#2 The Round-Up: Jake makes Cody Perfect

You laughed at me. Wow. Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.

Welcome to an episode of the Motley Crue. And we're here on a beautiful Monday afternoon, evening. A bit somber outside. Rain is around. But we're here. We're smiling. We're good. We've had another cracking, well, not as good weekend of rugby league. But I'm here with Kyle and Cody. How are we doing today, lads? How many games do you reckon you watched of that rugby league? Yeah. Yeah. Kyle? Four. We're going to say four games. I watched... I hope you at least seen one. Three and a half.

I hope you at least seen one. Yeah, yeah. Being that you were at the game. Live, mate. Yeah. Sorry, what was your name? My name's Jake. And yes, how was your weekend, Kyle? What did you get up to? A few adventures? A few adventures. We literally went to the game for about 20 minutes. Oh, what? So, yeah, we went to the Vic to watch the Warriors-Roosters game. So I watched the first half of my place at halftime, went to go grab some food, watched the second half, and then we Ubered it to the game.

We're late, as usual. Didn't want to see a kickoff, don't want to break the trend. It was absolutely packed, and we just sort of, we couldn't stand on the rail, like we couldn't stand by the rails. We kept getting told to move on, and we couldn't stand there. Where were your seats? Down below the rails. So you quite easily could have gone to your seats. Probably. But like they were separated because I couldn't get any seats. By the time I booked tickets, I couldn't buy Jade.

Or what? Couldn't get two seats together. And I was like, what do you want to do? And he's like, fuck it. Dylan was like, let's just go back to the Caxton. I was like, sweet. Was it a magic round or was it just a rugby league game where we just stood and pretty much watched the whole game? It was a prelim final. It was a final. It was a Broncos Warriors game where we rocked in late because I busted my hand. It was a functional game. Yeah.

That's right. Because you split your hand. Yeah. I guess it still wasn't as full as that game was against the Cowboys, I guess. But it was pretty full though. So, because I said to him, we didn't, I think it was more full because no one got told to move on from the railing. They just let us all stand there. Yeah. Because we were dead for the whole game. I said to Dylan, I was like, because we stood near where our seats were, where our section was.

And I was like, oh, maybe we just can't stand like here. So I was like, oh, I remember when we went for the Warriors game, we were basically right behind the post. So I was like, let's just go up there. We stood there and like the usher for that section was just stood there, watched this. And I was like, yeah, sweet. We're good here. And then the security guy came over and was like, nah, nah, boys, you can't stand here. Are you lucky you got to go all the way back there or

go to your seats? Yeah. Interesting. And I was like. Okay, well, we'll just go to the Caxon. Maybe that bloke was just having an off night. No, we got moved on by three security guards. Because we kept walking around. We just walked around, and then we went over to the other side. And then we got moved on from there, and I was like, ah, okay. So you did something that I've always thought about doing, but I'm like, if I buy tickets, I should go to the game. You just watched the game of the

Caxon. Was that all right? It was great. Is it still heck? Like, do people leave and it's empty or not really? No, there was still quite a few people there. Yeah, it was good. And, like, it was enough people that it was good. So, like, you could get a decent spot. So, like, we were, like, right in front of the TV. It wasn't over there. You could still get a chair. Yeah. Yeah. And then, obviously, as the games ended, it fucking packs up.

Yeah. Oh, fuck it. But, yeah, no. Dylan and I even said, I was like, man, I'll probably save money on the ticket and just go straight to the cast. And every time there's a game, my son caught, because I thought it was better. But they have, like, they have the game on the audio and stuff like that. So, it's still. Yeah. Well, when you're inside, you can't hear it. Yeah. Because you know how like when you're, because there's obviously that delay. Yeah.

And that's what I was worried about. That's what I was worried about.

But yeah, when we were inside, because there's still people talking and it's still loud and all that sort of stuff, you don't know what's happening over at the game, over at the stadium. So yeah, it was red hot. Cody, how was your weekend? Did you get up too much? Watched much football? I watched all the football. Watched all the football and slept.

Well, sorry. I missed the first game on the Saturday and the first half of the second game because I woke up and then I just laid around for about four hours, got tired again, went back to sleep, woke up at 5.30. So I nailed that. Yeah, well done. Yeah, well done, me. Beautiful. See, I didn't see any of that. I don't think I watched any footy on the Saturday. I think I watched a little bit in the car of the Dolphins Tigers on the way to Vicky Point.

I didn't mind that. It wasn't a bad game. It was all right. It was all right, Owen. Yeah, I watched most of the first game on Saturday because we were here. We had our first game of indoor cricket on Saturday at Vicky Point. First two? No, we only ended up playing one. Oh, just one D? Yeah, just one. We just played D grade and had a pretty good red hot game. We lost by one, so it was a bit disappointing. But no, it was good fun.

No. Negative 15 in this skin? No, this one wasn't. It was a bit of a team. It was a... There was one skin who got negative one when every other skin got 30 plus.

Was it your skin? It was not my skin. No. But I feel like there was like everyone within that game sort of did something that if they just did that one little thing better, probably would have gotten us that extra one or two runs but like jake not showing up yeah probably jake not bowling another over can't believe you're in the boys this weekend fuck up dickhead i'm pretty sad right now i said the guy i was like you'd have to win i'm gonna have to

win otherwise you'll never hear the end of it i've missed i missed like my grade 10 camp my grade 12 camp because of because i was like no i'm going to my finals of social indoor soccer or social cricket and now i'm like nah i can't miss a wedding. A wedding. A wedding's a red hot and it's like a grand final of only of club outdoor cricket. This is the last time the lost one's going to be together mate. No, we're running it back. Lost red backs. This is it. No way.

