1 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:08,240 Speaker 1: Welcome to L three sixty. I beligue from every angle, 2 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: brought to you by NIV. Joining me again the Great 3 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: Gordon Tallis. Let's bring the journal Australian Buzz Rothfield and 4 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 1: Brent Reed. We've got a massive show coming up and 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: starting off New South Wales queens Let have picked their teams. 6 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: It's Origin two and it's all started again. What's your 7 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: first thoughts, Gordy. 8 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 2: I like the Queensland side. 9 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 3: Obviously, Sell and Cobbo getting picked there was a shock 10 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 3: for me, but it was a master stroke with what 11 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 3: happened in the first seven minutes. But I think with 12 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 3: what New South Wales showed in the first seven minutes, 13 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 3: they want to come through the front door, so I 14 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 3: think we needed a few more forwards in the middle. 15 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 4: Buzz he definitely stronger New South Whales side with Latrell 16 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 4: and Del and Edwards, more points in us and I 17 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 4: think we'd keep third and on the part will be hard. 18 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 5: To beat ready, Yeah, I think the forgotten man there's 19 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,160 Speaker 5: Buzzes Mitch Moses too. I think he'll he's kicking game 20 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 5: and his direction will helping you so while so it's 21 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 5: going to be a tougher challenge in Melbourne. 22 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 2: I think okay. 23 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: Well, Billy Slater joins us live shortly and James Hooper 24 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: caught up with Michael Guy earlier today. Here's a little 25 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: comment from Madge that has lit the origin fuse. 26 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 6: Marines really go after Joseph Swale in the wake of 27 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 6: State of Origin one. 28 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 2: What's your response to that? 29 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think you've got to make sure you don't 30 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 7: live in glasshouses. 31 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 6: So when you say glasshouses, are you talking about Billy Slater? 32 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 7: I'll let you that one out. 33 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: Hoops there he is coach Michael McGuire from the New 34 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: South Wales Blues and we don't need to be Einstein 35 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,199 Speaker 1: to work out what he was referring to there, which 36 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:27,639 Speaker 1: he's fired a shot. 37 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: He's fired an early shot. I don't mind it. 38 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: I don't think Billy would probably agree with it, but 39 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: we'll talk to him later and find out. 40 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 2: But what do you guys think? 41 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 3: As a New South Welshman, you've got to stick up 42 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 3: for Joey and as a queens Under you stick up 43 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 3: for Reese. That's what's made this contest so great. I'm 44 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 3: on Billy side. If he's talking about Billy as a glasshouse, 45 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 3: I want my coach to stick up for me, right, 46 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 3: don't you like if that happened to you? 47 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 6: So? 48 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: But it's finally the coaches are starting to light. 49 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: Has he going to say that name? I think you 50 00:01:59,560 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: should know. 51 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 5: I think people should well, I think he should have 52 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 5: said who it was referring to. 53 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: Well, we all had a shot at Joey. We all 54 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 2: didn't like it. Who do you think he was referring to? 55 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 5: That's pretty obvious. 56 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: Exactly does he have a. 57 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: Point that you know, we assume that he's referring to Billy? 58 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: Does he have a point about the glass houses coming? 59 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 2: Oh? 60 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 4: You know, Billy had a few issues over his career, 61 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 4: but I will remember Billy is a champion, future, immortal 62 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 4: attacking player rather than a couple of the things he 63 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 4: did that manned him in trouble with the judiciary. 64 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 8: You know. 65 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 4: But look, I love passion, I love people fighting and 66 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 4: the verbals. 67 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: Well, it does a state of origin. 68 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 8: Isn't it. There hasn't been enough of this stuff. 69 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: Let's just have a look at the Queensland team which 70 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: they did name today. 71 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 2: Gordy, take us through it and give us your thoughts. 72 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 3: Well, it's good to see Reese Walsh recovering back. Obviously, 73 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 3: the whole back line picks themselves. No sale on Cobbo, 74 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 3: so I think he's injured. I think he's been playing 75 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 3: with some painkilling and injections. But I like Confusi and Capel. 76 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 3: I think with what New South Wales come at us, 77 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 3: you know that they want to come through our front door. 78 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 3: With Moses there, it's going to be a bigger, kicking game, 79 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 3: so we're going to struggle to come off our own 80 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 3: trialline at time. So I like the Queensland side, and 81 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: gay guy will be there as a back. I'm not 82 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 3: sure whether he'll be in the seventeen, but that's a 83 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 3: pretty strong. 