1 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:03,240 Speaker 1: Will it keeps good to be back. 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 2: Where where'd you go when it's completing tour over to 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 2: the warehouse? Yeah, yes, you're running for the prime minister. 4 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:17,480 Speaker 1: No, I'll tell you what what it's an amazing event. 5 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: It was UC one of the event. Like I think 6 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 1: sport can learn from the UFC and that big event. 7 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: It was just the promotion, the marketing, the excitement, everything 8 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,159 Speaker 1: around it. I reckon if you think I reckon the 9 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: sports history, the best sport and the best sporting organization 10 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: as far as marketing themselves has been. It's going to 11 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: send him suit. 12 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 3: The WWE, you took a leaf out of it because 13 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 3: you'll be around that backstage hat everywhere you went. 14 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 1: Self promotion. But you look at like the UFC. I'm 15 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: sorry the w W. I mean, this is a sport. 16 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: You wouldn't believe it. It's fake, but it's just got 17 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: this massive worldwide following. It's just it's just to show. 18 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: And it's the UFC. They've taken the accues off that. 19 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: I think if there's things that we can learn. I've 20 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: always been critical Grand Final week in Sydney. You wouldn't 21 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: know it's to a certain extent, you wouldn't know it's 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: on little fan zones. 23 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, more sort of throw at it to make it 24 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 2: definitely well. 25 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 1: I think I think the way how good the sport 26 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: is going at the moment, the NRL and just everything's 27 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: going on, we deserve a big Grand final week, a 28 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: tat a Grand final week, So I wouldn't surprise you 29 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: if they're a part of it. With Titans, why not 30 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. 31 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, mat I agree. 32 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: Last six games, last six games, they have averaged thirty 33 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: eight points considered fifteen, so thirty eight fifteen everyge score, 34 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: seven tries per game, eight line breaks per game, just 35 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: on the up and up. 36 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 3: If there is a team's attack that can break down 37 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 3: the best defensive team in Penrith, because let's be fair, 38 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 3: if you want to win this competition, you have to 39 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 3: beat Penrith at some stage. 40 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: They do have it. 41 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 3: They have this attack that can literally tear you apart 42 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: in quick succession. But the one thing that they are 43 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 3: set up, they are well balanced. 44 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 2: They're a good team. 45 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 3: We will look at some of their individual brands, but 46 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 3: are they the team that lacks enough like real game, 47 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 3: genuine experience to win a compo over someone that's been 48 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 3: there four times like Penrith, h fly Kfusi is the 49 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 3: only one that's really truly done it number of times. 50 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 3: I hope I'm wrong here because I don't believe in 51 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 3: this theory that you have to lose one to win one. 52 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 3: But do they have enough experience to walk into Penrith 53 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 3: in a prelim final or a grand final and get 54 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 3: a ten out of ten perform? 55 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 1: Let's have their best squad right, all their best twenty 56 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: players right if they were to play, it's a very 57 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: impressive group. And as you said, look and the other 58 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: thing about they've got money in their Captistino side food 59 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: has been mentally retired. 60 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: There I'll tell you what they've got. 61 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: Cooper Isaiah Atowa is a lot older than his pertificates, 62 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: see one like he's just a really the way he 63 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: conducts himself. 64 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 2: One day he'll be the smartest player in the colm. 65 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: No doubt, no doubt He's in the Greend final now 66 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: is yeah, then you have a flaglet you've got you know, 67 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: you've got Hammer, you got farn Worth who've got a 68 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: great experience, as you said, but even guys like Plath 69 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: and that who have now tasted state of origin. You know, 70 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: I mean the improvement in those guys and even look 71 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: I look at Kurt Donny who there right number fourteen. 72 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: Kurts only a very young guy, but again he like 73 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: he's smarts, his toughness, the way he can he ball 74 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: plays almost like a veteran. 