[gentle music] The sizzling sausage, studs on cement, sport in the crisp wintry air. When the drawbridge goes up, see the absolute state of it. You're with Pez and Higgo, it's The Circus.

Footy has commenced, and also footy is about to commence depending on your code of choice. Vegas saw record crowds for this year's NRL excursion, but the Zach Lomax situation overshadowed it all perhaps. Although there was Golden Points, so there is that. The AFL starts this week, and Tom Papley is on the show to discuss culture, circuiting, coxey, horse, grand finals, and Brownlow voting. But what we really wanna know is, can Australia medal in Brisbane '32? The Matildas have commenced their campaign against the Philippines with a completely uns- unsatisfactory victory, but Sam Kerr is back on the goals and Mary Fowler is back on the pitch. There's also Comm Games gear, Premier League streaming. The F1 starts in Melbourne this weekend. You're gonna tell us what we got wrong in Boys Actually, and you're about to tell us what's getting you hot this week. But welcome back to another week of The Circus. My name is Zane Higgin. Sam Perry is next to me. Pezer, happy Circus to you.

Um, well, I am already looking forward to Boys Actually, um, because it's just a time where, you know, when you're listening to a show and someone says something that you know more about, then that is just, ah, it's fucking sugar into the bloodstream, you know what I mean? That makes you feel good, and it makes you feel good to receive that correspondence as well. So it's a satisfying, uh, commencement to the winter programming.