84 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: Queensland He's just like it. It's a strong team again. 85 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: Coming off that win in game one against New South Wales, 86 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: let's cross the Queensland camp now Marons coach Billy Slater 87 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: is standing by Billy. You one up in the series, 88 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: only two changes. You must be confident. 89 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 9: Now, I wouldn't say confident is the way I'm feeling, Braith, 90 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 9: but I'm ready to get our preparation on and get 91 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 9: to work. I thought game one, you know this team 92 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 9: did a lot right, but I still think there's a 93 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 9: few gears left in us. 94 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: Someone who would give you confidence is the hammer after 95 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: that try on the weekend ninety five match meet, his 96 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: match winning tries in good You must be happy with 97 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: the way he's playing at the moment. 98 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's something that he can do that not many 99 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 9: players can do. But it's probably the other habits in 100 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 9: his game that I'm really enjoying. He's doing a lot 101 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 9: of good work at fullback, but he's he's doing a 102 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 9: lot of good habits as a center as well. It's 103 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 9: not an easy position to play, and he's a pretty 104 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 9: smart footballer, and you know we've got the luxury that 105 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 9: we can play him in a number of positions. 106 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 3: Hey, Billy, how hard is it to prepare for New 107 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 3: South Wales? Only thirteen minutes set with sorry, seven minutes 108 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 3: with thirteen players? Is it hard to predict what they're 109 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 3: going to do in game two? Yeah? 110 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 9: Well, it doesn't give you a whole heap of content 111 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 9: to work off from game one. But you know, you've 112 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 9: got to study the individuals and the patterns in individuals games. 113 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 9: You know, that's one thing that we won't disrespect is 114 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 9: our opposition. You know, will be well prepared to play 115 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 9: against the quality that they've put out on the field. 116 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 9: But at the same time we went disrespect our performance 117 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 9: and our footy. 118 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 10: You know that's our. 119 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 9: Priority is to go after that first and foremost, and 120 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:08,799 Speaker 9: you know that's where it will start this week. 121 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 4: Hey, Billy, can you take us through Selwyn Cobbo? And 122 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 4: when did you actually make the decision not to run 123 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 4: with him? 124 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 8: Was that a week ago? You've been talking to him 125 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:19,799 Speaker 8: for a while. What happened there? 126 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 10: No, that was yesterday. 127 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 9: Buzz I had a lengthy and deep discussion with Selwyn. 128 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 10: I've got a great relationship with him. 129 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 9: And he's just not quite one hundred percent to play 130 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 9: in Origin at the moment. He's been playing with painkilling injections, 131 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 9: and yeah, we just felt it was the right thing 132 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 9: for him and this footy team that that he wasn't 133 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 9: a part of the game two preparations. 134 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 10: So Selwyn's a wonderful player. 135 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 9: Sometimes we can forget how young these players are too. 136 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 9: They're still developing physically and it's a tough old game. 137 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 9: So the Broncos have got to buy this week. And 138 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 9: I'm pretty sure if they were applying this weekend that 139 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 9: Salwyn wouldn't be playing for the Broncos either. So this 140 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 9: is the decision I've made, and now I'm happy with 141 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 9: the decision we've made. 142 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 5: Hey, Billy, another young blake and that team is Reese Wall. 143 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 5: She hasn't played any footies since Origin one. Do you 144 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 5: have any concerns around that? 145 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 10: In short? Ready, No, I don't. You know, He's fine. 146 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 9: I've been in constant communication with Reeese throughout the last week. 147 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 9: He's got through a fair bit of training, but first 148 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 9: and foremost, his health's okay. He got through that concussion fine, 149 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 9: and you know, he gave us a lot of confidence 150 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 9: in his preparation in Game one. I was really excited, 151 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 9: you know, to see him go to work in the 152 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 9: game of footy. But you know that wasn't to be, 153 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 9: and he'll get another opportunity to get after his preparation 154 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 9: and I'm looking forward to being a part of that. 155 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 4: Billy, Is this NEWSFA side stronger with Latreal and Dylan 156 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 4: Edwards from Penrith in your opinion? 