Speaker (00:01):
Welcome to the Inca here in podcast.

(00:25):
Welcome to the NRL Grand FinalWeek bonus episode.
We are the Incoherent podcasttoday.
We'll go through all six teams,that play Sunday and give you
our take on all three games.
Hoover's back

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (00:37):
how we going?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (00:38):
And Zach's returned.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (00:41):
Yes, back from Central New South
Wales outta the Dust Bowl andback to civilization.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (00:48):
Yeah.
And he's back Tuesday as well.
Tried to tell me he wasn't, buthe is, so, he is excited for.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (00:57):
Yeah, pretty keen for it actually.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (00:59):
I'm pretty keen.
I think it's gonna be a prettygood game.
I, at the end of the day, Ithink it's just gonna come down
to mistakes and, yeah, I'd sayexperience as well, but there
sort of is experience there.
It's only been two years sincethe Broncos were in the grand
Final as well.
So, and there's plenty ofexperience just in Reynolds and

(01:20):
hunting on their own.
yeah, we'll see how we go.
what do you boys prefer?
The day grand final or a nightgrand final?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (01:27):
Day grand final.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (01:29):
I prefer the day ones.
I don't like it because of work,because most of the time I, well
the last five grand finals I'veworked day shift and managed to
get back to watch it after dayshift.
So been a night grand finalsworked out well for me, but
those day games through thefinals have been heaps better to
watch.
Heaps more flowing, moreexciting, Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (01:50):
Faster

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (01:50):
No, it's heaps faster.
Plus this weekend I've got,well, I've gotta go back to work
on Monday morning, so I can'treally go anywhere or do
anything'cause it finishes toolate.
So I'm, I'm gonna be at homewatching it, which I don't mind
that much, but just kindarestricts you to go and do
things.
So I think, I think it'll be agood thing.
It'll work out well for peoplein New Zealand.

(02:11):
So, but how do you reckon that'sgonna work for people in Perth?
Because it's gonna be freakingmidday when the grand finals
played over there, when theycame, come in, because there'll
be people watching it overthere,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (02:24):
seems like a them problem.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (02:26):
not really worried about it.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (02:27):
it's, it's, it's the same but with New
Zealand because a six o'clockgame in New Zealand's old.
o'clock game over there is afour o'clock game for us here,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (02:38):
Yeah.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (02:38):
eh, used to it.

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (02:41):
That's why they use that six o'clock
Friday games because it, theycan have a late game, a normal
time at seven o'clock orwhatever, and then it's just on
at six year, eight o'clock orwhatever.
So that works well for them,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (02:54):
The of the day, the NRL wouldn't
have added Perth if they didn'thave a plan around the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (03:01):
no.

squadcaster-2be6_1_1 (03:02):
situation.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (03:03):
No, they, they would and, I've been
reading reports that they'vedecided they want to go back to
the daytime grand final whereAFL's doing the opposite of
thinking about doing a nighttimegrand final.
But I reckon they'll end upkeeping that one of a day.
And I think this one will goback to a, maybe not four

(03:23):
o'clock, maybe 4 30, 5 o'clockor something.
I think so., I did read thatthey're thinking about, moving
the NRLW game to its ownstandalone grand final, for the
girls.
So, I dunno if you need to, but,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (03:39):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (03:40):
and match NRL, it's grand you.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (03:45):
it's, well, you can, you can look at
it that way or you can look atit that they can make, generate
their own revenue by having itthat on a separate day.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (03:56):
but look, when the girl, when the
girls, the Broncos and the, theBroncos girls and the Broncos
boys both played the same day.
The

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (04:02):
Yeah,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (04:04):
to watch

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (04:04):
yeah,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (04:05):
before.
Yeah.
They might've been there towatch the boys, but is better
than

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (04:13):
yeah.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (04:13):
or 3000.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (04:15):
No, I agree.
But they, they have their ownstandalone origin, like they
don't play before origin andthey get pretty decent crowd for
it.
Like, it's not,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (04:22):
but they

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (04:23):
it's not that bad.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (04:24):
Sydney Oval.
It only holds 5,000 people,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (04:28):
I think that, I don't think they
played in North, they played inNewcastle this year.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (04:32):
Yeah, the origins in Youi wasn't it?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (04:34):
I think it was sold out too.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (04:37):
I

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (04:37):
sure.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (04:38):
it makes for a bigger spectacle if
they're all on the same day.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (04:44):
Yeah.
But if they, if they end updoing a national reserve grade.
Lucky you think they shouldthen.
Do you just do away with the NewSouth Wales Cup, Queensland Cup
game then?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (04:54):
Yep.
They've already had their grandfinal,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (04:58):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (04:58):
so, or they move forward.
They play at 10 o'clock in themorning.
And

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (05:03):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (05:04):
reserve grade, and then the women's, and
then the NRL if they want to goto a daytime grand final.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (05:10):
yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (05:11):
the, yeah.
Uh,

the-incoherent-podcast_ (05:14):
Tickets aren't gonna be any less either
way.
They'll still charge the same aswhat they do now, whether
they're there or not,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (05:20):
I think

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (05:20):
so,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (05:20):
sell more tickets if they've got all
grand finals on the one day, or

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (05:28):
yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (05:29):
e even if they go down that route
of having their own station onKO or whatever own, like the,
like your NFL one, you'll havemore people buying that,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (05:42):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_ (05:43):
purchasing.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (05:43):
Oh, the stream and the park.

squadcaster-2be6_1_1 (05:45):
streaming.
If they're all on one day.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (05:49):
I'd be happy for him to bring, bring
back a day, Tom Grand finalanyway, yeah, I seem pretty used
Best Foods for Grand Final day.
Obviously it's barbecue, but,but like Origin's supposed to be
pizza, which is pretty much,it's just easier to get pizza on
a Wednesday night after work.
You know, super Bowl has chickenwings and frigging all that good

(06:11):
shit, which I do on Super BowlDay.
What do you reckon?
What do you reckon is justbarbecue for grand Final though?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (06:21):
Yeah, depends.

the-incoherent-podcast (06:24):
Depends.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (06:25):
I'm going pork belly burn ends and
pulled pork burgers for dinner.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (06:31):
Well, that's it.
I'll be about to say with theorigin, you have all, all the
games playing.
You could get up early in themorning, put the smoker on,

the-incoherent-podcast_ (06:39):
Origin.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (06:40):
not the origin.
Grand final grand final morning.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (06:44):
Yeah.
On grand final day.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, I, I could do that.
I think my smokers had itthough.
I've been looking at getting anOklahoma J one, another offset
one, but doing my own sort ofthing.
So the smoker is good for thosesort of big days though, eh?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (07:03):
Yeah, I, the electric one though is I
can just put it on and I canwalk away,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (07:09):
Oh no, that's heaps easier.
That's just,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (07:12):
and go outside and playing around
out the dark and,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (07:17):
yeah.
No, that's just my personalpreference.
I like doing the offset.
It's a bit fiddly and stuff,but.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (07:24):
Yeah, I've got the offset.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (07:27):
I like the offset.
It's good.
I reckon I get more smokefrigging into it anyway, when it
comes out.
He's smoke here.
I was down the butcher the otherday and I seen some ribeye
sitting there and I'm like, Ishould get them for the smoker.
I'm thinking about throwing themon on Sunday.
Just a couple of ribeyes in thegrand final.
I get some potato bacon andstuff and put with it.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (07:48):
gonna cook the potato bake in the
smoker?

the-incoherent-podcast (07:50):
Probably not.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (07:52):
Do

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (07:53):
Could

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (07:54):
Half, half cook it, then put it
underneath and let all thedrippings go down into it.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (08:00):

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (08:02):
No, the meat.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (08:03):
So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (08:04):
I don't even wanna know what's in
the bottom of my smoker to dothat, you know?
Maybe when I get a new one, I'lllook after it a little bit on
holiday.
The one I've got's only.
Only a frigging It's a cheapone.
Hey.
Yeah, I will.
I love me smoker.
Absolutely love it.
this is more,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (08:22):
A more pressing point

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (08:23):
I'm pretty,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (08:23):
though.
You're talking about food forthe barbecue tins or stubbies?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (08:29):
I prefer stubbies.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (08:30):
Yeah.
See one of

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (08:32):
It's just better out of a glass.

