Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to the podcast for another week. And well, people,
we start with I suppose we start by being eternally
grateful the very fact that our we had a call
last week, the cooper had a car accident, and for
the grace of God, things could have been a lot worse.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
So you really change your lives forever.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
I'm not religious.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
We're very lucky. Yeah, yeah, that's all I can say.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
Yeah, and you've only just sort of come good now. Yeah,
you were pretty shaken up till I heard you come
in yesterday from work and you said, I feel myself again.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
Yeah, yeah, well I said that. I said, I said, guys,
don't give me too much work this week. Wait till
I get into the back end of my week and
it'll be my normal, jovialself again. It was a little
bit i'll tell you what, earlier in the week slow
between the years, because you guys know me and the
listeners know me. I'm sharp, I'm sharp, I'm witty, i'm quick,
I'm funny. But I was very slow during the week,

(00:59):
to the point where in the ad breaks people were saying, geez,
you're you're slow, and I thought, that's a horrible thing
to say, someone has just been in a car accident. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but I mean everyone's people have heard different lists. Some
of our listeners might not have known obviously. I flipped
my car last week. I landed on the roof of
It was very lucky, you know, not to be too unscathed.

(01:20):
Just a bit of a concussion, a bit of a
ko So it was lucky, which I've had plenty of
them before.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Tell us about what, tell us what you remember?

Speaker 4 (01:29):
Yeah, I remember driving, like the back right wheel. I
can't remember if like they merged into my lane. It
was the way it sort of happened, was like it
seemed like they were I was a little bit behind
them and their back wheel. They've come to merge into
my lane and our two wheels have sort of collided,
and then I just sort of got airborne and flipped

(01:50):
under my roof, which was, you know, pretty scary.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Tell you what they remember that time when you were airborne?

Speaker 4 (01:59):
No? No, no, no, actually no, sorry I do it
was sorry, just was trying to grab something of while
I'm talking a pretty serious thing, pretty serious topic for
you to be interrupting me. True, I don't want to
say anything. No, no, look like I remember being airborne
on that and it was pretty quick when I look

(02:19):
back now, very slow. Everything came out of my glove box.
It was floating like I was near Armstrong in space
buzz and everything was in front of me. I was like,
what's going on? Hitting stuff? And then I've hit the deck,
hit the hit the road. Everything's come forward. It happened
like mad quick. But yeah, when the worst part was,
I was just upside down and I was just like.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yeah, did you know you're upside down? We're fully aware
of it's straight away.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
Yeah, it's pretty aware. The blood in my head.

Speaker 3 (02:46):
Yeah, we went through your bag the other day because
you actually went to grab some of your stuff from
the smash repairs. Yeah, and all your your bag and
like some of your jumpers and stuff in there all
had like glass.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
I hope you cleaned it.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
Well, it's there for you too clean up.

Speaker 5 (03:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:02):
Yeah. But undid my seat belt drop straight to the
windshield like I was like in a plane, like those
plane movies where they crashed and they all under the
seat and they just dropped snakes on a plane.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
It was like that.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
But before that, and I've told this, I said this
on the radio as well. But I I must have
been somewhat conscious because I remember I'm sitting there and
the first thought was have I just have I hurt
someone else?

Speaker 1 (03:26):
That must have been an awful feeling.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
That was rank. That was a rank feeling, because no,
when I hurt anyone else, happy for me to be hurt,
happy to hurt myself, like, but I don't want to
hurt anyone else. And then my second thought was what
the fuck is playing on the radio? I had Abba
vult vu blasting. I must have been singing it hard
out because I get into Apple. I've always been a fan.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Remind me, no wonder, no under I flipped it and
then I was like ship because like emergency services are
on the way, people start run over to my car,
so I just.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
Like reach over all I'm upside down. Just give the
little dial a little twist down to zero. Yeah, that
would have been embarrassing. Cooper John's flips car and listening
to Ville.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
You were saying too the iPhone it like sent an emergency.

Speaker 4 (04:16):
Yeah, good queste ringing you didn't it? Excellent? Shout out
to Apple, thanks for putting this feature in. So when
you have a car accident, it must just know based
on the speed you're going into the instant stop, there's
been an accident, and it immediately calls triple zero. So
it rang triple zero while I was upside down, and
then they were ringing me like four or five times

(04:37):
because my car was still on so I couldn't get
the keys out because it was like stuck.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
So it's still on.

Speaker 4 (04:44):
So I kept ringing through my thing. I'm like really
loud that everyone in the street, could you. So I
was crawling back through trying to find my phone. Finally
found it and it was like zero zero zero kept
ringing me, and I was like, oh yeah, sweet, Like
I'm all good, just come and send a toad person.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
To come and how long were how many? How much
traffic was behind you? Right?

Speaker 4 (05:00):
My car flipped along three lanes.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Oh geez.

Speaker 4 (05:03):
So and I'm on a busy ride around lunchtime.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
So've ruined a lot of days.

Speaker 4 (05:07):
Yeah, well a lot of people have been sending The
people behind me were sending me like footage of meat.
Like to be fair, not enough people got out of
their car to come see the coop dog. I'm not
going to lie first. I come over. He was like
a garbo and he come up and he's like, Coops,
you are right, and I was like, yeah, good.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
A lot of potty listeners.

Speaker 4 (05:22):
Really, it must have been a fucking busy day for
our potty listeners, all of them like them and breakfast
radio listeners all coming through spraying me once they knew
I was sweet, spraying me going can't park there. I
heard that a thousand times. I heard that.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
I would have heard that.

Speaker 4 (05:36):
One liner a thousand times, and the coppers were like, geez,
they're into you. I was like, yeah, I don't know
what's going on, but yeah, look, I want to thank
everyone for the messages, lots of message I turned the
phone off on Friday, so I couldn't get back to
a lot of people, but a lot of our potty
listeners got in touch, lots of messages. Also, shout out
to the sport of rugby league because I was I

(05:59):
was sitting there getting the motion over the weekend while
you guys were all up at Magic Ground having fun.
So many so many Sure was it because it looked
pretty was a.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
Lot of fun.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
We had a lot of fun.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
Best wigains extra fun.

