Episode 18: Missing Footy, Loving NFL

The boys break down an unreal NFL playoff weekend that had us on the edge of our seats—big moments, bold calls, and plenty of chaos. We also roll into our NRL preview with a look at the Roosters, Dolphins, and Bulldogs: key storylines, players to watch, and where we think they land this season. Plus, a chat about the games we’ve been playing lately and our predictions for the week ahead, all wrapped in the usual Incoherent banter. Tune in for laughs, hot takes, and a healthy dose of footy and football.

Welcome to the Inca here in podcast.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

episode 18 of the Incoherent podcast. Joined with Zach and Hoover once again after a week of work and weekend of doing nothing. So, but what has been really exciting is the NFL playoffs have been really good. Two games this weekend went to overtime and yeah, had us on the edge of our seats for our bets with the Rams and the Bears game right up until the last minute and well in the overtime anyway. So yeah, pretty good effort by the Bears, to be honest. Especially that touchdown at the the dire end of the game to level it up.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

big.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. After running backwards, taking his eyes off where everyone was and just turning around and sort of throwing it, that was unreal.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Mine, mine, Julie done it three weeks ago too, to win the game.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah. No, there's a lot of them that do do that sort of stuff. It still amazes me every time they do it, even when they catch it with one hand falling backwards and shit frigging, it's unreal.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

What amazes me is they can do that, pull that off, and then throw a simple pass to an interception.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, there's that too. I think the Bears got let down with both the interceptions they threw in the game.'cause they were, they were sort of on top for most of that game. Was it three?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

interceptions. He threw, he threw

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

interception, which led to the Rams

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

To win

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

scoring. In, in overtime? Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

if

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. I,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

interception, they would've won that.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

They,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I went, I went to bed.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

they were going down the field to win then.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Reckon they beat the Seahawks this week. If they did go through though.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

see all's shown what they're made of there on the weekend, I

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

They did dominate that game, eh?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Well, they dominated from the kickoff

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah, I don't, I know I've been saying that I think the Rams are gonna be in the Super Bowl after the performance the other day. I, I think they're lacking a little bit and they'd be very lucky to get past the Seahawks. I think the Seahawks are gonna be a little bit too professional and put the sword through'em. Um, yeah, the only other game I got to watch was the Pats and the Texans. Not a bad game. I could watch the end of it, I think. And um, yeah, the Pats went through fairly easily in the end of it, so. Yeah. Oh, I still credit to the Texans though. They went one further than they did last year, so, yeah. And I think the biggest drama is gonna be the Broncos lost their, their, um, starting quarterback for this week up against the Pats. And now I think the Pats have the upper hand. Well, the Broncos are missing a quarterback. So

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

well the, the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

you need all your

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

quarterback that's filling in for the Broncos, is that Jared? Oh, I can't

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Well, we.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

name. Jared. Yeah. But, um, he, he was the fill in for when Brady was at the Patriots.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Probably not a bad spot to be.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

he, he's only had, I think I, I was reading there earlier of, I think he's had only started three times this season or

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

like

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Sometimes the backup quarterback comes in and does a good job. That's how Brady got his, his job as the quarterback. The, um, Pat's had the highest paid quarterback in the, in the competition at the time, and he'd done his knee and Brady went in and never gave that spot up ever again. So

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Brady. Yeah. Brady is the best quarterback now, or was?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

was, yeah. Yep. So unlucky for the bills went out and, um, over time, but they're unlucky with it. But they've also ack their coach now, so they're moving on looking for a new coach. There is a lot of teams looking for new coaches this season or this off season anyway, so the only one that's been filled is the,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

the ra. The ra, the Ravens former coach is now the New York Giants coach and one of the, or one of the, um. Coaches that interviewed for the Ravens job is now an advisor or the offensive coach for the New York Giants as well. So yeah, New York Giants weren't fucking around with a sign in anyone anyway, so yeah. But that's last week. This week. New England, Denver Res Seahawks. Who have you boys got? I I, I'm on the, I reckon it be Pat's Seahawks

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

been

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Super Bowl next. Oh, well two weeks. Yeah. No, I know.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

three, that the Pats will be playing Super Bowl this year. So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

That's only'cause you support.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I'm not going jump off the bandwagon. Um, but yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I nearly jumped on the Bears Beer wagon the other day. I felt good to watch.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

um,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

didn't have a team, I'd probably be a Bears fan right now. But I'm still a Ravens fan.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

from that too. Like

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh yeah. No, they were, they were a very good attacking team the other day, and even their defense wasn't that bad. Like, you know, it's not, they didn't lose by that much. They got overtime. So, you know, it's credit to'em, I'd, I wouldn't have backed them from the start of the season to end up where they did.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

what I couldn't understand was, um, the fourth quarter, I can't remember who it was between fucking, and there was like two minutes to go and then that's it. They just called the game. Uh, who was it against?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Was that for a, was that for a, um, personal foul or something? Or for a unsportsmanlike conduct?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