75 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 3: A good team needs to compliment one another, right, So 76 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 3: they've got young, exciting, athletic outside backs, really smart halves, 77 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 3: a good balance between X factor and toughness. Like, yes, 78 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 3: we will highlight all the great players in terms of 79 00:03:54,920 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 3: scoring ability, but what underpins that is Noles, Gilbert Stone, Flag. 80 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 3: But you cannot beat Penrith on the day unless you 81 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 3: take down Moses Lioda. Yes you can fight fire with 82 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: Nathan Cleary and Edwards. That someone needs to go after 83 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 3: Leoda and that forward pack. And they are well balanced, 84 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 3: but can they deliver on a big game and all 85 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 3: of it work at once. 86 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: Let's talk about some of their players and the one 87 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: we've spoken to me for a couple of years now 88 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: and he just he's been fancy is Isaiah can Teller. 89 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: He had a underwhelming Ciity Championships in the last year 90 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: and in some ways I thought this at the start 91 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 1: of the year at a slow start to the season. 92 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: In turn, so did the Dolphins. But certainly in the 93 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: last couple of months he's picked up. 94 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 3: The reason why I think he had a slow start. 95 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 3: He was bamboozling teams last year, and I think now 96 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 3: teams defend Isaiah tell not in the same defensive shape. 97 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 2: What I mean by that. 98 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: Is sometimes he'll get rushed, sometimes they'll be passive, and 99 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 3: when he's going to the line. In the first third 100 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 3: of the season, he was unsure of what to do 101 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 3: that through his timing out. Now he's starting to manipulate 102 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 3: again where he knows to go to. So for example, 103 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 3: if a team rushes outside and like that, for example 104 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 3: from there from the Cowboys, he'll go back ten minutes 105 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 3: later and throw. 106 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 2: The pass over the top. 107 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 3: Yeah he's smart enough to know, Okay, they got me 108 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 3: that time, but this time, I'm going to throw the 109 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 3: ball over the top. Whereas the first third of the 110 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 3: season he was struggling to react to that because he 111 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 3: actually didn't know when he had the ball in and 112 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 3: what they were going to do. 113 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: And the strength of the system too. Coop, like, we'll 114 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: just take a little step back there. He wasn't there 115 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: On the weekend neither was all their origin stars. They 116 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: traveled to Campbelltown, very very hard place to win against 117 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: the side the Tigers, which was a really important game 118 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: for them, and they knock them over. So it's the 119 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: strength of the system. Let's move to Donna Hue now, 120 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 1: Kurt Donna Whoe. And I love this Blager as a player, 121 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 1: young player who I said before, He plays like a 122 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: real clever veteran. The way he conducts himself, old school 123 00:05:55,120 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: skill and toughness, Like this is what I think about him. 124 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: Is to Cleary or Donna, who is to isaiac Otawa. 125 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 3: They are the new one and then maybe we're still 126 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 3: talking about them now, but in a year or two 127 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 3: times we're talking about them maybe as the dominant combination. 128 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 3: He's got a he grew up as a half, right, 129 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 3: so he's got natural intelligence of how but now that 130 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 3: this ballplane thirteen has come into play, he knows when 131 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 3: to skip a defender, he knows when to square up 132 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 3: and defender, and it's it's just what a new ballplane 133 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 3: thirteen has to do, Like he understands what to do 134 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 3: when to do it. But he's also big enough to 135 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 3: take a carry. That's one thing that that ballplane. Middle 136 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 3: needs to do is when to run, when to pass, 137 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 3: and if you're going to run, you still need to 138 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 3: be able to create momentum. 139 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 2: You just can't get smashed. 140 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: The most impressive thing about him was born in Newcastle. 141 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 2: Good ones that come out of there, that's in Queensland. 142 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: Moose places are apparently max Plath. 143 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 2: It's definitely a Queensland where he is from Max Plath. 144 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: And what Origin takes players who are good players in 145 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: terms of into genuine and stars. God, he's at an 146 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: Origin series so far. 147 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 3: He's a tackling machine, tough, uncompromising, he's got versatility, can 148 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 3: play nine and thirteen. One thing that goes on a 149 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 3: little bit under estimated he is. 150 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: In these Origin games. 