Speaker 4 (06:15):
Yeah, sure we will. I thought we had time for
and then just lots of like lots of people you're
meeting rugby league along the way, you might not necessarily
like keeping contact with them regularly, but when something happens,
they're always they get around you. So so many of
the manly and storm sponsors got in contact with me.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
And did you receive a message from someone that really
surprised you.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
I'd have to go back through, mate, I literally had thousands.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Sticky Ricky didn't say one.

Speaker 4 (06:51):
Just too soon, Mate, I was in a pretty horrific
car accident. It's too soon, I reckon. No, I didn't
get on for him. There would there would be like
there would be I'll try, I'll go through my phone
during the party and I'll read a couple that are okay.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
I'm going to run through a list of ones I
expect they would have texted, and we'll see if one
hasn't okay. Gas Gale Gap.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
The best Saturday Gazing. Gale was so they've been tipped
up because it was in the paper. Obviously they didn't
have social media. So I got on the front foot
and I like sort of sat on social media. I'm
sweet because I saw the reports coming out and they
were very click baby, very almost it looked like I died.
So I was like including Trish's post two days later, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
we're going to get to that. True put up a
post that said we miss you Cooper. It looked like

(07:33):
I died For people.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
It was because you weren't coming up to Magic I know,
but for context.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
You put a caption over the image, like honestly, it
was like a little memorial.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
For the CRUCIFIXI at the bottom. That was. But the
worst part.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Was not everyone would have known I'm not at Magic Round.
What about the people that weren't at Magic Ground who
didn't know that? And you're if you read the.

Speaker 5 (07:51):
Caption, I relate to the people what our conversation was
because I'd said to you, oh, who all come straight
home after the show, and you said, oh, please don't.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
Yeah. Yeah, but you were the epitome of clickbait because
the first thing people saw was we miss you.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Well, what happened the Melbourne storm before the game? Against camera?
Did a minute silence?

Speaker 5 (08:14):
Do they stop? Don't joke about these feel sick about
this as we're talking about.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
Making me I'm joking on that side of things. I
would never joke about a car.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
No, no, no, no, no, obviously it's we're a week and
a half on so look, it's all right, but sometimes
I'd like to we take the piece out of me
a lot in this podcast. This is the turning.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
What about Uncle Joey.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
Okay, yeah, Gaz and girl rang me, but I had
my phone off all day, so when they rang, Gaz
let me a voicemail. Coops, it's guys, you got to
bring me back. I'm bloody worried about. And again Gaz
was going in the phone call like love Gaz and
we love him and we're going to get him on
some stage. He just keep asking for too much cash.
But Gaz was like, I don't know what I'd do
without you, he said, and I went, Gazz, I'm pretty

(08:57):
sure you'd be all right. You'd like you see me
like twice a year, and you've got enough nieces and
nephews they'll get you.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Gaz once picked Trisha from newcast Leopord after you've been
to Bali for a week, and Gas started crying.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
He cried when he dropped me off, and he cried
when he picked me up.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
That's so bizarre emotional.

Speaker 4 (09:18):
But Uncle Joey, he.

Speaker 5 (09:21):
Awfully because I had spoken to Gail that morning because
I was worried that they're here.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Yeah, so I knew.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
They rang a bit late. But Uncle Joey talked about
a bike that was too late to the party. It
was like, and he might have been tipped off. Yeah,
I know, he said, Jack just told me. I said, mate,
it's been everywhere all day.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
It was like three days later. It was like three
days later, and I'm slow to the punch. I was
in country Road don'ts and was in there and I thought,
you know what, Cooper told me? He hasn't heard from
Uncle jose I give him a ring, mate, I said,
you spoke to Coop and he goes, no, what I said, Oh,
have you not read the news? And he goes, what happened?
I said, Oh, he's in a pretty bad car accident. Goes, oh, geez,

(10:03):
didn't didn't ask if you're right? When well, bloody give
him a ring.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
Then the conversation was so funny. He goes yeah, and
it was immediately like how was yeah, mate, I'm.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
All right, thank god all that stuff.

Speaker 4 (10:18):
And then he goes, yeah, made magic round.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
You're excited for magic.

Speaker 4 (10:24):
I was like, I don't know if I'm going Joey
and he goes, well, if you are, we'll catch up.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
I saw him at a Kelly Country. Well looked in
he was a Kelly Country. There was a there was
a winter clearness clearance sale and he was in there
trying stuff. I never knew he was Kelly Country. Kelly
Country is like a sort of like a tough country.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
Where oh really it's a brand.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Yeah, it's a brand's I can't another person who texture sweeps.

Speaker 4 (10:50):
I didn't hear from Tony what but they had games,
so I didn't hear from him by yeah, but not
you don't guarantee you everyone's going to see the news.
Didn't hear from belly A, Oh my god, but I
did hear it. But Frank Peronisi and a lot of
the Melbourn boys rang me on behalf of Billy K.
So let's say that Frank rang me on their game
day in the morning. So, but he'd only just found

(11:12):
out he got tipped off by someone you guys had
lunch breakfast with up at Magic Round, another football manager.
He said, he was like, oh, I just he said,
they spoke to your parents and they told him about
the cargo. So obviously a lot of a lot of
people you know, must have been living under rocks. They
didn't hear about it, Harry Grant. Harry rang me that,

(11:34):
not like I tipped off. I rang probably the night
it happened, because it come out on the Thursday when
a lot of the stuff started coming out, or the
clickbait and that. But I rang like five or six
of the boys the night before, just to let them
know before reading the before, like the close mates who
wanted to hear.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
About a contortionist Torren Wisher.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
You know I was into Wishy because I rang him
on the Wednesday. He was him and Harry. I rang
them together, and I rang Harry and then after Woods
wish he wasn't in the rooms and then she goes,
Harry's just showed me the picture. You're right, and I
ranging him straight back. He picked up with him two rings. Now.
The thing about why that's annoying is because I'm the
kind of mate that rings the boys all the time
once a week. I'm a good mate, keeping contact wishes

(12:15):
one relentlessly. If you had a bullet, if you had
a gun to your head and they said ring a mate,
and if they don't pick up you survive, you'd ring
wishy because he never picks up his phone ever, Rather
wishy washy. And then I said to him, you know,
I said, Wishy, it shouldn't take for a car accident
for you to pick up your fucking phone.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
But you know what, being on the phone is exhausting.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
But is this enough for Cooper's accidental monologue? Yeah, his
little monologue. This has turned into for the first twelve
minutes of the podcast.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
It's on the other Joe shot.

