Speaker 4 (00:26):
Now we've got Teagan's brother, who's Corey's brother in law,
Liam on the phone.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
Get a Liam.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
Gooday, guys, Now, apparently there's some story that gets told
at dinner parties all the time about Corey.

Speaker 5 (00:40):
Yeah, yeah, there's a few stories that get told about him.
But yeah, the one of how we first met always
comes up.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
You think.

Speaker 5 (00:47):
The year was twenty fifteen. I was in my final
year of my university studies and Darted lined up with
Wayne Bennett at the time for me to do my
final placement at the Bronx. I'd rock up to work,
sit in the physio's office, chat to the players, go
and have coffees, and I was getting along with everyone
like a house on fire. But there was just one
one bloke at the club that just could not stand

(01:07):
me by the looks of things and by his body language.
And that bloke is one of the blokes sitting in
the studio with me.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Now, wonder why what was going on?

Speaker 5 (01:18):
I didn't know at the time. I didn't know what
I had done to him, and a few of the
boys that I knew there, they would say to me,
you know, if Corey Oates is not talking to you,
then you know he doesn't like it good. He just
doesn't shut up. I've found out. Probably about two weeks
before I finished my prack, my mum and I were

(01:39):
a bit of a catch up over a coffee and
Mom goes, your sister's seeing somebody, and I said, oh,
you know who is it. Have I met him? And
they go, yeah, you've met him. We've actually met him
quite recently. Actually, he plays for the Broncos. And you know,
immediately I start thinking, well, you know, most of the
blokes and the team are married. There's only a couple
who I know aren't in a relationship. So you know,
one of them was actually a really good friend of

(02:00):
mine at the time, Lockie Moranta, and I said, well,
it's not him. He wouldn't do that to me. And
so it just narrowed it down to one other person.
And you know, I said to Mom, oh, please don't
tell me that Chryot, and she just laughed. He goes,
yes it is, and short words coming out of my mouth.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
You're like the one a hole of the team.

Speaker 5 (02:24):
I have yet many words like that and words worse
than that. I said, He's given me nothing in the
eight weeks I've been at the club. Like he thinks
he's God's gifts. He's too good to talk to, just
a regular bloke, Like I'm just trying to finish a
Uni degree here and he's just making it so difficult.
And yeah, well, well mum's having a good giggle at
everything I'm saying because she knew.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
She just goes.

Speaker 5 (02:46):
Do you think the reason he was ignoring you was
because he didn't want you to know that they were
dating yet, and if he did speak to him, he
would have just given it away straight away. So instead
of just him trying to play it cool in front
of me, he just decided, well, I'll just completely ignore
the bloke gave weep and you know that way, I
won't give it away.

Speaker 4 (03:03):
And what I was going through your head, Corey, Yeah,
it was just I couldn't talk.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
I just felt so and sleeping with your sister.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Not tall.

Speaker 6 (03:13):
Remember one morning I rocked up because I was usually
first there. Yeah, and he was sitting outside on the
bench because he didn't have a key, and I unlocked
the door and shut. I would have got stuck and
would I would have just every day I walked into
the visit room him be free and lives like, do
you want something like no.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
Can walk away?

Speaker 1 (03:36):
I mean, of all the things I'd say about your Corey,
Oats and ushole is not one of them. But it
sounds like you can turn that stuff on when you
need to.

Speaker 6 (03:44):
Well I just had to. Yeah, I think that because
Teagan was probably just more scared of Lee and finding
out and then Jean.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
So if you knew Liam, you tell your dad.

Speaker 5 (04:00):
He was the topic of conversation. Anyway, when I from
the Bronx, I go that, you know that, you know
what Oats has just given me absolutely nothing? You know,
don't pick that. You know what?

Speaker 4 (04:09):
Marriage affected your career compendously.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
With the big reveal, like when he turned up and stuff.
Did you have a conversation? Did you shake hands?

Speaker 5 (04:20):
I've gotten over it by then, I supposed to an extent,
but like if I was of you know, sound health,
I would have absolutely ripped into you. But I was
battling at the time. So yeah, you got to you
got off easy that day, you go, is that twenty sixteen, Yeah,
ten years ago, So your friends have.

Speaker 6 (04:40):
Forgotten, forgotten Jean out and the door and said, what
are you doing.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
When you're knocked on the door?

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Just for it?

We want to talk about first awkward meetings or rather
awkward first meeting. So whether it's your partner or your
partner's family, your boss, a famous person.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Yeah, thirteen one oh six five, if you have had
that thing that is etched in your brain, brain that
still makes your skin crawl because.

