Now Buzz was named in the team, 5 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,120 Speaker 1: but unfortunately we've had to execute not well, fortunately we've 6 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: had to execute yad eighth man. 7 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 2: Buzz has gone down the walm up. 8 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 3: He's a bit crook. 9 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, look he has break, but he's a big game 10 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 4: player and I'm sure that he'll be back for Thursday's 11 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 4: post Origin rapture. 12 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: He'll be back, So Buzzy if you're watching them, and 13 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 1: we hope you get better. Let's take a look at 14 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: the nominees for our player performance the round, brought to 15 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: you by the TAB and here they are. Jerome Hughes 16 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: three try involvements and continues to impress for the Melbourne 17 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: Storm here and form with his best game of the 18 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: year as was the Titans fantastic with four tr assists. 19 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 1: Sam Walker continues to be great for the Roosters with 20 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: four triassis against the Bulldogs and Lachlan Galvin with that 21 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: big win for the West Tigers over the Raiders in 22 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: his return game was enormous. 23 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 2: Who do you like boys? Out of these four, who 24 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: takes the cake? 25 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 5: It's Fozzy Bear for Mee Kieran forhum, I thought he 26 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 5: was amazing on the weekend and that big win. I 27 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 5: thought he was ridiculously good and the team has struggled 28 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 5: this year and he just looked like a young buck 29 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 5: again outstanding. 30 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 4: Also Sammy Walker, I thought he was kicking game long 31 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 4: and short using the left boot and then little right 32 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 4: foot dinks as well. It was a clinic that he 33 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 4: put on in testing conditions against Cannerbury. 34 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 6: Kieran for him as well. Sixty six points. That's the 35 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 6: biggest one I think in Titan's history. So for an 36 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,199 Speaker 6: old bloke that just keep on turning up and for triassists, 37 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 6: so keep that body together. 38 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 3: Does he say the fossil. 39 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: Good good relationship? Those two let's stick with them. Because 40 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: the Titans were enormous. There's delivers and what about the win. 41 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: It was an absolute carve up and by far their 42 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: best performance of the season. 43 00:01:59,160 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: Are the Titans back? 44 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 4: Well, it's the best win in the history of the 45 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 4: Gold Coast Titans. The way that they are able to 46 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 4: absolutely clinically put a blood bath on against the New 47 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 4: Zealand Warriors. They didn't have a bad player. I love 48 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 4: what Des has done with young keanu' kinney and you 49 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 4: look back at DES's history with fullbacks Ben Barber want 50 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 4: a Dally M under him. He also had Brett Stewart 51 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 4: at the Manly Segulls developed him into one of the 52 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 4: all time champ in fullbacks. It was super impressive from 53 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 4: the Gold Coast. 54 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I don't know if they're back, but 55 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,679 Speaker 5: they're certainly on the up. There's no doubt about that. 56 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 5: And you're right, Hoops. Keanu Kinney was outstanding for HI. 57 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 5: We've got a real headache there, haven't. They've got a 58 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 5: lot of fullbacks of that footy club. 59 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 3: He wasn't the only one. 60 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 5: Fos was great. Ford Plack played really well for Feeder 61 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 5: was great again. I mean, there's some really positive signs 62 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 5: after a tough start of the year. 63 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: Gordy, you're close to the club. 64 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 3: What's changed? 65 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 2: Why were they so good on the weekend? It was 66 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: a big turnaround. 67 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 6: Yeah, well it's been a slow turnaround, but it's been 68 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 6: big in the last sort of month of footy. I 69 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 6: thought they were great about a month ago. When they 70 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 6: pushed size like Melbourne Storm, I thought they'd turned the corner. 71 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 6: Then they went the light card. It was a miserable 72 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 6: day and I was a little bit disappointed, But I 73 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 6: think it's the first time the Titans have got their 74 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 6: defense in order. I think it was seventeen unless mistackles 75 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 6: and they completed over ninety percent. So if you can 76 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 6: do that in any game of footy, you're going to 77 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 6: be a chance. And absolutely yeah, and I think that 78 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 6: they're staying in the grind. They didn't show a lot 79 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 6: of resilience in the last couple of years, so to 80 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 6: go there. So the mistackles were low and their attack's 81 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 6: always been pretty good and I just love the way 82 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 6: Jaden Campbell. It was a great foil too. Like that's 83 