151 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 3: He's come up with two significant passes that are contributed 152 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 3: to two tries. That one there for Lierra that ability 153 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 3: to catch and pass, and the other one was for 154 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 3: Monster's kicked for Cobbo. Ball goes up, toy catches it. 155 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 3: If he threw the ball in the first moment, it 156 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 3: gets stopped. But he threw this sort of call it 157 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 3: speculator but very controlled over the top and got the 158 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 3: ball the monster like this kid's got skilled to go 159 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 3: with these. 160 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: Tough, good instincts. That's just raw instincts. So and Cobbo, 161 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: let's look at all these touches from State of Origin. 162 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: This is one of the stories of the State of 163 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: Origin series. 164 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 2: So let's not forget six. 165 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: Months ago his career was on the brink, wasn't it. 166 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: People left the Broncos, they pretty much allowed him to go. 167 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: He went to the. 168 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: Dolphins, made his performance the other night. You know, Fedi 169 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: just the finest performed of his career and I just 170 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: look in hats off to Billy Slater. Whatever role he's 171 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: given him, however he's motivating him, has just been remarkable. 172 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 3: I think Christian Wolf deserves a big right for it too, 173 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 3: because he's the guy that has sort of mentored him 174 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 3: at club Land. Billy Slater and Jonathan Thurston have sprinkled 175 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 3: a little bit of magic dust on Selwyn. He's performance 176 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 3: the other night. Sam walk was Player of the Match, 177 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 3: but he was literally he could have easily got it. 178 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 3: And one is in the conversation for Player of the 179 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 3: series the way that he's been playing. But one thing 180 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 3: that Selwyn's sort of missed at different stages. He's had 181 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 3: some good performances that he has sort of an average one. 182 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 3: His backfield carries are as powerful as anyone on the field, 183 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 3: like it's Brighton to or Esk. He's charging into players 184 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 3: and skittling them. But then he's also got this finishing 185 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 3: ability to get the ball down in some really difficult spots. 186 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 2: So he's doing at both ends of the field. 187 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: And hammer the last week. Just a phenomenal athlete, phenomenal player. 188 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: But the other thing about him, whenever Queensland during State 189 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 1: of Origin could really need something in a game, so 190 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 1: often he's the bloke that does it, just does something 191 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: you're completely out of nowhere long range tries. 192 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 3: When he plays fullback, he's the best finisher in the game, 193 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 3: like he anticipates an opportunity just when there's a support needed. 194 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 3: He's the one that turns up inside the kick in 195 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 3: the finesse at different stages to set up someone else. 196 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 3: The other thing I really like about Hamma is he 197 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 3: hasn't been found out defensively. There's one question where you 198 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 3: go from fullback to the centers in the Origin arena 199 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 3: coming up against Stephen Krichton or a Catoni Stags that 200 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 3: maybe he doesn't have the awareness or all the toughness 201 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 3: to hold onto a tackle, but he hasn't been found 202 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 3: out defensively like he is. He's got a Queensland jersey 203 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 3: for as long as he wants. 204 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 2: It at the moment. 205 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: And we haven't spoken about Jack Bosstok, who's one of 206 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: the most improved players in the cop and we haven't 207 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: spent he will play Origin Jack and Herbie Farnworth, who 208 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: there's an argument for the best center in the game. 209 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: All those things. The next month thinks the Knights, the 210 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: Sharks and the Cowboys. 211 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. 212 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: At the end, they're the second line of betting at 213 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: the moment, at the end of this that month before 214 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: they go into the boy they might be a lot 215 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: closer to than we think. 216 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 3: Seven wins in a row and the other thing that 217 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 3: I like about them, like Penrith has done in their 218 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 3: Premiership years, when their Origin players are out, the next Cropper. 219 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 2: Players stand up and take a victory. 