Teams have been named, both Queensland and 7 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 1: New South Wales. 8 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:19,600 Speaker 2: What's our first thoughts, Gordy. 9 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 3: I like the Queensland side obviously, it shows our hand 10 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 3: that we're going to go out there and attack. Having 11 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 3: someone like KP on the bench, I thought we might 12 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 3: have went for like a bigger guy, but it just 13 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 3: proves probably go back to Billy's era, where you know, 14 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:33,840 Speaker 3: we just threw the ball around and moved the big 15 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 3: New South Wales side around. 16 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: You can see there Selwyn Cobbo comes in, so as 17 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 1: Dane gay guy Calen Ponger named on the bench and 18 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: therefore moving Kirk Caprile to the starting back row there. 19 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 4: Buzz very happy with New South Wales side. 20 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 2: I like best. 21 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 5: I like Barnette both in form and I'm also happy 22 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 5: that David Pafita has not been chosen for the Maroons. 23 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 5: Happy about that, I am, because I think it's an 24 00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 5: X fact. 25 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: We'll delve into that a little bit later. Ready, what's 26 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: your thoughts on both teams? 27 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 6: And little surprised Dave's not there. I'm really happy to 28 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 6: see Calen there. I think he has a real X 29 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 6: factor off the bench, and I think Bradmon Bess was 30 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 6: the obvious selection for New South Wales and Barnett's he 31 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 6: strikes we talk about origin players, he strikes me as 32 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 6: an Owegian type of player. 33 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: You get some strong selections in both teams. Let's cross 34 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: to Queens there now, Maruns Cash, Billy Slater is standing by. 35 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us, Billy. A number of force changes 36 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: through injury. Why can this team win the decider? 37 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a bit unfortunate for a few players that 38 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,119 Speaker 7: picked up injuries over the last couple of weeks, Braith, 39 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 7: and you feel for those guys, but we've got a 40 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 7: bit of a luxury of you know, Selwyn Cobbo and 41 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 7: Dane Gagey to bring into the team. So they're really 42 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 7: confident in the players that have been selected and looking 43 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:48,919 Speaker 7: forward to going after it again. 44 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 3: Hey, Billy, it's Gordy. How hard is it to prepare 45 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 3: for game three? Do we look at game one? Do 46 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 3: we look at game two? Is it about New South 47 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 3: Wales or is it just about us? 48 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's important to look at everything, Gordy, 49 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 7: look at what's important to you, the lessons that we 50 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 7: took out of Game two and. 51 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 8: Where we need to improve. So obviously, the standard of footy. 52 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 7: That New South Wales created in Game two was really 53 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 7: high and we probably didn't quite get it right in 54 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 7: that first half. 55 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 8: So you know, the school line. 56 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 7: Showed that and we need to. 57 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 8: Raise our standards in a few areas. 58 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 5: Billy, I've mentioned on the top of the show about 59 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 5: David Braffita not being there. 60 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 4: I want to ask you this respectfully. 61 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 5: Six weeks ago, Ivan Cleary, Trent Robinson and Des Hasler 62 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 5: all wanted him at eight hundred K. What do they 63 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 5: see him that you don't for this series. 64 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 7: Well that's probably a question for them. I don't know 65 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 7: what they see. But you know, Dave's evin in the 66 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 7: conversation for every game. You know, he played all three 67 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 7: games last year and you know started the season a 68 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 7: little bit behind the eight ball with with his peck injury. 69 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 7: He's still trying to get to that standard of footing that. 70 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:03,399 Speaker 8: He created last year. 71 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 7: So look at there are discussions that aren't made lightly 72 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 7: and decisions that aren't made lightly. So certainly been in 73 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 7: the conversation for this Game three. But you can't have everyone, unfortunately, 74 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,399 Speaker 7: and we'd love to have Dave sitting on the bench 75 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 7: as well, But like I said, you can only pick 76 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 7: four guys on the bench, and these are the four 77 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 7: we've gone with. 78 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 6: Hey, Bilib, I know you've got a great relationship with 79 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 6: Caleb Ponger. How excited I to have him back in 80 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 6: the fold? 81 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 4: Yeah? 82 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 7: Ready, Look, this is the first opportunity since twenty twenty 83 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 7: two Game three that Klein has been available. You know, 84 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 7: he's had a bit of a tough run with injury 85 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 7: and whatnot. So look the way he returned yesterday in Canberra. 