Speaker 1: Thezi and Whipper Podcast.

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 2: We go into the Game three decider against Queensland tonight

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 2: up at sun Corpse Stadium, and one man who is

4
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 2: going to be motivating the boys this afternoon as assistant coach,

5
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: Danny Badias. He joins us ow good morning, Danny, Hey guys,

6
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 2: how are you now? Have you been taking Freddy's tips

7
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,119
Speaker 2: of a cold shower every morning? Danny? Do you do

8
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 2: that yourself? No?

9
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 3: Not not quite. But we've been a King's CLIs which

10
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 3: has been really good. We've been out for our morning

11
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 3: walks and all that sort of thing to start the

12
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 3: day into the ocean, and I've been with the Fords

13
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 3: a little bit. We've been pretty cold out there, so

14
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,279
Speaker 3: I've been a little bit of lung busters. I think

15
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 3: you've heard of them before underwater. It's been good.

16
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

17
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: Weird prep, Danny, really weird prep mate.

18
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right. The couple of sportsticks.

19
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, Danny. Do you think I think this is a

20
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: great situation. What an opportunity for these young guys one

21
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 2: all going into a decider and you're in enemy territory.

22
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: I mean, this is a great opportunity to actually win

23
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 2: it in front of Queensland fans.

24
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right. It's the privilege to be able to

25
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 3: say you can actually do this, go out there and

26
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 3: have an opportunity to create some history for themselves. But look,

27
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,679
Speaker 3: that's all been pushed aside. I think for the players themselves.

28
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 3: I understand what that's all about. But building on what

29
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,759
Speaker 3: we did last game in game two is important and

30
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 3: a different proposition been up here, hasn't been done for

31
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 3: a long time, seventeen years or so, so it's a

32
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 3: difficult proposition. But at the same time we're prepared well.

33
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 3: So I'm looking forward to the game, Daddy.

34
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: In terms of tactics, I mean, are we going out hard?

35
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: Do we want to scom Of course you want to

36
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: score early, but do you see a stronger first half

37
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: to really set it up or what do we know

38
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: going forward?

39
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, you definitely got to start. Well, we're just down

40
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 3: and about this morning, and everyone's coming from all parts

41
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 3: of Queensland. You know, they're quietly loving the underdog tag

42
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: and every endo us a little bit about that, and

43
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 3: so we can't fall into that. But at the same time,

44
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 3: I think both teams, probably one of them changed, I

45
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: definitely coins and we're not sure what they'll do. Is

46
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 3: no monster who's going to start at five eight? So

47
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 3: the bit of dust and drags and what's going to

48
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 3: happen there. So I don't know. Their tactics were right

49
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 3: up till till'll probably kick off, I think both. Yeah,

50
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 3: right things there.

51
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 2: You had some legends come back this week. Was it

52
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 2: just Stlough that came back and spoke to the boys

53
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: or anyone else? Dandy?

54
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had Stillo Commune. We had a bit of

55
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 3: bonding up in King Cliff Benny was there any said

56
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 3: Gazz make As And so the boys came in the

57
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,239
Speaker 3: true Blues they all come in, and that the players

58
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 3: love being around them and having a bit of fun

59
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 3: with them. So it's all about the pioneers, I guess

60
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: you can say at times, but these guys in this

61
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 3: modern day are so professional what they're they're about, and

62
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 3: that it's a please have been approvial, has been can

63
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 3: with them.

64
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 2: So Danny, can you just give us the update on

65
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 2: that with COVID because we know Nico Hines as well,

66
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 2: and so Cam Munster's definitely out tonight, isn't he? Is

67
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: he out?

68
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,679
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, he's out on the protocols.

69
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: Anyone anyone else with COVID that that you know about

70
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 2: the boys getting tested every.

71
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 3: Hour or so, what's going on twice today we get tested?

72
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 3: Yeah today, it's a real difficult situation for everyone. You know,

73
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 3: there are sort of protocols in around. But now all

74
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 3: the families are starting to come in now and we

75
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 3: just got to get through these next few hours and

76
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 3: get ready to I think three hours out from the game,

77
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 3: we get one more test the way we go.

78
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: Danny, do you remember back in the day rocking up

79
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 2: to Queensland Territory and what you copped on the bus?

80
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: Can you remember any stories of that?

81
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 3: I was the best. It's just the opportunity to run

82
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 3: out in front of sixty thousand people that just do

83
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 3: not want you to win and do not want to

84
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 3: be there. So it's the the voice. We didn't get

85
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 3: the caston street opportunity. I think the insurance companies were

86
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 3: allowed to do that. We're coming at it, so yeah,

87
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 3: we haven't been able to do that. But at the

88
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 3: same time, you go for a walk around the streets

89
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 3: and you get enough hatred to what it's all about.

90
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: Danny out of the team, who's been given the biggest

91
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: hotel room just I thinking about the after party if

92
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: we do win. Have you called it? They said, guys,

93
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: if we get over the line straight back to mine,

94
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: not yours?

95
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: Is it O game? To the coach when we go

96
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 3: to the Western over there, Fer, that's that's next level.

97
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 3: That's he's got the whole top four. So spend a

98
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 3: bit of time up there. We can get the whole

99
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 3: team up there and have a postmotes and drink. But

100
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 3: you know, I reckon the coach and want to have one. Now.

101
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: It's gets it pretty quiet. We'll get out there hopefully tonight.

102
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 2: Well but buddy, let's just get over the line first, mate,

103
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 2: Good luck Danny and send all our love to Freddie

104
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 2: and the boys.

105
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 3: Jeers thanks to support Guys and Whipper Podcast
