This is Triple M's Rush Hour, the Pen Ride Oil, 100 Years Still Driven.
Happy Sunday, Jimmy Boy, and what a week we've had.
Actually, what a week I've had.
What do you mean?
Well, like usual Jim, I do everything on this show.
Look at what I've got coming up.
Topics Brownless, Tick.
Philly's top five influential AFL figures.
Tick.
Says here we've also got Dave Hughes.
He had nothing to do with getting him.
I rang him.
Tick.
What about North Melbourne Rookie?
Tom Blomias.
He plays for my club.
He's whole family barracks for the cats.
Therefore, a tick.
I actually can't believe what I mean.
Plus, we've got an idiot file, which I do on purpose.
Oh, yes.
And me, me, me, my joke.
You outsourced your joke to the listeners this week.
Dick.
Actually, good point.
Good point.
Well, do you do anything?
And I mean anything on this show.
Well, apart from carrying you this year and the 16 before it,
let me remind you of a brand new feature I brought to this show this week.
L.A. today, the 98th Academy Awards took place.
Hosted by Conan O'Brien.
Did he go well?
I think he always does a very good job, Conan.
I called Carrot Top, but the big winner won battle after another.
Leonardo DiCaprio's big blockbuster six awards,
Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor,
Sean Penn, Lockjaw, Best Adapted Screenplay.
Anyway, all of the above Michael J. B. Jordan won Best Actor
and all of that stuff.
But anyway, I'm not talking about what happened in the actual Oscars.
No.
What I couldn't help but notice that was they kept cutting the winner's speech off
with the playoff music.
Now, the Oscars have been critical of this before.
Yes.
When a winner tries to thank everyone and halfway through the speech
they start playing the music.
Well, today, they really got their eye in.
Let's hear a couple of examples.
Thank you to the Academy for supporting a film that is weird and that is queer
and that is made by a majority of women.
Women.
Women.
And, and Mike.
That's it.
That's it.
The award is about not about success, it's about resilience.
And I'm just so grateful to our team.
And is there anything else?
I'd like you.
Oh!
Bang!
You like this game. I like it.
So fat. I like it.
Some people watching have said they thought it was rude.
Well, of course they did.
I would have been offended.
I don't say rude.
I say genius.
Yeah, I'm with you.
And I'm planning on using it in our show.
And I'm going to give you some examples of how I think this could work.
Let's have a listen to the first of them.
Then Brazil.
And then as Bergerjohn.
I was going to do not speak.
What?
Go again.
As her Bergerjohn.
Let's do it now, Jim.
What is it?
What is it, Jim?
As her Bergerjohn.
You're going to come in earlier.
Where can you use this?
Another example.
I think you've got it on the long ways.
On the what?
On the long ways.
Zoom.
Paramatic.
Now.
Oh, Phil.
Do you have another go at that, please?
Param.
Paramatic.
Again.
Again, you could have come in earlier.
It's made for our show.
Like this is the perfect device for the last one.
Oh, no.
What's the wrinkly...
Oh, my God.
What's the wrinklest?
Oh, no.
Have a third go at it.
What's the wrinklest?
Yes, there it is.
I don't mind it.
It's genius.
What's the wrinklest thing on your grandmother?
Oh, your grandmother.
I don't mind that, Jim.
I like that.
We're going to have it ready.
Right, oh.
When you choose just not to stop your own rules,
then we'll hit the music.
Do you like the thought of that?
I like that.
We'll do it for Knife Brown and some of these questions.
Don't throw Knife under the bus.
Who else?
This is your divorce.
Bernie Vince.
Oh, Bernard.
Bernie's questions.
We could do.
Who else?
I don't know.
Yeah.
Don't try and make it about anyone else, fat.
Oh, Jay-Z.
That's all I could, Jim.
There's room for it.
Now we have got it ready for you.
You're right.
Good.
Good.
There it is.
That's getting your weight from the top, right?
I've lost my feet.
I've lost my feet.
It's been three years.
It's been three years.
It's been three years.
It's been three years.
It's been three years.
It's been three years.
It is.
It's been three years.
It's been three years.
It is.
Say nothing.
Get his tickets.
We can tomorrow.
We've got more tickets to boys.

I don't like the thought of what's coming up.
What, Jim?
What?
What are you doing?
Well, we've got the phone.
Time to connect with the magnificent rush hour family.
We love them.
And it's a nice time that we can touch with them.
And it's a nice time that we can touch with them.
Exactly, Jim.
No, that's it.
Well done.
Anyway.
The end of this speech.
That's the goal.
Maxi Gorn was just on.
Yes, he had a tour list.
Maxi.
He'd be 200 plus.
That's how he's been.
That's how he's been.
So he's been visiting.
Yeah.
What's going on?
Raleigh.
Phil Thorpe is on later.
Yeah.
He'd been up to 200.
He went from once we saw him play.
And he was a skinny little kid, Fred laden.
He went in a gym for six months in a cave.
And he'd come out looking like buddy Tarzan.
So he's big also.
So I was thinking about this, Jim.
I was thinking about this.
One, triple three, five, three.
What?
What were you thinking about?
A short little phone topic.
Are you big unusual?
No, Bill.
Yes, Jim.
You cannot go with that.
That's not a phone topic.
Are you big unusual?
Bill, no one will ring.
I'll tell you.
The Christmas tree.
Have a look at that.