He was

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (09:06):
the yeah, where, where did the
Knights and Cowboys finish?
I think they were below theWarriors, weren't they?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (09:11):
for a change.
Yeah.
Who's better?
Sean Johnson or Stacey Jones

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (09:17):
Oh,

the-incoherent-podcast (09:18):
deciding this?
She pretty well saying who thebest New Zealand player ever
was.

squadcaster-j435_1_10- (09:21):
Probably Stacy.
Stacy,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (09:23):
You reckon?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (09:24):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (09:25):
I, I really liked Sean Johnson.
What about Benji and Stacey?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (09:30):
Stacy,

the-incoherent-podcast_ (09:32):
Stacey?
Benji was pretty good.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (09:35):
were two totally different players,
though.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (09:38):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (09:38):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (09:40):
Stacey was at game controlling half
Benji could.
Yeah.
Well, Benji.
Broke a lot of cowboys hearts.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (09:51):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (09:52):
Fuck Benji.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (09:53):
Segue into our next thing.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (09:55):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (09:56):
Zach, what's your favorite grand
final?
Please tell me it's 2005.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (10:00):
Well, I've had a couple of losses, but
yeah, fifteen's definitely myfavorite one.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (10:06):
Yeah, well that's the thing.
I put that in there and I'msitting there I go.
Mine's.
Mine's probably 2001, not 97, Ilove 97, but 2001, the Knights
coming out absolutely dominatedan eel's team that broke records
all season and nobody's seen itcoming and then it was a full
comp and that's probably themain reason that's my favorite.

(10:27):
'cause you know, the Knight'swon a full comp.
Nobody can say it was half acomp and all that crap, so mine
would be 2001.
And it did make me remember howgood of a player was Ben
Kennedy.
Well, he doesn't get mentionedvery much these days, but he was
a weapon, absolute weapon.
So what's your, what's yourfavorite Grand Final Hoover?

(10:48):
That's what I thought.
When I put it down there, I'mlike, well, I know what this
would be.
2015.
Mine's 2001.
What's yours?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2025 (10:55):
I am gonna say the dogs', rabbits.
I

the-incoherent-podcast_ (10:59):
Really?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (10:59):
think it was 2014 when,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10 (11:02):
shooting.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (11:03):
we're

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (11:03):
Yeah.
Well,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (11:04):
When we're away,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (11:05):
yeah.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (11:06):
sitting at Wewa.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (11:07):
Yeah.
And then me old man rang me andsaid that the pigs were pregnant
and he didn't know why.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (11:11):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (11:11):
we

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (11:12):
When,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (11:12):
Socket first.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (11:13):
Yeah.
Broke his eye socket.
First tackle.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (11:16):
Yeah.
Was he cheekbone?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (11:19):
close

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (11:19):
Oh, cheekbone eye socket.
Pretty close.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (11:22):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (11:23):
all gonna hurt.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (11:24):
No, he is just soft.
I would've played through it.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (11:28):
Well, he did play through it.
He played

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (11:30):
I know he played through it.
I would've been, I would've beenout crying.
Don't worry.
I,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (11:34):
Hey,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (11:35):
you

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (11:35):
that.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (11:35):
from your own shadow,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (11:38):
That,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (11:38):
I didn't

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (11:39):
day I came out to watch you play
football.
I was watching a

the-incoherent-podcast_ (11:42):
knocked out first tackle.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (11:43):
was watching a whole different
person.
'cause you ran on, made onetackle and then you were off
'cause you got knocked out.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (11:50):
I didn't get knocked out.
I didn't get knocked out.
I just got rocked and theypulled me off in case they just
took me off the field in case Iwas concussed.
I'm like, I could go back outand they wouldn't let me.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (12:00):
not the

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (12:01):
thought you were playing the

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (12:01):
off in public.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (12:03):
Yeah.
I thought you were playing thewhole game.
But it wasn't even you.
It was some other

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (12:08):
That's where you need to wear your
glasses.
That's a you thing.
That's not me.
Was not me at all.
So I'll do a little bit of acatch up.
Well, Axia, so since you've beengone, Pez, Jonah, P'S been
offered as a loan option for 12months to a multitude of clubs.

(12:29):
The Raiders came up, which whenI heard that the first time, I'm
like, that'd be like perfect forhis career.
But unfortunately, they turnedhim down and since then
Parramatta has popped their headup.
The Titans have popped theirhead up and the Cowboys have
apparently popped their head upas well.
So what do you reckon CowCowboys take?

(12:50):
Jayna Pea or the other one isthat they've, seeking interest
in Matt Burton.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (12:55):
we discussed this on the phone
earlier and I'm quite a big fanof Matt Burton coming to North
Queensland.
Now everyone knows the historyof bulldogs releasing a number
six to North Queensland and howwell that went.
So I'd be quite happy to see himup in the north.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (13:16):
Yeah, we're going off that philosophy,
Fletcher Sharp's playing in thehalves for the night.
So we've got a 15 year dominancecoming up.
'cause the last time a blokefrom CES not got picked in the
night's halves was pretty good.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (13:28):
yeah.
But

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (13:29):
They've gotta play him in the half spot.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (13:31):
yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (13:32):
He'll play in the halves,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (13:34):
I don't know.
It's still big talks about pongand going,

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (13:38):
okay's popping up.
It's been doing that since he'sbeen there, to be honest.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (13:41):
well, that's the thing.
Ponga has been linked with thedogs.
GaN goes to dogs, they're gonnahave to free up their salary
cap.
So Burton goes.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (13:50):
I do like Burton coming to North
Queensland.
I don't, I don't particularlythink he will though.
I think he'll stay in Sydney.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (13:58):
I don't think there's been any
Sydney clubs with a hand upthough,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (14:02):
Uh.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (14:04):
to be fair.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (14:04):
He's only take a 12 month deal and
could potentially go to Perth,

the-incoherent-podcast_ (14:08):
There's that, there's that thing too
with players moving and that isthere gonna be a multitude of
players that do take one deal tosee what Perth's office is or

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (14:16):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (14:17):
in a couple of weeks before
November 1st, when it all kicksoff and we start seeing signings
or might.
Do a bit of thing on the mainepisodes to say what we think,
who they should pick, what theyshould do and all that.
And go through bear's stuff.
'cause it is kind of exciting.
It's good talking points.
Anyway, gotta go through and tryand find who's off contract and