No, no, no,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

There was one that was unsportsmanlike conduct.'cause if someone did something, I think that was one of the games that I was asleep. So I don't actually know much about it, but it might've just, it might've just been simply the case of they had no timeouts and they had possession or something like that. So, yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

no. They just, they, that was it. They, there was two minutes ago and they were all walking on the field. The two coaches met in the middle of the field with like a minute 30 to go, just shook hands they called the game. So yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Uh, I don't know. I dunno.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

it was, it

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

one of the games. I can't remember which one it was.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

sometimes, sometimes those scoreboards and stuff at the bottom of the screen on ESPN are, are not. Right.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

no. Well, this, like the other team, they were, they weren't winning. They couldn't win.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

think

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yep.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

they just called it, called it game where they

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Call it a draw. Come back next week.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

oh, I think

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yep.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

the other coach just said, oh look, we can't get it. That's it. Like, I think they needed a touchdown then a field goal, touchdown convert and a field goal to win with. Yeah. And

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

no, they can't do it.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

What I was surprised with that Bears game though, in, do you just go for the two point attempt? Take the one you take, the one you draw, which I did go to overtime. You've got every chance of winning it that

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think, I think that's just a strategy thing.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Well the thing

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

can, you can.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

but I'm thinking going for that two point attempt, then you're probably gonna catch their defense off because they're gonna be thinking they're gonna come out, get the one we're going overtime.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, you can definitely do it. I'd I, I'd be surprised if some teams didn't try to do it, but when you, when you look at the way that their overtime's run, you, you have to defend one one lot and you still get a reply. So you still get the ball back to attack again, and you back your offense then as well. So,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

right. It

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

you know, it's,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

and fro for that next 15

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah, it just, it, it's the same with going for it on the fourth, like the bears. The bears went for it on, on fourth down a couple of times when they could have kicked a field goal that would've made a difference, then got pulled up short. It's just, it's just the coach, the coach's opinion on how they run those plays and stuff like that. Like

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I'm a

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

N-R-L-N-R-L?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

running backs. When they're going short and doing runs, they'll making no meters at all.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

stopped. The only way they'd really made meters was pass'em.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

getting, yeah, they'd done a few of them like on four downs, which just,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

and they lost three

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah. No, it just depends on the coach a lot. Some of them back themselves, back, their offense on the fourth down when they're that close to the line. Some of them don't. Some of'em just take the field goal, take the points, and go up the other end. It's just a, depends on the coach really. Because like coaches in the NRL, they'll give you a game plan, do your training through the week and stuff like that, but their communication to the players. Is the water runners sending out a message or something like that? That's all pre-planned and stuff? No, not anymore. Not during play. They can still do it. They can still do it in a stoppage. Yeah, but they can still do it in a stoppage.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I, um.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

If you've got a scrum or pen, like you know, there's a stoppage in play injury, they can still run messages out.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

able to, they're not gonna have time to get out there doing scrums.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Nah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Uh, maybe depends how long it takes'em to pack it. They've got 30 seconds to pack it, so

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

gonna pack it straight away to keep those

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. But you only have to go to the closest wing and hand him a water bottle and a message and he can get it through to the rest of the plot team.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

if that other, that other team's got that scrum packed, it's, then it becomes a penalty because that trainer's on field.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, but he doesn't have to be on the field. That's what I mean. Like, he can be there, you know, but in the NFL, they've got speakers in their helmets and talk to each other and all sorts of shit. You know, the, the quarterback and the coach work in tandem to come up with results and you gotta, you gotta trust your quarterback to make a good decision when they make a call. And the quarterback needs to be able to make the call and over call the coach sometimes for what they see on the field that that's how the good ones operate. So it's just different sport. Different, different, different people have different ways of looking at things. Just like when Wayne Bennett used to always take the two, because he was guaranteed points that way, used to do it all the time. And that's why he always did do it. And other coaches didn't. They tried to score them more, more points. So, you know, just depends on the coach, the outcome.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

If I'm Williams though, after throwing that touchdown pass, I'm telling the special team to piss off.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. Or yeah. Yeah. But if you tell the special teams to piss off, they, they, they're already gonna know what you're doing. If you leave your quarterback out there, the only way that you're gonna do, it's, if you have the kicker, throw the ball, which happens occasionally,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

know what I mean?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

yeah, I know.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Like the quarterback doesn't have to throw the ball, other people can throw the ball.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

yeah, but he, he can be out there as a, um, as a decoy.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, but they, yeah, but they'd be set up for, they'd be set up for the quarterback to run it, like, yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

my network

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

They do that sort of stuff all the time where it goes to a running back and the quarterback runs around in behind the line and gets thrown the ball in the end zone. I think that happened this year, I think.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

happen a lot, but, yeah, I don't know. I'm, I'm just thinking risk get or nothing. Get after it.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. No, I a hundred percent agree.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

that's just a, a type of coach I was, you know, just risked it for the biscuit.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. But it's, it just comes down to a professional opinion, I suppose. So, yeah. What El, what else are you seeing this week?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Sunny, Sonny, Luke signs of the Cowboys.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Back up Hooker.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I think he could very well play 14.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, it hooker.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