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,119 Speaker 6: probably maybe second or third game at number six. 84 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 4: What I found impressive Gordon was they're a little bit 85 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 4: shaky early on, but off the back of that disappointing 86 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 4: loss to the West Tigers, they still just managed to 87 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 4: steady and then once they got going, all of a 88 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 4: sudden they were able to put on an absolute clinic 89 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 4: in terms of the amount of points that they scored, 90 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 4: and days can build enormously off the. 91 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 2: Back of that. 92 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 5: I want to see him back it up though I 93 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 5: it's all I had to do this. You know, on 94 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 5: one off occasion. They haven't really backed up backed up 95 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 5: good performance. There's been no consistency this year with that footy. 96 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 5: And let's be honest, they weren't up against much. 97 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 3: Hang on the opposition. They were just they were diabolical 98 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: on the day. 99 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 4: But if you looked at those two sides on paper, 100 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 4: you tell me how many people were prepared to tip 101 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 4: the Gold Coast type. 102 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 3: Well, I didn't, but I didn't think the Warriors would 103 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 3: be as. 104 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 2: Bad as they were. 105 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 3: Warriors disgust. 106 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 6: You just answered the question what's wrong with the Warriors 107 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 6: that you know that they were the big players? 108 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 2: Aren't horrible the big players? 109 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 6: So what so last year when we were all singing 110 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 6: their praises and it was the Wars and they were 111 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 6: sweeping through rugby league over here and it'll sell our crowds, 112 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 6: I thought Sean Johnson was running the ship. 113 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 2: They were gritty. It was all the things that we 114 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 2: that weren't common with the Warriors. 115 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 6: Like you, normally they go on a run on this momentum, 116 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 6: but the don't win, and just being really tough and 117 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 6: gritty in out grinding sides and building off their defense. 118 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 2: And I haven't I haven't seen the sixty things points. 119 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: There's got to be something more to it, though, ready 120 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: have you heard anything? 121 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 5: Well, there was some there was some whispers going around 122 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 5: that the Adam Ferneur Blake situation had unsettled them a bit. Obviously, 123 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 5: he's going to Cronell next year. I checked on at 124 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 5: the I thought maybe Coronella mon't reach out to try 125 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 5: and get him early. I'm told that, I'm told that 126 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 5: won't happen. Adam wants to stay there finish the season 127 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,799 Speaker 5: or feels like he's got a debt to the Warriors 128 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 5: for letting him leave. 129 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 3: But again, he was poor on the weekend. 130 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: Wouldn't be better for the Warriors to let him go 131 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: at the moment. 132 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 3: Couldn't take him anyway. They haven't got the money. They 133 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 3: have not you can make money though. 134 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 5: Obviously a guy that they said has got permission to 135 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 5: leave at the end of twenty has got. 136 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 3: To get done. 137 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: If we stepped back a bit right, was Magic Ground 138 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: Magic Ground brilliant? And then after that and Adam fanol 139 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: Blake apparently didn't take part in the team, so he 140 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: got dropped the following game. He hasn't been the same since, 141 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: and therefore the form of the Warriors hasn't been so 142 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: it's it's there seems to be an issue there that 143 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: is is a real big problem. 144 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 3: I reckon he's one of those guys who when he's 145 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 3: all in, he's amazing. 146 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 5: But when he's not all in it just do it 147 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 5: doesn't work well within the group, and it feels like 148 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 5: he's not all in at the moment, I know, you know, 149 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 5: speaking of people close to him today, they said, look, 150 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 5: he's committed, as I said, he wants to finish the 151 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 5: season there. He wants to repay a debt to that 152 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 5: footy club. But he's just not playing well. And when 153 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 5: he doesn't play well, they don't play well. You can 154 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 5: talk about Sean Johnson, but of Adam's a man who 155 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 5: gets them going. I mean, Shawn's not playing great either, 156 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 5: but for me, Adams the litmus test for them, and 157 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 5: if he's not playing well, if he's not in the mood, 158 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 5: they're not in the mood. And him, I mean, why 159 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 5: can't they. 160 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 3: Attitude? His attitude could. 