WEBVTT - 🏉 NRL Analysis - Matty is back from Paris 0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:02.679 Better than the lego better leg. 0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:13.600 I was talking footy in our coops the past month 0:00:13.800 --> 0:00:17.760 in particular, there's been some really unusual score lines, some blowouts, 0:00:17.800 --> 0:00:20.880 but lots of points scored forty to thirty six, forty 0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:24.720 to thirty four, forty eight, thirty and so on. What 0:00:24.840 --> 0:00:28.960 is is drinking its post origin quicker rucks from the referees. 0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:31.880 Have you been watching the footy while having some beers. 0:00:31.600 --> 0:00:33.120 On the I listen. 0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:34.519 I wasn't having a lot of beers, but I was 0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:36.000 working at two o'clock every morning. 0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:37.000 I actually worked out. 0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:38.519 Good to have your back anyway, I'll be watching the. 0:00:39.200 --> 0:00:41.360 I realized when I was away with what real work is. 0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:43.720 It was great. I loved it over there. It was 0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:44.640 good to answer your question. 0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:46.880 Yeah, there has been some blows, and I think there's 0:00:47.120 --> 0:00:50.080 a gap between the haves and the haves not. The 0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:53.040 reason why I say has is like storm panthers, like 0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:55.240 it doesn't matter what mood they're in, doesn't matter what 0:00:55.320 --> 0:00:57.720 time here, the position on the ladder. They just have 0:00:57.800 --> 0:01:00.320 this consistency about them that they will fight for every 0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:02.600 inch every time they lace up their boot. That's the 0:01:02.640 --> 0:01:05.119 thing that you get confidence as a fan watching your team, 0:01:05.600 --> 0:01:08.200 but they have knots well. I feel like it depends 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:10.679 on what mood they're in whether they can play footy 0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.720 today or not. Because their best football I'm talking like 0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:16.560 the Broncos and the Warriors, the Cowboys on the weekend, 0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:19.959 their best football is finals, but their worst football is 0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:21.560 there's a huge gap between. 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:24.119 It keeps the best example of that, let let's talk 0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:27.080 about the Titans. We were saying just recently tightened to 0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:29.440 that terrible start of the season. With the better start 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:32.200 and the way they've been playing or same, my god, 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:33.760 not just in the top eight, they'd be starting to 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.800 press the top four. And then you get I mean, 0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:39.800 explain this to me. Two weeks ago, their second half 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:43.400 against the Broncos they win thirty six nil, probably one 0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:45.040 of the greatest halves. 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:47.440 Of football in that club club's history. 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:50.680 The next half of football the next week, the first 0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:55.360 half against the Sharks, they get beat thirty nil, one 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.360 of their worst How can a professional rugby league side, 0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:00.680 how can that happen? 0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:04.280 I think if you are consistent from the first day 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:07.600 in November in pre season, you'll be consistent on Grand 0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:11.560 Final day. If you are inconsistent throughout the weeks, you 0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:14.040 will get a great performance one day and you'll get 0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:17.160 a poor performance the next. And I feel like when 0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:19.799 it comes back to how can you answer and how 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:21.960 can we put like a number on why this is 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:25.520 such a big gap. It has to be individual accountability. 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.920 It can't be anything more than that, because if you 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:29.760 and I feel like we're going to play day, I'm 0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:31.079 going to work hard. I'm going to help you be 0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:33.000 the best player we can be. I think we get 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:35.920 a great performance. But if I sit back and go, oh, 0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:37.400 I'm going to going to work, I'm going to let 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:39.600 Matthew do the work today. I just don't feel like 0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:42.160 it today. I think that's when you get your inconsistency, 0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:46.000 and that's the performance. You don't have to be dramatically off. 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:48.520 I'm not talking like a fifty cent mindset shift. I'm 0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:53.399 talking one two three percent because you can't have the performances. 0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:56.400 And the Broncos are exactly the same poor performances for 0:02:56.480 --> 0:02:59.840 six weeks. Down at halftime against the Cowboy's away from Home, 0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:03.200 There's season has been on line for a month. I'll 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:04.960 tell you what that was. Some of the best football 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:06.280 I've seen a player at ages. 0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:08.480 It is I just go back to that Titans versus 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:10.720 the Broncos game for a sec because being over there, 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:13.160 I didn't get an opportunity saw some of the games, 0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:14.440 but not all of them. 0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:17.040 What happened in that second half. 