Episode 15 – The Last One for 2025
We wrap up 2025 with our final episode of the year. This week we break down the Ashes 3rd Test, dive into the latest NFL action, and run through all the big talking points in the NRL. We bring back Redemption Trivia, chat about some new game announcements that caught our attention, and lock in our weekly predictions. All that, plus the usual incoherent banter, as we sign off for the year.
Welcome to the Inca here in podcast.

Hoover's back after last week carrying on without Zach, who I presume got over his aids or whatever he had the other other day. Look, I only presume it was AIDS that he was dying from when I rang him.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:No, he was in these belly dancing competition. Remember?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I've been pretty sure he went to belly the S in competition, come home with aids. I rang him the other day. He said to like, death,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:I only call AIDS from you.

squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:I had my work pissy party on the weekend.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. It was that.

squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:No, not too bad. I was a bit tired. I was,'cause I worked that morning,
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:yeah, it wasn't too bad. Played at, Marie at Raymond Terrace. There. a bad course.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I don't know who that is. I know where Raymond Terrace is. No, I know where Raymond Terrace is, but I'm trying to think.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Just up the road from Maccas? Pretty much.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I completely lost.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah. Yeah. It's not a bad
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. I didn't even know it was there.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:apart from the golf. Apart from the golf carts, you can't drive within 50 meters of the greens anywhere you go.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:50.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:That's ridiculous.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Even if you're driving on the path, you'll be driving along. The next minute it'll be at you, and then you gotta put it in reverse.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:They got the lockout ones at Muscle Brook now with the screens and the radio and all sorts of shit.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:how these ones work.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:It was work that.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:Long hot, about the same as most days. yeah, over this flu. So half a day left. We go then. Locked in a few contracts for next year, shaping up the big year again.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Did you just get around watching s.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:No, no, I didn't watch any of the cricket. I've been watching some of the Big Bash.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I haven't watched any of the Big Bash yet.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:I flicked it on there last night, was watching a bit of it before I went to bed.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah, I watched a bit of the Ashes, well as an me Christmas party today, her sitting there on me phone while she was bug rising her in.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah, I watched a little bit, but I don't know. I think Smith could be a big loss losing him just before the coin toss today. But Cummins comes back in, but yeah.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I don't think Kage had done too bad in his little stint that he had slow the wicker rate down.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:could back it up and do it next innings too.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. Carrie with his, with his hundred. Gary, Carrie.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:gotta gotta back it up and do it next innings. That's whereThe loss of Smith sort of really kicks in because he's, he does it back to back so often.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. I've been a little bit freaking disappointed in frigging love Shane. To be honest, he hasn't really, he hasn't really done much for the, the whole series.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:he talking about the same minus that got dropped because he wasn't doing much right.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:But he played today.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:yeah, the whole reason he got dropped from Australia last summer because he
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:doing much. He scored some runs in Shield Cricket, not facing Joffer Archer or Mark Wood. Manas is good. When he was number one, test bat. A few years ago, he was great, but he lost all consistency. He just, he tries to score off too many balls,
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah, he's been given an opportunity to turn it around,. It just doesn't seem to be working, but yeah. Do you, who do you support in the Big B? Got
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Sydney Thunder.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:thunder
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:and Zach's thunder. Oh.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Oh, okay.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Who do you support?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Sixes.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:The sixes.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah. Jonesie supports the sixes too.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. Jonesy's a good poke sometimes.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:suck pretty much. That's
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:I've got to say.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:We do at the moment. We've got Steve Smith's out.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:He plays two games a season.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. They're important games.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:And they're the games you lose.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:more worried that Stark doesn't play enough for this, and he's gonna get PLI to the series. For his Batten, not his bowling.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:He's been killing it. Really. I think I think he's already well deserved that for both his bowl and, and his batten. He's been a pretty good player for the whole series, he been the best player there anyway. Yeah.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah. I'll just goes to show. How good he really is. he's put that bowling attack on his shoulders and stood up and he's sort of been that thethe tail end, he's always had the ability to score runs in that tail end. Last test and then this first in is. He's, yeah. Bat Well, he's aggressive and he's always gonna get out, but he got the ability to score runs, which is great.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:runs help. watch much NFL this week.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:The Tampa Bay.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Tampa Bay game.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:that's pretty all I've seen too, but, the fourth quarter anyway.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:other than that, a few highlights here and there. according to you, the ravens are back, but