220 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 3: The other team that I thought was super impressive on 221 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 3: the weekend with the Titans. That's they struggled for a 222 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,959 Speaker 3: bit of consistency in the early part of the year, 223 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 3: but their last three weeks big win over the Broncos. 224 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 3: You had the moment Kana Kidney and what Zaane Harrison 225 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 3: delivered on the weekend, I think the Titans have found 226 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 3: their spine. I think with Kinney, Campbell and Zaye doing 227 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: what he's doing. 228 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: The one thing I really like. 229 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 3: Zay is a six game halfback, but he's doing things 230 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 3: that it takes a. 231 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 2: Long time to understand. 232 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 3: He set up a try for Philip's Army where he 233 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 3: played nice and straight and direct and the back role 234 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 3: played an inside pass for Campbell. Look what he does here, 235 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 3: doesn't sit back and go to the open side to 236 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 3: set a field position, rips down the short side and 237 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 3: just throws a cutout past for Sami. This sets up 238 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 3: a try and then moments later he's got the field goal. 239 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 3: Like he didn't hesitate like Jamal Fogy missed an opportunity 240 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 3: to kick a field goal on the weekend. He hesitated slightly. 241 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 3: This young kid. Because you're part of the recruitment committee that. 242 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: The Buttons have found the half back like this kid. 243 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 3: Well, it has delivered in his six I'm not saying 244 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 3: that he's going to be a gun for a long time, 245 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 3: but in the six games we've seen, there is enough 246 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 3: to say that Josh Hannah has a half bait. 247 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: They should investing Blake who deserves huge credit for Zay 248 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: and guy called Brad Davis. 249 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 2: Brad, where's creek boy? 250 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: I think? 251 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 2: But he ended up. 252 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: He came through his a very good schoolboy footballer, played 253 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: for the Titans in two thousand and eight and never 254 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: reached the potentially thought he was going to do. 255 00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: But he's doing. He's done. 256 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: He's worked with Zaane more than anyone, so he deserves 257 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: a lot of credit. 258 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 3: You told me before that no decision in terms of 259 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 3: recruitment goes past without your affirmation. 260 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 2: Mate. 261 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: They ring me and say what do you think? Then 262 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: they go completely the other way. Likely so Kiano Kinney. Look, 263 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 1: we've spoken a couple of times about this his last 264 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: five or six weeks, Cooper. The only thing that match 265 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: is he's brilliant and skill and billy to do things. 266 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 1: I know is his toughness. 267 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 2: Just that six minute spell against the Tigers. 268 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,439 Speaker 3: Now I know they lost it, like, but he set 269 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 3: up three tries to get them back in the game. 270 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 3: Like he has just done things like this thing against 271 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 3: rees Foals the other week, mach Winner, like you just whatever, 272 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 3: he basically this is probably not good for you in 273 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 3: the retention committee. But whatever he wants price wise, you 274 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 3: cannot let keianu' kinney go. And he's fought hard for 275 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 3: it because there was an argument that Campbell or Brimston 276 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 3: was going to be the fullback to get out of 277 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 3: serious injury that you had to get through last year. 278 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 2: There is like he's a star. 279 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 3: He is. 280 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 2: He is a genuine star. 281 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: And real well balanced kid too. Monster, you're fifty two 282 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty games. Yeah, I know life accelerates as 283 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: you get older, but that's gone quick. 284 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 3: Plaid well too, Like Monster's got this larryic and rough 285 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 3: around the edges, and he plays up to it a 286 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 3: little bit, like he likes to make a joke about things. 287 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 3: But Jeezy cares about his team, Jez cares about Queensland, 288 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 3: Jez cares about the Storm. And when he gets that 289 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 3: balance between being free flowing and the emotion that's connected 290 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 3: to the jersey, like Game two last year when he 291 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 3: lost his father like that that that takes huge Khounas 292 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 3: to be able to do what he did captain for 293 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 3: the first time an emotional week. Monster is a very 294 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 3: good player two fifty the Melbourne Storm. He deserves to 295 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 3: be in the conversation after maybe there for another couple 296 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: of years and gets a three hundred, But he could 297 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 3: easily have contributed to that club. 298 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 2: Are equally along Smith and Slowes. 