¶ Intro / Opening
You laughed at me. Wow. Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.
¶ Welcome to the Muttly Crew
Welcome to another episode of the Muttly Crew. We're here. We're not in the game room, Bill Vibes, boys. We're in the Bacardi Rum apartment of life, of spirit. Malibu, Caribou. I'm here with Kyle and Cody. We're back. Back. It's been a minute. We're vibing. It's Origin. But it's also still Rugby League on the weekend. Buys coming at you thick and thin. Teams dismantled. But anyway, how are we doing, Kyle, Cody? How are we doing?
Ready for some... Just a normal week for the Knights, really, isn't it? No. Oh, we still have to play. And we'll still lose. And another set of halves. So, yes, you're probably correct. New fullback, though. Oh, did you pick Hastings? No. Still haven't done that, though. So, at least they've got a decent fullback this week. Let's keep picking... Fuck up, dickhead. Sorry, who are you? My name's Jack. And Catapong is a weapon, and he's going to fucking go good for Queensland, which I hate.
¶ Rugby League Round 12 Preview
But, yes, we're here to talk Rugby League round 12, baby. Round 12. But before that, a little touch on last week. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, sorry. How did your tips go last week, boys? Well, Parramatta won by a lot, pumped Newcastle. The Doggies had another famous comeback game and beat the Roosters. I got two. The Warriors won against the Dolphins. Manly beat Cowboys. Sharkies beat Storm. That was a ripper of a game. The Dragons, with a famous win against the fucking cocky Broncos.
The Raiders keep doing the damn thing, pumping the Gold Coast. And the Rabbitohs with a gritty wind have finished a round beat the Tigers. So we're just going off your online tips? Yeah. I think I got to end up with four. I got to say four. Yeah, I got two. Ouch. I got the eels. So I started off red hot and then I went roosters. Oh, no, I got all. Oh, my gosh. I got four out of eight.
¶ Tips and Results Recap
The boys here were into me last week because we didn't do the podcast. Make sure you get your tips in. Make sure you get your tips in. No, that was him on the tips. I was on mute for the bets. I put all my bets in, my tips in, everything, and then these two numbedies forgot to put their bloody tips in. So, as punishment, they only get their tip points this week. And I get tip, try, score, and. No, well, you know. No, mate. You've got your tips, so you get tip points.
As punishment. That'll make sure you put them in the next time. I don't hate it. I could have just done it how I wanted to. I didn't like how we were going to get zero. I'm like, me, you still have tips in, officially. Hey, you got your tips, so there's points for that. You just don't get your try scores and your lines. Depends how much code you hit. I don't even know what he picked. I didn't even look at what he sent me. Oh, really? Yeah, I didn't even look. You haven't even punched the data?
No. I was like, oh, we'll just leave it for that week. He was. I was like, oh, I reckon still do tips. I'll have to give you an update after this week, because I'm not punching it in now. But, yeah, I got four out of eight. I ended up going Rabideaus, Raiders. I went Knights. New Zealand. Just to give you an update, boys, because we didn't get an epi in last week. Bit of a comeback.
Carter made – he's made some headway here, and I wonder if that week off is going to crush you because the week before, this bloke went six out of eight with trial scorers. Isn't that the one we were talking about? Nah. Oh, he went another big one? He's gone 10 out of his last 16. Because he had a few, scored a fair few points. So he got seven points the week before on four out of eight. Because he hit a couple of back rows, didn't he? Yeah. And then Dylan Egan.
And then the week just before, he got 10 points on tri-scorers. Oh, on a tear. New high score. New high score for tri-scorers in a week. Freaky Friday. Ever since me and him took about four or five of the same tri-scorers, I've been shithouse and he's been killing it. He took me power. Now, here's a one for you. So the week before, right, Carter won the round with 13 points. Nine of those. Oh, I see what I did there. Nine of those try scorer points. Holy shit. He got one tip right.
He got one tip right and won the round. That was gross. That was round 10. I did real well. I got two head-to-head, none on the line, and five had five try scorers, or five points in the try scorers. Cody, you were just average on everything, three, three, and four. So minus last week at this stage, I'll plug that all in. So at the end of round 10, Coyote, you and I were tied on 119. Tied.
¶ The Betting Landscape
And Carter made up a fair bit away, and he's on 109. He's only 10 behind. Oh, wow. He has been climbing. He's got 20 behind a few weeks ago. Well, you've probably just lost ground after last week. I got four. I beat you. So I caught two points on you. If you only got two out of four. That's true. No, I reckon I got three. I got four. Because I'm pretty sure I tipped the Warriors. I'll check it. I can check. As a matter of fact, I'm here. I took the Knights. Wrong.
I took the Bulldogs. Right. Roosters line. Not two, mate. You got two. What the fuck happened there? Because I know I got the Eels tip because I was going to tip the Eels, but I didn't actually get the tip in in time. Let's have a look, mate. So I went. Yeah, you didn't get the tip in that first game. You tip Raiders. What about the Warriors? Did I tip the Warriors? No, I tip the Dolphins. You tip the Raiders. You got one. No, I don't tip the Raiders. I tip the Dolphins. No.
