Introduction & Banter
00:00:02
Speaker
It is... The Fantasy Europeans. My name is Jared Dyke. I wanted to say it's stupid and let's move on, but then you kept going. I'm Ben Glauser. I don't like any way anybody gambled that. Collusion! Collusion!
Fantasy Rugby Draft Overview
00:00:27
Speaker
Hey everybody, welcome back. It is the Fancy Rugby Yanks. My name is Jared Dyke. I'm Ben Glauser. We're into this. It's fancy corner time. It's time to talk about Champions Cup FRD and all that stuff. It's so much fun. A lot of fantasies. We're going to be doing some juggling around with things here in a little bit.
00:00:54
Speaker
So we get, we get two more rounds with all the teams involved with, with, and then we have two where it's just whoever's left. And it's not looking good for yours truly. No, get to me guys. I'm looking like they're going to go out. Well, I'm going too. Well, besides that.
00:01:20
Speaker
No, I just, my, my team looks fine. They're just not scoring points. Hmm. Yeah, that hurts. Um, the problem.
Champions Cup & Draft Recap
00:01:28
Speaker
Yeah. Let's, let's have a re refresh on, um, what happened in, what's happened in champions cup so far for F R D and champions league specifically. Um, we have skids and Hicks. I'm in the skids, Ben's in the Hicks. Yeah. Um, Hicks, uh,
00:01:50
Speaker
Week two, we had George just barely lost to Duncan by two points. I was able to get over the hump and beat Justin and then Luke had his way with Cobis. So that's how that shook out there. I think the top, yeah, the top of...
00:02:13
Speaker
Skids right now is myself and Luke. Justin and Duncan are both the one and ones and then George and Cobis are 0 and 2.
00:02:25
Speaker
And over in the Hicks Conference, we have Mark at, no, sorry, Dead Ants is Alex, right? Yes, that's Alex. At the 2-0.
Current Standings Analysis
00:02:37
Speaker
Stewart. The Beach Faraier, Stewart. Mark is no away fans. That's right. He is. He's one-on-one. Carrocks one-on-one. And the cover is Stu. That's right.
00:02:47
Speaker
Sophia. Oh, that's right. Yeah. Sorry. I'm sorry. Yep. Okay. I'm sure you're all right. Sophia is one on one and I'm holding up the S at an O and two totem pole. I am. My point score says it all. I'm I have 168 points in two matches. That's not. Yeah, it's not a good showing. It's awesome. No, it's not having the house has the high amongst
00:03:16
Speaker
everyone in both, both groups. Um, two 90 in terms of points for, got it. Fucking kick him off the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
Upcoming Matches & Key Players
00:03:41
Speaker
Alex won over Stu, won 52 to 89. And Mark, in the actual fight of the weekend, over Sofia, won 11, sorry, 11.3. So, almost 12 points, 13 points, whereas the rest of us were like 50 points, 60 points, not good.
00:04:02
Speaker
Yeah, let's see what's going on this week. Whoa, it's Cobus and I. This'll be fun. And then Justin has Duncan and Luke and George do battle as well.
00:04:15
Speaker
And I play Sophia. Do plays Carrick. And Mark plays Alex. Oh, God bless Mark. Have fun. Yeah. So hopefully, shit. Sophia has DuPont. That's, damn it. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. OK. All right. All right. We'll see how that goes. Let's see how this goes. All right. Let's go start set.
00:04:45
Speaker
I believe you go first. It's mostly start and if we don't say them, then just sit them. Right. Or we'll let you know when the lineups come out. Yeah, all that good stuff. Right. Are you starting us? I think you are.
00:05:02
Speaker
With uh, Claremont. Yeah. Okay. All right. Here we go. Yes. Yes. I'm sorry. I'm just trying to figure out what it was. Why there's two of us. Yeah. No kidding. Uh, let's see. All right. So let's start with the house, uh, for Claremont, uh, because fly house can be somewhat in demand. Police on is probably fine if that's your option. Um, do, do, do, do, try to think of, um,
00:05:31
Speaker
Yeah, Bessie, maybe for Claremont. I don't know if he's healthy. I'm also not 100% sure if all these players are healthy, so just don't mind. Loose forward. I know. I mean, they have some names that are worth it, but I don't think any of them are healthy, like Fritz Lee and Yato. But I don't know if any of them are healthy. Teteron was apparently like...
