I want to I've got a little bit of a
bone to pick here. What have you got against the
Wellington Phoenix woman who moved to the top of the
A League table. Yet last week we're two on your
(05:32):
power rankings and they somehow dropped back to three. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Well, I thought about this a little bit. I mean
super Bowl super Bowl, so that was always going to
be number one, and I kind of tossed up between
the Phoenix women and the Blackfern sevens, and I thought, well,
the Wellington Phoenix woman won one game. It was a game. Yes,
it took them to the top, but you know our
I'm kind of an are of our Blackferon and sevens
if I'm honest, and they won another tournament. So that
(05:57):
was my thinking for what it's worth.

Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
