Sportswriters Brett McKay and Ryan O’Connell are bearing the scars of a grand final thumping in Episode 55 of the Cheap Seats Podcast.
In this episode, Ryan opens up with the worst intro in Cheap Seats history, while Brett’s attempted positive spin on Michael Hooper’s captaincy quickly falls apart.
Episode 55 talking points
– Ryan’s #YouBloodyIdiots revenge;
– #AskTheCheapSeats: unfit Wallabies and Michael Hooper, NRC player development, and an NBA question that Brett was absent for;
– NRL finals: Souths and Canterbury to face off in the grand final, after a contrasting weekend of prelim finals, the boys’ GF preview and predictions, and a surprise drawn Dally M medal count;
– AFL: Hawthorn hand down the mother of all grand final thumpings to Sydney, which these two Swans supporters didn’t particularly enjoy, the legend of Luke Hodge grows, and all demographics covered in grand final day entertainment;
– Rugby: the Wallabies let one slip, the All Blacks don’t, and a quick NRC wrap;
– Brett’s Tweet of the Week, and Ryan’s bricks-and-mortar certainty for the weekend.