He can play in the halves too.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I haven't seen him play love.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

come outta that Penrith system. Like there's, he, he's gonna bring something and there's games. He did play for Penrith. There was nothing wrong with

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

he played.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh, I've got nothing wrong. Nothing against him.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I think it's,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I just think, I just think Mahome, he's gonna be a better option to start hooker for you.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

he will start there.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Um, I did say that Luke Metcalfs out with his ACL until like round seven or something, which is gonna be a big impact on the Warriors.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

what they reckon. Yeah, around seven, but mid,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Does that bring, does that bring Jet Cleary into play to start the season?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

think so.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

no. They'll run, they'll run with either or. Um,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

If, if Jet,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

or the other young fella that they bought, I can't think his name.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Jet Cleary was gonna get an opportunity, he was gonna get it in the last couple of rounds of last year

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

he was on fire playing reserve grade. Uh,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I guess I can see how he goes in the trials too,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

so

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

if he goes out and kills it in the trials. I think you give him an opportunity,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Both slightly.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

they might very

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

but

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

carry him as the 14 and start

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

maybe,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

like Tamari Martin.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

see. The Warriors have broke another, uh, NRL record too.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Well having the,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

No, they're the first team to sell out a stadium the season even starts.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

yeah, because Mount

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

If every round or just be round one.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

It's Warriors. Warriors, Cowboys.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

at Christchurch as well. They're the only, they're the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

they're the only team that has ever sold out a game before the season has even kicked off.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

how do you know it was the Warriors could have been all those traveling supporters, borders

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

No, I've seen it today. Yeah. No,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Cowboys bought out all the tickets,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

so.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

The warrior,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Getting sick of the heat.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

The Warriors keep doing what they done last season. Every home game. Just spell it out. But they are the least, they have the least home games out of everyone in the column. The Warriors?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Yeah. Well, that

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Is that'cause they give up a home game for magic around.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

No, that's not their home game anyway. Oh yeah, it is. No, no,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

but they're, they're like, they're all less and the team above them.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

it'd be,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I didn't know that. That's a bit shit. I thought it was equal.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Nah, Broncos got the most home games.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Broncos always do.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

They just play it home anyway. Yeah, they should. They really should rotate where magic rounds played. It shouldn't be just in Brisbane

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Hmm.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

for, for that reason. So, but Bronco Broncos get big TV numbers, so

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

but I, I

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

all that shit.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

the first magic round. Bronco shouldn't play that weekend.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

should be their buy. There's, there's.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Broncos get the most TV ratings?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Because

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

'cause they're the

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

fucking team that only plays Friday night games.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, there's that too.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Of course, they're gonna

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

team, uh, the view ratings because they're the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

ones that play on those games. you put

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

in there, you'll, they'll get more ratings.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

and you got

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

supporters, like Jonesy that's got three TVs with the one game on it.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Fucking idiot.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Uh.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

the storm matures still trying to pursue Lomax. The NR l's looking at stepping in, they offered 200 grand of the eels. The eels want a player in compensation. The storm said, we're not giving you a player. I think, I think the eels have agree under stand on. I don't think there's really anything the NRL can do because that$200,000 isn't going in. They're not getting a bigger cap because of it. It's not gonna help'em out on the field whatsoever. And they've just lost a New South Wales, you know, a representative

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

doesn't matter.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

winger.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I should give, give him, um, Ellie guitar for the season.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. Because he is not playing.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

It really, it, it really doesn't matter. The Lomax offered himself back to the eels and eels turned him down. Free signing to any other club

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

right.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Eels had the opportunity to take him back because they kept the money that they'd already offered him for his seasons anyway, they turned him down. Move on. You can't have

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

No.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

and eat it all the time.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

the thing. If Earl don't want him back,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh, no.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

be free

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

But neither, neither can Lomax Lomax can't just go, oh, I don't wanna be in a contract and just tear the contract up and then whatever he goes on doesn't work.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

The the players do it all the time. So why is Lomax now the one getting singled out?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

That was the, that was the legal, the, the, the legal decision. That was the, what he accepted.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

He also

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

he signed, he signed the thing to say that he, he will not play for another NRL club unless the eels approve it. And he signed off on that