86 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 7: You know, to have the luxury of bringing him and 87 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 7: injecting him into the game, not too sure where it 88 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 7: could be anywhere from wing to the middle of the field. 89 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 7: So he's such an exciting player and he showed that 90 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 7: yesterday and looking forward to you know, bringing his attributes 91 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 7: into our footy team and he makes us a better 92 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 7: team for sure. 93 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 5: Billy, you've had such a great start as an Origin 94 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 5: coach one two Series two starts. Do you personally feel 95 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 5: pressure that you know, the state's under siege. Now, you know, 96 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 5: everyone so much spotlight on this game, your tactics, your selections. 97 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 5: How do you cope with that? 98 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 8: Well, I agree that there's there's spotlight. 99 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 7: This is a state of origin, it's it's a decider, 100 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 7: it's one all. It's at Uncorp Stadium. You know there's 101 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 7: spotlight on it. I don't know about the state being 102 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 7: under siege. I think that's a bit far. But I 103 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 7: believe pressure mebourne. Yeah, No, I'm fully aware of that. 104 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 7: I'm fully aware that we need to improve our parts. 105 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 8: Of our game. I believe pressure is a privilege. 106 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 7: And you know, if you're in your comfort zone, you're 107 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 7: probably not trying hard enough. So you know, you want 108 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 7: to step out side your comfort zone. You want to 109 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 7: put your hat in the ring, and you want to 110 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 7: do your best for things. 111 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 8: That are important to you. 112 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 7: And you know, that's what what I'm doing, That's what 113 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 7: the twenty players in this group are doing. And you 114 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 7: know we'll we'll try and build our preparation to to 115 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 7: have our best performance next Wednesday night, and you know, 116 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 7: if we can do that, we'll give ourselves a chance. 117 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: Billy. 118 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 3: In Game two, some people say that we got out muscled. 119 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 3: Some people even say that we got bullied. Who's going 120 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 3: to lead this pack in game three? Is there someone 121 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 3: that you're going to tap on the shoulder and say 122 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 3: you've got to be half the beats and chain Webkey 123 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 3: Petro for us tonight. 124 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 2: Yeah. 125 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 7: I think everyone's just got to be themselves, Gordy, And 126 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 7: you know, the one thing I learned from game two 127 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 7: is you know, she's a hard game. She's a lot 128 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 7: harder when you're tired. And you know, when you don't 129 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 7: have that little white ball in the middle of the field, 130 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 7: you get tired really quick. So you know, we need 131 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 7: to find a way to have an even share a 132 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,119 Speaker 7: possession like we we didn't do in the first half. 133 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 7: We need to find a way to be more disciplined. 134 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 7: So you know, the penalty counters and six nil after 135 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 7: thirty minutes, so we need that's all in our control. 136 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 8: And you know, their. 137 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 7: Issues that will be addressing and making sure that we're 138 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 7: a better footy side, you know come Wednesday week. 139 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 6: Hey, Billy, I don't know whether you're aware they've got 140 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 6: their nickers and are not down here about news your 141 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 6: media sessions, not doing open media session on the first 142 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 6: day of origin, which is normally a tradition, right, what's 143 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 6: the thinking there and do you really worry what they 144 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 6: think down here about that? 145 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, the Whispers did venture this far north, but. 146 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 7: To be honest, you know, we didn't have our full 147 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 7: squad together until mid afternoon this afternoon. The Cowboys guys 148 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 7: couldn't get on a flight until midday and they didn't 149 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 7: get down here until about three. 150 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 8: O'clock this afternoon. 151 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 7: They had some commercial arrangements from the QRL.

