Transcript

00:00Randomly, you have been selected out of all our members to go to Vegas to watch our game.

00:09Hello.

00:10Hello Rowan.

00:12Yeah.

00:13It's Ricky Stewart from the Camaradas, mate. How are you?

00:16Yeah, good. How are you going, mate?

00:18I'm good, Rowan.

00:19Ben and the boys have asked me to make a few phone calls to some members and thank them for their membership,

00:26but to wish you all a Merry Christmas.

00:30Mate, I really appreciate it. Thank you, and I'm rooting for you guys to have a great season.

00:36I hope so. That's the plan. They're working very hard, the boys.

00:38It's been a pretty heavy six weeks, the last start of the pre-season, and we've got all the boys back now.

00:48Taps and Hutto joined us last week with Matty Tomoko, so we've got the whole crew back now, mate.

00:53They're working to make you guys proud of them.

00:57Are you going to Vegas?

01:01No. My wife is. My wife's going there for work, but she will be going for the game, but I'll be staying home on dad duty.

01:11What's the chances of getting someone to babysit the kids if you go to Vegas?

01:15Yeah, I know, I know. I've been to Vegas before, and I'm telling you, mate, keep those boys out of it.

01:22Yeah, I know.

01:23I don't know how you're going to do it, but gee.

01:25No, I know. It'll be a big job. Hey, Rowan.

01:28Yeah?

01:29Mate, randomly, you've been selected out of all our members to go to Vegas to watch our game.

01:37For two tickets.

01:38Really?

01:39100%.

01:40Bullshit.

01:41No, exactly, mate. I just got told this morning that you got selected, and I was asked to give you a call, and I jumped at the opportunity.

01:50I thought, well, fantastic for our loyal members. We've got so many loyal members.

01:54I say it after every game in our press conferences that we've got so many hard and loyal supporters and our members,

02:00and it gives me great privilege to basically announce the fact that you've got two tickets to Vegas.

02:10So maybe you'll have to look back on that opportunity of getting us some babysitters, mate, because you're going to need it.

02:17Mate, I can't. I haven't even won a bloody chook in a chook raffle.

02:22This is bigger than a chook in a chook raffle, mate.

02:27You all right? Mate, that's amazing.

02:30It's wonderful how we can give you this surprise but also give you the opportunity.

02:37Oh, that's fantastic. Thanks very much.

02:39No worries, Rowan. All the very best, mate. I'll get the boys to give you a bell today.

02:43All right. Thanks, mate.

02:44Thanks. See you, Rowan. Bye, mate.

02:46Bye.

02:51.