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:22.400 Because is it almost like the Broncos submitted, because it 0:03:22.560 --> 0:03:25.320 seems to say, but if it was hazard a guess, 0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:29.400 I would say that that first half against Cronulla has 0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:33.960 been a byproduct against playing against the side forty minutes 0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:37.320 before they're basically totally surroundered and let them just do 0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:38.000 whatever they want. 0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:43.640 We always say, you know, compliments sort of yes, shift 0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:46.920 your focus, whereas criticisms sharpens your sword. And I think 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:48.960 there's a little bit of complacency, a little bit of 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:52.040 pat in the back, a little bit of all of that. 0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:55.920 But the thing about the Titans performance is like those 0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:59.640 wins and the teams that win the Grand Final is 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.840 because laid the foundation in November. It's not let it 0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:05.080 turn up in round twenty. Go all right, now we're 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.280 going to play. I think the teams that have really 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:12.400 high highs and low lows, inconsistent training means inconsistent on 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:13.240 game day. 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:17.480 With that theme, took the rise of the Kennary Bulldogs 0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:21.200 and you're saying about how winning starts in the off season, 0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:24.680 laying the bed rock down, giving yourself that big, strong base. 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:28.120 You can see with the Bulldogs the way they're playing 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:31.560 their football camera Sorealdo had the real vision of how 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:34.240 we wanted to play, and they've recruited on that, etc. 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:36.440 And I'll just go back, I'll take a little stlf 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:39.000 step back there for a second. This is why one 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:42.000 of the things I don't get is when a club 0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:45.360 decides I think it's time to move someone on a coach. 0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:47.920 But I'll tell you what to say. Face, Let's give 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:51.080 you the first six rounds of next year. Well, it 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.359 doesn't work because in the off season you are putting 0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:59.080 down your principles and your ideas. Now, with the Bulldogs, 0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:02.760 you can see that they recruited, they've done everything. Everything 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:05.440 they've done is geared towards the way they want to play. 0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:10.720 The traditional Bulldogs pack, a big, strong, and aggressive this 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:13.880 i'd reckon is the smallest pack in the competition, the Bulldogs, 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:17.440 But he's just playing a different playing a very cerebral 0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:21.320 type of football, light feet through the middle, short passing. 0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:23.400 And it's just it's going great guns. 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.680 To back up that foundation stuff. There's a reason why 0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:28.839 Craig Bewmy wins every round one under his coaching is 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.840 because he's layered the foundation. There's a reason why teams 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.520 make your Grand Final and then miss the finals the 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:37.120 next week, they haven't laid the foundation. In terms of 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:42.800 the Dogs, like, I love that Sieraldo hasn't changed his 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:47.279 approach because he is the architect of the Penrith defense, 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:50.720 the best defense we've seen, right, and then he gets 0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:54.640 the Dogs and his first year a bad defensive team, 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:57.559 you know, the worst in the competition, but it doesn't 0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:01.400 change the system. He gets people into to understand it better. 0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:05.000 He gets repetition and after doing hours and hours of work, 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.120 all of a sudden they're in the top bracket, the 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:10.360 best offensive team. So they've got workers, they've got commitment. 