Triple M footy lives on listener. Thanks to McDonald's and Ream Hot Water. Triple M footy is dialed in for your Saturday Arvo. Good to be back on Saturdays with the boys. Big names. Nathan Hindmarshway, Graham and Dave Riccio. Big opinions. Lomax wouldn't have made a lick of difference to that side. I think it's one of the weakest plays in Origin history. It's not a club, it's not mired by more drama. But not so big on facts. This is the Triple M Footy Saturday Scrum. Thirsty Camel. Camel on down to Thirsty Camel Bottle Shops for unseriously good deals. Drink responsibly. Here's Tony Squires.
Hello, everybody. Lovely to have you company. Thank you so much for sharing your Saturday afternoon with us. I hope the skies are as blue of you as they are right here. It seems to be beautiful. And certainly in Canberra, blue skies looked ahead of the Raiders taking on the Tigers. I'm joined by Shane Flanagan, Wade Graham and Dave Riccio and the entire delegation from the Shire. Are we all Shire boys? Oh, we are.
We all got leave passes. Yeah. Across the bridge. Takes a while to get the paper stamped. Well, we did it.
Well, me and Dave actually live about five houses away from each other, so I don't know why we don't carpool often. Particularly some of the states I come in on a Saturday morning as well. But not this week, Tony. I'm fresh. You do look fresh. I watched all the footy last night. I went to bed early and I'm looking forward to the show.
How far away are you from Fano's residential?
Not far enough.
LAUGHTER
Well, to be fair, I bought my house before Funno moved into his joint, so he moved closer to me.
Did you really? I did, yes. 2014, I bought mine.
I was 2011, mate, back end.
There you go.
So you came closer to me.
To be fair, he probably helped you buy the house.
The fact that he brought you to Cronulla. David Jennell, he helped me more than Funno.
No, I think I gave you a contract. David Jennell wasn't giving out contracts at that stage.
That's fair. I'll give you that one.
Tell me this, I know there are certain sports, Wado, that you get up early for or stay up late for. Is Commonwealth Games one of them?
No. It's only golf that I stay up for, Tony. Footy and golf, that's it.
What about, and Ashes?
Nah. I'll watch the Ashes when they're here in Australia, but I'm not waking up to watch test cricket, no. But I understand why some people do, because not everyone would like to wake up and watch the golf, but I enjoy that, Tony. They're my sports.
Yeah, when I heard the results this morning of the Commonwealth Games, I was disappointed because I love watching the swimming, especially the relays. And, you know, I think we've got six gold at the moment, Dave. Six gold. Yeah, so what a start, you know, day one.
Yeah, I think the men's 4x100 is their eighth or something, or the women's 4x100, their eighth in a row. It's just phenomenal. Great performance.
Yeah, outstanding. Like, we're always good in the pool, but to win gold on day one, it just sets us up for an outstanding Commonwealth Games, and I'll be definitely looking at when to tune in next. Yeah.
See, I love the Commonwealth Games because it is where you just win gold after gold. Sure, some of the countries have people's safety jumping into the water, but I just love it. I love it. It's brilliant.
So I was certainly... Tom, when will the debate begin that the Commonwealth Games is just as significant as your local school swimming carnival?
Oh, David. Oh.
When? When will that debate start? You starting it right now? I'm an Olympics guy.
Comm Games.
I don't know.
He'd have a different attitude if he was sent there to report for it. Well, maybe. I'll tell you. Absolutely. Where is it? It's in Glasgow. Glasgow. We're paying for it, aren't we?
Victorian government. We're contributing. Victorian government. It was originally supposed to be in Melbourne and then they moved it slightly north to go to Glasgow. They decided it wasn't really worth it here. But the Aussies looking sensational. As they always do. They're in the pool, obviously. is where we do shine. But looking forward to the next two weeks.
