Shownotes Transcript

Now on Wide World of Sports, the Sunday Carve-Up. Just what I need after seven minutes of exciting rowing. Mark Piggy, Rodell and Josh Morris. Who's playing? Jay Moles and Pig, I tell you what, we've got some experts in here in the McDonald's Interactive Studio. They're across everything.

They call it before it even happens. Here's Butcher in the half a hole. You know what else we're into? We're across. Mackers. Rosters. Oh, here we go. When do you play next week? Sunday. Sunday 4 o'clock. I'm not calling that one. I think he's calling that one. Again, is he? Beautiful. I'll be up there. How good. Do some round the grounds for you. If you want, just give me a call. I'll be up there floating around somewhere. You won't be late. Will you turn up?

Yeah, I will. Hey, listen, otherwise... Yes! He did say you're a bit chubby and you need to stop eating and get off the burgers and all the stuff around the place. Yeah, I didn't stop eating burgers, I just ate less, I reckon. What could you do in a sitting? I'm interested in this. What about a fair dinkum sitting in the off-season, you're not trading, how many can you knock over, you reckon?

I'll finish five and then jump in the corner. Just a quick one from Lumpy before we get to a break. Levy, I was paying my neighbour 30 bucks a week to pick up the poo off my lawn. He was a great neighbour until he found out I didn't have a dog. Thank you, Lumpy. Lumpy was in a hurry. Now I've got no doubt, someone stuffs up every time there's a pothole.

I think I'm right. If everyone did their job properly... That's a surprise. No, well, hang on. But they're out there doing roads. Let me get up off the floor. I'll be honest, right. I actually enjoy watching people work. No, I do. So what do you really like about a stop-go person in their job? I like when they do it properly. I like when they're on the... So when you're a breaker, Darryl, you're a B-boy. B-boy. B-boy.

A big boy. A big boy. You ever done some breaking in your day, Big Mike? Breaking? I've broken a few things. I'm still doing it. Here's one for you, Geltman. Well, I did some BMX this morning with Sai Sakakibara before Bill did the gold medal run. Mate, I love the way you say Sai Sakakibara. That's a hard word to say. It's Sai Sakakibara. Or Sai Sakakibara. Hold on, which one? What is it? Sai Sakakibara. I will say Sakakibara if you want me to say Sakakibara.

Big man, who wins? Don't touch that sense. Don't touch that dial. What's happened? There's man down. Penalty dragons. Man down. What's happened? Gallant's down. He was trying to peer

went around. Pick him up! He fell off the chair. I'm okay. Medics! Medics! Get someone in here. I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm okay. What happened there, Paul? I got excited. I put my hands back and went back and just went straight off the back. This is dramatic stuff. When Gow played under Flannau, he said that in team meetings, he'd forget players' names. I note last night, Flannau struggled with Nelson Osofa Solomona's name. Here he is. Go out there and

make tackles and put yourself in front of Nelson Asopamona running hard. That's when he's probably got his wood duck or the other one is if someone's got a headgear on he just calls them the helmet. Wasn't he trying to buy Nelson Asopamona? Shane donates a lot of his time to us when he's available to speak to us. Donates? Well, last night he did it for free, Daryl, and we went down to him and we just said, Shane, how's that playing surface look? What's the field look like?

Yeah, the actual surface has got, you know, grass right across it, as you would expect at this stadium. But it is wet. The grass is wet. First grade rugby league games. He might have been doing that last night because it was a bit slippery. You know what he's dirty on? And I can add him on this. He's dirty on a dating app. Oh, no, yeah. A couple of days ago, plenty of fish was out of action. He had a date planned and couldn't communicate with her. Even when he's on the date, he can't communicate with her. LAUGHTER

Imagine the day would go, it says, Karen, g'day. My name is Chris. Warren, as in Ray. Warren. Oh, that's a fine looking top you have on there. Would you like a pre-dinner drink?

Screener for Karen, thank you, champion. I'll have a pint. Do you reckon he was having dinner there? These are my boys, they're all here. He was at dinner at the table and he calls the waiter over and he goes, can somebody clean this glass on the window? I can't see out of it with my binoculars. No, he says to the date, do you want a drink? No, he doesn't want a drink. She's got a skull, no! No, you're not, darling. LAUGHTER

Come home and see my boys. Brenda, a very important question. Can we film this? What are you wearing whilst doing this particular dance? That would depend on the brief. Well, we want it as brief as possible. When you said can-can, I wasn't thinking about the dance. I want you to give me the last 200 metres of a race at Rambic.

Levy's in front at the moment, closely followed by Breeney. Breeney just in behind him, tailing up the field. He's big man in the peak. They're not going to make it. They're not going to make it, Dan. It's Breeney and Levy. Breeney, Levy, Levy in front. Levy's going to get there. Levy wins!

Levy by nose. I've never won anything in my life. And they race past the 200 and the big man carrying that huge imposter, top weight of 71 kilos. He's in front, but he's hit a wall. Levy's coming at it.

Oh, and look at Piggy McDonnell! Right now, he's shot at a seagull! Ladies come through, ladies want it! Well, at the 200-meter mark, Brady the Blow-In! He's in front! I don't know why, because he comes up with crap stories, and he's got nothing in general, but he's two in front! Here's Democracy Manifest joining in! It's going to grab him! It is the Grey Shark Tag! Down the air! Oh!

Who's this? Harold Holt comes through the middle of wings. Brady, of course, is a big bunch of hot air. He's run last. Come on, repeat me or whatever that is. Second. And Chantarqua, the great second. Who won it? Oh, Harold Holt. Harold Holt won it. He's on fire. I'm glad we did that. That was very good. Very, very good. Darren's out there shaking his head. You wanted to do this.