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Ravens are back. Ravens are definitely back.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Who, who, who do this
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Ravens patriot.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:gonna lose?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:not necessarily, but it'll be a good game either way.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:I've got a call the NFL
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:what
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Pittsburgh Steelers.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:that.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:They're coming.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:they're not.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:They're, did you see what they've, what they've done to the team yesterday?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:They played Miami.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yes. Monday. Yeah. Sped them.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. Most teams do.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah, they're coming.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:They're not.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:got it.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:They're the Raven's biggest rival.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah. They're gonna beat him.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:Oh, that's who me and Hoover support.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:did the other day. We played the Pats this week we.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yep.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:We play the Patriots this week. It could go either way. It's gonna be a good game though. What I wanted to talk about was Philip Rivers come back to the NFL after five years at the age of 44 to run the quarterback, for the Cols on the weekend.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Rivers.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. Old Men River,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:You can't relate to people making a comeback because you attempted it once upon a time.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:that was, that was a bad idea. 44 years of age to come outta retirement to play quarterback for the col. Pretty big achievement.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:How'd he go?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I think you've been all right. Gimme a second.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:five interceptions.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:No,
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Can't be any worse than the Tampa Bay bloke. That's all he'd done through intersections
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:I know,
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:or fuck it. Or just pass it over to the sideline,
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Baker Mayfield is a good player. Hello?
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:what was funny part.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:we're saying he
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:I was watching that game. I was watching that game and I was cheering for the other team to start off with. didn't know which they were.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:they didn't win the game. They played the sea, the Seattle Seahawks, they lost 18, 16. just trying to see if I can get any stats on rivers. 118 passing yards. He only got sacked once he drew one interception. It's not too bad.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:It's not too bad for five years off.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Five years off and at 44 years of age. Yeah. Philip Rivers. we've got, you got tackled once. threw one touchdown. One intercept, one sack. 120 yards completed, 18 outta to 27 snaps.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah,
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:not too bad.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:that's not too
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Not, not fantastic either, But you'll see out the rest of the season'cause the quarterback for the Colts was out for the rest of the season, Yeah, I always thought that was a little bit interesting, like, could you think of another sport where a player could come back at the rip age of 44 to competing at, at the top level,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:darius Boyd,
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:What the hell's Darius Boyd doing?
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:he would probably come outta retirement at 44, and Wayne Bennett will be into his hundredth year as a coach. And
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Well, funny you should talk about Old boy Wayne, but he's just signed a one year extension to coach through to 2028,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:yeah, I'm, I'm actually keeping And the Wayne this year to be my team is the biggest turnaround in the NRL.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:See.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah. I think they had a, that 20, 25 seasons probably one of their worst. For a long time they had a of, lot of injuries and that, but I, year. We've got a team and a coach and everything, they could quite easily play top four
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:at the end of that contract, it'll be 78.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:and
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I just think it's ridiculous.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:why
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Well, it's a fair age.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:is not, he's not running on the field.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:if
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:wanna be getting outta bed at 70, let alone can gonna work.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:out of bed now.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah. But it's different. I've gotta rest for stuff. I've just seen that Wayne Bennett's frigging extended the 2028 with the rabbits an extra season. that's another three years of Uncle Wayne.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Did you say they got another Sam Burgess coming through the ranks as
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I seen they were looking at some, at a player from England. Yeah.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:No. No. He's only a young fella.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Oh, is he?