Oh, it's lit up, Jim.
Because saying rabbits, he's saying there's not a call.
Because some people have big fingers.
I'm sure it would get in there.
Bill.
Gaden Hunt.
Are you big unusual?
Yes, right.
Are you going to the audience?
The family members with that.
And not the obvious.
So if you're ring up, I want to talk about you around.
No, thank you, Bill.
Okay.
It can be that you're big in real estate.
Yes.
It can be that you know, it doesn't have to be just a physical big.
Is that so?
Well, everything.
Are you big unusual?
Let's go to Paul.
Hello, Paulie.
Are you big unusual?
That's a big fat.
How are you?
I got me.
He's got the biggest, big toes you've ever seen.
How big are his big toes?
Well, his big toe was bigger than mine when he was 10.
And I'm six or two.
Oh.
Is they're quite large indeed.
Are they fat or are they just long?
No, they're just very long.
Right.
They're very long.
I've seen it a long time.
I've seen blokes before that their second toe is way longer than their big toe.
That's weird.
I don't know.
Yeah.
But are that his toes was the same size as mine when he was 10.
And I'm like 42.
Jeez.
I don't know.
Oh, that's all right, Gaden.
Paulie's first name.
Paul.
Oh, big toe set.
Right.
Hello, sir.
Stay there, Paul.
Yeah.
Simone's on the line.
Hello, Sim.
Hi, hey, hey, go.
You were going to say hi, Simone.
I was in the kitchen doing something.
I wasn't thinking.
So are you big unusual?
I am big unusual.
I had to have surgery on my toes when I was young.
And now I've got a massively long second toe.
And I can actually flip you the bird with my foot because that toe doesn't bend.
You were just talking about that with Paulie.
You said that, Jim.
I'm just talking about that with Paulie.
That's amazing, Simone.
How long is your second toe?
I've got a ruler here.
Well, it's pretty long and I trip over it.
I make you a trip.
I trip over that second toe.
And then if people laugh at me, I'll flip them off with my foot.
Flip them off with the toe.
That's brilliant.
So there's Simone.
I love that Chris is there.
Fat?
Hello, Christopher.
Maybe that's how we go.
Yeah, good.
Where are you?
Chris, as a matter of interest.
I'm in summary.
All right.
Not in the dunning.
Now you're big unusual.
My old boss had a big bonk.
Like no.
It was nice.
How big would it have been?
Like, like Roxanne in that movie?
Bill Lorry.
I can't remember.
Oh, yeah.
Probably Bill Lorry, yes.
When did you have a nickname?
Oh, no.
No.
Oh, just food.
There's nothing else with him.
Well, we used to have, of course, a boss.
Yeah.
Luke Tunnel, Cliff.
And that's an extraordinarily large nose.
Like, unfeasibly large.
Liam Pickering.
Yeah.
Three calls.
Three calls in, Jay.
How do you reckon this is going?
That's good.
No, Simone was good.
No, Simone was great.
All right.
So let's get on to Logan.
Logan Logan.
Logan.
Hello, JB.
How are we boys?
Good.
Bill and Robbie.
Good for us, Logan.
What's big unusual?
I'm seven foot tall.
Seven foot.
Wow.
Yes, indeed.
Yes.
Jesus.
How tall's my, my dad?
They're very short.
They're like five, five tenish.
So what is that in centimeters, Logan?
Two hundred and thirteen centimeters.
Two hundred and thirteen.
What do you do?
What do you do?
What do you do?
I'm a cabinet maker.
I do play basketball on the side.
Right.
Are you good?
I'm the best.
All right.
So what's Sam Darcy?
He's like two ten, isn't he?
Yeah.
And he's a massive bucket too.
That's unbelievable.
That's big.
That's every foot.
What are you doing?
What are you doing, Logan?
What are you way?
What do I way?
Well, that's it.
I see.
Nine kilos.
Oh, that's cool.
So you're skinny.
Yeah.
I'll sign the line.
That's it.
Now that's a big unusual.
I don't see you go.
No, I don't.
Andrew.
Oh, Joey.
You go.
You go.
You go.
You go.
You go.
You go.
You go.
You go.
I have massive calves.
How big are your calves?
Big around the minute.
They're 22 inches around.
22 inches.
How many is that in centimeters?
I've got the ruler here.
That's about 55.8, that's a little better.
That's how big that, twice the ruler.
And they're muscular, like I go to gym, like a fleetsman, piss up all the bodybuilders.
Apparently for bodybuilders, calves are the hardest muscle to grow big and mine is just naturally ridiculous.
They are. That's amazing.
That's like Rodney Marsh, the late great.
Carrier.
Big buddy Carrier.
Carrier.
Locky meal.
Locky meal.
58, that's double the ruler.
Wow.
Who's got the last one, say their Andrew?
Benny Boy.
Hello gentlemen.
Hello Benny Boy.
Are you big unusual?
I've got a fairly impressive cranium.
How big's your head?
60 centimetres diameter.
60.
So my brother, up until about three years ago, called me cabbage.
Cabbage.
Can you get a hat to fit your head?
A specialty made of Cuba, but that's about it.
It's part of someone they had a head off.
Did they have a measure off on the head?
It was a gazing.
Gazing.
That's right.
I used to play with Dennis Hickey here, the biggest head off ever seen.
Huge melon we used to call him.
We used to take a tape measure.
