didn't he run over there?

Because there's already someone there was already. Now you're saying Spencer, then you're scared to run.

I'm not saying that.

There's a headline tomorrow, ladies and gentlemen. Former New South Wales captain says Queensland is scared of Spencer. We're after a break back with more. All right, that's enough for GiB We're spoking about origin.

Got something I want to bring up to you. I'm not sort of superstitious in any way, shape or form. I don't think I am anyway. Maybe little things, maybe I am. But I got an issue and I don't know how you guys would handle this. Where we stayed the other night, it was really nice. I've got the place we stayed, and I won't mention it was was fantastic and accommodation was good.

But I got a bit.

Distressed when I waked into the room. The room wasn't rectangular. It wasn't a square.

It was like it was like a try had four sides but one the length length well no, no, but the length on one end was say, let's say it was three meters long. And then as you walk down and got to the windows, the windows was about a meter and a half. Well, it was actually it was like a corner room, wasn't it. It was?

It was four sided, but once the sides were all different measurements, you know what I'm saying. And when I laid in the bed, it was on an angle to the other wall, which just threw me a little bit.

So it's not superstitious, but I just say, if you just didn't feel comfortable.

So this is your room here, there's a square there, and your bed would normally be perpendicular to the walls. So you're a little bit so I don't understand what you mean. I know the exact type of rooms you're talking about.

That would I mean one of that and one of the walls wasn't parallel to the other one, so your bed was bed was on a bit of an angle here.

That's awful.

Yeah, I know no one can see this angle. Well, the TV was on an angle compared to where the bed was, so to speak. So I was a bit I wasn't disoriented, but I was just a bit off basically, didn't like it. Did all the windows close because you make the room pitch black. Because the room was pitch black. I could cate with that. I'll get away over it.

You know.

I don't close the windows to pitch black. I close the curtains. Yeah, the windows open, the windows. I like the windows open.

Antagonized.

I liked the windows openly because I like to get a bit of fresh air.

You know.

The air conditioning was fine, but I do like a bit of fresh air. But but I'm just saying the room I was in and I haven't really noticed it before, was just on. It was just funny angles.

Do you like that?

I don't think I had it. I know exactly what he's talking about. It's like building out's a bit of a obviously not a rectangle shades a bit awkward and the corner you're stuck in the corner. That's what you're stuck in the corner. I do understand what it means.

Do you when you get in your room, do you take like a good open your bag?

I don't know what you care any but do you hang up your clothes if you're going away for a couple of days like to Brisbane for example, like we was the way two days, you just leave them in your bag or anything.

If I was going away for a week, yeah, probably would. Or if I was going to say, I knol back in the day where you do there for a while, Yes, would you put your reggies in the draw a chair?

Not? No, I didn't know I was there for two nights.

No way, no way, no, I would.

Did you do it?

I've got it. I've got issue with hotel rooms. You know the communal pillows that go on the bed so filthy. Don't touch them, don't touch them.

Don't touch them because I what of the pillows you sleep? From doing the.

Morning show before, I had a little sleep in the afternoon and the doors ripen in my little area, and I watched the ladies take the communal pillows off, put them on the floor. They changed the pillow, slips on the other pillows, change the bed. They put the communal pillows back on the bed, close the door and wait, it was so they don't clean.

Well, I don't think they should.

You know, also what I think should change the pillow.

There's no way they do that.

That's what I'm saying. They should.

I do even just think pillows are gross, like if someone is sleeping and and they're a bit grubby.

And I've never ever thought about this every time it's disgusting. I've never thought about for new pillows. Every time you new pillows, you take your own pillow.

I tell you what I do. I take and oversized. Well, the thing that I like at the moment is just like a really comfy jarmy shirt almost and I take it. No, I put it over the pillow. I wrap the pillow because I just think it's filthy that someone else's heads sweaty or just they've got a cough and they split in it like they just they only change.

The Darryl for the communal pillows that are on the bed. If someone's coughing and spluttering and sneezing while they're asleep on said communal pillow, of course they should.

Be communal pillows. I would think wouldn't be on the bed when you're sleep and you throw them on the floor. You don't sleep with the communal pillows. Disgusting this guy, You know what, big man, that's you're pretty smart for you do you don't sleep pillows? I throw them on the floor. But I agree, So why should they be changed every time? I'm with you now, Sonny Bill? But what about?

What about when the communal pillows are better than the normal pillows on the bed, which is the case at the hotel we stayed at no negatives?

All right?

One three three the number zero full six zero eight seven three eight seven three. We're talking communal pillows, yes, off the back of origin a break back with more. Well, there's a number of messages coming through on hotel pillows, Gibbrah's. They are decorative pillows only useful to put behind your sleeping pillow if you're sitting up in bed. From Roz High Team is a former police officer. I cannot describe to you at a hotel room looks like under a UV light. If you know what I mean, it's a starting to beholden enough to turn you off.

No one's going to travel. Sometimes you've just got to grid it, grin and bears. Just if you're gonna go to a hotel room. Just trust me.

You've never got to a hotel room late on the bed thought.

In my life.

I promise you right now, I've never got into hotel God, I'm going to think that next time, next.

Time we go away for I can't wait to text.

You so you might get scared and go into girl's room.

Absolutely not.

That these communal pillows that you speak of actually the cushions.

High Team.

When I started a hotel or motel, the first thing I do is clean the TV remote control. I always have disinfectant wipes, and I've seen what the remote ends up like in lab tests from Paul.

But these people are ruining. Do you know what?

That's a good shout, because when you go in your room. The TV is always on, so you have to touch the remote to at least turn it off, even if you're not going to watch Telly.

We're promoting germophobes on the show.

Sure we are.

I'm going to go. I don't My TV is not always.

And then you scan the QR cod for room service.

That's imagine the state of the former league hotels where you can book by the hour.

Definitely have the TV.

Yeah, the cheap ones, why wouldn't they?

We have the continuous call them.

Just before we get to the news, Dave says, guys, I never have a cup of tea in my room as people bore their underwear in the kettle to clean them. And Steve says, I always carry two cans of Glenn twenty and spray everything from top to bottom. Jeez, we have created some German folks. This afternoon, we've got to break for some years back with our next hour. Yeah, our thirty ninth year on air. Great, have you with us on this Saturday afternoon. The number to join in one three one eight seven three. You can email us at two GB dot com or four BC dot com tod Au, and you can text us zero four six zero eight seven three eight seven three. We've got a game getting underway in the next fifty minutes the Titans and the Storm. Jalen DeGroot is out with the hamstring strain. Aj Brimson is also out due to a head knock for the Titans, so that's prompted a few changes while for the Storm, I can tell you that Xavier Coach and Harry Grant won't be backing up from Origin, so they are late scratch there for the Storm. So there's a few changes there to the Storm. So we'll update the scores on that as we take you around the grounds. Thanks to our mates at McDonald's on the program of course, Wednesday night, New South Wales beat Queensland eighteen points to six. If you missed our chap with Lori Daily, we'll put that up on the two g billion four BC websites for you. And on Thursday night the Maroons beat the women eighteen fourteen the Blues side and the women's Origin series, but the Blues claim that by two games to one, while in the NRL the Dragons over the Nights by twenty points to six and just on the injury front thanks to d Pete Jaden Sewer so from an ankle injury midway through the first half. He didn't return after scoring the first try. He'll be off to have some scans, but coach Flanagan hopefully it was only a low grade Cindusmosis and Sewer would only miss one to two weeks. As for the night's nothing to report. Although Adam O'Brien and Kaylen Ponger weren't too happy with the draw.

He was doing everything he could. I took the decision away from him because it's the right thing to do. And I know, you know, Val backs up and he's a center and Caitlin had a pretty rough week up there, ten days where he's trying to get that ankle right for origin and it's the type of injury that takes a few a few days to settle down. So two days is not enough, you know. And he's disappointed a little bit angry with me, but again we've got to protect. Look, we lost to the in this battle. We lost to the scheduling and the draw.

We got.

Someone's got to play Friday, Okay, we get that, but then they give us next Thursday as well, hit us again. So it would have been three games in eight days. Well, that's not looking after our players. So if I had to step in and I had to look after and always knew once the drawer came out on you that we copped the Friday after Origin and then when they it would have been good if someone said, hey, let's give him a Saturday or Sunday the following week. But whatever does the drawers either hasn't lived it or doesn't care. Yeah, so I don't know which one it is. But you know you've got You've got teams like Camber still haven't had a boy yet, and then you've got other teams that haven't left home in seven games.

In a row.

It's ridiculous. So anyway, the drawer that didn't have anything to do with the way we've played.

Them all, well, if they're going to play those three games in eight days whatever he says, it's hard to be critical of what Adam O Brian's saying. But I suppose that's the way the cookie grumbles, isn't it.

Yeah, it is unfortunately.

I mean I think we've asked any every club at start. There wouldn't be too many clubs that would be tally happy with their draw So I do agree with him they playing three games and eight days for Calumpong was a bit too much to ask.

And if they're playing this Friday, I just said someone has to play Friday. But the backup six days lad is a big as so I do understand his frustration.

If they win last night, it's not an issue, but because they lost, it's an issue. So Judiciary update as well for Brighton's lawyers with the over fifty years of experience there on, they're the lawyers you need on your side. Two charges Tyson Frazell a thousand dollars fine for a careless high tackle on Toby Couchman. The big one though, is Leoomson crush your tackle four games with an early plea for a tackle on Hamish Stewart.

So that, judiciary, you must have loading. Did you see the one the other day that I did? I thought that was a bad one. That was the worse one if seen was defin.

I come in third and subsequent eventually okay.

But that was that was the definition of a crush tackle. We got two weeks.

They did graded a grade too though last night anyway, well.

Grade two was the same as one the other last week, So yeah, obviously you must have loading.

All right, what have you got for us?

I was just wanting I want to ask our listeners and you guys, if you've taken people out, you know, whether it be your family or a small group of friends five or six a and and you're paying the bill, is.

It is it fair that you water and ordered multiple dishes so you can all share? Is that fair?

Are you letting the other people have? Him put in.