Kyle already said he's won the chip. He's out. You're just lucky that he came back for the second. You're lucky I paid my rego. Run it back. Go on second grade. Second grade. But yeah. It's going to be a red hot game this Sunday. But yeah, we had our indoor game. It was a good game. We went to Nando's before. We got a whole three round of beers thanks to our tattoo. That was pretty awesome.

I thought he was going to get... Thanks to your tattoo. Well, I thought he was going to get thrown out of the fucking... I was going to get kicked out, Cody. So there was this young, like a young chick that, well, it's hard to tell our old George. I just show a bit too much leg. I was like, do you want to see my cock? No, no. He didn't say that. He did not say that. I thought about it. Fucking hell. I'm glad he didn't say that. Could you imagine?

You would have been arrested. Do you want to see me cock and then start lifting up your shorts? Yeah. Holy. Because it was actually kind of hard to tell how old she was. She could have been anywhere from like 16 to 23. Yeah. Oh, fuck. It was one of those ones that was that risky. And Jake was like, oh, do you want to pull a prank on one of your male co-workers back there? And she's like, oh, what sort of prank? And she's like, oh, he's like, oh, do you want to tell her to come out?

Tell him to come out here and I'll show him my cock. But he was like, he had already had his pants up with Nando's tattoo. He showed her tattoo and she's like, oh. I'm like, yeah, we just love Nando's. And then she got like real awkward and just walked off. And then we're like, yeah, that probably shouldn't have been done. Because that's when we were like, how old is she? And then dead set, probably like five minutes later, this dude comes over. And he was like. Are you the guy? Are you the guy?

And I'm like, oh man, we just got our food too. So I'm like. We've got a whole fucking table of food here. And he's just like, are you the guy? I'm like, I guess so. I guess so. They're like showing me. I'm like, oh sweet. Yeah. He's like, that's fucking sick, man. He's like, what do you want? And Kyle's like, can we just have the whole fridge? I'm like, no. Neck minute. And then Jade's like, oh, can we just get a round of beers? And he's like,

yeah, done. He's like, this is my last day anyway, so who cares? You couldn't have picked a better time. So thank you, Nando's Cleveland, Red Hop. And it was good to feed. Man, if that boss is listening to this, he's just going to do a lot of trouble. How do you go? Sunday was a bit tough. Day umpire, a bit sore. Decided to wear my thongs to the first game. I should never do that. Regret that. Do you wear two? Just in case he's like, blow a hole in the first one.

In case he rips a fart too loud. Yeah. He normally wears them backwards, so I'm like, oh.

I'm working on my suntan. I'm telling you this, boys. Anyway, Jake, what do you got? What do you got? Let's get in the footy. Yeah, let's talk some Rubber League. Old fucking moose knuckle over here. Fuck it. Well, yeah, let's talk some Rubber League. That's a fucking elephant wolf. Round three, Rubber League. And what a good, what a great week of Rubber League, boys. I don't know if he's had a quick look at the ladder sometime today after the round. It's fucking nice. Wait, who's second?

Who's sitting second, Jake? Yeah. Who's the only three from 3T? The only one team that's won three from Zip. Yeah, I know. Anyway. But we started off on Thursday night and we had an interesting game. We had the top of the ladder Storm beat Penrith in the grand final rematch. And it looked like they were going to run away and destroy them. But Panthers, they just, they lost their man doing a fucking swan dive in the first five minutes.

I don't know what he was doing. unlucky Cleary knocked the fuck out and it looked like Melbourne were just going to run away and put a lot of points on but then they just started playing a bit weird and a bit crazy and Penrith showed that they have the plays and the fight to be around Fanta's got a bit of ticker.

But they couldn't win it man I was hoping they did win it though because I tipped Penrith and I was like oh no way and it would have been good but no Melbourne's held on like they do with a good win and we got to Friday boys, and I'm happy but I don't know anything about this game. So Kyle, the Roosters maybe are not back. And they went down in a pretty sombre way with losing 14-6 to the Warriors. And yes, 6 points, 6. Yep.

Quick question, just straight up. Yeah. Now that you've had three opportunities to see your team play, obviously first week you gave up. You were, you know, selling fucking Roosters jersey. The second week you were beating up the people to get your jersey back. Yeah. Now your third week you sort of leveled out. Where are you sitting now? Ah, mate, in between. I'm in the middle. In between. Why? Because I know we've still got Sammy Walker coming back.

So if we can at least get, if we can be around the top eight when Sammy Walker's coming back, I reckon we're a chance of making it. How do you score 38 points against Panthers and 6 points against the Warriors? Because they changed their style of attack. They got all the big boys back and it just went a little bit different. They played more structured, which is what they've done previously. But against Penrith, they played ad-lib. They were willing to push that pass.

They weren't doing that this week. Yeah, I don't know. Sandon Smith was getting... The Warriors did a fair job on Sandon. He couldn't do much. Wasn't given a lot of space. Was he the one that got pumped by old mate? Yeah. Post-tackle celebration. Bink. Seatbelt on. Rock ya. Got absolutely leveled. We were right there. We had a couple of opportunities. Marky Mark almost scored one of the most brilliant trials I've ever seen for a bloke that's not played five games of NRL.

Just couldn't reel it in quick enough to get it down before the dead ball. Everything was really good until he had to regather the ball and he looked like he'd never played a game before in his life. And there was just a couple of other moments in that game where just we didn't take the opportunity when it was there. And we gave the Warriors too many chances and they eventually capitalized. So I did think Nafu White, again, played fucking brilliantly at the front. And got himself a meaty.