00:05:51
Speaker
something people were into, but I don't see it for him. So yeah, right now there's only a couple of those swords I'd really want if I was that, but I don't think they're going to be available. So that's good there. Um, midfield, once upon a time, George Moala was a good option. Just saying, so, um, I don't know if Simone is ready to roll over there and making sure obviously you want, we need to be eligible as well. So that's a possibility over there.
00:06:20
Speaker
Newsom and Pinnell for the outside backs for sure. Rocca as
Team Evaluations & Player Strengths
00:06:23
Speaker
well. I would like those are the, that's the contingent that I am excited about for Claremont if I have any of those. So, um, and yeah, and this, this is probably a makeup break cause this is Claremont's only two, right? Pretty sure. Oh, um, you know what? I don't know. I didn't put them down. No, they're one on one. That's right. Okay. Okay. So, so yeah, this, if they rock up and get this locked down and they won't have to worry about next week. Um, but any, any case.
00:06:52
Speaker
And then tigers. We know him. We love him. Um, not the front row. Uh, Charlie, if he starts, sure. Um, Ben port fleets, the half back to have at, at tigers right now, he's actually been tearing it up. Uh, and if RD here, uh, Jasper for a back row, but that's, that's probably, that's my favorite at least. Yeah.
00:07:16
Speaker
And even then you're kind of hoping the way he's been playing. He's not getting the easy meters that he was getting last year. Right. Midfield, Porter if he's healthy and that's it for them. And then Obie's, Freddie and he's the only one I really love. Watson if he's healthy. And then you hope he stays healthy. Yeah. So those are the ones for me.
00:07:45
Speaker
OK, off to sale hosting Toulouse. So, sailor one and one, Toulouse 2-0. Obviously, with one of those victories being over sale. Obviously, the sailor at home, which really fucks Toulouse over because it's just really hard to play at the AJ Bell.
00:08:07
Speaker
But at the same time, they're not really like, who do you, who do you play from them? And it's hard to pick out guys at this point who are really scoring in this kind of competition. You don't, you know, you can't really have an eight point player at pretty much any position, except maybe lock. And even then, I don't know what sale locks are going to get eight points. So, you know, really, it's hard to justify anyone this for sale other than the front row, because, you know, they might get a couple
Match Previews & Strategic Insights
00:08:33
Speaker
of them all over tries. Yeah. And maybe they've scored well in this comp. So, right.
00:08:37
Speaker
And Rob Dupria is scary enough has scored well in this comp and but he also kicks a lot and he will kick a lot. They'll get a lot of penalties that they'll kick for points as well so.
00:08:49
Speaker
Yeah, that's really the only two guys I'm certainly looking at. There's others, like, you know, carpenters played well, but at the same time, why are you really going to play carpenter when you have, like, all these other people available? Not really. Anyway, on the Toulouse side, their front row also is someone worth playing. Well, the position we're playing. Tebow Flamont. Funny story, he used to be a fly-out. Cool story about that.
00:09:15
Speaker
And then obviously DuPont and Intimac and Ramos. Again, though, you're expecting less output from them because sale bet defense is going to be, again, a tough nut to crack, as I said earlier. Right. Yeah. By the way, the dog toy is coming across. Can you hear that? Nope, but I'm sure it's Rocky. Yeah, it's Rocky. She's squeaking something. Okay, cool. She found a squeak toy to destroy.
00:09:45
Speaker
Oh yeah. Don't worry. Taz will help her destroy it. Does that, it was a profession I swear. Yeah. She needs a little help. She still has her puppy teeth. She's not going to tear anything apart yet. She would have, but not there yet. Not there yet. Uh, Gloucester and Leinster. So I'm not really sure what team, what type of team Gloucester is going to spin out there. They're at home, so it's probably going to be a strong one. Right.
00:10:11
Speaker
But who do they have that's healthy at this point? Yeah, it's the question. Lewis Reesamot. Yeah, he's out, I think. So, yeah. Yeah, I don't know if... Front row's probably good. Yeah, I don't know who's going to be playing 10. Yeah, that's the other question. We know Santicureaus is a midfielder here, and that's good and bad, because I'm not sure if I love that as a midfielder, but
00:10:35
Speaker
entirely depends on what kind of game he has. And that's not really something you want to go with at this point. So, um, you want to lean on somebody a little bit more dependable, but if you're stuck, there's worst options. Uh, another lose swords for Gloucester really excite me. Unless blood replays in which case, yeah, go roll him out there. Um, yeah. And then like thoroughly.