But the Warriors won. Yeah, that's why it's an X. You tip the Dolphins. I did tip the Dolphins. You said none. So I feel like you only get one. Were you even going to tip Parramatta? Yeah, fucking hope. Oh, there's no proof of it. There's no proof. There we go. Because I was driving. There's no proof. You get one. No, I was driving. Your tip is not in. Mate, I was on Lomax for two. I was taking fucking Parramatta, brother. It was against the fucking Knights.
Well, I went Knights-Knights-Ponger. Zero points. Game one. I went Bulldogs-Roosters-Jerry. Four points. Four points. What's Jerry's score? Four. I went Warriors, Warriors, Capewell, four points. Cowboys, Cowboys, Nanai. Capewell, one point he was playing center. I said full points, dickhead, not four points. Well, speak with your mouth open. Yeah, sorry, I'm trying to chew. Put your teeth in. I went Cowboys, Cowboys, Nanai. That was wrong.
Storm, Storm, Coates. Oh, damn. What was the line on that one? Zero. Fucking shit ass. I've got Coates. I've got Coates. Storm the favorites. Yeah, I know. I've got Coates. Broncos, Dragons, Stags. Stags didn't score, did he? One point. Raiders, Titans, AKP. So I've got the Raiders. One point. I don't even know what the lines were, to be honest. Rabbits, Rabbits, Campbell. That'd be zero points. Rabbits, one. Oh, Rabbits, one. So there's one. Possibly two.
So I did all right. Yes, you did. Well, you're back in front. That's all we know. By a lot. By about 10 points. Yeah.
¶ Last Week’s Bets and Punishments
That's all right. Anyway. Do we do the last two weeks' worth of bets? Oh, fuck. Do we have to talk about it? Because I've been firing. Do we have to talk about it? Oh, well, when you fucking hit yours. When you hit yours. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. When you hit yours, you were over the moon. Who costs us more money? Hold on. Let me just be the media here. We both fucked up this weekend. You fucked up bigger.
Boys, boys, I'm the only one. You're not allowed to chat to me until you've won fucking two same gamers. I'm the only one that's allowed to talk here. You cost us $1,500, mate. In back-to-back. Sorry. I'm the only one that's allowed to talk here. $1,500. Cody has a little bit more of a leg to stand on because he hit a same gamer at least. And a three-legged too.
Yeah. Well, the one before that was a two-legger because I said to him, I said, I'm going back to two-leggers and then jagged one late and then fucking went banged the three-legger. And then I was giving you a chat because I'm like, I so thought I hit that Raiders same game myself, but I didn't even tip Hosking.
¶ Same Game Multis Discussion
I tipped fucking James. Strange. That's strange. Yeah, weird. Yeah, so the last week, boys, or the last two weeks, Cody, you're the last one to pop your same game cherry, and you've backed it back. And then went bang, bang. Yeah. And it's a classic Cody bet too. Warriors to win, Farnworth any time, Tabby Wafido any time. And what, they both scored the last eight minutes? Fucking hell. Well, see, I looked at one, and it was already plugged in as Warriors, Metcalf, Herbie.
And then I went, Metcalf's not going to score again. It's going to be Herbie. It's going to be the Hammer. and it didn't even click. And then when I was looking at it back, I was like, oh, who have I got? And then I went, what have I done here? And then it was 10-0 and I'm like, I need two tries here, but if they score them both and kick the goal, then I lose the bet.
And then it got out there and I was like, oh, come on. And then I was like, if they score in like the last 30 seconds here to fuck my bet, I'm going to be spewing. Classic stuff. As I said, lower percentages. It was only a matter of time before you hit one. Outside of that, we were fucking shite. How are we sitting on that leaderboard? On the same gamers? Yeah. So you have obviously gone to the front. I think you've hit two. Me and Kyle have hit one. Still negative.
Yeah, you've hit one each. Still negative. You're still down $61.25. Jake is second down $71.25 because his one that he hit was decent. Yeah. And then I have not hit fuck all since the first game of the season, and I'm negative $107.50. Yeah. You know, and my average odds, so my average same game odds is $11.87. What's mine? $26.17. And I've brought that down in the last two weeks as well. And then Jake's just stayed on par.
He's at $22.41 on average. $26. $26. And that's two rounds of low bets as well. You're going up $35.
¶ Matchups for Round 12
But boys, the real chat. The real chat here. Here we go. Carter, I've got some news for you, mate. You know how you figured it out how to do a crucial bet and then you just randomly went away from it? You haven't hit a crucial since round five. Also, I put it in the chat and no one really spoke about it. The leg that he missed was higher than the 250, so it's drinks. I was telling him in person it's a 10-pack. I noticed I didn't get any bite back in the chat, and I thought,
oh, they're just trying to save me under the bridge. I was feeding him. I heard it all. So for the new people here, there's probably none, but if you are new, the rule is if you go over $2.70. We bumped it up. Yeah, we bumped it up to $2.70. We allowed the $2.70 mark. I'm lucky it was even higher than that when I started chirping, because I still thought it was $2.50.