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Kiwi. Yeah. Kiwi or, or
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I'm pretty,
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Sam Burgess.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:pretty sure the s were looking at a super league player to bring over as well. I was reading the, the storms planned for their development and stuff like that. I've seen a little bit on what the knight's development up this way is. Stuff like that. the storm, wanna try and bring in, bring through,'cause they've had five Victorian players come through in their history, but they want to try and turn that around. they're gonna start their development from Melbourne. they want five Victorian bred players in every five years from now on to make their first grade debut for the storm. the Knight are doing some stuff with the development on the
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:for Melbourne to do.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:they, they just need to set up a competition and find players that wanna play I don't think it'd be too hard. Probably the travel's probably gonna the hardest.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:girl side,
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah, they're looking at, they're looking at putting in A-N-R-L-W team as well, and having development through that way as well.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:which is, yeah. It's not a bad choice really
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:No, I think every NRL team needs an NRLW team now, To be honest. KA and Pong has been in a moon boot apparently. might,
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:last six months.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:yeah, he might not start the season maybe see what happens,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:No big loss.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Dylan Brown does look good. Red and blue though.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Yeah, I reckon it'll do. All right.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:a little bit.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:quite catch that.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:just not listening.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:last week there I predicted that the nights will be anywhere between and 13th next season.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah, maybe see what happens with, injuries and stuff. Tyson Zel said that it might be his last season, but he's gonna see how the year goes, but not usually pretty good indicator that they'll retire.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:England.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:oh, he probably could.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:don't know if he will.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:He's got another, I think he's got another season on his contract, maybe in his favor, or the, I think it's in his favor, maybe they'd have to release him, I suppose. But. Yeah. there's not been real much happening around sport really. It's the end of the year,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:I give it another week. Time we come back from having our little week holiday, then there'll be a lot of drug scandals and people piss in mouths and shit and
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:we don't need,
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:heaps to talk about when we come back

the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Something like that. I dunno. I just jump on it all the time, do my daily questions and stuff. And I went through and cleared all the Red Bull ones, just about that was on there the other day. I was just doing the things. I wasn't even playing the game properly, I was just unlocking all the shit, probably pissing people off, because I wasn't actually playing. although I did,
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:you be watching?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Hey.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Oh,
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:there
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I don't know anything about it.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:in between the ads and the big bus. there's big game and tournament coming on.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I don't watch normal tv.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Oh, sorry,
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:So I wouldn't know anything about it, but you know what, it is kind of cool That I forgot was a thing is, that Tiger Woods frigging golf thing, the, simulated golf tournament thing that he does. I actually really big fan of that.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:who's that? is that the one that, was it Rory played at it. Of course, someone played at it and they, they said, how far out? And then, they, they said, 199, he only hit 99 and hit a sandwich or something.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I think it was that one. they misheard. He misheard what they said and he took Picked up the wrong club.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:And hid it. And they're like, what the hell are you doing?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:He goes, you told me 99 out.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:199. that's it. And the whole green has things that move it around and shit. It's pretty cool when you look at how that facility was built. It's pretty cool. I actually don't mind it.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:That's the problem. But the virtual golf, it's all right for hitting your clubs and that, but when you get down to Button and pitch and wedge and all that, ones. It's very hard to judge.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:that's not what they do. they'll hit it into the screen for their drive or their long hits, and then there's an actual green in the warehouse and you've got the crowd around it and they manipulate it. They manipulate the green, I think it's TGL Golf Toggle Woods Golf League or something like that. Have a look at how they built the facility. Have a look at, it's absolutely Fascinating. TGL Golf League.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:It is coming up as a PlayStation one game.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Is it actually, I think it's TGL or something. Here. I'll find it.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:He is just typing in Tiger Woods's golf. It's gonna come up as
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Yeah.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:one game.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:No, T-G-L-T-G-L Golf League. It's played on Wednesdays. I'm pretty sure. Because I did used to watch it a fair bit, probably could've watched it today, but
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Why didn't you?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I was at Amelia's Christmas party today.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:I'm, all I'm hearing is excuses, mate.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:Nah, I played a little bit of the forest and went into the Christmas party and helped me Andrea out and picked Bodie up and yeah. been running around.
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:Were you puffed?
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I was driving around,
squadcaster-dd4c_1_12-17-2025_204243:running
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:I didn't do any running, Amanda got me to weigh myself before because she went and got some scales'cause she's lost weight. yeah, that's it. she just got me to weigh myself. I don't wanna talk about it.
zach-host449_1_12-17-2025_204243:She will have to go get new scales again'cause those ones will be outta calibration.
the-incoherent-podcast_1_12-17-2025_204245:No.