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

and

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

and now he is kicking,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

because he was also told that he has to come back to Parramatta first. He's gone to Parramatta Parramatta said, no,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think he should at least have to sit out 12 months because you gotta, you gotta put some sort of frigging thing on there to deter other players from doing it.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

never gonna

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

You need to give him a reason to see out their contracts and not just willy nilly backwards and forwards.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

There's no loyalty anymore and you're never gonna stop it.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

No, I, I still reckon that if you broke a contract, you sit, you sit out for 12 months, you don't play for any team for that 12 months If you are homesick, doesn't matter. So. Unless you get a like for like trade or you are the team's happy with the trade with players, but at the same time, you can't just go to a player and go, look, we want you to go to this club. We don't want you anymore.'cause they don't have to. They've got a contract that, that the team must up holds. So yeah. All right. He is ready for our NRL previews for this week. I think we've got, uh, I think it was Dolphins, dolphins, bulldogs, roosters. So we'll start with the dolphins. Zach, what's your thoughts on the dolphins this season?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Miss the finals again.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Miss the finals.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Mid table. Yeah. I've let go of a few players, a couple of old warriors that have fucking moved on now too. So yeah. I. They're, they're running. got'em in in 11th.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

11.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Yes. 11th

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Uh, I think that,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I said

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah, I know that's what you said. I'm trying to find, I'm trying to find my letter to revamp

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I've got mine in the, in the bottom eight.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

then. Yeah. No, you've done really well there, Hoover, you've, you've hit that nail right on the head.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Nah, nah. I've got'em in the bottom of the top eight.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Bottom of the top eight. So seventh or eighth or

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I got him six.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

six. You, you are the dolphins in six.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

You are optimistic. Look at how they, they crumbled last year. I lose fucking couple of players. A lot of lot of teams done it, but.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Well, I, I was thinking when I was going through it, the dolphins were coming on strong at the end of last year. They had a new coach, first year coach, as a first grade coach. They were coming on good. Kato was going good. You know, Nima was getting a little bit of a halves combination going there. They picked up Cabo, which is gonna be a bit of a strike weapon, like when you look at their centers and the outside backs. They've got some real strike out there, and it's Wolf's second year, another year with coach. And he is done the whole Tongan thing and, you know, brought them up as well. So he is not, he's not a bad coach. Um, it. I don't think he gets much pressure if they start poorly, but he'll have to finish strong. If he has a poor season all over, they might look elsewhere, but they're one of the better teams last season. And, and to be honest, they're one of my dark horses. I don't have them in the eighth. I have'em finished in, I think it's 10th. No, I've got'em finished in 10th.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

10th. You said

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

hey,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

you said

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I said 10th. So, but in saying that they could go on a bit of a run and be around the middle of that middle of the ladder. They could, they could run through to the grand final and it probably wouldn't surprise me,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Oh, I don't see him in the grand final.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

oh, uh, I think they, I think they could make a run at the finals and, and cause drama. That's why they're me. Dark horse.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

they lost two players last year, back end of the season and it derailed the whole season.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Herby

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think, I think their depths. Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Rima.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Is

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

They had no

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

the depths coming through though?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

to play with Kaa. And he felt the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

to do it all himself. Nico is now getting on in age

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

and he's

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

is,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

gonna get little niggles.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Keto another full season under his belt full preseason? Is he gonna be able to stand up and live up to the hype?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. I think he will.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

got great showings that he can be a great halfback, but

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh, he is a great organizer. Halfback. He's kicking games. Great. And he's game management. He's gonna be, he's gonna be a superstar by the end of his crew,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

so

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

so yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

do,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

It

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

just needs to find that half. I think if they just find that half, half partner that it can take the pressure on him. I think it takes the dolphins up a a lot. Like they've got a pretty good team. Like, I don't, I don't think they're gonna be too far back. I don't, I, I don't see'em dropping too far. I think they'll be around about the same. It'll just depend whether or not they crack the ate this year or not. So, yeah. But yeah, then I've got'em down as me, me, dark horse. So

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Cabo on the winger in the centers.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Wing.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah. I would run in his wing.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Well, you've still got, you've still got farm worth there. He doesn't displace farm worth. And then you've got a as well, and I wouldn't be moving a,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

didn't a illa

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think that best, Hey,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Isn't a getting moved on,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

after this season, I think, I don't think it's this season, so.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

but, uh, uh,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

the, yeah. You gotta keep Cobo happy.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

have, yeah. They, they found that out. When he was happy he played great football. If he gets

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

he is done. He's overpaid

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Cabo Cabo also wanted to play fullback too. He is not a fullback. He wa

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Uh,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

wasn't, he wasn't getting in that

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I, I think, I think he can,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

he? He,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think he can, but I don't think, uh, I don't think he's a, in the, in the back line ball playing type fullback.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Uh, he's very much like the Trell Mitchell.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah, but the thing

