Kia ora tātou, te ata pai te reiki me te rehua me te patinga tātou, ake ake ake amene. Welcome back to the Podfellas, Episode 4 here with special guests Rob and Jett. Louie Kendall. Yeah, round of applause for Louie and Jett. Hello. The best of the world. Yeah. Alright, so we welcome on Jett and Robbie onto the podcast today. Kia ora tātou. Kia ora. So we're going to run through your teams. We'll start with you Rob. Oh no. Start us off with who your opponent is, what your team's biggest strength is. Wait, should we talk about who's winning? Oh nah. And who, what's your opponent's biggest weakness? Alright, so we're going this week? Yep. Alright, so this week I'm playing Small Bag, also known as George Tingy. That's his name. He's just got a starting spot in his middle forwards. That screams weakness. Hold there. But other than that, our teams are somewhat similar. He traded Cleary, so he's got a bit more money to work with. Did you hold? I have two. No, I'm not holding Kanamari. Thank God. Alright, your biggest strength. Ah right, my biggest strength. Comparatively, I'd say my middle forwards. Even after trading Kanamari. And my biggest weakness is definitely my halves. Who's got a weakness? I've got Lucky Galvin and Drew Hutchinson. Oh, still got Hutch. Look, Hutch is probably going to be trading next week. Yeah, no. Talk to you in a round number. What rank are you at the moment? In the world? No, in the league. In the league, I'm 19. Oh. At least I'm not 20 yet. Wait, 19? Yeah. No, and how did your team go last week? Oh, sorry. Last week, I unfortunately lost to a pretty average side of Patrick NRL. Ooh, yeah. And it was even worse because Tanner Boyd wasn't even playing. And so I came up against 16 with 17 in mind. So you've got headaches. So I've got headaches. My head's spinning.

And I'm not able to get up. And I'm not able to get up. And I'm not able to get up. And I'm not able to get up. And I'm not able to get up. Um, G-Fans. G-Fans. Um, now a few G-Fans have sent in a few questions to us. So, um, we'll roll through a few of them. First up, we've got, um, Tom Hope underscore asking who do you bring in for Hammer probably coming up. Great question, Tom. I'd look at Rhys Walsh. Really? I'd look at Charles Nichol-Cloxton. Yeah, so would I. I'd look at Charles. Have you seen his running metres? Yeah, I've seen his running metres. That's crazy. Really? He lost, he lost metres on the NRL. It wasn't the top run metres of all time. He beat Charles by one. Shit. Could look at Reuben Garrick. Reuben Garrick. Gags. Gags are stinging. Yeah. And he's dropped a bit of money. You'll lose him round 12 if you've got KPP and Cameron Fine, but he's gone for a while. Yeah. What's the price of Hammer at the moment? Hammer is $618. He's only a fee sticker. Yeah, but the thing with Walsh is obviously that origin, right? And origin is just a scary thing right now because if you bring in heaps of origin players then you just fuck them. Yeah. Yeah. Also, back to Walsh as well. Exactly. After Walsh. I don't know if we'd be able to get word in though. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Laughs. Like, we'll consider it. Yeah, we'll consider it. We'll consider it, but I don't know, who's he got? Has he got Doug? He must be. Doug will be on our fucking team. Charles or Walsh. But if he can get to Ponga, if he can get to Ponga, go Ponga. If you want to go Ponga and, I mean, Hammer and Berber for Chevy and Ponga. Yeah. KRO is just about 80k cheaper, more expensive than Berber. No, no, KRO is 80k cheaper and more expensive than Chevy. I just don't like Chevy to be honest. I picked up Chevy last week, it was alright. I'm not going to pick them up. It'll make cash. It'll probably get up to like 300 in KRO. Walsh, in my opinion. Walsh in my opinion as well, aye. We've talked about this just before, but Origin, the year before, Calum Ponga got the Man of the Series. But then he couldn't play Origin. When you bring someone in and they play fucking well, you can't drop them out of it. It's more about Game 2. Game 1, I personally think it would be Rhys Walsh. I reckon Calum Ponga would come in. But Calum can be 14 in my opinion. I reckon Ben Hunt. I reckon they'll go with Ben Hunt. There's no way they'll put Ponga in there. It'll be one or the other. I just think he backed the dude who won it last year. Like if they lose Game 1, they may as well. But he wasn't available for selection, that's the thing. I think Rhys. I'd give it a 70-30 if I'm honest. I'd give it an 80-20. I think Calum would get an 80-20 as well. Yeah exactly, they're both fragile. I'll let Jed answer this. I think one of them. I liked him at the very start of the season before team lists had even come out. Like any team list. His pre-season was cocked. He's not bad. Breakeven of 18. He's not cheap and I feel like there's a lot of senses about him. Yeah but you don't have time for someone with an 18 breakeven. That's the thing, you've got now or he's going to be 500k. Realistically that game against the Storms is probably one of his better games of the season. It was just a good game. He got two tries, two line breaks and three line breaks. I just don't think... The only question to answer right here is 0.10% have him in the top 5,000. Yeah. Probably not a pick up. I think that's a lot better option to go for. Exactly. Then you've got guys like Ethan Strange. 