Speaker 1 (00:10):
My Heart podcasts here more mixed one or two point
three podcasts, playlists and listen live on the free iHeart
app not cut in color at all. No, this segment
will be the death of me. Doing the footy tips
every Thursday genuinely ruins most of my weekends. Why because
(00:32):
I sat there yesterday right I had Sunday.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
My wife is still overseas I've done.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I woke up, I did the shopping, I took the
dog for a walk, I did my washing. I did
everything I needed to do, and I had nothing to do.
I have no responsibility, not a care. I can even
imagine what that is. I know I don't have children.
My dog was tired all afternoon. I'm sitting there on
the couch. I'm like, I'm going to play the PlayStation
and I'm going to watch some football. And I sat
(00:59):
there and I watched Gold Coast and GWS one of
the games of the year. And I watched as GWS
came back and beat Gold Coast, who I had tipped,
two teams that I could not care less about. And
it completely ruined my afternoon? Is it?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Because like, what did you get in your tips this week?
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Three out of seven?
Speaker 4 (01:23):
So which is well below part like, that's not a
good result. No, it sucked so, especially as a sportsman
on Channel ten. And we trust you, know we trust you.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
But why do you think you are a loser in
the tipping world?
Speaker 2 (01:37):
See traditionally I've not been I've been quite good.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
I think I came second in the work tips last
year year before I won the Channel ten month which
has got way more staff.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
So what's happened to you?
Speaker 1 (01:45):
I've had a good couple of years and this year
all of the chickens are coming home to roost or
whatever it is, because I'm just.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Not getting anything. It's not working for me.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
People like our social media producer Michael McNally, who keeps
telling me I don't know anything about footy, but I'm
betting you and the tips just keep coming in and stomping.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
But so much, don't you.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
And I sit there on the weekend and a game
that I should very much enjoy it just ruins my
weekend And as a result, I don't want to do
the tips anymore.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
You're just going to give up?
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I would like, are you seven? Quit the AFL tipping?
I don't want to be on here every Thursday.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Putting it because I'm trying to help the people that lad,
I'm letting them down. I'm doing everything in my power
to help them and it's not working.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
But Max, this is what life is about. You make
mistakes and you get better from it. You don't always
have to be right. This is a good thing.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Footy tipping. You literally have to be right all the
time to win. That's the point of it.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Yeah, but I don't be giving up. I'm fifteen rounds.
I know you're terrible, and I've enough.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
You're not You're not going.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
To mediocre, and I've had enough of the mediocrity.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
You're average, and you're in your life.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
You're used to being the best at everything I try,
and you can't stand that you're not the best at this.
So don't give up. Continue enough. I like it that
you're bad at footy tipping.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Kids out there.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
There comes a point in life where someone will say
to you, you know what, you have to keep going.
You have to put your head down, you have to
put your nose to the grindstone.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
You can't give up now. This is not that time.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Because also sometimes you should just quit and leave it
to someone else.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Let's see, I'm done. I'm quit finishing this is it?
Someone else can do it this week? Okay, who's going
to do it? I'm not doing it.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Don't be stupid, stand up and do it. I'm backing you.
You're you're the biggest fan. Quit you said a couple
of weeks ago. Your son got a nine. He can
do it.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Your thirteen year old soneen year.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Old's quite good at it. Yeah, but he doesn't like basketball.
He doesn't care about footy. He just literally just picks whatever.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
I do care and it's not working for it. Keep
doing it.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
This is You're the worst example for the kids listening
to this show. Don't give up. You're starting to do
it next week. This week Thursday Footy Tips with Austin.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
You're all right, thirteen year old son, I'm disappointed, inn't
you all right?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Don't care, I've quit. We've just had a very sad resignation.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Pack it up, guys, sometimes you got to pack it up,
and I've done just that. Footy tipping will no longer
be done by me this yek. I'm sick of being
mediocre something around the weekend.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And I'm quitting my thing. It's really sad. Findy Tips elsewhere.
You're not a good role model.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
George and Carolta Park has followed my tips all year,
and I don't like letting George down.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
I love George. He's a friend of the show. Morning George.
Speaker 5 (04:37):
Hey, guys, hereyalling terrible mate, question Max. Don't feel too bad, buddy.
I only got four myself, and I put my tips
in on a Wednesday, Mate, and I listened to what
you've got to say, and then I say, well, I
didn't copy Max, but I put mine in. So don't
feel too bad. But I've got a bit of an
idea for you.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
What is it, George, I'm open to anything. At this point.
Speaker 5 (05:01):
You have an envelope. Haley's son has an envelope. Then
we open each envelope, compare the two, and we'll see
who ends up with a better result.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
See George, that doesn't help me because I can't pick
well at the moment.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
This is the whole problem. Doesn't matter where I put it.
By saying out louder, if I put in an envelope,
my tips are still crap.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Well, Max, I'm in one hundred. I'm in a competition
one hundred and fifty people, and I'm coming forth and
only got four myself.