161 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 4: Be destabilizing to the group. From what you're suggesting, but 162 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 4: to Gordon's point from earlier, Sean Johnson absolutely blitzed it 163 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 4: last season, but there's no sugarcoating since he's come back 164 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,679 Speaker 4: into the team. Over of course, the last couple of weeks, 165 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 4: they haven't performed and he hasn't been engaging the lawn 166 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 4: dancing in the Valley of death and really taking things 167 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 4: on the way that he was last year. And I 168 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 4: think it's actually nullified to Maury Martin, who was flying 169 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 4: when they had those couple of really good wins prior 170 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 4: to that. 171 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 2: Sure was a very much confidence player. 172 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: He always has been, and he's outstanding, probably no one 173 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: better when he's on the front foot off a quick 174 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: play the ball. His challenge has always been if they 175 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: are off the back foot and not getting those quick 176 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: play the balls, and that's probably what's held them back 177 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: from winning premiership really at certain points over his career, 178 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: and that's the big challenge. 179 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 6: For him and really for the organization moving forward. If 180 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 6: he doesn't want to be there, and if he doesn't 181 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 6: want to pay the price, you can't let it spiral 182 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 6: out of control because bad habits will come into your organization. 183 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 6: And I'll take longer than a preseason to turner back around, 184 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,679 Speaker 6: cut your nose off now and just make a tough decision. 185 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 5: Well, I'm assured that he does want to be there, 186 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 5: and as I said, he wants to finish the season, 187 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 5: but he needs. 188 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 3: To get better. 189 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 2: They all do. 190 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, they were all there was not 191 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 5: a single decent player for the Warriors on the weekend. 192 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 5: Were disgraceful and it's the last thing they need at 193 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 5: the moment because the game is flying over there. You 194 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 5: know that there's a chance they could be the first 195 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 5: team in history to sell out every home game this year. 196 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 3: They're on the verge of that last thing it is 197 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 3: to fall. 198 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: And also they go to Vegas next to you too, 199 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: So we want to. We wanted to go, well know 200 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: because we want not for that reason. 201 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 3: We want to. 202 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 2: We want a number of their fans over. We want 203 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: to be turned. 204 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: Come on, I don't know where he's laughing. 205 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: The Tigers off the bottom of the inner or lad 206 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: After demolishing the Raiders in Campbelltown and after back to 207 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,719 Speaker 1: back wins, many are wondering if Benjie Marshall's men have 208 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: finally turned the corner. 209 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 7: Up for strays skirting across field in a sent What 210 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 7: a crazy start to the game. 211 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 2: Strap yourself in there to you but this could be 212 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 2: a wild ride this afternoon. 213 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 7: They goes down. Galvin has gone over this score, He's 214 00:08:55,280 --> 00:09:01,119 Speaker 7: first try the season with a crossfield Galvin, great start. 215 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 3: Tiger's buller out. 216 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 7: Buller up, floaded one hand. 217 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 2: I'm on a class back to. 218 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 7: Dewey from Topey confidence a part. This is one of 219 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 7: the great Tigers trays. I'm gonna Margo is that it 220 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 7: is that Dewey Beniez three the Rangers trucks adds now. 221 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 7: We stopped the ornament fitness tests and now he runs 222 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 7: away for the Tigers. What a game this is for 223 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 7: West Tigers forty eight the Camper Raiders twenty four. 224 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: That was a turning point thanks to Ashley and Martin 225 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: medical hair centers. Boys, how good it was that Benji's 226 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: babes are on fire in Campbelltown. Lucky Galvin with the 227 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: first try of the game off the back of the 228 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: intercept from Naden on the right hand side, and now 229 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: were firing shots left right in Sena. 230 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 2: It was great to see the Tigers back in some form. 231 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 4: It was shades of two thousand and five when Benji 232 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 4: Marshall and Robbie Farron. All of those gun players went 233 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 4: on and were able to win the Tigers. They're made 234 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 4: in premiership and look it's only early doors. It's back 235 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 4: to back wins at this point. But the most impressive thing, 236 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 4: Breath that you just alluded to there is Benjie's babes. Like, 237 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 4: there's so many of these young kids that they don't 238 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 4: have a hell of a lot of NRL experience, but 239 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 4: they're coming in, they're grabbing the opportunity. Lachland Galvin was 240 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 4: one the young winger on debut, was outstanding, scored a 241 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 4: try out a dummy half early. I thought, samuela finer 242 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 4: in the back row is absolutely shooting the lights out 243 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 4: good and really wanting to make it personal with opposition 244 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 4: forward packs. 