One of those ones that seems just as used.
Yes.
Around.
And we go to all the other state teams and we go get your biggest head out.
And we'll put you up against Reggie and no one got anywhere near him.
Can you remember how big a lot?
Huge.
Well, I don't know whether it was 60 centimetres.
That's a big head.
Big head.
Big head.
That's a big head.
Right.
Well fat, it's not your best.
No, but it's okay.
But you did get some costumes.
Yeah.
Boss screened in here and went off there.
Oh, I loved it.
Well, now look at him going good.
That's good Bill.
Well, no.

North Melbourne kicked off their season with a 46-point win over 4 out of a late yesterday,
which means this man has a 100% win record in the AFL.
It's their recruit, Tom Blomias.
Frankston have not been in front all night.
Oh, there you go.
They are now.
What a kick from Tom Blomias.
Huge roar for Tom Blomias as he got his first touch.
Being good on debut.
Good off-loading.
Chief forward, back to North Melbourne.
The two debuts on slinking up.
It's really party time here for North.
North Melbourne start 2026.
One win.
Zero losses.
Tommy Blomias is in studio.
Welcome to you, mate.
Thanks, boys.
Thanks for having me.
I was thinking, as you were coming in,
that you would be you and Lucky Doverston,
I'm pretty sure would be the only people on North Melbourne's list
to have day boot in a winning game.
That's a, yeah, I actually wonder if that's true or not.
I hope not.
But no, it was a great win, you're saying it was so much fun.
It was just to be part of it.
So what do you put it down to?
We all hear about the preseason being better
and the game plans starting to come together.
But for North Melbourne fans, they, to be fair,
have heard that a fair bit in the last four or four years.
But it did look different yesterday.
Why?
I think the boys are just ready to really take that next step.
I think you probably, like you said,
they've heard it for a long time.
But I genuinely believe that the four weeks that I've been there anyway,
I can just tell that they really want to win.
They're not just happy to be a part of the competition
or happy to kind of be in that middle part.
I think it really is this year of the year
that we're happy to take that next step
and yeah, I'm really just excited to be a part of it, hopefully.
But yes, they was one step in the right direction,
but there's still another 22 games to go.
So not going to get to ahead of ourselves at the same time.
Well said, Tommy Boy, 23 touches.
Good first game.
North Melbourne fourth on the ladder, Jim.
Yes, please.
How long has that been?
Well, when I was there, I think he was a shot down.
Eight and second or third.
Now, Blomoyer's first of all.
What is that?
You look a bit Scandinavian.
I don't think I am Bill.
I think it's more of a French type of operation.
But I can be called Scandinavian.
Do you want to call it?
I know.
Good looking rooster.
One of the many great stories now in footy.
Tommy, you were trying on player basically
out of the VFL playing for Frankston.
And then you were working at Collingwood.
We've all heard about that.
And then call up, come and jump in
and see if you can earn yourself a spot.
And a minute later, you're playing IFL 40.
Yeah, it's pretty crazy.
It's been a whirlwind last four weeks, to be honest.
It's all happened very, very quickly.
It's four weeks ago.
I was just sitting at my desk at Collingwood.
And then, yes, that was actually funny.
I think I was getting a massage about halfway through
the third quarter and Jack darling comes over to me.
He goes, oh, not a bad day.
The office, hey, man.
It's definitely changed last few weeks.
So it's been quite a little bit unbelievable.
What did you do at Collingwood?
I did sail.
So it was in their sales team.
Really?
Yeah.
So yeah, trying to sell sponsorships and all that.
Yeah, pretty much like president's club
and all that type of stuff, which is pretty cool.
Yeah.
Who is that?
I know it's been a big change.
And then had to resign there, obviously.
Had to resign.
It was a hard one, but yeah.
Definitely happy where I am now, that's for sure.
Right.
Because if you keep going the way you are,
a big cement head net will walk into the 40 department.
And so we had a bloke sitting in our office at a desk.
And we let him go and play for someone else.
So tell us your first impressions, Tommy.
When you're out there in an actual AFL game
and the ball's wearing around, which it does for debutants,
what was going through your head?
Were you thinking Jesus?
Oh, I'm actually out of here.
This is happening.
It was pretty crazy.
I was kind of just trying to soak it in the whole time, too.
And it's like, like I said, where I've come from,
where I am now, it's kind of just,
I'm just trying to enjoy it as much as I can.
I'm not getting to ahead of myself.
Because I don't know how long this will last.
But hopefully a long time.
But yeah, I'm more just wanting to enjoy every little moment.
Because yeah, just seeing all my mates there,
yesterday as well, friends, family, it was unbelievable.
It was something that it was a day that I'll never forget.
But yeah, like I said, I'm just trying to soak it up as much as possible.
Because it was like, yeah, just crazy the atmosphere.
Then you got Zach butters running around.
Did you got these blokes that are the elite of the game?
Five metres away from you.
I know.
It was crazy.
Paul and Francis, you give him a boo?
No, I didn't.
I was the right guy.
Oh, no.
It's a boo.
Tommy had boo and all that.
Tommy got boo!
Boo!
You're a traitor!
Oh, the fans got into him.
Did you hear that out there?
Definitely.
Is it me or is the ball just pinging around?
Because it's only round one, I suppose.
It just seems to be quicker the game.
It was quick.
Obviously, step up from VFL as well.