Is ready for some redemption trivia? Probably not. Well, Zach won last time, so you get to pick the first thing. It's not all NRL this week. You've got name, the team name, the year, or name this player. Uh, which one do you want? Name the year. Name, the year. Good choice. All right. The premiers were the Manly Sea Eagles. The minor premiers were the storm. Top Point scorer was Benji Marshall. Dli M was Billy Slater. Top tri scorer was Nathan Merritt and Ben Barber. The spoon went to the Titans, dli, cherry Evans and Kieran for became the youngest halves pairing to win a grand final. New Zealand Warriors were the runners up in the Grand Final. I don't know what year that was. I am gonna say 2005. No, the Tigers won that year. So, and the Cowboys were the runners up. And you gotta say your name. Yes, yes you do. Um, please repeat the question. NL Premieres were the Manly Sea Eagles Minor premiers were the storm. Top Point scorer was Benji Marshall. Dli M was Billy Slater. Top tri scorers were Nathan Merri and Ben Barber. The spoons were the Titans Daily Cherry Evans and Kieran for became the youngest halves pairing to win a grand final. New Zealand warriors were runners up in the grand final 2012, nah, 14. Nah, that's Zach's turn. Yeah, that's right. It's my turn. And the Broncos were the runners up that year.'cause the Cowboys want it. I think I've got it now. Did you Google it?'cause we can't tell if you didn't. No. No. If you still don't know why your screen's black. Oh, I can see his. Where are we? Jonos got paper stuck to his back. I don't have to pay. What'd you say? 2014? It's lower than that. 2010. Lower again? It your turn. 2 0 2. 2 0 0 2. Nah. Ben Barber wouldn't even fucking thought of back then. Mm-hmm. Trying to think of when Manly won it. All you gotta think of to make it easier is the, the two times the Warriors were in the grand final. It was the last time that Manly won the Grand Final. They won 40 nil. No, Manley did not. Yeah, they did get the Warriors. No they didn't. That was the storm and that was in 2008. They smash the storm. Hey, they smashed the storm. 2 0 9. No, that was when the storm beat the Eagles. It was Jared Hane was 11. Yeah, whoever got it, di didn't say his name. No, he didn't. And neither did you either time. So fuck you, you can have 2011. I didn't have to because Hoover had already lost his go. No. Yeah, that's right. Well, John a gets a point for that'cause he didn't pull us up on it. So he gets a shot. No. Who can have it in neither of your I did. I said you've gotta say your name. I said it and you just kept going. You can go back and listen to it on the podcast. I did say please use your name and you just didn't do it. No you didn't. Zach. You didn't speak any rules or name this player anything. Go with player. Name the player. All right. Use your name as a buzzer. Don't tell me what to do. You're not even a real dad. No. But you'll listen to me. All right. And your mum. No. I was born 23rd of August, 1986. I have won a grand final with both the dragons and the roosters. I played for Australia on 18 occasions, scoring 23 tries. I played for New South Wales, 15 times scoring, five tries. I played mainly on the Wing, but also at fullback. I moved from the Dragons to the Bulldogs. I played most of my career alongside my twin brother, Zach? Yeah, do Nah. Hoover? No. Hoover. Brett. Morris. Yeah. Hoover's got two, so. Hoover goes from five shots to four and ho and that goes to you. You need to, uh, recalculate that. I got two. So that takes two shots off, doesn't it? No. You only lose one shot for getting it right. Yeah. Well, I got two questions, right. You just wanna do the last question or leave it till next time. Right. I'll ask you the last question. What? Where is your piece of paper? I found it. It's fine. Where is it? Oh, it's on me back. No, it's in front of you. You found it. You idiot. Alright. Do you want me to do the last question or no, as well? You name the team. Yeah. And Josh Morris has never won a grand final. Zach, just so you know. And he played for the Sharks. Don't really care, to be honest. No, I'm just giving you feedback for next time. Name the team. I am an NFL team. I'm based in the greater Boston area, but Boston is not in my name. I'm part of the A FC. We play at Gillette Stadium. Our colors are nautical, blue, red, and new center silver. We have won six Super Bowls, all with the same quarterback. He is regarded as the great greatest quarterback of all time. Some people call him Tom. I don't call him Tom. What do you call him? Quarterback. What were the colors again? The colors are nautical. Blue, red, and new century silver. The blue, red and silver. Yeah, basically. And they're gonna beat the ravens this week. Who's that? Zach Patriots. He