00:10:56
Speaker
after the way he played, you got to throw him a bone. For Leinster, Sexton's out, I believe. So Ross Burns the go for fly half, and I have no issue with that whatsoever. Their front row as well, their front row stacks. Even if they bring like a one and a half, not quite the full noise. Yep.
00:11:16
Speaker
either halfbacks, probably okay. McGrath or Gibson park, um, random FLIR to, uh, Kayla Doris is also in the, in that mix as well. Um, ring rose thumbs up. Um, and yeah, like James Lowe, Jimmy O'Brien, that contingent,
00:11:36
Speaker
Like, I don't know if they're all going to go off, but at the same time, those aren't people you sit. So right. Because eventually they're one of them is going to get mashed up against Johnny May. So there you go. Like, you know, some teams are bad at taking advantage of that. This team will not be because they have the horses. Right. You know, this isn't go back to it, but, you know, this isn't
00:12:04
Speaker
I mean, mail-ins, yes, very good. But like, Lewington, Alex Lewington's not going to, you know, and Duncan Taylor, like they're not going to burn you on the edge. Low, I think, will. Keenan will. They don't make you pay. Yeah. They don't make you pay. Right. And teams know to, at least it seems like people know to, teams know to target Johnny May. So a lot of opportunity there. There you go.
00:12:31
Speaker
Okay, onto the Sharks hosting Bordeaux. This is this one. Interesting. I doubt it. Sharks are 2-0, Bordeaux are 0-2, and traveling. But so far, the traveling team has been not great in South Africa. That's true. And Bordeaux are 0-2. So what are they, if they're gonna come out of this with one win, are they gonna sacrifice this week or next week? This one, I'd bring the shags for this one.
00:13:01
Speaker
Yeah, I wouldn't be shocked and try to win at home next week to make your way through if you can For the Sharks, I'm looking at a Beth at lock. I don't I know we don't name too many of them but He again, he should probably have eight to ten points to that a minimum This one see Khaleesi to kind of same thing. He's kind of a low-end starter, but certainly we're taking a look at
00:13:25
Speaker
Kerwin Bosch, McPimpy, yes and yes. Werner Kock has scored in each game, but he has like 0.3 total points because he had the yellow and he just didn't have any other points in the other game, despite scoring a try in each match. So even though he's at midfield in FRD, he's still a bubble player. I'm annoyed because I have him on my team, but I don't know what I can do with that. On the other side, Bordeaux, I'm guessing they'll play Tom Willis.
00:13:54
Speaker
or at least he's the one that I would look at and maybe tomboy. Other than that, I'm I think I'm staying away from them this week. Yeah. Yeah, I doubt they send the likes of Jelly Bear down there. He's right. And even so, I wouldn't expect a good performance because. It's the travel alone is affecting teams, right? All right, we got Munster and Northampton.
00:14:22
Speaker
I'm not sure what the heck happens bringing to this one as well. Uh, but Munster are obviously, um, Brian just stomping their way towards, uh, a home, a home, uh, knockout match here and one of the top seats. So I would expect them to bring it. So for the home team. Carberry. Yes. Monster front rows. Thumbs up for me. Um, Casey, if he's a halfback, but not Carter Murray.
00:14:53
Speaker
um tech burns one of my one of the locks that i have that i have up there if you're hot up for a lock that's a good one combs for the back row uh maybe hotnet also there um jack o' dani who has not done a ton thus far so i'm gonna go with a no on that one um
00:15:15
Speaker
Frisch has the potential in midfield. So I guess that's something, but, um, really, I don't know if I'd love anybody in the midfield for Munster in terms of this. So take that for what that's worth. Uh, OB, Mike Haley. Absolutely. Like gotta go. Gotta have him. The dudes played really well.
00:15:36
Speaker
thus far in this thing. I like Conway a lot. I'm just not sure about this format. So that's got me concerned. Zebo and Earl's same category as well. Like him a lot, but just not sure about the format and the scoring. So it has me a little concerned.
00:15:53
Speaker
Saints. Oh, oh boy. What are they bringing? Is Finn Smith healthy? Are they going to play him? I don't know. Still scores well, so I guess. I don't see Alex Mitchell playing this game in any case, so past that. If Ludlam's there, then he might be worth the roll. Don't love it. Dings, if he's there, yes.