Why can this team create history? 178 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 11: Yeah, we've spoken about being able to create our own history. 179 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 12: History is one thing, but also creating us another. 180 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 11: And I believe this group's in the mindset about what 181 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 11: they want to achieve, and I think that's the most 182 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 11: important part. 183 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 12: Of what you can do is what we're doing now. 184 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 9: You lobbed the glasshouses sledge before Origin two. Now Billy 185 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 9: Slade has canceled the traditional all in media day for Coinsland. 186 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 10: What do you make of this? 187 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm not quite sure what they're doing, but I 188 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 11: guess for me. So one thing I've really learned around 189 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 11: this space is that this team's about the people, the 190 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 11: people in New South Wales and one thing I've felt 191 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 11: since being here the support that you get from your community, 192 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 11: the fans, your family, That to me is origin is 193 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 11: all about. 194 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 9: Bradman best recalled. But he's had to go for scans. 195 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 9: Will he'd be good to go? Yeah, he's fine. 196 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 11: He had the scan this morning and like every player, 197 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 11: you manage in the early days of the campaign, so 198 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 11: he'll be a little bit altered earlier, but he'll be 199 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 11: up and running as a week is born. 200 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 10: Was Braudman the best player to replace Latrel. 201 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 12: Well left side? 202 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 11: He's been there last year and I think he's one 203 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 11: of the best players on the field in that game, 204 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 11: so it goes to show that he can play at 205 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 11: that highest level. But just the way he's been playing, 206 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 11: I think, especially this last month, he's really found himself 207 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 11: in the way he's playing and I just feel that 208 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 11: he's the right man right now and he'll do a great. 209 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 12: Ual for us. 210 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 9: Jaden Seue has been dropped from the Marine side, Selwyn 211 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 9: Cobbo has been picked, dropped and picked again, Dane Gagi 212 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 9: and Carl and Palmer are back. 213 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 10: What do you make of this coins land something. 214 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 11: Yeah, I've got to say you Coop, So I've probably 215 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 11: been pretty busy this morning, so we'll do our due 216 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 11: diligence around what they're picking. But you know, I've said 217 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 11: all along, it's pretty internal and what we're focused on 218 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 11: and building. What this group's about is something there that 219 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 11: I know they're really enjoying and looking forward to. 220 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 9: They're coming after loam Martin north of the Border. 221 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 10: He's been label to grub. 222 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 9: What will you tell your players about hostility that they're 223 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 9: going to encounter it? 224 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 11: So, yeah, well, I mean that's lambing like he I 225 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 11: think he's played in Grand finals up there at un Court. 226 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 11: He loves playing up there, just like all the players. 227 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 11: You know, it's one of the best stadiums to play it. 228 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 11: You know, you get noise at any stadium that you 229 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 11: play it.

He says he'll play. 329 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 4: Now. 330 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 5: We had Turbo who eased his way back the other 331 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 5: night in Townsville and isn't ready, and we had Matt Burton. 332 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 4: I'm happy for them to go with Bradman best. 333 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 2: But wouldn't you have gone with Burton. 334 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 5: Burton has the most feared weapon in rugby league right now, 335 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 5: keep right? 336 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 4: I think best been there that. 337 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 5: Game three last year one absolutely well, that was a 338 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 5: huge factor in it, right. 339 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 6: He played so well in last year in Game three 340 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 6: of that Origin series, and no doubt Madge that. 341 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 13: Was at the forefront of his mind when he made 342 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 13: this decision. 343 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 6: I think on Saturday, if Tommy had turned up Saturday 344 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 6: night and played really well, I reckon he would. 345 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 13: Have gone with Tommy. 346 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: And I think because Tommy Moses played how his kicking 347 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 3: game was first class. 348 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: But probably if moses kicking game wasn't as spectacular as 349 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: it was, Burton probably comes more into play there. 350 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 2: But they after that kicking. 351 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: Game from Moses, they probably looked for a more special assenter. 352 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: Not that Burton isn't, but he's playing five eight for 353 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: the Dogs. Would we have all just quickly before on 354 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: to the next would we have all gone for Bradmant We. 355 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 2: Would have all picked him. Yeah. Yeah. The feeling towards Tommy. 356 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 6: Maybe if he'd come back and flying on Saturday night, 357 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 6: I would have gone with Tommy. 