Episode Transcript

(00:10):
We're back, baby. And the Cowboys one too.
Welcome on the ranch. On the Ranch, brought to you by

(00:31):
Molly Malones. It is a Tuesday night.
It is episode 205. That's right, we're back to
Tuesday. No, it's actually last week.
Technically it was a Tuesday night as well, but it wasn't
pistol and Rob. It was the Morgan show.
He he did the ol. I am the captain now and ass all

(00:53):
of us. Anyway, we're back.
I'm excited about you can find me on Twitter.
I'm not even Twitter anymore. That's how much I use it.
Mostly Instagram actually. Pete the Bogan sommelier.
I'm here. Since you like box wine so much
lately. Yeah, and look, I I like just
wines in general, but box wines,not too bad.

(01:15):
You can sit on the countertop for six weeks.
You just have a little cup here and there.
Six weeks. Yeah, Yeah.
Mine doesn't work that long, no.Neither does it doesn't.
Last. But it it it can.
Last, it can long, it does keep,and then you've got a pillow at
the end. You do it's it's not bad.
I mean, been having a few wines lately and I kept the news in a
few rounds. All good for you.

(01:36):
Occasional in port. Morgan Holmes Evans very deeply
invested into some Uber Eats. Right.
I just realized it's coming fromNorth Shore.
I don't know why it's North Shore.
If it's no good, it's because ofan extended travel time.
It's a. Long time for some fish.
But we're back. Thanks for having us.
Well done last week, Morgan, that was.
That was impressive. Thank you.

(01:58):
It was a bit tough taking the reins but I I reckon me and
Billy, I reckon we we pushed through and I reckon we did a
pretty outstanding job if you ask me.
We did an outstanding. I was pretty happy.
Absolutely. Speaking of, Billy's down the
end of the table, keeping an eyeon us, making sure we are pretty
I'm. Doing my best, yeah.
I was so much good polisher turdon the ranch.
thankyou.myshopfire.com. Get yourself one of these funky

(02:19):
hats. Look at it beautiful.
I'll just twist it to a side andpannikins.
We don't have any in here. I I did put a rum in mine for
the game on the weekend and lookwhat happened.
We won. Yeah, I was drinking box wine
out of mine. They're versatile, is what we'll
say. I had a tea in mine the other
week. Yeah.
Handle. Got a brave handle.

(02:39):
A bit hot. Yeah, they're for warm
beverages. They're a little.
Yeah, I think your lip would geta bit burny as well on the edge
of that. Wasn't too bad.
Yeah, OK. Yeah.
But better with a cold drink with some ice.
I feel that kind of made for hotbeverages around a campfire.
You would think so. Yeah, it just makes all the
sense in the world. I've had coffee out of them
before with them. Yeah, it's, it's like in the

(03:00):
morning coffee or outside a campfire.
Like you put your Billy on and you're having your little
coffee, you know, at your campfire.
I'll always put Billy on. Exactly.
Do you call the Billy around a campfire the wood head these
days? No, I should know, I should I
really? Should I do?
It makes a lot of. Sense you wanna fill up the
Woodhead over. There, get a Woodhead.
Yeah, that's it. Fill up your woodheadpatreon.com

(03:22):
and look for on the ranch. You can find nearly an hour's
worth of extra content. It's quality stuff.
There's a bit there. There's some quality stuff.
I we went over what the stadium used to be called.
Yeah, we talked about the Nitro Circus.
Talk about sparkies. I also I also want to bring up
what was talked about Morgan talked this big game about
fillet of fishers and how great they are and I agree with him.

(03:43):
It's the best McDonald's burger.We haven't made to know him in
quite history. If you want to find out more,
listen to the Patreon. But he he was like, oh boy, is
all every. He was talking a big game.
It was a big game. And then the delivery fee and
everything. Oh, do we really need to do
this? Oh buddy, money bag is on 300 an
hour and he doesn't want to spruke a couple of burgers for
his buds. Well then I saw how much Uber

(04:03):
charge you to deliver some burgers.
I'm like, this is outrageous. But bottom line is in.
This economy. There are four burgers on their
way. Yes, from North Shore.
On the to the studio, why didn't?
You get it from the lakes. I have no idea.
The smart thing would be lags ormate lakes or city the city
right? But if for some reason the order
went to North Shore. Yeah, it it, it's distributed by
an office overseas. Like when we got alcohol

(04:26):
delivered on the weekend it camefrom BWS in Kelso.
That makes no sense. I perfect, yeah.
Couldn't get further away. Not the worst.
Yeah, but it's just gotta go. Straight.
Away. Away there.
Where's the other closest bottle?
I'm a Stewart. Yeah, yeah, Stewart.
Makes a bit of. Sense.
Stewart makes a bit more sense. Even the BWS up at Fairfield or

(04:48):
Yeah. Actually relevant to you Pete,
Verizon sons changing the bottleshop and I may not.
It may not be open late. Oh, what?
Yeah. 'Cause what is it now?
It's it's. Midnight, yeah.
Yeah. So whatever brand it is now,
whether it's a bottle or BWS, whatever, it's changing to a
different franchise. Oh dear.
And the question I saw in everything Towns which I didn't

(05:09):
see answered was is it still gonna be open late?
Well, when we left. That's a natural Townsville
question. That is, that is the number one
question that people wanted to know well.
When I left the casino a few weeks ago after a race day, it
was only about 10:00-ish or stay.
So it's like, oh, we got to go to the rising sun.
Yeah, they're open or midnight. Yep.
We got as far as the hamlet parkfound out Friday, Saturdays, and

(05:31):
I think I definitely know Friday, Saturdays, but I could
be every day. Yeah, even or 12.
HP Yeah. Oh, there you go.
OK. HP is a it's a quality
establishment. Yeah, it should be.
More of it does not have a kitchen though.
It used to upstairs. It won.
Yeah, I. Used to have it upstairs area.
Remember I had like a season area upstairs it.
Was it was like a function? Yeah.
Area. Yeah, it's been a while since

(05:51):
I've been to HP. Bring back we should do it.
HP Trip. Just keep an eye on that Uber
Eats because this is not the easiest studio to get into.
You've got to come from the right direction.
No, it won't come in the right direction.
You'll be able to turn OK shouldwork out, but when I see the
location getting close one of uswill have to duck out and wave
them down. One of us will like, share,

(06:12):
subscribe, eat your burger, do whatever you want to do with
that belly. Thank you.
Bruno. Bruno is doing a pickup by the
way. Bruno.
Looks like he's in a a Ute I'll.Work with the Bruno that's.
Gonna be Is his last name Mars? No, that's that's Bruno.
But. That's Bruno.
Bruno, Bruno. Not the Bruno Bruno.
OK, No worries. Yeah.
He's most certainly Brazilian. 89% satisfaction, right?

(06:32):
Don't worry, it'll. BE 100.
There's 11% margin of error there.
Yeah, it's quite a big. How do you that's an?
11% risk. Yeah, I don't like it.
What? Constitutes 11% negative.
Scoring Bruno's on your way, 15 minutes.
In saying that, if you were a gold kicker in a footy team at
89%, you'd be taking that every day of the week as a supporter.
Yeah, but you're delivering food.

(06:53):
It's a very different you. Can't go too wrong you can.
You can get your place wrong it.Would be Surely lateness would
be the biggest thing with yeah? Lateness unable to find the
address would be a big one for me.
Maybe where I live people tend to go over the wrong house.
So I'll go over 1 down Yeah. And it makes no sense.
It's it's makes no sense how youcan.
You're kind of rabbit Warren, admittedly the first time when I
was trying to find your house. Yeah, you've got glasses that

(07:15):
make sense. Yeah, that's so do you.
That's true, kids. Got a point?
You've got to wear them too. It's not clear.
It's not. Clear.
Yeah, Yeah. All right.
OK, fair enough. All right, Postman, this week we
have a couple couple of commentson some previous episodes that I
missed because it was actually directly on Spotify, which it
took me a while to realize that they appear and it doesn't

(07:36):
notify me. So Easyvale has commented on a
couple of episodes, one of them Hay Fever, he said.
I'm a massive chaos fan but our performance against the Dolphins
was past dreadful. We seem like an arrogant team
with negative steel to our defence lay but has been nothing
but a liability since he's come back into the team.
Even with the Origin boys there we seem to lack leadership.