(14:40):
stuff like that and try to do itproperly.
But we can go through and dothat.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (14:45):
See, they haven't really said it.
Any players that are going tothe Bear have they?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (14:49):
No.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (14:50):
No, 'cause they can't sign anyone
until November one or Novemberone is when, players are, can
get contracts for 27.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (14:58):
Yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (14:58):
So they can't actually approach any
players until November 1st,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (15:02):
a lot

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (15:02):
so there won't be.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (15:04):
said they'll go, they're willing to
test the open market this yearto see what perfs got to offer.
I'm guessing,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (15:10):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (15:10):
even

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (15:11):
That's why it may, it makes a little
bit interesting.
I know Cobo said that he'd go tothe Broncos, but.
Go back to the Broncos after heis 12 months with the Dolphins.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (15:19):
Yeah.
But it, I was reading an articleearlier that he's, he's gonna
test the market

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (15:25):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (15:26):
one.
So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (15:30):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (15:31):
and that's a good signing for Perth

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (15:35):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (15:36):
long as he is got the right coaching,
staffing goes in with the rightmentality.
I think Cobos one of themplayers, it can be great.
He just needs that.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (15:46):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (15:46):
hand.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (15:48):
Well it'll be interesting to see what
happens.
Anyway, that's what, that's whatI mean.
Like we put that onto a mainepisode as just one of the
talking points now the NR l'sover.
it's obviously easier for us totalk about NRL than anything
else.
it's what we've got in commonand then we've put our other
side sports that we talk aboutand that, but we'll, we're still
gonna do it.
We're sports podcast.
We'll.

(16:09):
the first game on Sunday will bethe New Zealand Warriors, new
South Wales Cup play, the BurlyBears Queensland Cup team.
And I'm pretty sure both teamswere pretty convincing in their
wins last week.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (16:26):
I, I was a bit surprised that the
Warriors actually got over thedragons.
I thought it was gonna be a lotcloser than what it was.
Could have went either way,really, with those two sides.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (16:37):
Yeah.
I, I think the Warriors havebeen pretty dominant, all season
though, 30 to twelve's prettydominant win.
And I think when you look at theladder, they only lost a couple
or a handful of games.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (16:53):
Yeah, they won 22 outta 26

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (16:56):
pretty convincing.
And I said on the, the episodethe other day, the, the fact
that they're in that final andthen they're playing in this
game and they've dominated thatseason, there's really good
signs of depth, for their firstgrade team.
hopefully there's more goodthings for the Warriors anyway
in the near future.
And then Burly Bears, they won22 to eight over North Devils,

(17:18):
so they, would be a convincingwin.
I didn't get time to watch thosegames last week, or I can't find
the New South Wales Cup oneanyway.
'cause they scheduled it for theexact same time that, well, an
hour before NRL could kick off,so, yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (17:34):
were minor premiers of the states, so
we're, we're in for a good game.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (17:43):
Yeah.
Well, bur Bears only lost onegame, or, sorry, lost four games
all season.
They had one draw, but, stillwon 15 games.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (17:50):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (17:51):
So, and North Devils were
thereabouts as well, so itprobably was a,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (17:57):
only finished one point behind.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (17:59):
So it, I think it's gonna be a good
game and, you know, there's acouple of, players to keep an
eye on anyway

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (18:06):
well, pretty much the warrior side,
they've got, I think it's, wellmo most of their side are NRL
players that have played in the,in the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (18:19):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (18:19):
picky, so I think he's got a big future
in the NRL, wherever he stays inNew Zealand or wherever.
Somebody in over

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2025 (18:29):
I think he's, I think he's only
contracted for next year.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (18:33):
So yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (18:35):
maybe the bears

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (18:36):
I think

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (18:36):
come swooping.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (18:37):
he's one of them live wire players
that.
A lot of teams would be keepingan eye on

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (18:44):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (18:45):
mind.
You, I, I dunno, many NRL teamswould be looking for fullback at
the moment, but

the-incoherent-podca (18:53):
Apparently the sharks are looking to move
on.
Kennedy, from what I've heard,they're looking to replace
Kennedy, so.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (18:59):
Yeah.
But they were, look, theoriginal talks of that was
Kennedy was to move on and Hineswas to go back to one.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (19:08):
Did you hear the other rumor That
DCE been seen with CraigFitzgibbon?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (19:14):
Oh yeah, that was yesterday.
He was having lunch with him.
Yeah,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (19:17):
Well, there you go.
DC in back to fullback.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (19:23):
yeah, I could see that.
Does that mean the roosterspulled their offer though?
Or did DC walk away from it?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10- (19:30):
Wouldn't be the first daily back flipped
on.

the-incoherent-podcast_ (19:33):
There's still a chance you'll back flip
and go back Manly as it is.
the other one that stands out inthe, warriors team knows Jet
Clear.
He is on the bench and 10 ofBoyds playing half that with
Luke Hanson I'm guessing he'llgo in there.
I think that's probably gonna befrom my point of view, the most
intrigued.
'cause I haven't actually got towatch check Clear Player game
this season.

(19:53):
So, I know there was one gamethere throughout the season.
He had heaps of highlights in'cause he just dominated it.
But I dunno if that's been thecase or season.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (20:03):
Yeah, I've only watched a few, a few
of him and yeah, the highlights,he does look a lot like Nathan,
but he's

the-incoherent-podcast_ (20:12):
They're brothers.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (20:13):
he's got his own flare.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (20:16):
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's the thing though.
When they, when they signsiblings and stuff like that, I
think sometimes they kind ofexpect the younger one to be
like the older one and usuallythey're two completely different
things.
Like Joey played completelydifferent to what Matty played.
They two different playerscompletely.

(20:37):
And then you got Turbo and Jakefor voyage.
Yeah, well there there's nosaying Maddie didn't either, to
be honest.
Like he has to be on something.
He's a bit, he's still quiet.
I think.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (20:51):
That some good mushrooms.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (20:53):
Some good, something.
It's all good.
I love mad.
Think it's gonna be a good game.
It'd be worth watching,especially if you're interested
in up and coming players likeFletcher Baker and, I think,
there's a few, there's a few inthere.
I don't know all their names.
I think I've heard a little bitabout Josh Rogers and it'll be
the first time that the Warriorshave won anything, I think,

(21:16):
isn't it?
Oh, well, they've won the,they've won the New South Wales
Cup Grand Final.
I think that's what they weresaying.
That's the first time they'vewon the New South Wales Cup
Grand Final.
So maybe that'll, translate intoan NRL Grand final in the
future.
But I think they're sitting in apretty good position anyway, now
on the other one, and Broncosare roosters.

