Yeah.

I couldn't agree more.

It's much like the West Tigers in that things go wrong there where teams, clubs with genuine leadership, this would never happen.

Half this stuff would not happen.

It never would happen at Melbourne.

It never would happen at the Roosters.

Things are just Teams wanting out, teams wanting to leave mid-season, coaches being signed for six years when they're not fit to coach for one.

Mate, let's have a look at some of the teams who can win a grand final and I'll let Jamie talk about this with you because tomorrow night it's going to be the night of nights for you two.

What were your thoughts on it?

Oh, mate, I don't like it.

And I haven't spoke to anybody that does like it.

It's a situation where...

I mean, I don't know why we need the rule.

I don't know the point of it.

And all I can see it doing is, let's say you're down 26-0.

And again, this weekend, Friday night footy, Bunnies and the Roosters on the field.

Mm-hmm.

Their first ever since the joint venture began.

But, you know, I, I would point out here, Jamie, that next year they're getting Cody Nicorima, Keon Koloma Tangi, um, Luke Metcalf, if he can stay fit.

Um, you know, Connor Watson'll be there for a year, Phil Sami.

They've got a different side.

They're not gonna be anywhere near last next year.

So, uh, onwards and upwards, but Manly to win this one.

Mate, we, um, we've spoken about it a couple of times during the week, but the, uh, the thing that the Bunnies are doing with Jai Arrow is just exceptional, and that is some of the best that you get in footy.

Heading to Brizzy for the last one on Friday night, dolphins and eels.

Well, the Dolphins have made their way back into the top four.

They just need to keep winning, boys.

You've got to finish top four to win the comp.

You can't finish top eight.

You've got to finish top four.

Top eight, you know, I mean, half the teams finish in the top eight, don't they? You know, I think the Dolphins will beat Parra, but the big test will come for them next week when they've got the Roosters.

Up against the New Zealand Warriors this week at a core, is it going to be a case of the Warriors saying, not no shoes, bro?

Yes.

Now, the dirtiest car we are looking for.

Now, I have seen all of these cars.

Are you going to put your finger on it and see if there's dirt coming off it? No, no.

I know there's dirt coming off it.

I don't need to put my finger in it.

There is some really dirt.

Would you have a bite of that half-eaten burger that's in the back seat? No way.

There is a lot of space between them on the ladder, and all the tipsters seem to be predicting it's going to go one way and not the other.

Yeah, I think that, look, the Warriors now look like they'll probably finish top four.

But a top two finish, as we've discussed before, would be ideal with the final schedule for them.

I mean, they just get such wonderful support in Auckland.

And, boys...

The way it's going, they're just going to need a bigger venue to play at in Auckland.

The places, even in Sydney, people are mad for the Warriors.

Tigers vs. Dragons is, in fact, a football game that's happening 14th and 17th on the Ladder Maroon.

Yeah, you can, uh, you can do that on duty free on the way through.

Right.

Well, I'm gonna ...

I'm heading over there.

Now, this ...

Now, Warriors can play this down as, as much as they want, okay? But this is the fact.

Regardless of who they are playing, and they are playing Penrith, but they gotta keep winning.

The Broncos not going to be the- there this year.

That's exciting.

Yeah, that's a wonderful opportunity for the kids of Wagga Wagga and the Riverina, especially the young girls who have looked at the NRLW and thought, gee, I'll probably have a crack at that.

It's only getting bigger and bigger and better and better, and you'll see by the standard of it that it's getting better and better all the time, particularly among the top few teams.

So get out and have a look at it, mate.

It's a wonderful thing, NRLW.

We've had Magic Ground in Newcastle very successfully.

And when they told me it's going to Wagga Wagga, I said, that's fantastic.

All over the place.

How do you reckon it's going to go?

Yeah, look, Jamie, the poor old bunnies.

Cam Murray's now out.

The young fella too, Talis Duncan, he's out.

Now, we don't know when or if we'll see a return of Latrell Mitchell this year.

Now, Rabbitohs fans, Latrell's played 95 games in seven years for South.

So, look, regardless of what anyone thinks of him, as long as his health is...

I caught some of the news yesterday, sort of mysterious neurological stuff happening with him.

Oh, mate, this is too stressful already.

We gave our granddaughter $100 for some reason.

It was a birthday or something, and she didn't quite get it, so she gave it to the twins when they were three, and they got the scissors and cut it up.

Oh, you're kidding.

No.

So you're better to know where they are, especially if you're 18 levels up.

Yes, yes.

What a song.

How about the Sharkies against the Dolphins last week? They, um, they've got the Knights this week, uh, down at Ocean Protect Stadium.

You know, any way you cut that, mate, I...

Look, they, they won by 66 points to nil, but they were that good.

I've never been im- as impressed with, uh, Trindle as I was the other day.

Um, I'm not still convinced that the Sharkies can go all the way, but to put 66 points on the Dolphins up there, I mean, and this game against Newcastle, they're fourth and fifth.

They're on the same amount of points.

Um, I think perhaps the Sharkies have had one more boy- bye than Newcastle, and I'm gonna tip the Sharkies because this game is in Cronulla.

And getting towards this time of the year as well, you've gotta keep on keeping on, otherwise you're not gonna be playing at the end of the year.

So I feel like, uh, he knew that we were gonna talk about State of Origin too much, and, uh, he decided to just dip out for a week.

Well, mate, uh, what a night it was.

I mean, it was a late one for me.

I mean, obviously I don't drink, but... 'Cause I was at a function, and mate, you know, I just...

We were there till, till late, and it was just a wonderful result.

And even you and I speaking off air, it was Liam Martin, it was Hudson Young, and for mine it was of course Nathan Cleary.

They were the best on the field.

They take on your Bunnies at a Core.