(07:56):
Extremely hard to a hard team tosupport at the moment.
Now this is about two or three weeks ago.
Well that was against the Dolphins so there we go.
And then I think it was the weekafter the episode entitled to
all beef patties. Relevant.
So this one's going to be double.
For that for. Look, you have to listen.
You have to listen to the episode.

(08:17):
I do listen to the every week I listen.
OK, I can get look, I can't. Get help on how to get.
Better sometimes I doubt you would listen to the episode even
every. Week.
No, we were anyway, he said. Gee, we lack a leader in our
team. No on no one talking behind the
try line. Clearly he's not watching
Drinky. Yeah, even with the people
missing back there is barely anything.
Drink. He dictates everything from
challenges to how we play. His play style sums us up as a

(08:40):
team pigeon. Shit.
Wow wow wow. Hate the tough stuff.
Is he? Be Here's what you really.
Think be happy to see him lose the full back spot, push Perdue
to full back and get a real halfback in.
The team can barely kick 50 meters.
That's brutal. Immediately.
I think that was after we got tailed.
By the chooks was that one the? Chook, that must have been the
chooks that which was after the Dolphins, so tough loss.

(09:03):
Oh, look, I understand it was it's hard to talk when the teams
going poorly. Yeah, as you know, Morgan from
last week. Yeah, it makes it difficult when
there's not too many. Good, positive things to talk
about and you you try not to just RIP on the team and be
negative of a whole podcast. So it does make it a little bit
trickier. Although it's easy to do to RIP
on that. It can be lately, it can be

(09:25):
sometimes. I agree.
We've got a couple of speak pipes.
Oh, oh, here we go. Now this one I've not vetted, so
this one's going straight line be.
Worried about something? This could be anything actually.
Where some of these are coming? From Sean was good last week.
We're gonna have to listen in onthese.
You're gonna have to listen in. Yeah, Just be careful.
Don't mess it up. Don't mess up the recording.
Alright, hope this works. So I think we need to discuss

(09:45):
the discipline of the Cowboys six against.
Getting ridiculous this time of year.
They need to stop giving away asmany six against and penalties
and start controlling the ball abit better.
What are your thoughts? Yep, I actually say it to these
guys in the group chat and I've said it a few times that it must
be coached into the squad to leave early because we give away

(10:07):
that many inside 10s. I don't know.
I think a lot of the six again restarts I was watching and I
think this Storm game, it might have also been our game.
And you go, what? That's not a rock infringement.
Well, that was definitely our game because you said it in
Group chat and I said the same thing.
It was like we said and. That was the 4th tackle Rock
infringement like that's what? What the hell is that for?

(10:28):
That's not rock like. Yeah and it's up to the ref can
just call it just say rock infringement and.
Call. There's no checking, No, no.
Has anyone ever gone back to actually check to see how many
that were called were actually legit?
I'd be happy in 26 to just get rid of 6 again if it's worth the
penalty so they can take to it goal then blow it.
If not, just it's their tackle. There's so many of them.

(10:50):
Yeah, there is that. But again, what Bruce is saying
is how come our team is so bad with them?
Because we also we, we have someshit discipline.
We also put ourselves under the foot with the set restarts or
carry backs. But Hess off the kickoff almost
dropped it. Yeah, after we just scored, I
think it was 18-6. We dropped the ball there.

(11:10):
We're fatiguing ourselves. And then that's when penalties
come in and set restarts. Like we gotta just hold the
pill. A lot of our forwards do that.
I I get nervous every time when yeah, Reuben Carter's dropped a
lot lately. Yep, He's he's out of form as
far as I'm concerned in terms ofbringing the ball back.
Name doesn't go a game without dropping the ball usually over

(11:30):
the line when he's trying to score.
But I mean, you know, hard carries, but you just no other
team drops it like we do and. Then also in the press
conference, I don't know if you saw that, but the Cowboys gave
away a scrum penalty. Yeah, I.
And the reporters asked Todd, oris that Coach Danny said, oh,
that one's not, but it is something we look at.

(11:52):
And then caught her answer to go, yeah, Now we we did that
because it gave us a rest. And they got 20 seconds or so
rest while the scrum was gettingdone and then didn't form it.
So they deliberately gave a penalty away so they could just
go and reset their line as opposed to having six in the
middle and then having a scrum play for the attacking team.
Yeah. So there's things like that that

(12:14):
other teams and you do start noticing other teams are giving
away scrum penalties. So they get the 25 second rest
for the scrum form and it's usually only 20 out from the
line, so they're not going to kick the touch.
Yeah. And I don't think you can take a
shot at goal off a scrum penalty.
So let's let's just set your line anyway.
Well, they'll change that next year.
Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, they won't leave that

(12:35):
stuff. No, but that's doesn't conform
to. But that's game management as
well. That's like if you're a coach,
like Pavement said that yeah, itis that we do discuss so.
Yeah, it's finding a loophole. And yes, we need the extra rest.
Oh. Yeah.
I mean, it's like a professionalfail, but you basically don't
get a not a negative for. It I don't like it, but.
If it's in the rules, it's in the rules.

(12:57):
Especially other people doing it.
Well, the. Staves having a three on two
play, like if your half back sweeps around to the short side
and you're isolated at least nowand you've got a set line.
And it brings like sort of takesthat fatigue, brings that back
in so. Yeah, yeah.
And like I said, you get that rest for the scrum and then you
get another rest because they'reblown penalties and yeah, the
ref has to go back into the lineand then your lines getting set.

(13:20):
So you've almost had a 42nd recharge?
Good question bro. Bruce, I absolutely 100% agree.
We've got another one from Jacob.
Hi lads, it's Jacob here. Just want to get your thoughts
on our new debuts on Temple starting at 14 on the bench.
I know he's a hooker and he's been training with the Cowboys
during the Origin block and has been playing a bit of Q Cup for

(13:42):
the Cutters. Just want to know your thoughts
and who you think would be best to sign on as #9 starting next
year as Robert goes and yeah, orwhether not we bring someone
through the pathways. Cheers guys.
Yeah, another good question. Temple Caleppo.
He's. He's got no player profile on
the Cowboys page. He's the only one that you can't
clip. On he's a cutters he.

(14:02):
Can bring up his Q cup. Stuff he's had a bit of hype
about him at the Cutters he. Looks pretty good.
He's he's got that build to comethrough.
And he's a hooker, so that's. Which is a good thing.
Perfect. Time to play him alongside like
it's it's he's doing something good because Carl Lawton was
signed for Manly as our interchangeable backup hooker.

(14:22):
I don't know if Carl's injured or not, but and.
He's straight in. He's keeping.
He's keeping someone like Carlott and he's played almost
100 games out of the side. So I'm I'm excited for having
this sort of come through like North Queensland.
Cowboys were a team for the North to get in.
I don't know Temples background.But can we see where he was
born? Do we know that?