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:12.480 The system hasn't changed. It got just people being more 0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:14.600 effective and what's the rowd they needs him to do? 0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:17.280 And from round one the football they're playing this year, 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:20.200 they attempted to play that football from round one and 0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:23.599 they haven't so much changed. I mean behind the scenes, 0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:27.120 week to week you might just get a tiny little change, 0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:30.160 but they've laned a game plan and a principle down 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:32.600 this is how we're going to play it. And as 0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:35.960 a byproduct of not changing it up, every player as 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.520 it inside out, and once that starts to happen, you 0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:41.400 can start to form combinations. Like the first combination that 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:45.640 really formed was left hand Burton Kickou Bronson Cherry. But 0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:47.839 then all of a sudden, the middlemen they're smaller blokes 0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:50.760 that they're starting to form combination. And then finally the 0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:55.080 right edge Toby Sexton, kind of Tracy, Jacob Preston and 0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:58.400 Stephen Crichton. So they've got these beautiful little combinations, these 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:00.440 pockets of combination right across field. 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:03.360 I think the I think Stephen Crichton started the year 0:07:03.360 --> 0:07:05.919 at left center and it had all the ingrediens to 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:08.880 be the most dominant left sign but for defensively and 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:12.200 the team first mentality, Crichton had to go to the right. 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.400 They're really sure that side defensively, and he's done a 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:18.440 wonderful job. The other part too, is they're a small 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.600 forward pack, but they're getting the job done through heart 0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:24.640 and character. The flip side is of it, they missed 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:26.760 a lot of tackles. They missed more tackles than the 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:30.360 dragons on the weekend. Can that scramble defense, the ones 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:33.160 where they miss a lot. Can it stop Penrith? Can 0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:36.120 it stop Storm? Who don't miss opportunities when given? 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:39.080 I'll say this, Coop, I think there's two types of misses, 0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:42.160 and the tackles that they are missing or get it 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.000 marked down on the street that are missing I think 0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:46.800 are low risk miss miss tackles. So it's like this, 0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:50.200 if you move up in the line, nice and strong 0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:53.520 and you kick out and he bounces off you, you 0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:55.600 get that as a miss, but it's not. It's a 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:57.920 It's not a bad miss missed to a line break 0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:00.520 absolutely to a quick play there you find your sitting 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:02.360 on your hurls and they just go straight through you. 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:06.040 That's a costly miss because it's a smaller pack of forwards. 0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:08.600 There's a lot of hitting and players bouncing off, but 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:11.480 other guys are making the tackles, so they're not bad misses. 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:15.360 And the challenge will be can Marnie kirk Man, Josh 0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:18.280 Karen can they do it to Fish? Harris Leoda? Can 0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:21.560 they do it to Nelson? Those bigger packs consistently? But 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:24.360 I'll tell you what, they're working very hard for. 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:27.000 One another moment, a couple of players want to talk 0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:29.120 about first time we're talking about Kurt Man. And it's 0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:32.959 clear the camera in Serraaldo has given Kurt Man clear 0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:37.360 instructions and clear boundaries. Newcastle, they almost let Kurt do 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:40.120 whatever he wanted to a certain extent. And you know, 0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:41.640 he was trying to do a little bit of everything, 0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.439 and he tied himself in knots and. 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:46.080 That he had no breaks. You're seeing Kurt nearly all 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:46.559 of the time. 0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:49.600 He's running just late footwork, Pogan through the line, play 0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:52.400 the ball quick, occasionally a nice little pass, the short 0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:56.480 passer out the back. He's playing. He's just playing. It's 0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:58.720 the best football I've seen ing players career. He's still 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:01.120 got a little bit of old Kurt in him. There's 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:03.920 just and that is sometimes he gets he gets married 0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:06.720 to a decision too long. Look, here's an example here 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:08.480 where he's trying to force a little bit. 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.160 He overplays his hand big time. Here, Kurt Man, because 0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:14.200 right now, stop there. If he goes inside shoulder on 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.439 Mariner creates one on one with kick al and Ben 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:19.120 Hunt try it, yep, but he is trying to finesse this. 