157 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 10: Yeah, Look, I don't know like stronger. It's different. You know, 158 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 10: you've got different players with different strengths. 159 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 9: Those players that aren't in the team are pretty strong 160 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 9: players as well, but they bring different things. So It's 161 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 9: about identifying the different strengths in individuals and what they 162 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 9: bring to their footy team and being aware of that 163 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 9: when you play against them. But like I said before, Buzz, 164 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 9: a lot of that preparation goes into our game and 165 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 9: if we get our game on well, you know, that'll 166 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 9: go a long way to helping us, you know, play 167 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 9: against the quality that they've got there too. 168 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 5: How you Billy Madge has sort of lit the fuse. 169 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 5: Today's asked about the comments about Reecee Walsh in the 170 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 5: lead up to Worlds in one. He said that and 171 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 5: the response since that to Joe and Joe taking out 172 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 5: Reeese Walsh, and he's basically cues Queensland is living in glasshouse. 173 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 5: A lot of people have taking that as a bit 174 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 5: of a shot against you. How do you respond to that? 175 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 9: Ah, what comments, the comments from me, the comments from. 176 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 5: The comments from you after the game. I think people 177 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 5: have taken what Madge has said about people living in 178 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 5: glasshouses and taking that as maybe a shot at you 179 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 5: and your comments after the game, which I think you 180 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 5: had to go at News World about targeting Reece Walsh. 181 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 9: I purposely didn't comment on that incident. If you listened 182 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 9: to the press conference. 183 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 5: It was after Sorry, I think you spoke later and 184 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 5: did you you said some comments on maybe the footy 185 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 5: show or something like that. 186 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 9: No, No, you might need to go and check my comments. 187 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 5: Okay, I'll look at them. 188 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 2: Billy all ability. 189 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: Are you doing a great job, mate, Congratulations on the 190 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 1: win in game one. We appreciate your time and good 191 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: luck for game. 192 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 2: To in Melbourne. 193 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 10: Thanks fellas. 194 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: Okay, you hear the crickets, then. 195 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 8: You can you please stop upsetting out guests. 196 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 5: We did make some comments, but they spoke about it 197 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 5: being a bad look for mothers. I wasn't I wasn't 198 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 5: never going Billy. I was giving the opportunity to respond 199 00:08:59,120 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 5: to Madge. 200 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 11: He seen. 201 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 5: I assumed he would have seen the comments from Madge. 202 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 5: He obviously hasn't seen them. I'm sure if he saw them, 203 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 5: maybe we've got a different reaction out of him, Because 204 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 5: you know, Madge made those comments stay back glass House, 205 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 5: and I think everyone assumes the director towards Billy. 206 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: Billy. 207 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 5: That's why he shouldn't. That's why Madge shouldn't have been 208 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 5: so general. If they directed to Billy, he should have. 209 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: Made it very clear directed like really, but Billy was quiet. 210 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 2: He was very angry, but he didn't say anything. 211 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: During the game, he got interviewed by I didn't say much, 212 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: and then after the game didn't say anything. He was 213 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: visibly angry about it. But then a few days later 214 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: on Channel nine he was quite outspoken about it. Yes, 215 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: so he did. 216 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: It's not like he didn't say anything about it. 217 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 3: But Madge can't go back to his playing career. It's 218 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 3: about his coaching career. He's seven games and if Madge 219 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 3: wants to have a goal on another coach, is about 220 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 3: his coaching career, not about his playing career. Because when 221 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,599 Speaker 3: Billy talks about a guy going and getting targeted, he 222 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 3: would because there's probably no like that's being targeted more 223 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 3: than Billy Slater in his era right I played against imagine, 224 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 3: he probably was never targeted. 225 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 2: No one even knew that he was on the field. 226 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 3: So as a player, when Billy sitting there, he knows 227 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 3: who's getting targeted to someone. That's so if Billy wanted 228 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 3: to be a smarter so he could say, well, he's 229 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 3: never been targeted, So we got to jump on Billy side. 230 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 4: That head at a Core stadium was up there with 231 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 4: Brahm and Boyd type fame in an Origin game. 232 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: It's Harry, it's it's chief and but you. 233 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 4: Actually want Billy to talk about it. And I was 234 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 4: particularly strong and you work too that it has no 235 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 4: place in rugby league. 