didn't say name. Hoover gets it so he gets all three. So maybe you should lose two. No, that's all good. We'll just take the one off. Oh, that's the last one. Till next year. Anyway, we gotta come up with three new questions. Alright. I'll think of some for you as well. Okay. All right. Do you wanna do some game and stuff? What are you gonna load first on your PS five Hoover again? I don't know yet. Pretty much I've gotta get a subscription first. I said last week, I, I wasn't too worried about it until I actually set up the PlayStation. Yeah. And then go from there. Yeah. But yeah, it would probably, I'd probably just get a free game to start off with. See how it goes, and then yeah, go from there. Yeah, it will depend on what subscription you get, what games you can get, I suppose. But yeah, if you set it up before Christmas, Uber, you can download Harry Potter for free. That's what I was thinking. I was thinking about actually setting it up Christmas Eve. It's Hogwarts legacy is still free until Christmas Eve, I think. Well, looks like I'll be setting it up then. Downloading the games. Yeah. I can't wait for the Lord of the Rings one that's made the same, to be honest, the ring will be cool. Lord of the Rings on PlayStation. Yeah, there's been a couple, but this one's the same as that. Harry Potter one, that's an open world. It's actually pretty cool. The Harry Potter one was actually really good. I actually thought about the unloading that again the other day, but. Yeah, we went playing college football battlefield and the forest. So when you say football, are you talking about Madden or are you talking about college football? College football, there's two different ones. There's Madden and there's college football. I've been playing the college football one, which is all the college teams and that, and I've been trying to play as a running back. Going through my college career and then I'll transfer me player over into the NFL to do the draft and stuff eventually, but I was getting the shits with it the other day. I kept getting dropped so I couldn't upgrade me. Just real life. Yeah, pretty much. I had an unrealistic apparently, so yeah, that's probably one of the games I will get. Madden. Madden, yeah. If you get, how much is the EA subscriptions? It's 10 bucks. You get all the EA games. They're 12 month old months. You can get hockey Madden, college football, a few different ones. Yeah. 10 bucks. It's, it's only nine or 10 bucks a month, but I don't have it anyway. You get free hey, but you get it. You get'em for, yeah. Yeah. So when the new one gets released, so the 2026, the old one. Yeah. Soon as 2027 gets released. All the 20, 26 games. Yeah. Become free. Yeah. And then and all that, all FC that that's free. Last year's one's free on there now. And that hockey and all that. What's that? EA sports play? Yeah, play. So I think it's only nine or 10 bucks or something a month. I don't have it at the moment. I nearly bought hockey the other day'cause I didn't have it. But it's not discounted anymore. It was discounted the other day. So. Yeah, so this week I had the game awards for the year and the game of the year's been announced, expedition 33. And I have not played it. I don't really intend on playing it'cause apparently it's term based and I'm not a fan of term based games, but. If it comes free, I'll probably go have a look at it and see what all the RA's about. But apparently you either really like it or you really hate it. Well, a lot of people really liked it because it was game of the year. Oh, yeah. No, you're right. Well, did you say anything this week, Zach picked your interest? You told me you had heaps to talk about last week when you couldn't call. When did I say that? I rang you the other day? You said you had heaps to talk about.'cause last week's episode ended up shorter than what I anticipated. Yeah, because we were gonna talk about our streaming stuff. Oh yeah. I kind of talked about it. We played cricket 26. What was your thought? What's your thoughts on it? AB for what, two weeks now? Yeah. I actually haven't played since we played it. I haven't played that much PlayStation at all since the other. Well, last weekend you were off. Yeah, I play, I played a little bit of it. I, I don't know. It's pretty much the same game. It's not that much better field and shit. Yeah. Field is horrible. It's not, they tweaked the fielding a little bit and made it better. Played the previous games, but, um, I'm not for you. It's just'cause you couldn't field properly. I couldn't bat properly either, but No, you couldn't. Couldn't handle the Yorker. I could handle The Yorker. I could only handle in one direction though. He did admit last week there that he was, you were the superior player