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. But

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

at,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

lall a little bit,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

at Brisbane, you weren't putting Cobo over Walsh as fullback at the Dolphins. You're not putting Cobo over, um, what's his name? Dolphins.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

the hammer.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Hammer. Yeah. Yeah. You're not putting him over him either, really?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

no. And then they've got

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

depends.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

they've got Tray Fuller there as well.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

be really looking at the games closely.'cause you can, you can quite easily slide the hammer wide and give him a little bit of width and have Cabo slide back inside and organize that line.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Mm. Well the Hammer

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

We've

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Wing,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

all seen the hammer out wide open space, hard to catch.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Cobo Cobos a strong ball carrier, so I, I I don't think you put him in the centers because he is too valuable bringing the ball back on the, the start off set.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

He's a strong ball

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

That that's the only thing.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

wants to play, that's the thing.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. Yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

wants to play. Yeah, he's good. Same

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yep.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Mitchell, when he wants to play, he's one of the best players on the park. But when he doesn't wanna

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yep.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

you won't see him.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. No, that's fair enough. Alright. Uber, how do you think the bulldogs are gonna go?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I got him sitting in eighth. I don't, I don't like'em sitting in eighth. I don't think they, yeah, I don't know. I don't even, I don't think they'll make the top eight, but I've got'em sitting in eighth.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I was saying just before I seen a photo of creep critter and he is ripped a shit.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

but

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

you see that every season where players come out like that

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

they're

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

you think they're gonna have a Yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

and that,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

but like they,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I seen a prediction there. They'll say dogs could be anywhere from first to fourth, the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

'em. But they floor can be anywhere between 11th to 15.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah. I think they've gotta sort out how to play Burton and VIN together.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Well,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I don't think

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Um.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

you just

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I, I was listening. No, was listening to. Mason the other night, and I actually 100% agree with Mason. And you move Matt Burton to 13

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

and,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I, I'd do that.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

you've got a number seven that's playing in reserve grade at the moment. Apparently he's the next bee's knees to come out of

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

You play him beside, um, old Galvin there, Galvin back to six and just let Galvin do his little fancy fucking Yeah. I can actually see Burton going to 13. an extra ball playing six. He's only wearing the 13 on his back.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

kick, he

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

You can still defend as well.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

float. Well, I, I think that's, that could be, he's. Only downside is his defense where he can keep up with the extra tackles

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh, when he was playing center. When he was playing center, his defense was really good. That's why he was such a good center as well as his strike,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

also out a lot wider P 13. He's gonna be tucked inside

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think. I think you'll be fine.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

tackling the bigger blokes.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, I think, I think you'll be right.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

defense. He's, he's outside his second rower and

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

his center. So he's still Yeah, that, I think

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

could be where he is. He's out.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think it's gonna look pretty positive for the Bulldogs.'cause Galvin's got a full preseason now, gets to know the boys, you know, gets around them. Creighton's still there. That can still produce magic moments now and then, you know. The coach is secure. I don't think, I don't think he's gonna be going anywhere. So, um, they've had a really good season, but I've got'em, they'll, they will have a good season, but I've got'em dropping outta the eighth. Eighth this year. And that's literally only because of other teams and their movements and stuff. Because the Bulldogs were one of the best teams last year. Like, and they were, they were close to matching it with the Broncos, Penrith, all those other players. So teams. So, you know, that's what I mean by that. There's about six teams outta the eight that could end up in the eight. And I wouldn't be surprised. It's, it's gonna be a really close competition this season and you know, you can't fit all the teams into the eight. Some have to miss out. I've got other teams ahead of the Bulldogs and I think they're one of the ones that'll drop out, but I think they'll come back better for it next season. Um. Have you got'em?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Sixth. Alright. I, um, yeah, I think they just, they fall a little from last season simply because had such a good run. I

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

got a lot I harder games this year. Like they,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

they,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I've got.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

they won, they blew teams off the park at the start of the year, just pure attack and towards the back end, other, the defensive sides just played on it and them and that's when they started losing a few games, I think, unless they'd come off and, Blow'em up. Teams outta the park again. I don't think if they have to get into that grind, they'll get beat. So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

they will.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

well I've got, I've got the Raiders in eighth and the Bulldogs could easily finish above the Raiders, but the Raiders won the mining premiership. I couldn't take'em outta the eighth completely. So,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Yeah, I did.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Well see, I've got

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

five teams there that I can slot in as eighth spot.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So the,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think it's gonna be a pretty close competition from one through to oh, 13 maybe.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