26 in round 5 I think. Yeah I don't know. I'd say no. Another thing we've got to touch on today what's the thoughts on James Fisher-Harris. He's got big boots to fill. He's got massive boots. There was only one or two. One reasonable option. We're not going to get pain hearts. Bring him home. Considering we were looking at guys like Francis Molo and Hamilton Dweller. We'll see him out. That's why he's moving home. He wants to finish off. I think all the Kiwis should just come home. Get Terry Muddy back. Get Dylan Brown back. That'd be nice. Maybe a Moses Leota. Someone was saying that at golf today. That'd be a good boy for grassroots. Moving on to Captain's Corner. Who's ever in captaining? Then just chuck out who you also think would be a number one option if you had a captain. The person I'm captaining is a person I'm trading in. I don't know if I want to disclose that information. Who are you playing? George Singing. If you're listening George, I'm picking up Calum Pongin and skipping him. If I had free reign as captain I'd still probably go Pongin. Maybe Hines. One of the three. He did well for me last week. I'm going to go Pat Carrigan again. If I did have him I'd be going to go Hines. I've got you mate. Pat Carrigan will be wearing the band. So that'll be a fun 80 minutes to watch. I'm tossing up between Grant and Foggs. I like Grant here because he's a close match up. A lot of defending through the middle I'd say. He's definitely due a 70-80 pace. Not considering Pongin as captain? No I'm not. Against the Doggies who are feeling hot right now. I think the Doggies might beat them though. Foggety against the Bronx to be fair he does better against teams that are better than him. Who knows Foggety? Kicking down Reece Foggety's throat. And who would you skip if you had him? Hines. I'm going to go Dylan Brown this week. He's been very weak. Or I could go Grant but I'd most likely be stuck on Bill Baggs. Grant ended up on 57 last week. He's got some dirty goatees. Should be on 26. Adam Irvine? I think mine's a no-brainer. I'm skipping Sean this week. You've held Cleary and you've got Sean. Yeah man. I think DCE against the Titans would be a scary deal. I agree, good call. Warriors have a good history at Wollongong. I'm pretty sure they do. Yeah, that Climax will get him for two though. Oh yeah, mine. I think there's only really one guy, there's only one guy you should be thinking about. It's that guy in the boot for the Knights. His name's Carolyn Pongrath and I think he is the guy that is going to ruin Jeff Swanberg's week. What about that? Is he kicking? Don't worry, I've missed him. You should go for the boot. Bradman will be kicking a few bro. Bradman's got the tee up. KP is not kicking. POD, guy of the week. Who is your sneaky POD? You're Robbie Jones. Me and Tom had a wee conversation, I think it might have been last night or the night before. Keep your two cents. He's not like a great POD, but if you're looking at a person to replace Hutchinson with, Kieran Foran has got the 7 jersey for the Titans and he's got, how many kick meetings did he get last week? All I'm saying now is Tom Houghton needs to forget about the Titans 7. What was his decision? Tatter Boy now Kieran Foran. I'm not sure. No, no, no. No, Kieran Foran's definitely named it. It's not a strong POD. Who's the big? Philip Sarnie. I don't know why they haven't just got Keanu back. He's too young. Too young and too small. They did play him actually. Is he injured? I don't think so. I think they just needed to change something. When he was in the boot, three games? I mean Campbell was in for a couple as well. I don't know. Well my POD of this week so he's played 80 every week. He's been dropping some nice balls. Victor Radley. Victor Radley. He's got a low 669. He's an 80 minute player for the Roosters. Averages 51.2 with breakeven 35. I think he is a solid option. He won't play Origen either and he's obviously got an 80 minute role at Roosters so he could be a very solid option. He is due a two weeks though. He's due a chance. He's been playing good footy. It's all just building up inside of me. He'll throw one next game. Is that enough? I can see a storm boiled up game and he gives one. He'll just throw a shoulder. Fucking idiot. Did you play good footy? My one's not really POD but chance. I mean at a breakeven of 19 which you'll probably