in cricket. No, I just said that. I finally realized why I don't play him in cricket, because it's frigging hard, not him. It's the game. The online game. Bit's hard. Hmm. It's got nothing to do with him that, that's what he says now while I'm sitting here. Yeah. Yeah. Well, and then we got into some seven days to die and we made a shit outta our base camp. We did. Yeah. Gotta we get back to that and get rid for our first horde night? Yeah. When I get a chance. So what a month next weekend. I'm on this weekend off next weekend, but that's Christmas, so Yeah. We'll see what happens. You'll be away. I won't be home. No. So I've still gotta go and get a USB to download the stuff anyway.'cause external hard drive was really expensive for what I wanted it for. Yeah. And I can't use the one that has me games on it because it's got me games on. It won't let me. Yeah. But you got right into seven days to die, though. I haven't. Can't watch video. Hey, I haven't. I just watched some videos and you had to play it a bit better. Yeah, it's not getting right into it. I watched videos on heaps of games. Yeah, I think you got into it. No, there was a few announcements to games the other day at the game award thing. New game, new Tomb raid, which is a, oh, it's sort of a reimagining of the original Tomb Radar, a new Star Wars game, the Old Republic, which is, I'm pretty excited for. I like Star Wars games. We got a mad story to it. No, star Wars is horrendous. Hated the movies. Done a lot of games. Either. Star Wars is good. No, just'cause you can't get your head around it. No, they're shit. No, they're good. Star Wars is shy. Star Wars isn't shy. They're making another Ace Combat game, which is the top gun light frigging jet pilot fighter one. You ever played them? I did play a little bit of one of the first couple, but I was, I've never been much into those types of games. Neither a, I really, but I didn't mind the. Last one that I played, so which was the last one that come out? It's been a while. Flight simulator's been released on PlayStation five, which is a big thing and I keep thinking whether I should buy it or not, but I dunno if you buy it and have it all set up or just use your controller, I'm not sure if that's a thing. So, but when the fuck have you ever been into planes? Me? I'm not. Why would you go out to buy a game that it's all about planes? It'd be a very exciting game, I reckon. I just find those things cool. I've got frigging a taxi simulator where I drive around as a taxi driver in Barcelona, which I think's gonna be really cool when I've got my steering wheel. Will fucking hell take tolls and shit. Follow the law. I just fly those types of games. I just sit there and just play'em. It's not, I dunno why. So. Farming simulator. Yeah, fair enough. Can get around it. Goat Simulator? No, I play, no, I played Goat Simulator for the first one. I know and that's why I said it. It was just stupid fun. That one. So, yeah, probably one that was controversial for you. Zach, can you get around the forest? Three? I can, but um,'cause I haven't played number two yet. It's under the forest. Don't know exactly where the game plays. From the forestry is coming from, apparently it's, it feels way too futuristic for me. No, it's supposed to be that they've crashed on a deserted planet. It's not, it's the same sort of thing. There is, it's not a story from Sons of the Forest or anything. I looked into it'cause a lot of people were saying the same thing. Where's all this futuristic shit come from? But it's literally the storyline to it is that they've. Crashed on a planet this time and need to survive. So it's just a different take on it. I suppose. It'll either work or it won't. I've been playing the forest the last two days. You don't fuck with things that aren't broke. I know, I know. I, I don't mind the forest. But then I was playing it today and I realized why I don't. Delve right into the forest. It's a little bit glitchy and it's not fantastic. I nearly bought suns of the forest, but you pointed out I've nearly never finished the forest. So yeah, I do like it. I'm gonna try and stick it out. Finish the story. But I think suns you won't. Forest will teach better. I will. Yeah. I've been playing it. I just, I had to turn it off. You'll do the first cave and then you'll be like, nah, I'm over this. I've already been in the cave. Trust me, I've had to restart it. I didn't even last one day there At one stage I had to restart again, so because I didn't save it. Uh, yeah. Yeah. What about you? Have you seen anything? No, I haven't really been looking to tell the truth. I suppose once I set the PlayStation up, I'll probably start looking a lot more. Yeah. Yeah. You'll probably start Googling and it'll just come