Yeah, of course, the one bloke you had in draft. I was like, oh, here we go. It's not a good start because he went out and got a try and got like 90 points. I'm like, last goal. out. Yeah. But no, I think it's, I think it's just going to be one of those type of seasons for the Chookies. Cause it's like, we do have a very young team.

Like, although we've got Chad and Teddy who are quite experienced and when you've got so many young fellas there with not a lot of game experience, you're going to have those sorts of games where like you look fucking red hot one week and then it almost looks like nothing like you've gone 5,000 steps backwards the second week.

Well, that's why I've seen someone say where they were like, you know, you get up so much for last week and you get that win where everyone was saying you know it's like the best women I've ever been a part of yeah it's hard to back that up when you're an inexperienced team. Yeah, so not dire straits. Like, it was a terrible watch. There was a lot of stuff we did. Like, the amount of times where, like, during the game, I'm like, what the fuck he's doing?

And I turned to Dylan while we were watching the game. I'm like, see, if they didn't win last week, I wouldn't be having these problems tonight, because I have expectations again.

But no, I don't know who we've got coming up. Oh, we've got the Titans, so we'll show the Knights how to verse them. No stress. Wouldn't surprise me. And then we got to the Friday showdown, Now, the 4X Derby, Derby, Broncos versus the Cowboys, and the Broncos got the job done against the Cowboys, who definitely did show a bit more fight. They won 26-16. Big Codes, were you happy with this performance? Was it dominant? Was it convincing?

I'm not... It was good. It was a good game, but I wasn't sure it was as convincing as the Broncos would have liked. The old fucking second coming of Corey Oates in the number one jersey. Holy. I told you, mate, it's the same as the Roosters. There's always got to be one bloke in the team. Yeah, and I thought it was gamut. No, you were wrong. But it's Rhys. Rhys just needs to slow down. He's trying to go 100 mile an hour. Remember last week when I fucking blew up? Because he just dropped the ball

one off the ruck front or one off the scrum. Oh, yeah, I remember that one. He fucking did it again. Just one off the scrum. Want to feed me to do it again? Oh. Again, again, again. I mean, he kicked a good 40-20. Well done. And then did nothing else the entire game. If I can give him credit, he had way more runs.

He was at least having hit ups and shit Just out of nowhere And I was like that's good And he was in there tackling early The most god awful fucking tackling technique You've ever seen But he was in there having a go Biting ankles. You've seen it coming with the Cowboys. There's a derby. I didn't realize the last four or five had been like an average of 19 points victories to the Broncos. So it had been a bit of a landslide recently.

But the Cowboys always seemed to stand up. And they got it back to level peggings there at one point. And I thought, oh, here we go. This would be the bloody... This would be the end of it. We lose to this bloody team. I tell you what, standing in the Caxon during that second half when it got to... Was it 18-all? Was that what it got back to? I think it was 18-all. 12-all, 12-all, 12-all. Was it 12-all? Yeah, yeah. Man, there was... They were...

Those fans were fucking nervous, man. The old pin drop. Yeah. Because I was like, fuck, I'd love to see the Cowboys get up here. I honestly couldn't give two fucks on who wins because I'm not a massive Cowboys fan either. But I'm like, if I can be in the castle while the Broncos lose, loving it. But yeah, like, and then Payne Huss, just unbelievable. Paddy Carrigan doing his thing. Jordan Rickey, another good game. All the boys played pretty well. But Reece Walsh, I'm just off him.

So far off him, it's not. Hopefully he gets picked at Queensland. Yeah, yeah, put him in. Over fucking Ponga too. Piece of shit. Nah, Ponga's going to New Zealand, mate. Yeah, that's why they want to offer him $2 million a season. We'll get there. We'll get to there. How good. We'll get to that piece of shit. How good was Kane Haas though? He looked incredible. He's so dirty too. He could have had two tries, but he just couldn't help himself

that first little try. He couldn't score 140 Supercoach Queensland. Imagine if he got that second try. Or the first try. Oh, he'd be up at 160 with Garrick. It'd be 170.

A center wing goal kicker And a prop He just looked like an unstoppable, That play, that one off the ruck When he just burnt through And they say, oh and he's beat the fullback No he didn't, fucking Drinkwater looked up And went, nah, No thanks, don't blame him either Did the old fucking Miller a couple of seasons ago With Ola Kawatu, where he's like, I'm backing up, backing up I'm tracking him, I'm tracking him.

But also just the offloads. Michael McGuire said he can offload. Five offloads. Fucking. He's got like 19 or something in the first three weeks. You know what? I'm so glad. Well, I'm not because he's playing for the Broncos. But he's got someone that knows how to coach him now. I'm not meaning to spray Kevi Walters. But imagine just telling him to go in and fucking rip in for as long as you can, as hard as you can.

Well, I think it was old Dan Kemp said, most of the time, you know, you come into a team like that and you think, Payne Haas, I don't have to do nothing to him. I've got to do everything to these other boys to get him on his level. Whereas he goes, nah, fuck that. You can be better. What can you be? Yeah. And he's challenging him to go to fucking bigger and better things. So even Madge with the New South Wales team last year, Payne Haas,

that was probably his best ever series for New South Wales. Brother. Could you imagine with him and the four Mollokowattus in and shit? I'm fucking looking forward to it. Fuck Turbo. Fuck which one. We don't need them. We just need 17 pain asses. Bro, I'll tell you what, though. With Gilbert and Tino and Horsbury coming back, it's going to be a good fucking battle through the middle. They should bring back the Biff just for this year. Yeah.

Just let the boys cut sick. Allow it. Yeah. Anything below the nose, play on. I just think it's scary, and I love how Michael McGuire's making it. He's letting him pain hassle. They're playing plays that pain hustles like running. The second row lines as well are just up the middle, and it's fucking. Dude, he's quick, man. Yeah, man. How quickly he got through that gap and all the cowboys were just like, what the fuck? That's a turbo line. You're meant to be slow. And he was just galloping.

