Speaker 1: Well you had Owen Craigie who used to live with it, right.

161
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, and yeah he lived with that. He'd lived with

162
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 3: Trisha and I. He's a young Indigenous player, freak. Never

163
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 3: seen anything like it, the talent. He won a gold

164
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 3: medal in the school Boy Olympics the week before he

165
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 3: came to us as a young guy. I played first grade,

166
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 3: played first grade sixteen.

167
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: Yeah for the night was it did? David with the Knight,

168
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: he played.

169
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 3: For the Tigers as well as he had to step

170
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 3: with the West Tigers went South Sydney for just just

171
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 3: lost his way out.

172
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: He's going good. Now he's going good but lost his

173
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: way back on his career that game over that win

174
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: over the Doggie, sorry, tily outstanding, What like what does

175
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: that mean for the for the club because it's been

176
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,559
Speaker 1: it's been an up and down near for you guys.

177
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: But to get a good win over a top four side.

178
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was obviously massive. Anytime we come across them

179
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 2: Western Sydney teams, mate, it's it's always a big occasion.

180
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 2: And obviously this this game was the only time we

181
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 2: has Doggies all year, and I guess there's a bit

182
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 2: of hype going into it and stuff like that, and

183
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 2: you know, boys turned up and putting the cracker before. Obviously, yeah,

184
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 2: good to get the results going into a buy. You

185
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 2: know how it's going to a buy. You play ship

186
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 2: and you lose a long long days the next game.

187
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: You know, and may you twilight.

188
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 3: And I said this to you on the show, Like

189
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 3: you and the boys on the couch, we we take

190
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 3: the piece and a bit of fun. But I'm telling

191
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 3: you we yeah, we sit back in the greenroom and

192
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 3: watch all the games and mate with why the way

193
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 3: you played? For a long time I remember talking and

194
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 3: Tivan Cleary about you did he.

195
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,559
Speaker 2: Debut you, I haven't. I've actually brought into the club.

196
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 2: Did he left twelve months later?

197
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 3: I remember watching like I'll talk to young Fords sometimes

198
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 3: and I say, if you want to know how to

199
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 3: make your career and get the best out of yourselfe

200
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 3: to watch Alex twelve.

201
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 1: Number one. He's ridiculously fit.

202
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 3: Number two he's got good acceleration and primarily the most

203
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 3: important thing your good late footwork. You know, if you

204
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 3: get late footwork, you're always punching yourself through and getting offloads.

205
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 3: So good on your mate, do so good?

206
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 2: It means I'm from your mate. Yeah. Obviously it's been

207
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 2: tough like the last couple of years and stuff, But

208
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 2: you know, I think the club we've gone a lot

209
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 2: better this year than we were last year. So I

210
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 2: think for us it's all about improvement now.

211
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: Now, like your loyalties of the club like it must

212
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: have been, because Tigers have been under the microscope for

213
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 1: a long time, like it must have been. It's a

214
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,199
Speaker 1: it's a good sign of your character to stay at

215
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: a club that has probably been under the pump for

216
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: side like ever since you come into first grade.

217
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 2: Really right, Yeah, to be honestly, like I've had a

218
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 2: few opportunities to leave and go when I come up

219
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 2: to a contract, even you know, particularly the last time

220
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 2: I come off contract, I sort of I was actually

221
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 2: I drove up to merely and I was actually speaking

222
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 2: of Sea Bowl and stuff like that.

223
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: But make sure to look at this.

224
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 2: Older just moved here with you guys have to stay

225
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 2: passport that dog is obviously as well. I was very

226
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 2: close there. But you know, for me, I'm a loyal

227
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 2: type of guy mate, and you know, I'm really great

228
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: for our stayed and yeah, I think you.

229
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: Know it's listening to blokes like gal who stay at

230
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: and become like one club at Sharks and they deliver

231
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: a premiership there like in a long time that they

232
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: haven't seen success. I imagine like if you guys can

233
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: and it looks like you guys going up Tigers as

234
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: a club, if you can, you know, jag a premiership

235
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 1: by the time you're finished playing like that had means

236
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 1: so much to you, I imagine one.

237
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 2: Hundred percent, Like you know, the club means a lot

238
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 2: to me. Obviously almost played there now for ten years.

239
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 2: I think next year you'll win with tenth season. So

240
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 2: if I you know, one day when I wrap it up,

241
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 2: I'd love to, you know, play finals and win the premiership.

242
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,719
Speaker 1: And those Tigers fans they're like that the scenes when

243
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: you guys play a like art Oval and they're all

244
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: on the hill like they seem like they're passionate, like

245
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 1: they'll get into your if you aren't playing well, but

246
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: they're they're loyal, Like it's a good fan base to have.