245 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 3: Yeah. 246 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 6: Well, the thing with young kids, they don't carry the diffits, 247 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 6: they don't carry the mental scars from losing so many games, 248 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 6: so they can come in. 249 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: With a lot of enthusiasm, but then experience that. I'm down. 250 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 6: I thought the first couple of tries we're basically against 251 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 6: the run er play, but then they settled down and 252 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 6: started playing footy. The Tigers and Adam Dewey what is 253 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 6: it eighteen months he's been out, but you know he 254 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 6: took that intercept from score the runaway try. 255 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 2: So things are looking up for the Tigers. Yeah, now 256 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 2: that was a great performance. 257 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 3: Like like, you're not going to listen. They were really 258 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 3: good the last couple of games. I hate to be 259 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 3: a wowser. 260 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 5: Right, for the next three games, I've got the Roosters, 261 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 5: the Storm, the Sharks, and that's going to give us 262 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 5: an indication of whether they've turned the corner or not. 263 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 5: You know, again, camera were really camera were really poor. 264 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 5: You're going to go lipstick on a pag. Right, They've 265 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 5: won many games this season. What they have I've said, 266 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 5: he's on the They're on the right course, the right path. 267 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 3: I think we see that. But the next three weeks 268 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 3: are huge. 269 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 5: I'd love to see them play really well in the 270 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 5: next three weeks and stand up against the really big teams. 271 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 6: They can only beat who's in front of them. Was 272 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 6: a miserable day. They beat the Titans, and to go 273 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,559 Speaker 6: against the Raiders who were poor. They got to spray 274 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 6: the week before and the Raiders like. 275 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 3: The weekend to I went and tried to listen to 276 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 3: the Beis recruitments doing well to the brothers. 277 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 2: He picked up last year. 278 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 3: Was very good, good on the edge. 279 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: Similarly, absolutely outstanding. 280 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 3: What I've heard something happen in a fight night. 281 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 1: It'sween you and a Tiger's legend and almost turned in 282 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 1: into you and him in the ring. 283 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: Robbie, I was a great Robbie.

Just leave your 291 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 8: glasses on your punch around. 292 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 2: We're the goggles. 293 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 3: I stop saying forty million dollars to like over all 294 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 3: his lipstick. 295 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 2: But he was he seriously upset with you. He was fine. 296 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 3: He didn't clip you in the back of the head. 297 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 5: He was only mucking around around. Robbie a long time 298 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 5: is a good fellow. You're just mucking around. 299 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 2: You talk your one. 300 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 3: Look to be a meeting this week break. 301 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 2: At some point. 302 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 5: I think in the next couple of days, the Tigers 303 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 5: will sit down with him. Rich O and Benji Marshall 304 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 5: sit down with him and those close to him, and 305 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 5: they'll talk about whether he is willing to accept that 306 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 5: deal they put on the table five years, four million 307 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 5: dollars extension. My gut feeling is still the same deal, 308 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 5: increased it at all. Mindstein has haven't increased the deal. 309 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 5: My gut feeling is that Stefan I will want to 310 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 5: go to market see what's out there for him. 311 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 3: And I think the Tigers rather than wait. 312 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 5: Till they're mathematically out of finals contention, which is when 313 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 5: he would would be a free agent, I think the 314 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 5: wise decision, and I think this is the way they're 315 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 5: leaning is they'll say to him, if that's the way 316 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 5: you feel, go and have a look now. But we'll 317 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 5: have a look as well, and there's no guarantee when 318 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 5: you come back the. 319 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: Deal will be there. 320 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 5: And the Tigers already they're already looking at some guys. 321 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 5: I've looked at Nelson and say, for Solomona, is. 322 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: The answer then so if they if they end up missing, 323 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: you take a manor Nelson's. 324 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 4: Then Melbourne tried to swap Nelson, I believe at the 325 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 4: beginning of the season for Stefano, and it did get 326 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 4: off the ground at that stage. 