He didn't even look like he was at full tilt as well. Unreal. I'm trying to stop him. Awesome. Well, let's get to Saturday. I've got a bit to say about this game because I actually watched all this game and I thoroughly enjoyed it, even though it was the Sharks. But the Sharks turned it on against the Bunnies. What are their halves? It went 27-12 and it looked like they were going to go on and get a 50 or 60 piece. Wait, did their halves still give you the ick or what? Did you get the ick,

did you? The halves in this game looked very, very jelly. Oh, wow. It's funny how the longer the season goes on, the better they'll play together. Oh, man. What? They looked so good in this game. Their tries were just freakish. So weird. It's usually like a Benjamin Button type thing. He should be really gelled at the start of the year. He's not used to a coach fucking picking and sticking with the half fairing, though. So that's what he's throwing out there.

I just think, fuck, we're going to buy this week, I reckon. But no, the Sharks, they... See, the Raptors did win the first two games, and I'm like, they still haven't versed anyone decent in an attack. I thought they were shithouse, the Sharkies. Who said that? I got them top four, mate. Damn. And yeah, the Sharks just looked a cut above the Rabdos in the first 40 minutes, first 50 minutes. I was red hot. But they kept fucking going left all fucking game. And old mate Sam Stonestreet

got a fucking cold and got stoned out there. And it really hurt me. Really hurt me. But I was sort of loving it. Could have had Miltalo in the draft and he killed it. But yeah, red hot. But I think one of the underrated players in this team is Kyler Iroh. He is a gunman. He's getting better and better and better with more confidence, playing more games. And yeah, sharks, mate. His work rate, his work ethic is just unreal. But now he's getting the attacking stats too. He's fucking breaking lines.

Well, he was getting that back in the last season. Oh, man, yeah. Well, normally, because it was his second year. Yeah. You normally get that second year syndrome where players are sort of aware of you. But like, he's just ripping. He's getting better. He's playing so good. I'm going to shout it to Nakora. Another try. Maybe we should just go on there for a week, boys. Well, what did I say last week? I said $100 on him every week.

We'll be three for three. Yeah, he went and scored fucking a week later. I thought, oh, you're a G.R. hooking.

But yeah any points nothing guys I'm good next game I wish I didn't watch this game we got to the Tigers all aboard Tiger train they're up and about beating the Redcliffe Dolphins at Cairo Stadium, and this was another interesting game the Dolphins started started hard and fast and I was like oh yes I'm on here boys I tipped right fuck you all and then the Tigers, stormed back and started playing some great rugby league happy chorus out with

the fucking turned it on eh The cluff. The tri-sist, the tri-sist, just boss, boss, boss. And the tri-sist looked like it was going nowhere too because he went short side and I thought, what the fuck are you going to do? Everyone's open side. Then he went short side again, try time. And then the old set play for the field goal. Where he goes, bing, everyone goes that way, dusk. Scoot, scoot. Scoot. Try time. Ski-ya. Good win by the Tigers and they're what, top four?

They are top four. Top four. Sitting fourth. Wowza. They're going all right, eh? Then we'll get to Sunday Best defence in the comp too. Mate, you're missing a game on the Saturday there, right? I don't know. I didn't watch any other games, mate. Oh, you don't want to touch on the school? No, Saturday night down at Seabus Super Stadium. The Gold Coast Titans got their first win of the rugby league of the season up against the team who was on the bye last week and this week, Newcastle Knights.

Fuck me dead, boys. All we had to do was play good with this game, get up 3-0, go on the bye, fucking top of the ladder nearby, and then we play like absolute shit and forget how to play. Hey, I told you losing three of our big forwards is going to hurt us. And we couldn't make any fucking... They had nothing to do with it. Did you see Ponga? Mate, we had no go forward. And without go forward, we had no cohesiveness, no room. He threw like two passes at the ground.

Because? He had like a tap on that went to no one. He had another one where he just went, meh, and threw it down at the ground. He had another one where he spiraled it at a back row of falling. He was watching Reece Walsh the night before, mate. I was going to say, he must have been hanging out with Walsh too much. He wasn't even going anywhere, though. No, I'm telling you, boys. It was poor.

I don't know what Ponga does at the Gold Coast, but I reckon that's a lot of fun at the Gold Coast because I've been to the last three games. I didn't go to this game, and we play so shit at the Gold Coast. That was just... Your attack was just disgusting. Our completion rate again, back to 67%. That was about what it was in the first round against the Tigers where we just won, where the Gold Coast were very desperate. You scored six points against probably the worst defense in the comp.

Nah, Cowboys are the worst defense. Parramatta worse. Third worse. Parramatta and Cowboys are tied for worse. Parramatta and Cowboys this year, but Titans on recent history. Of average. Well, normally if Titans, if you told me that Titans beat the Knights, I'd go, oh, okay, 30-28. Yeah. Yeah. Not fucking, what, 26-6. And we scored in like the 74th minute.

Oh, man. If you hadn't have scored a single try against that Titans team, shut her up. Shut her up. Yeah. Just fucking... Take that week off and get somewhere overseas and just relax, boys. No point. The completion rate was horrible and a kicking. It was horrible. We only had 320 kicking meters. I'll tell you what, though. If there's any sort of positives to come out of it, the two young fellas. Thomas can tackle. Thomas can tackle. Thomas can't. And who was the other fella?