358 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, what what a queens then? Thinking feeling now 359 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: with one of New South Far's biggest strike weapons, Latrell. 360 00:15:58,760 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: Being ruled out. 361 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: What is that big for Queensland, you think. 362 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's still the New South Wales and just 363 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 3: the way like they win that game without Latrell, like 364 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 3: it's they probably don't win without Moses and Crichton. But Latrell, 365 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 3: he was outstanding. He was first class. But it wasn't 366 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 3: all Latrell in Melbourne. But he's certainly you're just gonna 367 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 3: notice that he's not out there. 368 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 2: I think you do. 369 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 3: But they they've got the closest thing to him. They've 370 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 3: got a big, strong ball carrier, as you said, he's 371 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 3: made five hundred meters in the last couple of weeks. 372 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 3: And Crichton and Best they're going to be a handful 373 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 3: on the edge. There's no doubt they're both big, strong 374 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 3: ball runners. 375 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 5: I think they'll miss, excuse me, Latrell's practice in camp. Yeah, 376 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 5: and Panisi and Madge spoke about it that when he spoke, 377 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 5: they listened, they stopped, they observed, they absorbed, and that's 378 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 5: I think best we'll get the job done. 379 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 6: I reckon Queen's the doing cartwheels that Latroll. Mitchell's not 380 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 6: playing it as good as brav and best is He's 381 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 6: not Latrell Mitchell. 382 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 13: No one's Latrell Mitchell and he would have loved going. 383 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 6: To sun Corp in front of fifty thousand screaming Queensland 384 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 6: and sticking enough the games. 385 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 3: Whe is mental. Yeah, it's not so much physical. They're 386 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 3: all going to get there and then having someone like 387 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 3: Latrell around. I said on the weekend that when Latrell 388 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 3: sits her and pulls on his socks, you know you're 389 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 3: playing with someone special. I believe Gregor Les's had that, 390 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 3: Like there's so many great players I've had that. You 391 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 3: know when you just sit with someone and you know 392 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 3: that you feel safe. Well, someone's going to have to 393 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 3: do game through some corp is mental in more ways 394 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 3: than one, There's no doubt about that. 395 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 2: Now. 396 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: Kaylen Ponga the big one at four Queensland to play 397 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: on the bench after returning for the Newcastle Knights with 398 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: a victory yesterday in Canberra. How do we think they 399 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: plan to play Kaylan and Walsh. 400 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 5: I've seen him come up to the bench. Who's a 401 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 5: lot forward before, almost played fall back. He played wing 402 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 5: where he started at the Cowboys all those years ago. 403 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 5: As a Blues fan, I don't like him on the 404 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 5: side because you know what, when he's right, he is 405 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 5: in the top three players in league alongside make clear 406 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 5: in all those guys, he's a freak player and I'll 407 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 5: worry about it. 408 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 6: I love the Billi's picked him one game back and 409 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 6: it was sort of a mixtay for Kalen. Really good 410 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 6: in patches, made a few Blues, but I love him 411 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 6: in this arena. I love him in Origin and I 412 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 6: love what he can bring against a tied forward pack. 413 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 6: You know he can exploit them. He's got the footwork, 414 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 6: he's got the speed, he's got the talent, he's got 415 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 6: the guy. 416 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 2: You know. 417 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 13: I think he can make a real impact. 418 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 2: On does it MAKENI. 419 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 1: There's a lot of positives to Kalin but doesn't make 420 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 1: Queensland a little vulnerable in terms of size. It does 421 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field, especially because they were 422 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: dominated in game two. He got one lass forward an 423 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: extra smaller body on the bench. 424 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 3: Billy Billy's said that he's got to learn how to 425 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 3: get the foot and if we get equal share, there's 426 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 3: no doubt in New South Wales are powerful. 427 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 2: But there's two sides of the game and when you've 428 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 2: got the ball. 429 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 3: I know if I was defending on the edge and 430 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,199 Speaker 3: on Leam Martin or Crichton and you've got Ponger, you've 431 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 3: got Walsh, you've got Cherry Evans, you've got those guys 432 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 3: coming at you. It's just a different game if you're 433 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 3: at Market and you've got Ben Hunt, so I think 434 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 3: it takes a little bit off you as well. 435 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 2: So there's two parts of the game. But queens they 436 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 2: need the form. 437 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 1: They had combal in game one and that worked, but 438 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: they had thirty on twelve and a majority of possession 439 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: there so it's going to be interesting. 