327 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 3: But you're saying it's still a lie now. 328 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 5: I'm understanding is the Tigers are monitoring the situation with him, 329 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 5: but Nelson at the moment doesn't want to leave Melbourne. 330 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 5: He still thinks he can make a difference there and 331 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 5: that's where he wants to be. So I'm not sure 332 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 5: it's progressed any further hoops, but you know, obviously he's 333 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 5: only playing twenty thirty minutes off the bench at the moment. 334 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 6: Nelton just tell Stefano right if he's a fraud and 335 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 6: a front rower. The job in the game never changes 336 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 6: whether you're playing the bottom side or the top side. 337 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 6: I've played with the best of them and you're not 338 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 6: going to run off anybody better than happy chorus ow. 339 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 4: I saw that in that try that he scored yesterday. 340 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 4: We're happy Faine to go to the right and then 341 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 4: comes back. Sorry, Fine to go to the left and 342 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 4: then comes back. That was as good a dummy half 343 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 4: goal as you'll see. 344 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 6: Whether they get mad of the match or don't even 345 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 6: get a mention. They have twenty hit ups, they have 346 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 6: two hundred meters, They do thirty tackles in the middle, 347 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 6: and we either sing their praise or like we don't, 348 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 6: but they do the same job. They do a selfless 349 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 6: job every week. So I don't know whether he's going 350 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 6: to go there and think I'm going to play like 351 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 6: a half back. It's going to be the same job. 352 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 5: I reckon the last two weeks they helped the Tigers 353 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 5: the last two because Stephan I'm really happy he's played 354 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 5: good footy and he's seeing Galvin commit to the club. 355 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 3: All these young kids come through, there's some greens Galvin. 356 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 2: So has he committed to the club? 357 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 5: Well, he has for the extent of his contract breath, 358 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 5: which is two more years. So they basically bought themselves 359 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 5: till November one next year to try and convince him 360 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 5: to take up a long term deal with them. Otherwise 361 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 5: again he'll entered the last year of his deal and 362 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 5: go to market in development. 363 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 4: It was a good development to seem or Maddie john 364 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 4: Show last night and he said, I want to be 365 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 4: a West Tiger. 366 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 3: I want to see success at this club. 367 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 4: I know contractually that he is entitled to go and 368 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 4: have a look as of November one. 369 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 3: But November one next year next year, but I felt as. 370 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 4: What he had to say, it felt as though the 371 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 4: last couple of weeks it's meant something to him and 372 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 4: he can see the fact that the club is starting 373 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 4: to take steps in the rod. 374 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 6: I'm probably playing a full season with Leui like a 375 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 6: you think, playing with someone that could win four Grand 376 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 6: finals in a row, a state of origin and just 377 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 6: get some experience. 378 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 3: And that's that's the big thing. 379 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 5: Gordon planned with Jerown for twelve months, you know, November 380 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 5: one next year he can go to market. So it 381 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 5: gives him a full season with Jerown Leui and that 382 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 5: could be enough to get him over. 383 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: The Tiger's upgrade and extend before that upgrade continue to 384 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: didn't he knock that back? 385 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 2: I think he did. 386 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 4: That was before all the drama blew up. That was 387 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 4: before all the drama blew up. He knocked that game. 388 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 3: If he starts the Dragons on theay, and if. 389 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: He starts the next year with Loui and Louis brings 390 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: it in better out of him, then his price tag 391 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: goes up even more and then he'll be they'll be fighting. 392 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 2: To keep him all right now? 393 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: Is Wayne too timing and is this a problem? Buzz 394 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: the Great Buzz Rothfield. He wrote this today saying that 395 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: I suppose he's finding it hard to believe that Wayne's 396 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: oor is one coaching two teams at the moment, not coaching, coaching, 397 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: but like he's involved with two. 398 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 5: It's a bit disrespectful the Ben horn To be honest, 399 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 5: I think Ben Hornby has done a really good job. 400 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 2: You know. 401 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 3: So Wayne's obviously obviously involved in recruitment there, but he. 402 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 4: Can do He's been talking away, his fingerprints all over it, 403 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 4: that is what. It doesn't matter my view, doesn't It 404 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 4: doesn't matter. Okay, So South's are winning. They've won four 405 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 4: games since Wayne was an answer. We spoke about this 406 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 4: last Wednesday, and then Buzz has gone in today with 407 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 4: the two timing. I don't have a beef with it 408 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 4: at all. A number of the South's players dolphin. 