The NRL is on Triple M. 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 learning to feel real at the moment. It's a tough game to play. Massive responsibility. Very, very good chance.
Wade Graham 0:30
On Triple M, this is NRL Daily. Welcome to Triple M NRL Daily on your Monday. A public holiday Monday for some parts of Australia. Us here in New South Wales doing the tough carry. Coming in on a long weekend. Everyone listening in Brisbane, just business as normal. It's Charlie White, we've got Wade Graham, Jimmy Graham. How are you boys?
Charlie White 0:48
Fantastic. I actually had a great weekend, a long weekend. As we know, Luke Keery and I swapped shifts, so I had Anzac Day off. It was my first one off in quite some time. It was good fun.
Wade Graham 0:57
Mate, good one to have off, Anzac Day. Did you go play tour?
Charlie White 1:00
I did.

How could signing with the PNG Chiefs impact Luai's career?

Charlie White 1:00
It was my brother-in-law's last day here in Australia, so it worked out that he got to experience a little bit of Anzac Day and took him in there. He got in the ring and had a throw, and then, as you know, all my days off, Charlie, golf after that.
Wade Graham 1:12
How bloody good. Jimmy Graham, how are you, my friend?
James Graham 1:15
Yeah, doing really well. Obviously, Anzac Day, as a visitor to this country, I respect it and I've got nothing but admiration for how serious this country takes this very important day. Very envious of a culture that celebrates its fallen and doesn't forget them. Incredibly important. And yeah, the football... But obviously plenty of points on display. The dogs, dismal. Wade and I were just talking about the Sharks game, which was a strange one. But all in all, going well, Charlie. And yeah, I enjoyed myself post-Anzac Day game.
Wade Graham 1:56
Very good, Jimmy. There's a lot to get to. Danny Wilder is going to join us very shortly to talk Jerome Luai's trip to PNG. We're also going to talk the blowouts on Sunday. Fozball, does he get... the full-time deal. We'll find out a bit later in the show. And also it took Melbourne and the Dragons. And quick reminder, if you want to give us a follow on Apple, Spotify, listener, or YouTube, it would be very appreciated. I know Jimmy Graham keeps a close eye on the, on the follower numbers on Apple. And you can listen wherever you get your podcasts. But if you're listening on Apple, leave us a review. We're currently on 212 reviews and we want to get to 250 by origin one. The best ones will be read out like this one, five stars.
Wade Graham 2:31
I can't believe how little Charlie is. But jokes aside, love the Sunday show and Charlie is very short.

What financial advantages do tax-free contracts provide for players?

Wade Graham 2:36
I'm actually six foot. I just carry myself short.
James Graham 2:39
But I'm actually six foot if you measure me. Maybe you're saying small. It's not a height size. It's a size. Oh, yeah.
Wade Graham 2:45
Well, that's fair then.
James Graham 2:46
That's fair. Yeah, yeah. You were looking. Obviously, everybody knows you did your 75 hard. Look, there's consequences for living that clean, and one of those was you turned into a stick, man. I did.
Wade Graham 2:58
I have lost a lot of weight.
Charlie White 2:59
You'd be taller than me, so you're not that short.
Wade Graham 3:01
Yeah, exactly. I know. I think there was a picture of me standing next to Tom Travojevic and the height disparity. Well, he's tall. He's tall. He's very tall. The man who's joined us on the line now, I'm trying to think if he's tall. He's quite tall. The great Danny Wydler. How tall are you, Danny?
Danny Weidler 3:14
That's an odd question to start with. You hammer really about Botox. You want my height? Okay, 5'11".

How might Luai's potential move affect the West Tigers' performance?

Wade Graham 3:21
Well, what height are you? It's not a seat. 5'11". Oh, you'd be six foot easily. 5'11". You carry yourself as tall.
Danny Weidler 3:27
Well, I don't know what that means, Charlie, but I believe you.
Wade Graham 3:31
Danny, big news though. Your man Michael Chambers has lured Jerome Luai to Papua New Guinea. What can you tell us?
Danny Weidler 3:38
Well, that's half the job, isn't it? The other half will be to convince him now that he's been there. He flew over, I believe, yesterday. Jerome, his wife. his manager, and they were given the full tour of facilities, where things are going to be built, apartments, where footy is going to be played, the kind of life they're going to live over there in the, I call it the compound.