440 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 2: A lot of it, to. 441 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: Me will come down to how the game's referee and 442 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 1: the momentum. Obviously, possession is king because Queensland, with the 443 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: side they've got and after New South Wales played in 444 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: game two, they need the footy. They need to control 445 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 1: the possession and they need to keep the ball in 446 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: play because if New South Wales do that, I think 447 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 1: they'll win. So it puts a bit of pressure on Queensland. 448 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 5: I've loved it too, and we should do it this week. 449 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 5: Look at penalty counts at son Core and how are 450 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 5: you worried already. No, no, I'm not. You weren't worried 451 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 5: in Game two. 452 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 2: You didn't. The rugby league. 453 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 5: World knows in that calldron it is very hard for 454 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 5: a referee w called bias or subconscious yeah, yeah, whatever, 455 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 5: it is, unconscious, bias, whatever, listening. 456 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 4: Can we cut this segment? 457 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 2: It's too late. 458 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 5: What I'm saying is that crowd there can influence a referee, 459 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 5: and I don't care what anyone says. 460 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 6: I agree they've got a NILO start, and you said, well, 461 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 6: I've got a NILO start. They missed the start, and 462 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,439 Speaker 6: that and the crowd gets into the game. It's an 463 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 6: awful mountain of climb. 464 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: I know that you asked Billy the question about bearing 465 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: the media very softly, delicate. I saw how nervous you 466 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 1: were before you executed the question. I've never seen you 467 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 1: prepare for a question so much to someone smell and 468 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: you said you have their nickers in a not down 469 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: here but on triple and the other day you were 470 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: firing barbes?

Little bit, yeah, 502 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 5: a little bit I would suggest he's a million to 503 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 5: one a playing on the weekend against the West Tigers, 504 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 5: which is a hard game for a side that's last 505 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 5: five from six, and I'm. 506 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 6: Tiler doesn't look good for him, So you know, I 507 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 6: think the week this weekend might. 508 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 13: At the least of his problems. 509 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 6: I think he's going to face a stretch on the 510 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 6: sidelines Nico, and it's right luckfy with what he's gone 511 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 6: through the last few weeks. 512 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 13: He's having a hell of a time at the moment. Nico. 513 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 6: I really feel for him because he's one of the 514 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,679 Speaker 6: good fellows in Rugbia League and does a lot of 515 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 6: good work in the community, and he's just I think 516 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 6: things aren't falling his way. 517 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,120 Speaker 1: Tough period for Nico, tough period for the Sharks. Now 518 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: you are number one season ticket hold. 519 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 4: Of bus number one, I'm a season ticket behind. 520 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: But anyway, is there a problem there with the leadership? 521 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 5: Look? 522 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 4: I think there is. 523 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 5: And look, it was a painful column to write today 524 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 5: because I like him so much and no one You 525 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 5: look at their capitulation over the last six weeks. They've 526 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 5: lost five games and before that they're beating the roosters 527 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,400 Speaker 5: agic round. They've been stormed, didn't they in Melbourne? Went 528 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 5: went went near enough? And I when I watched them, 529 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 5: I think that football side is lacking leadership. Nicko is 530 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 5: not the captain, but he's the on field caller and 531 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 5: we all know he's struggling. 532 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 4: I don't have to keep banging on about that. 533 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 2: So who steps up then? 534 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 5: Because that right, that's what I asked, That's what I 535 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 5: had question. Right, isn't playing well either? 536 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 2: Mate? 537 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 4: He played two weeks, three weeks and he got dropped 538 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 4: straight away. 539 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 2: And I think it was he made forty tackles in 540 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 2: the middle. 541 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 5: And yes, okay, I watched them closely every week. There's 542 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,479 Speaker 5: no one stepping up. There's no one stepping up. And 543 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 5: even if dal Fanucan is not necessarily missed on the 544 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 5: football field, he is. 545 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 4: In the locker room. 546 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 2: You know. 547 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 5: He was the he was the spiritual leader of that club. 548 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 5: And that they're playing legal mate. 549 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 4: They got beat by the Titans. 550 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, Titans played pretty good, to be fair of the Titans, 551 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 6: but they weren't great. 552 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 3: The Sharks and fits great fits give the Worries by sixty. 553 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 3: But you got to respect your opponent.