Yeah, I don't know if it was because we wanted to do the roof or what it was.
But maybe that new rule, that less overall, whatever you want to call it,
whereas last touch it, I definitely reckon it's sped up the game a little bit.
And certainly the Melbourne St. Cuda game.
Then we're just going from one end to the other.
So it just seems to be a lot quicker the game.
100% is a good thing.
Hopefully it's better to watch.
Tell us about a little lucky Dovastin.
How did he go?
The first game in the nice little, as I said, Eastern Rangers Bogon.
He was a good ease every part.
He loves it.
He brings energy to the team.
That's for sure.
And I'm sure everyone saw it out there yesterday.
How good he can kind of just little moments of the house.
He really changes the game.
Teo, I like big Cooper.
Trimbuff.
How big is he?
And he's going to be something.
He's a big boy.
He's got a lot of talent as well.
He's someone to look out for.
I think I saw somewhere where he's kicked three goals in every game.
He's played.
I think he's only played four games, I think.
But he's kicked three in every game.
So he's done well.
But he also does a little stuff while he even creates contests.
And you should say how hard he works with the club.
He's definitely one of the hard workers.
He's putting in the effort.
So I'm not surprised he's playing my leader at the same time.
And decent crowd fat.
I was only able to watch from quarter time onwards.
And one of the first things I thought was who I support.
Adelaide's.
How's the crowd going to go round one?
And then flick the tele on.
And it was bloody.
Third deck was nice and not full.
But lots of representation there.
Tommy, so that's a nice crowd round one.
100%.
I couldn't believe how loud it was.
I mean, I don't know how many people there were.
But it definitely sounded like there was the roof
because we had to fall off at one stage when we kicked a few goals in a row.
Well, that's a great thing with this win, Jimmy Boy.
As you know, Real One hasn't been great over the years.
Great for Clark.
Great for the players and great for Lax.
But great for the fans.
Oh, 100%.
We've done it tough.
100%.
That's why, like I said, it's only one game at a 23.
So we're not getting too carried away.
But hopefully we can just bring more performances like that.
Because yesterday was really a good example of what we can do.
And now we're just going to keep doing it really.
My kids already requesting final tickets.
And like just, let's just get your dingbat hats off and get your self-thinking.
Bring us an answer to him, Jimmy.
You've got to get ahead of yourself.
Oh, mate.
Please, they got no clue.
Any of them.
Now, I said about three weeks ago, Tommy, I totally get why he wasn't picked.
But I would love to have seen Luke Davies Uniac play in that state of origin game.
Because him playing at that level with teammates, that good.
I think the world would have seen what a superstar this bloke is.
Because he's played for one of the worst teams in the combat.
It's been hard for people to see what a genius he is.
But from about the 15-minute mark of a third, a second quarter,
right the way through to the end of the third.
My goodness, he went to work and turned the game on its head.
He's a superstar.
You can just see how quickly he breaks the game open.
Like he said, just a 10-15 minute period.
And he completely opens up the game.
It's crazy.
Him and Harry Shezel as well.
They're the two that, I mean, I think they should have been playing state of origin.
But you can see why they're not.
I mean, you know, the 16th, 17th ranked team.
There's lots of other players that are putting their hand up ahead of them.
But it's just the exposing blokes like that, Bill.
Like you used to happen in your day.
You'd get the Bryan Royals and blokes from teams that weren't as sort of glamorous.
Yeah, that's it.
And they'd come in to state of origin 40 and everyone would go,
Jesus, he can bloody play.
It would have happened with those two blokes.
All right, tell us about the big skipper.
How's he going in the new job?
Silver.
Yeah, Silver's an absolute.
He's one that's really just made me feel so comfortable with the club.
He's been unreal, to be honest.
He's just one of the all-time great blokes.
I've only been known him for four weeks.
But I already feel like he's a little bit of a, I wouldn't say a father figure.
But he's definitely older than me.
So he really looks after me.
That's for sure.
So he's been unbelievable, to be honest.
He's been great.
A good leader there.
Dylan Stevens, probably best game he's ever played.
I reckon yesterday.
He was unbelievable.
He's worked great up and down the ground.
Crazy.
And he's skills, foot skills as well.
You're probably sorry.
Yes, they just unbelievable.
Did you work to coach out?
Yes.
Yeah, Clarke is a very nice man.
He's a nice man.
Nice man.
He is.
Yeah, he's good.
He's been very good to me so far.
Obviously, like I said, I've only been there for about four weeks for now.
He's been unbelievable.
He's a nice man.
Jimmy, can tell this boy is a good boy.
You can tell.
Very nice.
Well brought up.
Exactly.
And he received so much love yesterday on his day boo.
That you had to turn your phone off.
Is that right?
I did have to turn my phone off.
It was, I didn't want to get too overwhelmed.
I think I was vegan to my mum and sister last night, actually.
And I think they were kind of organizing on the tickets.
I think they ended up being about 150 odd.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
150 mate.
150 three, I think, to be exact.
That's how many tickets.
That's why I was so full.
Yeah.
Every time I got a touch, I definitely heard them.
It was friends, family.
Yeah.
It was the amount of love that I got shown is something that, yeah.
That's why I just was so grateful to be out there.
Who?
The Blamayers family supported who before you came to North.
We were mad cats, actually.
So I'm sure my dad would have loved Bill back in the day.
That's for sure.