00:16:17
Speaker
And then yeah, like a lot of the outside backs have actually been pretty good. So like Freeman is the top of the list for sure. Um, but even like Ram is also a possibility as well. I like him. So I do like him. Yeah. Keep that, keep that in mind as well. Again. Yeah. There's no reason to think that, uh, um, I mean, we'll see what the weather's like, but other than that, the scenes attack should be okay. They don't, they're just going to get scored on a lot. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
00:16:49
Speaker
OK, back down to South Africa.
Player Performance & Match Strategies
00:16:51
Speaker
Oh, you're done, right? No, yeah. OK, back down to South Africa for the Bulls hosting Exeter. The Bulls are one on one. They beat Leon at home and lost at Exeter. Again, you know, kind of rough to travel. Exeter 2 and 0, 1 at Cash and versus the Bulls.
00:17:09
Speaker
With, to me, the Exeter have kind of wrapped it up as far as moving on. I'm not sure what kind, and they need help in the prem, so I'm not sure what kind of team they're going to take here, whether they want to throw their best squad at it. Right. And then even if they do, what do they, you know, this this Bulls team is
00:17:29
Speaker
you know, they didn't quite take advantage at Sandy Park. I think that'll be a different story down in South Africa. Yeah, Jake White said he's going to definitely bring it this week. Yeah. So like Nizem Carr, Bernard Vandalin, Mornay Steiner-Houssin, if he's starting, yes, Houssin, and then the midfield and back three. Just throw guys in there from Bulls, especially if Exeter do what I think they're going to do and bring Shags.
00:17:57
Speaker
For Exeter, I'd consider Sam Simmons, Joe Simmons, and race yourself, Henry Slade. But that's about it. And I think they're iffy on a long road trip anyway. So yeah, I feel like they're going to put out the shags just to think long term. They're going to do a pull of Gloucester here. Wouldn't be shocked. Which isn't, again, I don't have a problem with that. I know people do, but I think that's the right thing to do.
00:18:20
Speaker
Yeah, the way the format is right now. That's that's what you do. Right. And they want the format, but that's right. Start for a different day. Yeah. All right. And we have a lot of shell in Ulster. This ended up being a very tasty match. Once Ulster got their heads out of their bums the other week. So with that, let's go with the host lower shell. Yeah.
00:18:50
Speaker
You should be good to go as long as he's healthy, but I have no issue with that. Caballo. Yes. Front row. Yes. Big Willie skeleton. Yep. Um, Aldrich, another, another one that I would throw in there. Dante. Yes. And then, um, blades and doula are my favorite of the OBS as well. So plenty of options there. Um, yeah. And again, I think the ulcer are O and two as well. So that also was a concern for this whole thing.
00:19:16
Speaker
And yeah. Oh yeah. And if we happen to see like Toma or rule, don't, don't throw them away. That's also an option. I'm just wanting to point that up. So for Ulster, I don't know what they're bringing number one, but number two, uh, John Cooney, if he's in, yes. Um, I still like Ian Henderson. So I'd give that a roll. Timoni is my favorite loose forward right now. I don't love Vermeulen in this format. So, um, I have concerns about that. So.
00:19:45
Speaker
Try not to play that if you can help it. Midfield, human McCloskey. Yeah. All right. Luke Marshall, maybe. Again, I don't love him, but I have McCloskey myself and I'm weighing whether or not I want to chuck him in there.
00:20:02
Speaker
If you need a starter and that's what's in there, then sometimes you don't complain, but like, you know, it's not going to, it's not going to blow your skirt up by any means. Still want better. Yeah. You're hoping for better. Uh, OBs are probably the most exciting section. Um, hopefully they can start to fire Lowry, Gilroy McElroy, uh, Bella Kuhn. Maybe we see this Jake Stockdale vault as well. That'd be nice. Um, but in any case, those are, those are the ones that excited me as well.
00:20:30
Speaker
Okay, back up to Stonex. Saracen's hosting Leon. Saracen's 2-0, Leon 0-2. Again, I'm not sure what Leon are going to do with this. Either way, Saris are kind of on a little bit of a warpath here anyway.