Something?

This morning, went to the cafe and I asked the kids what they wanted. Cody said he wanted to burger. I said, okay. Charlie says she wanted some eggs.

I said okay, So she got some eggs, and then he wanted a like a noodle salad bowl thing, and I had some egs also. When did it all come out?

I started sort of having a whine actually come out first, and Charlie said, my daughter was come have a bit of bacon.

I said, you know, give a bit of bacon. Then the other meals come out, and I sort of started having a pick pick here and there, and they blew up lost it.

I think sharing breakfast is different to.

Shore, but it was more than prist breakfast. It was a burger. This is just your family, no one else. No, No, it was just my fare. It was a burger and a noodle, salad bowl, some eggs and and the kids.

Really, because it's breakfast, you order what you want.

It wasn't breakfast, it was it was just it was eleven o'clock. Leathers start with.

Either way breakfast or lunch. If you're ordering it, say I order a sandwich. Oh geez, that looks nice. Can I have a bit of your sandwich? No, if you wanted the sandwich, you ordered the sandwich.

But you've got you've got something here to share with them as well. You're sharing it. It's a communal area that now you're saying, No.

I'm gonna know as well. I think it's different if you've got to dinner at like your local Thai restaurant or Chinese, and you in your order five or six dishes and everyone just chips in and puts a bit on different dishes.

So you're saying, are you saying it's all in the middle of the table, yeah, in front of you. Yeah, well you mixed it around to mix and match a little bit. Well, mine was placing in front of you.

They're placed in front of each other's But I want to reach over and have a little bit of the salad.

I want to have a little bit of challenge. Did you say a little bit of that? They said, now, that's it on paying for it. But mate, I just thought, I said to them all, this is going to be a topic that I'm rader because I think it's fair. You share, sharing is caring.

Anyone else paid for it? Well, what if one of the kids use their pocket money and shout everyone.

Yeah, I know you've got kids, wait till they get a bit older. They put their hand on Charlie sixteen Jesus.

That's actually one of my mum's worst traits. If you have, like if you're ordered tie Chinese for dinner at home and everyone will order whatever dish they want and she just has to have something.

Well there you go, what's wrong with that?

Well, just order your own food.

She is ording her own for it, but she wants to try everybody else.

Okay, So I think it's different when you go with the mindset of let's keep it in the middle and we're all going to share. But when someone orders a curry and the other three people don't like curry, and someone orders a tie beef salad. You know what I mean. I don't know. I just think it's all in the mindset. The conversation has to happen before your order.

Good point.

See this is a good cross section of the community. I think us full because we've all got different opinions. Given you one, Well, I'm a bit with if I order something, you know, I really don't care. If someone wants something off my plate, I'm happy to give it to them. It doesn't really worry me. But if if it's all in the middle, it's open slawly over whatever you want. But Darling, we don't go out very often, me and Darling, but she has this really bad habit in the old days when we did go out, I would order something, then she would order something, and then when mine came out, she would just about every time.

So I wish I would.

Put you under pressure, under pressure to probably give us something. Do you half it or do you just half?

I'll give her a little bit, I don't depends on what it is. MS Snitzel, I don't know. But anyway, but if you shared with her, would she share back with you? I think she would.

Yeah.

See, that's what I think that's fair enough, but I didn't want what she got. I don't want to share with her just for the sake.

Then I think the panel split on this. I think there's a split. I think we should let our listeners decide.

You and fergo with each other. Daryl's semi with me. I think you're sort of siding with you because he just hates a graem me. He hates admitting that. I'm right alright. One.

So the question is if you go out, if you go out as a family for breakfast or for lunch and you're ordering individual meals, is it okay to share?

Is that the question? Yeah? Family or a small group of friends?

One three one eight seven three. The name you can email us at the webs It's Texas as well. Zero full six zero eight seven three eight seven three. I just thought of something that happened to me recently. I was out with a few mates and their partners and everything else, and I, believe it or not, I had some food left over on my plate and I hadn't decided whether or not I wanted to finish the chips that were on the plate. So a maide of mine's wife, who was sitting directly opposite me at the table, just decided to reach over with her fork and start forking my chips.

He started forking, starting to get forks, he started forking my chips off.

Well, Darryl, I was taken aback by the said forking, and I said, well, I haven't I haven't decided whether or not I finished my chips, and she was getting into my she was forking my chips. So is that okay or not?

Well, I would make it yours and your well do you know, well, not very well, you don't know very well. Put it this way.

That's pretty bold, it is.

But you know, I'm back to the next day of her husband.

I don't understand with it. Yeah, if she she's going to have some just yeah, it's tearing. But it's just gone open souther on her own to.

Lean over with the fork that she's used.

Just that.

I would have thought, if you're going to offer someone food, like the etiquette of it, you'd scrape baby and some chips under her plate. She's leaning over the bottle of wine and everything else to get in my check.

I don't have a problem a couple of lines. You don't have a problem with that.

Don't.

If it looks like you've had enough and had you look, had you finished or not? I decided you Daryn, that's okay. Well here's the question. How did you place your knife and fork?

They was right alongside the plate?

You know what it is? It's uncouth? Where are they from? Something? Actually? All right?

One three one eight seven three the number two GV dot com. Click onto the feedback icon. You can text a zero four six zero eight seven three eight seven three mark. If I had a t bone, I wouldn't appreciate Gal taking a bite out of it from Greg.

I wouldn't grab it, cut the tea band up and just share it.

Mels at pen, Hello, Melt, Hi, what do you think.

Me and my husband always share. We go out to food, like to have dinner, and we'll say, will you order that, I'll order this, and then we can share it.

That's the conversation before it's happened.

I think.

I think having that conversation is crucial.

What about if you're with another couple, Melt, and one of them reached over, like Levy said, and forked your chips.

No, I don't care who cares the food.

I'm a bit with you, I'm a bit with you, Mel, I'm not. I'm very protective of my chips. Day Mel, very protective of my chips.

Take the broccoli.

You know what else is awkward?

She did well.

The person sitting next to her was one of her friends. So that that lady ordered a chicken caesar salad and she hadn't eaten her crewton, so she was want to get her fork after reading my chips to go over and get the hard I should pick up with the four. The crew flew out of the bar and onto the table and she picked the butt at.

Anyway, this woman's done, Yes, I say, she's you went out for a You went out.

We say three couples, six people, and two of the couples want to go and buy share dishes and one doesn't.

What do you do that? That's that's the conversation beforehand.

Yeah, I think. I think the people that want to share share and then there's a person there that has their own meal.

Did you make them pay for themselves?

You just if the six people you're divided by six, Paul.

Paul says Levy. Hello, she wanted more than your chips. Now she's happily married.

You know what Alanus comes up with a good point here too, mean sharing the bill, what about sharing.

The very well, it's a very interesting this is good.

This is if you do go somewhere right and you're a bit and you don't want to spend a lot of money, right, and you order something it because it's a bit cheaper, and then I've made who you don't really know, who's part of your group over the road gets a filet mignon or whatever they get and you're there with like a sitzle, And then they said, what don't we just share the bill? And you just think, well, the middle was forty five dollars. Mine was twenty.

Yeah, I think you think. I think it depends you you are the leading title. I'm not at all, But anyway, I think I figures.

So you go with the two because if you go to the group of friends, you go out often, and one gets a fifty dollars steak, year a twenty dollars. What goes around comes around, you're going to pick it up one day. So I think it's but if you wish somewhere, are okay with that, I'm okay with it.

Yeah, we'll see.

But see the other one Daryl that the other one that goes into the mix is the non drink.

Yeah, non drinking the time with chicks, Yeah, all the time.

So what's watch the rule? What is it rule there? Because that time miss is often if you.

Time, if you don't drink, you shouldn't have to pay the same amount, agreed.

And also if you're going for a long lunch, like I'm sort of in the phase of life where a lot of my mates are pregnant at different time. So if you've got eight there's a group of us that there's there's eight chicks. We go out a couple of times a year and there's generally one or two pregnant people.

Do they normally get pregnant after that that night.

So everyone else will chip in, will chip in more, But there is always a tight ass.

But you know what, I'm hilarious them. It's hard to chip in.

Like if your bills, so let's say your bill six hundred for eight people, let's just say that, and one of them has probably only spent sixty bucks, do they? I couldn't just say, look he's sixty that's all I spent. You couldn't do that, could you.

Do?

You know, do you know what I just love about it the people that do do it.

It's funny non drinkers or do they just add up exactly what they've spent.

No, they're not. No, they're not drinking for a reason. Pregnant usually pregnant.

Is that not fair enough?

No, I'm saying I think that's that's all right. But they'd never be like, I'm only paying twenty seven dollars because that's the meal I got. It was like, here's your fifty and you lot can play one hundred and fifty again.

This is with a group of people you would go out with again. So I think, in the.

What about this one from Anne? Try being the only vegetarian guys and having to share the bloody bill?

Hate it.

That's your fault.

Vegetarian meals are shape. Oh you're anti vegetar.

I'm lucky you go out and dinner by yourself. I recond.

It is a really interesting conversation I record because you don't what appear to be tight to you, but I know I would you.

I mean, at the end of the day, do you know what I'm too old to worry about.

I just exactly if you want to spend that quality time with your mates. It's not like you're doing it every weekend. If you're happy to, I don't know. I'm happy to put in an extra few dollars to spend the time with my friends, you know.

On the forking of the chips, Jeff says Mark, I hate it when my food comes first and I'm buying drinks and people take chips.

Off my plate before I've even started.

That's me.

I'll push the plate across and say it's yours. Keep your Germys to yourself. Matthew says, Gallon charges ten dollars aheaded barbecues. Doesn't he thank you? Matthew, Mark, your lady friend who forked your chips in her previous life as a seagull. Can you still pay part card, part cash? Well you can at most places.

Can you think I can't use a couple of cards? Can you? You can't like if if of you you can't very they don't like your splitting the bill and going.

You know.

Said had a lot of place it will say, I'm being told. There was a famous clip on Friends, the TV show about not wanting to share his Joey.

Joey doesn't share food.