Probably not.
Yes.
We wouldn't have loved him, actually.
I put him in a way that he was.
Well, was talking about it.
Bill actually told me off air to say that.
Yeah.
That was the best of those.
No, he hasn't.
Ain't that not.
How tall are you?
180.
I'll say 183 six.
But maybe just that.
Wikipedia says you're six four.
That's not how I'll climb it.
No, no, it's bullshit.
I don't know.
No, you don't.
Take it away.
We got a little friend.
A little friend.
Yeah.
Holding hands with someone.
No, no, no girls at the moment.
Oh.
No girls.
Very, very single.
Tell me.
Well, I was long.
A few DMs would have slid in last night.
No, not at all Bill.
Oh, look at him anyway.
Oh, look at him.
Oh, look at him.
And were you living at home?
Yeah, in Baysideway.
Oh, good.
With Mum and Dad.
Yeah, both.
Yeah, both.
Mum and Dad, they're separate.
Yeah, with them just kind of 55.
Oh, good on you, Mum.
Now, what are you doing outside of footy?
Because you were working at sales at Collingwood.
We found that out in the last break.
But what about now?
Are you studying anything?
What's your plan?
I was studying.
I'm taking a little bit of a break at the moment.
Just to kind of farm a feat at my new job, obviously.
But that's one thing that I kind of need to figure out.
It's finding a new hobby.
So if your boy's got any kind of golf.
Yeah, golf could be one.
It's something that I've never been that good at.
But all the boys love golf.
But yeah, now I've got a bit more free time on my hands.
I guess during the wake.
I can, yeah, I need to find a hobby.
A beer or a spiritual.
Something like that.
That's not a hobby.
That's the sport.
Exactly.
Well, that's a lot of fun.
A hobby.
A dreamer boy, Tommy.
Yeah.
All my kids, well, certainly the younger two went to Halebree.
And I wasn't aware because I didn't go to school in Melbourne.
Quite how much those two schools hate each other.
Until footy came round and then my goodness.
They don't like each other at all.
No, there's a massive rivalry there.
I think it's going to build over the last 10 years.
But yeah, they've never really liked each other.
I'm not sure why, but yeah, there is a rivalry there.
Who, when you played for Brighton against Halebree,
who did Halebree have?
Who were there sort of stars?
Cody, wait a minute, I'm American.
He kicked about six or seven goals, I think.
Against us.
That's what I didn't pop out there.
No, I built.
Every time he plays football, his penis doesn't come out of his shirt.
Well, it popped out once.
Once.
We also.
Do you see that top?
No, I miss that one.
Oh.
I think what it's face Asian fans and Lola,
it's all you ever talk about.
I think it popped out too.
Now, you're one of the very few I reckon, Tom,
that's gone to Brighton Grammar and played at Frankston.
Yes.
It's two interesting cities, suburbs there, mate.
100%.
No, it was.
It's a very different environment in both those suburbs.
I guess, but.
How was Frankston?
No, I love Frankston.
It was definitely.
I'm so happy and grateful that I got to be part of that club
because there were the ones that really kind of let me be me.
And I guess, let me be in the position that I am now.
I wouldn't be here if I wasn't if it wasn't for Frankston
40 Club.
So, yeah, I can't thank them enough.
That's for sure.
Good ground down there.
Great, great, great crowd.
Yes.
A lot of night games as well.
Yes.
Every home game is a night game this year.
So, yeah, they're unbelievable.
I think they're first home games this Friday night as well,
which is.
Who's a coach?
Jackson Cornberg.
He's been unbelievable.
Well done.
There go.
So, I'm Bradshaw, Tommy.
And I've been called Braggshaw, Bradshaw, Dickhead.
Dickhead a lot.
But everyone gets my name wrong.
And I always say it's not that bloody hard.
How many people get blomised wrong?
And what do they mainly call you?
I don't think I've hardly ever been called it right, to be honest.
I kind of just don't at the point now where I just let them say it.
How they want to say it.
How do they normally get?
It's all the blumiras, blumirs, blumiras.
They just, I don't know.
They say anything to be honest.
But blumires.
I don't know why.
But it's not that hard.
It's not that hard.
It's not hard, fat.
No.
It's not that hard.
Why were you practicing the whole time before?
Don't you got any?
Well, you said it was some other name.
I said it's Brian Myers, but blumiras.
This is a nice little story.
If this is true, Adam Trilor, he played on him last year.
Did he send you a message with Doc Points on what he thought was good about you?
Correct.
He did.
That was nice.
That was very nice.
When I got the list, but a few weeks ago, which was very nice to him as well, which is pretty
crazy because, yeah, I've only ever met him once on the field when I played against him.
So it's not like I have any past history with him or anything.
He just, really, I don't know what he saw on me, but that really built my confidence.
I reckon that's something that I've stuck with me today just to kind of know that if an AFL player
like him has confidence in the ability to want to give me feedback, it really just boosts my confidence.
Well, that's not surprising, fat.
Not the Adam Trilor we know.
He's coming to the studio.
Yeah, exactly.
He is a very good guy.
That is good.
I reckon that's brilliant.
Well, Tommy, you are off to a flyer, mate.
We couldn't be happier to have you at Arden Street go well in the coming weeks.
Thank you, JB.
Thanks guys for having me.
I'm in the blue mind.
This is the show where sport meets stupid triple-end rush hour with JB and Billy.