Nah, $2.70. But so if you take someone for a crucial bet, which is meant to be a lock, and they're over 270 and they don't get up, it's a six-pack. But if they don't get up and they cost the multi, it's a 10-pack. And that's exactly what's happened this weekend, Carter. I picked a fucking drink bloke who had his worst game all the fuck in the year. Dude, the whole team didn't even look like it scored. That was the worst part of it.
So, just for reference, just to check back, yours truly went marky mark. Any time on the first night, $2.25, absolutely gold. I reckon you should get more than $2.25 for that because that was more than just a try. He scored two. Yes, you're right. He did score two. The second one was a ripper. Cody lands Herbie Farnworth at $2.47, and it all went to shit on Scott Drinkbloke at $2.94. When you put it in, I went, that's one of his better ones.
Normally when it's like, yes, we've hit, now who do you need? And you're like, Spendin' Lenu or something stupid. Jackson Purdue, one, two, three. So that would have been our biggest crucial two, $16.33. Oosh. Cost the boy is $400 and... About $490. $490. Yep. And if you think that's bad... I feel very vindicated. Just to... Not to dampen you here, but that's the second time you've let us down. Yeah. The last time you took Zach Lomax against... Who are the fuck?
That was shit. But then the big one, boys... Big one was, it was all set up. Kyle went against the rules. He put a 10-pack on the line, but he was fucking locked it in. He locked in the boy playing for his origin jersey, Zach Lomax to score a fucking double against Newcastle. And he shitted it in. When I seen it and he goes, sweet them up. And I was like, why the fuck is Zach Lomax paying that much? And then I looked again. I was like, oh, for fucking two or more, the big dog.
It wasn't even my game. I was like, I'm taking it. He risked it for the 10-pack. He was that fucking short. Oh, yeah, true. And he banged it. I was like, Kyle, you're... on. I was so confident about mine too. But then after we lost the crucial because of me, I'm like, and I said it as I saw, as I saw Cody's big buck, I'm like, Payne Haas is the worst fucking bet here. I was with you actually for a bit. And then I realized that the Raiders were
worse than Gold Coast. I'm like, Zach Hosking at $3.45 is a great fucking shout. Oh yeah. Back in the starting side. Yeah. That's why his price would have been boosted up that little bit because he's been playing on the bench lately. And I don't know if you saw it, but if you saw Payne Haas at last five minutes. Fuck me. Gartho stopped him one-on-one. Oh, really? Didn't see it. Yeah, bro. One-on-one. He just, instead of going, you know how every other time he's tried to go around the fullback?
This one he just went up. Straight down to Gartho, I'll just go over him. Yeah. And Gartho tackled him and stripped the ball. Fuck. Well. He was only like 45 points with the last five minutes to go on Supercoach. And then two plays, he went up to fucking 85. So we were one leg off banging. That was, that was, so that was paying $94.66. Basically just missed out on $1,500. It was like $1,450.
So Kyle and I, I can't remember if I've discussed it with Jake, but Kyle and I have discussed this before, and we were going to do it one sneaky night too without Jake knowing. But I'm thinking on ones like that. No cash outs. Cash out, take half that and put the other half on the last one to score. Yours was the second one though. I think we could only cash out for $50 or something, wasn't it? I don't think. Oh, yeah. Okay. Well, yeah. When it's like the two waiting for the third.
I said, because we said it before, we're like, at least we get some money though. Yeah. And then obviously if the third one scores. You're filthy. You're filthy. Yeah. That's why I hate it. Just got to let it ride. You don't put that one to cash out. That's why I'm like, fuck it. So, just on that, boys, that's me fourth big buck I've hit. I'm back to... I hit Cridom last week. You're back on that. Normally, you're good at Crucials, but aren't you being pretty ordinary?
No, well, I've been a bit hit and miss with the Crucials. I've hit three in my last five in the Crucials. Yeah, you have hit a bit of four. I'll give you that. We've been fucking pretty ordinary. As I said, Carter hasn't hit a Crucial since round five. You hit your Crucial last week, but before that, you hadn't hit since round six. Yeah, we've had a shocker this year. Yeah, we've been on a bit of a shit there. And this week would have fucking made us profit. I'm finally... So close.
One of us is in profit, so I'm profit on my big bucks. Well, that's why I felt good, because I was like... I hit the eighth game the week before, went bang, bang. And then I came in, went fucking bang, bang, bang. Hit me crucial. I was like, I am flying here at the moment. Let's go, let's ride this. And then, like I said, I missed out on the night's nights, whatever. But then the next two games, I was full points.
Because I've got, you know, the tip, the margin, the try score, and those next two, I was like, man, I am in some purple patch here, and then shit the bet at the back end of the week.
¶ Friday Night Showdown
Yep. Yep. Well, let's get to round 12 of the Rubber League. Five games here on the Origin first big buy round. It starts off with the top of the ladder, Doggies, up against the Fish, the Dolphins. And the Doggies here, first time they've been really tested with Origin outs. I did think it was only going to be maybe one or two, but they've got three players out of Origin, but then they've also got two big outs for injuries, plus Preston's still out too.
