The Voluntary Tackle - NRL Podcast

Chip joins Aimon from Long Bay Jail to chat about Sam Walker's origin hopes, what to do with all the wooden spoons at the Tigers, and how to introduce Rolf Harris to the NRL.

WE ARE BACK!!!   After a longer off season than Bronson Xerri, TVT returns to chat St George crime spress, Dolphins anonymity, season predictions, and Roald Dahl conspiracies.    Great to be back with you tacklers!

Aimon and Mario commandeer a burnt out car to broadcast the big issues in league, including Radley nutting an Irishman, Hastings getting swapped for a menopausal forward, and a possible return of Mitchell "the plague" Pearce to Bondi. Plus, we delve into why Mario collects and eats old coins. Nice to be with you Tacklers!

Aimon and Mario fight over an old t-bone and talk about Australia knocking off NZ in the World Cup, question if Nathan Cleary is up to big matches, make suggestions for solving knee-lifting tackles, and research the career of Golden Boot bolter Joran Schoenmaker.

Mario and Aimon ask serious questions about the safety of French players in a JWH world, cast doubts over the idea of a pre-season competition, and poke holes in the Knights' bid to sign Luke Brooks, plus a whole lot more including an ongoing technical glitch which makes Aimon sound as though his lip has been sting by an angry wasp. Nice to be with you Voluntary Tacklers!

Zoom stitches up Aimon and makes him sound like Ita Buttrose for some reason but that doesn't stop the boys talkiing all things World Cup, Manly sackings, and making wild departures into the worlds of woke Guess Who, grumpy Sean Connery impressions and haggis. Enjoy Voluntary Tacklers!

Aimon walks (mainly in an out-of-breath fashion) and muses about the 2023 NRL season, the Golden Girls, baldness conspiracies, and slightly more.

Hi Voluntary Tacklers! Today the boys find an old can of baked beans and some left over bacon fat to feast on as they talk about the disintegration of the Manly club, the numerical dyslexia of jersey numbers, whether Laurie Daley wears a hairpiece, the best minnow side of the World Cup, and so much more.

The boys pour a glass of vinegar cut with dishwashing liquid to chat about Munster's snub of the Dolphins, the percived arrogance of the Panthers, Ben Hunt versus young talent, what makes a jersey look like vomit and much, much more.   Follow us on Twitter @Voluntarytackle
