We would not miss this for the world. There was no way we were missing 6.01.
Oh, no, that's so unfortunate. That's Kane. Yes, they are. Yes, they are. They're missing it. They're not here. They're not here. Who would have thought the two people that talk about getting up early and doing the work aren't here? Tom Morrison, Sam Edmund with you this morning on Fireball. Kane is sleeping in. Not sure where King is. And it's a new look Fireball, Sam. Good morning to you. Kingy's been beaten by what he knows, let's be honest. And he's shouldered arms on this Monday morning. So we've been dropped into it, Tommy. Great to be with you. What a round of footy. I mean, Frio's latest flex, probably the most stunning of the lot. But then you had Zach Butters might have played his last game for Port.
This is just quickly here. Jeremy Cameron might be done for the year. Dima Hardwick versus guys who live in their mum's basement caught my attention. More score review drama, more umpire drama. The umpire just can't get away from the spotlight. There's a stack happening world sport. You're the subject of a global sporting manhunt this morning. We'll get to that. We'll get to that. But we had to decide this morning, do we want to be SEN Breakfast or do we want to be Fireball? Now, a bit of respect for Kane and Kingy off the top. They've built something truly special. They have built something that has become a cult. I get stopped at the footy. It's huge. With people saying, get your hands, all that sort of stuff.
Yeah, yeah. It puts me in an awkward position, to be fair. And we are, if we're going to be honest with ourselves, Sam, we are accessories to the Fireball brand. So you're a Fireball Friday guy. I'm a Fireball Monday guy. We're happy to be in the conversation, but we're not the lead singer. We're not the drummer. We're probably just out the back, just doing the work. You probably should have called it as it should have been called off the top. Fireball light, fake Fireball, fraudulent Fireball. I think fraudulent Fireball is probably what we are, if we're going to be honest with ourselves. Are we even going to be that? Are we going to try to be that, are we? You're so fired up for this, you've even brought merch in, which distresses me greatly.
I've got a hat, SCN Fireball, and I'm going to put it on my head over the feathers. Yeah, I'm not so sure about this. I'm going to wear it. I'm going to wear it. See, I was wary of imitating and not possibly hoping to be anything like those two. Sam, as you know- And you are embracing it fully.
Let's cut the absolute crap.
Can we just cut the absolute crap? You're all on board, I'm less so, but you've ruled the merchant. I can't believe it. As Kane would say, this is fireball. Don't pull any punches. Don't evade any bumpers. Get your head in the gutter. Get your nose in the trough and have a crack. We won't, but maybe we'll do it our way.
Do it our way, yeah.
Trying to impersonate those two, which would be impossible. If anyone does deserve a break, though, it's probably Kane, isn't it? You'd say that, but he also pins his entire reputation on not having a break. So it's a no annual leave mantra for them. Maybe it needs to be because that's their whole brand. So they'll return Monday next week. It's you and me on Friday again. And when they return Monday next week, I'd like them to explain themselves. Kingy's had two weeks off. What's going on? Timu Fireball's a nomination coming through. Timu Fireball. S-E-N Furball. I quite like fur balls. Righto, smartass. So anyway, no, we miss them. We miss them, but they're just having a wee little bit of time. But it's us this morning, and nothing is a bigger up yours to Kingy and Kane than if we start with some cricket.
I can't believe this. There's a lot happening in world sport at the moment, and it's become clear this morning that this is no exaggeration.