The other one that came in on the other back row? Was the other back row or Locke? I'm sure there was another young fella. Oh, Thomas Cairn played because he was a very good... The other one, Frizzell and Elliott were the back row in line. No, it was the one that came off the bench. Oh, McEwen, yes. McEwen? McEwen. Maybe. McEwen, yeah. He looked like a goer. He only played 34 minutes, but it looked good. He nearly said a fucking really good try.

Down the right-hand side, he put on a bit of footwork, a bit of a fend. I thought Shaden Sharp, not the NBA. Fletcher Sharp was out. No. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. He played. He played. Yeah, he was reeled out during the week. Yeah. Because a child. No, he played. Yeah, he did. Yeah, right. Well, that was part of the reason why I thought the Knights went to shit, because they did actually change their halves, only because they had to. But no, you guys are just shit.

Yeah, it was like a Gold Coast man on holidays and shit. Really good at fucking ducking left side. You take out fucking Dylan Lucas and no Knights. Wow. Yep. Have a bye now. Rest up. And then we're back at the mighty Newcastle Stadium round five. So I reckon we'll be back on. Sunday, Arby. Oh, that's a win. Up against the stupid dogs. So let's do it. Oh, Sunday afternoon against the dogs. Let's do it. At a core. That's a terrible play. We're going to have to put something

on it next week. We're going to have to put something on it next week. Oh, and then they've got the Tigers in round six. Then the Sharkies. Righto, let's move. Let's get to round six. Five. It was supposed to be five-zero. Fucking Gold Coast Titans.

You dogs. Then we'll get to Sunday football, boys. And I did watch these games. It was very enjoyable. Well, not very. Because these two teams suck, man. Eels and dogs. What a boring game. The best part of this game was Josh Curran trying to referee when he was a player. And he got called for it. Play on, sir. Play on. But it was the doggies who just keep winning, keep doing the damn thing, and maybe proving that they are a top four team.

I highly doubt it. A couple of big plays. His old fucking Zaki Lomax, 31 runs. Fucking Toby Sexton breaks the record. A hundred and fucking 1,027 meters kicking. Most in the NRL. Ridiculous. It was a very ugly game. Got a phone call shot. The doggies bloody... Tried to let the Eels in. Tried to let the Eels in. And the Eels just could not convert. You've got a $1.2 million half in your team to step up. Are they paying him $1.2 million, though?

That's what he's worth, apparently. Whether they're paying him, that's what he's worth. They're paying him unders, brother. And he just did not stand up. He just made a crucial mistake at the end when they were on a roll.

Lomax is out there going Why the fuck have I signed with this team I come across here to win Even though he signed with them halfway through last year He then went on to make his Origin debut And Eel's got the spoon, And then couldn't back out I should have got him on the podcast then Was that Dylan? Yeah Who do I trade out? Who do I get? Jesus Christ Listen to the pod mate But no like And just and the doggies just did what they had to do.

They did. Offensively. But like, they scored three tries in the first half, second half they didn't look like. Just a penalty goal. Gross, man. I don't know. They tried to let the Eels back in, the Eels just couldn't do it, didn't have a half back. I think it's just because their natural way is to go left, but their left is very weak at this point for the doggies. Yeah. But you know, when you've got Kitter out on the right, I don't know why you can't just funnel towards the right a bit more.

Or just put him on the left. Yeah, I'd love to see Crichton doing a bit more left and right play. He's good enough for it. Just that Roman sort of fullback role? A little bit, yeah. Especially when there is no kick-out and burden and they're a bit short and a bit more... That's all right. That Bailey Haywood will get some more reps in. But that's good for them to have to win like that. I know it's only the Eels, but they don't have their normal go-to players.

So they had to find a different way to win and a different way to go about it. Yeah. But I think the dog you showed last year that they can win those tough games. But any sort of, like, it's the defense that sort of holds up for them. Because any other team or any other weaker defensive team, you probably lose to Parra. Because of the amount of mistakes they made and the amount of pressure they put on themselves. Yeah. That's why defense wins comps, mate. Yeah, that's why.

We had them in our top three. Let's get to the final round of the final game of the round. And this game was a very more attacking, point-flowing game.

What just happened? Very more. Very more. This game was a very more. Bullymore. Bullymore. What a fucking innuendo. Oh, fucking two or more. That wasn't as bad as I was expecting. Anyway, sorry. He's just looking at bills. I just got the bill from the... Well, we might as well get there. I just got the bill. No, no, no, no, no. Finish off, finish off. Anyway, Manly beat... Oh, we should have got that at the start. Manly smashed the Raiders 40-12.

And then this was also looking like it was going to be another 50, 60-piece game because Manly were just on fire. Everything they were touching was... Well, in saying that, the first 20 minutes was red hot. It looked like two top eight teams going back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. Really loved it. And then good old Red just... No, he didn't actually do that much bad. He just went off. He got sin-bended because the Raiders kept laying on the ruck

and not on time. He was also the one that ran the poor line that got the try taken off. Oh, and he shouldn't have been there. So the defense was just bang on, bang on, bang on. Manly just getting turned away, turned away, turned away. There was something like 30 tackles in there, 20, for nothing in that first 20. They had something like 70% of the ball. It was ridiculous.

And then the Raiders get it. Seb Chris hits a beautiful line, bit of a dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink, dink. And they go to red, and you have a look at him when he runs the line. He is in absolutely no man's land.

All he has to do is commit and run. He's sort of just jogging and sort of going, instead of being like, you need to look at it like you're going to be an option and think that you're getting the ball in those situations where he was like, oh, I'm just sort of running here because Fogarty's going to get it out the back and had no urgency to get through or get into the line. And just got Fogarty all caught up and got the try taken off. I'm like, if they score that try, they're up 6-0.

