    Rod is a top bloke, he looked after his old mate, now he's looking after his young mate. Great to see him come out ahead for a change.
  • Really enjoy Rod’s attitude and how considerate he is of Les and others.
  • Rod is obviously a good person, he deserves every bit of successes he gets.
  • Putting these boys together was the best idea, these blokes are my favorite in the whole show.

    THAT'S JUST PLAIN WRONG FOLKS... I'VE CUT OPAL/GEMS BEFORE AND THAT WAS EASILY 200,000 DOLLARS!!!! AND WHO KNOWS HOW MUCH GRANNY HID UNDER THE MATTRESS???
  • Feel like JC is making a good name for himself, good lookin dude, enthusiastic and he’s getting screen time and coin. Dude is going to make it

    So happy for Rod, he's always working bloody hard and always manages to crack a smile. Good luck in the future Rod & JC 👍
  • being an opal miner for the past 5 years I can tell you this one inescapable fact Until it is sold it is worth nothing, it's just a pretty rock sitting around, Some stones I've been holding on to for years because no-one wants to pay what they are worth, others I've had to sell at a lower price just to keep things going. I've recently switched over to gold and have never had a problem getting rid of it the second I find it I know it's cash in my hand.