(21:37):
The Roosters have not lost agame this year, but the Broncos
are the favorites.
How does that work?
Because that just throughbetting

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (21:46):
I think it could be a lot to do
the Men's Bronco side plane aswell, having that

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (21:53):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (21:53):
base already there, like half of the
core stadiums then packed out inBrisbane colors.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (22:02):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (22:03):
So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (22:05):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (22:07):
I

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (22:07):
It

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (22:07):
I,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (22:08):
it could also have something to do
with the scores they're beingputting on as well.
The Brisbane

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (22:12):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (22:13):
but you gotta

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (22:14):
like.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (22:14):
the Burly Bears team.
A lot of those players have beenwithin that Bronco system, NRLW
team, the Broncos, and then theNRL.
Yeah, I think it's a

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (22:27):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (22:27):
with supporter why they'd be

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (22:31):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (22:32):
shorter odds.
But roosters like they're goingthrough undefeated.
You can't write them off.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (22:40):
yeah.
And it's not like they don'thave any good players like Jess
s and Isabelle Kelly areridiculous.
Even Corbin Baxter's frigging.
She has a pretty good half.
Pretty sure she played originthis year, you know, and it's
not like they don't have halfdecent like forward pack

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (23:01):
They

the-incoherent-podcast (23:01):
kearney.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (23:02):
do

the-incoherent-podcast (23:02):
Strange.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (23:04):
last week's game as well, like tough
slog for the roosters last weekand sharks.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (23:11):
Yeah.
But the roosters played on thesad day, didn't they?
So the turnaround thing doesn'tmatter in this case, does it?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (23:20):
Yeah, because the.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (23:21):
Yeah.
Yeah.
But at the same time, they'realso, the Broncos are saying,
Ali Haws retiring after,especially she's been playing
for 25 years.
Like I knew who Ali Brien shortwas before there even was an
NRLW playing for Australia andstuff Queensland.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (23:39):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (23:39):
But the one that probably would
worry me the most from theBroncos is Tamika Upton.
I used to watch a lot of thenights girls when she was
playing and she's unreal becausea lot of the female version of
Crime Pap, he doesn't really,you just give her the ball and
she can make anything outta it,and she's so quick.
So yeah, I, this is gonna be agood game as well.

(24:06):
I not, I think the Roosters haveonly won one Premiership, I'm
pretty sure.
I think that's just before theKnights came in or when the
night, the year the Knights camein, they might've won it.
And the, I know the Broncos wonthe first three or four of them
though.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (24:23):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (24:24):
So yeah.
You looking forward to thisgame?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (24:28):
That's the thing.
The Knights have lost all theirplayers to Brisbane.
They're all

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (24:32):
I think that's because Ally's
going, they've just replaced hermoney with her, plus the, when
you look at the NRLW from seasonto season, players jump around a
lot because they're only signedfor 12 months and stuff that,
and whatever opportunities thatthey can get.
So it's still, it's still agrowing competition and they'll

(24:52):
start putting more restrictionsand stuff.
And I think once it goes a,fully professional route, it'll
be a lot different.
And they can police it a littlebit more.
So it's still a growingcompetition and it's not it's a
bad competition.
Like the girls games are good towatch.
There's not as much crap in itas there is in the NRL and they

(25:15):
play properly and they just geton with it, you

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (25:17):
I find it a

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (25:18):
know, and it.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10- (25:18):
flowing.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (25:20):
Yeah, that's what I mean.
it's, they, they just playproperly.
They, they're very skilled.
it's not, it's not what somepeople seem to think that it's
just crap because it's, it'snot, they, they do such a good
job and they must work so hard.
it's unbelievable.
Isabel Kelly got, the oh women'sDM the other day as well was the

(25:40):
best player, so she's been apretty good player for a very
long time.
No, I'm looking forward to it.
I think it's gonna be a goodgame, that one as well.
We'll go onto the, the main one.
Storm Broncos.
What, what do you reckon?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10- (25:57):
Broncos, if you'd asked me halfway
through the season, I had themand Penrith at the bottom,
Penrith were at the bottom,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (26:09):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (26:10):
I don't know.
MAD's done something aroundorigin time and we ended them up
and had'em fire and leading intothe finals and they're peaked at
the right time, I guess.
six weeks, Melbourne.
Not so convincing, I thinkBellamy, he's, he's had that

(26:32):
experience in that getting theboys up for finals footy and
yeah, it's gonna be a good game.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (26:41):
Yeah, I, I think it is gonna be a good
game.
And normally I'd look at Bellamyand go, well, Bellamy's been
here before, done this before,and all of this.
But then Maj Madge is won agrand final, he coached New
Zealand to a 30 nil game overAustralia.
So that's a big game.
That's not, that's not a smalltask.
And then last year's state oforigin, you had'em firing it's

(27:04):
freaking apples and orangescompared to what they've done
this year with pretty much thesame team.
So I, I don't I think as much adifference as what you think
it's gonna be.
I think Mag's gonna have'em upfor it.
And honestly, I think this gameis gonna be a very, very tight
game, a very tight game.

(27:25):
And I think it's gonna come downto mistakes

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (27:27):
You reckon?
I reckon.
I reckon it's gonna be 14 plus.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (27:33):
you reckon.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (27:34):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (27:35):
I think if the storm get out to
any sort of lead that Canberraand the Sharks have, I don't
think the Broncos will run'emdown.
I don't think that they're ateam they can run down like
that.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (27:44):
I think last week's game, Broncos,
would've taken them a lot ofeffort to come from 14 behind to
beat Penrith or Penrith for nosmall feat, they've, they've
just done a four feet and on theverge of five But.
I think the biggest factor is,yeah, I think the HARs and that

(28:08):
spine of Melbourne, if theyclick, they're one of the best
spines to ever have played thisgame.
And that's taken nothing awayfrom Brisbane spine Spying with
Reynolds there, Ben Hunt, butyeah, I don't know.
I think Melbourne's just,they've just got that class

(28:30):
about'em.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (28:32):
Yeah, well,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (28:34):
Well, Brisbane's got pain hus that
does a lot of work for him.
Pain, Huss, pat Harrigan.
you look at the storms, frontrow, second row, they do it
every single game.
Just go out there and just run,run, run.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (28:48):
Yeah.
Well, I, I look at it this waythat, you know, Hugh's Monster
obviously been there, done it alot of times.
Harry Grant.
Unbelievable player, best hookerin Australia.
Pap Hasen, probably not at hisbest'cause he is been injured,
but when you go to the Broncos,you've got Reese Walsh, who's

(29:08):
just on fire at the moment andabsolutely just killing it.
Everything goes through him.
He sets everything up.
He's, he's the main threat.
And then you've got Ben Hunt andAdam Reynolds that have been
there for a very, very long timeand are very, very experienced.
And I don't think age is gonnato bother him.

(29:29):
I know Corey Ps is the hooker,but they got Ezra to come into
the halves and then Hunt goesback to Hooker.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (29:35):
think,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (29:35):
this.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (29:36):
at nine.
I think Hunt starts at nine andma'am starts at six.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (29:40):
Well, I thought that last week, but
they did that last week and itstarted, it started, oh, it
didn't really start that well.
'cause I was 14 nil down.
But I would've went with Hunt atnine, Miam at six and Reynolds
at seven.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (29:51):
Well, they've said on the radio today
that Ezra will start.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (29:55):
Okay.
I, I didn't hear that.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (29:57):
Yeah.
I heard on the radio that VOthat they're talking.
Ezra will start.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (30:02):
But

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (30:02):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (30:03):
don't think the games won through the
middle.
The platform's gonna be set inthose middle with Has and Kao
and, I think backs and theirmatch up Xavier Coates, towers
over Mariner.
Got who's Well, it's his firstseason of NRL you're playing in

(30:27):
a grand final will.
Warrick Towers over him.
So you got that.
But then I'll look at Shi Masakiand ka stags against.
How and Mimi's he's not had hisbest season this year.
Oh, he, he's been good.