Well, we've got a new segment.
A new segment?
Or a segment for today.
I don't know if it's going to be a segment, but I look forward to it.
We'll look at the herald sun.
Oh, mate.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, great.
I reckon he's got indoor.
Page 52 of the herald sun.
They've got footies, power 50.
So it's the ranking alone.
So long way back in the book.
Yes, most powerful people in AFL footies.
Craig Drummond.
Oh, I have to be in there.
No, you're not in.
Craig Drummond, number one, of course.
If you get anyone from Triple-M's in there.
Chris Scott.
Oh, really?
Chris Scott is at number four.
Craig Hutchison.
Hutchison at eight.
How's Hutchie in there?
Well, he's a pretty good player.
That's why I'm learning his station.
No one listens to.
Right.
The broadcast of 40.
What else has he got to do with the game?
Well, he's channel seven links.
Peter Verlandis is in at 12.
What, he runs rugby league.
No, he runs.
I don't know that to me, mate.
He also doesn't listen to this fact.
So, mint head.
Craig Kelly at 22.
Well, I'll see.
I'll call him.
Yeah.
Oh, Jake Clark.
There we go.
We got one.
So, they managed to find a spot for J.C.
Stuart Fox.
My mate.
Need some tickets coming up.
The 33.
And Eddie McGuire at 35, if you don't mind.
But so, I thought on the back of that, Jim.
What have you done?
That's five.
I've got the five most powerful, influential people
in the game of AFL.
So, do we start?
I have come up with my own list.
And at number five, Chris Lucas.
What?
What?
Chris Lucas.
Yeah.
What?
Who wants to run some of Australia's biggest eateries
and bars, including club chin chin, located at GMHBA stadium.
So, Chris Lucas.
He's got a restaurant that's got a pop up at your ground.
You're saying he's won the top five most influential people
in the game of football.
You're getting this.
You're getting it.
Good on you, Jim.
Well done.
How about number four, Benz?
Bailey Smith.
No.
One of the AFL's best and most marketable players.
Beautiful skin.
What was it?
Marketable.
And beautiful skin and beautiful eyes and a star.
So, we love balls.
Yeah, we do love balls.
And...
Yep.
Number three, Coco.
Number three.
Andrew Dylan.
He's the CEO.
And he has to be in there.
Why have you put him in there?
Well, he has to be in there.
But he's already in there.
He's in that one in there old son.
No, he's in mine too.
So, don't worry about that.
So, he just waits for you.
Give yourself a tour.
Already ready.
Number two.
Steve Brax.
He's been fantastic.
Dennis Napthine and Ted Bayou, Jim.
Premiers of Victoria.
Wow.
Who donated funding to help out a struggling country,
provincial AFL club to build a new grandstand and scoreboard.
Thank you to the Victorian Premiers
who also barrack for the cats.
No way.
So, I'm just because they put money into your dump of a joint.
Yeah.
They're putting them in as the most influential people in the game.
Second eight.
The second most.
And we get to number one.
What do you got at number one, Bill?
Barry Steiner, more Billy Brown.
So, I just couldn't split him.
I could not split him.
Oh, no.
They head up the most...
What?
The most powerful codery group in the AFL.
The Pivots.
So, well done, the Bears.
No, no.
No, no.
Oh, powerful.
More powerful.
So, well done there.
To the Premiers, to Andrew Dillon.
To Barley Smith, Chris Lucas, and Fat and Bass.
You're putting yourself in as the most powerful
and influential person in the game.
Yes, I am.
That's being fantastic.
Thank you, Brax.
Thank you, Brax.
Oh, any eels?
Oh.
Come on, Fat.
No more from you.
No, I'm going to have a spell, now.
Finish up.
James Brayshaw, Billy Brownless.
This is Triple M's Rush Hour.
Yeah.
I would like to claim credit for this.
Oh.
And I'm still got it.
No, I'm not.
Maddie has been busy in the booth.
Oh.
And he's put words to songs, and it's one of his strengths.
He doesn't make notes.
He does it really well.
Very well.
I've narrowed it down to the top three,
because they were plenty to choose from.
And this one's involving a West Coast premiership player,
and a song by Flow Rider.
He hit it, Ravitz.
Elliot, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
Oh, that was number one.
That was a great of a love that one.
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
So then we get to number two, and these next two
involve a Collingwood premiership player.
The first one is one of my favorite tracks
from a band called Rudiment.
Yeah, not giving in is the song.
Let's have a listen.
Not giving in.
What about speaking of the horse, Jackie Gibbon?
Oh.
Oh.
Young Gibbon?
And then there's the lead singer.
Rudimental.
I was with the lead singer in Singapore on the piece.
I couldn't think of the band, that's him.
Yes, I was.
How come you're bringing that up now?
That was last year.
I know, it was last year.
I forgot to tell us.
The band, and now you said it, and it just spiked something
in here.
What's his name?
Oh, um, Nacka's someone.
Well, find out his name.
He's a good boy.
Nacka's someone.
Where are they from, Rudimental?
UK.
You're on it, and you were on the piece with him.
Yeah, yeah.
Good name.
Yeah.
Well, while we're trying to find out what his name is.
Yes.
To quote the legend who dominated this radio station
for a long time, Tony Martin.
This one, here's something for the kiddies.
Hit it in place.
Jackie Giverlin.
Oh.