236 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 2: Billy has his heart on his sleeve. And sometimes he 237 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 2: said about. 238 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 4: Mums and dads and there's a four million national audience. 239 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 4: He was actually right, I said, I said, we need 240 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 4: to spice Origin. We talk about all the time. It's 241 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 4: not what it used to be. It's good for the game. 242 00:10:58,960 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 2: It's fantastic. 243 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 5: I'd like to see his response after he sees mages 244 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 5: comments to see what is whether his response would be different, because. 245 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: Billy, okay, you don't think that Billy knew about Madge's 246 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: comments today, do you honestly? Can you look me in 247 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: the idea and say that you think that Billy Slater 248 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,239 Speaker 1: hadn't heard the comments from Manage McGuire today. 249 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 2: Over the press. I'd like to think Billy wouldn't put 250 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 2: me on show like that. 251 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: Well, unfortunately he did. 252 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 2: Queens and you love Billy and you just now as 253 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 2: a message you. 254 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 3: Said him twice in three years, but you weren't out 255 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 3: line Baldi other a defender any here like that was 256 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 3: a genuine question that happened today from Manage McGuire and 257 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 3: a lot of people. 258 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: Whether Billy likes it or not, whether you reaction, but 259 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 2: I love that to that adds more fuel to the fire. 260 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, though, there are 261 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: a lot of New South Welshmen who agree with Madge 262 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: who do and I've heard it from fans. I seen 263 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: it on social media. They're saying pot calling the kettle black. 264 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: Like I mean, at the end of the day, Billy 265 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: didn't have the greatest record. 266 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 2: Billy didn't. People out like that, don't compare the two. 267 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 2: You can't. You can't. I'm not saying that. But he wasn't. 268 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 2: He wasn't innocent. You know, he had his own maybe 269 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 2: a pot call the kettle. 270 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 8: He had adtional chart sheet Billy, But. 271 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 3: Coaching it's not about right now. He's a coach of 272 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 3: coins and and that's where we judge Billy. 273 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 2: We didn't judge him on the mag had a little jab. 274 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 2: You're right, the series need a bit spice.

Madge, thanks for joining us. 286 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 2: Five changes. 287 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 6: Why can this team go to Melbourne and win? 288 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 2: All five of those boys are playing really good footing. 289 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 7: You know I've obviously started that way back, but you know, 290 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 7: to see the players that I've been able. 291 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 2: To select and they're available. 292 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 7: Now, is you know the opportunity that we have and 293 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 7: looking forward to the camp ahead and then get into 294 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 7: the game. 295 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 6: You wanted Dylan Edwards for Origin one before a false start? 296 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 6: Why do you think that he's built for this arena? 297 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 7: Probably the same reasons why I picked him, and you know, 298 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 7: full credit to Teddy you as I said, you know 299 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 7: he's a champion. 300 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 2: Teddy. 301 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 7: The way he's gone about this space and to see 302 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 7: Dylan play yesterday just slids the reasons why I wanted 303 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 7: to pick him, and I just think Origin is about 304 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 7: working and efforts and Dylan's made for the effort part 305 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 7: of the game and very smart football for as well, 306 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 7: so he'll bring that. 307 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 2: Along with him as well. 308 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 6: The new South Wales bench is always contentious. Why Connor 309 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 6: Watson and how do you plan to use him? 310 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 2: Yeah? 311 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 7: Well, I actually was having a look at Connor prior 312 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 7: to first game, but obviously injuries provile. But I think 313 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 7: Connor is like a Craig wing style where he can 314 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 7: pretty well play any position, the center's halves, hooker, so 315 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 7: he's a perfect Fortean and he's been doing it for 316 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 7: a long time for the club across his career, so 317 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 7: I think he's a real perfect one for us. 318 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 6: Latrell Mitchell's approven, big game player. 319 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 2: What do you want to see from Latroll? Just Latrell 320 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 2: to play his game. 321 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 7: I think that's the thing that you know. I've spoke 322 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 7: to Latroll about and one really pleas how Latrell has 323 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 7: been over the last month. 