I mean just just last week we were having breakfast and he had a couple of griefs on his plates.

You wouldn't let her have a grief?

Oh no, not me, Emma. Jolie doesn't share. Joey doesn't share food.

And that's my point and just on your you being a tight You know what, Gal, your dad actually phone through this week and wanted to speak to the boys and wide world of sports.

Let's have a listener.

Hey boy, how are you know who I am? D There we go, Paul, I'm Gal Dad.

Yeah, that's the works preparation cover long.

Oh yeah, he's going. Well, yeah, it's going pretty well. And I wish you more than luck and go the Blues tonight.

Knowing your son and working with your son like we all do.

I've just got to let you know, mate, the tickets have gone on sale for the fight today. You won't get a free one, or if you want to pay for it on Stan you can order it pay per view on on Stan. He won't give you a free ticket, will.

He make course lunch money from school?

Your dad's give it a TG like that. He's right, took it much money for a reason.

One three, one eight seven three The number quick breakback working Mitch Scheer's team. I have a mate who is so tight that he counts the pieces of garlic bread. People have an added to splitting the bills.

That's you, Greg, he watch.

Worse is when you ask the missus what she wants and decides on nothing. But my meal turns up and she proceeds to eat half of my food. I love to show keep up the great work. From Steve at Gun to Windy Levey. I'd call, but Darling's next to me. I hate it when I ask what do you want to eat? She says nothing, I'll just have some of yours.

No.

From Lumpy and Shane at Budrum. I'm with the Lana. I'm not going for lunch with a vegetarian and I wouldn't either ever be seen talking to a vegan. They are, as you say, boring. From Shane at Budrum.

It's a big statement from Shane. I don't know too many vegans or vegetarians, but it's a big statement to say they're boring. Do you think they're boring people because they don't eat meat and stuff.

They're different.

They can be a bit weird. Freddie went vegan here.

Vegan for a while where he got really skinny.

He's a winner.

He lost lots of weight. Is he still is he a Widow's a great way. He's freddy different, but he's not a vegan anymore, and he looks more healthy. Why did he become a vegan? I'm not too sure.

Hang on this look vegan.

Look when he's vegan. He was skinny as anything. That's wrong with that? Like he looked unhealthily.

Well, I'm going to turn this back on you because you're used to making big statements Vegans vegetarians.

Do you think they're boring? I'm with girl.

I don't know too many of them, to be honest with you, but I think that they would have a propensity to be possibly boring by not eating meat.

How can you make vegans not eat it? Wouldn't be vegans not eat like fish? Can they eat fish?

Pestarian?

Yeah?

Get mixed up on my mother staying with me at the moment.

Right.

She's down from Brisbane. She claims to be a vegetarian. She got home last night, she goes, where can I get a piece of fish? And I said, well, you're not a vegetarian. She goes, yes, I'm just a vegan that eats fish, Well, well know you're not, because you're you're eating fish.

Which is a meat. What's different though, that's a different vegetarian, peskeetarian, they're all different.

Pescatarians only eat seafood. I think I'm right in saying vegetarians only eat vegetables, vegans only eat vegans eat vegans.

I don't know.

Somebody will tell us what the what the you know what vegan? I don't understand how people can't sit there and enjoy a big juicy piece.

I agree, how well, because you know what, they look at it.

And I'm not one, but I reckon it's because they look at it and then they go back two years when it was running around the to some grass.

Okay, go back two hundred years. When you're sitting there doing nothing. You gotta eat something.

You've got to kill a cow to live, so you live all to live. Kill a cow to live. Really, that's what you have to.

Do back in the day's kill, you know what. I'm glad you brought this up when I went to you. I went to Macedonia last year, right, and apparently custom is when you go to some when you've invited to somebody's place. They offer to kill a pig for you. So we've gone out to the back and the bloke showing us around the house and he goes, I'm going to kill this pig for you. I said no, no, I don't want to see you killed a big Thank you very much, he said. So we ended up having a few drinks in the whole family and all that sort of thing, and I just kept looking at this pig, thinking to myself, I can't be responsible for its death. Really does that make me a nice person?

Yeah? It does. Walk away not you obviously went.

On you ate it Bacon the next morning, B seven three the number TGB dot com. Click onto the feedback icon. I just don't like the taste of meat. Boys never did. From Ann Thank you, Anne Fellows. I had to go vegan for five weeks due to a gut issue. It was the most miserable five weeks of my life. From at Guyama, you should play the vegan vegetarian joke told by Carl on the Today Show. I don't know what that joke is, but I'll have to find it. Thank you.

That's the kid. The kid got on and said it, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that was quite fun.

And there's a great steak restaurant in Brisbane with a sign worst vegetarian Restaurants. I like it, Thank you very much. Keep them coming zero full six zero eight seven three eight seven three. We'll take a quick break. Other side of this, Damien Cook's going to join us from the Dragons off the back of their win last night. Over the Nights, Mark Leaby, Paul Gallan, Daryl Brman, Alana ferguson the Continuous Call Team Gold Coast Melbourne coming up in the next half hour. We'll update the schools on that one as we take you around the grounds. I was only thinking to himself the other day. We haven't had Damien Cook on the show for a little while. If organized to get him back on because he's a good performer, and he was also very intimidating for other members of the Continuous Call Team, as we found out last year when Josh Morris walked up to whitterview the great Damien Cook.

Yeah, I got little kick Cookie here, mate? What about that scrappy conditions, But that first half this must have been impressed with are you sweet? Good? Poor Josh so good?

I think I did a walk off interview at halftime with cookies I've got and stuff.

That up the Dragons co captain and Hooker's on the line.

Hello, Damien, good afternoon and think.

That me mate. Well done last night twenty points to six over Newcast. Look, it wasn't a It wasn't the greatest game of football we've ever seen, but hey to competition. Points off the bygo in the bag, so you got to be happy with that.

Yeah, it was mate, off the back of the buy in the Briston game sort of put a couple in a row there, which was good. We really wanted to make sure we keep that momentum going from that one. And it wasn't the most exciting game, wasn't. We definitely left some tries out there, but you know, most important competition as close as this, get the two points and move on.

Good you.

I thought early on both teams were trying to move the ball side of side nas I was very slippy out there. Wasn't until the fifteen twenty minute you guys decided to go through the middle and try to go through the nights, and you did that, and I've got to be honest, I thought it was on the back of your big, your big front row. I thought, you know, he's obviously at the back end of his career, be big clamor. But I thought it was outstanding last night.

No, he was, and he had a great game last night, and lade a really good platform and you're right, we both teams was quite fast at started was I saw the first twenty minutes before we got the first try. But we did get that off the back of you know, going back through the middle of him, which is what we wanted to do. But probably just sometimes when you think there's a bit of space out wide, you tend to chase that and go away from the game plan. So once we stuck to that, obviously put some points on but then and again in the second half we did the same sort of thing. So a bit to learn from that. But yeah, Clement's it's kind of has been great ever since he came to the club. Obviously an older head and you know we've got a lot of young forwards there, so he's leading by example and just around the training field as well.

Mate, I agree, I think he's been really good for you. But I thought last night was probably his best game in a few years. He I thought he was outstanding last night. Now, you Blakes have now stuck into the eighth, which is nice because you probably deserved to be there even though you've been like every other club, you've been a bit inconsistent at times, but in generally you've had a been a pretty good season.

The Dragons, Yeah, it hasn't been too bad.

You know, I'll see a couple of those wins. You know, we left the two points out there when we've had control, especially you know Warriors can you can say, you know though in front we sort of chased them down and they've got way over. But you know, two games with South in Para where we led with ten to fifteen minutes ago, we just need to be better and close those ones out. Would probably be well and truly in the eight. So that's I think we deserve to be in there. But yeah, now to make sure we get through this origin period well and pick up some points before we hit into the final series. In the lead into the final series.

Hey, cookie, one bloke, I want to ask you about Nathan Lawson. I've watched him play a fair bit of rugby. He obviously comes from the seven program, Seven's programs before he came over. He gave a pretty good nightge last night. The clocked up some meters, but he sort of played his role in rugby seven's was always that edge forward, so because he does have that bigger body, and he's obviously really good at defending one oh one and he's got that pace. But what's he been like around the club.

Oh, he's been greater around the club. And ye know he's played on the biggest stage in the Olympics a couple of times now and I thought he stood up for the challenges. It's pretty impressive what he's done going from a sevens game where obviously I mean seven on the field, coming to where there's thirteen guys line up, you know, shoulder and shoulder wanted to bash you as you run out of the yardage, and I thoughted you a really good job of you know, when Elson kicks his way. He did well to get across to the middle and beat a couple of players and get us out of that corner. So and got our sets off to a really good start. And he's got some paces, got some size, Like he said, he makes his tackles and really did his job last night and it was a great day.

Mate.

The other bloke who impressed me last night. It's only a young man who the big fellow? What's he doing Pacific a Tonga? He's only twenty years of age?

Is that twenty two weeks ago turned twenty? How tall would he be? Would he be six foot five? I mean he is a unit, he is a year and he looks like he can play a bit.

He can.

He's got a lot of skill about him too. At the moment, he's probably just building into his game with these erroll games back to back now, getting his fitness up, and you know, he's starting to understand how big years and what he can do. And you know last night we knew we get within range, you get half a quick play the ball where we can get him close enough. You know, guys are big. He just too hard to stop, you know Melbourne and us Nelson's well and that's yeah, compare those two together. That's how we can use him as well. So he's got a bright future ahead of and he's building nicely at the moment.

You going to gals fight Cookie.

Yeah, I was trying to chase some tickets, but you're not gonna be one to sell them to me. So I'm going to try and.

Brings me out to my next topic. Cookie.

As you know big games, origins, test matches, you get a ticket allocation, is that right?

You do? Then anything after that? What do you do? You buy them?

So all my question you buy.

It's all my questions to you guys into all the listeners out there. Who's really the biggest titles here me for not buying Cookie a ticket or someone who's on five or six hundred thousand not willing to put their head in their pocket and.

Buy a ticket.