409 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 2: But if I was a Dolphin, I'd be a little 410 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 2: bit worried. 411 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,479 Speaker 6: So a player comes on the market, right that's going 412 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 6: to make the Dolphins better, And Wayne's talking to him, 413 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 6: who does he taking too? 414 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 2: And he's getting paid by who right now? 415 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 3: Right now, he's getting paid by the Dolphins. 416 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,959 Speaker 6: Million dollars to make the Dolphins successful and leave us 417 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 6: and leave the Dolphins in a good position. 418 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 3: But they've always had the Christian Wolf accession plan. 419 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 2: I get it, but Dolphins tragedy. 420 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 6: If I'm a Dolphin tragedy and I'm going and there's 421 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 6: players getting chopped to the Dolphins, go hey, I'm going. 422 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 2: To be caching. 423 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 6: Surely cut Wayne out of isn't isn't there recruitment officer 424 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 6: going to Newcastle? 425 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, I think he's actually already left. 426 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 1: Gets to that a bit later. But this, it is 427 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: very interesting. But I can see both sides. But but 428 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: my thing with this is that you make a great point, 429 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: but the Dolphins are still going really well. Yes they've 430 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: lost for out of four games, but only just and 431 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: they're competing in every performance. They're over again. We said 432 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: last week that they're having a really good season and 433 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like it has directly impacted their play. 434 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: The decision for Wayne to go in my in my opinion, 435 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 2: I don't think it has it all. 436 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 4: But you look at the players that they had out 437 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 4: against the Melbourne Storm on Friday night. 438 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 3: It was an outstanding game there. 439 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 4: Bying into what Wayne is selling in terms of the 440 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 4: game plans and how he wants. 441 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 6: Them to excess, and no one will ever judge Wayne 442 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 6: better on that, But judging on how he's going to 443 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,640 Speaker 6: leave the Dolphins over the next six months. 444 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 2: That's five months. That's the thing. 445 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 4: What I crucially Gordon right, So initially there was talk 446 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 4: Jeremy Marshall King might have been one of his targets 447 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 4: to try and get down to South Sydney. That's since 448 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 4: been put in the bed because the Dolphins have been 449 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 4: able to resign him. He's committed to the club long term. 450 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 2: What about the others that they don't know he's talking to. 451 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 4: I just don't see, well, you and Aken has agreed, 452 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 4: but he was off contract, but he will be joining 453 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 4: South Sydney next season and we have seen that previously. 454 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 2: And he's not the first coach. 455 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 6: To be doing it right because I'm sure other coaches 456 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 6: sit there and talk about what they're doing and they 457 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 6: got there. But when you're getting paid by someone, I'm 458 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 6: just saying, Buzzo is a really good point, and you're 459 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 6: going to work for somebody else and you can't keep 460 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 6: two people happy, all right. 461 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: What about Damien Cooker, He was great for the Bunny, 462 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: He's what about them four wins in a row that 463 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: they've completely turned their season around and they looked like 464 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: we said it last week. But has he been unfairly 465 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: treated Cookie or is it? Are we okay with him 466 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: moving on from the Bunny because again he was he 467 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 1: was fantastic. 468 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 4: Reading Damien's quotes in Buzzer's interview over the weekend, he 469 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 4: was a bit dissupported. He wanted to try and finish 470 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 4: his career at South Sydney, but I think he's mature 471 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 4: enough and enough of a leader in the game to 472 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 4: realize that you don't always get the fairy tale ending. 473 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 4: And the fact that he was offered an additional twelve months, 474 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 4: he feels as though he can continue to play through 475 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 4: until the end of twenty twenty six. 476 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 3: I didn't have a problem with it. 477 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 4: I actually think it's a win win for both clubs 478 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 4: in that the Bunnies for out some salary cap space, 479 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 4: young Peter Mamizula's gets an opportunity, and then the Dragons 480 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 4: gain a senior experienced leader of Cookie's stature. 