Speaker 4 (12:49):
Guys, if you don't think that this deserves air time,
it's awareness.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
We can cut it out if.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
You were seeding or anything.

Speaker 5 (12:58):
Because I asked you that, I said, were you speaking,
and you know you said, I was slowing down.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
We're going towards him.

Speaker 4 (13:03):
But it was kind of a freak accident, that's what
the copper said. He was like, you've hit You've just
hit each other.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Perfect.

Speaker 4 (13:08):
It's a perfect scenario because you've turned out alright. He
was fine. That guy drove off. Yeah, the taxi driver.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
A little strape on the bumper, that's about it. Yeah,
he was.

Speaker 4 (13:16):
He just went and picked up another passenger.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Andy, on a completely different note, talking about Wishy before,
did you see him during the game. It's a reward
for his hard work. There was a loose ball on
the ground. It actually went through his legs. He bent down,
he foot his head through his legs and got the balls.
It actually happened. Yeah, it went down. He had his
head literally through his knees. For completely different purpose. It

(13:38):
served us purpose.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
Correct correct, Yeah, mobility seriously, Well, we started making that
reference with a contortionist who wanted to get his bottom
ribs removed. That was that was twenty twenty one.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Is it that long ago?

Speaker 4 (13:52):
And this is a great lesson for kids. Four years
later he pulls that out on the biggest stage. What
is It's the one person and relentlessly training that every
single day for four years now.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
He's obviously always practiceing flexibility.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
It's an asset.

Speaker 4 (14:07):
Always if you work hard, you lucky, you'll get there.

Speaker 3 (14:10):
Now, can we talk about magic ground? Can we finally
get away from Cooper's accident?

Speaker 2 (14:14):
And you know what everyone up there was asking about.

Speaker 4 (14:17):
Oh that's nice and actually really before we get missed.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
Before we get the magic round. People with a car theme.
If you're a car, which would.

Speaker 5 (14:26):
You be and why I would be very particular A
pale blue vintage Aston Martin dB three convertible.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
It's my dream car.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
I think she's misconstrued. What I think she's misconstrued what
the break is? You're a car, we're talking.

Speaker 4 (14:45):
You understand this. I picked Joshadow car.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
Yeah, that's what we're talking about. You mixed it up
with the coop.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (14:52):
We're talking about cars. Wears car Yeah, yeah yeah. Sing
it from Strain and Idol. Yeah, he was Johnny Carson.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
I think I've been stitched on.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
I thought I spilled it out for you. It's the thing.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
Actually, I actually thought it was weird.

Speaker 4 (15:13):
But it's quite triggering.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Magic Ground. Firstly, off the top of the John's Family
Podcast Alive from the Leisure Deck. It was sensational. We
knew it was going to look We knew it was
going to be a lot of fun, in particular the
second break with all the music and everything in the
audience participation. But thank you so much to all the
people that turned up. It was beyond expectations.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
They're lining up. Yeah, it was really nice. It's so
nice to meet our listeners. How nice?

Speaker 5 (15:39):
How good people are they love They're good people, They're
good folks.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
We had some favorites there. But they were, yeah, they were.
They were very good. Shame that they couldn't have a
few drinks before it started, because we obviously started at midday.
You know, you can't feeling you did. But by the
time we got to the second part they'd been well
oiled up. And yeah, it was a lot more fun.
Thank you to good and tell us to the ball.
The raging GT. Arrant he actually he filled in.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
For Cooper.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
When Cooper couldn't fly up really big shoester fill.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
There was some funny there were some strange moments. There
was some funny moments. I was looking around and spotted this.
These people pointed like there was a lovely Asian couple
there and they're standing there having a be and so
as I was walking over, someone said, oh yeah, I
thought it was their friend and said, oh yeah, they're
from China. So I got on. I had a long
conversation with them on the on the mic, talking about

(16:30):
you know, coming from China and everything. They were, yeah, yeah,
they went actually went off from China from Malaysia. So
that's a bit awkward. It was. It was awkward, particularly
in this day and age. But what people I wasn't stereotyping.
I was actually told on the way over that they
were Chinese. Put that in big bold letters.

Speaker 4 (16:48):
Matthew John's is not a racist. No, I'm not perfect.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
I hate everyone.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
Jesus.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
Well, we had a few characters there. Barry was my favorite,
so I mean dad. As we started the second part.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
I had to take over all your roles, so I
struggled with the quiz we get.

Speaker 3 (17:09):
But what we did was we had to go around
the crowd ask a few questions and I come across
this guy, Barry in a raidous jersey.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
He's a buzzy guy. He's oh my god, he was
just a live wire.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
We got him on stage. I'd not pulling him up
because he sort of won the crowd over with some
meaningful comments when we're questioning him. And as he got up,
he gave Trishy's big old kiss. And I'll tell you what, cobble,
I could see a bit of jealousy in the Copper's eyes.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Search and destroying only come out the right and the
left fist. I said, you just watch yourself, broh. Yeah,
oh yeah, there as well.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
It was all tiking about He's had like all these
little one liners. But like about ten minutes into the quiz,
Dad did a question where it was don't change. Come on.
It was like, and I guess the song, and Barry
just grabbed whispers in my ear and goes, oh my god,
I've got an incredible story about this song. I went, oh, well,
when he comes over, tell it so get sweet.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
He goes.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
Dad comes over. He goes, Maddie, it's don't change. I've
actually got a hell of a story about this song.
As he goes into.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
This story, it starts off like about.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
Matchbox twenty and we're going, oh, it must get to
in excess somehow. Never got there, never got there, and
then started referring to Matchbox twenty one, which was Mashbox twenty,
which was a tattoo out in his forearm about Rob Thomas.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
It was that meeting Rob Thomas. He met Rob Thomas
after a gig, and yeah, he's calling it a Matchbox
twenty one, And I thought, has he got this wrong?
And Matchbox twenty and he went oh, okay and looked
at his arm and he had a tattoo with Rob
Thomas's face and Matchbox twenty one underneath it.