So they're missing a fair few. And Tupanua's been suspended too, isn't it? And Tupanua's been suspended too. So they're missing a fair few. So how do we see this game? The Dolphins are still missing. Hammer and Gilbert is out injured. Can I just quickly ask you? Of course. Are the dogs a real deal this year or? Nah, so I don't think they're premiership chances. I'm going to have to give Kyle, he's been in the card and I think that's locked in. I'll give him that.
I'm spewing I got that tip wrong because I picked them second they picked them first so I'm so stupid, how dare I only put them in second they'll drop back over sorry to period me I was going to mention though before I did start the games before I started the games how good is it to see how's it good to see the Warriors the Raiders keep us winning get the team get the team the ladder have you seen all the chirp do you see the knock on,
The knock-on. Tour versus Sheck's knock-on. Oh, yeah, that one. Didn't see it. And, no, neither do the refs. And everyone's blowing up going, oh, you know, the Warriors getting calls. And they're like, are you joking? They've done nothing but get the stiff end of the stick the last, what, five years. They get one call go their way and everyone's like, oh, the refs, the refs. Oh, yeah, no. The ladder's good. Come off it. So good to see the Warriors raise.
Keep winning games. Playing well. The dog is up there, I guess, is good. Have a look. And then just the clump of teams in the middle. It's fucking red hot. The Warriors, sitting in second, plus minus of like five. Five. Fucking nuts. The Dolphins, sitting in 14th, have a plus minus of like nine. Six. Six. They've got a better plus minus in 14th than the Warriors do in second. That's so good to see.
And for these teams, the Warriors, the Raiders, they're going to lose maybe one or two players over Origins. So it's time for them to kick on and lock in those positions. It's going to be wild to see. But yeah, Bulldogs, Dolphins. I think the Dolphins, I think the Dogs will still be too good. I think they've still got their halves, their fullback, their hookups. They've still got their spine. What's the line in this one? Eight and a half.
Yeah, so I think the Bulldogs will still be too good, and I think they will cover that line, because I just don't think the Dolphins are showing enough, in my opinion. They like to say that it's the system, and they're a system team and, you know, next man up. So this is really going to test it.
They have looked a bit, I'm not, I'm taking the Dogs to win and I'm taking the Dolphins to cover the eight and a half start only because Blake Taft's playing at centre and I don't know, I don't know if I like that. And I don't know what side he's going to be playing. He's probably going to be playing the right side. And that's marked up against Herbie. Ugh. Nope. Yes. Yes. Herbie's left. Herbie's got a fun time. Yeah, because Jerry will stay left.
So... And like Jake Averillo is no stranger to the fullback jersey. I thought they'd put Averillo center and put Taft at fullback. I felt like that was... Averillo plays for the Dolphins, brother. He used to play for the Dolphins. What am I talking about? Taft plays for the Dogs. Averillo plays for the Dolphins. Who's the other one? Don't know. Oh, not yet. I'm confused. Don't mind. I'll take it back.
But yeah, so give me the dogs. I'll take the dogs, dolphins, and I reckon big Villy, Villy, Villy, Villy kick out. Any time for two points, please and thank you. I'm going to jump on Bertrand's score again. Two weeks in a row, two points in my super coach team. Yes, Bertrand, baby. So, hold on, who are you tipping? Bulldogs, Bulldogs. No, Bulldogs, Bulldogs, Bertrand. Fuck, I hate the dogs. I'm going against the grain. Dolphins head to head? That's not a bad shout, really. I'm going dolphins.
Dolphins I'm going to stick with Herbie I just reckon I know the Bulldogs are going to you know they still got Burton and they still got the spine like I said and the, Dolphins are down the hammer but Katoa's just been playing so good I like him and he'll like link up with, Herbie I just think if they can get one yeah yeah this is it like this is this is where they need to step up and take their opportunity and go we're worse
than a depleted dog side here I think Cried and Kraz is a big, those two. It's only a month ago that this Dolphins team destroyed the storm. So it's in them. What's your same game like big codes? What's your vibe? That's well timed from you, Cody. Yeah, I've nailed that. But I'm pretty sure I've just gone a sneaky little two-legger here. I've gone one from each. Oh, okay. He's got one of his two boys, I reckon.
I've gone the old left side, strong side. I've gone Bronson's Jerry into Herbie Farmworth anytime. That's it. It's a sneaky little two-legger. It's only paying little numbers. Paying itself $5. I've got to look because every time it sends a pile, it sends a fucking $46. I don't know what you're laughing at. He's hitting them. What are you doing? Hey, ever since I changed my tactic, I've hit one a week. I've averaged one a week since I changed my tactic.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. So, Herbie Farmworth, Bronson Jerry, $6.75.
¶ Saturday’s Matchups
Beautiful. Let's get to Friday night, baby. And we've got the clash of the Parramatta Seals against the Manly Seagulls. The Parramatta Seals. This game, it's going to be interesting. Parramatta played really good last week, but they're missing their two big dogs, Moses and Lomax. And we've seen without those two, they look like the Waterspoon team. So, it's going to be interesting. Up against Manly, they do lose their captain, halfback DCE, and also Jake Trevojevic is out because of HIA.