(30:47):
But defensively, I've seen a lotof errors in his game.
And Shi Masaki in one of the,the form centers he's, he got
rewarded with an origin call upthis year.
But yeah, I think the game's wonin the backs.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (31:07):
I still think it'll just be a
really tight, close game, andit's just gonna come down to
mistakes and penalties.
I think that's gonna be what thedeciding thing is.
'cause as soon as the team makesa mistake, the other team's
gonna punish'em for it.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (31:21):
Harry Grant out hooker Crossfield
Xavier coach in the corner towin the game.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (31:28):
The thing

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (31:29):
No.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (31:29):
storm, the storm players are starting
to play head games as well.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (31:34):
Yeah.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (31:34):
the other day, Papa and.
Was interviewed and said, oh,Bellamy has told Monster Hughes
and Harry, we can just roam thefield, play wherever we want.
Then the other day they wereinterviewing Harry and he's
like, no, we'll, we will beplaying in our set positions
that's how we'll be staying.
And then yeah, they're just,there's just throwing it all

(31:55):
over the shop for at the moment.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (31:57):
I was listening to one of the
former storm players, I think, Ithink it was one of the former
storm players.
They were talking about, CraigBellamy and how much he loves
the Ducks and Drakes game.
if there's an opportunity to putsomeone on the bench and then
take, swap it around, you'll doit because he just loves doing
it.
He likes just fucking withpeople's heads, what about the
bench though?

(32:17):
if PS drops back to the benchand mam goes in, then you've got
Wishard and PAs who can both gointo Hooker or you know, they
can move a few things round.
So it's not we shards more autility.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (32:29):
I think it could also, yeah, it
could come down to a, a majorinjury blow too.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (32:37):
Yeah.
Joe actually really impresses mewhen he is on the field.
Alec McDonald, he, he runsaround he goes really hard.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (32:46):
So, become camika, Xavier Wilson
coming on too.
He doesn't.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (32:51):
Worst haircut in the NRL?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10- (32:52):
Willison does not back down.
and obviously

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (32:57):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (32:57):
has, Paint has

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (32:59):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (32:59):
another 80.

the-incoherent-podcas (33:01):
probably.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2025 (33:02):
I don't reckon he will.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (33:03):
I don't think you'll have another
80 in him after last week.
That's a big effort in themiddle

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (33:10):
I think, I think he does.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (33:12):
and

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (33:13):
I don't think he can take him off.
I think he needs to be on there.
See,, I'm almost a hundredpercent certain if the storm
win, Harry Grant gets the CliveChurchill.
And if Brisbane winner will bepaying ass,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (33:23):
yeah.
See I was more thinking Munsterwins it for Melbourne

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (33:29):
That's what I was gonna say, monster.
And if Brisbane win Reese.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (33:35):
I think Pain has, is just gonna be
absolutely pumped for it.
he's had a pretty good season.,He's an outside back in a front
row's body.
He's ridiculous.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (33:42):
See, he, he's, he's played 80 minutes
against the storm, but this is agrand final.
We've gotta remember, it's,gonna be a lot more physical,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (33:51):
I think all the finals games have
pretty much been their own sortof green in finals, to be
honest.
They've been pretty highintensity and stuff, and that's
the only other thing.
They've got the turnarounddifference.
Does it really make that much ofa difference when it's been a
week?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (34:04):
Not really.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (34:05):
it doesn't mean that much of a
difference when we're at thispart of the season.
You've been, november last year.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (34:12):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (34:12):
they, they carry on about the seven
day turnarounds and that, butthey're professional footballs.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (34:19):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10- (34:19):
They've, they've been

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (34:20):
Also,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (34:21):
career.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (34:23):
I don't think it's that it's still
a week.
Well, they've got an extra twodays and stuff, but that's just
two more days to think about itas well.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (34:31):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (34:31):
I'd be more, I'd be more concerned
about the fact that PatrickCarrigan hasn't played in three
weeks.
He is gonna be fit as.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (34:38):
and that's a, a good matchup in its
own GaN Ero.
Li and Carrigan both qualitylocks.
I wouldn't be.
It's surprised if either ofthose two

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (34:50):
I wouldn't be surprised if
Carrigan got the club Churchilleither, but all the teams are
going down the road of a ballplaying lock.
Neither one of these are ballplaying locks.
They're just hard running.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (35:03):
no

the-incoherent-podcast (35:03):
Carrigan could easily fit into the front
row as he does Into the, intothe lock.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (35:07):
Well Carrigan's played in the front
row before but he

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (35:11):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10- (35:11):
anymore.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (35:13):
No.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (35:14):
but yeah, I don't know.
Elise Cat, another back rowerthat could quite easily turn it
on on Sunday.
Abo and Win Club Churchill aswell.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (35:25):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (35:26):
Like

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (35:26):
Well, how many games does he play
without scoring a try?
It's very rare for him not toscore a try in the storm

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (35:34):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (35:34):
yeah, he knows how to

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (35:35):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (35:36):
that's for sure.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (35:38):
yeah.
I remember when Coats left theBroncos and I, and he was going
down to Melbourne when theBroncos weren't doing so well,
and I'm like, he's gonna be.
He's gonna be ridiculous when hegets down there.
I've coached under Craig Bellamyand all that, but yeah, will
Warrick impresses me the waythat he's just going in leaps
and bounds, to be honest.
He's a really good, good player.

(35:59):
When he, well, when he can catchthe ball, he has a bit trouble
catching the ball sometimes, butwhen he is on, he is on.
So, I know that Reynolds andHunt, they're gonna be kicking
towards war brick.
They're not gonna be kicking ittowards the cos.
So,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (36:11):
right.
But Warrick's, he's got thosecouple little drop balls he in

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (36:19):
yeah.
Well that, that, that wasprobably one of the big talking
points last week is that hedidn't, he took everything that
was thrown at him last week, soI think he's gonna be up for it.
So

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (36:30):
the boys will be around

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (36:31):
what about, what about Stefano, Corey
Jensen, Josh King.
We already said.
Yeah, good pain us is they'repretty good front rollers.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (36:43):
leaving the West Tigers going down to
Melbourne.
Best thing he could have donefor his career.
He's Out and of the best frontrowers in the game.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (36:54):
The same thing with Josh King.
I remember when Josh King washere and everyone wanted to know
what photos of Nathan Brown thatJosh King had because they kept
picking him.
And there he goes, the end ofthe storm.
And it's he is, he's a highquality front rower.
he wouldn't be outta place inthe origin or Australian teams.
it just goes to show whenplayers leave a club and they go
to another one, sometimes theyjust improve and it's just the

(37:16):
culture that does it.
But

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (37:18):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (37:18):
we haven't even talked about guitar
yet.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (37:20):
Well, Catal couldn't even, Catal
couldn't even get a run on sidefor the Warriors.
He was