No, I reckon the top four are pretty well. The

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

no,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

got, I've got mine. I reckon they're pretty safe.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, I think, I think my top four are guaranteed an eight spot, I think bottom, bottom eight. Ah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Hmm.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

so all right, roosters,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

three pack.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

they gain robson. They, they gain the roosters, gain Robson, and they gained DCE. They've still got a very young team with two experienced players coming in. I think D C's gonna make a big difference to see'em Walker in the halves with helping him out and doing that organizing and show his experience. But I think Robson's gonna be the, he's gonna be their best signing that they're gonna have.'cause his work ethic defense and Dummy Half works really good. And I think they've been lacking that a little bit at Open. Someone like Cotton Watson to play lock, or at 14 at least. So I, um, I had trouble with placing the roosters because I think they've been, they've always been that team that you expect to make the eight every season and then they come close or only just scrape in. I've still got'em doing the same thing and then seventh, so I, um, yeah, I think they make the eighth. I think DC E's gonna make a organizing sort of difference, but I think Robson's gonna be the biggest sign in that they've had,'cause they're fought packs unbelievable with Wyatt and you know, a few of those other players that are coming through, they've still got Radley, so

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

he is on the park,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. When he is on the park. Yep. We've got Za out wired his last season. Oo, he's been, he's been great for his whole career and hasn't really slowed down probably his last season. So it'd be a little bit of turnover next season. Then you got, you've got Tedesco running off a DC or a Robson in the middle of the park with a ball as well. Like Esco will never let you down, so they've got a very, very good team. It'll be just. Nice to see how they actually run as a team, to be honest.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Uh, I like how you said they're a young side. They're, they're not that young.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Pretty

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh, the, through the Fords and that they are,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Not really. All those Fords have been around for a while.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

uh, I think they're a pretty young side. They've still got a lot,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Watson

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

and we are,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

around for 15 years.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

he hasn't,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

about young is 18, 19-year-old.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think, I think they're, I think they're at the maturity of there's a premiership there for the taking and they've just got a, you know, they've got, put the experience in there that can take him to that next level.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Walker's coming into his sixth season, like he's been around for a while. Bradley's

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

already, I've already said that I'm not, I'm not the biggest fan of seeing Walker. It. He makes it up on the go, on his head and Yeah, it,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

It

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

it's so

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

it?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

not really, he doesn't want a premiership,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

just scrapes into the finals.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

that's working for him. Are you playing in the NRL?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I'm not.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

you

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

just saying it's,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

even fucking tackle about get yourself knocked out.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

that was one time.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

You've had more,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

after that.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

at least

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

No.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

tries to go back next week.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. Well,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Uh,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I do have

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Alright.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I think. Yeah. Robson's. Yeah. Fuck the roosters. I want Robbo back. It will be

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

to see how Robinson plays Trent Robinson in. Yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

style that the roosters like to play, I, I, I am very interested in seeing how Robson adjust to playing that.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

No, it'll be interesting. I can agree with that.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

but yeah. DCE,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think they're in for a good season if those players can stay on the field, because

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

that,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

they do have a lot, they do get a lot of injuries.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

that's the big thing. You even D C's career, there's not major injuries, like a couple little niggles here and there. He missed a couple of weeks, but had a

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

He's getting the back end of his career. We all know this tedesco

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Well, I,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

thing

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

end of his career. Like they're,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

ACL away from retirement.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I think the best thing for the roosters is that Savilla stayed, so he's gonna stay, stay there. He's not moving on somewhere else looking for another opportunity.'cause I think their future can be built around him, not necessarily in the halves. It be like, like you said, with Burton moving to lock or something like that. But he, he's a very good player. And to have a player like DC with the experience from rep games and everything that he brings to that team is gonna be just a benefit to him.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Like you could, you could very well nearly play him at 13,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh yeah. A hundred percent. A hundred percent.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

of that. Train him

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

He's still very young though.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

doesn't matter. Give him

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

playing beside DC, you gotta move Walker to six as Silla

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Well, Walker Walker has. Yeah, Walker has a lot of injuries as well. Like he hasn't got through a whole season yet,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

so I think s Villa's opportunity will come and if he takes it with both hands, hey,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Walker is skinnier than Jonathan Thurston. Like he's, very,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah, I know that. I just,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

very bony. Like

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

and not much meat on the little fella.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

you've got plenty of meat you can give you.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Uh,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Wonder Talk.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

where do you have a move?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I third,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

What

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

yeah, I got'em up, up the top, top four. I do, I,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

heaps of

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

really don't like my top four.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

you don't?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

am interested in your reason behind them moving that high up the ladder.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I reckon DC is going to spark it for him. He's gonna be another Cooper Cronk gonna come in there and I reckon, yeah, he, he's, he hasn't got many seasons left in him. Neither does de Tesco either. Like we just said. I reckon they'll play outta their skin this season. They haven't, they haven't gotta really worry about origin.'cause I don't see Tadesco making origin again this year. They don't have to worry about any of that. So all they've gotta do is just focus on their game. Like you said, Robson good pick for the hooker and all that.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I, I think well see. They do have origin'cause they're gonna lose robo.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