(14:43):
I thought it was on his profile.I thought I saw it there, but he
debuted with the cutters you have.
To imagine it's well at least inNorth Queensland, but you'd have
to imagine hopefully down near Mackay, Burdakan. 24 year old
lad. So it's not like we're just
rushing a 19 year old in appliedhis apprenticeship in a bit of
time. I reckon he'll be you know, it's
it's this is where moments are done.
Like we don't have Robbo next year.
We are chasing someone. There's talk of Reed Marney,

(15:05):
there's talk of that talent of silver.
There's talk of a few other if you've got essentially 3 feet
clubs, but not really because Blackhawks are.
South, which is, but still crazyit's.
Still a person that's in North Queensland, yeah, essentially
you've got 3, but you've at least got 2.
That's two hookers you can choose from, plus they've got
backup hookers. So you've got essentially 4

(15:26):
hookers that you could choose from for replacement Robbo next
year. Yeah, same with halves.
We don't need to go to market. You've got the choice of four
halves getting around in the comp.
You saying you don't want Cobo? I don't want Cobo.
No, no, no, no. Didn't that come out?
Enough. We don't.
We don't need another Brisbane reject.
Basically, yeah, that's what we did when we started the Cowboys

(15:47):
and the Comp. You know, you get all the
rejects and all the bloody people up on their retirement.
Is he is he, if I made it in that that other post that you
know, Purdue went in that game against Dolphins, I think it was
Purdue went to fullback because Drinky went HIA.
Purdue looks good back there. Could you move Drinky into 60 in
at 7? I still like the idea of

(16:08):
Duffman, but Tom will tell with him.
Hopefully he hasn't blinded thisweekend.
Oh, Duffy's my man. I'm still backing in Duffy and I
will do it for a few more weeks I reckon.
Yeah, I'll always get excited. When I see his name get.
I'm a believer. Get put into the side.
Yep. So Caleppo was he's a promising
hooker, 23 year old mate, 18 career appearances in NSW Cup
since 2019 and was formerly a member of the New Zealand

(16:31):
Warriors NRL squad before being released at the end of 2021.
OK, he struggled with the injuries during his time at the
Knights and had two years of no pre season after injuring his
hamstring. Bit of a journeyman.
He was he's on a was a train andtrial with Cowboys.
He looks good though. At the moment so.
I mean straight in. Sorry, something.
He's been injured and he's playing Q cup and they've he's

(16:55):
caught the eye of someone to gethim into the 1st grade side.
Exciting times. Yeah.
No, bring it on. And it would be good to have a
semi developed and clearly he's come from other clubs, but a
semi developed hookah. I know Harrison Edwards, I mean
he's named it hookah this week. And like you say, Carl Lawton,

(17:16):
who you know, has in the last couple of weeks hasn't been that
bad. I'm not sure Harrison Edwards is
the solution. To me he's not really a hookah.
He's more a background. He's fill in if he can fill in a
job, but he's not he's not the thing.
And you know, people go, oh, we got to we haven't signed anyone.
We haven't done anything. Oh, who are we going to get?
You don't become 100 game playerwithout playing.

(17:39):
You know, like we Rob Darby. He's your boy.
Yep, Yep. If we've had Felty the last few
weeks, I'm not saying Felty stops 40 points against the
Roosters and another 50 against the Dolphins, but Felty catches
the ball better. Felty's got more more
confidence. But Felty played 240 odd games.
Yeah, Kirby's played what, 6? Laybot's played about 8.

(18:00):
Purdue's played about 15. Playing the kids you're gonna
have, you're gonna have mistakes.
I'm sure you know Clifford's been a journeyman, but he's only
played about 55 odd first grade games.
I'm sure in 15 and 16, I don't exactly remember, but Kyle might
have been a little bit, I mean not as good as he was, no like
last year and the year before here so.
You only get to be good by playing like you know all the

(18:24):
all this media outlet in NRL on Fox and 100% there's no
halfbacks on market for a team to buy or Cherry Evans is gone.
There's no one coming through. Well, how do you get to come
through if you're not playing like?
They start somewhere. They all, they all that he
crapped on about this guitar from the Dolphins last year.
Oh, he's not quite up to it. He's like he's now into his

(18:44):
fourth straight season and braining it.
Yeah, it takes time. And then suddenly they click.
Absolutely. Plenty don't too.
That's the other. That's the other part.
There's only 17 hookers in the 1st grade, hookers in the
competition or half backs or whatever.
So there's gonna be a point where.
You need to start breeding your.Own.
Yeah, and or where half a dozen of them aren't gonna be great.

(19:05):
Reese Robson wasn't he was a junior Rep player but he never
got to games with the Dragons. He's killed it since he's been
up here, but he's been up here and played 6 odd seasons for.
Us and the first three seasons we were like.
He was interchange, he was a 50 minute player playing alongside
Granville. Well, that's right.
So. And now he's developed in like,
yeah, oh, we need a replacement hooker next year because Robbo's

(19:28):
leaving. Who are we going to get?
Well, this Temple bloke, if he'sgood enough and he has a few
good games and you start bringing him as a 14 and he
comes on from a robber for 20 minutes and then all of a sudden
he's your next guy. But you also, you need to find
out what you've got otherwise, like if you don't play them then
they'll sign somewhere else and then all of a sudden he could be

(19:49):
the next bloody Yenny body and he's signed with the dogs or the
Roosters or something like that.We're about to be on here.
Just an aside, he has come from a very direction.
It's because of the weird. You can't go.
Did he go that way and then comearound?
Yeah. You gotta go around and do the.
Look, can you get in that way? You you can do a little shortcut
for here. Yeah, you can.
But no, he's, he's come the block, which you have to do

(20:11):
'cause he can't turn right. So he's he's.
So he's waited the light and that's just not showing
correctly. So he's he's gonna come in.
He's gonna you're gonna see the headlights here.
Yeah, OK, right. Yeah, There we go.
It just looked on. You're right up there like he's
come from around the. Yeah, right.
Yeah, Yeah. I don't think he's.
Done. I didn't think there was an
entrance on that. But no, there you go.
And. There's a gate that's locked.
Yeah. You there's a dirt track here
you can actually come through and yeah, huge or something like

(20:32):
that, yeah. OK, good to know.
Good to know. I'll keep that in mind for the
future. But anyway, that is, yeah, some
good, good speak pipes there. If you want to submit yourself a
speak pipe to be played live andevidently unvetted, head to
speakpipe.com. Forward slash on the ranch, all
one word and you can leave a thought, a message, a question.

(20:53):
So thanks Jacob and Bruce for the questions today.
Feedback. Feedback is a gift.
And we are going to now, all right, all of a sudden switch
segments to the fillet fish taste test, all right.
Here we go, the fillet review now.
Fillet. Because I've had a bit.
Of a journey. These have come from North
Shore. From North Shore an 89% Uber.

(21:16):
Hopefully he didn't lick them. Grill slip mfy side one.
Yep, double fillet. Double fillet fillet.
Bill and Bill and Robs. You need to have a little bit of
a narration on what you're thinking.
Well, I'm just having a little my.
Now often with the fillet, who tend to get the sauce on one
side. Who knew fish came in a in a
square package? I like to leave the sauce to the

(21:37):
back end. I like to start on the dryer
side and finish on the the. Moist side, right?
So now in a proper review here, we need to get this up to the
camera so the camera can see. Yeah, get on the double flag,
guys. I don't know that.
The Burger of Kings Burger KingsI.
Don't know how appetizing that looks on camera.
It is the best McDonald's burgerBill.
You're gonna you're gonna pee your pants in in excitement.
Probably. Probably not in excitement,

(21:59):
potentially in salmonella, no. No, these are pretty good.
I mean that it's a square piece of fish.
That is. I have to say the smell is nice.
Even after the long transit, these are still good actually.
I'm actually really surprised tosee inside it that it actually
looks like a piece of fish and not like what I was trying to
say before. That is Red Throat emper.
It is not. It is.

