Come and talk all things NRL...and stand Offside with JC and Noz</p>episodicJohn Ciaglia and Noah Mitchellnozza99@hotmail.comno<![CDATA[Episode 9: Reality Bites]]>JC and Noz contemplate the Cowboy-shaped iceberg off the coast of Townsville while lamenting the absence of any tangible form of tackling over the Anzac Day Round.

JC struggles to get his head around the concept of Hot Takes while Noz puts Jason Saab's magnificent "bomb" header into the historical record so future generations can marvel at Jason's civilization-changing feat.

The boys make a detour to "Cocktails and Dreams" on the Goldie and Noz brings it all home with a recounting of some of the all-time dud player signings.

...all the while, keeping the 80s alive (except Bob Lindner in an Eels jersey. That is one memory that can quite happily die)

Noz revels in an unexpected victory for his beloved Eels...and speaking of unexpected the pod sees a visit from Frankie Five Angels (and his brother). Not sure where we can go from there but JC does his best by trying to tackle, um, a tackle?

There is the usual round of mediocre tipping and JC Free Balls his way into the Sin Bin (accompanied by our schmicko new theme song).

All-in-all, another week at the Office for the boys (and make sure you stay tuned for the end!)

They also fix their gaze towards Perth and Port Moresby while Noz dons the Aztec Gold and takes a trip down Memory Lane on the Crusher Express.

And their tips for the week: is anyone interested in those? Well for the people who are, we have another bumper week of selections where JC may or may not lose the plot and Noz presents possible scenarios for a Blue-and-Gold Royal Commission.

All Aboard!

Speed Round is again in the vicinity of being an actual Speed Round and Noz takes aim at the whining Broncos. JC then takes us on a trip down memory lane with classic Jersey Sponsors (oh, and there is a bit of tipping but on current form you may be best advised to take that with the same amount of credulity as "Delta Force').

Also, keep an eye out for our new multi-media flourishes!