324 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's the thing that. 325 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 7: We've spoken about in the background, and getting his footy 326 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 7: right and when his foot is right he can and 327 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 7: do the things that he's capable of doing. He's really 328 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 7: looking forward to coming into camp. He loves his space 329 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 7: so you know you definitely you can feel that. I 330 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 7: think he's in a real good front of mind now 331 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 7: to come in and just be the player around the 332 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 7: around the boys and do his job for the team. 333 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 2: And the state. 334 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 6: Acting a player at this level. Madge is always How 335 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 6: did nick O Horns take the news? 336 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 2: Yeah? He was good. 337 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 7: I mean, you know, we had a chat and he 338 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 7: understands and that's this space, and you know he'll go 339 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 7: away and work hard at his game. He's a real 340 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 7: student of that part of the game and he'll take 341 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 7: it and he'll grow off the back of it. I 342 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 7: can assure you from the conversations we had he was 343 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 7: really strong. 344 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 6: Mitch Moses has been solid without setting the world on 345 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 6: fire for the Eels the last few weeks. 346 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you want to see from one thing around? 347 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 7: Mitchell'll come in with the quality of player we have 348 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 7: and just playing his part. I think when you're a 349 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 7: senior player and the club, you're doing a lot of 350 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 7: different roles, but his role will be sort of isolated 351 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 7: down into what he needs to do, and you see 352 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 7: the moments of brilliance that Michigan do. 353 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: He's got speed, he's got. 354 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 7: Short size, and he can kick you know, it's a 355 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 7: big part of the game, so there's different qualities that 356 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 7: he'll bring which he'll plays part. 357 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 6: You're a huge fan of Cameron mckinnis, but you've had 358 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 6: to make a hard bare and call there, why was 359 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 6: Cam Murray and must go to Melbourne. 360 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 2: And Troy two great human beings. 361 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 7: Cam Murray's been there, done that, origin Australia captain and leader. 362 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 7: So yeah, I've been very fortunate to have two great, 363 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 7: great men in the two cams. But Cam Murray's proven 364 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 7: that he can do it at the highest level and 365 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 7: one day that the players will appreciate him coming in 366 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 7: and doing his partner. 367 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 2: This is a really special group. 368 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 7: Of players, know the way I've been able to see, 369 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 7: I've walked in and you hear certain things, the passion 370 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 7: that the players have towards this space, and what we 371 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 7: get to do now is come back together again and 372 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 7: with a sprinkling of a few sort of experienced players 373 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 7: coming in as well. I think that's going to be 374 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 7: a real big one for us moving into where we're going. 375 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 7: And there's a lot of belief around what we're doing 376 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 7: within this group and we just got to carry that forward. 377 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 6: Marines really go after Joseph Swale and the wake of 378 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 6: State of Origin one. 379 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 2: What's your response to that. 380 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think you've got to make sure you don't. 381 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: Live in glasshouses. 382 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 7: I think you know, Joey plays his style on fortunately 383 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 7: six foot three, and he probably just need to bend 384 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 7: his back a little bit more and we would have 385 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 7: played on. It was just one of those unfortunate things 386 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 7: that happens in games. But when you go after a player, 387 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 7: it's it's not accepted in this space. And you know, yeah, glasshouses. 388 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 7: It's an interesting one, that one. 389 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 6: So when you say glasshouses, he's talking about Billy Slater. 390 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 7: I'll leave you that one out, Hoops. But I guess 391 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 7: we're going to stay solid in the term and we're 392 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 7: looking after our players for the State. And you know, 393 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 7: the other way I see it is that we're going 394 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 7: to make sure that we bunk it down into what 395 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 7: we're doing and go about what we want and we're 396 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 7: looking forward to a good week. 397 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:28,199 Speaker 2: There. It is. 398 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: The fuse has been lit firing up for game two. 399 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 1: He mentioned it a few times. 400 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 2: It was pretty clear, Wasn't it really pretty clear? Except 401 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 2: to Billy all right? 402 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 4: And when Hoops went back at him, was referring to Billy. 