hold him anyway. No Origen. He's just been injured so that means he'll never get injured again. I like him. All those run meters. Dang yeah that's my POD but wait a week. Wait a week. 72 breakeven this week. Holy. It's a must. But he is an Origen player as well. Do you reckon? He didn't play last year did he? It's alright though. All the way from me I'm going to go with you and Aiken. Oh yeah. Yeah it was about 80 minutes. He's dropping some nice scores. He's like 50's. What's he priced at now? 6.15 he's priced at. He's got a bit of ground to make if he keeps getting those 50's up. I think Morgan Smithies is a better option. You've got him in your team though. Yeah. That price range though. You've got to go. You're in there. You've got to go Morgan. Has he named it centre or second row? He's one of the centre right. Are you sure? He's one of the second row. He scores much higher in there. He averages how much? 51 at second row. How much do you average at centre? 41. So there's a 10 point difference between second row and centre. And where is he named? Edge. And he's got the role because Limuel is close. Limuel is back 11 or something. Alright Jamal. My guy is going to be that guy on the edge for the Manly Seagulls. That is Hiboli Olakuatu. He's got a He's got 10% ownership and his last 4 scores 3 scores he's gone 60, 57 and then 60 and he's got a breakeven of 38. He's expensive though. 48 breakeven. He's dropping some big scores I reckon. He also has Touching on that though let's talk about Waddell. He's at 425 starting edge for Manly. 8 minutes, 9 breakeven. So do you go him or the Crichton? That's kind of the thing. Breakeven of 9? I do think Corey Waddell is walking in. Oh load of them too. Yeah Corey Waddell could be nice but it's just a scare like if Birbo comes back in 4 weeks does he just take that spot again? I reckon Birbo is pretty bang average He is, he's bang average. I saw a King of the Week and Birbo was at the centre for it. You're kidding. That's got to be a piss game. No as in like the top scorer. Oh right. Yeah the top piercing. Are you kidding? Kid gets in for a wide open try or he could make a He could make a try saver as well to be fair. Corey Waddell over the game 50 minutes averages 41.2 over 60. That break he made against the Lars was pretty nice as well. Went straight through a hole. Is he getting 80 minutes? Nah probably not. Probably 77 round 5. Played the whole game last game. It's an interesting one. Well Birbo has actually been injured at the perfect time. With 24 break even. He can't bottom it out anyway. It's a good time break though. Alright everyone slips for the round. We'll just go around and throw a multi out there. Right. You heard the Hudson Young anytime camera last week and loved it. Did he call that? Yeah that was nice. Right. I've just got an out rights one. I've got the Waz Parramatta Henrith Seagulls Brisbane 10 bucks to 50 $5 all time. How many leagues was that? It is. 5 leagues. 10 bucks to 50. I've just started a power play for the Waz last game. That has some incredible value. If DWZ anytime and Waz 13 plus at $4.25 Oh wow. That is really nice. From? From $3.75. A bit of positive EB in there. Alright mate. What about this boosted one? 15 bucks. You might be a fan of this one. Zach Lomax. If you want free money mate. He's printing it over there. If you want money. I personally heard Anthony O'Blake, Sean Johnson are going in for one. And the Waz are winning by 13 plus. Should we just do a Warriors game slip? Oh yeah. Sort of. Hope you got the Storm vs Ruses loop. I'm quite broke so I haven't put anything down. But Harry Brown just put him in. But he did? Oh he did. Who's at home? I'll back who's at home. I think the Ruses are at home. Yeah. I'll back. I've just landed home advantage. It is at Stadium. Yeah. I like the Ruses as well. Is it everyone's slips? I think Kurt is well overdue. Caped. Get the caped ones. Get the caped ones. Yeah. Alright well have we got any other talking points? Or is that us? I think that's probably us. Alright well thank you guys for joining us. Should we just do like a Spam of the League? Yeah. Patrick Long's the highlight there. Who's getting last? Who's getting last? After it's all said and done. Who's going in the closet? This is going to be quite offensive isn't it? I think Joe Kelsey's in there. I think that closet's got a spot name on it. Nah his team's dust. He's a shitty person. He's just got it coming really. I think Sten's at the bottom now and he's already got a lot of work to do. Yeah Sten's Sten gives a fuck. Oh Sten's hard. I'm just looking at it right now. He's constrained? Plano and Hodge. Has he held Cleary though? He has held Cleary. Credit to him but it's been an expensive hold. Could we see a servo RBG back in the closet? I don't think so. Alright let's call it there. Thank you guys for joining us and that is the end.