299 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: In front of the Weekend there was a lot of 300 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: sign and purely through affection mad dog Munster, and I thought, 301 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: it's not really it's not him anymore, you know what 302 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: I mean? Like you know, he has certainly turned his 303 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: life around, family man. Now he's a leader at that club. 304 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, Coop. 305 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: He came in twenty sixteen and when Billy had his 306 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: shoulder coming in twenty sixteen, played fullback. When Billy returned 307 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen, he was forced to make the transition 308 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: from one to six, which is. 309 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 2: Very difficult to do. 310 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: Darren Locke, it took probably eighty nths to be able 311 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: to do it, probably get his head around that sort 312 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: of playmaking. But he just seamlessly went into it. I mean, 313 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: you're his half back. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe took more 314 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: time than I think. 315 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 3: No, No, I think he's carefree approach, but the actual 316 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 3: I really do care like he gets that balance right. 317 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 3: If you're going to transition to a position that's a 318 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 3: bit foreign, like you need to have confidence and when 319 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 3: you make an area, you can't really take two steps back, 320 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 3: which you need to keep improving. And he's done that now. 321 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 3: Like I think, you know, one of the things that 322 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 3: monster has done he's evolved over his time now is 323 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 3: the leader of Queensland. He leads in Melbourne Storm with 324 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 3: Harry Grant and I think what he's delivered to that 325 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 3: Melbourne Storm, he'll be a legend once his time's done. 326 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely legend. 327 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: Dogs a third and twelve over manly they got the 328 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: result mainly had their opportunities tough loss, he'd have been 329 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: really disappointed. Karen for and interesting they rejigged the spine 330 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: against Stephen Crichton. The six Burton went to the centers. 331 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: I think it's sort of they simplify their game to 332 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: think I liked about their game and it was. It 333 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: wasn't a beautiful win, but it was a dog's win, 334 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: you know that traditional tough dogs. 335 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 2: Do you like that? Do you like the Burton Crichton swap. 336 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: For the short term? I certainly don't see it a 337 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: long term. I'd be surprised if he's still there in 338 00:15:59,240 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: a month. 339 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 3: Stock Brighton's a better center that he is five eight 340 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 3: and Burton's a better five eight than he is center. 341 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 2: Yes, naturally, when you do that, you. 342 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: Think, okay, I think it just allowed him coop. What 343 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: I like to bet their game coops is what they've 344 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 1: sort of given up trying to prove to people. The 345 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: Galvin thing, you know what I mean. I think they 346 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: returned to what got him to the top of the 347 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: hill last year for a while, and that was an 348 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: attitude of high completions, focus on defense. 349 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 3: There's a couple of things that has helped the Dogs attack. 350 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 3: I think Salmon's not in the ball playing position anymore. 351 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 3: He's playing on the edge. There seems to be and 352 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 3: this is why I think the change happened. Connor, Tracy, Hayward, 353 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 3: Burton and Galvin. There's not a true genuine communicator, so 354 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 3: I feel like sometimes they might get a little bit lost. 355 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 3: Who's their best talker, Crichton. Yeah, move him close to 356 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 3: the ball for a couple of weeks, just to get 357 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 3: people in the right position. 358 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 2: Because yes they won. 359 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 3: Yes, Crichton's a star, but there was a couple of 360 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 3: passes that Burton would have iced better. There's definitely a 361 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 3: couple of kicks that Burton would have ice better. So 362 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 3: I'm with you. I'd be very surprised if they get 363 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 3: to the back end of the year and Crimet's played 364 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 3: half the games. 