403 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 4: He didn't deny it, and if it wasn't, Billy would 404 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 4: deny it. 405 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 2: This is looking good. 406 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: Let's have a look at the new South Wales team 407 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: for game two. Dylan Edwards comes back in after that 408 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: quite injury to replace James Tedesco or Crichton, Latrell Mitchell 409 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: the big inclusion there. We know Zachlaomax on the other 410 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: wing Drome and Mitchell Moses gets that number seven jersey 411 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: No Nico Heinz, Jake Chaboivitch retains the captaincy. Starting in 412 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: the front rower Robson Payne Harsley and Martin Gus Triton 413 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: and Cam Murray is the lock after just one game 414 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: for the Bunnies has earned the right to be back 415 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:16,959 Speaker 1: in Origin. 416 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 2: Now this was a bit of a shock surprise. 417 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: Maybe Connor Watson named in jersey number fourteen for the 418 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: Blues and will make his debut. Isaiaho hamale Oli Kuwatu 419 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,360 Speaker 1: and Spencer lend knew what a debut was for him 420 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: in game one and he was a certainty lining up 421 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: for game two. What are our first thoughts on this 422 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: new Southwest Blues team. 423 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 8: I really like it. 424 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 4: I love Latrell and Dylan Edwards being in the football side. 425 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 4: The Latrell journey over eight weeks. You go back to 426 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 4: his f bomb Tiraid on Triple Am. You go back 427 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 4: to Souse in crisis, a three week ban which I 428 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 4: think became a wake up call for him his coach 429 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 4: to return to the football field as class as he's 430 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 4: been the last couple of weeks. So I think it's 431 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 4: a really really good positive story because he was in 432 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 4: a lot of. 433 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 8: Bother eight weeks ago. He was going nowhere. 434 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 4: He is admitted now that he wasn't keen on playing 435 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 4: Game one because he wanted to stay. As I said 436 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,400 Speaker 4: in this show before and helps house that I think 437 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 4: he's going to make that. He's in a great headspace. 438 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: It looks good, he looks confident. He's an entirely different 439 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: player to what he was a couple of months ago. 440 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: He's back to Latroal Mitchell at his best. So it's 441 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: great time and he get him in for Game two. Gordon, 442 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: it's a it's a great news as well. 443 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 3: So Latrelle is so dangerous when he's at his best, 444 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 3: pulled the Times apart, pulled the Broncos apart. Playing in 445 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 3: his position where he started his career in the center 446 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 3: is the thing. The only thing that I ask is 447 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 3: what does happy corusol have to do with his deception 448 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 3: at nine? Played half back the other day and was 449 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 3: one of the best players on the field. So I mean, 450 00:19:58,520 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 3: I don't know. 451 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 2: We'll get to that. We'll get to a few of 452 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 2: those selections too. 453 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 1: But Latrell Mitchell was all smiles at Blues camp today 454 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: as he opened up on his long away to return 455 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:07,959 Speaker 1: to the Origin Arena. 456 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 11: I have a couple a lot of things and maybe 457 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 11: more resident, a bit more smarter, and we go from there. 458 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 8: It's been really good. 459 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 11: It's obviously situations for a reason, and you know, I 460 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 11: think tried to turn them and I'm here. 461 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:22,239 Speaker 2: I didn't pick him up. 462 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 11: I just wanted to play some good footy for us 463 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,719 Speaker 11: house and get back to them, and that's what it was. 464 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 11: And then form obviously spoke for itself. 465 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 2: And now I'm. 466 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 9: Here watching the GameLine knowing that much I probably should 467 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 9: be a part of its. 468 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 11: Yeah, I just think that's done now the game too, 469 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 11: so we'll focus on that. 470 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 7: I think he's the challenge of throwing risky season and 471 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 7: I'm here to just have fun, play the game and 472 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 7: come out with a win. 473 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 2: There is Latrell Mitchell ready as a Queenslander. Do you 474 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 2: fear him? 475 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 1: A lot of people say that he would be the 476 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 1: most feed new Southwest player on the field. 