But they do still have Mr. Turbo in their team because he's not making Origins. This is interesting. This is probably the easiest game of the round. Seagulls, Seagulls. Manly 13+. But I reckon Iongi is going to get a try. I think that's more of a hopeful thing for Supercoach. Oh, shit. Yeah, I'm with you because, like, yeah, is it Jake Arthur? Yeah. Jake Arthur comes in at halfback. Didn't he get dropped by the eels? Yeah. Yeah. So he's going to have something.
He might have a little bit of a chip on his shoulder there. So the thing, like, for me... Oh, I just went so blank just then. Holy shit. Dorito rush. Yeah. I think for me, without DC in here, it's going to mean Turbo has to do a lot more. So it's going to be interesting to see him do that. And if you can do that, I think they win easily. If Cherry Evans was carving it, I think it'd be a big loss.
But I feel like at the moment, it might almost be not a good thing, but it might just calm him down a little bit and not have Cherry there, not have that, you know, is he or isn't Let him go away. Hopefully he does a bit of a thing like with Ponga. It gives him some confidence to come back and crack on with the year. So I don't reckon it's going to be too much of a disruption, especially because, like you said, they've still got Turbo.
They've still got all their players. Ola Kawatu, he'll come back because he's only in the extended squad, so they'll release him. It'll be different, like, last year when it was the Turbo and it was Ola Kawatu. It was a bigger hit. So I reckon they'll do well. I've gone manly, manly. And I'm going to go stick with my man, Kohler. Over on the left side there. Anytime. Tea cooler. Beautiful. So just for reference, the line is six and a half points. Yes. I'm going manly, manly, easily to cover.
And I'm going to, how do I play this? How do I play this? I'm not going to. By the rules. I'm going to go Reuben Garrick. Again. Again. I need him to do something. And this is my same gamer. And I'm liking Lehigh Hopawati. I feel like without DC, they go left a lot more. with Turbo back on the team. So, Lehigh, I think, is a shoe-in to score. A shoe-in? I do like Iongi to score, too. I really like him to score without
Moses there. I think he's just got to run the ball a lot more, and he has to do something. And then my big dog, Oluquatu, he's been a bit flat. He missed the origin team, so I think he's going to come out and just be like, you know, I can still play for you boys, and I want my jersey back, and he's going to have a big game here and fucking score. So those three, we're looking at 1675 boys for my little sane gamer. That's right on, mate. I don't like that. And I might. No, I'll save it for later.
¶ Sunday Clash of Titans
Anyway, next game of the week, we get to Saturday day. I think we got two games on the Saturday. Yep, two games on the Saturday. We're going out to West. We're going out to Bathurst, the beautiful stadium. We've got the Penrith Panthers back in action up against the mighty Newcastle Knights. I'll tell you what. You've got to stop saying mighty. You said last game was easy. Are you sure this game's not the fucking easiest? I'll tell you what. This is a fucking shitslinger.
This could be fucking nil all. I'd rather go down to local Ipswich and watch A-grade. Probably better quality. This is proper Pooslinger territory, this. Pooslinger? Panthers-Panthers. They've won four years in a row. With none of their origin players. Still better than the Knights, though. Panthers. Give me Panthers to win. What's the line? Five and a half. Panthers are missing seven players. Musk. Ponger out. Swafidi out injured. Bradman Bessel gone. Bradman Papali. Greg Marzu gone.
Papa Lee didn't even get named. They're injured too. Luke Garner injured. Or is he? We don't know. He just fell off the face of the earth. He got named and then he's gone. Anyone want to give us the inside tip of what happened to Garner? That'd be lovely. This is going to be the game where I don't tip my boys, but it could be a game where we actually win, but I don't think so. Penrith will win. They'll pump us. So who are you tipping? Oh, you're tipping Panthers.
We're still not going to... Newcastle won't score more than 10 points. That's the problem. And we've changed our hearts. No, you probably will. You've got a decent fullback now. Fuck up, dickhead. Panthers, Panthers, Panthers to win And I'll go Panthers, Panthers, Alamotti I'm gonna go Is that yours?
Give me Liam Henry on the edge He's a goer Nah, nah, nah I'll take that back, Not run up against Dylan Lucas No take backsies Oh yeah, cause Dylan Lucas is injured, brother Dylan Lucas is gonna score I'm gonna tell Dylan Lucas to score Fuck, So you're going Panthers, Panthers, D-Lucas. Yes, sir. Fuck you, man. Well, you're going to go D-Lucas, weren't you? I've got D-Lucas. I've already written all mine in, mate. I'm Panthers, Panthers, D-Lucas.
Oh, a hex job. Yep. You guys will want to win. Fuck yes. He's going to be a late pull. Oh, ouch. I need another injury. Didn't he hurt his shoulder last week? He did. Yeah, but he'd be fine, mate. I've got the same gamer here. Now, I'm just, I was going to play nice and safe, but I feel like there's some value in this game. I'm going Isaac Tungo anytime. Fucking love me, Isaac. And then Dane Laurie at fullback, he just seems to step up when he plays at fullback for Penrith. He does play well.
I don't know what it is, but when you get him for $2.75, you can't say no to that, especially against this Knights outfit that have got nothing. You're not going to not get Randy Jackson's autograph. That's it. And then for me, I feel like the Knights are going to score, and the fact that Jack Cog is playing with Gamble, Cogger's on the right. Dane Gagai's on the right. They're going to go right. So give me James Schiller for $2.25 on the wing because Panthers can concede some points.