365 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: A bit of talk ground around that they might move 366 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,239 Speaker 1: and people say that they should put into fullback. I 367 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: don't see that working. I just don't think the way 368 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 1: the full back. And there's a reason that the fullback 369 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: position has evolved to that sort of fast, rapid fire 370 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: guy given the real changes in the space. He's long 371 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: striding sort of player. I just and the other thing 372 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: is the importance of his defensive responsibilities. I just don't 373 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: see everything points to fullback should work for him. I 374 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: don't think it would. 375 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 3: I think the spine or an extension of the coach 376 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 3: when it comes to the attacking system, right, they get 377 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 3: the game plan and they call it and execute it. 378 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 2: Fear like. Crichton is probably their best talker in communicator. 379 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 3: They've just moved him close to the ball to make 380 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 3: sure that all those things that have been practicing jury 381 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: gets on. 382 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 2: Best state of origin. Now a decider. 383 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: The power Breakers would love this and decider up to 384 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: sun Corpse Stadium. Whi's always really, really special. We're going 385 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 1: to talk about game two A lot's been said about that. 386 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: We're sort of unning out of time. Let's focus on 387 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: game three. Let's talk about changes. We've got some, really, 388 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: Laurie's got some really big decisions to make. First of 389 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 1: with you guys, Tommy Didn't ninety sure he's going to 390 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: be available? 391 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 2: Where does he. 392 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 3: If he plays this weekend? You know, Rees Walsh was 393 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 3: on the bench yep, and he probably is the true 394 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 3: cover for a half yep. So if Didnt comes back 395 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 3: and plays, well, he probably gets on it. You're not moving, 396 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 3: Sam walk You're not moving Monster did. He might get 397 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 3: a spot on the bench. But I feel like without 398 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 3: the game having been played yet before Origin, it's pretty settled. 399 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 2: Like I don't think there's too much going on. I 400 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 2: want to hear what your New South Wales. 401 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: So sorry, when you say settled, you don't think he 402 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 1: comes in like yeah, right on Walker's half. Look, I'm 403 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: not saying into the starting lineup. I'm talking about coming 404 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: on to. 405 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 2: It might be on the betch. Yeah, yeah, you're not changing, 406 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 2: Sam Walker. Did. It probably comes on the bench where 407 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 2: the position that Reese Walsh. 408 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: Had in certainly certainly okay, big one New South Wales, 409 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: some really big decisions look coops and it's easy. Well 410 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 1: for me, I think it's pretty straightforward. What needs to 411 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: happen to beat Queensland in Queensland in the decider is 412 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: that I think it's always dangerous picking a team in 413 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: state of origin on form, if that makes sense, because 414 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: be course, if you're picking on club form, state of 415 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: origin is just a different standard of football. 416 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 2: I reckon where you're going. Form goes out the windows. 417 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 3: Who can win an Origin match at Sunkle Because let's 418 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 3: be fair, if New South Wales win, it'll be one. 419 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 2: Of their greatest victories. And who can do that. You 420 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 2: go through your teams. 421 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: You pick on presents, you pick on big game experience, 422 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 1: you pick winners. 423 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 2: Stephen Crichton is in. 424 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 1: It hasn't been his greatest year, but he goes in 425 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: Liam mart Liam Martin, Leam Martin definitely goes in Tom 426 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: Travoyevitch goes in Abby Chorus, How goes into nine. But 427 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: those play those players go in and you find a 428 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: spot for him because blokes like that, they can elevate themselves. 429 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 1: And as I said, presence is so important. Is that 430 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: you know if I'm in the dressing room and I 431 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: said this on the show last night. If I'm in 432 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: the dressing room and I'm a player and I'm getting 433 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: ready and I look over and I see Tom Travoyevitch, 434 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: I just just it elevates me. And you put great 435 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: players all together and they elevate each other. 436 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 2: And these players. 437 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: When you get champion players and you tell a champion player, 438 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: there's the challenge, and there's a challenge that people don't 439 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 1: think you can you can make and achieve. Guess what 440 00:20:58,560 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: they do it. 441 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 2: I got another one where Laurie Daily is off contract. 