477 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 2: Do you agree with that? Well? 478 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 3: Do yeah? 479 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 5: I mean I was there on for it and I 480 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 5: watching him against the Bronco and you saw that tri 481 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 5: school when he just ran over the top of Jock 482 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 5: Madden and Tony Staggers. I think it was He's just 483 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 5: a powerhouse Latrell, and you guys said it. I mean, 484 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 5: he is in the mood right now. He's overcoming a 485 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 5: difficult start of the year. He's in a good headspace, 486 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 5: he's playing really good footy and he's the one guy 487 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 5: going down there. And I said before Game one break 488 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 5: he's the guy who scares me as a Queenslander and 489 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 5: I would have had him in Game one. I think 490 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 5: that hopefully for that for Whil's sake, they haven't left 491 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 5: the too late to bring him into the team because 492 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 5: they've still got even if they. 493 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 2: Win in Melbourne. 494 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 1: Going back on that, we just spoke about two months ago, 495 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 1: la Trop Mitchell was a different player. 496 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 2: Six weeks ago, he was a different player. 497 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: So a lot of people are saying, well, you know, 498 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 1: should have picked him in game one, or maybe we 499 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: leave our run too late, But he wasn't. 500 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 2: He wasn't. 501 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 4: He's on record and now I was saying he was 502 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 4: concerned for Sous and didn't want to catch up with 503 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 4: Madge and didn't want to declare his availability for Origin, 504 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 4: And I actually admire that that he was. 505 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: You know, he's focused, yes, and you know he's bounced 506 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: back from where he was and he's in the right 507 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: frame of mind now, which is important for Latrell, and 508 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:07,439 Speaker 1: he's playing great footing. 509 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 2: I want to ask you a question to that. 510 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: So of course he's going to be one of our 511 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: big strike weapons Gory, there's no doubt about that. And 512 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: he can beat two or three defenders when he's closer 513 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: to the line, is almost unstoppable. 514 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 2: Absolutely, But will Queensland target him? Re Swalsh out the 515 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 2: bad everybody's targeted. 516 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 3: So Latrell loves collision as well, right, So like Big Joey, 517 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:30,919 Speaker 3: he loved the collision, right, and then he went to 518 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 3: find the collision. There's no doubt Billy, as you talk 519 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 3: about him, he prepares for the individual and there's no 520 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 3: doubt that Latrell with the ball in hand, there's no 521 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 3: better sight than rugby league. We don't really talk about 522 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 3: his efforts when he doesn't have the ball in his hands. 523 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 3: And that's what Queensland will be looking at. That's the 524 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 3: weakness of everybody's game. That is the weakness of every 525 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 3: rugby league players game when you don't have the ball 526 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 3: in your hands, and everybody's got a weakness there, and 527 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 3: that's what you know, and that's what the good coaches 528 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 3: go out there to a pin. 529 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: Point in Latrell no, because he was targeted when he 530 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: come up with that shot on Reese Waltz. 531 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 2: Right, they know he's a center, that he's normally a winger. 532 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 1: He's playing center and Sue he loves the jam and 533 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: come outside in and put. 534 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 2: On big shots. 535 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: So they get they get reeswalhed coming out the back. 536 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: They know he's going to jam. Reese goes bang and 537 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: they got him normally being a center, not a winger, 538 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: not used to being a center. He got his technique wrong, 539 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: he got his timing wrong. He's gone after seven minutes. 540 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 2: Now. 541 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: It was unlucky and it was a rare incident. But 542 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: you can't tell me that they weren't plenty to get 543 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: it so elite in that first game as well, there's 544 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 1: no doubt. 545 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 3: And then Loomak's on the wing defender that haven't defended 546 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 3: together before, so if he gems and with him, it's 547 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 3: a cutout pill. But that's what the Great side too. 548 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 3: There's no doubt the News South was coming up with 549 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 3: a plan with Vell Holmes. You know, it looks like 550 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 3: probably Vell will probably match up with Latrell. What a 551 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 3: battle that has been. If he talks to any center 552 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 3: that's that's market control. It's yeah, it's a handful when 553 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 3: he's got the ball. 554 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 4: Imagine Madage will give Latrelle some type of license that 555 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 4: he doesn't in attack when we've got the football have 556 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 4: to stand in a traditional left center position and he 557 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 4: can roam as we've seen other players in Origin. I 558 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 4: think they just want his hands on the forty and 559 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 4: not having. 560 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 8: To wait for it. 561 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 2: I keep it, I keep it simple. 