How much are you getting to the I reckon it doesn't matter, but I'm getting the heat pooload.

I was going to say, you know what, load.

Get a heat the tickets out, you know, But like you're your fight cooking, you're the head.

Of and I know, I don't.

I don't know the right stand to And I had a ticket allocation just like Sonny Bilt for our family and friends and close sponsors.

And friends and colleague colleagues from last year as well.

True, Hey, Damien, the fight must be selling well well, Damien, the fight must be pretty popular and selling quickly. I was giving away tickets on the morning show this week, so it's obviously going well.

I stay out of it.

Now.

You know, I got nothing to do with the tickets. I've got my ticket allocation. That's what I'll dealt with that. That's all I do.

And then did you get twenty Damien, Well, well we'll buy it. We'll buy a table or something. You can come and sit on the table. That's made all right. Great by the way, you came to come back on in here and do some Jimmy. You're one of the great gibbers. We've enjoyed working with you. Do I need to talk to somebody?

Oh yeah, please do give me back on there.

I love it in there, so it's good fun.

I'll throw my way around. I got a little bit these days that we've got to get him back on. He's good, he's proven performing.

James Maloney, by the way, cooking, Why did I saw James Malone yesterday?

Remembery bag Flanno. Don't tell me you don't know about that now, I don't. I bet you shamed us.

Anyway, no one's brought it up.

Mark Leby, Paul Gallon, Alana Ferguson and Darryl Breman and big Man, you were telling me some sad news that came through overnight for the United States.

Yeah, I was reading the paper this morning. I knew nothing about this, but in a little section they said about one of the aust Australian lady had passed away in the States, lady by the name Julie Fitzsimon's, who was actually the head of the Nicole Fitzsimon's Foundation. Now, Nicole worked on the Footy Show when I was there years ago, long time ago, and Nicole unfortunately was killed in a motorbike accident over and I think it was in Thailand at the end well, in one of the off seasons of the rugby league, and she was with a partner and was hit. She'd think they were on a motorbike and she passed away on that anyway, I was reading the paper today and her mum is Julie. She actually was apparently hit by a car in America when they were on holidays and she passed away as well. So it's a really sad time. I did a bit of stuff with the Nicole Fitzsimon's Foundation and they are a great foundation, and quite ironically it was about people traveling safely when they're overseas and I'm so sorry to hear that the Julie's passed away as well. Vince her husband, I think Kate's the daughter. It's just just horrific both, you know, the daughter and the mother have now passed from excellence on the rail and you know she's a great woman and did so much good stuff. So it's a really sad day for anyone who knew them. Was she was like Nicole was? I think Glenn Pallaster's who was the you the boss of the footy show, his pa I think and it's just a terrible, terrible bit of news that I heard.

Yeah, that's awful, and we're obviously sending out deepest sympathies and condolences to those family members morning the passing of Julian and I'm assuming Darrel, back in those days of the Footy Show, you were like a bit of a family, everyone that worked on the show and both on our end off it.

Yeah, well you probably we did spend a fair bit of time together, you know, and I suppose you do it, Gal, I meant you guys, you know, the Channel nine family at the moment, but on a particular show like that, you were a bit of a family and we all got on really well. And we were devastated when we found out Nicole was killed overseas because she was just such a young, vibrant young girl and had a whole life for ahead of it, you know, and then for Julie to be you know, taken like this as well. She only text me like about I think it was May of the twelfth she texted me. She said they were going on a cruise and she want to go on the trip to to Vegas. I'm taking a trip as well, like you are. This year or next year, I should say, because they've made dragon supporters and want to go and support the dragons. And I well, I read this morning. To be honest, I couldn't believe it. I rang a couple of people run Plaster and a few other people and they confirmed it. So it's a really it's a really sad down there, terrible, really sad.

Well again, our condolences and sympathies to the family and obviously a very very difficult time. One three one eight seven three That number A call to GB dot com. Click onto the feedback icon if you would like to join us. I just speaking of the Footy Show. I don't know how it came up, but you know when you go onto YouTube and you get all the old clips of different things. I don't know why, but up came Perfect Partners of you, Daryl and Darling. I mean Darling is Gon Darling, great segment, great stuff. Well it's a long time ago, you know.

It'd be probably well, the Footy Show has been gone for I think nine years now.

I have a funny perfect partner story, were you one to right? And well, hopefully guys busy with the kids and not listening to this but so I'd been on the footy show once or twice, maybe it was only once, and they asked me to do Perfect Partners because they'd met guy, and well, basically I didn't know how to say no. But it was at a very awkward part of her of our relationship. Let me just tell you. It was early on and he had very recently just been separated from him. So yeah, so you have to be and this I genuine.

My heart.

I have never met her and wasn't with him during that time, but you have to be separated for twelve months before you can be divorced, and it it was in that period. But also it was so fresh. I didn't know bloody anything about him. I couldn't have other than a couple of personal things. But like they asked you questions like whatever, what could be anything? Favorite food, this, that, the other? Absolutely no idea.

Pretty much what he looked like he would answer right, And.

I was just such a rookie and I just said yes. And then I panicked for a very long.

Time after well, guys, ex wife's on the line.

Oh, I'm got to get out of here.

As I said this to Ben Fordham during the one of the young kids in my street come up with the other day something happened. The young kid goes, He goes, Oh, that's tots orkies. That would have been a total orkies mate. That's what they're saying in the street. They're all running around like lunatics.

You're a hero of the Panthers. Look at the top email there, did Jimmy the ver win yess got onto? Yeah? I did.

Actually I got one of those little used to things too. So finally thirty three games, I haven't backed it. Well, we got better than that. I got four fifty champion. We're off to a break. Goald coach coming up in ten from there. Well, there's no secrets on these show. Ladies and gentlemen. Gows just asked Fergo and Darryl for some parenting advice. G what's your question.

So my young man Codie, he wants to go camping tonight with his mates.

Is it tonight?

Tonight? Better? Boat scares me? He's there.

A couple of the boys got their jet ski lights. I think one might have their boat lights. So they're going to jump on a boat travel over to Bundee. There must be keeping around a bundin travel over there. And camp for the night. But they're fourteen, who's going to get the grog? I don't think fergots seemed to think they might ever drink.

I know these kids.

I coach these kids. They're good kids. They wouldn't be drinking. I'm more concerned about them getting over there in.

The boat drinking thief.

They're fourteen, they're going away from home right for a night to stay at Bandina?

Like, what do you think they're going to do over there?

Books, I knew you were stupid, I didn't think you were stupid.

I'm confident these kids. I coach these kids that.

They wouldn't be drinking.

There's a thing called peer precious, I think, and even.

Would be drinking.

This hilarious.

They're fourteen, they're not sixteen, fifteen, sixteen.

Well, let me also tell you this, gal, they're not also angels. I know that.

I believe me. I know that angels.

They're young boys.

Do you actually think they can be quite confident in the water?

They wouldn't. That'd be one thing. They'll be doing marshmallows that they wouldn't be they would, So what will they be doing? Cany'll be fishing? I reckon they'll be probably in the dark crab sacking their phones like they all do.

These reminds me of last year when you said, oh, Charlie, my eldest daughter wants to go to the beach for a party. And we're saying, oh, yeah, what do you think happens on the beach at parties? They drink, you know, hook up with boys. Said that wouldn't happen many of.

Them, probably half a dozen, yea, And how we would the oldest they're all playing my football team.

It's crazy that you're gonna let them do.

So, you know what, I would send a clips I'll be very disappointed. If you drink. I'm gonna have to dream during the break. But there would beeople I know when I know when the families live on the water in.

The hacking and straight and be able to see basically where they're staying, that's probably where they're allowed to do it, like they probably do it often. They probably travel over there off and they know it. They've got electricity light lights or what they do. I don't know what, you know what they're going to do. They'll just all get on the drink they want strip off. They'll all be in the news. I'll be running around people's.

In the news.

I cannot believe Brown Eye Champion canst listen.

I know these kids, they're thoughts in his if they were drinking.

You know what they're doing. They're going to mom and dad. They're going to mom and dad's bar or opening the thing. They're filling up their drink bottles and they're replacing them with water. Like you're absolutely off your head if you think they're not doing that.

Sneaking cigarettes in the bad that's that's what happens.

Possibly the vapes from the Chicks girl as well. So you think I don't know, I don't know. I don't know. I just got a text me.

You tell me what's happening said, wait till you don't think about it's pretty strict. There's no way and will let him go.

I'm a big chance of that's because Anne knows what's going to happen on this camping.

I'm gonna let him go, and I'm gonna trust he's going to be okay, and I'm going to trust the other boys.

They wait for drinking, You turn up at eleven pm and then textas the boys.

Aren't drinking or anything but wrong not doing anything wrong. What will they do their little rat fishing it wrong? They'll be fishing, They'll be Karen.

Time.

What about Matt Marky g Strink could be your grandfather.

Strip would not be doing that, believe. Why is that girl's still very young at the end of the day, he's still your son, Marc as.

We'll do that of course for Mackers and it's bucketing down with rain.

Yes, the Seagles in action later on tonight seven thirty five against the Brisbane Broncos. As we welcome you back to the continuous call team playing away on the Gold Coast. The Titans have opened the scoring against Melbourne after the first seven minutes of play six nil, Gold Coast leading Melbourne six nil the scorer as we take you around the grounds five point thirty this afternoon will bring you a live call as well of the Cowboys and West Tigers. Last night the Dragons beat the Nights twenty points to six. While in State of Origin on Wednesday night, New South Wales two good for the Queenslanders eighteen points to six one. In the women's Origin game three Queensland sourage some pride without eighteen fourteen win over the New South Wales women at McDonald Jones Stadia, Mark Levy, Paul Gallon, Darryl Ryman and Alana Ferguson. Fergo, I should ask you about the women's Origin match which you called on Thursday night, the Queenslanders eighteen fourteen over the Blues. But New South Wales when the series two won.