442 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 2: It may go around or not. 443 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 3: He is in the conversation for New South Wales' greatest 444 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 3: ever people, I mean, player coach, what he's contributed to 445 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 3: that blue jersey he's in the on the podium. 446 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: Fact I have as far as our greatest players I have. 447 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 1: I've got Joey thinking quick here, I've got him on 448 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: the top five, Joey Blokes, Freddy, Lori Daily N's there. 449 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 3: He is there, Laurie's there right and if he is 450 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 3: going on or not. And this isn't about making about Laurie. 451 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 3: But if Laurie said, you know what, we're gonna lose, 452 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 3: I'm walking away from this series One thing I think 453 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 3: would happen is that the former New south Wales players 454 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 3: that are in the media are going to get behind 455 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 3: him because this is his last dance. I think that 456 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 3: puts influence on the players to stand up for one 457 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 3: of their greatest ever players. 458 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 2: If you're going to. 459 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 3: Win Game three at sun Corp, this is going to 460 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 3: go to and is one of New south Wales's greatest 461 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 3: over victories. Considering what happened in Grain two to what 462 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 3: potentially could happen, I think it's get those players involved. 463 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 3: I like Martin because you know what, He's going to 464 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 3: walk into sun Corp and annoy the hell out of 465 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 3: Monster and not take a backward step for eighty minutes. 466 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 3: Turbo can do it. There's just a lot of things 467 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 3: I think. This isn't about who's inform or who does 468 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 3: the fundamentals or whatever. This is about who can win 469 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 3: for New south Wales in one of the biggest occasions 470 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 3: in Origin history. 471 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: People haven't met Lory Daily and anyone who has many 472 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: will agree there is not a better person in Ragular 473 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 1: League than Lorry Daily, and I think sometimes to make 474 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: these tough decisions just very difficult for Laurie because it 475 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: goes against who he is, like, he's very empathetic person. 476 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: Some coaches pretend to care about their players. Laurie genuinely 477 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: cares about people. He's one of those guys. My advice 478 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: to Laurie would be send Lory Daily that person on 479 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: holiday for two weeks and just take a leaf out 480 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: of some of the other people's book and just be 481 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: a complete arshole because you've got there's some really tough 482 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: decisions to make here. Nathan and Tedesco coops just haven't worked. 483 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 1: There's been moments, but it just hasn't worked. I think 484 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: you're to look at at Dylan Edwards in this third game. 485 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: The other one is that the Nathan Cleary Mitchell Moses combination, 486 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: and then you got Isaiah there as well. My thing, first, 487 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: I'll say this, I think Isaiah goes to the bench. 488 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: I think you're going to start with Kem Murray I think, 489 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: and then Ethan Stranger Mitchell I was a real big thing. 490 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: Mitchell goes in with his presence and everything. 491 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 2: Thought it would have worked. That was my biggest fear 492 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:42,199 Speaker 2: going in the game too. 493 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: I think in this game. I think in game two 494 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: there was just we got beaten. The artist battle, but 495 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: I don't think we helped ourselves. I think there was 496 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 1: just too much passing. This's too many playmakers. You need 497 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 1: another ball on the field. I think it's Ethan Stranger 498 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: as a runner. Kem Murray starts, he's a runner, bring 499 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 1: Isaiah off the bench a little later on. I think 500 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: out my starting middles Payne, Hassen, Adam fanil Blake. Just 501 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: focus everything early on running and upfill penetration. 502 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 3: I think Ethan Stranger's got that personality could walk into 503 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 3: sun Corp and dominate. Moses has dominated Suncourt before. It's 504 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 3: an interesting one and Laurie has a huge conversation. I 505 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 3: think if I'm Laurie and I'm asking them, can you 506 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 3: do this? And I'd walk away thinking yes he can 507 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 3: or no he can't, that would be my base of decision. 508 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 3: I don't care if they play well this weekend, on 509 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: next or whatever. 510 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: Who's there more pressure on news Walls or Queensland Queensland 511 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: at home?
