Jimmy ConradHOST
... throw in the fact that we have, uh, the under 23s, and we don't know how that camp's gonna work.
Jimmy ConradHOST
We don't know if Turandot is just gonna work with the full national team, and his guys are gonna be together.
Jimmy ConradHOST
Is there gonna be a completely separate camp? Which, of course, if we knew that, this roster would probably change a bit.
Jimmy ConradHOST
But, um, if we're going with three, these are the three I think, uh, if you're going outside the World Cup team that, uh, well, Chris Brady was there, you would go with.

And this is why we don't like this play.
Adam MarpleHOST
But there was such a beautiful, and it was, I don't know if it was, it couldn't have been in rep, but it was around the same time there was, so Seven Deadly Sins and then Turandot.