Speaker 4 (18:44):
Geez, that's that's like that movie where the miller's have
you seen that when he's got no regrets on he's
written across his neck, but he wrote no ragret ag at.

Speaker 1 (18:53):
Remember the Remember the na Player. I'm not going to
say it is quite embarrassing, but he was young at
Penrith and he decided to get a tattoo right across
like a necklace, like underneath his chin, right across like
a horseshoe, and it was addicted to excellence and he's
spelt excellence wrong. Oh god, yuck.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
Actually, if you've got any regretful tattoos where there's been
some errors.

Speaker 4 (19:14):
Please let us know, yes, send him in. I saw
this one actually on the internet the other day. It
was a guy who he had his missus. It was
like Karen, and he had Karen rid on his rib
and then they obviously broke up, so then he he
turned it into like something clever, like something else. Anyway,
they obviously got back together, and then underneath that he's
got Karen again, so it's like, now you know what

(19:35):
he was. He tattooed like a rolling paint can across it,
so it looked kind of cool, but like you could
tell he rubbed something out on it and then got
Karen again. Then they've broken up again. So now he's
just got these two like paint rollers that have blacked
out his name.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
Yeah. Ben Affleck did the same thing with Jayla. Yeah,
he's got Jayla buked out out, plucked out.

Speaker 4 (20:03):
Of course he's making it up, just a joke, my
magic round stuff.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Oh maybe I saw Owen Wilson a magic ground. Yes,
I went to the Carlisle to catch up with found
on the Thursday night and this guy walked in and
I went for a scene. I went under a cowboy hat.
I went, I think I know that fell. I look
closer and only one man's good a nose like that,
and it was Owen Wilson Tating and Wilson.

Speaker 4 (20:27):
Brent Tates got one as well.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Possibly under that. He wasn't so much. He was sort
of he was he was pretty good. He was a
lot of people weren't going utching because I didn't notice him.
But no, he certainly wasn't hiding out and he didn't
have a lot of security or anything around him.

Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yeah, I've seen a video of him walking on Captain Street.
Like a lot of videos sort of emerged of him
that weekend, just walking on the streets and that people
filming him.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
Yeah, he's ever filming a movie called Runner Runner, which
is going to be It's going to be out, which
I thought was a nice touch seeing Owen Wilson there.
Owen Wilson love Magic Ground? Did he love it anything?

Speaker 4 (20:57):
Do you go and say, hey, I'm like the Australian
Owen Wilson, Now.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
I just star. I just winked at him, said Owen
Cunningham Wilson. He didn't hear it there? Yeah, I thought.
You know him and his brothers. Him and his brother
are both got the same middle name, Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson,
the middle name Cunningham.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Why is that their mother's surname real Estate?

Speaker 4 (21:17):
I'm pretty sure Cunningham or Happy Days? Yeah, yeah, sure,
what's that reference? I will say, yeah, I assumed. But
when you guys were at Magic around, I had a
mad Time City on the couch on my own. But
I did go up to vote on Saturday up the
road at our local. Anyway, I've gone up there and
I get on the blower. But actually I actually I
was on the blower to one of the boys while

(21:38):
I'm walking through because I get real anxious about walking
through in the hand you all the paper in that
just awkward and don't worry.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
Do you mean all the people as you're walking in, they're.

Speaker 4 (21:45):
Like trying to like to take They're like, vote for Greens,
vote for this the Greens.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
And Greens give you a paper and yeah, guys, you're
feeding the purpose.

Speaker 4 (21:51):
And then so I'm taking them all anyway immediately like
throw them in the bin in front of him. And
then I walk in. I'm voting. He says name. I
say Cooper and he he goes, no, you're not. It's
John So. And I was like, what do you mean?
He said, oh, you say your last night your first name,
because your Maddie son. I went, oh, yeah, I am. Anyway,
I'm talking to this guy, he's dribbling and then I
watch as he marks your name off as opposed to mine. Yes,

(22:13):
so they've ticked you off as you're voted, and I'm
like trying to explain and he goes, no, it's all good,
and I'm like, oh whatever, and I just go and vote.
Do it in. I guarantee your fine. It's going to
come to the mail for me.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
Now you're writing a letter you've got an excuse because
I mean you were you were hold up all weekend recovery.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
That is true. I have a medical stiving everything.

Speaker 1 (22:32):
So now chack out. We run into a few people,
but they're running to Johnny Sutton. Didn't he given a
few of these Maruver mates.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
Yeah, they're up there. They rush on my flight back.
Those Murvera boys. They look like they had a big
trip and they look like they're a bit worse for wear,
the rub of boys or would expect nothing less? Yes, yes,
but they had a really good time. Mate. We ran
to everyone. Geez, I'm trying to go through the list
right now. Uncle Joey, Uncle Joey one night and he's
made tangles.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
Andrew Tanger to Tower, Yeah, tangles and Brad Fidlers with
Uncle Joey. That that crew, and then we were in
the Terry Lamb were there and some of the Bulldogs. Yeah,
it was fantastic, mate. When I was doing commentary in
the box, Dan Ganne always has the window open. I'd
get the atmosphere and I'm looking down and I see
Steve Jackson down there. Steve Jackson scored probably the most
famous Grand Final trial onside Albi in extra time for

(23:23):
Canberra in the eighty nine Grand Final and I went,
oh this, I forgot what I was doing, and I went, oh,
Steve Jackson down there, Oh Dan, I think he scored.
That might have been his day Booth scoring that winning try,
and he goes really, I went, hang on a second,
I'll ask him and I went, ah, jacko, jacko, mate,
was that your deboo game? And I expected him to
go thumbs up or thumbs down? And he turned around,

(23:45):
this is while the comments you're still going and walked
up to the box, walked up to the front of
the box and I went mad. He no, it wasn't. Coincidentally,
it was getting balmin in the middle of the year
and I actually hurt my name, did mymodial and I
was out for nine weeks. And then we're sitting there
talking for about thirty seconds. Well you didn't comic, Well, dang,
it ain't. And Mick Ennis is just looking at me,
going when is this going to end? Anyway? I spoke

(24:05):
to the director afterwards, I hope you didn't mind. They
went Now we just said because who's mad he talking
to He said, don't worry about just let it go.
Oh yeah, today, it's a magic ground.