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (37:25):
No.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (37:26):
bench, or not even in the side
Altogether.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (37:28):
Yeah.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (37:29):
Goes to, goes to Melbourne and he is
in there all the time unless heis injured.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (37:33):
I think the main thing that I can
point out is when you go throughthe team list, you can't really
say Annie's better than theother really.
'cause they all do their job andthey're all well coached and
they do well at it., That's whyI think it's gonna be a really
close game.
It might be high scoring, butit'll be, back and forth.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (37:52):
Yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (37:54):
It's gonna, it's gonna take something
special to win this game, Ithink.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (37:58):
Who's Melbourne gonna let kick?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (38:00):
Harry Grant's gonna get the ball from
the rut, and he is gonna justkick it across field.
Xavier Coates has score in thecorner.
And do

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (38:10):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (38:11):
the back flip and land on his head
and putting the ball down in thecorner.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (38:16):
Yeah.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (38:16):
But then who you gonna, who you
gonna have kicking it?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (38:19):
Well, he was taken out in the air, so
it was going down to the penaltytrier and Pap kicked from in
front.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2025 (38:27):
I was gonna say,'cause papa isn't
kicking that well at the moment,and Neeva is meany.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (38:32):
I, still think Nick meaning gets
the nod and kicks for Melbourneon Sunday.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (38:38):
you'd have to,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (38:40):
Yeah.
Well, they've had eight days topractice.
It's not that hard to bulk.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (38:44):
and that's the same with Brisbane.
Are you gonna, who are you gonnapick?
Reese or Reynolds

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (38:48):
if

the-incoherent-podcast (38:49):
Reynolds will do it.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (38:50):
big time games.
Reynolds,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (38:52):
I think

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2025 (38:52):
I

the-incoherent-podcast (38:52):
Reynolds does it.
I think Reynolds takes it.
It takes a little bit ofpressure off Walsh.
You can just concentrate on hisgame and don't even have to
worry about it.
Especially after last week's,couple of hiccups, Walsh was
only kicking last week to saveReynolds.
Hemi, a little bit I think ifthe kick's in front, maybe Walsh
takes it because it's in frontor button.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (39:13):
missed one there the other day, next to
the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (39:15):
I don't think I, I don't think
that you can take it offReynolds after that kick from
the sideline, to be honest.
But he just nailed it and he wasjust so calm.
there's just nothing to him.
And he is been that his wholecareer.
I think, I think you give it toReynolds unless he's still
niggling.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (39:30):
coming from the rabbits, all their
tries were on the sideline.
The rabbits

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (39:35):
Yeah,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (39:35):
Alec

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (39:36):
They used to score from a lot of
kicks when he was there.
That's why they used to score.
But, he used, he, he's, heisn't, he's probably one of the
greatest ever goal kickersReynolds.
Not just the best kicker in thisteam.
He's one of the best kickers then l's ever seen.
He'd be up there with El Maery.
Joey Halligan.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (39:57):
talking of Reynolds, is this, if he
wins, is this the biggest slapSouth's face for letting him go

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (40:08):
Well, they let him go'cause they
thought he was at the end of it,so probably, yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (40:12):
is gone

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (40:13):
This is a second grand final he's
made with the Bronco since he'sleft them.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (40:16):
And potentially he's probably more
chance of, well, actually theyhad every chance to win that one
too, but they let clearly put ona clinic for 20 minutes and lost
it.
But

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (40:28):
Yep.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (40:30):
Does I know he signed a one year
contract for next year and thensaid that he'd retire, but.
He's had a couple littlekneeling injuries since then.
If he wins it on Sunday night,does he announce his retirement?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (40:45):
Uh, I don't think so.
I think it plays on next year.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (40:49):
He'll, he'll stick around, but he won't
play as many games next year.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (40:53):
Yeah, it won't be, it won't be, if
he's hurt, he will be out andtry to bring through, Duffy or
whatever.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (41:01):
Yeah.
I don't know.

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (41:03):
Duffy.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (41:05):
I, I think

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (41:05):
I still think he's got a place in
that team next year, but hecould, he could turn around and
retire.
Reynolds and Hunt both retire atthe same time after the grand
final, and that leaves a prettybig hole going forward for next
season.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (41:19):
yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (41:19):
The what does he want to come back
and,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (41:21):
but he,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (41:22):
aim for that back to back.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (41:23):
gonna, when when he retires, he'll go
into.
One of those sort of coachingpositions

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (41:32):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (41:33):
will

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (41:34):
I think that's part of his deal
with the Broncos is he goes intocoaching.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (41:37):
yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (41:38):
At the end of his crew, they're not
gonna, they're not gonna miss, Ithink they'll miss him on the
field, and it's been proven nowthe back to backs, it's a myth.
Now you can do it.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (41:47):
Yeah.
Well,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (41:48):
it's good to win one once, but you
know, once, once that door'sopened, I think, I think the
back to back thing's gonna bemore of a, more of a goal for
teams.
Now

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (41:56):
well, you can win at four in a row.

the-incoherent-podcast_ (41:59):
Penrith can win at four in row.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (42:01):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_ (42:02):
Cowboys can win it once

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (42:05):
Yeah.
We, we can, but

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (42:07):
in 20 years.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (42:09):
yeah, that's all right.
went

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (42:11):
So I was thinking about the other
day.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (42:13):
three years though.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (42:15):
Do you know the only teams in the
NRL era that haven't made an NRLgrand final at all?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (42:23):
S.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (42:24):
Yeah, that was easy.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (42:26):
Uh,

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (42:27):
That's it.
Every other team's played in theGrand Final since the NR L'S
inception in 98.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (42:35):
yeah.
Well,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2025 (42:36):
I think Titans are still a long
way away from being anyone.
Dolphins I could see in the nextcouple of years.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (42:43):
Yeah.
All the titans are still a long,long way from applying for an
NRL license.
To be honest,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (42:48):
Mm.

the-incoherent-podcast (42:49):
they're, they started out, when they were
built, they were a really goodteam and it's just all gone
wrong.
All of it.
And

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (42:59):
Because

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (43:00):
I dunno how you fix it.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (43:01):
all gone to the Gold Coast there and
partied.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (43:04):
I think.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (43:04):
Yeah, well, there, there's that, but
I, I think it's got a lot to dowith the board and you know,
they, they swap and changecoaches like there's no tomorrow
since John Cartwright was left.
Like even when John Cartwrightleft, there was no real reason
for him to leave.
He's still been their bestcoach.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (43:19):
Yeah, I think they need to clean out.
I

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (43:22):
I think Hannah's already started
on the Clean Out.
I think I seen the other day,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (43:26):
too

the-incoherent-podcast_ (43:26):
Reagan.
Gillard.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (43:28):
there to begin with.

the-incoherent-podcast_ (43:30):
Reagan, Campbell Gillard, he's gone,
he's gonna super league.
and there was a fair few otherones that they've told they can
look elsewhere already.
So there was about 10 or 15names.
They're really cleaning out and,you know, which is shitty timing
for'em to do it with the bearsaround the corner, like

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (43:47):
That's the thing.
They've gotta find players.

the-incoherent-podcast_ (43:50):
They've gotta find the, the players to
put into place and startbuilding, but you've got the
bears that are cashed up and cantake the best of the best.
So you're still left with, youknow, until it's a couple of
years down the road and it allsettles.
But even then, the year after,you've got p and g and

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (44:08):
Titans,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (44:08):
I expect many.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (44:09):
if they can release Brimson or
Campbell

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (44:15):
I don't think they were one of the
ones that they're looking atreleasing.