through as the algorithm and it'll just come up, I suppose. Yeah, I then, that's all it does on my, it does on my phone anyway, so I start goling how to play things and stuff that, and it just throws stuff up all the time. So I have heaps of suns of the forest comes up lately, but it's only'cause I keep clicking on it. Yeah, that's the thing I gotta figure out too. I, I think this PlayStation's two terabytes or whatever it is. Yeah, they'll be, they'll hold, they'll hold a few games, won't it? Yeah. And if not, you just, well, well, you'll need an external hard drive. You can put'em on there. It's, it's quicker to download it, otherwise you can just delete'em off there and load a new one. It just takes longer to load'em back up on it. Yeah, righto. By longer, I mean a lot longer'cause it's already technically loaded on there. It just transfers it over. So yeah, it just sort of copies it and then you get the updates and stuff that, so, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Righto. I've been, I've been a little bit interested'cause I'm getting me steering wheel. I nearly bought it yesterday, but I wanna wait until Christmas, but Grand Tree's Mate's bought out that DLC, that's got 24 hour races. It's got frigging new cars, new tracks, and new. Well, I think there's 150 new races or something that to put on there. It's just an expansion on the already game. It's 44 bucks. I nearly bought it the other day, but I think I'm gonna wait until I've got my steering wheel or low green tru mow up and get stuck into that. I think. So with the 24 hour races, they are actual 24 hour races. And you have to do, I think it's one or two laps and then you can save your progress and come back to it. So, and this is why you won't finish the forest? Yeah, it probably will be. Yeah. Yeah. But we've still gotta do our seven days to die thing anyway, so, but I've got the VR to go with that as well, so that's why. And it's new, new stuff and you get like 5 million credits to go with it. So. Might as well. Is your table gonna hold up to your steering wheel? I'm not sure'cause it's only a cheap four. What John built the fucker that's not built. All he said he had that, he said he had that many loose bolts and spare bolts there the other day. It wasn't loose and that they were extras. I was just hoping like we got halfway through last week and the next minute the just the video's just facing the ground'cause his table collapsed on him. It's not gonna collapse, it's fine. It's just, I put some of it back to front and I wasn't undoing all the shit that I'd already done that fix it. Well you keep getting more and more shit to put on the table. It will fall pieces I reckon. I don't keep getting more and more stuff and Amanda bought me a lot and that's all that's going. That's all just about, you got me a little shelf I'm trying to do up, so it's good. That's fine. The keyboard tray's not in straight, but I'm the only one that knows that, so it'll be fine. I know it. Hmm. All you wanna do our predictions. Well, he is got anything else? Yeah, we can do our predictions now. Yeah. All right. Our predictions we can do it are brought to you by cross air pipe and excavation for all your pipe excavation, poly welding, or general needs, head over to their Facebook page and see Zach can help you out with whatever you need. Concrete driveways, trenches. Yeah. Is there anything you won't do? Not like you. I don't give blow jobs. That's unfortunate. Neither to what? So all, what predictions have you got this week? I got both. Mine wrong. Whoever. You got both yours wrong. And Zach's as controversial. Mine's not controversial at all. It was controversial. It's not because I put, so we all throw in our$10, we put$5 towards our. Own multi and we put the other$5 towards these predictions'cause I was crook last week. I had done my$5 multi, sent it through Johnson being the MTY that he is a bit special. Didn't bother to have a look at the bet that I'd already put on to confirm which teams I was betting on. Decided to do whatever he liked. Back against my number one team. Yeah, he's just special. It's not controversial at all. I thought you meant Champions League. I didn't know you meant Little Leaguer. No, because a month ago we all sat here and decided that we would not back teams that play on Wednesday mornings because their podcast doesn't get released till Thursday. Yeah, first time we've gone against what we've said. Oh, so Johnson got three wrong last week because he can't follow his own rules and he's nty. I think you're wrong, but no, no, no hour. Alright, I've got, I've got the Detroit Lines winning this week, and I've got Liverpool winning this week. Sorry, the Detroit Lion have already been beaten this week? No, next week. It's not