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:22.600 He's already got to his target defender. He overplays it. 0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:24.640 And turns over the ball. But he all he need 0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:27.720 to do is go arrow straight the inside shoulder Mariner 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:28.600 and that is a try. 0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:31.320 And that was that was a lot of times for 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:34.800 the tailor of tape at Newcastle. I'd see him, I'd 0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:37.160 see Kurt and it was a little bit with Connor 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:37.800 Watson when. 0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:40.640 He was there as well. The high spured, high energy players. 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:44.080 But if you let that, if you let those players basically, 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:45.679 if you don't put boundaries. 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:46.800 Around, they're going to do They're going to tie himselves 0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:47.600 are not sometimes? 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:49.360 Yeah, if the one thing he probably need to learn 0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:51.640 on that play is count the numbers. Once you've got 0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:54.040 the advantage as a ball player, you don't need to 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:57.080 go sidewones. You've got the five on four, the four 0:09:57.120 --> 0:10:02.120 and three. It's go straight to create the advantage outside. 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:06.280 Good performance and he since he's coming to that football side, 0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:08.680 they've gone from strength to strength and so is he. Yeah. 0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:11.640 I think they started off with Drew Hutchinson's steady hand, 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:14.480 good organizer, but this kid's added to it. Like this 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:18.160 couple of tri Sissy had here. Nice kick that's instinct 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:20.280 that's drifting across the field with time and space and 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:23.800 reacting but this one here is very smart. He's got 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.880 that there's a kick gain, but understands the instinct, gets 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:29.840 the freedom to do it, but try late on for 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:31.280 bronze and cherry by pass. 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:34.840 This is very smart sugam in it. And that's that's 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:35.600 a tough pass. 0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:38.319 That that flat cut out pass and decision at the 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:40.880 last moment, that's that's a that's a really. 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.240 Tough ball Ben Hunt. He realized Ben Hunt turns in 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.319 on kick out and just opens up that space and 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.319 threw a bullet past the cherry. So I think he's 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:51.960 added to And I think the other part or the 0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:56.320 indication that says you've been an effective halfback is the 0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:59.440 space that he's providing for Connor Tracy and Matt Burton. 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.520 Those guys are getting a lot of touches and cause 0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:03.160 them damage. 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:05.600 God, what about the role they're on at the moment. 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:09.920 Give me a predicted finish. There's one hundred bucks. You 0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:11.480 tell me where they finish. 0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:15.040 I think they finish fifth. I think they play a 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:17.200 home final right at the end of the Yet, yeah, 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:21.400 i think they've got a core almost sold out. Whoever 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.960 they're playing. They will win Week one and then it's 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:28.200 whether that forward pack can go away to the loser 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.880 of the type and beat their big forward pack, because 0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:34.440 you imagine, like the Roosters would be pretty scary for 0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:36.760 that forward pack to handle. I love what their edge 0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:39.120 defense is doing. Yeah, but it's just whether they can 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:40.400 win that week two. 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:42.280 Yeah, my gud Phil will be the same. 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:45.120 Second week of the finals would would be a fit 0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:48.440 amazing achievement. I supposedly get if they get through that 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:50.520 first week and they come up against the Roosters or 0:11:50.559 --> 0:11:53.960 a Storm or Sharks, one of those sides, they'll go 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:56.000 in with that underdog mentality as we've. 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:56.680 Been playing all year. 0:11:57.080 --> 0:12:00.640 But jeez, I just think depending on what side of 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:03.040 the droy you sit on, Boyd's, it'd be. 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:05.160 Too fair against the Dragons. They've got a big, powerful 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:07.200 food pack and there was a lot of reasons for 0:12:07.240 --> 0:12:09.880 the Dragons to play well against the Dogs, and they 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:12.120 got the job done. Kurt Man vision. There was a 0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:14.440 lot of space for kirk Man to do his thing. 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:16.800 That's the way the Dogs need to play. They need 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:19.680 space for the little men to use their footwork and 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:20.480 their passing game. 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:23.319 It was soon a bit of comebackside than the peneth. 0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:27.440 That like it was. It was scary. Good for the 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:28.240 to be just. 