Dinner and beers gathering
A common dinner table hyperthetical question is who are your favourite people past or present that like like to invite around for a beer and a feed, warnie cal and roy head my list!! I always say win th morning win th day, so i always listen to thr poddies in th van on th way to first job of th day! They never fail to bring a smile and a chortle to my face! Love em
They call me Bruce ‘Reville’ Somebody 🤣🤣
Just jumped in to say, really enjoying the content, I’m SuperCoach relevant more than fantasy but have just discovered podcasts late last year and you guys are the funniest by the length of a torpedo!
Calling time
I just want to drop this is in here and say a massive thank you to you blokes. I have been a long time listener purely for the banter and your content has also helped me out massively with my game!( finished 6k club this year) Mainly as a shift worker your pod has been incredible on the long commute home after night shifts and early morning wake ups. My friends and family are not into footy let alone fantasy so I feel connected with you blokes even more. Unfortunately i won’t be able to tune in next season as my family and I are travelling the country in our caravan. Keep up the work fellas truly is an amazing listen and thank you all for being teachers ! Brett