Yeah, look, New South Wales were very dominant in the first two games, and Queensland made some changes, made some really good changes. Chelsea Lander Doozy, she started a big Queensland prop because they were really missing some size. And then the big one for me was Lauren Brown. She moved from hooker into half back. Ali Brigginshaw moved to locke and it worked a lot better for Queensland. But look, as we know in origin, it's very hard to get a clean sweep and New South Wales were light years ahead of Queensland in the first couple of games. But yeah, great to see Queensland come out out play for pride. I mean, look, I would have loved to have seen New South Wales get the clean sweep, but they still got to lift the trophy at home in Newcastle.

Great crowd up twenty It was awesome.

Honestly, it's the best because also I think what that game invites the kickoffs a little bit earlier, but there are so many kids in the crowd. There was over there was nearly twenty two thousand. But they're just loud, and they hung around for so long, Like we were standing on the panel post game and I couldn't even hear myself talk because there was kids just screaming waiting for the girls to go over there, like it's unreal. It's honestly the best, like growing up watching the blokes pay and now the kids they get to watch the women do it and if they choose to one day, but they're the things you remember, Like I remember being at the footing and watching those players and have the players come over to you at the fence and all the rest of it. But now they get it from the women, so it's unreal.

Like sixty three thousand was the total crowd across the three games, which is great, well done to all involved. Look, the other issue just quickly that we need to mention is the whole lockey Galvin thing. This is what Benji Marshall said yesterday.

I don't know if disappointments the word. Look, at the same time, we like her players we got, we love the squad we got. We're excited about some of the young players we got coming through and for us we want to try and make a mark on the competition this year and the squad we got we're confident we can do that, but we're going to put it together this weekend.

I don't know about you guys. But I'm just glad it's all done. I was gonna get a bit tired of hearing about it every every week. There's some great TV on Monday with Michael Chamis and Phil GOLDI that was good to watch.

We're talking about a nine year old kid who has played half a dozen or a dozen games for the team, has won three wooden spoons in a row, like calm the farm a little bit. It's like serious. I feel a bit sorry for him. I don't know if it's hum or, pop it all up or what's going on. But just get Arab, go and play some good footy, win some games, be the player you want to be, and then we can start talking about him.

But it's been ridiculous. It's been a bit of a circus, hasn't it now.

But it's been going on for a month or so now, and I'm one with you guys. I'm glad it's all over. I think he's made the right decision. He clearly had to leave the Tigers. He said he was going to leave, and he did. There was a couple of clubs chasing him. I think Paramatta was one who I think he grew up, did grow up.

Anyway. But I don't know, but I.

Think he's made the right decision. You know, all the stuff with Gus, I mean, Gas is just Guss Gus. You know, you're not going to add smart Gus and you're not going to out argueing no matter which way you think about it.

Mag Chem the other night, he's probably as good as you could think.

But you know, at the end of the day, it's a business, you know, and and it's and it's going to be a business forever. I was actually talking to a Bulldog player the other day at the airport about it, and I said, you know, is it going to put anyone's nose out of business? And it's a business made And as I said at the time, you can never get too many good players in your club. Now, whether it affects another player there, well, it's obviously going to with him. He's going to go into the side, no doubt, he's a very good player. But he's going to go into the side. So someone's going to miss out. He might create a few ripples, but you know.

So be it. You never have too many good I can't I.

Agree, but that's why I was a little bit I didn't know why Gus was so defined and to say he's had nothing to do with it.

That was probably my only question.

But just but just on that goal, there's there's rules about what club officials can say. And if he was to come out when he was asked and say, yes, we're talking to Lachland Galvin, isn't that a breach of the rules.

Because he was given maybe six weeks ago, yes, but not not a week.

But that's exactly what Gus has come out and said, though he said he's just reacted to when he was allowed to.

I'm a bit confused by it all, like.

I've you know, Gus explained to us on Sunday.

But what club's telling us lies like it happens in every club.

Yeah, all the time.

I think the most important thing he has done, and you a good young player plays some.

Good foot for the sake of Galvin to he just needs to worry about playing.

Footya turn up, play good footy and everything else will be forgotten.

Anyway, We'll wait and see how that all pans out. Now, did you speak to Cody watch the guy?

Yeah, he's going That's what I said to him.

So Mom said yes, No, Mom said no, I said yes, I said, you know that I'm the one, and more like, it's pretty strict.

Have you spoken to and and told her that? He said yes, also.

Spoke to a couple of other parents and there's no issue. They'll be fine.

You know, No, that isn't the entire thing that you told us.

Faith in him, I've got faith in the other boys that are going out. Come may have been mentioned, but he said, if there's our coo there, he won't be drinking.

So we were can I just you're saying there six kids going, six boys at least, yes, and if there's alcohol there, he won't be touching.

He wouldn't even have a sip a taste.

I'm very confident. I think we revert back to that very confident. You can't. That's silly. I'm very confident. Can't be period. I'm not even a parent.

I've also spoken to another set of parents and and trust in a very the parents are going, the kids are and the kids are great, beautiful young men, and so how.

Many going do you not trust? So you obviously trust a couple of them.

Yeah, I do trust a couple of the rat bags. I still trust in the good kids.

But do you think that the rat bags will take out?

Now I don't when he said when he said, if there's going to be beer there, so who I know? You trust them all, but there must be some that are untrustworthy. If there's going to be some beer there, he said, if there is, Beau, there have been somewhere before where there's been alcohol. But I have full trust in a young man and he'll be fine.

Can I raise? Can I raise something this week? You know how we're all on planes this week, and I know you guys fly more more than we do. Planes fascinate me. Aeroplanes. We had a shitch situation where we landed in Brisbane and then the aeroplane taxis towards the gate and then pulls up and the little aero bridge comes across. We were stuck on the plane because the captain came on and said, yes, attention ladies and gentlemen. He said, he said, look, I've just got a little bit too far forward and we need to get an engineer to come out and have a look. So I couldn't help myself, mister inquisitive that I am. I was sitting up the back of the plane and I said to the flight attendant. I said, out of interest, how far forward did we go? She said thirty centimeters? Does that really matter?

How the aero bridge?

But then I'm thinking, I thought, because there were these two young kids sort of sitting next to me, and they said, why don't they just reverse it?

I wonder if it's code for something else, because I have been on a plane where that has happened also, and they overshoot it by maybe a metrich the most thirty centemons, as you said, and they reckon they can't open the aero bridge. I wonder, how does that work if it's code for something else, if something else has happened.

I don't know.

But so you think it's code, well, maybe there's a pollot out there or someone, whether they whether that's true where they really have overshot it by thirty center it's that far.

What are you so untrusting? Well, because it just seems so minimal. You're trusting the wrong, the wrong, it's very minimal to be you can't open air everything.

I just find it amazing that we have two pilots sitting up the front. They can take off, fly cruise land, but not park properly. What's going on there? So I just found it very, very intriguing that they need to get an engineer to come and have a look at a pilot going thirty centimeters too far forward, Like, really, why don't they just push the thing across, open the door and let everyone jump off?

And I agree absolutely with the multiple planes happen.

My other question about planes, just because I was fascinating by this, you know, and I could see out the window and you can see the wind, you know, when your land and they put the reverse thrusters on. There's these little flat things that PLoP up on the wing.

What do they do? It's the wind? Think about it, Marcus. Have you seen how about thirty centimes? No?

No, no, no, no no, They're about the size of your hand.

They pop up. But that then it's not fun.

Does that stop on the back of a car with rubbish?

Exactly? What it is that slows the plane down?

So you mean to tell me a plane with two hundred people on it going at speed, a little thing pops up and that stops it.

It slows it down.

I've got something about planes. The bit at the top where you put your carry on luggage. Why is there never enough room?

You know?

Why?

Because all thebeciles try and put about three bags. Can you tell the story? The other day we get on the plane right.

But this is one of my this is one of my biggest I travel every weekend. This is one of my biggest fears.

Do you check in anything?

Because I've just got a little willy it is that should pop up there nice and easily. And sometimes you get carried away. You might make an extra toasty in the lounge, or you might be gas bagging. But if you don't get on the plane early enough, there's never enough spots to put your carry on. You're allowed, You're allowed to have one.

People are. People are inconsiderate and take people are Why do they let them take more than one? I don't know. It's very very good.

Here's another question.

Something happened with Gall and I on the plane the other day.

Here's my other question about planes, because I was thinking about this whilst flying for an hour to Brisbane. We have three seats either side of the plane, and I'm a big bloke, right, and I'm quite tall as well, so my my legs press right inside and I'm thinking to myself, a blake next to me, I'm virtually sitting on top of him, and I think, why don't they just widen the plane a little bit, Just widen the plane a little bit and make a little bit more room for the seats.

Can you explain that for me, Daryl.

Because the planes have already been made and it's too hard to buy a lot of new ones.

But why are they Why are they that shape? And then you look at the bigger planes like the A three eighty that are a bit wider because you can fit more seats. So why are we making thinner planes for domestic flights to Australia.

We're tight.

I just thought i'd put a little set.

I've been talking about planes for thirty years on this great shirt, right, and I've covered just about every aspect of planes. Like my pet haters, when you get up when the plane stops, why does everyone immediately get because it's not going to move for about ten minutes? True, you know, And then what I do I'll ask answer your question later, Sorry, in a minute, You're right. What I do like is the way the people who get up let the people at the front go first. Like in the old days there'd just be people rushing down the aisle. But you can't rush down the eye there because as soon as the plane stopped, people stand up.

So you take your turn. Row one goes too, and you take it into I think that's very commendable.

It's polite.

It is polite.

But it surprises me why how polite it is, because normally there's a lot of mongrel people out there who are in a hurry.

There's always that one person. I feel like sticking muffo out and tripping them, to be honest, like, just wait, what was your question again?

I just thought of another one, another one. I was having a conversation, lovely conversation with a flight attendant at the back. She was lovely.

She what was his name.

She was a little bit older. She was a little bit older, but she was lovely, and she listens to the morning show and all that sort of thing. So she let me sit up the back where there's a spear seat next to me until this other bloke gone, and then she put me him next to me. Anyway long, this little kid, but she was having a love the conversation all that. As soon as they get on the microphone, there's no inflections. Yes, thank you very much. Welcome along to quantas flight so and so we will be going to whatever.