Then, yeah. It ends out of Manly Sales, they're gone. Yeah. And then it just turns around. and then because they had to do so much defense and they're just tired and they're gone and then like you said, they scored that 30 points in like fucking 18 minutes, I think it was. So they disallowed trial that 19th minute, Kyle. Then they got the penalty, went back up there, got a loan dropout in the next minute. Horsburgh got sent off the 21st minute and then mainly went 22nd,

27th, 29th, 32nd. Four tries. What's in five tries? Four tries in those like 10 minutes though. Yeah. And then got one just before halftime. And the first try they gave up was Garrick from Hooker. Yeah. He just went, oh, you've defended your heart out for that long, and then you just give up that. That breaks your hay. If that doesn't break you up, then fucking Bullymore. Off the bands with two tries in two minutes. And he nearly had three in fucking four. Oh, man, that was wild.

He nearly had three tries. That would have been unreal. I told you, Bullymore, hey, he's on for a season. And then Garrick, the DILF. Kid the day before. Brand new dad. Four tries in a rugby league game the next day. Red hot. And I love it. If you didn't know the context, you'd be thinking he was daddy and all those little fucking Raiders boys. He gets in there, scores his try, rocks the baby. Every try.

The first couple, like, you know, good kick from Cherry. Like, there were some real good options on them. But then the one when he just, the fourth try that he scored, when he just ran a bit of a line. Yeah, he's like, I'm fussing you guys. And then just looked at Seb Chris and just sort of brushed him off and fucking scored in the corner. I thought, that's fucking soft.

That is soft. So it was rough, but for the Raiders, I guess they sort of stopped it at the 40 points and then they scored two tries. That might show me that they are maybe still an okay team. Got your Huddy Young up. Yes, yes. My boy. Old papa. Yeah, I was a bit worried that maybe they were going to score 60 points and that means they couldn't win anything, Raiders, because they got conceded 50, but they stayed in there.

Yeah, hopefully they come last now like I picked them. good old bluff pretty short afterwards so it's going to be interesting next week to see if the Raiders, are good or bad and they're going to go up against the Cowboys who are going to be desperate so it's going to be very interesting it's going to be a wild game though righto let's fucking get to it hey let's get to our tips that was the round three of rubber league and like I said that ladder's getting

juicy already let's get to the tips oh yeah yeah oh no yeah righto yeah I just wanted to add I just wanted to note a loser for this week well we're about to go through our tips and they're going to be up there, but I think a shout out to my one and only and we'll have to lose in the week. She wanted to try something new, Cody. She wanted to see if petrol would work in a ute.

At least she realized before she turned it on, but she still did this Sunday morning before work and called me at 6.45 saying, I just put petrol in my ute. I'm like, well, I don't think you should do that, honey. She's like, no. I had to go get it towed and everything, drain. It's been a mechanical day and that's what that bill was. It's been a mechanical day. Normally all they've got to do is just drain it, flush it, and fill it. Yeah, I guess it was a Sunday and it was just rocked

up there and they had other jobs for the day. So they're like, we'll get it done, but not priority. Oh, that's gold. Leashy fucking, like you said, lease otherwise. Because, yeah, it sounds like it's pretty bad. You put petrol and diesel. They're like, don't start the car, do nothing. Yeah, no, no, because it goes through the engine. One of the biggest fuck-ups or annoying things, Cody, if this is a brand new car, you can't like, and it's automatic.

There was no way to put the car in neutral, take the handbrake off without starting the engine in these cars these days. So the fucking toll you had to pretty much... Skull drag. Yeah, onto the, onto the, the tires have pretty much gone loose. He would have, they would have had to reschedule, redo the handbrake of the mechanics today, but it was a bit of a fuck around. Fucking automatics. But yeah, so good one, Jade. And I was, I knew it was going

to happen. I was like, it's going to happen at least once. She's good at these sort of things. But I went to the petrol station just to go see if she was all right. And she legit parked this close to the fucking fuel pumps.

For those of you playing at home, really close I could barely squeeze my gut through there, it hurt Oh, good distance, There's four nozzles there The closest one was the diesel pump to her thing, The furthest one away was a premium letter The one that she used and put into her bed somehow At least you were premium And then she goes to tell me, she's like, don't even start I've also moved my car three times before I got fuel, Because at first she stopped at the high-flow truck diesel one,

and then she's like, oh, I better not go here, and then went to the wrong. I don't really know what happened because she definitely didn't want to tell me what happened. And, yeah, she's just like. She just got confuddled. Yeah. Started old panic stations. So instead of going to work and making $95 an hour on a Sunday, she made no money, and we got a bill. Red hot. That's big time in the red. Speaking of in the red. Yeah, let's go.

The money. Yeah, this is my winners. This is my winner of the week. Me. Take it away. How did you win anything? Take it away. So, I don't know if you remember this, Jake, but if you need a refresher, listen to last week's podcast. And I'm pretty sure, actually, you did mention it on Saturday night. I don't remember much Saturday night. I do remember, but not to find a detail. You know how the Titans beat the Knights, right? Yeah, it's one. We've got a ring, if you like. Yep.

Cody was going to tip the Knights. I was on the Knights, remember? And I told him, and I said something, he's like, fuck you, Jay, I'm going to Gold Coast or something. Yeah, and guess what? Why, he tipped Gold Coast. Good on him. He got a perfect week. Perfect round, baby. I was like, I've got to thank you for it. I was like, I've got eight out of eight. Perfect round. Eight out of eight, baby. Because fucking you made me fucking, you were like, oh, don't fucking tip the

Knights. You fucking talk shit about them every week. And I was like, righto, fuck you then. Titans, Tino. We're not doing any extra points for perfect rounds. No, we're not. Fucking perking round, baby, out of nowhere. Well, while we're here, do we want to just get into how this week transpired? Yeah, fucking hope. Let's do it. So, well, Cody, we'll start with you. You got eight from eight in your head to heads. Lovely. I feel like that was a car toolbox shutting up, not a knock. Yeah.