Speaker 4 (24:13):
Well this is what you because you sounded like you'd
had a few beers over the weekend in the commentary
on Sunday, like you had a bit of a frog
in your throw, didn't you.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
Yeah, well, I mean it's magic ground whenever you throw
your bags in your hotel room. Every time I get
there and I say to trash this weekend. I'm not
going to do a number on myself, but every Sunday,
and I think nearly everyone who's up there. Everyone Thursday,
Friday people are just full of boons.

Speaker 4 (24:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
Saturday everyone's sort of just coming off the bit a
little bit.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
Jeez.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Sunday people are fatigued. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Yeah, on a Saturday. We're at lunch too. We actually
have a little win, which we'll get to in a minute.
But you ran into maxi Plath. Remember maxi Plath was
sitting there.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
I forgot about that.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
Yeah. Max Plath is a.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
Middle for the young play against his dad Johnny.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
Yeah, and he was a great fellow too. I've never
met him before, really nice guy. But you started telling
him stories about his old man. I think you might
have been a little bit rattled by how ruthless old
man might have been.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
His old man was. His old man was an incredible sledger.
His old man was a little bit like him. He's
not built the same, He's a bit bit leaner than Max.
But his dad was a bit of an everywhere like.
He could play. He was like Kurt Man. That's what
I like him. As a footballer. He was a real utility,
could play here, there and everywhere. But man, he had
a he had an acid mouth.

Speaker 4 (25:35):
He was.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
He was a very very good sledger. And I was
telling Max about it, and I thought Max had laugh
But Max seemed a little bit horrified that his dad
could say such a nasty things.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
In your time playing, that was the best sledger.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
The worst.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
Okay, I would go most offensive if you like. Gold
medal goes to matthew Ridge. Oh yeah, matthew Ridge was made.
He was a horrific sledger. Silver medal goes to Ricky Stewart.
Ricky is a very good sledge my mate Ricky. And
the third one probably is Philly called Paul la Max
Lame Mack used to just commentate the game during the

(26:12):
match as he's playing. Oh yeah, yeah, it's going to
watch to Joey forward, sir, the ball was forward. He
would never shut up the referee, sometimes go on to
a scrum, say Langers, Langers, mate, you're killing me. Just
put a cork in it.

Speaker 4 (26:28):
There's not many good sledges anymore. I played with one
Will Chambers and he would do background checks to get
private information. And then he would sometimes we're playing reserve grade.
He would find. He'd go through that, say me and
Harry and Nico were playing against towns with Blackhawks. He
would go through the team list on the Tuesday, find

(26:49):
like a kid who's never even played first grade. He
just plays Queensland Cup up in Townsville. He works full time.
He would find out dirt on their family and he
would give it to us. Heard that and he'd say,
I'll get into him about this. I went on his
sister's Facebook and I was like, Chamber, this is too much.
I said, this is too much. I'm not going up
to towns and he was like, do it.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
I tell when I used too A bit of a
dossier on players. We learned that off the War Brothers crickets,
Mark and Steve Board. They when they were sort of
the senior players, and Steve was the captain of the
Australian cricket side. He's the dossier on players. So if
a guy walked to the crease, he's sat Glen McGrath.
Don't sledge this bloke. Don't sledge him. If you sledge him,
he'll just dig in and you play better other players.
He just make it into you start sledging.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
Best one I've seen that I've played with was Tyson Gamble.
For sure, I'd believe that Cody had a bit in
him at the house, but Tyson. Like the thing that
with Tyson was shocked the hell out of us. Was
he came down from Brisbane and he'd be known as
a as a sledger, and everyone thought it like prepared
themselves for a bit of a wrap back but when
a grub well it's your opinion, but he's honestly one

(27:53):
of the nicest blokes you could ever meet. And we
all thought, oh, maybe he's just maybe it was just
the team up there, brisy And then he come down
and had a whole pre season. Didn't hear like a
peep out of him? That was like anything nasty. Round
two because we were both eighteen nineteenth man against the Warriors.
Round one. We both come in round two against the
Tigers twenty twenty three, he comes on for klen remem

(28:13):
mckaalen got knocked out. Ye puts this bomb up his
first touch of the ball. And the things he yelled
at David Nofaluma, I can never say the nopice your man.

Speaker 4 (28:26):
No office mate. The office is one of the best
places of all time. He never has a down day.
He's open three hundred and sixty five days.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Ye have a few down down days with the Tigers.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
Should seem even on a leap here. He's the only
one of the works he dos hundred and sixty six.
Oh Jesus, a good man in the office. Over he's
over playing. So I think he might be over in
Malta somewhere like that playing. He's playing somewhere. What he's
playing somewhere obscure. And I've seen he was playing fullback,
which is bad for the Enoughice because Office hasn't passed
his twenty twelve.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
Well, if he's playing in Malta, something tells me he
won't have to pass.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
Yeah, yeah, Oh. I saw he posted something Instagram the
other day and you like literally walked seven blokes over
the tryline.

Speaker 1 (29:03):
There's some strange places where they play Rabbul league. Serbia
has got a like a growing and strong quite a
strong competence.

Speaker 4 (29:10):
Might be Serbia, It might be it is.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
We'll tell you why while we're waiting, while Cooper's searching
it where the office is. I actually had to take
over a lot of Cooper's roles on Saturday for him,
and one of those roles might have been across with Sunrise.
Got there and someone was doing a cross with me beforehand.
Trevor Gilmeister, never met him before. What a lovely bloke.
He was so nice. I was chatting to him and
I've never met him before and he was just such

(29:34):
a lovely bloke. I didn't Yeah, I didn't know too much.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
Yeah, because wait for this people when we started did
we started the podcast up there by saying, if you're
a Coeenslander, I kind of Queensland, which would you be anyway?
Trish goes, I've got one, I've got you know, and
she's sleep She's got Trevor Gilmeister. So the crowd she's
waiting because the crowd's all sitting there and.

Speaker 3 (29:58):
They got a photo for him to pop up.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
I went Julian massage. Jacko'd you go? I had Billy
Slater Gordon went to Greg Inglis and Trisha's last and
she's just going proud, so proud, and she goes mine
is Trevor Gillespie. But you could hear the crowd go.