(22:21):
Be the straight off the trawler down to Ross Creek.
Isn't it hokey? It's a bit of hokey pokey.
Look, the flavour is can taste awhole lot of tartare sauce.
It's a good aye, the tartare. Compliments.
Doesn't get worst. This is good, Aye?
And you're very Australian. I'm not a big tartare guy, I'm a
Mayo guy. If I go to the fish and chip
shop, I don't get tartare. But the tartare they use a

(22:43):
Maccas is top tier. It's outstanding.
Top tier. Top tier.
Yeah, look, it's fish. Definitely real fish, I'll have
to say that. Yeah, that is a massive surprise
for me because. If we do, if we just do it, just
do a quick. And how good's a bun?
Steamed bun. Put on the camera there a.
Steamed bun It's the only burgerwith a steamed bun.
The only thing I don't like is the uneven distribution of the

(23:04):
tartare is if you bite it without the tartare.
So enthusiastic you cannot inhale it any quicker.
That is something I need to. Tartare all over his face.
The tartare is always lopsided standing.
You know you've got a good. Check me a survey out there
these morgies. You know, I don't know there are
any. You know you've got a good filet
when you get like a good distributional tartare.
Because it's been a tissue. There morgies it can be pretty

(23:25):
overplace. I mean, this is quality.
This is quality content for the pod.
It's a fresh new segment. We try a burger.
Yeah, they are good, you gotta admit.
They are. They are good.
It's not bad. Would you get up on?
I'd get another one. Well, I'm I'm genuinely
surprised that it's real fish. We told you.
We told you it was. It's just shaped.

(23:47):
Yeah, shaped Not like a real fish.
Yeah, it shapes like a lasagna Topper.
Some some. Fish do come in squares, yeah,
and all of curvy. Well, probably not.
These fish not all curvy. We have no discrimination, all
shapes and sizes. Should I tip him?
No he doesn't. He won't get it.
It's just the bullshit. Thing Was he nice?
Did you tell him to listen on the ranch?
I should have. He didn't even.

(24:07):
He didn't even get out of the car, really.
Unbelievable. Would you have to walk up and
open the door and go? Where's my burgers, Boy?
Boy, that. Was.
That was outstanding. I'll never say no to a double
filet of fish, ever. Might just fall out of the bum.
You're not eating it properly. That was a good double.
I mean, I'm not eating it. That was a good burger.
I mean it's bun is nice. Good bun.

(24:30):
The bun is sensation. And the cheese, the cheese in
the fish is such a smart. Yeah, that's.
Not I reckon if you go double Patty you gotta go double cheese
as well. Yeah, that's not.
That's true. No, not cheap.
Breaking the bank? I was already 50 in.
I couldn't afford four more slice of cheese, Billy.
But the only we're. In $65.
The only way I was saying 50 bucks to go quicker is in a
pokey machine. Basically, yeah.

(24:51):
Yeah, but sometimes you get the feature and it comes back.
While you guys finish up I will give a shout out the Twin Cities
Hotel Pokey Room. Free popcorn.
I got a popcorn machine, free popcorn, free popcorn, and I
believe free coffee and hot chocolate.
If you plan a machine, yeah. Yeah, that's the unusual for on
the machines. That's not unusual for.

(25:11):
That's pretty normal, yeah, Yeah, but free.
Also free chips, as in like yourDoritos and your stuff like
that. But what grabbed my attention
was the free popcorn. You just walk up and grab it out
of the machine. It's fantastic.
The last few weeks we've been doing trivia down at the
Riverside Tavern. Yep, and afterwards might go for
a slap. Fix that.

(25:31):
Free lolly bar if you play. Really.
Yeah. Yeah.
So there's a jar of mint, he's ajar of nuts, a jar of Allana's
party mix, and a jar of something else.
This could be a new segment. The benefits you get on the.
Jelly beans A. Slut with various places around
Townsville. And then because we've been
there a couple of times and we've just helped ourselves how
you feel. And then this time we're going

(25:52):
in. Oh yeah, we get, we're going
legitimately paying for a slap and oh, loves it.
Why do you throw on the use? Yeah, we're going in for a slap.
Oh, by all means, you can have it because I think there's just
uni bums that we go there and raid it.
Yeah. Yeah, it makes sense.
The uni bummer. Just put a dollar in the machine
and do 1 cent spins. Just get all that's.
What I was just thinking. That was good.

(26:13):
Fill it a fish. All right, so just get around
it. We'll just see how it out of 10,
another 5-10. We'll go clockwise out of 10.
How are we doing out of 10 out? Of 10 it's I'll give it a solid
6. Called 6 Pete.
Yeah, look, nothing's perfect, but that's not far off.
But I'll give that a 9.7 I. Was going to give it a 9.7.
I wasn't thinking about points, so I'll go straight 9.

(26:33):
It would have been better if it was a little bit hotter and a
bit fresher, but it did come 15 minutes from North Shore.
Look, I'll go with 7 go. With seven, I'll go with seven,
yeah. Nice.
Like it was. It was nice.
Better than you expected though.Yeah.
Yep. Yeah.
What were you thinking before itbefore you put your?
Well, like I say, like fish is not my go to meal.
So it's not I'm I'm very fish. Fish is usually.

(26:55):
What you think? When you think like a two or
something. Yeah, I was.
My biggest gripe is the uneven distribution of the tarte sauce.
Yeah, that because it's like youbite one side and that's fishy
and you bite this side and it's tarte.
Yeah. That's burger management.
Yeah, that's Burger Management. Yeah, that's on you.
But the surprise me, the surprise is that it's actually
fish. Yeah, yeah, that was my big.

(27:16):
Real we've been telling you for weeks of three fish.
Fill it a fish and you think it was fill it a donkey or
something. Well, when have you had a fish
finger or a chicken nugget again?
Yeah, not actually really. Just a fillet of fish.
It's it's in the burger name. It's a fillet of.
Fish a fillet it. Literally says it.
That means. It's a fillet of coral trout
fish. Yeah, the burger patties

(27:36):
sometimes sweet lip. The burger patties aren't just a
steak slice or. Herky Yeah.
Now, thanks for that, Morgan. That was good.
Yeah, look, you're welcome. Thanks to I'm.
Just here to spread word guys, you are spreading a lot.
Is that a segment brought to us by Fusion Network?
It is brought to you by Fusion Networks.
And as we always say, just spread the word to one more
person when you get to work tomorrow, Say, guys, girls,

(27:59):
guess what happened to me last night.
I tried to fill out a fish. Oh, I'm not going to be.
Yeah. And I'll be like, oh, really?
What do you think of it? You go king of burgers, standing
King of burgers. King, King.
King of burgers considering. Kings considering before trying
it, it was just a standard one. I reckon the fact that it was
real fish. I'll bump my 6 to A7.
Yeah, I think we converted him. Yeah, we converted him.
You will get another fillet. Oh.

(28:20):
I definitely will, yeah. That's my boy.
That's my boy. As far as fast food burgers go,
that's the best. And it's healthy, too.
But you got to do the four Patty, 4 patties, 4 cheese.
I see. I saw a picture of him on
Facebook. Nearly made me throw up.
But now I'm a bit more. Yeah about it.
Yeah. 4 patties, 4 pieces of cheese.
Extra tarty. I reckon that would.
Be oh extra tarty that doesn't. Oh, I don't know, 4-4 patties,

(28:43):
That's that's something. That's a whole side of fish.
That's a lot. That's that's a filling burger
too. I'm chalkers now.
I will say though, a fish burgerfrom a fish and chip shop.
Are the best. That's really good.
That's really good, yeah. If I'm gonna have a fish burger,
that's where I'm gonna get it from.
Dad and Dave's Tucker box up theright here.
You get a grilled fish and saladwrap, and she goes, do you want

(29:03):
me to toast it for you? Not for long, but yeah, yeah,
yeah. That would be good.
So sandwich press, toast. It just holds everything.
Seals that in. So.
Good. So good.
Dad and Daves Tucker box grilledfish salad Wrap with a toast on
it. Put a horn on a jellyfish.
It would and here we are again talking about food on the Footy

(29:23):
Podcast. So NRL round 17 review versus
the Titans, this one at Sea Bus Super Stadium on the Gold Coast
on Sunday the 29th of June. A lovely 13,882 people in
attendance to watch. The Cowboys put five tries on
the Titans and then the Titan put four tries work on the
Cowboys, but we don't talk aboutthose ones.