So for Isaac Tungo, Dane Laurie, and James Schiller anytime, $16. Oh, I like that. Mm. Mm. You should bang out there and run a bit of old Malay unt Malay and go the two Fletchers. That's just a little bit of a couple of Fletchers, couple of Malays. It was a tough debut, but Fletcher Hunt looked shit. Yeah, I didn't think he looked too bad. It's just that he came up against Lomax. He came up against the best aerial assault fucking person there is. Yeah, true.
No, it's Daniel Tupo, mate. Every other team would just let him catch it, make a tackle. So Lomax is like, fuck you, knees in chest, let's go. And let's get to Saturday night. And these last two games are definitely shout-outs for matches of the round. I don't know which one's better. But we've got the Roosters up against the Cronulla Sharks. Sharky's pretty much full strength, pretty nuts. Roosters have a lot of outs due to origin. Crichton, what's it, Collins? Nathie White out.
Injured. And Lenu. So that hurts a lot. That's why the Roosters are out to $3.40. That makes sense. They still do have the man. And they still do have Teddy playing. Dominic Young's backhand. Fucking good bringing for the process. That's enough for me to change my tip. Marky Mark doesn't have to catch this week. Pushes into the centers. Yeah, but I still like him at the wing. Defensively, at least. I'm going... He's a specimen, eh? I'm going Shark. Shark's the win well.
And our boy, back on form. He had a shit game last week. Cost me a lot. Brinton Nikora to score at his high. Ooh, Nikora. Oh, Nikora. Nicaraha. Yeah, look, I originally heard it in the system of Roosters Roosters, but I didn't realize we were missing Nafu White, and I don't like that. Oh, not the other seven blokes? Yeah. No, like, it's just when you read out your forward page. You're starting forwards. Holy shit. I know. Yeah, who? Makotoa and Fuchetti? Fuchetti I rate. I like Fuchetti.
Your badge, I don't know any of them except Planksteep and Naputcher. Well, I guess I know those two. The other two, never heard. There's Lossalo. Is he there? Yes. Yeah, he's all right. Is he the Garby? Yeah. He's fucking red hot. They're going to put in an effort. So, I'm going Sharks, Roosters. I don't think the Sharks will blow us out. And I'm going to go Marvin Heroddy. I don't know what his first name is. I just made that up. But it's Heroddy is his last name.
So, give me Sharks, Roosters, Heroddy. The Hottie Heroddy. He's fucking... It looks like he's been punched a few times, though. He's not that hot. He's a footy player. So, yeah, probably. Oh, man. You could have picked Kale Iroh, who is hot. Yeah, well, I'm going to... I'm going to follow through. No, because he changed his name from Kyle. It was Kyle. Now it's Kyle. Kyle's even hotter than... Yeah, I know. It's a hot Kyle. What have you got, Cody?
I'm following. I'm following. Which one? You got to go the old Sharky Sharkies. They just... They're in some form. They're hitting peak. There's fucking no pressure on fucking Hines and everything. They're just doing their thing. Bloody AFB loves this part when he comes up against, you know, teams that are meant to be better. Just fucking ripping in. He's going to have a fucking big one. Eero's back in, still scoring tries. I brought in Pacific Ocean, he won't score this week, so don't pick him.
Well, I have. I've gone Sharks, Sharks, Eero. Nice. Uh-oh. Yeah. And then I've, now there's a lot of fucking double up, triple up, fucking, you know, double-edged and fucking going on at this back end of this. So in my same game, because I've got the same game for this one, just because he's back in and I know how much Kyle hates him, I reckon Dom Young's going to get across the stripe.
And then I've gone into Kyle Iroh anytime just to keep his try scoring streak because if stone broke, you know, not broke, don't fix it. And then into Britton Nikora anytime. So Iroh, Young, Nikora. $12. That's fucking crazy. Yeah, it's pretty low, eh? But, mate, if anyone... I can't believe Iro, after scoring every single game this year, is still over $2. Yeah, but he's gonna... He's gonna stop. Stop point. Beautiful. Let's get to that. Yeah, well, give me $5 for him then. Let's get to that.
Let's get to the Sunday Arvin. I think this has to be a match of the round because it is second versus third on the ladder, which is red hot.
¶ Big Bark Predictions
Over in Auckland, New Zealand, we've got the. The Warriors up against the Durs and the Raiders. What a game this shall be. It isn't too origin-infected. Mitchell Barnett, Huddy Young out for both teams respectively, but James Fisher-Harris also suspended, I believe. So that hurts. For the Warriors, now missing their two front rowers. The blonde goatee. Jackson Ford and Bunty Afoa are their startings. Up against Corey Horsbrot,
not picked for Queensland, and Joseph Tappany. So that could be a big, big not matchup. And I think Big Red's going to have a fucking, you know, sunning up his route. No, no, he'll be docile, mate. I don't think he's going to follow up at all. I think he knew he was going to miss Origin. I think he's accepted that. And I think he's just going to go out there, have a couple of hit-ups, get some offloads out, not really hit anyone. Oh, okay.