squadcaster-2be6_1_1 (44:19):
Campbell's best positions.
Full back.
Brimson.
Brim's, best positions.
Fullback.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (44:25):
Yeah, I know.
I

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (44:25):
Neither of

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (44:26):
know that.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (44:27):
play fullback.

the-incoherent-podcast_ (44:29):
Neither of them are gonna be playing
fullback anyway.
'cause you've got Kenny, so.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (44:33):
So, if I'm the Titans looking long
term, I'm probably looking atKenny there as well

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (44:40):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (44:41):
Sorry aj, but you are probably the
first name.
I'm gonna let go

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (44:45):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (44:47):
Just on age alone.
you look long term.
Kenny is young.
He's a lot like tool Peaky.
He's gonna be bloody live wire

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (44:56):
Yeah.
Well what if you move Brimson tolock Push Tina up front?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (45:01):
don't think brimson.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (45:05):
Is Tina gonna stick around?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (45:07):
Well, that's the other thing

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (45:09):
I think, I think you will.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (45:10):
now that Hannah's there,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (45:13):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (45:14):
yeah, there was a lot of talk of him
moving on.

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (45:18):
That's the thing though.
You've got, you've got the beerscoming in.
You've got, the Rugby 360.
So any decent players who, Iwas, I was looking today that Ja
Gray's been offered, two and ahalf million dollars to go to
that Rugby 360 and he's offcontract to go and do it.
That's big money to be throwing,but.

(45:41):
It's gonna be, it's gonna bevery hard because, you know,
both the beers and that they'rewant to be successful.
The Titans don't really have aproven track record of doing
anything,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (45:51):
well, that's the thing, the titans
gotta rebuild after the season.
They've just had how

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (45:56):
Yeah,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (45:57):
how many players are gonna say,
yeah, right.
I'm gonna, I want to go play forthe Titans.
Now

the-incoherent-podcast (46:01):
probably none of them.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (46:02):
we've a, we've them doing a massive
clean out and where theyfinished on the ladder.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (46:08):
It needed to happen.
and it probably should havehappened a couple of years ago,
not this year, but that's where,the teams like the Broncos and
the Panthers, they're good atshedding that dead wood.
Even the roosters are good atit.
Do you know, like they wentthrough a period there where the
knight would pick up all theirones that they were shedding.
They were decent players, theywere playing origin and stuff.

(46:29):
You get Pierce gear wearer andall that, just'cause they're
like, all right, they're gettingto this point in their career.
They move them on and bring thenext one in and they, they
replace it and it keeps goinglike that, the roosters have
kind of stuttered where they areat the moment.
They've been stuck in that sortof around eighth position for a

(46:49):
few years now, where theyhaven't kicked on with it.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (46:52):
were also back to be right down the
bottom of the Raiders this year,and they both played finals
football,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (46:59):
Yeah, yeah.
Alright.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (47:01):
They both deser, they both deserved
to be in there as well.
I reckon

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (47:04):
I must say though, with the, dally
EMS the other night, I wasactually pretty happy with all
them.
I couldn't argue any of themthis year, to be honest.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10 (47:13):
backhand.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (47:14):
Like,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (47:14):
If the only one I didn't,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (47:16):
is it Ricky Stewart?

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (47:17):
no, the only one I didn't agree with
was probably Cleary winning andhalf back of the year., I think
Q Guitar was more consistent.
Cleary can't take it away fromCleary.
He, he turned that Penrith sidearound the back half of the
season, but yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (47:34):
Yeah,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (47:34):
But then again, if Luke Medcalf
didn't injure himself, would hehave been the half back?

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (47:42):
maybe.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (47:43):
Yeah,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (47:43):
Because he was leading the deli s and

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (47:46):
Yeah.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (47:46):
missed 17 rounds.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (47:49):
17 rounds is a lot to make that
call though.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (47:52):
Well, he was, he was in front by, I
think it was 12 points

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (47:58):
Yeah.
Yeah.
And that's.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (48:00):
10.
After 10 rounds.

the-incoherent-podcast_1 (48:01):
That's the only thing that kinda lets
him down is that he's had acouple of seasons now where he
is injured,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (48:05):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (48:06):
and they're not small injuries and
that's gonna be difficult withthe Warriors going forward.
I don't think Tanna Boyd did toobad of a job.
I think people ba him from histime at the Titans.
I think he's still a decentlittle player.
He's got a really good kickinggame on him on his day.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (48:26):
He has got a good kicking game on
him, I would've gave Jet Clearya run at the end of the season,
really

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (48:31):
Oh yeah.
A hundred percent.
A hundred percent.
But

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (48:34):
worst

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (48:34):
he,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (48:35):
They

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (48:35):
I dunno,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (48:36):
weren't dropping outta the eight, the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (48:38):
I dunno what his contract's I
dunno if he's on a developmentdeal or there is rules around
bringing people in and stuff.
I think that's why, when Strangewent down the Canberra game.
That's why So song come in andplayed five eight was around
rules.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (48:52):
Mm.
Well, he is only got two moreseasons with him, so they got a
bloody either next season or theseason after.
Really.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (48:59):
I think he plays first grade next
year.
I think check Cleary, it won'tbe at the start of the season,
but through the season I thinkyou'll end up there.
Or on the bench or thereabouts.
You don't, you don't want to,Hey.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (49:12):
still gonna have Metcalf when he fit

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (49:16):
And Chanel,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (49:17):
But

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (49:17):
yeah, he got Medcalf and Chanel

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (49:19):
and Tam signed on as well.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (49:22):
another

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (49:22):
No, I think,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (49:23):
Yeah, he

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (49:24):
did they sign in?

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (49:25):
he signed for another year.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (49:26):
So I know I think Jet Cleary's
there about not far off havingthat conversation, but.
Yeah.
I think when he comes in,there's gonna be a lot of
pressure on his shouldersbecause of his last name.
And I think other, the rules mayhave held him out, but I think

(49:47):
Warriors would've also looked atthat as well and thought, yeah,
let's just just hold him back alittle bit.
Keep him out of the limelightand just

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (49:58):
it would.
It would've been a big arc,frame in this season, but

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (50:03):
just about when Metcalf got injured,
he had clear he had thatblinder.
I would imagine he would've beentalked about, but I.

the-incoherent-podcast_ (50:13):
Webster had come from the Penrith system
and would've been like, he wasclose with Ivan, so he'd know
Jet anyway.
I know, I know that.
But what I mean is he would've,he'd, he'd be close to his
family and that he'd know Jetreally well, like even outside
of football.
So he probably knows what's bestfor him.
And at the moment I would bealmost resigning Webster.