481 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 1: It's good for Pete Mozilla's you know, he's been sort 482 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: of waiting and waiting, being patient, biding his time. He's 483 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: had Premier ninety Cook ahead of him, and this really 484 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: opens the door for him. 485 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 5: This was always a plan the Cookie would eventually leave 486 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 5: and Peter Membizillas would come through and play hooker and 487 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 5: it's a good resolt for Cook and Cookie. It's another 488 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,880 Speaker 5: year on good money at a club that's on sort 489 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 5: of on the rise, and he can help build them up. 490 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 5: And I think for Peter Mamzila's he gets his opportunity, 491 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 5: he deserves. 492 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: It, he does the big question. Can the Bunnies make 493 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: the finals? I think they can from what I want looking, 494 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm ready for you ready. I think they can. 495 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 2: From what I've seen, they can afford to drop two 496 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 2: more games? 497 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 3: Can they haven't done the mass? 498 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 2: I love what I love what I'm saying, and have 499 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 2: you been doing it? 500 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 3: No? 501 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 6: I think that they're a momentum side right and there's 502 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 6: no doubt that Hala Trell comes back out of origin. 503 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 2: He looks like he's got his major back. 504 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 6: With Cookie leaving, there could be you know, a fair 505 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 6: bit of momentum come their way and the emotions. 506 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 2: Are you going to write them off? 507 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 3: For you? 508 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 4: Gordy asked for earlier, so I got someone to go 509 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 4: in the Fox Sports Ladder and get the advocacy out 510 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 4: and crount the numbers. I think they've got to win 511 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 4: eight out of their last ten games, yeah, which is 512 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 4: a monumental assignment. But the way that they are playing 513 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 4: at the moment on with you boys, I think there's 514 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 4: absolutely there is. 515 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: Okay, I just look at the pretty warning to see 516 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: house fans. 517 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 3: Now it's really I think they've got no chance to 518 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 3: be honest, I love La Troll. 519 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 2: You're the green Green. 520 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 3: That's a bit much. 521 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 5: Really can't please eight tens too much, the mountains too 522 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,719 Speaker 5: high a climb. I think they'll finish the season really strongly. 523 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 5: But that's great, great oak. 524 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you can lose nine in a row, but 525 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,479 Speaker 2: you can't win eight. Not not when you lose. 526 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:24,479 Speaker 3: They don't think they can win out. 527 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 5: I'll tell you what if they went out of ten, 528 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,239 Speaker 5: PATROLLI win the delim because they'll have to bring him 529 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 5: in and they'll have to win men, the match. 530 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 2: And every one of those. And you're saying he's not 531 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 2: good enough to do that. 532 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 3: I'm saying you probably could, Gord. 533 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 2: But we're talking around on the fans. 534 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: Remember these Tigers fans, all right, what about the what 535 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: about the game? Like see how solid you know Jack 536 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 1: White and he's doing a great job. But the mainly 537 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 1: Seagulls were horrific like their attack was diabolical. 538 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:01,159 Speaker 2: It has to be said. They did. 539 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: I think they looked like scoring once and they stuff 540 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: to pass up, but they just kept going sideways from 541 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: block plays. 542 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,360 Speaker 3: They were just not direct, They weren't threatening. 543 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: They didn't change the game like, they didn't look at 544 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: what was in front of them and then evolve or 545 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: try and create different scenarios or situations. 546 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 3: What's going on there? Well, I had concerns. When did 547 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 3: Carlton get named at halfback? Yeah? 548 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 4: So when I saw that, I thought you got Luke 549 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 4: Brooks in the side. He's played halfback for the majority 550 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 4: of his career. I don't know what you wouldn't just 551 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 4: make him the number one playmaker. They've also got a 552 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 4: young gun in their setup called Jamie Humphreys. I'm surprised so. 553 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 3: He didn't get to go. 554 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 4: Look, there's some heat going on Manly now because what 555 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 4: is it? Have they won one out of their last 556 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 4: five games? I think it is it hasn't been a 557 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 4: great record in recent times after a really positive start. 