Speaker 4 (30:20):
Sorry to find to circle back to Nafer. No idea,
no idea where he is. But the jersey looks like
he's either in Serbia or Malta.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
Is it red and white?

Speaker 4 (30:29):
It is like it was like green red and one.
It was almost like Italian.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
The Serbian one is white red with a bit of gold.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
Red star Belgrade. Yes, yes, yes. A couple of things
before we get to our big bet. One thing that
I remember this morning because things that.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
Sounds great, our big bet, our big bet.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
Yes, because things when you look back at magic, things
are just sort of come to you as you in
drips and draps, like I can't remember really mac Plath
until your set there, oh yea, because there's always something
that's going on. I remember this this morning. We're in
a pub and I got Steph curried by bloke. And
what with Steph curried is when someone talks and a

(31:13):
piece of spit comes out of their mouth, goes in
the air and lands in your mouth like a three
point shot. So the blokes standing there and he's blind,
and he's talking to me, and he's showing his phone, going, mate,
guess look, I guess who I ran into look at this,
And as he leaned over to me and started to talk,
a piece of spit just went out of his mouth
and I washed it and I went straight into mine.

(31:35):
But we just looked at each other. It was just
like an awkward length. I don't know. I didn't I
didn't wait to ask.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
That is so relentless.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
Yes, that's disgusting, now, Jack, Yes, let's talk about a
certain Fletcher Sharp, one of my new favorite players. I think, well,
he's definitely well, actually it's just about my favorite player
that's not going to Yes, that's not going it.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
So mighty be the radous thing that comes out of
cesnot Oh, come on.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
Let's get the get the bronze middal Yeah, Billy, yes,
he was, well, actually you're right, Just go and order
John's of the m variety A the John's Variety, and
Billy putin yeah, of course. And then Fletcher maybe he's
coming up, he's coming up. Like a prey train. Yeah.
He I was asked for a bet on se n right,

(32:24):
the last segment we do we go think called long
it's gonna be ten dollars or more in the ad
break and going right, what are we gonna do? I
went right, Knights got a feeling like South's have got
a lot out in between. When I did the bet
and and placed the bet, South lost another two players
and so at the time it was almost split Knights

(32:45):
in South sort of bit not is that, but Knights
We're about probably a dollar seventy four. So I went right,
what am I going to do here? Okay, I think
the Knights are going to win, and I think they'll win, well,
it's chances that it's going to be a dry track
at three o'clock in the afternoon. Who's the bloker? Just
pop up and score tries? And I went, well, Fletcher Sharp,
even though they haven't been playing well, he's just got
that spark about him.

Speaker 2 (33:06):
A quick question, what position does he play?

Speaker 1 (33:08):
He plays? I play six, but he plays more like
a one anyway, someone watching and I've been watching him,
thinking right, So I went Nights to win. Fletcher Sharp
two tries or more? Put the bed on twenty three
to one. Then I thought to myself, if he gets two,
who knows, he might just get three. So I went,

(33:30):
let's see what the odds are and I went Fletcher
Sharp three tries or more nights to win, and it
came up two hundred to one, and then I boosted
it and went to two hundred and thirty eight dollars
to one, and I just thought, this is this is
just too good to miss. Who was ever placed?

Speaker 4 (33:48):
Who on earth has ever thought, well, if he's going
to score two, he may as well score three. I've
never that is such a gamblers mindset.

Speaker 5 (33:57):
After he scored two, he was being offered and opt
out cash out.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
Yeahs Should I take it? Should I take it? I
went no?

Speaker 4 (34:07):
I said, apparently Jack talked to him.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
You did and Jack had a real impact.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Oh yeah, yeah, well impact sounds good. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
There was an option there for five hundred a decent
cash out. No, it was nearly a thousand at one point. Yeah,
hit a thousand, and I said I'm going to get out.
We said let it ride, Let it ride.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
And halfway through the second half, I look over and
the smile on his face.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yeah, because how it started we're having lunch and just
sort of forget the games on. You can magic ground.
You've got to pick and choose your games. You can't
get every game sit watch. So I went, oh, Jack,
the games on, let's have a look. Picked it up.
Thirty minutes have been gone flitchershop. It's called two tries
in the first eight minutes, and we went, oh wow. However,
when it went into the second half, as the second
half started to wear on, my cash out they're offering

(34:54):
just started dwindling, and I almost lost my nerve. I
almost hit it, and Jack was like, don't do it.

Speaker 4 (34:59):
You just you would not have if you had cashed
out and I had won, you wouldn't have lived with yourself.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
Something that gives you so much satisfaction is when you
tip it and other people get on. Because Jack got
on gave me satisfaction. Fletch had a go and Fletcher's
mate had one hundred bucks on it.

Speaker 4 (35:15):
Yeah, and it's very well documented, very well documented. They
had Fletch one about eight grand. It was all over
the Daily Mail and Telegraph. Yeah, buzz I think reported
on it, like Fletcher Green tipped Fletcher Sharp.

Speaker 3 (35:29):
Well, I went on, I went on Sunrise that morning
to doing that cross and I said, I said, oh.
They said, oh, who do you think today, South Sydney
or the Nights? I said, I think the Knights break
their streak. And I got a real feeling about Fletcher
Sharp today. I said it on air. Jem's got it recorded.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
Now you're going on the You're going on the morning
show soon, mate. Get them to dig it up, Get
them to dig it up. So you've been.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
Told for show Copper Sunrise.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
Still the same network.

Speaker 4 (35:54):
Hey, do you want me to do that?

Speaker 1 (35:56):
I should do?

Speaker 4 (35:56):
All of a sudden, the cross goes from me attention
on to Jack.

Speaker 2 (35:59):
You know I won't do that.

Speaker 4 (36:00):
I'll do it. I'll message her today and I'll say, hey,
my brother apparently tipped it in. Dig up that footage
for me.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
Anyone else's magic ground. I wasn't there.

Speaker 5 (36:10):
I just want to say I loved meeting our people,
like literally face to face, having chats.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
It just reconfirms everything I think.

Speaker 5 (36:22):
Yeah, the boys from Granala, the Shire, there are beautiful
young blakes, actually terrific. Heaps of people from Melbourne at
Townsville and Cannes, Monica, Sally Janelle.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
People from Hole, Laura whole.