Hello, A little bit of a bit of personality, A bit of.

Personality, Yes, disappointed me. She was lovely, and I don't think her announcement did herself any.

Are the people who make announcements on planes aren't lovely? No.

I think they put on this persona that they need to be monotone Darryl or monotone fergo.

And there's no need to It is a good point.

Interesting, all right, Darryl. I know you're watching the football, but can you contribute? Taking one three one eight seven three the number two GV dot com click under the feedback icon if you would like to join us. So there's a few questions there to answer, that the plane's going too far forward and the arrow bridge coming across and everything else. One three one eight seven three the number. Peter's at Blackdown. I don't pay good mate. Can you answer this question for us?

Dancers?

Q shoot the mark that.

We've got a shocking line. We'll tidy it up and we'll come back to you when we can. Quick break back with more teams. Speaking about overhead storage and a plane, I've noticed a recent trend of people who sit at the back of the plane, put their luggage at the front so they don't have to carry it all the way to the back, which then means there's no space to sit at the fronts a lot of sense. That's from Boris.

So you remember the other.

Day plan, So Fergo was absolutely stressed. I've never seen her so stress. She was in right number four. I was in about right number eight, a few behind them, and when I went down, all all my things were closed. I also had a suitcase I opened up. There's room everywhere, so I put mine straight in and Fergo had none.

So me being.

If you can't fit your bag in, give it to us. You have to check it in. And I was going to be in a hurry as soon as I got there.

I've got fur guys, and I found I moved a couple of round so I help her out and then she starts. I text her I said this would be good.

She goes, what do you mean? I said, well, all you have to do now he's waits for everyone to get off the plane. Then he didn't come back five frozen.

And get you get your suitcase. And she goes, you wouldn't dare I said, yes, I would so.

Then what did I do? Then I opened up my text message third to Sonny Bill and wrote pretended to write him a text message saying I've got some gos on gal screenshots and it's a gout. Sure enough, he brought me my bag.

Now, I wrote back, you can tell more lies, but I did bring the bag. I wasn't gonna do that. You're a good friend.

Those little flaps is it elerons? They helped stabilize the wings on landing. All got to do with aerodynamics and planes don't have reverse either, But surely they can just do a little I don't have to go back in.

The plane back there is there a little truck push at the front of it. They attached onto the front wheels and it pushes it back.

But they've got those reverse thrash to things when your land, because you see the little door open on the engine. Sure that they can just like just to get a little a little bit, just thrust a little bit, you know, just just to get back with a little something. Wait at fifteen minutes for an engineer to come over and work out okay, yep, he's gone too far safe to get off. Ridiculous, ridiculous put a man on the moon. You can't pack a plane properly. One three one eight seven three the number two GB dot com. David's at Pannani. Hello David, Oh hello, how you going going good? Thank you? May can you help us?

Oh mate, I work at the airport. Be there's fifteen years and it's it's all a safety aspect. It might not he sound the foot, our foot over, but they've got to make sure it's right. So yeah, but.

What's what's the what's the issue with the arrow bridges? Does it not line up properly?

Does it?

Well, the door's got to open, so there's a small, small area that you can have, but we have to make sure that it's right on and the thing's over. So sometimes they overshoot a foot. Maybe I'm going to just going to roll it back or bring it a bit forward. So yeah, And the the apron over there, they're not straight like some bays. They when they release the brakes they roll back a little bit and other bays are all forward, so they've got to make sure they're pretty much spot on.

All right, fantastic, Thank you David. Whether that ends, don't understand what he's saying.

Now, I'm with him.

What you think as a pilot. I mean, don't they have a bloke stand in the front of the plane that's coming in. I mean, I think you'd have a little bit of leeway with regards where you star.

Didn't say about going to say is there any sort of leeway to stop at the right spot?

That's pretty big and those the things we're talking about. The air average of the walkway, they're fairly wide. It's not like, yeah, they're just my body can fit through them. They're probably two three.

They're also not sanging it in like they're going to pretty slow at that point.

On Vergin, they don't let you put your bags underneath the seat, well, not the ones that I when I've traveled, but they do.

They're not a.

Strict I put my hand back.

Do you find the Virgins in comparison to Cornders seats bigger or smaller the same size?

I think virgins are a bit bigger.

Really doesn'tant just have food? Doesn't Virgin you got to buy on every day? Give me the food.

Biscuits. I reckon the jet. I reckon the jet. Star planes are small as far as the.

Place looks, but get stars like taking a bus.

Well, that's what I mean. I reckon, like I reckon how them seats are together.

I reckon they have squeezeding extra row in jest star then corners. I reckon there's an extra row there at least if.

Not too okay.

Actually I don't travel jet start, but sometimes you've got to, you know, And in times i've had to, they're actually better than I thought they would be.

So, you know, I know, complaining too much.

And sometimes there's an issue too as anyone ever picked up your bag mistakingly? So I was standing at the bag at Brisbane. Yeah, I was standing at the baggage carousel, no bag, and I'm thinking of myself. I'm stood there for a good half an hour, and then someone walked back through the doors of my bag and they said, We're so sorry. And I said, out of interest, what did your bag look like? Lookd at nothing like mine? I said, well, what'd you pick up mine? There was nearly a confrontation, little bit problem. Well I was a little bit cranky, it was a bit tight and we got there one three one eight seven three the number two GB dot com click onto the feedback icon.

Not a sellout if it Isn't already the panther's Taking on The Eels. At combank, stadium of Course we've got origin players. Potentially backing up we might be able to shed some light on that in just a moment when we Catch Up. With ben gardner but we, love these rivalries even though they're languishing in seventeenth and fifteenth spot. On the ladder who would have thought that a few rounds, into the competition especially with the full time reigning premier is their Assistant Coach. Is benny gardner he's on the line. With Us, Now, hey, ben hey guys. Here you go thanks for having me, on really well thanks, for, Joining Us mate huge Battle of. The west tomorrow ge should be up.

For, this one yeah big Game? Four o'clock? Sunday are they footy doesn't get much, better than?

That? Does it.

Now it doesn't What about, your origin players They're going to they're going.

To back up they've been in and. Around training today there's a couple of, niggles amongst them, so hopefully, they you know they're able to ice up and get themselves right and ready to go. For the, mind you know we've got a pretty big squad this week because of the number of guys that. Are in origin, but you know you wouldn't change, that for anything would you?

Out, of interest now you wouldn't been. Out of interest do the players sort have come back from origin and say to you they definitely? Want to play and is more is it more of the medical staff that are reluctant to allow them? To back up how does? That all work and out of those discussions sort. Of, play out.

Yeah it's a, careful balance really like most of them do want to come back, and play, that you know like, you mentioned, there you know there's the medical, side of things, and you know we've had a few guys that have had injuries coming out of the back end of origin out the last. Couple OF years so i suppose it's looking at the individual plays history, and you know if they don't have a history of softs issue injuries and, stuff like that it's sort of left. Up to them but, the medical staff they're experts in their area and. We trust them so as they sort of say it's not the right, thing, to do, well you know we work with that and then move forward into.

The, next week ben just to getinue on with this, conversation about, origin your players and he's gone by the last four or five visa when you've, had big representation you've had a number, of wins already so you've been able. To wrest them you've had that luxury of being able to rest guys that haven't had. To back up you're sort of at the stage now where you almost have to play them if you want to be in the top, eight as concerned all that might come back to haunt you by the back end of the year if they if they don't get.

A good rest i think the way that we've looked at, it is, is you know we want to play our players. If we can we're not really worried about the back end of the year. At the moment we're just worried about getting our season on track and playing. Positive footy tomorrow so we'll deal with that when. The time comes but, at the, moment you know if the guys are available, to play tomorrow their, team to play and we're keen to have them.

In THE team, MAT i think i don't know how you're looking at the future or the next whatever number of games you've, got to go but you are at the bottom. Of the ladder you do need to, can't START winning and i imagine you just take your one game.

AT a time i.

BET you know, i just thought given the fact of desperate, situation you're in that, all these boys if, they can.

Play, will play yeah that's the old cliches and it take it one game, At a time, and you know, at the moment that's exactly what we. Need to do we need to keep each week nice and positive and plan well. For each game, and you know if the, guys are available, as we said there's a few, niggles amongst them but if they're good, To go tomorrow i'm sure they'll come. Into the team, and you know the Great thing About origin and gal you could probably talk about THIS better than i that you, come back energize particularly, after a win and you want to go and give your best. For the club so if the guys are good to, GO to myrow i think, that you know they'll get out there and do, that for us and that's some energy.

That we needed moving into, This Weekend's.

Game Benny house played lungey been he's obviously going to go and take on. His former club what's he been?

Like, this week yeah he's.

Been really, good you know you've probably seen over the last sort of four or five weeks he started to grow his game and get comfortable in the role that he's been. Playing for us, and you know he went through the preseason where he had a shoulder reconstruction and some work, on his shoulders so it was always going to take him a little bit of time to sort of get himself into the swing of. Things for us but he's really hit the ground running the last two. The threet weeks, and you know coming up against, your old club there's. Always rivalry, there you know that's added to the rivalry Of The two western suburbs. Teams as well so he's excited and there's not Much, that phases blaze to be. Honest with you so you know he's not too worried about coming up against, the old club but he's definitely excited about being able to go out there and play. Against old mates, and you know at the end, of the day Now as, the panthers player, so you know when they had him to get out there and do what he does for us the.

Best he can it's.

A big game it always is beenwth, and the. HEELS isn't it i mean that rivalry Forever since the panthers came. Into the competition but this is a particularly big dig game for both sides, because you know the loser of this is really going to struggle to. Make the eight, but you know and that you know your SIDE obviously Last i think parametter of fifteenth or.

Something like that, it's a big. Big, game tomorrow, Yeah, It is darrel it's a.

