Speaker 1 (00:06):
You're listening to the All Sport Breakfast podcast with Darcy
Waldgrave from News talks'd be.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Like a coffee on Saturday morning. It wouldn't be the
same without a Jim Dolan, although I don't think I
could stick you in a cup and drink you get out. Jim,
how are.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
You You didn't send him up to see Blade Runner
before you talk to him again?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I gotta say it, really, who hasn't seen Blade Runner?
I'm start I was talking about it and then he goes, oh, no,
I haven't seen a Maybe it's just a generational thing.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Maybe yeah, they catch it's still that long anymore.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
And I just think Sean Young lost gorgeous, even though
she had a replicant around with it. Anyway, how did
I get onto that subject? It doesn't matter. Let's go
from a pariah to a savior in one week. Who
could do that.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Well?
Speaker 3 (00:53):
In the NRL There's probably been a few, but this
week it's Lucky Galvin, who was banished to the New
South Wales Cup last week after it was revealed that
he will not be at the West Tigers in twenty
twenty seven. And now they need some help in the haves.
So Jack Bird is urging Rockey Galvin to just pop
(01:13):
the last two weeks on the chin and back himself
when he returns to decide to play the Sharks at
like Oval tomorrow. Bird also urging the fans to get
behind Galvin in his first N Hour role game since
it became public that he wants to leave. So I'm
not sure how the West Tiger's favor will be. Imagine,
if he scores a try early, he'll probably get him
on side. But I'd imagine when he comes out with
(01:35):
all of the first couple of touches it will involve
a little bit of booing. Teammates say he's been his
usual self at training and hope he will be the
same when it comes to game time.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
On what's his usual self? Is he flighty? Is he
got thin skin because of the Is he's going to
be right trouble?
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Well, from some of the comments from his teammates, I
think he's the butt of their jokes at training because
this is under blake in the Z eye.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
No, so this could be cataclysmic, is what you're saying.
Watch the game and see if we can watch someone
fall grace in the space of six tagles.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Well, if he wants to talk up his playing value.
I'd imagine he needs to start doing on the field.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
On the subject of contract negotiations, you have more lots
of players you believe in what cod.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Well since Galvin is out of contract for twenty twenty seven.
That is when the new Western Bears look like coming
into the NRL. All the boxes being picked for it
to go ahead. In Perth, Brad Arthur is already being
spoken about as the coach of the team. He will
build the Bears from scratch for this twenty twenty seven
(02:43):
season start. I can't imagine the people at Leeds are
very happy at the moment because Arthur is currently coaching them.
So the Bears aren't off the ground just yet. They can't.
They look like they will be knocked back. But it
seems that the NRL isn't going to wear Western Bears.
They want the Perth Bears or the Wa Bears. Included
(03:06):
geographic tie in, which is ironic because when the last
team was allowed in the Dolphins, they were forbidden to
use Redcliffe, which may have tied them to an area
which the Broncos like to see as their own. So
we'll see how all that happens, but yes, twenty twenty seven.
That means a lot of players will be having an
extra option if they want to go and live in
the well the west of the country, which is a
(03:29):
two hour plane flight at least, and the clubs will
probably not kick up too much of a fuss because
part of the deal of the Bears coming into the
NRL is the other seventeen clubs will receive one million
dollars each.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Jim, this is just dumb. The Bears are not a
Perth team. They're not and I can't call them the Bears.
I don't care about the geographical situation when it comes
to are they West and are they North Perth or whatever.
The Bears are not from Western Australia full stop.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
You wouldn't be a pan of the Perth Dar's playing
a home game at North Sydney Oval. Then no, can
we just call them they're.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
The North Perth Quakers because that's the only similarity they've
got to a Bear over there? Am I wrong?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Yeah? There's not too many Beers in Western Australia, none
at all.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Right, let's move on to our final subject, New Trophy
and super duper Rugby.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
What is that yes, the two teams have got together
this week for the photo shoot with a brand new, shiny,
very large trophy. It is the Shout Cup, which will
be played between the Brumbies and the Hurricanes whenever the
two teams meet. I didn't realize there's a lot of
senergyspose both capitals, but their sister cities Canberra and Wellington.
(04:49):
And now the Shout Cup, which when I saw the
name it had me intrigued. I thought, well, what does
someone lucky person in the crowd get to see how
quick that can scull a beer? We're going back to
the nineteen seventies. But no, it's part to do with
the ANZAC weekend, named in the honor of Captain Alfred
Shout vc MC and the hero of Gallipoli. He had
ties to both Australia and New Zealand and sadly he
(05:12):
was died of wounds in I think thirty four But
a rugby flayer and they yes, a man they believe
symbolizes what's good between the two great nations. So they
will be playing for the Shout Cup tonight and Billy
Pollard is back in the starting front row for the Brumbies.
Interesting the Civ stays in the front rowers club after
(05:34):
scoring two tries when he came off the bench last week.
James Slipper also back in the front row.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
My thought shout because they're both capital so they both
follow politicians. That's all they do. Yeah, slightly more serious
than with all due respect mister shout it just last
question on this one. What are the chances of the
Hurricanes actually upturning this horrible bogey that no New Zealand
teams can pick. Did you know that no Kiwi superteam
(06:02):
has won over in Australia this year?
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Wow? I hope that that continues in the blood It's
low cup delay.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Jim Dolan, we'll talk to you next week. Thanks for
your time, but not your attitude. Yeah, you can't see
I had of bro Jim Dolan. They're joining us from Australia.
O Cocker's this much better idea than bears, isn't it?