Word has it that because he's so humble, he's actually asked Ricky if he could come off the bench. He just doesn't want that attention on him, you know what I mean? He's like, just let me come off the bench. I'll just toil away. I'll just do my job. I don't want to take any away from the boys. Oi, pin that up because let's see what happens. But good to happen. Oh, no. He's going to take someone's head off. He heard it right here. If there's a market, I'm putting money on it.
Horsburgh's going to be in the bid at some point. Anyway. What is the line for this game? Because this game's got me thinking. What would you think the line would be? Where would you set the line for this game? 0.5. 3.5. To who? Warriors. Favourites at home. Yeah. Well, it's 1.5. Oh. was off by one. Anyway, I think that is wrong. I don't know how the Raiders are underdogs. Give me the Raiders. Because New Zealand's second. I don't think they've lost a game in New Zealand
yet. Yeah, no Fisher-Harris, no Barnett, no Ford. But Metcalf will score. Ford's playing. He's in the front row. F-O-W-A-R-D. Wank. What have you got? Raiders, Raiders, Metcalf. Yep. Is it? Yep. Interesting. Big codes? Pretty sure I've done that for every time I've gone bang, bang. I've gone, yeah. Bang, bang. You know what? I'm backing them. I'm backing the boys at home. They're finally back. They've just done a three-game road trip in Australia and got three back-to-back wins.
I don't think they're going to go back to their home fans after a month and let them down. They're going to fucking put in a performance. They've been winning nitty-gritty. Like I said before, they're only plus five sitting in seconds, so they're winning them tight ones. Their last four games have been four points or less.
I reckon they're going to go over there, they're going to grind it out Metcalf's been killing it, leading the Dally M's now, He's rose to the top And I reckon Yeah, you know, those couple of Both captains, co-captains out But I reckon they're going to They're going to play well, they've been killing it And they've actually been playing consistent footy So I reckon they're going to keep it up, And I'm taking the Weewas,
The Weewas And I'm going to take Kate Well After snubbing, again, back-to-back weeks. He crossed the stripe for me last week. He is playing back row this week to the center, isn't he? Or is he still in the centers? He's still in the centers at the moment, I'm pretty sure. But, okay, if you didn't know this. It's where he's named when we made the play. No, you don't change. No, I'm not changing. He's still at center as captain.
Ooh, El Capitan. The Warriors have only lost two games this year, guys. One against Melbourne Storm, who they just can never beat. So, fair enough. Their other game was round one against the Raiders in the States. I think they're going to remember that game. They're going to show that they can beat. They did shit to bed. They did. And that's not going to happen in New Zealand. Warriors are going to win. After seeing that first game, how the Warriors played, you just go, nah. Nah.
Again, Warriors, Warriors to win. I'm going to try to chase some points here and give me Lekka Halasima to crash over, baby. Fuck, he's a big dog, yeah? He looks scary. I like him. A little youngin, eh? He's got a good name, too. Lekka Halasima. Lekka. Sounds like Kiwi. I'm surprised you could say that. I want him to Lekka. Kiwi names aren't too bad. It's the fucking other names that get me. And who's got the same game as this? To-O? Yeah, like Samoan and Tongan Island
names. Fucking fuckknuckle over here. Me, same game, a baby. And I just, I wasn't vibing and I couldn't really pick anything. So I'm like, I want to go big. So I'm going a bit, a bit, a bit etchy here. I've gone. I've been going way too low for him. So now he's really trying to counteract it. He's going way big. So I'm going to Steve WZ to crash over. Sure thing. Oh, that's lovely. Well done. Yeah, let's move on. He's taking one try scorer. I'm jumping that into Chanel
Harris-Davita at 5'8". Love the try. And I'm just going to my boy because he cost me last time. Because it worked last time. It cost me. But, you know, no front rowers. They're going to be a bit weak in the center, the Warriors. And Tom Starling's going to crash over, baby. Tommy Starling. Have a crack at the odds, Coates. Oh, 71.83. Nah. It wasn't about that much because at first I was going to go Starling and Wade Egan to go back to the hookers.
But I was like, nah, I won't do that. Watch them score. I know. And DWZ won't. Your shortest leg won't. And then I was just going to go Tom Starling and Harris Vito. I was like, eh, boring. Let's go third leg. Dallin. I think it goes up to 44 bucks or something like that, Coates. 49.74. I thought it was going to be when you were saying earlier I thought it was going to be in the 70s, 80s, 90s but then you started with DWZ and I'm like fuck, how's he counterbalanced this?
Then I was looking at another fat double just a two legger I was just going to go to Egan to Big Red or something like that I was going to go another fat forward, anyway, that's it let's get to it baby We were fucking so close, boys, last week. So close. Let's get a fucking muttly. So close between just both of them. Two grand was in our fucking grasp, and we fell and shit the bed. And Kyle could just look at us and laugh and pity us. No, I wasn't laughing, mate. I was crying.