Speaker 5 (36:35):
Yeah, there were people from everywhere and that's what I
love about Magic Ground and Brisbane. And that's why they
have to keep it in Brisbane. If they want to
do another Magic Ground another weekend somewhere else.

Speaker 3 (36:49):
Do it, they have to.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
Yeah, they have to let Brisbane have that.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
It's such a good vibe. They could do it some
stage after Origin possibly yeah, yeah, but it's such a
good spot. Like a lot of the people they came
to our show too, We'll chatting to come from like
central Queensland. Like we're talking like twelve hour drives, crazy stuff.

Speaker 4 (37:06):
I would love I'd love not to be called Magic Round,
but come up with another one that they take it
down south to Melbourne. Oh, I'd love to see them
because the Melbourne is they do love the ones that
go to the Rugby League. They're so loyal and they
love it.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
They've just got to see where They've got to be careful.
Is the Vegas is the big trip, right they're talking
about taking Magic Ground possibly overseas. Now I would be
I'd be happy with Auckland. I think Auckland got very
good having it at Eden Park. But they're talking Hong
Kong and that you're going, no, no, don't. We've got Vegas,
the bread and butter Rugby league fan who goes to
Magic Round. You don't want them ask them twice Vegas

(37:44):
and then Hong Kong. No, no, no, no, Let's keep
keep it simple. Let's do it at Brisbane. Brisbane deserve
to hold onto it. It's magic.

Speaker 3 (37:52):
But if they're doing something like that, and they're looking
at doing like a tournament vibe like they do the
Auckland Nins, it's been it's been proven. The New Zealand
crowds turn up, so, you know, similar to Brisbane, but
the exactly the kiwis love it. It will work over there.
But whether it will work as good as Brisbane, I
don't think.

Speaker 4 (38:09):
Huis travel everywhere. They traveled to Vegas this year. They
apparently they were in spades at Magic Round this year
they won Magic Ground. Let me tell you something right now,
I'm going to have an early crow. The sorry my knees.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
Cross, I don't know I've been accident.

Speaker 4 (38:25):
So I'm going to have an early crow. That's what
I said. Now cry the Warriors fans this year will
be the best fans of all time this year. It's
not really an early crow is that it's just more
of a statement. I think. I think they're the best
fans in the NFL. I'm going to say go ahead
and say that right now. Really there are some great

(38:47):
there are some awesome clubs with some loyal fans and
they got a big fan base. But I don't think
any fans in the NRL get around a team, team
morale and energy at a game like the Wise fans.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
Yeah, they finally engaged the whole country, all of New Zealand.

Speaker 5 (39:01):
Can I make a point though, those visitors, the Warriors
supporters that were in Brisbane, do you think a lot
of them came from New Zealand or do you think
there are a lot of them that are actually from
Brisbane and from the Gold Coast because Gold Coast always
has passive numbers of Warrior supported because there's a lot
of New Zealanders there.

Speaker 1 (39:21):
I think split Trician because I ran into miles agoy
mile of people from Auckland and South Island. OK, so
they do a lot of travel like every like at
Vegas there was a lot. Yeah, there was the White fans,
Wales fans were everywhere. It's a great effort to because
those the flights.

Speaker 3 (39:38):
They get boosted up during that period, were going to
get a lot of people going to.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Bridge, much like Dad's Maulti. They get price posted.

Speaker 4 (39:43):
What about the airlines at the moment Sydney to Melbourne
and Melbourne to Sydney, Are you kidding? It's the most
expensive flight in Australia.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
It's graceful and they keep apologizing about it, and they
keep going, oh yeah, we're sorry about that. Will be better,
they said twelve months ago. They haven't changed a bit.

Speaker 5 (39:57):
They haven't had a couple of different sales, and when
one usually has a sale, the other major airline.

Speaker 2 (40:02):
Will usually have a sale.

Speaker 5 (40:03):
But I don't know that Melbourne has been involved as
much as the northern cities.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Are you kidding? I won't drink to that.

Speaker 4 (40:09):
That's this is the one thing on earth I won't
drink too. I will not drink to that on a
school night, absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (40:16):
Before sorry, don't you.

Speaker 4 (40:18):
I was going to say, can we do coops quiz yet?

Speaker 1 (40:20):
We can? Before we do that, can I just give something?
I went rabbit hole in the other night. This could
be just a little bit of interest to people young
and old. So I got on. It came up nine
to eighty five Australian schoolboys rugby union side Ricky Stewart captain.
So I went, okay, I'll have a look at this. Anyway,
they're showing it was your conquering Australian school boys union
side that went over into the British Isles and came

(40:41):
back totally underfoited. There was a lot of fanfare about
it at the player who got the meant that the
player of the tour did a special on him, right,
and they're showing him. They're going, this guy so and
so Warwick Giddy from Woollongong blah blah is a special
athlete Australian school boys in rugby league, rugby union and basketball.
And he got me on the tour and they talk

(41:03):
and he's going, oh yeah, blah blah blah blah. And
they said after leaving school he's expected now to sign
with the Ilauorra Steelers. And I went, oh yeah, and
typed in worried Giddy find out what he did afterwards?
His son's Josh Giddy. No way, which son is Josh Giddy?
So obviously after that, I don't think he signed with
the Ilori Steelers. He must have chose to go into basketball,

(41:25):
and then apparently his dad played him what he played
in one of the big Melbourne sides. Yeah, of course.

Speaker 4 (41:32):
That's where he played. He turned up earlier in the
week and played at a local game in Frankston. His
mate's team just rocked up, played a grade giddy up.

Speaker 3 (41:40):
Are you serious?

Speaker 4 (41:41):
Yeah, I know that is. I'll drink to that.

Speaker 1 (41:43):
I'll drink that. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (41:44):
Yeah, giddy showed up and they got beat. The team
he played in. His MAT's team got beat by another
local gate.

Speaker 1 (41:50):
I'll drink to that.

Speaker 3 (41:52):
They keep now before we finished with your quiz, Sorry, listeners,
could I quick go through a quick blind for you,
one that I've put together?

Speaker 1 (42:02):
Okay, it'll be fast, all right.