Giverlin.
So, nicely done, Matty.
Well done, Matty.
He's good.
Well done, Matty.
He's good.
Just putting some nice work together.
Nobody's name is yet, Rob.
No, I'm just saying if Rudimental actually did play
at the Singapore Grand Prix.
No, no, they didn't play.
He was just there.
No, no, no, no, no.
He was a bloke.
And we were, hang on, I'm just thinking.
That's it.
That's it.
That's it.
Fats now taking time.
No, you can just go to it.
Yeah.
No, because I'm not sure.
Oh, he's still rude and nip-mah, whatever it is.

Tell Matty to stop cutting the idiot file short.
I want to hear the whole thing.
Oh, Jim.

The only reason Matty does this is he's got to fit it into the show.
Oh, nah.
It was 10, 14, 20.
No, it's three or four minutes.
So here we go.

Be part of the rush hour family follow the show on Facebook Instagram tiktok and ex at triple ed rush hour
We knew our next guest was comedy royalty long before he stepped in to host this show. How good you even
I knew it on fire. We're bringing a pro in
I don't know why this is just what I do
Now you can see him at this year's Melbourne International Comedy Festival
I am fresh from the South American jungle sam foda he wanted big bloke in our legend
I had to watch him shower naked
Raise 140 kilos like watching a hippopotamus shower
I can say that because when I took my shit off for the first time he said it looked like a pregnant greyhound
He's welcome
Came in when you bugged off around the world. I did the rating spike. No
You look welcome to you some would say I lifted you where you are now
You know, I just and you're still there. You do have to going and I appreciate that. You know you haven't let me down
Well, you did you forget you're coming in here today and you're playing tennis? Yeah, I got a text
You know what but this is someone who was professional and committed. I won six nil. Oh, I had to win six nil to get here right now
So this to me to be here spot on time. I couldn't drop a gun
The court of choice no, I've played in this other guy's home court. So he's house. He's uh
He's one of those guys. He was a tech whiz who sold who sold his company for hundreds of millions
And now just looks to play tennis
Beta money's on cause a lovely guy Sean. So he did he does this thing tech thing that to do with sport
You know the thing in the jumpers that you know you run around and they get all the darn
P. S. He invented that. Yeah, it's something to do with that, but it's made him a stack of money
He's obviously no good at it. He's all right
He's all right, but he's just he come up against the best. Oh a better man
Now you we need to get you and your thoughts on the blues because last year
You dropped that game to Richmond ran one
You famously said that you walked from the MCG home to your house in St. Kilda hoping to be stabbed along the way
Yes, it's true
And I was there last Thursday night and um, yeah, it was looking like a very very similar story
As in the blues came out of the blocks and we're just on fire and then half time came and team went
They just don't play the second half. I have been told because we have lots of mutual friends
That you might have
Lied a bit on Richmond now in that game at half time last Thursday night
Look, I I'm sad to say it is true
Got to understand sitting with my carton mates and one of them who you probably know James young and is a big carton man
Good good melvin bloke
He said to me Richmond are paying 17 to one at half time and anyone who knows the recent history of carton knows that that is way
Way too long
So I put a hundred months
Yeah, well back in step play one
I mean
No, they're not in 80 boy. Yes, they did they win. They lost again. Yeah, but they won the money
$1,700 in the last minute who we actually very important. I was
Carleton definitely carton, but with a sense of just relaxation about it
And I feel like Tommy Lynch might have also bet on car
I don't know what happened there
I've got an idea and I thought about this driving in I think all players should be required to bet on the games
They're playing in but they have to bet on their own team
So Richmond have to load up on Richmond and so when Tommy Lynch misses that goal it costs him
Personally, and so Carlton every week maybe they're match payments
The match payments of bet
So I'm in the AFL have very good at linking in with sporting betting agency
So we are
I think that's then all the supporters would be happy to know that the team are playing not only to win the game
But to get paid that day and not just get paid get paid double get the opposition money
Are you on the Jagger Smith train?
Legend love Jagger. He the way he used the ball is as we've needed it for a long time
Yeah, so we just need to look after him and we all need to follow Jagger
Let's just follow Jagger. What does Jagger do? Let's do what he does
Whatever he does
It does what about the very powerful WhatsApp group you're in there's some heavy hitters in this
WhatsApp group
Anyway, he left the group because he couldn't handle the heat of the kitchen
He left in the Brandon Bolton days to be on so long time ago
Yeah, imagine that being around he was all in with bolts and that didn't equate with the group
The group we're looking at the win lost column
And it's not just bolts has been every coach over the last 30 years basically
So it's not I'm not blaming any individual and I and I stopped doing that at count
But yeah, the group is still very passionate and
Yeah, so we question a lot of journals in the group and some of them, you know, are too
Positive about count to be honest, so yeah, we as you if you know that any my
No, Andy left. He's out too. He's a lot of heat on handle the heat mates
He's but so the ones are in it. Yeah, so I won't say who they are, but well
There are there well-known names in the industry, but sometimes I go guys. I screenshot something today
And so what is that because that man? How does that help us saying our players are great when they're not so um
And then the guy told me that's an old story and I said, oh, that would be for the season
So you're allowed to talk count that before the season won't you see the start you gotta be honest?