558 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 4: So I think that there will be some hard questions 559 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 4: asked of Anthony Seubold. And we know that he's had 560 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 4: that blow up with the CEO Tony Mestrovo of the club. 561 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 4: He wanted an extension going back a couple of months. 562 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 4: The CEO said, no, you're not getting that at this 563 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 4: point in time. So I'm starting to see a little 564 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 4: bit of picture there and they can't get Tommy back 565 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 4: quick enough. 566 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 3: I think he's back after. 567 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: The back the finals. The Sea Bowl gone well. 568 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 4: I mean they finished twelfth last year and then you 569 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 4: don't make the finals. 570 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 3: It's hardly it's hardly a good it's hardly. I think 571 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 3: he's gone. 572 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 5: But I think he's on a pretty immense pressure to 573 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 5: start next season because again there's been some extenuating circumstances 574 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 5: this year. 575 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 3: They've lost Tommy for a. 576 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 2: Long period of time. Everybody loses it. 577 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 3: I understand that, Cordy, but Tommy has been a really 578 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 3: important player for them for a hell of a long 579 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 3: time without. 580 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: I always agree with when Tommy's out because it watching 581 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: that game on the weekend, no matter who was in, 582 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: who was had latreill out and heaps of players. 583 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 3: It was a really poor but it was to watch 584 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 3: an awful game to watch. 585 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 2: The conditions were good. 586 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 6: But you take a leaf out of Melbourne' book, no 587 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 6: matter who turns up and you look at Penrith, right 588 00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 6: they can have clear out, they can have guys out 589 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 6: and they just go and they get gritty and they 590 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 6: get tough and they get w's. 591 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 2: And you look at Melbourne. 592 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 6: They've lost more players, They've lost Papanez and like the 593 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 6: players that they've lost, Cameron Munster, and they still. 594 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 3: Get They're still on top of the competition. 595 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 5: And that's why, you know, it seems if they don't 596 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 5: make the Eate this year, seems will be under immense 597 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 5: pressures start next year. 598 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: Who would have thought that the Eels are at the 599 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: bottom of the ladder they are currently sitting last I 600 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: didn't really realize when they were sitting until I looked 601 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: at it before the games or just before the Sunday 602 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: game yesterday. 603 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 4: Thoughts on this well off the back of the Tigers 604 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 4: winning a couple of games and the Gold Coast chalking 605 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 4: up sixty points against the Warriors, that leaves the Eels 606 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 4: vulnerable due to their differential in seventeenth position. I think 607 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 4: the on field performance is a reflection of the instability 608 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 4: at the club. Off the field, we've been critical or 609 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 4: the process that they've run. I don't like the way 610 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 4: that they handle Brad Arthur's acting at all. I think 611 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 4: they could have come up with some far better solutions 612 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 4: and forward planning rather than just being reactive the way 613 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 4: that they were on how they were trying to treat 614 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 4: Brad with as much respect as possible. But that's not 615 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 4: how it's played out. And now they run a last ready, 616 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 4: so all right, stand up from here. The bank has 617 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 4: been we haven't mentioned the banker in the county yet. 618 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 7: Mate. 619 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 5: This's got nothing nothing to do with the way they've 620 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 5: handled the coaching situation. 621 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 4: Nothing one field results have got nothing to do with 622 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 4: the fact that they've got to do with the instability 623 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 4: for the feld. 624 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 5: That's why the coach changed, because they weren't getting results 625 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 5: on the field, but the way they've handled the process. 626 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 3: Results got worse. They're now on the bottom. But Trent 627 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 3: was there when they were struggling. Trent said, coach, Now, 628 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 3: so did you expect you're blaming? Did you expect around 629 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 3: its now transfold? 630 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 2: Is it? 631 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 5: Well, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying what they 632 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 5: were struggling prior to brag going. Nothing's changed the terms 633 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 5: of the coaching. 634 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 2: Can we put some listick on and. 635 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 3: I'm sure at some point. 636 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 5: Things will change when they get Mitch back, when Miss 637 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 5: starts playing with the coach when Mitch was in injured. 638 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 5: That's the point, right.