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:30.560 Ticking down and you run out of time. 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.040 You got fourteen points to pick up, and you just 0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:35.720 don't panic whatsoever and just get it done. 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:38.600 When Liam Martin went to the sin bin, they actually 0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:41.320 went up a gear like go back and watch the play. 0:12:41.360 --> 0:12:44.640 The bull speed, the intensity at which they ran, their 0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:47.280 ability just to get into this. Here was the player 0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:50.199 that sealed it. Poor defense from powermatter in that period 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:55.800 of time. In the last ten minutes, I ao Nathan Cleary, Yeah, 0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:58.280 very very good. I loved it. When they were under 0:12:58.280 --> 0:12:59.560 pressure they actually went a bit harder. 0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:03.199 And the setup or the big comeback, the setup for 0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:07.280 that is the first thirty minutes of football we have seen. 0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:09.720 They have got so much trust in the way they play. 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:12.960 As far as the inside balls starting, I've I've been 0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:14.320 watching them a little bit and start to think are 0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:17.800 they starting a little too conservative? But the inside balls, 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:21.280 inside balls, inside balls, and as no coincidence, with about 0:13:21.280 --> 0:13:24.000 fifteen to go, you can see the opposition the middle 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:25.320 start that hit the ball. 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:28.559 Before the taruva try so that they score through Brian 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:31.840 Tore and they get the kickoff set and it's not 0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:37.000 Penrith's system it's shift right, shift left, shift right. They 0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:40.199 went nineteen meters, got an attacking kicking from clear in 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:44.080 taruver scores. Right then, I thought, oh, there are a 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:46.400 big chances chasing down this school board here. 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:49.480 I once spoke to interview the Great huban Omen about 0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:52.000 riding Winks, and he said, no matter how far it 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:55.000 got behind, he said, I barely had to pull a whip. 0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:58.719 He said, I would just let Winks tell me what 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:02.480 it was right to go nice, impatience. Here's an example 0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:05.920 here right, Look this Wink stakes and that's on the outside, 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:08.280 the first on the outside in the in the blue 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:08.720 and white. 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:09.440 Right there. 0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:12.400 You think yourself, Nu can't pick him up? Remember this race, 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:14.480 and you go no, no, no, no, no no. But 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:18.400 from Hugh there's no panic whatsoever. Gives a little bit 0:14:18.400 --> 0:14:20.840 of a tickle, but mainly hands and heels and ends 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:22.080 up winning in a canter. 0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:24.640 Huey Bowman's Nathan Cleary. 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:28.760 I was wondering that you put an allergy between Winks 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:31.280 and Clearer. Is just showing me how much money you 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:32.360 had on Winks that day. 0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:34.200 I didn't that day. 0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:37.880 I thought it's due to loss, it's dual loss. I 0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:39.800 did back, but you know what I mean, you're sitting 0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:44.320 there every time Winks ran, everyone to be standing in 0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:45.760 the pub, all the club and just. 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:50.040 Going no, no, no, not today, not today. And then Runners. 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:53.040 The other impressive thing about whether it's Winks is on 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:57.240 the Unbeate run or Beenth, you just feel like there's 0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.120 going to be a flat spot, but there just isn't. 0:14:59.240 --> 0:14:59.320 No. 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.560 Nathan's out for how many weeks? Is Leuais steps and 0:15:03.560 --> 0:15:06.960 gets your job done? Dylan Edwards was terrific. Nathan comes 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.800 back down by what is it fourteen with tend to go, 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:14.240 they get the job done. Grand Final, like there's it's 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:15.160 just it's scary good. 0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:16.240 It's still there to lose. 0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:19.760 Yeah, they are pole position absolutely, I don't know, it 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:23.160 doesn't matter what else Skeets said. They are absolutely the 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:24.000 favorites right now. 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:25.400 And they've had this certain amount of luck. 0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:27.880 I mean, if you look at Nathan, he's playing fresh, 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:32.640 he's like different times through this amazing dynasty they've had. 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:35.920 They have lost key players at different manument, but it's worked. 