Really big, Game you know i'm not so. Worried about them it's more about us and making sure that we're. Ready to go, but you know you're. Right the table it's a funny, table this Year isn't it like it's between eighth and where we are, at the moment it's. Still very close so making sure that you're just sort of taking steps, forward each week, and you know if we can get on a bit of a winning run over the, next few weeks, well you know who knows, What will happen, but You know, as i've said you know it's about this week and they talk about Tomorrow been the Battle, of the west and one, thing's for sure our guys will be ready to Go for the Battle.

Of the west so pretty.

Exciting for us fantastic great, To, catch up ben good luck TOMORROW made and i know the team will see you out there and untill be shown live and free On nine's Wide. World of, sports go well thanks.

For the chat thanks you. Guys appreciate.

It well done buddy There He is ben Guard and the. Panther's assistant Coach. Panthers and eels you'll hit that game tomorrow with a. Continuous call same just while we Were talking, to ben there a story's popped Up on. The Telegraph website pete bdell Is Reporting that wayne bennett claims The state of origin calendar could rob a club. Of A Premiership Despite wednesday night's origin opener attracting a, Monster television audience bennett believes the current interestate, model is unsustainable unfair AND crippling. The, nrl premiership obviously his opinion holds. Plenty of weight he's the super coach. For A reason but i've Got to be i'm a bit tired of. THE whole debate i think We've tried standalone origin before and it was pretty ordinary and people were complaining there wasn't a. Lot of football what do? You guys think does it?

Mean?

TO change no i Hated. THE standalone ORIGIN i just i think they had three weeks with. THE comp stopped i just think it lost all. Momentum, during, that, NOW look yeah I think there's i think you're going. To Look at is origin made, for the clubs the players or. FOR the fans i think it's the fans are the people who pay the money and that's why these blokes get.

The.

BIG money Now i know, adam last night The, coach of newcastle he made a lot. Of good points he made a lot of good points that they've probably been unfairly treated a little bit during The start. Of origin period but, from their. Perspective they're fortunate they don't have a LOT of representatives i think, at THE moment AND i don't. I don't care I think it's i think the way they've got to the moment is. THE best way i love it at this. TIME of year i love the fact that the middle of the year they just bring in the new competition that gets. EVERYONE excited some i mean every club is going to be affected by it. In some way well most clubs are going to be affected by it. In some way and you, can you, know winners win and losers can do what they want, to do right so to my, way of, thinking You know and i'm not trying to Argue here with. BENNETT over this i think the way they've got at the moment. IS exactly right i, think it's big is.

GOOD to look i don't think at the end, of the day there's never going to be a perfect system which is going. To PLEASE everyone and i Really Listen to wayne bennett's opinion ON everything because i do think he's the greatest coach. OF all time i really respect his. Opinion on things, BUT you know i just think that there is never going to be a perfect. System TO it and i agree with. THE big one i think this time of year is absolutely perfect Besides winning a grand for it's a duel in the crowd. Of the game people pay so much money to go and there's a. Big one set it's, about the fans about The People in New, southales and queensland. Which IS huge so i think where it is, at the moment it fits the best it. CAN possibly fit i.

Think we'll furgo when your factory in streaming. And everything else there was an audience of over five Million people. On wednesday night that's five million eyes pairs of eyes on the game, of rugby league which is, a GREAT thing and i know clubs will be upset. That it's unfair i'm just reading. Some comments here Bennett's the worst origin schedule is the one we've. Got RIGHT now all i know is it's unfair on the clubs and we just. Keep tolerating it the, bottom line is in, this current schedule it has a huge IMPACT on the nrl and that's why we need to look at, Things, and say okay what are we going to? Do about this the club CEOs need to fire. Up about it but if we want watch best, for the game, five million people five million eyes on Each state Of origin on wednesday says to me it's working, as it is.

IT'S absolutely working i think it's also very sensitive in this, year in particular like if you have a look, at The ladder the bulldogs are at the top, on twenty two then It goes the Raiders and the, warriors on eighteen and the ladder. Is So tight the panthers, are at seventeenth but. They're on nine they're only three points off. Making the eight so it's just that every club is feeling so vulnerable at the moment because there are five. Teams on twelve there are a few teams On ten like it's just it's such a hard competition and this origin period. Is so fascinating it can be so it can be so crucial to so many teams if they're not getting those origin, players backing up and it can. Be so influential but that also makes it more exciting.

For, the fans well we just have this obsession with trying to stuff around with. Things that work. It works done if, it ain't. Break don't fix let.

Me just ask you. Guys.

A question this we've had THIS system for i don't, know how, long, ten years, TWELVE fifteen years i don't know how long we've been playing origin around this. Time of year can you name a club and it. MIGHT have happened i might. Be wrong here can you name a club that has been denied a premiership because of? State of origin do you think over that? Period, OF time no i understand what he's. TRYING to say i understand. One Hundred percent but i'm telling you this is for the good of the of the fans. AND the game i think the game and the players get well played, to play football and what do they get paid now.

To play a game thirty so. IT'S nine, GAMES i think.

I know, it's you know if they're going to play three weekly, you know events they're still going to. Get ninety Grand well that i'm, telling you that, in my opinion this is the. Best Possible way.

That, the other thing the other point to make about, all of this and it's it comes up from. Time to time, and, you know admittedly yes We work for Channel nine and channel nine are the. Main rights holders the reason why players are earning massive money is because.

Of.

Broadcast deals, YEA you know i think it's two thirds of the money comes from broadcast or something. Along those lines so the players and the clubs can't have. It both ways you can't at the same time be saying we want to be, paid top dollar but then at the same time say, to the broadcasters well it's not working having Origin on. A wednesday night we want, to stand alone we want to play it. On the weekends it just doesn't. Work THAT way so i think you've just got to give some appreciation of the massive money that. Comes from broadcast that is the reason why these players are remunerated the, way they are and they deserve. Every single cent but you can't trail it back in the faces of.

The broadcast exactly.

There are a lot of weeks in the lead up during the normal season that they don't actually. Make any money the origin. Period is it this is the big, money making part and it works because of how many. People watch it and that's exactly what these decisions.

ARE based on i think that's lost on a few people when we. Have these debates everyone Thinks that a, mike h, tho you know my club's got to. Win, the premiership well your club's got to. Win the premiership the players also want to be. Paid big money where does that? Money Come from just channel nine. And everything else.

Every single coach in the inner wants they want Four or five origin players. In their side that's the way.

You win premierships you have a look at every ten that's on the premis of them repair there's the one, that pass four there are five or six.

In their Side you need origin players. To Win premiership so i'm with a big man.

ON this one i think the way it is at the moment is the best it's going to be and probably the best outcome.

We can have so let's just get. On, with it yeah ten.

Six the Score Melbourne leading gold coast is WET on the gc, at the moment thirty seconds to play in, the second half fourteen, Points to Six Melbourne, leading gold coast kick to Come. For the storm we are the continuous call team Halftime On the gold coast sixteen. Points to six Melbourne Leading the gold coast sixteen, points To six the Storm over the Titans After the gold coast skipped out to an early lead in. That first half just off the back of Our, Chat about origin gow a couple of people on, the email saying, can you leady Can you ask paul how difficult it is backing up after the, state of, origin the bumps the bruises and the body of.

The Turning difficult as ben, asked the question it all depends. On the result, if you, win you're flying you're, ready to go you feel on top. Of the world you, know everyone's praising, you have patting you're. In the back, you turn up your, teammates are happy and you want to thank your teammates for helping. You get there but, if you lose it to tell, a different story because As you heard Ben say and, laurie said earlier it is like a season within. Those three games every preparation, that build, up the pressure the expectation, is so much and if you go out there and you bust your backside and the result doesn't, go your way it can be really really hard. To take it and you can't take a couple of days. To get over, to be honest.

Like you do you know we all have that sort of you become a, little bit selfish, rue about yourself but you do have to think.

About your teammates and try and put. Your teammates, first get there didn't, that exactly right so you want to do your, best for them but it is. It is hard you just you just feel the bumps and bruises a whole lot. More after loss i'm just seeing some people who have written in here and, sent SEMs is, and you know it's okay for.

They can't move.

There's This bloke saying origin should be. A standalone event it's completely SEPARATE. To the nrl so where do? You, put it well you know. What it does it IT makes the nrl explode again with. EXCITEMENT and. WHATEVER i mean i know there's going to, be some injuries there's going to be, clubs you know who are, disadvantaged by, it and well Luck.

Isn't isn't there an old adage as well that you become a Better. Player for origin so at the end, of the day they're not going To effect from origin. For your clubs is.

A good thing every club wants Four or five origin. Plays every club so have you got to suck it up and move?

The.

Second half team i've got my Mother, down from brucebane my stepfather and my nephew who's Flowing back from england and staying with us for.

A little while some. Sort, of, celebration no no.

Not at all it's just he's decided to Move. Back to australia he's only what, FIFTEEN sixteen now i think?

Who's been living?

Where was he he was with his Mum. Over in england so he's come back to live with his dad and he's sort. Of his grandparents he brought it to the party house for. A, little while, Yeah he. SAID i'm COME i can i just? Stay WITH you and, I said no i'm.

Not.

Home much, BRO he goes.

I.

Tell you.

Why it's amazing he's a, he's, a gamer right SO he's created. I didn't, realize He, said uncle mark have a look at. My bank account so he. Opened his phone you're ting greend. In the bank did you?

Make your gaming because people stream, him, so no no, what.

He's done he's, created these games online games or something and people have to pay to play.

It, or something wow he's. A little entrepreneur he's.

Created the game how long it would take other fifteen year old kids like working at. Macas or something, but.

You know first IMAGINE that because i was looking through the paper TO day and i Was Looking, AT harvey norman i think or the big there's a big fold out of all the things, that THEY sell and.

I was amazed there's about five. Pages for. Gaming it's huge didn't know it. Was so big is it the money making venture? Gaming, or, apparently well yeah.

Because there are a lot of people that stream and get, paid to stream so like they're just. Playing and chatting.

Of.

The biggest reckon one of the biggest marks for gaming at the moment is.

Middle, aged women yeah if you're hot, and the.

Gaming play the game at work and the kids are? At SCHOOL game can? I play gaming they make money. That they can.

But one of the biggest markets as far as like selling games or people buy an xboxes.