You're gonna, you're gonna lose DCE. He's, he's gonna go into camp whether he plays for the Maros or not. I think he goes into camp just for his experience and who else he got. You know, Connor Watson will go into camp for the blues,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

and this all depends on how plays for the Sharks and how he starts a season. If he comes out and starts a season like he played last year, I think he becomes a Blues nine this year. And Robson and Watson, one of them misses out, can't have all three of them in the camp.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

No, you can't. You, no. Maybe Braley comes in and fills that. 14 Robson keeps his incumbency.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So, but Braley coming in and like, it's only a nine for nine then like Connor Watson playing

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Hmm.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

he's got that ability to play in the centers come on at 13.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

but you've got, you've got six on the bench now.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

That'll apply to origin as well, that six on the bench. So that utility player doesn't, you could have an out out hooker

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

to cover hooker.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

means Burton might actually. Where the 18

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

plug.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

get out on the field,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

that, that, that's gonna be a new thing this year is that you're gonna have a 1819 player and you know, do you go with two extra backers at 18 point 19 in case something happens and stock the other four up with Fords? Or, it's gonna be interesting to see what their strategies are gonna be for it, but I don't think, I think they've killed the utility player.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Be

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I think,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

run second rowers as as centers and wingers.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

well that was,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

do.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

that's my

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. Because New Zealand players are all the same size.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah, they

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I think,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

run that good.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

18th man. Yeah. He'll be, I think

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

be all hiding in the shade.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

nah. A couple of rivers that run through it. So it is, a good opportunity to get out there and get a few pigs, but the, um, yeah, you fire too many shots A barrel heats up to pretty quick. So

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

just keep in mind ladies and gentlemen, both Hoover and I and shooting for a lot of years, we have taken Jason shoot and he probably should stay away from hunting simulator.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Well, there's no fans around,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

the hunting simulator, he might be all right at it. He, he's not gonna jump into the fan and he won't attempt to shoot his foot off.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah. But the thing is, it'll be dark with it on, so you'll get scared and he'll try and run to people and leave the, and just disconnect the spotlight on us all.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

uh, whatever, whatever.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

That's why I got

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

well,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

straight away.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

oh, well, do you wanna do the bonus question?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

the bonus question.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Zach wins it. I just wanna get rid of this one. Um,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

You give it away when you said that he, um,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

was the assistant coach of the North Queensland Cowboys, I thought it might've, where's the thing on name? The team. This team is an NFL team. They have the third oldest franchise in the NFL established in 1919.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

the Ravens.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

No, the Ravens came into the competition in 1996. Zach, do you wanna have a guess?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

you gotta finish the question. That was the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

No, no, no. Oh. They are the only nonprofit community owned major league professional sports team based in the us. They hold the record for the most wins in NFL history. They play at Lambeau Field. They won the first two Super Bowls under Vince Lombardi, which the Super Bowl trophy is named after. Their colors are dark, green, gold and white.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Um,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

That doesn't help.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

no, just shining the light on it.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

For real.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Why not?

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh, this is an NFL team. They are the third oldest franchise in the NFL established in 1919. They are the only nonprofit community owned major league professional sports team based in the us. They hold the record for the most wins in NFL history. They play at Lambo Field. They have won the first two Super Bowls under Vince Lombardi, which the Super Bowl trophy is named after.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

You can call Hoover.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, green Bay Packers. I don't know why they never say yellow.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

they're

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

in the cloud there,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

you'd just have to go back. And I'm

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Still a pain in the ass to come home and hold me into all your games off the PlayStation. You gotta wait for him to load back on.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Well, I wanted to get more to combat and Yeah. I didn't have enough space, so I just thought

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I can't get into Mortal Bat that

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

finish him.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I just can't. I can do the boxing game that I've got, but that's about as far as I get with fighting games. Otherwise I can't.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

It's just mashing a controller to me. That and tech in, I can't get into them.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

mind the odd UFC game. they're very,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

UFCI can sort of do, but not for ages,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

shits me with tears. Like,'cause you go through, you do all these, same with boxing. You do all these preps and everything, and starting to build your way up through the thing. And then you, just hit the age where you gotta retire.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

undisputed. It's not like that. Undisputed you've got undisputed is actually really good. I was Australian champion there at one stage. I actually thought about re-download that the other day. I don't mind undisputed, that one's set up really good.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

so I haven't looked at

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

So

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

too,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah, I think I'll go back and forward trying to play the wrestling games and I just can't get into'em. I used to like'em when I was younger, but I don't really watch wrestling anymore. And yeah,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

so I'm

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

so

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

of more games for the, for Piper'cause

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

used to

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Huh?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I dunno. That's all she does. She just hides and then Yeah, then it got, then the storm will come and then she'll just run. But yeah, she finished second. She had like five kills as well.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Fortnite. I fucking tried and I fucking hate it.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I just don't like the build and the building part of it. The rest of it's not too bad. I don't mind battle royals. That's why I like playing Red Sec and stuff. I don't,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

shit's me

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I don't actually mind it.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

downloading into the game and I got my gun.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Now Red Sec was all right when all three of us were there playing it