562 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, but he's arguably the best center in the game 563 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: when he plays there. Do your job, focus on your job, 564 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: and you'll be bloody hard to stop. 565 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 2: There's no doubt Queen's on the matter. 566 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 5: If they don't go after him though, and as you said, 567 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 5: try and explain him because he hasn't played center in 568 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 5: a while. I know you don't don't forget how to 569 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 5: play there, but it has been a long time since 570 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 5: he's played their breath, and I think he's undercover's wish 571 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 5: rolls of speed. It doesn't matter how good to send 572 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 5: you are, Reece can get you. 573 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter who you are. 574 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: About miss Moses, He's got the call up. We've been 575 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: talking about this for a few weeks and it was 576 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: pretty obvious he was going to. 577 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you think being in ne half. I 578 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 3: think he's kicking game is superior. That's what's got. That's 579 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 3: what's got in between he and Cherry Evans the best 580 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 3: long kid game in the game. 581 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: And that's what you know. I said it the other day. 582 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: That's what really hurts in Game one. That was my 583 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 1: concern in Game one is that hein's great player but 584 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: not known for his long kicking game or his finesse 585 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 1: like Leu eis Well, louis dangerous with the ball in hand, 586 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: come up with a beautiful kick for Teddy for that 587 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: first try for New South Wales. So he's got it 588 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 1: in him. But like Origin, you get stuck in your 589 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: own twenty thirty. It's hard to make meters. Your kicking 590 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: game is it's almost the most important thing, and you 591 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: need you need to prioritize that. And Mitchell is one 592 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: of the best kickers in the game. So yeah, I 593 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: think that that's the big reason he got the call up. 594 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 1: But he's also been there and done it, so it's 595 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: it's a good call. 596 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 2: Buzz. 597 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 4: No, I'm happy with Mitch boss there. You know, Nikos 598 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 4: had a couple opportunities only won at hard. 599 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 2: What your thoughts on Nick What did he got on? 600 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 2: Nick out the man? 601 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 8: I think Nicko is okay. 602 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 4: You know last year he was down in the dumps 603 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 4: more when he was dropped. I think it was more 604 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 4: expected this time. I think he's worked very, very hard 605 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 4: with good people on his mental health and being able 606 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:13,199 Speaker 4: to react to setbacks like this one. I think he 607 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 4: has been told that he hasn't got life, that a 608 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 4: new South Wales Jersey don't give up. And I know 609 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 4: that sounds because Cleary's going to be back and Moses 610 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 4: ahead of him. 611 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 3: You made some really good points, but when players miss 612 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 3: out on teams and we all have, isn't that motivation? 613 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 3: Is this because every kid got a ribbon at school. 614 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know everyone hands. And what I'm trying 615 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 4: to say is he's not down in the dump. 616 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 3: Side, but he's playing for a team. They're coming first. 617 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,479 Speaker 3: He goes back, he goes back, concentrates on Cranulla and 618 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 3: gets them to win another Premier. 619 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: She had the problem with Origin and I've been there 620 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: myself and I've been on the end of it. These 621 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: people label you an Origin player or not. 622 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's what happens, right. 623 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: You can say it's just like Niko has got the 624 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: attitude to come back and get back into that team, 625 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: and he's got the game to. 626 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,919 Speaker 2: Be a really good Origin players. Let's the label you 627 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 2: get and then people judge you on that. 628 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 4: I wish we'dn't know what would have happened if it 629 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 4: was third on the side in that game, and would 630 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 4: it have been easier for him. 631 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 8: To make a statement in that football game. 632 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 5: But it's important to remember that Mitch would have been there 633 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 5: if he'd been fair, it would have been clear and 634 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 5: Moses and the half in the halves if both those 635 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 5: guys were fit. So Mitch was always going to come 636 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 5: back into this team. If he'd come back and played well. 637 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 5: And he played and he's played reasonably well. 638 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,199 Speaker 2: The pass three with right stick around Boys following and 639 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 2: all three 640 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: Sixty j Duke sits down with Cowboys premiership winner Michael 641 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: Morgan