Yes. I did the hard work. I did the hard yards. I just needed you. I fucking split the screen. All you boys had to do was lay up. Yes. And you fucking smoked it. We'll start. It was kind of like you boys were like Iongi against fucking the other week. Dylan Barrett passing the ball. He has to do his catching and score. That was a good segue, so I'm going to take it. Big fella over here pulled her pants down, pulled your pants down. All you had to do was stick it in.
Fucking stick it in. Wow. I was going to go to the segue that you mentioned Iongi, and it's going to be a big bark, and I was that close to going Iongi. And now I'm not going him. I'm going Hamoli Oluquatu. But I just want to mention that because if he scores and Oluquatu doesn't, I'm going to hurt myself. But Oluquatu back. Gamble responsibly. Oluquatu's my big bark.
¶ Crucial Bets for the Week
He's fucking going to be... I'm not going to lie. Okay, so I'm going to throw this out here. If our big bark, if you're the one that costs the big bark this week, right? And Iongi scores. And Iongi scores, that's a card. No, it's not. No. No, no. If we both hit... No, no. No, because you put it in the universe. It should increase by 10% for however many consecutive weeks it happens. No. No. So it's a 10-pack. What do you got? And then if you do it again back to back, it's two six-packs. So 12.
Well, then we... Boys, I'm just trying to ride a wave here. I'm trying to hit three in a row. Oh, cocky. All right. Mate, three in a row. And as I mentioned earlier in the Knights game when I had the same gamer, because I can only pick from this game, right? They're going right, okay? And he hasn't scored all year. So he's ready. Just doesn't have to pass the ball. And I'm covering both bases here, but I'm taking Dane Gagai anytime. $3.40. He let us down.
You know it wasn't his 300th either? It wasn't. We all backed him for his 300th, and I'm sure it was the game after. Did he score last week? No. Oh, good. He hasn't scored all year. Who's your guy? Dang, yeah, guy. Bro, he's cost us the last two weeks. Oh, okay, but it's okay when you take fucking Caleb Ponger every second week. We went in his 299th game, and we're like, oh, we thought it was, then we actually went in and gave him his 300th, and he's fucking not gone.
Yeah, well, third time's the charm, hey. Well, you're right. I knew you were too cocky for your third in a row. And I am. If Dang, yeah, guy scores, I'm shoving my dick down your throat. Respectfully. Yeah, and if Britain the quarter scores, we're fucking giving him the Eiffel Tower. We'll high-five the celebration as he cops the loss. So, homoli into Dane into Britain. Nice. Boys, this is... Brexit, $48. This is... $27.93. We've gone from one end of the scale to the other.
So, last week, we were at our tippy top, $94.66. There's no way this is our lowest. This is our lowest at $26.16. What the fuck? Yeah. How's Gaggo got like five bucks? Gaggo is $3.40, Nick Cotterar $2.85, and Hamoli $2.70. Oh, you could have put him in your fucking crucial. I should have went out. What was Iongi playing? 3.30. Yeah. Holy. Okay, let's get... That was three bucks for a fucking fullback to score. Not bad. Let's get crucial. I need to hit one, so I'm just going,
DWZ, he's scoring. He's on. He's fucked us the last couple of weeks too in our same game. I haven't touched him, mate. I haven't even looked at him. I didn't know he was back from injury. That's not what the police say. Jake's going to like this one. Iroh. Both of mine are for the same game. I do, because I traded him, but I don't like him. I need Iroh and Nikara to score for the fucking... For my same-er, for my bet, and for the crucial, and for the big buck.
Oh, we just called Drupal's dip. Toots, toots, toots. It's all in Pentagon. But yeah, I really liked Ditto's head. Hasn't scored back, hasn't scored yet since being back from injury, so he's on. Yeah, all right, we've moved on. You pair have been doing good, minding your words tonight. I've really enjoyed it. I'm not saying it, eh? You, that was just a fluke. I could tell he was really thinking about it. Kyle was really thinking about it. Okay, who's your crucial?
Oh, yeah, yeah. I know what I was saying. Yeah. Mate, as I said, love the right centers. Loving right centers at the moment. And I'm going Isaac Tungo. Oh, my God. We're all just dip, dip, dip. I mean, I know that's technically the fucking point of it. You know, pick the best out of your bets. It's like a target without Cleary. You're not fucking scoring, mate. Yeah, but Brad Schneider's there, mate. They're going right.
They're probably going to go left with Blaise Lungy. But anyway, so Isaac Tungo, KL Lero, and... Tungo has to be outside $2.70. Maybe. Well, the only one that I liked below $2.70 was James Schiller, and I'm not taking Gagai and Schiller, so fuck that. Yeah, no. So do I get an exemption from this one? Fuck yes. It was your fucking rule, mate. An exemption. Yeah, but I've only got one game. Anyway, I'm going to win anyway, so it doesn't matter.
DWZ into KL Hero into Isaac Tungo. That is paying $11.82. $11.82. Hey! Fucking bang on. Close. Beautiful. Well, that's it, boys. Get around and lock it in. Have some fun this weekend. Enjoy the rugby league. Get key for Origin, baby. We're fucking getting close. But most importantly, gamble responsibly. And we'll have our Origin Same Gamers for you later on in the week. Cut the stream. Fuck the dogs. Cut the stream. Up the dogs.