face reality
But we're one all and who knows we beat Melbourne next week and we get on a roll
So it's not over for the blues, but we just we don't know. We just started
Maybe you see the third quarter against Sydney. That was 12 goals you wrote. Um, yeah, that hurt
So Yuri, I'll tell you this much
So this is what happens to me a lot and it's starting to annoy me
Yeah, but started with my wife as you know, she's a very passionate blue
This time last year when you lost her rich from she said I've had enough
I'm following North Melbourne from now on. She said that's how bad on going
So then Marcus Fraser a very famous golfer. Yeah, mad eastern and fan halfway through the game last week
We are so bad. He goes on following north. That's how bad we are
Well, I'm sick of being referenced
As the place people go when they're joined as that bad
Well, I agree that I mean we used to be able to say at least we're not north Melbourne
But now after your great win on the weekend where it looked like there was some green shoots happens
And can I I don't want to talk myself up, but Luke McDonald from your club actually
Contact me a couple of weeks ago and say can you do a spray for the team and I will play it at the season launch
And so I did that I went I was in the middle of them
I was in the middle of the time and I only gave me all this information about the players and I
I put my my life like I balloon-tacked my iPhone to a palm tree next to
Adelaide oval and did this right and I had like 20 sheets of paper up all over the palm tree
I look like a crazy person and it took me about half an hour
So and I did it and I sent it and they played it and they won make so well you used to do it in for us on the 40
Magnificent clubs loved them. Yeah, well north started it actually back in the first one I ever did was for North Melbourne
Who I've always been a very open club in that way, so they got that ball rolling so maybe they've got it rolling
Here in comedy festival is coming up cooked starts March 26 to April 19 at the Melbourne International comedy festival
You can grab your tickets at comedyfestival.com.au and cooked is around the show. Oh no
Can't be no surely got some more new material. You can't go back to that injury from the
AJ Witten going. It's a very fresh injury. I'm still feeling it. It happened to be six months ago. Belly
You see six months? Well, I mean that was the but that's that was September. It was the end of the
Yeah, it was the end of all this
Yes, the end of the final
People still asking me every day about it
So it's like they want to hear about it and I'm here to tell the stories
I actually had an old lady recently in st. Kilda walk up to me. She had an accent and she was crying
And I said what's wrong? I'm thinking that her country's been bombed or something
She said no, I'm thinking about you and that game and what they did to you
No, and then she said I swear to god. She said I know you don't want to talk about it
And I'm thinking you don't know me at all
How do they comedy festival you live for two hours?
Well, look the fact is I picked a guy with five broken ribs in a punctured lap and it was 30 meters out
And I went straight through the middle wall so and I hadn't kicked a footy really for 20 years
So Huey here's my question round
Embers works for us. Yeah, I like he's a good guy
Works for us Andrew and he doesn't have a sharp enough part of his body to puncture anything in your body
Yes, he's just now round round
No, but what you're saying there is he's got some weight on and why still nothing sharp
Yeah, but he's hip the hip point is always sharp, mate
And it's whatever he did his hip went into my ribcage and if a man is six foot three maybe six two
110 kilos. What are you?
I'm five ten and at the time I was probably 70 kilos
I'd been done the jungle show and I'd basically got a leading disorder
But I was really thinking and I was also 54 I was five years old
Anyone else on that field? Yes, yes, and I thought they were meant to look after the non-professional football
So um, they didn't no and Crawford knows he got the team to target me
He said he's pretty much dressed he had one instruction for his whole team of legends
The gorens came off the line to pick you off
Yeah, well, but he was only following instructions and the instructions are from Crawford
Which was he actually said these words I don't care what happens out there whether we win or lose
Just make sure Dave Hughes never wants to play this game again
He said every single player has to tackle him and make it hurt and and a number of them dead
And it did hurt so all right, so the show's got a bit of that in it. What else a bit? Well now it's got a quite a bit of that
It's an epic journey
Redemption of a man liveny child would drink
Everyone wanted to play AFL I drained when 30,000 people are there roar when you're done for a mark
And the banners of your chest and almost hits the stadium roof
And then you hear them all laugh and and you know as a comedian here in 30,000 people laugh. He's my dream
I'll the football that night. I was like Billy
Yeah, I mean, so I can't have 50 goals up at half time
We even though you played this in game that day. So there's games you didn't play well, but that was not one of them
I don't think I'd get a cup of gold. I don't think you got any goals. Oh two very low
Now using yeah, I got something for you here, right?
You're barrack for South East Melbourne Phoenix. There are other finals knocked out last night
I'd say one will boy Nathan so be in the second game got 41 points and did it cracking you follow the McLaren's
They're not even got off the grid yet. They just have decided not to even try the
And calmer shit
You're cursed. I really just want to win. I it's also back for Arsenal. So they might
But let's go back to that bloody Grand Prix. I mean
What the Australian Grand Prix? Our man Oscar. Yeah, I mean if anyone listening here
If you drove to work today and got to work
You're a better driver than Oscar. No, no, he didn't get to the start
He couldn't even drive to the start
I don't know if I've ran that course all day every day because I live near the
In my and msax there where my kids play basketball and it's
During the week you've got to go 40k now
Maybe he should have followed that
Mate, I know you got to go great seeing it. Is it any way we could cling on to you?
Mate, I'm available. I'm not going to lie. Are you doing a film?
I'd head cavalies as is yes, he got the last yes, yeah, I've filmed today, man. What are you?
What are you doing? I'm playing myself