(29:44):
Scotty Drink Water with a doubleZaki Labor getting over in the
7th minute. All too easy and Jeremiah and I
sealing it in the 49th minute. None of that was in order
because Scotty Drink Water actually sealed it in the 71st,
but the goal kicking was a little shared around.
Yeah, interesting. So you reckon?
Two from Scotty, Drink water 3 from Jake Clifford.

(30:05):
Was that a left and right thing?Yes, paying.
Attention. I reckon that's the way to do it
if you've got 2 good kickers like that, yeah.
I like it too. It's thinking outside the box.
And Cliffo put one up and managed to spin it the wrong
way. Yeah.
Oh yeah. Spun forwards.
Yeah, I saw. That just a big old topoke that.
Was the old topoke that one? But look, it was a straight kick
and it went over, but the the. Maybe Zach Lomax can try that.

(30:27):
The sure went over when you're watching it live because so he's
got the accuracy, but has that fallen like 5 meters short?
You've got to wonder if it wouldhave the carry.
Yeah, clearly it did. It's a Cliffo boot.
Generally does both Firm or AJ Brimson, JoJo Fafida and Phillip
Sammy getting over for the Titans.
A little bit disappointing thereto let three tries in in the
second-half and. Especially when it's 24/6 and

(30:50):
you got 51 plus with it did and end time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was just happy that we're
actually up at the half. Normally we're down at the half
and we're chasing their own tailtrying to get back in to go.
I mean, it's the Titans. Yeah, by pants this last time.
And they're sitting dead last. So yeah, that's.
The pants a couple of weeks ago.I know, I know.
So you'd want to hope that we actually get up to that one.

(31:12):
We paid them by 50. You sure?
Yeah. Up in Townsville, Yeah.
It was 50 to 18. Someone else.
I thought I'll be thinking aboutanother team.
It was on Camfield actually for about 20 bucks or fuck you
mates. And in any case, they're still
bottom in the ladder, so the fact that they put 24 points on
was still concerning. Obviously there's still issues,

(31:32):
but A wins A win A. Win is a win.
Look, this sees you just have tofinish in the top 8 and it's
that close that a team outside the top 4 with the com where you
know how's top forward starting going to be one of those four
teams. Do you reckon someone from
outside could? Have a yeah, yeah.
If you finish eight, you're justas good as chance of being in

(31:54):
the grand final as the minor premiers.
If they're on their day. Picking up a dolphin zoo pants
just. Yeah, I was sitting next to.
You wrong Queensland team. Very much so.
That's very, very different. Yeah.
Look, still some cracks in the old defense there.
Yeah, yeah, big holes. And the attack seemed to be a
little more coherent to a point.I mean, I know it's a Titan.

(32:16):
So was that Yeah. How much of that was us and how
much was that's why did. A lot of.
Pretty good. We had a little more structure.
We had more attacking flair. Against the Roosters, there was
absolutely nothing from set to set, even from play to play.
It didn't look like there was a plan, at least it looked, in
this case, like they were tryingto execute something.
And then it actually came off once or twice.

(32:38):
Well, five times, evidently. But yeah, you know, it's so I
think it's a turn around from the last couple of weeks and the
only play was put in front of you.
But often our offense, I think does paper over the cracks in
our defense. And the last couple of weeks
when we've gone really bad, it'sbecause not only is our regular
defense there, which is holes, but then the offense is not

(32:58):
firing. So we're not scoring and we're
leaking drives. Whereas at least now we're
scoring, but we're still leakingdrives.
But hopefully we score more thanthey do.
It was slippery though too. There was a bit of.
Rain. Yeah.
Yeah, it was. Yep.
So bucket it down. Yeah, we've been playing a few
rain games lately. Yeah, yeah, we're like Rain Man.
You're not in a good way. Maybe I need to bring back the

(33:19):
the arm. What were they?
The Dryser bones? The Dryser bones?
If you got one of them stashed in your cupboard, hit us up.
We're after a couple. Dryser Bank Cowboys Jacket.
Well, I think we covered that like two or three weeks ago,
didn't we? You still had 140 odd points put
in put on us in the last three weeks.
Yeah, we're leaky. Leaky.
That's a good we are. We're leaky.

(33:40):
We've got some. Problems.
Yeah. North QLD sieves.
At the moment, yeah, yeah, yeah.Hopefully that turns around.
Look, we can. Sort of.
Fish was good. We could still do 32 ones though
and it's a lot easier, I must say, to do 32 ones when your
team wins. Definitely.
Who wants to kick it off? I'll go.

(34:01):
Oh, boggy. Boggy.
Yeah, I'll go. I'll get them out of the way.
I'll get them. Away, you guys.
Can copy me? I've gone three points, I've
gone my boy did and because of him playing on the offense and
the defence, but two points I'vegone my boy drinky still on
offense but his D is still lacking a bit but good kicking.
You've got to watch him. You've got to watch him behind

(34:21):
the sticks. You've got to watch him behind
the sticks. Maybe that's the issue.
I didn't watch him. I'll put one as a game, one as a
game. Him and Cliffo won as a game on
their boot with the kicking and for one I've gone Cotter.
I think he turned it around, hadsome big numbers and solid
playing. We'd better go forward.
So I think Cotter did pretty good.
I know it was his first 80 minute game in.

(34:41):
In a bit, in a while, yeah, I think he's, I think he's
becoming good. Maybe Origin up to bit?
Never hurts. Yeah, exactly.
They do tend to come back betteras I've always said that.
Honorable mention, I'll put Cliffo for kicking straight on
the conversions, even though he did part one across and getting
asked for points to win the game.
NSW Origin shows what happens when you don't kick conversions

(35:03):
and props of Robo for a little shake and bake on the last try.
I like that little move and I also made a note which I've
already brought up, but it was alittle odd.
We're up in the half. Normally we're chasing our tails
so that's a little bit not like us.
So hopefully that is a nice trend to continue forward.
Chase, like Kowalski I. Have to agree with.

(35:24):
That like Perkins, my man Perkins back in 4000 meter.
Perkins just lead. 1996 Lane to Olympics lane 8.
I'm. Gonna run lane 8.
I'm gonna run away with this. Fast lane so.
That Pete can copy off me. I went three points for Tom.
Dean must be the subject of video sessions for other teams
every week. Keep an eye on him, watch him in

(35:44):
defence. He's always there, he's always
chasing, always talking defenders.
He's trying to, you know, push people around.
Doesn't look like he loses his cool too often.
Maybe he's. A chill.
He's a chill man. Maybe against the dolphins and
Roosters. I think he might have lost it a
couple times. The ass man.
Yeah, 2 point, drink water. But two points, He could be
rocks or diamonds. This week he was a diamond

(36:05):
without a doubt. One point for Cohen Hess, just
33 minutes. But he managed nine runs for 95
meters, 39 post contact meters, 24 tackles, a line break.
And he seemed to bend the line, went at it with gusto is the
term that I just made-up. And honourable mention I gave to
Thomas Mckaylee, who had similarto Hess but with less minutes,

(36:26):
made an impact. He was hard to put down.
And for Reuben Cotter, I gave anhonourable mention as well.
Knocked out 80 minutes. He's been out of form in my
opinion, but he might just be coming back.
I'm gonna do mine differently this week.
I'm gonna go from honourable mentions up to the top.
We haven't written any honourable mentions.
In the run sheet, but I know. Thanks, but you're a bit of a
run sheet rogue. Honourable mention.

(36:49):
Fillet of fish, yeah. Tom-tom Mckaylee, exactly for
what you just said there. I did like Hess, but he he lost
my honourable mention when he single handed the LED the Titans
there try by not getting back onside and then just stopping in
the line and then realizing he had to still do it.
So get on side, Hess. That was your fault.