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:37.840 For it and they're winning different ways too. It's not 0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:41.200 as if they've won one way the whole time. They've 0:15:41.200 --> 0:15:45.080 had challenges behind injuries whatever it is. 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:52.760 Terrific club, terrific Sharks interesting. On the weekend, we spoke 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:56.280 to this for another example of becurse of key men, 0:15:56.360 --> 0:16:00.840 missing key creative men being basically being forced to simply 0:16:01.320 --> 0:16:02.480 simplify your football. 0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:04.200 Don't worry about all the flowery stuff. 0:16:04.440 --> 0:16:08.280 Just get back to really simple, direct power football and 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:10.960 how you suddenly find your best stuff. Like on the weekend, 0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:15.640 Blake Brailey's playing half back and they just simplified. They 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:19.360 did less, they passed the ball sideways less, They just 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:22.240 were very simple power game and that's that's how they 0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:22.800 should play. 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:24.680 It was a perfect storm for the Sharks for on 0:16:24.720 --> 0:16:30.800 the weekend because injuries simplifying football, make a really basic approach. 0:16:31.120 --> 0:16:32.800 And on the other side of the field, well, they 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:34.960 got a little bit too carry away with themselves, the Titans, 0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:38.680 and just came out lacking intensity, lacking commitment, and it 0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:42.440 just really set them on the course. To you, it 0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:44.960 doesn't matter if Heinz comes back in or not, like 0:16:45.040 --> 0:16:47.640 that's how they should play. Then give him the ability 0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:49.920 to row him around the field and come up with. 0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:57.320 What do you think firstly about the Sharks right predicted 0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:59.000 to finish, what do you think they'll. 0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:01.680 Finish top four. But the thing that happens with the 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:04.240 Sharks is they haven't won a finals game on a fitzgiven. 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:07.919 I don't think they've gone out straight sets and then 0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:12.760 out can So there's going to be some nervous tension 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:14.679 when the Sharks play their first finally and they're going 0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:17.040 to finish fourth. I means here going to play Melbourne 0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:19.199 in Melbourne, which they've done all penner. Depending on what 0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:23.000 happens this weekend, so I think they'll lose Week one, 0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:25.040 but then it's up to them the win Week two. 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.680 Yeah, let us lose again and then if they've. 0:17:27.480 --> 0:17:30.280 Got someone like the Dogs, depending on how the ladder 0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:33.520 falls in place, that's a big challenge, is not wrong. 0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:35.520 You don't want to be going out three years in 0:17:35.520 --> 0:17:39.920 a row like that. That leaves a pretty nasty scar paramatter. 0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:43.600 This is interesting Jason Rosey, You've had a lot of Rosy. 0:17:44.320 --> 0:17:46.399 He has got the biggest job in my opinion, this 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:49.480 coming up this offseason. He's trying to move players on 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:52.400 at the moment. The last one is ringing Hemil Gillard. 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:55.000 He's told like a sub and go Ryan Madison's the same, 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:58.800 but they get no takers at the moment. Meanwhile, probably 0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:01.720 the bigger issue is the rumors that are going, well, 0:18:01.960 --> 0:18:05.439 they've lost Blaze. Rumors are starting to go around always 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:07.760 do about Dylan Brown and the ridiculous contract and. 0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:08.800 Clauses he's signed. 0:18:09.160 --> 0:18:12.840 Well, the latest one has been around Mitchell Moses, which 0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:15.919 was originally that they would probably look to exercise his 0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:18.040 clause at the end of twenty twenty six. 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:20.920 He going, Oh my god, the end of twenty twenty six, 0:18:21.000 --> 0:18:21.439 I mean. 0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:25.800 Long, A lot of stuff's going to happen between now 0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:28.600 and then, But then rumors abound, whether it be true 0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:31.200 or not. I'm not sure that he may aggravate for 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:32.159 an early release. 0:18:33.080 --> 0:18:35.560 I'm not sure what to make of all the noise, 0:18:35.640 --> 0:18:39.080 what it's true, what's not, what is reality? But if 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:43.560 I'm Jason Ryles, he may have done this already. He 0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:49.240 may not have. But I'm getting Moses, Brown, Guthson, Will Peraccini, 0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:52.080 and maybe one or two others, and I'm getting them 0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:54.280 over to my house for dinner, and I'm saying, listen, 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:56.760 this is what I can do, this is the dream, 0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:58.720 this is what I can sell. We're going to work 0:18:58.760 --> 0:19:01.320 our backsides off, and what you think is paramounta Now 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:05.399 will not be in six months time because all this 0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:08.760 noise is not good. He really needs to get some 0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:11.760