00:20:49
Speaker
It's always tough to win at Sarri's. Leona struggling, um, for Sarri's the front row, Mauro Itoji, Ben Earl, Billy Funipola. I'm guessing Gud will be at 10. Um, and then Daly and Malin's, um, thrown out there too, because they've been scoring like monsters. Um,
00:21:10
Speaker
from the onside, their front row, Baptiste Couilleux, Fletcher Smith at 10 versus no Faz. He's been scoring pretty well in this comp, so I would ride that again. And Nakatasi was a fucking demon versus Sarri's last round. I don't see any reason that they- Wasn't sad to see him lead the field. Right. If he's healthy, then he's the guy, they will match him up against like a Lewington or a Maitland, and it's not gonna go well for the Sarri's.
00:21:41
Speaker
Yeah. He'll be annoying. He'll be annoying at the minimum. He'll be cursing his name this weekend. Yeah. I'm sure I'll be saying his name a fuckload a shit ton. All right. Uh, we got Osprey's and Montpellier. Montpellier have a bone to pick here. So just be careful.
00:22:03
Speaker
for the Ospreys, um, sad to say there's not a lot of options in terms of ones that scored like Reese Webb was one that scored a little bit. So half back. Yes. Uh, Morgan Morris was serviceable as a, as a, as a loose forward has scored both games so far. So if we can keep that up, then that makes him somebody worth note.
00:22:26
Speaker
if you need an OB from the Ospreys, Alex Cuthbert's the one. And really that's all I'm interested in at this point for the Ospreys. For Montpellier, different story here. Carbonell, yes. Reinach, yep. Mercer, do I need to say it? Yeah, but it's so nice to say it. It is so nice to say, I agree. Darmon,
00:22:53
Speaker
their midfield, their, that, that young midfielder, they got in there, like him a lot. I really do. Um, Obies are again, another place. That's got some real fun names in there. Bridge, Bootier, Rogers, and good David. I'm okay with any of those right now. Yeah. Appreciate you to pick it the fuck up. If you can't tell he's on my team. I don't disagree with that either. So yeah, those are, those are the ones
Fantasy Rugby Tips & Strategies
00:23:19
Speaker
that get me. Yeah. Those are the names that get me out of the chair.
00:23:24
Speaker
Okay. It's keeping with scorchers cast hosting Edinburgh. Caster on to Edinburgh one on one with their one win being over cast cast still nobody you're not, you're not, no, you're not playing any of them.
00:23:41
Speaker
Um, for Edinburgh, I think you got to look at Crosby, Richie and Matt and Matt to all three of them have been scoring well with each other in them games. So this is still a good matchup. There you go. Um, and Duhan and Buffalo absolutely. Uh, and maybe even Lang maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe. Yeah. He has been playing well. So he didn't, and he shouldn't score pretty well this match.
00:24:11
Speaker
All right, we have exiles and stormers at in Brentford. So keep that in mind. Let's go with the exiles.
00:24:23
Speaker
We're going to go all the way to the back row first, because nothing about their fly-off, their front row, their half-back situation excites me. So, loose forwards, they have a few that could be worth your time. Gonzalez, Pearson being the big ones that I would look at the most. Midfield, Bernard, he's always on my list. He made this list of, he's the one that made my rankings last time, so.
00:24:46
Speaker
I would keep him in mind as well. Hassel Collins. Loader's actually been playing really well the last couple of weeks. So I give him a look and then Sinti. Sinti as well, big time, especially back at home. I would give them a hard look. For the Stormers.
00:25:03
Speaker
Number one, it's all about what they bring. But with that, Monty Leibach is good. Willem Sepp, he's been playing 12-watt, so I don't love it. So I'm a little scared off on that one, unfortunately, as much as I like the guy. Over to Loose Forward, Furry is my favorite one over there for the Stormers. And then, Midfield, I was kind of,
00:25:33
Speaker
excited about, um, Oh, possibly when he was on the wing and he was in the midfielder the other week and it was just a big old flop. So there's take that for what it's worth. Um, and then, uh, Obies, um, still have sonata. So I, you know, give that, give that one a look. And then, um,
00:25:56
Speaker
I'm going to totally butcher this guy's name. Long chase, I think is how you say it. So we'll go, we'll go with that one. Anyway, uh, scored well. So he's a, he's another name to look at as well for the stormers. It's hard for me to not think. You said the quiet part out loud, buddy.
00:26:22
Speaker
All right, you out there, stop Googling. Just put it down. Trust me, you don't want that on your phone anyway. Certainly not on a work computer, please. Definitely not.