(50:35):
I'd be extending his contract'cause he has done such a good
job.
Otherwise, it, it's a prettyproven track record.
You do well at the Warriors andsomeone else comes sniffing
around and they jump ship.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (50:45):
Well that's the thing.
He's the only coach reallythat's kept him up there the
last couple of years.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (50:51):
Yeah, well, Todd Peyton was there and
they threw everything at him tokeep him there and he just
didn't wanna stay there.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (50:55):
Hmm.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (50:56):
Ivan got up and went to the Penrith
like pretty quickly.
You know, they've gotta try andhold onto these coaches.
They need a Craig Bellamy typecoach there.
It's gonna be, I'm gonna be,I'll be dreaming for that cold
once summer hits.
I've been getting these hot days

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (51:11):
sheriff wanted to come back to some
tropical country up north.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (51:16):
I'll tell you what it wa it was a
pretty nice day to be playinggolf.
Nice breeze.
There was shit hitting the ballinto it, but pretty good.
I was feeling pretty goodanyway.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-0 (51:25):
doesn't matter because yours all run
along the ground anyway.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (51:28):
Yeah, I know.
And yeah, well it wasn't, it wasone of those days where, when
you play golf and you feelyou've had a bad day, you just
can't hit'em properly, andyou're I don't even wanna know
what my score is.
And then I got to the end of theday, it was better than what I
expected.
I thought I was getting 130 plusand I didn't

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (51:43):
Um,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (51:44):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (51:44):
what you mean by those kinds of days.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (51:47):
Well my, my best score, my best score
there is 114 and I've got 117today and there was a couple of
holes there where I've justmuffed a couple of chips and
rigging puts

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (51:59):
Who was score?
Who was scoring, but

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (52:01):
my watch.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (52:02):
yeah, that's right.

the-incoherent-podcast_ (52:03):
wasn't,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (52:03):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (52:04):
was keeping score, I was keeping
score.
It was all good.
I don't cheat.
I do it properly.
I don't, no, I don't see thepoint of cheating.
I'm not gonna get any better ifI cheat.
So I just do it properly.
I take me drop shots and shitsometimes.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (52:18):
would, there would've been a fair few
of those.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (52:21):
Yeah.
Well, yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (52:23):
Few submarine

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (52:25):
if you hit the ball, if you hit the
ball in golf and it doesn'tleave the tee box, that's a,
that's a free re-hit.
I found that out the other day.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (52:33):
Yeah,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (52:33):
also f, it's also first shout too,
because you don't make it passthe ladies tea

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (52:39):
Yeah, but you, you get a free, you
don't, that doesn't add to yourscore.
I found that out the other day.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-202 (52:45):
as long as it doesn't in front of
the markers.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (52:47):
we're not playing SPGA tours rules
right now.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (52:52):
No, if it doesn't, if it doesn't
leave the tee box, I, I can retee it.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-202 (52:57):
If you hit the ball and it moves,
it counts as a shot.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (53:04):
No, if I hit it and it falls off the
tee, I can put it back on thetee.
Apparently I was having a look,so,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (53:10):
That's, that's probably

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (53:11):
all right.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (53:12):
knocked it off.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (53:14):
I'm not, I'm not gonna go through
and bore everybody by askingeach of us what our predictions
are for the weekend.
'cause yours, none of yours havechanged since, since we decided

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (53:24):
Nah, the, yeah, it'd be Warriors win
the, the state champions.
Then Roosters will knockBrisbane off in the NRLW and
Storm win the NRL.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-2 (53:39):
Yep.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (53:39):
Yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (53:40):
but we already spoke about, I think
they're gonna be close games andit does go the other way, I
wouldn't be surprised at all.
But

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (53:49):
No, I'm not gonna be surprised if
the Broncos win.
I'm not gonna if the Broncoswin.
'cause I know a few Broncosupporters that are adorable and

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03 (53:55):
listen to Jonesie for the next 12
months,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (53:58):
well, it's not even Jonesy.
You know, the worst bit aboutJonesy was.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (54:01):
I've no phone reception.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10-0 (54:03):
I seen, I seen him the other day
on Facebook and he put a post upabout frigging bag and Penrith.
I've got a screenshot on myphone, I can't find it, of him
saying that he's a Penrithsupporter.
two years ago.
I've got a screenshot of himsaying how good the Panthers are
and he is a Panther supporterand everything.
I couldn't find it to put up onhis post.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (54:20):
But the funny thing is he told me
weeks ago we were going, we weregoing to pick up something with
him and he said, Broncos willmake the top four and they'll
make the grand final.
He called it weeks ago he did,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (54:34):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (54:35):
But

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03-20 (54:35):
and I said, nah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_1 (54:36):
Manchester United supporter too, I can't
take anything he says serious.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_1 (54:41):
It's not giving too much credit.
He might try to get on thepodcast three's enough.
That's where I all do.
that's our predictions anyway.
But, the New Zealand warriors bethe burly bears.
The roosters will beat theBroncos in the NRLW and the
storm to beat the Broncos in theNRL.
And our bets haven't been goingtoo well.

(55:03):
We've already, our multi'salready gone down, we've still
got two remaining as of now.
we'll see how we go anyway, andthen start again next week.
he's looking forward to theTuesday's episode.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10- (55:16):
Tuesday.
Tuesday.
Yeah.
Tuesday's good.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (55:22):

anyway, so Yeah.

both Rugby league and Cricket.
big Bash A-League.
E-P-L-N-F L's still going soheaps to talk about.

(55:43):

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (55:44):
yeah.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2025 (55:45):
T 20 World Cup's one at the moment

England won the Women's RugbyWorld Cup, the other night

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (55:51):
Yeah.

Actually, the Rams were playing,the 49 ERs and went into
overtime and stuff, so friggingwe rams, nearly won it and
frigging ran over for a one yardrush and a frigging, one of the
rookie players hit the ball outas he was going over the line.

(56:13):
So, yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (56:14):
Well,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (56:14):
too bad.
Actually.
I only got the end of it aftergolf, so

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-0 (56:17):
Wallaby

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (56:18):
one to watch.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (56:19):

other night too.
So be interesting to watch themthis week too.
See how that goes.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (56:27):
I'm gonna try and watch that'cause
I'm off, but I also wanna tryand watch the Australia Cup, so
I might be doing some, somefunny things, watching one on my
phone more than watching theother one.
I think

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (56:37):
Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (56:37):
not too much on otherwise on a
Saturday,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (56:41):
Yeah.
Well that'll be a good one.
As if Walla Beach win, thenYeah, they jump New Zealand in
the table.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (56:50):
Yeah.
In the, rugby championship.

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (56:53):
And Springbok play Argentina.
They're both rematches of lastweekend's games, but any

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (57:01):
Yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03- (57:01):
gives Argentina a bit of a touch up.
But

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (57:05):
yeah,

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-2 (57:06):
it's been a long time since
Australia's got the wood overNew Zealand in the rugby, so

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (57:13):

squadcaster-2be6_1_10-03-20 (57:54):
for the 27 World Cup.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (57:57):
yeah, I think Creighton's been
flirting with going backwardsand forwards for a while though.
'cause he, he do weird shortterm deals with the roosters.
It's always been a little bitstrange.
yeah.
Anything else?
You got anything?
Uber,

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03 (58:11):

ball on the path three.

road.

yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_ (58:55):

because they've got those newcarts where they cut out when
you go out of bounds or when yougo near the green.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10- (59:04):
It wasn't dry.

squadcaster-j435_1_10-03- (59:06):
Yeah.
Yeah.
You would've went in and youwould've went straight to the
bottom.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_10 (59:11):
No, it goes through there.
I've been through a cart throughthere before, but I didn't lose
the ball.
I frigging hit it good, actuallyhit the tree on the left and
frigging rolled back down theroad.
and frigging bode, you know, the17th, that that short one and
then you hit it short and itrolls back down the hill.
I've gone down and I'm oh yeah.