Mate, the man knows. He knows football. He knows toolboxes. I know tools. Sitting with two of them.

You went 5 of 8 on the line And you got 4 points for any time trial scorers So you got a sneaky 3 I was like fucking 3 from the first 4 I started real good on trial scorers Yeah, you got Elie Gattower, Arthurs and Eero But then went to absolute shit Like I said, Death, Taxes and Jesse Arthurs getting a meaty Yeah I done fucking well on the lines again too Yeah There was a couple, what was the Broncos? 17 and a half No, not the Broncos Sorry, the fucking Melbourne Nine and a half. Yeah.

And they were out by 10, and then fucking Panthers scored late with dogs. Yeah, I know. I was like, come on. I got full points on that. It was great. Carter, you had a great week, mate. I tipped it right again. I got five. You got four? Why is this changing so much? I got five on ESPN. You tipped Panthers, Warriors, Broncos, Sharks, Dolphins, Knights, Bulldogs, Raiders. What was different on your ESPN? I'm checking now. While he's checking, how many fucking lines did he get? He got five as well.

Oh, nice. Not bad. And he got three points for any time trial scorers. So he finished with a total of 12 for the round. What was my total? 17. That's a good round. I tipped Manley in his piano. What an idiot. And then myself, I got six for the head-to-heads. I got six out of eight. Lost on the Roosters and Raiders. How many fucking trial scorers did you get? For the line, I got five as well. We all got five for the line. Well done. Were they the same five? Possibly.

No, they weren't. No, they weren't. You and I were basically the same except for the first two games. We were different. But I got six points for any time trial scorers. I got another four for the week. Coatsy, Trindle, Taruva, and Young. Told you Trindle would score. Fucking called it. Carter, you got two out of eight for three points. So I got a total of 17 as well. Oh, I get a fucking perfect round. Yeah. It's bullshit. Get rid of this try score thing. We're vetoing it.

We did. No, because that's the only reason why I'm still in this thing. So after round three, Cody is first on 47. I'm second with 46. And Carter, you are doing really well with 35. I thought you were going to say something. That's when he's in. Oh, man. So for potential points on any time try scorers, Cody, you and I have both had a potential of 39 points for the season so far. I've got 20. You've got 14. Jake has had a potential of 33 points. So he's obviously been going a few more

outside backs. He's got a total of nine. So he's going more conservative and not winning. Do I take over just outright head to heads now? Yeah, you're first on 17. I'm on 15. Jake's on 14. Yeah. Oh, and he was winning last week. After round one, he was on seven. We were both on like four. Yeah. Unreal. Yeah. So the guy gets rugby league. I'm going to sip. Oh, man. My line fucking average must be pretty good at the moment. You're 16 overall. I'm 11 and Jake is 12.

Hello. Did you just listen to the podcast live or something, honey? Oh, she's calling up blowing up. I thought she was calling up blowing up after her absolute spray she just got for Kyle. Yeah. So that's where we're at. From Kyle? Hell, lovely. I thought I was going to fucking tear into the lead with the perfect round. You and your fucking tri-screwers. Mate. Man, I started the tri-screwers so well. When I seen I was like three or four, I was like, man, I'm going off here.

I'm having a massive round. And then they'd all just fucking come crumbling around me. Yeah, no, I had a, my. Didn't help that RTS fucking went down. Same game multis, guys. Well, yeah, sorry. Out of the first four games, everyone that had started, or everyone that played the whole game scored. It was RTS, Torrey's hammock gone. I'm like, oh, we're on here. No good. Ola Kuatu was the best-looking chance, but he still couldn't even get over there.

And I tell you what, before we get into our same game as the Crucial and the Big Bar, I did miss him last week. Oh, we're going to fucking bring him up. I am going to bring him up. I did miss him. That is my bad. But the banker. The old banker. Tell you what, he was not far off, not far off on hitting. So the banker's bet was Eli Katoa anytime, Casey McLean anytime, tick, tick, Brian To'o, Pappenhausen or Xavier Coates to score a try, tick, but Panthers head-to-head.

Idiot. Yeah. See, this is why you never throw in a head-to-head. No. So the banker just missed out on a sneaky win there. Oh, good. So the banker will be back next week with fucking 83 Broncos try scorers. Mm-hmm. But we didn't do much better, boys. We struggled this week. So we had three legs on each game. So three by eight is 24. We got seven ticks. I got two of them. Yeah. We finally had a week where all three of us went zero, had a duck egg.

And it was the last. So from Saturday night onwards, we didn't get a single tick. Yeah, we're a bit fucking shit. So it started with the Titans nights. I had that, and I had either Marjo or Schiller in the first half. Wrong. Ponga anytime. Wrong. Keanu Kinney anytime. Wrong. And then Cody with the Bulldogs and Eels. Montoya to score two or more. Wrong. Connor Tracy anytime. Wrong. Satili Tupanua anytime. Wrong. And then Jake with the Raiders Sea Eagles.

Raiders to win. Wrong. Xavier Savage anytime. Wrong. KO Weeks anytime. Wrong. Jesus Christ. Yeah, we went red hot. Jake was probably the closest to winning this week on the Roosters Warriors. In hindsight, I was really close. Hines plays for the fucking Sharks, bro. So he had Warriors to win. Right. Lear Tower anytime. Right. But Dom Young to score first, second, or third. He got stopped, dragged over the line by RTS with a fucking torn hamstring. That was like fucking late in the second half.