this week. They got beat on Monday. The Detroit Lions? Yeah, because they played the LA Rings Steelers. They played the Pittsburgh Steelers. No they didn't. The Steelers played the Dolphins. Are you sure? Yes, they played. I was watching it yesterday. It was on Monday, LA Rams. La Rams played the Lion and they came back from 20 points down or something to beat'em, and the Steelers played the Miami Dolphins, who Everybody just about beats and then Detroit Lions and Liverpool. Mm-hmm. Can't believe you going fucking Liverpool. Oh, they, they're due for a comeback, even though Saul is unhappy. There's coaching controversy. Andrew's in running for the coaching job at Liverpool. Apparently. So I read so well. I've gone to NFL ones again. The Detroit Lion play the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday. Did they? No, they play it this Monday. The one that just went, no, next Monday. Next Monday, yeah. You sure? Yeah. And Liverpool play Tottenham. Yeah. It's a draw. It's gonna be a draw. It's not gonna be a draw. My tips are the Los Angeles charges. Win. And I'm gonna go the Jacksonville Jaguars again. Who are the charger? Play? Play? Uh, they're, they're both not the favorites either. No, they're not. Oh. Charger might be The Cowboys and Jags are being, they're looking at winning. Yeah, group. So yeah, I think they might be my team. The Jaguar. Yeah, I, I'm not gonna declare it yet, but we'll see. Yeah, I don't mind the Jags. What a soft spot for him. Don't make mine. Trevor Lawrence. So that's on Sunday. There's heaps of games. Their games are all over the place. Must be because of Christmas. So we'll do, we are still gonna do our predictions over the two weeks we're off or Yeah, we might throw some roofies in there. Yeah. Who knows? We might be able to put it up on the Facebook group. Yeah, we can do that. Actually, I think you've gone too far. Alright. Jag was played Denver, Broncos. Sorry. I wanna week you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's, that's who it is. Denver. Broncos our favorite, but yeah. No, yeah. I'm just happens certain Jags. Yeah. Oh, we'll see what happens. Yeah. Where you can't cowboy. Hey, I can't believe you're gonna back against the Cowboys. Who? Hoover. Oh, with the charges? Yeah. You've been all over the cowboys for weeks now. That's probably the smartest thing he's done. Well, you kept telling him that that fucking cowboys wouldn't win and they kept winning. Yeah. And then the time that I didn't back him, they lost. They they won. Yeah. You're probably right, but yeah, me, I am looking at an EPL game. It gonna take Citi to do a number on Westham. Citi's just hitting their straps at the moment and I think Arsenal should really fear for that top spot. Game made with Liga and I've gone al to win that one. But yeah, they're my, my two predictions this week. All right. So we can go put them on. I suppose I'm in the middle of doing that already. At least I know it'll be done. Right. All. Do you have anything else for this week? For this year? Merry Christmas everyone. Be safe. Have a happy New Year. Definitely. That play PlayStations? Yes. Yep. And if you haven't got one, ask SNA or Hoover. Yeah, Hoover will just give you one. Yeah, I'll sell you one. My sponsors have finally came through. Now. Sponsored by? Yeah, sponsored by PlayStation. Oh, fair enough. Eh? Oh. What are you reckon? I noticed you didn't cut out any of the goodbyes last week either. They were all, they were all there. Yeah. Because you did it, you did it properly. No, no. You just like to cut it out. No, I don't. I do. When you say stuff over the top of, at the end of it that I can't get rid of. The last one I knew was on. I did cut it out and there was a very good reason for that. Dunno what you're talking about. Yeah. Well, yeah, boy. Yeah, right. Uh, hope everyone has a good Christmas and we'll be back in the new year. Hopefully improved new stuff. More to talk about anyway. So. Should have two weeks when we come back. We don't have long before the NRL kicks off, which will No, we don't. So we'll probably, we'll probably do our own ladder predictions while we're off and go through and do a little bit of a team by team sort of thing. I think so. That's what we know the best about talking about. So yeah. Might as well capitalize on it. It's at the bottom if you say so. You do your ladder. I'll do mine. Alright. All right. I think that's, bye from us for the year anyway. Two years later. Have a good, Chrissy, you're just not gonna say anything. There's no point in me saying anything. It's, you're just gonna cut it out. If you do it properly, I won't. Little bit less for you to edit. All right, so it's her from Zach, I suppose. And uh, yeah. Have a good Christmas. See you next year.
