THERE’S the saying “you can bet your arse on it” but Mark Geyer and Gus Worland are taking it literally — again.
The Triple M breakfast radio hosts — Geyer a Penrith great and Worland a Sydney Roosters tragic — are again prepared to risk being tattooed with each other’s team mascot should they lose this weekend.
“Two years ago myself and work mate Gus Worland had a tattoo bet on the match,” Geyer said.
“He is a Roosters fan and the Panthers won, so my seven-year-old daughter drew up the pictures.
“Gus unfortunately had to get a cat that looks like it has rabies on the back of his arse.
“I think we are going to do the same thing this week, that’s how much it means to us.

“But if I’ve got to get a Roosters tattoo, I’ll at least make it palatable.”
Geyer believes Saturday’s clash will be one of the games of the season.
“It’s the modern version of the Silvertails versus the Fibros,” he said. “Both these packs are gigantic and they’ve both got unbelievable benches.
“The Panthers bounced back on the weekend to what we all thought they were made of against the Tigers.
“There is no reason why this can’t be one of the blockbusters of the year and I’ve got no doubt that they’ll meet each other come September.
“It’s a really mouth-watering contest and the stage is set.”