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

from me getting killed

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

and talking. Yeah. But it was the first time you'd ever played it. Plus me and Zach, me and Zach actually had the game and play the multiplayer too. So we,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

like we're pretty decent at it. So.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Yeah. Well,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

logged in a couple thousand

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

no, I think I've only got 200 and something that's not much fucking, I'm on like level 99 and there's people on there that are on level 240. I'm like, fucking hell. I finished, I did finish the, um, the, what's it called? The season pass or whatever it is. So the battle pack thing. So yeah, I've never finished a battle pack before, but I've completely finished the battle pack, so yeah, I might, I don't know. I was thinking of jumping on there later, but I gotta edit this and stuff, so. Yeah. But have you seen that, um, the PS six, they, they reckon that it's gonna be like fucking a switch where you've got a screen that you can take with you and stuff to play it portably.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

little portable one. That

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. Well, it's still got, you can still connect it to the TV and everything. I don't, I don't think they'll do that. That's a, it's gonna be a pretty powerful system, and I don't think you can do that with the Nintendo,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Um, yeah, but they were talking about a new PSP, so not

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

like I've got the portal. They were

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

the actual PSP where you can put the little diss in and there'll be a standalone system. Um,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah. I'd say download'em. I don't think you'd have to get disks. Surely

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

time. I think it will be a lot.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

it'll just connect to the wifi and just download it directly there.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

when I had the PSP it Yeah. Being a standalone system, it wasn't connected through PlayStation system, it wasn't linked with

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

No,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

So

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

no, they'll have it so you can link and stuff.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

But me,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

So.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

my portal's playing up at the moment. I was trying to play it the other day. Just would not connect with the PS five at all.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah, I haven't really got any use for it because I can't, like I can take it to work, but I'm not, I don't stop long enough to need it,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Yeah. It's

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Also,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

might as well

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

postpone

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

tomorrow,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

like going to a 10 over comp because it was just beer drinking from seven o'clock in the morning. And a little bit of cricket.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I suppose. We'd be exciting watching professional cricketers. Just sit around drinking and, yeah, that'd be all right.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

were only semi-professional. I wouldn't go as far as semi professional, but

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh, whatever.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Fuck off.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

I was professional mate. I was just there to fucking make runs I was

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Oh, I'll talk about, before we talk about it after the show's over Zoo Rafa Fight. What a letdown that was.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

of shit

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

That fight has been coming between those two families for a long time. And yeah, just called off like that, that that was, that was a shit outcome. So

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

uh

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

I didn't see it'cause I was in bed for work. But,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

He couldn't see either.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah. Well that was the problem, wasn't it? So,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

uh,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

got up Saturday morning and bit void.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah. No, I've seen that. I'm glad we didn't lose it. Like

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Oh

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

what we,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

like that, you don't lose it. So

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

worst

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

all your odds, so

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

yeah.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

all the

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah,

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

was, I, I probably nearly cash out before the NTUs game.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

yeah, for sure.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah. Well we got a pretty good cash out on the Bears game, so

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Well,

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

probably left it a bit

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

probably should have listened to me. Like I told you,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Let it ride.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

yeah. Yeah, well we cashed out and we've increased our little pot, so, um, yeah. What bets you've got this week?

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I am gonna, I'm gonna back Australian NBA games. Both my games are tomorrow night. Perth Wildcats versus CAIRs type ins.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

do that. Do that. Like pick whatever you want this

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Who are you picking? Well, cats or type pants.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Wildcats and Sydney King's verse Tasmania. Jack jumpers.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

You want the Kings ho

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Oh fuck.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Patty Pingit?

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

And

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Yeah. Just pick whatever.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

or Broncos? Hmm. Basketball.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

I, I definitely would not go the Broncos. I Broncos

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Well, I'm going, I'm going Pats and Sea.

squadcaster-jahc_1_01-21-2026_201145

Yeah. don't think Broncos win.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

So our bet for this week will be the Wildcats, the Kings pat, the Baddy Celtics,

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

is a really

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

pats, and the Seahawks.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142

Yeah, mate.

the-incoherent-podcast_1_01-21-2026_201151

Uh, that's all right. All right. Uh, due to technical difficulties and time constraints, I think that's buy from me this week anyway, so I will, um, yeah, recording a bit earlier next week. I might release it a bit earlier next week'cause otherwise it just doesn't, sport changes day to day. So three day old podcast won't survive very much so, um, yeah.

squadcaster-jabe_1_01-21-2026_201142