It still would have been the third try. It was the third try of the game, bro. Yeah. And like you, that's my boy. He keeps fighting to the death. So that really hurts because other than that, we got nothing close. Well, my Sharks Rabbitohs one, I was two out of three. Oh, you were two out of three. You did have two out of three. I had Kyle Eero first, second, or third, tick. Jamie Humphries is called A-plus with the trike, tick. Tick.

And then for some reason I went Fletcher Myers who got ruled out so he got fucking vetoed so we went raw-a-law-a-law-a-law-a-law. If I had just gone a fucking, like a Nakora or someone from the fucking Sharks like a normal person, I might have actually got a fucking ticker. And that was a $93 one. Ouch. Yep. Spewing. You're the only one that hit a crucial this week, Codes, with Happy. Can pick a crucial this year. You can. You're three out of four. Nice.

You're three in a row. He's three in a row. I'm going win-loss, win-loss at the moment. Jake, you're just shit. And then Big Bucks, Cody, you and I are both 0 for 4. Jake, he missed again this week, but he's at least hit one, I guess.

I went all in on Tupanil this week And just Thinking he was going to be in the starting side And he got put back to the bench So yeah boys, So we've got to get back to the drawing board this week Might need to have a bit of a think about How we're going to go about it Have a good stare in the mirror boys And just think about what you're doing And we've got to get some ticks up So what I have, Come to in my thoughts Is we just pick fucking Jesse Arthurs and fucking Britton Nekora every week.

Jesse Arthurs is our fucking crucial. Put 100 schmackos on him. And fucking Britton Nekora is our fucking big buck. We put 100 bucks on him and we ride it. Because right now we'd be fucking free from free. Nekora scored in the first round, didn't he? Yep. Didn't he? I'm sure I heard it today. He did. So is he three from three? And Arthurs is three from three. We would be three from three with that logic. And then throw him in a little Quinella. Yeah, he did. Laugh him.

Fuck you did hey death taxes and our boys getting over the line I don't know what games it works out to be this week but Jesse afters any time, Don't worry. I'm going to be back. I'll get us. I'll start us. I think I've got the first game up here. Yeah. I've got the first game up on Thursday. I'll get us back on the way to track. I've got a plan too. I'm going to stop. What is it? I'm double dipping, triple dipping too much. Rabideau's Panthers. Go hard.

Rabideau's Panthers. Panthers by 30. Last time. Tammy Humphrey's 8 plus. Rabideau la wa la wa. 2 plus. 3 plus. To think I had Fletcher Myers down for a hattie there at first too, didn't I? Yeah. I don't know what you were doing, man. If you went Jack White and your boy. Scored a fucking try. Well, like, oh, yeah, yeah. Anyway, that was the week that was. But, yes, we'll think about it, get back on, and get back to the positive.

Like, I still would have fucked us on the crucial. But, like, if you had taken Herbie just for one, because you're confident on him getting two, that would have got up to your crucial. What did you end up changing it to? He got Lehi Hopawati, who wasn't a part of anything for him. He was half a shout, too, when he got moved to fullback. I thought, oh, he could be on here. Bit tough, man. They get 40 points and add three tri-squares. It's a bit rough.

Yeah, how good. You also thought the Raiders were going to win. Yeah, I know. That's what sort of... I keep just picking one team each... You and Cody, man. I keep picking one team each round. Me? This week was the Raiders. I had them all on my legs. Last week it was Paramount. I had all them. The week before that was the Dragons. And they just keep losing. Oh, my fucking pick one team and then fucking load up on tri-squares of the other team. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

I still didn't even realize I did that until I was looking at it. I was like, fuck, I've done it again. Because I do them just separately. I don't do it all together. Man, it's funny. So, Ellie, Kyle's got one. I've got... So, if I'd have done my tips first and seen that I took the Sharkies, I probably would have been more inclined to take another Sharkies player. I've got three and six this week, eh? Oh, I've got the fucking Bulldogs again. Fuck me, Dad. Bulldogs, second on the ladder.

Three from three, baby. How many times have you had the Bulldogs this year, Jake? They're so losing this week. Who are they playing? Sharks. Shark Park. No, defense, brother. Defense wins it. Oi, so good stats there. Yeah, no, he's just 0-3. What? He hasn't. He's had the doggies once before and he went 0-3. So I did actually have a quick look at that this afternoon. There's not going to be a single dogs player in that. So out of the 24 same-game multis we've had, seven of them we have not hit a

leg. Four of them are held by Jake. Yeah, because I keep going one team where they're going to win and they get fucking destroyed. Yeah, but at least get... It's not even a close game to get pumped. At least get one leg. So, yeah, out of that seven, Cody, you've had two, and I've had one. At least I don't have the dragons. I'm feeling good about that.

Who's hit the most legs individually? Who? Yeah, me. I've had 10. Cody, you've hit eight. Jake's hit seven. Still pretty close for legs hit. He just hits them in doubles every week, apparently. Yeah, basically. With three two-leggers, I reckon. Would you hit one leg in the first week, and then a double, double, double? No, that would equal because you've had eight same gamers. You've had seven ticks. So three of them is a double. That's six, one, and then the other four is nothing.

That's what I mean. He's gone really hit one leg in Vegas and then he's just hit two legs in one bet each week. Yep. And zero in the other one. Fucking hell. So basically if he gets one leg early, you know he's going to hit a second one somewhere. But at least he's close to the full complete. Yeah. It'd be different if he was hitting one leg from every single one of them.

He just needs to get that third leg. People were talking about on last week's episode, that one that wears the fucking helmets. Anyway, it's a week that was. Cut the stream. Cut the stream. Cut your mother. Fuck the dogs. Up the dogs. Up the bye. Up the bye.