Middle aged women so you can sit, there at home or you can watch it. On, your phone. Right big money you open your phone and you can go on it like a streaming app and you can. Watch people games, so for instance a big market could be a good looking chick that's, good at gaming and what you see is you see her screen of what whatever the game. She is playing you get also an angle of her sitting, there doing it and. She's decent, looking but yeah and then they.

Just Chat close so i'm watching, Video Game correct so i'm not. Playing a video you just.

Want to when you. Hear, their conversations.

Yes YOU pay for i. Don't understand changing.

It's like YouTube it's like. When you YouTube when, you watch YouTube it's all the ads and all that. Sort of stuff. That's the income but people make millions. From streaming games.

Good looking women, well not women, teen ages anyone but the good players Like on that fortnite game that the good the really good players that they have hundreds.

Of, thousands of people, billions of people and.

They all streaming they all have to.

Pay to play so that's where the terrelly thing is that because.

Example of some one watching that's.

A Great example but i'm just saying the ones, that make money they either have, really good chat they've got, a high profile or.

Some of them i've got an, Idea, for, you midweek bro why don't you yourself watching the? Races eating chips people can pay To Watch.

The, BIG man yeah i DON'T know if i want THAT done because i scratch areas and. Things like that there's a, market for you bra, AND you know i don't.

Think THERE is as, i said before technology has definitely. Passed me by but It's only it's funny's ONLY this morning i was looking in the paper and reading about all, the you know the gaming products.

That, are available jesus. THAT'S a. LOT i. Don't i don't i've never really understood what gaming. Is all about the thing against me is like. The massive screens.

They've, GOTTEN everything yeah i tell you what helps kick it off to ANOTHER Level, is, covid.

Yeah, true.

TRUE true true i don't how did we? Get onto this, oh that's right my nephew. Creating the games but the one thing that he's done in the last, twenty four hours It's concerned Me.

Kevin, The cat right So.

I don't think you're supposed. To, shower cats, yeah that's well you're not supposed to wet them and wash. THEM at all i.

DON'T think so i actually Feel sorry for kevin the cat because he's been. Given a haircut, he looks terrible and he's just scareding away over it because he's. Scared OR something and i Don't know what i'm. Supposed to do so you're saying he did not.

On the, footpath and look they're only, four AND sixteen so i don't know if there's an age of it where or where you're supposed, to ride them or how you're supposed, To RIDE them but i would much rather my kids on the footpath and be a little bit careful when they're coming up to someone and. Ring the buzzle they always ring the buzzle when they come. Up Behind someone but i'd rather them on.

The foot path, on the road you know where, They're Really Bad. Long chark park there they come out of school without. WEARING a helmet i was traveling along to Go out to cronella. The other day the young kid on the bike was going AS fast as i was going.

To the windows If, HE knows anthony i.

Don't think ice cream is, good for me to be really, honest WITH you but i do give it mine just, a little bit a little bits ice.

Cream, Of choice well i'm just happy, with plain.

Ice, blue ribbon yeah, the blue ribbon blue ribbon with. ICE we talk i feel like we've had this comment.

And know what malt was used to see dogs dogs get an ice Cream After the wentworth park Dogs the wister whippy Van Outside the. Wentworth park dogs you to do. A roaring trade.

Probably still does trying to tell me. With, the, greyhounds yeah.

Greyhounds mister whippy, if, they won yeah.

We might have gray.

Hand traders listening if you win, a greyhound race the dog gets two. Ice creams.

Athletes as if the, Grayhounds are saying, I'm an athlete i'm not having the trader, would be? Though the trader would the greyhounds get? An Ice, cream wentworth, part mister? Whippy roaring trade what's an ice cream? Going to do maybe they're not, good for dogs but come on.

If you're, wrong one three one. Eight seven three if You've Been to wentworth part and you've seen the greyhounds having, a soft serve give us. Is the number, in the Meantime The new south Wales Women's coach john strangers on the line off the back of their two one victory In this. Year's origin series.

Hey giant guys.

There we're going have you ever.

Seen a greyhound having?

An?

ICE cream.

NO i haven't i liked, THE idea though i like the theory you're.

Going with them would you give it? To?

YOUR athletes strange.

I don't know some of them probably would.

TAKE it up i.

Don't tell me none. Of those girls i've never had ice, cream, come.

On yeah Probably have actually john well done on THE series when i. Suppose mixed feelings you would have loved, the clean sweep but the maranes is too good, The, other night.

Yeah Well they were they wanted it, more than us which was a really good learning experience. For our girls we spoke about it in the sheds afterwards, around you know the feeling they had there, and you know it's we sort of tried to talk to them during the week around The mindset the queenslanders are going to come with, and you know we're gonna have. To be better we're gonna have to be desperate because that's what they're. Going to, be but yeah we weren't as. Desperate as them the girls definitely, wanted to, win but yeah the desperation wasn't there because they'd wrapped the series up from us, and you know was for The. For the queensland so it was. A for me it was a great opportunity to just talk, about you know that's a lesson for us to learn and if we're in, this situation again hopefully we are for the girls to remember back to how it felt right there for them and hopefully that'll be a driver.

How'd You Find. Coaching origin stranger obviously you've come off The Back, of club land but this was your First Crack.

At.

ORIGIN footing yeah, i loved it absolutely loved it working, with you know the best players, in the game or some of them obviously you know half of them With. With the, maroons but yeah that was really exciting, meeting new, people you know staff and players, from other clubs and that was great as well because it's really good experiences for me to take take away and the, challenge as well the challenge, of you know having a really good, group of, players you know up against another good, group of, players you know.

At, that level.

Yeah it was it was. Really really, enjoyable you know it's obviously to get the get the series win does sort, OF make it i guess something, That you know. I'll always, remember but, yeah the experience no, matter win lose will draw the experience that would have been.

Awesome.

For, Me mate look i've, Got to say i'm just going back to the first game and you won.

That pretty well in, the second game you.

Deserve the win the thing that really struck for me was that the fitness level of the girls and the way they played in this.

Three game series when you consider.

They're not playing club football and they've had to basically prepare, themselves without playing it's really difficult and to play at that level in that intensity for like what do you play seventy minutes for seventy? MINUTES per game i just found it, quite incredible really and it's a great credit to everyone involved in those in.

Those, three games yeah absolutely know you're one, hundred percent right and that keeps improving with the. Girls every year it's how they prepare themselves and you know they've all got access to dietitians. And SEN c's but i will say it's The first time i've WORKED with THE. S And, c tom watkins he actually Works In, the south pathways but The first time i've, worked with him and, he was. Brilliant you know so the fact that the girls were as fit and as strong and as fast as they were was it was a really big credit to him and also the inneral w s and c's that the girls. Consistently work with, but but yeah there was a big focus on, us this, year you know being for the girls to be prepared as good, as they, can and yeah it's only Improved the game like.

You said on the topic of Scheduling, women's origin stranger where would you like to see?

IT right now i think it's it is perfect from where the women's game is in relation TO the aneral w it will naturally head towards where, the boys are but that that'll happen, when you know the girl's inneral w comps full time and they can play their normal rounds and then get picked on form through their clubs, and you know and break and go into campslot that. The boys do say, IT right now i think the scheduling of what the aneral have done. Is absolutely perfect and the fact that they've given both states a six week training block with the. Squad of, thirty without that like he would have been. A poor product it. Really would of so the fact that they've allowed that paid the girls as well for that six, week training block so you're knowing that they're going to have to commit a fair bit and leave work early and. Things like THAT so that's i think where it is that right, now is perfect but it's all going to be dependent on, the you know when it goes full time and YOU know the cba has done until the end of twenty twenty seven like it is with THE men's and i think my thoughts are when they REDO the next cba from, TWENTY eight onwards i think the women's game will be at the level of full TIME and then i think from there on and that's what they'll look At Scheduling the origin series like they do.

With the, boys, Great, stuff well john good to have you, on, The show mate well done on the two to one series victory and good luck for the future and at club, level as well MATE for the. Nrlw season ahead. Appreciate your time well. Thanks For That, it's john strange the Coach of. The blues himself, contract, extension too yeah.

Twenty twenty seven he's. A, great coach well he won a premiership in twenty, one twenty four Just Won, the origin series so deserves the contract Extension at the russ's.

Air and sounds like. A good fellow jobs the other they did look Really happy the blues girls.

OH under him i, don't know it, never MET him but i mean he's clearly got a fair bit of bit of ability.

As a coach.

One, Hundred percent look i'm still really good mates with a lot of the women that are playing and some of the things that they've said just the way that and it's the same story that we get from a lot of the great coaches, in our game is the connections that he forms with all, of the individuals but also just having that ability to form the connections and then also get the best footy. Out Of Them, and jesse, southwell for me is the prime example of performance on the field Being Coached, by john strange because we've always. Seen this potential in her last SEASON, during the anlw she didn't have, her best season she Wasn't, picked for Origin But, under john strange he not only gave, her the confidence but he also find some of her skills, in her Game and in game one and, two in particular she went to a whole other level as a twenty year. Old ball player she Completely dominated. The origin stage, but those stories having spoken to a lot of the players that they basically have the same, thing to say that they're playing their best. Footy under him all of the information. Is very direct they know exactly.

What he wants she seems to.

Mature a, Bit to, Me jesse said she's always been, A great talent but to me from an, outsider looking in it just looked like there was always a little bit of. DRAMA around her i don't know if that's.

True, or not, no it, is it is but she has. A big personality but tell me players or athletes of any colorber, in any sport in big ARENAS that don't, i think Exactly.

Something like andrew johns is probably. Her Favorite player and joey's a big fan. Of Fairs, also but. Joey she's good.

Don't have to have someone that manages that. Part OF it and i think That's Exactly what john stranger.

Was able.

To great stuff congratulations to him And to the blues a two. One series victory now we've got to get. To a break we'll come back and habit chat. To our Listeners allen and. Allen stay There there's two allen's on the board that can tell Us whether the Greyhounds Get a mister whippy. After they race I'm telling you i'm going to. Be proven right YOU guys Think i in.