(37:09):
I put that in there. Jibber jabber.
That's a. That's a call out.
That's a call out, Yeah, just. RIP him.
Yeah no. I do love Hessie though, but he
gave up on the play which led toa tights you're.
Gonna drop him as well. No shit, no, this is this is
good. Just wanted to make sure people
know that I'm not just one eyed bias and they're actually if
they're watching the game. That's see what I saw at one

(37:30):
point for the Mars. Surprised he's not in Origin.
We have missed him the last fouror five weeks.
His his kick returns, his patience, his ball handling,
finishing under the highball as well.
Like just you just know when it goes to him, he's just going to
head down, bum up and and put his hand up for work. 2 points I

(37:50):
went there. The Reuben Sandwich, he all
touched on 80 minutes of footy in front row plus a tackling
machine and one point. Robson, That was one of his best
games in Cowboys colours this year.
Three points, three points, sorry, three points for that.
He grabbed it in behind the line, which then got us a set

(38:10):
restart which led to our fourth try.
That was finally yes is what I'mthinking is yes, finally some
something creative on the 5th grabber it in.
It's not always going to work. And he was firing up at his
outside back. So because it's like it's on,
it's on. And he didn't have the kid Chase
to say try it and just ground the ball.

(38:31):
Yeah, yeah. But, you know, at least he, he
was trying. Yeah.
And for a hooker to do that, like it's doesn't, you know, I
know some others do. Cody Walker terms not the Cody
Walker's hooker, but you know he'll he'll pull it out of his
repertoire every now and then. A lot of a lot of tries come
from mistakes and you've got to put them under pressure at the
line to get the mistakes. Yeah, other hookers will do it.

(38:54):
I don't know. Robbo's done it before as well.
It's just we haven't seen. It usually gets trapped.
And we haven't seen and there's a lot of grubbers lately that
have just gone straight into theopposite.
Lakes. So that is just.
I don't. A lot of what we've been doing
is just bomb and hope, yeah, hope Nano, I'll grab it or hope
it went to. That nano's.
Been doing it for. Us as well.
He has, He has, but yeah. When he had his breakout season

(39:17):
and he really started, you know,pulling down those bombs from
the heavens, it's like we forgotabout some other attacking
options and it was always just bomb it to Nano and hope he gets
it. Or Hess.
Hess when he was in. There when he was chasing just
all. Love Hess but all he was doing
was tapping it back. Yep, the other teams, not on to
that. So now, so now they hang around

(39:38):
and wait for that tap back anyway, just bury it up.
That's all we want to see. And I do want to shout out,
dear. And you guys gave him points.
I didn't fit him in this week, but he was barking orders early.
If I think we made an error or something and he's up his side
going, you got to be in there. You got to do this.
He's starting to get his voice as the general on field.
Good to see. Yeah, absolutely.

(39:59):
And you know, not that it's about time.
We've always known how good he is.
As a player, individual player. But if you're starting to roll
up team, that's what's wrong with that.
In that origin confidence. Anyway, we put the Titans behind
us and look forward-looking forward we are.
NRLW kicks off this week and theCowboys are hosting the Titans

(40:22):
at Queensland Country Bank Stadium in what's going to be a
double header here in Townsville. 5:15 PM.
This one kicks off and it's the start of the season for the
ladies. I must say, been looking forward
to this. I kind of like a good ladies
game. Jakaya Whitfield, Crystal
Blackwell, Abigail Roach, Jasmine Peters, Francesca
Goldthorpe, Rosie Kelly and KiraDibben.

(40:43):
The halves Lillian Yarrow, Emma Manzelman, McKenzie Wheel,
Talisha Harden, Haley J Ormond Monsel and Bree Chester.
Say Hanselman, was she just injured for Women's Origin?
Was she? It's odd that she wouldn't have
made the Queens answer. I don't know if she was in camp,
I don't know if she was injured.But yeah, I found that too,

(41:04):
because normally she comes on inorigin sort of halfway through
and. And excuse my ignorance, but if
we lost young China Pilata. I believe so.
I know Pilata, I've. Been out hyphenated by some of
these players here. There's a lot of hyphenated
names in this. Yeah, there was a.
Front and back name, Yeah. I've never seen hyphenation.

(41:25):
I just got I just got cooked. I thought I had a long name.
I hate to see her passport. China Platter has a ACL.
Oh no. Good.
Now that was done last year, butshe's probably still recovering
from that. I would say that was round six
last year, yeah. Bugger.
I like China. And ICL will do do you pretty
much yeah. Or can do I'll.

(41:46):
Get you? So she's probably fighting her
way back. I didn't think she'd signed
elsewhere that I saw. So anyway, there you go.
But there's a few extra new names in there for the ladies.
I believe we signed it was an Abigail Roche potentially signed
a few players from women's rugby.
And Brie Chester, relation to young Tommy Chester, brother and

(42:07):
sister. Is that true?
Statement or question? You just making that up?
I'm asking. I'm pretty sure it's true
though. Look people, people who know
better would probably be able toanswer that straight away.
Let's just have a quick I did think of this last.
Year I'm going to say yes, I'm going of yes, I mean it's a 5050
so. Well, isn't Tom Chester a local
because Breechester was born in New South Wales?
Yeah, born in NSW. We won't be off gun here.

(42:31):
Yeah, so Tommy Chester was actually born in Townsville in
2001. Yeah, that doesn't mean
anything, doesn't mean they can't be they.
Couldn't have been on a holiday somewhere and then mum's at Oh
hang on me waters. Breechester, 28th of June 2002,
Port Stephens, NSW. Yeah, yeah, that's fine.
But how about you just type in Isbrie and Tom Chester, brother

(42:53):
and sister? I have just done that then.
They're not. They're not.
I'm not seeing anything come up about.
They might be because of the truth.
Maybe they're cousins. I imagine if they were, it would
be all over the Internet. So I don't think they are
related. Yeah, I don't think so.
Well, the AI overview says there's no indication that
they're related based on publicly available information
about their respective careers. And yeah, you just have to

(43:15):
believe AI, Google's AI. It's not trying to upload itself
to US to USB stick and take overthe world.
Not yet. Not yet, anyway.
Mystery solved. Bree Chester.
But that one's 5:15 PM. It's up against the Titans,
which is Jamie Chapman, Kayla Jackson, George Gray, Ivana
Lalessio, Destiny Amino. Sinapati.

(43:38):
Talia. Oh my God.
Talia Fui Morano. Lauren Brown.
Natasha Panettani, Brittany Bray, Leonardi, Jessica
Elliston, Sienna Lafipo, Shay Lebent, Georgia Hale and I'm
going to try the bench because some of those names, that's
seems a pushing mind. Surprise, you didn't want me to.
Do that holy shit #16. Well, you get to do the, the,

(43:59):
the, the men's game. No Vegas.
No. Yeah, after we're.
We're wanting that one on. The men's game?
That was a shocker. That was brilliant.
That was possibly the best part of last week.
But that one's 5:15 PM get on down to Queensland Country Bank
Stadium, you can pick up that game and then go straight into
round 18. Saturday 15th.
No, it's the 5th of July. 7:35 PM.

(44:21):
The Cowboys in 12th place takingon the Storm, although it's
very, very Origin affected. Yes.
So the team list, because we're recording on Tuesday night.
Morgan does team list Tuesday. Yeah, Morgan's got to read these
out. Which would now which?
Do you want to do the storm or do you want to do the Cowboys?
I'll go storm. All right, so we've got Scotty

(44:43):
drink water up against. Oh, Ryan Papenhausen.
Sorry, I didn't know we were going one for I thought we'd do.
This poop and whoops. OK, Yep, Scotty drink against
Ryan Papenhausen. We got Rob Darby.
Grant Anderson on the wing. Jackson Pierdu.
Joseph Chan. Is it Joseph or just Joe?
Oh, it's Joe, but I'm going Joseph I.
Like Chan, I like. Joseph Sounds.
Better, even if it's not a Joseph and it's just a Joe, I

(45:04):

No, I like Polynesian names. You just got to send them out.
What's the cowboy 19 there? Morgs big.
Big M, that's where he is. Big MIB.
Marley bitten Ghane. I've got massive wraps on
Marley. It's good to see him climbing up

(47:12):
the Audi. I know they reckon that the
numbers are just jersey sizes, but tell you what, he can pack a
bit of Ord venom. Marley, bitten.
Garni. Tell you what, we got Braden
Burns at 18th Marley Bitten Garni, Jamal Shibasaki, the good
Shibasaki, Jackson Polo and Mason Kira.