Speaker 3 (05:28):
It was just so awks. Yes, I still remember this
so well.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm going to call my girlfriend Sarah to protect the innocent.
We had spent months and months choosing which school we
were going to send our firstborns too. We'd looked at
the curriculum, we'd studied what, you know, the other kids
that were there. We were really excited that our boys
were going to start school together. First day of school,
rock up together We picked each other up, drove to

(05:54):
the school together.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
The boys were super happy.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
We walk into the classroom and I watched Sarah's face
go white, and I'm thinking, what's going on? The kindie
teacher is her husband's like the father of the child.
She's dropping off ex wife who they hadn't seen since

(06:19):
she cheated on him and left ge Okay, his wife
is going to teach. She the ex wife was the cheetah.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Oh right, she was the cheatah.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
She was the cheatah in a different state.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
Never seen them again.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
And here we are dropping off their firstborn and saying,
please educate.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
My treat this child like you would treat any other. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
And it was such as uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
I've got one more. And it was just before the
Liam incident all happened, And it was the first time
I actually spoke to Wayne Ben in his office Until
this day. It's still sort of not right, but it's
it's the it is the moment my whole career change.

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Okay, And it was awkward.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
It was so it's scared that living da perfect after this.

Speaker 6 (07:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Obviously Wayne came back end of fourteen and took over
the coaching roll, and I went, oh, this is the
best thing ever getting cached by weighing at the Bronx
and my holy this is awesome. Love me hopefully. And
you know, the first sort of month or two went
by and he just didn't speak to me, and I
didn't get nothing from it. I was just getting flogged
and I wasn't the fittest guy.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
I hated.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
I hated fitness, I hated all that sort of stuff.
I just couldn't do it. And then he called me
in the office because obviously I was having a wine
of you know, I was probably having a wind about
not getting anything from him or any feedback. And yeah,
he called me in the office and said I heard
you under chat and I said, oh, yeah, I just
just don't know where I stand and if you liked
me or or whatever. I just I don't I just

(08:01):
don't know what you think. And he goes, yeah, I
don't like you was what he said. I don't like you.
He said, you the next six months to change your mind,
otherwise you got and then he said wow. And that
was my introduction to pretty much talking about did that
make you just go hard shself?

Speaker 3 (08:21):
Yeah, happened to be honest.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
He helped me a lot, certainly, he said, Now don't
speak for the next three days. I just stuff that,
like just small things.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
Does that work? Like, just as, why didn't we know that?

Speaker 2 (08:31):
He magas it was just about beating your mind.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
So all right, let's talk about awkward first introductions, whether
it's a partner and boss, partner's family.

family member that he hadn't met. So we were sitting down
at the dinner table and I said, Hey, any Brenda,
you know this is my boyfriend Curly And she said,
oh Curly, I on that name, and she proceeded to
figure out that she actually helped raise him when he
was a baby. And then she dropped the bomb that
our families are related.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
Oh how related?

Speaker 7 (09:16):
Sam? Well, So we spent the next like five to
ten minutes, like with a fine tooth comb, just going
through that and unpacking it. And it turns out we're
related on her husband's side through marriage and not blood related.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Okay, good to go. Are you still yet?

Speaker 7 (09:30):

and then we didn't know each other for like fifteen
years and we've recently reconnected and we were laughing about
that story.

to fill so I asked them if I had their teeth,
But they had their own teeth, And.

Say that worked for you to day.

Speaker 9 (10:08):

weren't sure how to respond. They weren't really sure about me.

my thirties and my daughter. I had my daughter quite young,
and she told me she'd been dating a guy. And
the first time we went to dinner to meet him
with my husband. It was a guy I had slept
with in my past.

years younger than me.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
Right, Okay, So.

Speaker 8 (11:20):
I'd had I'd been out one night, had a drunken night,
took him home, sort of thought nothing of it. And
then years later he didn't realize who that she was
my daughter either And our first meeting, I locked eyes
with him and I just wanted to die.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Did you tell her?

Speaker 5 (11:41):
She knows?

Speaker 1 (11:42):
She knows, yes, And what was her reaction?

Speaker 8 (11:46):
She was not impressed. It was a bit of a
tense time for the both of us for a while,
but she got over it. She realized that, you know,
back in the day, i'd had, you know, I had
a colorful past, and yeah, got over it and they
got married recently twelve years later.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
That isn't like, Wow, they have been able to get
over that. You know, people don't get over someone insulted
me at Christmas? You get over you know what I mean?
That moved on for that is incredible.

Yes, So they've got two children now and they got
married earlier in the year.
