Triple M footy lives on, listener. Thanks to McDonald's and Ream Hot Water. Here we go. We've got a game on our hands. The NRL is on Triple M. How about that? And we've got all the goss. Behind the scenes news on and off the field. From press conferences to inside the locker rooms.
I love being a part of it. I'm feeling real at the moment. It's a tough game to play. Massive responsibility.
A really good chance. On Triple M, this is NRL Daily.
Footy's finally here and two absolute greats are in the studio. Josh Grubby Reynolds and Wade William Graham. How are you, boys?
It's great to be back. Obviously another casualty somewhere on the roster list for me to be filling in on Thursday, but always a pleasure to be chatting away with you boys.
Yeah. Yeah, it happens on this show. Mate, we'll take anyone. One in, one out. And the best thing I love what happens is, right, so sometimes when we set out a time and I'm like, oh, boys, I just can't do it. They're like, sweet, no worries. I'm like, I'm going to be the stall horse to this side, you know, get this flick. Me like that. Mate, the writing's on the wall, mate.
You're missing some emailings as well.
I thought everything was going all right. I said the ratings.
It's good to have you boys out here. It's good to have you here. Obviously, the footy's back, and it's going to be a great weekend of footy. A bit of news going around as well, Tigers. Now, did you see Zaki Lomax as well, boys, before we previewed around? P&G.
Good signing if they get him.
Yeah.
Yeah, a short little stint in rugby. But, yeah, I'm not sure if it's – so he's obviously going to want to play in the World Cup.
Is he going to get picked? Because he's not part of this squad at the moment for the rugby championship or whatever sport, whatever league they're playing.
Yeah, he's not. You're right, because they're playing now, aren't they? Yeah. And he's not there. So not sure what his plan is, but Chambers is working his magic as he does. And, yeah, that'll be a massive sign if they get him later.
Yeah, well, if he's not playing in the World Cup, he's coming back. That little foray over to Rugby Union. He's a quality league player. We know that. He left at the top of his game. Origin, played for Australia. Wouldn't have a crack at Union. There was a contract situation with Parra in Melbourne. But if he's not featuring that World Cup, he'll be back. And P&G, if he goes there, great signing. We know what a quality player he is and what he brings to a team. So they're just ticking boxes. If Seamus has worked his magic again and gets that across the line, good luck.
It'll be massive. It'll be massive. They're building a team that could be playing finals for you almost year one.
It's early days, obviously, but... And you kind of want them to hit the ground running because you know they're just going to be such a big cultural club over there. They're going to mean so much to the country, to the people of PNG. And again... There's going to be so many opportunities for the players over there. We know Jerome, already the chat about some of his third parties, possibly he's got to do next year within PNG. But rugby league, and Grubber, you've been there before, yeah, playing footy. It's just another world when you go there. If you haven't experienced it as a rugby league player, they are fanatical. And I can only see that club doing positives in the community. And... It'd be nice for them to go well straight away.
Could Zach Lomax join the new PNG NRL franchise and what would that mean?
There's still a lot of water to go under the bridge and they need to sign a few more players. And we need to see how that living circumstance goes and how the players deal with the ups and downs and the rollercoaster of the NRL season in that situation. But yeah, they're doing everything right at the moment. And if they were to get Zach Lomax, another tick.
I'm not worried about the players. I'm worried about the families. That's the thing that I think is going to be hard, you know, because the players get to play footy still. They get that release. But, you know, for the families and the wives, I think they're the ones that it's going to be tough for them.