(47:32):
That's not a bad extended. Funny feeling that Mason Kira is
good friends with my nephew Treyfrom the Sunshine Case.
Really. Just drop a name.
I think I think I could be wrong.
Well, I was gonna say yeah, no, you could be right there.
You could be right. So anyway, that's 7:35 PM.
This is I said origin affected could go either way, yeah.

(47:56):
It's always a bit of an interesting wonder in the Origin
weeks to see what happens, but Ireckon we're putting up a pretty
good team and maybe we're on Yup.
Maybe, but well. We're on Yup.
We're on Yup. Probably.
A year or two, a week or two ago, we couldn't go on any
words. That's good honestly, sometimes
the only way is up, but we are definitely on.
Yup. There's a song about that
currently is sitting in 12th. We actually, well, we're on 17

(48:18):
points. We're on a heater, man.
We just, we're coming off a win.We're on a heater.
We are. We actually win here.
Win win this one, potentially upin the top 8.
Which is insane. Which might rely on a few other
results, but. Because if you walk around town
it, people are acting like we're, you know, 16.
We are absolutely impossible of making the 8 even if we win this

(48:39):
week. But we're what's that on the way
because. Dolphins and Panthers 7 and 8 on
19 and 18 respectively both havea boy so we can only get a 19 LB
rid of the one. 21 Yeah, yeah, good point.
OK, there is that and the sharks.
Sharks. Buy as well.
Seriously. He's.
Buy is what it is, but the Knights are on 14 points and

(49:00):
tigers and eels and rabbits so they can't.
Even if we lose this week, we can't.
You know, the week that it's notabout going low.
We need to climb, like I said. I'm aware.
You finish an eighth spot, you can win this comp.
It's wide open for the takings. There's no clear cut winner,
even though if Cowboys aren't there, I am definitely wrapped
up in Raider fever. Well, yeah.

(49:22):
Raiders have made a lot of fans this year.
I think Raiders is. Every video with Ricky and Big
pup. Don't you want to see that?
Like if the Cowboys aren't there, Yeah.
Don't you want to see Raiders win the grand final with Ricky
and Papa crying, hugging each other on the.
Side or Canberry and I'm probably.
I'm all for it. I'll take them all the wires at
this point. Yeah, out I.

(49:43):
Think the wires are going to struggle?
They're going to slip. They've lost they've lost Mitch
Barnett to the season with an ACL.
Luke Metcalf looks like he's going for the season.
Yeah chance nickel clocks that'sgoing to be on the sidelines.
They've lost Dylan with Tenny like they're they're falling
like fly I. Hear you, I hear you.
The Fins got a chance. Finzer.
Finzer got a chance. Finzer definitely.

(50:05):
If Hammer doesn't injure himselfin the origin.
Oh. Speaking of Hammer, have you
seen the Hammer news? Yeah, yeah.
He's breaking up. Broken up.
Oh, so this will be interesting to see how it affects his form.
He's always gonna be in a slump or he's in a really Hippo
stripes Bachini news. He's Bachini.
And the dolphin. Jamie Chapman.
Yeah, I can't remember who it was, but he was punching.
She's up here, yeah. Maybe.

(50:27):
Oh yeah, that's right. That's why everyone was talking
about getting him back. No, she's up here this weekend.
Yeah, but I'll talk about him, come back anyway.
Well, he could now. Yeah.
He got no ties. He could no ties, and the Fins
also have Tom Gilbert to return from that PEC injury.
Yeah, I'm the one in. Time for finals and also I think
Max Plath isn't far off but I could be wrong on that one.

(50:48):
I'll tell you what, if I could send Tom Gilbert some fellow
fishers to come back to Townsville.
God I hope he has just goes injury free.
He's had a bad run. Just for a couple of years.
He's had a bad run, he really has.
And it would be really good to see him succeed because he's a
bloody good luck. He's a top luck.
Yeah, finally episode where Tom Gilbert came along our pod and
you understand he's a top luck. Absolutely top notch, that is.

(51:11):
That's round. What's it gonna be Round 18?
Yeah, this is really getting to the point of it, isn't it?
Well. You know it's origin period is
nearly. Finished.
Yeah, we're coming through winter.
You get through origin period, you've got and then through all
the buy rounds and all that and then every team is just back on
the last six games are on their buys and.
This is when it starts to get serious in my eyes.
You know, the origin's done. You buys.

(51:34):
I mean have a buy anyway becauseit's stupid uneven competition.
We beat the storm this week and then we win.
After Origin it is Chaos are back.
In the saddle, game on. Yeah, we're not too far out of
it, but there is some serious leakage that needs to be fixed
before we see any of that. It is Tuesday night as we
record, and if you were to head to Mollies tonight or last night

(51:57):
as you listen to this, you couldget a crumb steak for 15 bucks,
add 2 bucks, 50 you put a salad.And with 23 minutes to go with
at least a 6 minute drive there with red lights, I have no
chance at this tonight. Thank you very much. 30 Nuggets

I didn't get a chance to go a bit crooks still, but apparently

(52:43):
talking with Timmy the host it went off really well.
Worth getting a ticket when it'son in a month's time?
Yeah, well, that's what they were aiming for us to have
better quality. And it was a fundraiser too, so
$10 a ticket and all proceeds went to Angel Paws.
Oh, very nice. Excellent.
I like that one. I love.
That that's a charity that I canget behind.

(53:04):
And when Pistol gets up on, say,just $10 a ticket to get him
off? No, he's not.
And there is there is late male Mason Kira is my nephew Trey's
mate. Really.
Yeah, Wade was just and then he's got any time in.
He's really hoping that he woulddebut during the Origin period.
But top 20? He's there, he could get a look

(53:25):
in there somewhere down the track, and that's as much as
where Spotify will let us play. It's unfortunate they're doing
it to all podcasts though. There's a bunch of them.
They're just Canon their music. Bricks.
It's a Spotify. Well, it's pistols multi awards

The one game Bulldogs VS Broncos, you then Chuck it in
Sami Sasagi, the Canberra Raiders, second Railway.

(54:50):
I think he scored two on the weekend.
Wow. He's playing where Hudson Young
would normally go. Huddy's in Origin camp, he's
been on a bit of a try scoring heater lately.
We then cross to the Cowboys game.
We just want Maz to Lung and Purdue to cross.
Cowboys can do that against the Storm.
Bit of ball and then to round itout the ever reliable Hendo's

(55:11):

He has that knack. Jacob Preston's been running on
an edge. He'll he'll crossover.

(55:57):
Not unless the Bulldogs are driving overs.
That Raiders Blakey, like I said, he's just been on a try
score and heater. That's true.
Rob Tulong and Purdue Tulong's always good for a drinky.
Over Purdue. No, no, Purdue will go through
centre. He'll be backing up on the
inside. He'll, he'll get across.
Don't. Don't put it out that more if
Derby scores now and Ferdu doesn't.
Then I'll take he's. He's coming at you.

(56:18):
If we'll be alive going in that Roosters game and if this is the
one week where Mark doesn't do anything, well.
That's all I wish for, that it doesn't fail long the first
night, yeah, that's all I want. That's.
That's right, Let's this is coming out.
Or the last night, yeah, becauseyou don't want to sit there and
go, should we cash out? Yeah, well, that happened once.
Which we say. And we we rolled.