00:26:39
Speaker
Okay. Rossing hosting quins. Rossing to me inexplicably 0 and 2. Twins are 1 and 1 with their loss being at the Sharks. Again, that trip down to South Africa is quite the bitch. Rossing, it's entirely lineup dependent.
00:26:57
Speaker
But you've got to figure that Finn, Fiku, Wade, Imoph, and others will pay off. Quinn's defense has been leaky, I guess is the proper term. They're a lot like Saints in a lot of ways. They're going to score, and they're going to let up points. Well, and they'll let up points either way. But usually, just who knows if they're scoring. It's been off and on lately. That may change with Marcus back. We'll see.
00:27:27
Speaker
Um, so for, but then for the quiz, but you still, it doesn't matter who is wire, uh, big Andre. Yes. Marchant bubble, but lean. Yes. At this point Bassett's been scoring. So I got to go with yes. Um, and Marley and Nick David, like that's not exactly in order, but Marley would be your, your top option there, but they're all quality options. Um, again, Marcus, if he's playing Dom brand only, if Marcus is playing.
00:27:58
Speaker
Yeah, and I would say Dom brand if he can get Kenny Emmer Evans back. Yeah, cuz he's they he's he's suffered without them Yes, cuz it's he's like the lone lone Ranger out there the lone runner and it's really easy to take it easy to take him out and Then you don't deal with any forwards really. Yep. He's the only forward you have to pay attention to Yeah, gross Oti dubs
00:28:22
Speaker
Oh, the weeks. Of the weeks. Okay. So this one was a kind of a cupcake for me in terms of picking them, but this is the round I want to pick them in. Cause we're only going to pick one, somebody once while we're doing this thing, this particular comp. So, uh, I'm going to use it. This is the, this is the week I'm going to use Anton Astoy. That's my start of the week. Not bad. No.
00:28:48
Speaker
This week, I will, again, brace yourself for this one. Mostly because they're kind of, his opponents are loose against loose forwards in general. And on the road, it's going to be bad. And I think, I still think they're going to send the shags. And I'm pretty sure that the Bulls are going to start in the same car who has been a terror.
00:29:13
Speaker
And so this in car is my start of the week. And he was having fun before he left was for before I lost one belly up too. So not a bad idea. All right. Um, I don't love whether or not he plays is irrelevant. I don't love what's going to happen over in, uh, over at Tillman park. And I love this player, but man, he's just been on a bad, bad, bad way.
00:29:40
Speaker
I'm calling out Alex Mitchell for my set of the week this week. Champions Cup from Saints. Yuck. Just has it. Yeah. All right. My set of the week. Let me get back to it. I mentioned him in my preview. He's on my team. I may have to start him anyway, depending on matchups and all that. I don't know. But I'm still not really I'm really not looking forward to if I have to this to play Vernercock. Yeah.
00:30:11
Speaker
You like the designation in terms of a midfielder playing in the, as an OB. So it's intriguing and you want it to work out, but sometimes it doesn't. Without the yellow last week, he would have been okay, but that's, you know, he's lucky that wasn't a red. Yeah, no kidding. No kidding. It's like, uh, you were lucky to be on the field, sir. All right. Pick of them.
00:30:38
Speaker
This could be interesting. I still have a two game lead on you. So. I picked one up, right? Yes, you did. You picked one up last week. And the Bears lost. Yeah. Who knew the Bears were going to be that bad? They were going to be that bad. Right. True. All right. Friday, Claremont and Lester hosts. Yeah. Go Claremont. Sale to lose. To lose. To win.
00:31:08

00:31:59
Speaker
I'm actually, I mean, it's more of a who it is, but I'm, I've been impressed with Edinburgh. Yeah. From what I expected. They've outperformed expectations and cast have not. No, no, no. When they're leaning back on worry cockpit, you know, it's a problem. Yeah. Little Irish and stormers. I will give it to the host. I'm going to waiting. Yeah. You go stormers. Yeah. Okay.
00:32:28
Speaker
And then, um, Rossing and Quinn's hosts. Yeah. I, geez. Quinn's have not been good. Rossing can't go. Oh, and three. No. Oh geez. Um, it'll be blasphemy. If that happens, you kidding me. There'll be an uproar. It'd be an absolute uproar. Cool. All right. So we have one difference. So you're either gaining one or I'm getting one back. Hmm.