Speaker 3 (42:04):
First one I've gone with today casino games. After we
all we're hanging out at the start the other day
it was unreal. All right, here we go. First game, poker, poker.

Speaker 4 (42:17):
I like poker as a game, but as a casino game.
I rarely played in a casino.

Speaker 1 (42:21):
I'll play four. I'll say four, obviously thinking three something
happened before four.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
Yeah, I'll go four, all right.

Speaker 3 (42:27):
Next one I've gone with Roulettet is good.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
Yeah, I'll go two.

Speaker 4 (42:34):
I was thinking too, but I'm also thinking, what's what.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
I'm going to I'm going to go through. It's just
for you though, you.

Speaker 2 (42:40):
Just only learn if you knew how to play it.

Speaker 4 (42:43):
You learned how to play it four months ago.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
I learned how to because of black Jack's in there.
I think black Jack's won.

Speaker 4 (42:48):
I think black Jack beat.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
I think in terms of iconic and these The other one,
which is so at the moment we've got four poker,
I think Roulette three.

Speaker 4 (43:00):
I'd say two. Me and Shandor had our system with
at that time.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
Will you know, yeah, will you end up losing?

Speaker 1 (43:05):
That's the other big win. I didn't tell you about
lots of money. Actually yeah, I had the hot hand
when I arrived. We arrived there, I went, had a
little hit on the Hokey Pokey's one two hundred, and
then when over did Nytrish and started playing Roulette. Looked
at the rule when they say what comes up all
the numbers? Yeah, Jack it went nine, followed by nine,

(43:25):
twenty four, followed by twenty four, and then as I'm
standing there, come up number fourteen. I thought, well, it's
going with the system. I'll just go number fourteen again.
So had ten bucks on number fourteen came up. Yeah,
thirty five.

Speaker 4 (43:39):
A tip for people who play roulette the amount of
times and it becomes it matters on the person who's
putting the ball in the roulette wheel. It's very consistent
with the area. It can drop in sometimescha, So if
you have a special number around that general area, if
they've and you can always sort of watch a roulette
Deloh's got a real consistent sort of push on the ball.
They generally fall around this. Don't quote me on that.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
That is professional shandle. Is that a shandor thing?

Speaker 4 (44:05):
No, No, that's just a general observation. When I played
roulette for like a.

Speaker 3 (44:08):
Long time, No one takes advice Number two, number next one,
Keino five?

Speaker 4 (44:19):
Are you kidding?

Speaker 1 (44:20):
I love kes got to be five?

Speaker 4 (44:23):
Awesome.

Speaker 2 (44:23):
Well it's better than Pokey's so.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
You can have it on three? Yeah, well it might be.
I think it's got to be five. Kina, Will you
vote Trish three or five?

Speaker 2 (44:35):
Depends what else is in there. He's not going to
put craps in, Okay, I'll go three.

Speaker 3 (44:40):
Okay, I love next one.

Speaker 4 (44:42):
Craps number one for me, I think five.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
I'm not a fan of crap on five.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
Again because you boys don't know how to play.

Speaker 4 (44:48):
It exactly, so I don't like, what are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (44:51):
Sorry, you win money on.

Speaker 1 (44:53):
Its number one.

Speaker 3 (44:56):
I love one black jack, of course, like jack.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
That's that's the stable, that's the bread and butter.

Speaker 2 (45:01):
You know what, I've really won the casino.

Speaker 1 (45:05):
The best game of one casino was the one casino war.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
Yeah, and you rarely find a table of it.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
There was a casino war at the Star in Brisbane.
However they didn't it wasn't operating, but that's yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:17):
They only opened it for sure.

Speaker 3 (45:18):
Even when we're in Vegas. The only one you could
find was when you're at the bottom level at the Cosmopolitan.
Everywhere else, I didn't see it anywhere else.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
The only game in our way fifty forty five percent
of the house.

Speaker 4 (45:31):
Yeah, thanks Albert. I was thiying. I remember when we're
up at Chelly Beach Golf Club Jack and then I
was just relentlessly playing Keno and the girls behind the
bar were going, you need to stop, to stop.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
Never, I just said, keep pun.

Speaker 4 (45:45):
You need to stop because I think I was gambling
too much. Oh she was like, oh, are you sure
you want to kick going well. I was doing some
I think I wasn't gambling too much, but I think
for what they were used to and Keino, like people
don't usually put as I think as big a beat
as I was putting on in on some pretty heavy bet.
I was pretty well hydrated, but I had I don't

(46:06):
know why. I just thought it would be funny to like,
in my head, I was like, how funny would it
be to just put like really large bets on a
game like Keino and then have all the boys whip
at home? Remember we were all sitting there every time.

Speaker 1 (46:18):
I got his shirt, every time did you whip at home?

Speaker 4 (46:20):
I was always packing heads, no odds or whatever it
is to win, and we're like, yes, whenever it come on.
Then oh, whenever it lest I didn't win one.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
What's the biggest bet. What's the biggest win you've had
on Quina?

Speaker 3 (46:30):
Oh? Geez, I don't know. I can't remember the last
time I actually ever bet on.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
I had a sorry now, my two lucky numbers on
Keino were six and sixty nine and once that's twelve
to one for the two and once I again hydrated.
This is a common seme. I had fifty bucks on
it and it actually got up. Well, yeah, that's it's
a pretty good one.

Speaker 4 (46:52):
Well done.

Speaker 3 (46:52):
Let's go away from gambling for a bit, John, just quickly.

Speaker 2 (53:05):
I like the shorts. Like the trailer.

Speaker 1 (53:08):
I don't know. I don't so much. It looks too
much action the first one.

Speaker 3 (53:13):
If you're doing a trailer for a movie, though, but
you're going to probably put action in it.

Speaker 4 (53:17):
No, but I like the first one because it was
half action and I took halfway to get into the
action stuff. True, the start was very.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
Like the story building storyline.

Speaker 4 (53:26):
I mean, it'd be very hard to have a follow
up of that because, like, there were so many cool
twists and stuff in the first one.

Speaker 1 (53:32):
I want to see it. After watching the trailer.

Speaker 5 (53:34):
It sort of brother plays a bigger role in this one.
I'm curious to see that dynamic.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
His brother's also the punisher. That guy they go that
played John Bertha all is quite good.