(56:38):
With it and never cash. Out and it it bowed on us, it
backfired a bit. Probably should have cashed.
Up on it. We should have cashed out, yeah.
Anyway, we're doing it for the fun, not for the money.
Exactly. Bear with your head, not on the.
Room, I know what you're doing it, but.
Yeah. Get more responsible.
Definitely do it. Do whatever the hell you want.
We're not sponsored by anybody. Well, we are sponsored by Fusion

things. The tipping comp, which is
again, thanks to Molly Malones. The main competition this week
is being led by one Townsville man who has used a joker to rock

(57:20):
it up into first place. That's the third joker.
None left for Townsville. Man on 89.
Points 80. 9 on 88 points is Kirky and BJK 1984 .0459.
Cookie does have a joker up his sleeve, her sleeve in fourth
place. Blues Lander, this is, I think
that's Eddie one Eddie Hewitt. Shit, if Queensland lose I am

(57:46):
200 in Dan Murphy. Yeah, exactly.
I thought we'd bring that up. So Blues Lander has used all
three Jokers, Flopster 77 on 87 points as well, and the Irk also
on 87 points. Still have a Joker in hand.
Both those guys. NB Sports fan on 86 points with
a joker in hand. Reggie Bacon 86 points with

(58:07):
Joker in hand. Reggie fell this week.
He was leading it last week. And Mr. T is on 86 points, has
only used one joker, still has two jokers up his sleeve and
three points behind the lead. Good options there and Cal in
rounds out our 10 tenth positionon 86 points as well with the
joker in hand that's. A perfect round this week.

(58:29):
Hawk for life in sugar glider and not joker ring.
Yes, what a noob. So pistol blazing, 2 guns is in
44th position. Yeah, 77 points.

impressed with Catastrophe in 25th.
Yeah, she's coming back. Yeah, no, but on 79, the leaders

Yeah, that's. Danger.
Danger. Will Robinson.
Yeah. 4840, eighth. Use them this week. 76 points is

me. Yeah, yeah, I'm coming, baby.
In 92nd spot is the potato on 69points and on 68 points is
Cowboy chicken. Yeah, you slipping.

(59:36):
Yeah, I'm back on the 3rd. The page three boy.
Back to the Page 3. Someone's going to keep this lot
in check, so. Our Patreon competition kicks
off with In the Lead after tipping a perfect round Hulk for
life 84 points in second place, Sugar Glider on 82 in 3rd place,
Cody O'Hara on 81, Valentine Flyhomes on 80 and is anyone a

(01:00:02):
marine biologist in 5th place also on 80 points that most
people have used just the one joker there Sugar glider has
used too though. So that's that's a tight
competition, that one. So as we go into NRL round 18,
it's short round thanks to Origin.
Many, many buys, but it kicks off on Friday night.

Stormer Dollar 32 Wow. Well, I need to see some turn
around. You know what that means?
Yep. Got on the storm.
The potato has picked the Cowboys, Peter.
Definitely go on the Cowboys. I reckon we'll win this one.
I honestly think that the Storm,they're good and they've got
Papinhausen and Hughes and Wishart's not bad.

(01:02:10):
Storm, they're good. I mean they.
They do have. Papinhausen and Hughes.
And put it on a shirt. Torin Wishart's not.
Not a bad player, but no monster, no coats, no.
Storm. They're good, They're good,
they're good. They've got 2 new wingers
because that full lung goes out injured.
They don't have Coats, they don't have Liera, they don't
have Stefano. We play This Is the Storm pretty

the best 2 halves in Q cup for the Pride last year they're
reunited the band's back together drink he's conducting

We're tougher as one. Stronger as.
One Better Together, stay in thefight.
Built. Yeah, I'll go to the Cowboys
after all. Yeah.
Never, never. Don't back the Cowboys.
It's my winning method. That's why I'm on page three,
boy. Look, Ben Morgan.
I hear what you're saying. Above a storm, they're good.
They're good, they're good. And I'm happy to take a loss on

(01:03:19):
this one and be wrong, but in order to try and get some
tipping winning, I'm going to storm.
Sunday 6th of July, 2:00 PM, Allianz Stadium, Roosters $1.25.
The Tigers are $4. I hate that a bottom four side
in the Roosters is the one that I'm going to have to tip and the
potatoes go on the Tigers pistol.

Burnt me a bit but. They're not going to stop.

I'm going to South Seas. And this time next week, I'm
going to be well about Fistol Bill.
Yeah, give me Souths too, because Manley can just get
stuffed. Yeah, look, it's an argument.
Oh well they they remind me of the was in lots of previous

(01:04:45):
years of tipping where it's you can't tip them at all.
No, if you tip them they lose. If you tip, don't they win every
time? They are a bit like that,
Morgan. I agree Billy's sentiment, but
I'm going to get Manley. Fair enough.
That's it. That's there's just the five
games. Cowboy climb guys if Roosters in
Manly. Anyway, Joker.
Joker in this room. Yeah, totally.
Good idea. Here's one too.

(01:05:06):
Here's one Finn's. Not thinking round 21.
I'm gonna Joker. The Wires, the Eels, the
Panthers, the Sharks and the Titan, they're all sitting down
this week. That's a lot.
A lot of trains just sitting back and watching, which really
sucks for Supercoach. I haven't even looked because I
suck at super coach anyway so I don't even know why I play it.

(01:05:26):
Anyway, that's tipping for round18 and that's almost us for the
week. We'll we might skip the what's
the go segments. Oh what since we smashed A filet
O fish on camera? Well, that that is the go.
That is the go. I wanted to discuss that I did a
Yoga and Pilates mega class on Saturday morning with the great
powerful D and Cheryl from NQ Yoga and Pilates.

it. I'm killing it, man.
And we So you do half hour Pilates and half hour yoga.
Yoga was tough, Tough guy. Start on a Wednesday night at
Jazeem Barracks at 5:30 to 6:15.Pilates with D&G Yoga and
Pilates get around it. I can't make it this week 'cause

(01:06:31):
I got into a cricket at 5:45, but when I have the 7:00 game,
I'll go do Pilates first. Is that right?
It is you will benefit tubs. He's up, Turbo.
And you 2. You cannot bitch tits over here

I reckon. It's fantastic.
You should get around it. I've got something.
OK, I've got something. Please, Billy, can you please

(01:07:14):
Google Guinness split in the G AI AI?
There is now an AI web page you can go to and you take a photo
of your pint. Yeah, of Guinness, Yeah, all
right. And it will use AI to determine
if you have split the G and how close you are.
I thought it would modify the image to show you like move it

(01:07:36):
to the G. There might be a couple out now.
I propose that next time we're down at Molly's, we get the
photo of Pete's splitting the G off the wall off the on the
board. I'm going to run it through the
AI. Run it through the AI.
And just just do a little Fact Check on pistol loose claim to
fame about splitting the G. Colin, can you do this for us?

(01:07:57):
I think this is the one I saw. There's a couple out there you
can analyze your split. The G and I propose we use this
for our benefit. All one word split the G dot dev
DEV. Yep, now this is a good use of
AII can get behind. Pull Put your Guinness splitting
technique to the test. Go view top splits.
We might be able to see some pictures of it in action, but

(01:08:19):
essentially this is bloody good technology.
So all. It's doing is zooming in.
Yeah, it zooms in, but that usesa level and it it checks for
pixels. Yeah, OK.
We're on the. Pixels here we're pixel quality.
So it gives you a score out of five.
Yep, Yeah, right. So see you on the right.
That's what we're talking about.OK.
That's what we're talking about.They get around it, Ranches,

(01:08:42):
ranch hands split the G dot dev.And when you split the G, give
us your rating and we will come back to you on Pete's accuracy
of this tall tail. There's no actual proof that
these people have split the G. Yeah, they could just be drunk
it till it's leveled. Well, that's true.
Like there's a certain amount ofhonesty policy.

(01:09:05):
Yeah, 100%. But it will it will actually
check out your accuracy on this G split.
OK. All right.
A lot of them have happened today.
The top 4 actually happened today, so that's interesting.
You make sure a lot. Of people have this split in GS.
Mate, Sean's in town. I just got an WhatsApp message
saying you and me going to the the Our Boys Storm game Saturday

(01:09:25):
