17/08/2013 Busgate

This Saturday Rub clip features JB, Garry, Spud and Damo with another nomination for headwobbler of the year. Spud grills Garry over an issue that came up last week. This grilling goes for a very long time, and he tells Damo to sit back and listen because it's about playing football. Ouch. He asks Wolf about his preparation before games, routines, superstitions etc. and how important it is to keep those routines interstate. Then it's onto how important bus trips are with the boys. What is Spud getting at here? Even Jim is getting frustrated with where this is at currently. The whole point of it all is that you don't have insignificant gyppers riding on the bus with the players. No dags hanging around, and if they have to be on the bus, they must be at the front. If someone sat in your seat, you thump them. God this is a long build-up. Get to your point, Spud. Alright, he's been doing his homework: there was Siddlegate, where Jim walked onto the green turf in Tasmania with Peter Siddle, something he said he'd never do because he doesn't deserve to be amongst the players, then gymgate, where Jim was running on the treadmill alongside Drew Petrie in the player's gym (listen to Spud talk about Jim's running style), now we have BUSGATE. North's Scott Thompson tells us that Jim was sitting on the back of the bus amongst the players as if he was one of them. Jim tries to say it's all news, but the boys say this is the first they've heard of it. Garry thinks they should trend this into #Jimgetoffthebusyaflog. But Jim has the nerve to say you can do whatever you want when you're the President. Spud reminds us that in the running for headwobbler of the year should be himself, which he admits he should win, much to the delight of the others, and definitely Garry for Desperate Demon, when he had an article written about himself during Shane Crawford's big moment riding across Australia, but now Busgate takes the cake. Off goes the trumpet for Jim the liniment sniffer. I don't even know what Spud is saying at this point. But one crispy concerned sitting at the back of the bus with a lump in his pants. And then Garry joins in as they go to a break.