247
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 2: One hundred percent. I think we play some of the

248
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 2: best footy there. Like you play a few more games there.

249
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 2: But yeah, like you said, man, if you're not playing well,

250
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 2: you get you get boot off. Playing well, they get

251
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:56,880

Speaker 2: Acre and we enjoyed it. Man.

274
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: First of all, HANDI do that in the first time

275
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: Fletcher has ever been that far out. Well, Fletch thinks

276
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: like us western what like, just take us back. The

277
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: first thing you ever did with Fletchinghindi was that when

278
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: they had you Benji happy and you forgot to you

279
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: forgot the Tigers team song.

280
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that was the first time. And then

281
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 2: to be honest, it was just that and nothing. I thought.

282
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 2: It was just like one of them segments. I was

283
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 2: just like and they started asking from these things at

284
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 2: me and I was just like responding how I thought

285
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 2: it was just of natural instinct And then next minute

286
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 2: I knew it blew up. And then and a few

287
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: segments later and do you.

288
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: Enjoy doing it. Do you enjoy doing that stuff? Like?

289
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 2: Is that made to me? It's like it's honestly, it's

290
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 2: like a it's honor and it's a privileged to work

291
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 2: with your dad and to work with fletching Heinie. Mate,

292
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 2: good guys, I'll look up to you.

293
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

294
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 2: And I was a parafin growing up so liked he

295
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 2: was like yeah.

296
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, like, you guys take the piss

297
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: out of him so much that probably like a lot

298
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: of the modern generation don't realize how good he was. Heindi. Yeah,

299
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 1: it's actually say because you guys go never won a premiership.

300
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: So people still growing up now who never saw Heindi,

301
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,719
Speaker 1: we'd go like, look at this to lose he first.

302
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 3: Started doing our show and they started doing the flesh

303
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 3: and heidis and taking the piss and all that sort

304
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,079
Speaker 3: of stuff. Some of Heindi's old text. When I'd run

305
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 3: into him, that'd say, oh, you know, we're a bit

306
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 3: worried about what's going on. You know, we think he

307
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,719
Speaker 3: should be a serious commentator. Okay, sorry, Heindi a serious commentator.

308
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 3: But the other thing I said.

309
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: You know what boys think of it like this, there's

310
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: a million commentators there's me of him around, but there's

311
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: not many flesh and Heindis. That's the thing. And I

312
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: think people are screaming like ever since like the Old

313
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: Footy Show's finished, people are screaming for that sort of content,

314
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,040

00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's fletched Heindi and calf and Magic Ground. They're

319
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 1: sitting on the sideline doing sort of the alternate commentary

320
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: and the Warriors are playing and Luke Metcalfe looks over

321
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: at them not long before before full time and sees

322
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,160

Speaker 1: love you blokes, love everything you do. And they're like

325
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: so funny. Really that's yeah, It's amazing how many of

326
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: the boys they want to do that sort of stuff,

327
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: but they they don't do it because like they're not

328
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: like not embarrassed, but they're afraid of being shamed.

329
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 2: To get into them.

330
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: They take the piss out of them all the time.

331
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: But there's so many like undercover funny blokes in the

332
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: NRL who just behind closed doors. They're the funniest people ever.

333
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: But then as soon as a Michael camera gets in

334
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: front of their face, they stiff and right up. Jerome

335
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: Hughes is one of them. Hughesy is one of the

336
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 1: funniest blokes ever. Takes piss out of everyone, and then

337
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: as soon as he has a glass of red wine,

338
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: just turns into an absolute animal. Trice said to me

339
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: once that we had the Parents weekend.

340
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 3: She has that guy see a player and yeah, t Hughes,

341
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 3: She goes, Oh my god, he's awful.

342
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:16,239
Speaker 1: He's a champion red one right. But like him, particularly

343
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: like when he when a camera comes out, he doesn't

344
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: show that side of himself. I'm sure when the boys

345
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: finish up playing, they'll get out of their skin. The

346
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: Tigers like that bloke who's the who's the secret funny guy.

347
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's a secret, but Tito ever

348
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 2: since he come man, he's just got everyone in the

349
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: stitches and he's got that like I don't know if

350
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 2: he's got that sort of comedy sort of Kevin Hart

351
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 2: sort of style about him, and he sort of he's

352
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 2: just yeah, he's awesome man, but.

353
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: He's he seems like the height, like the energy man.

354
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 2: He's the energy man. But every day you can't you

355
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 2: can't have it. You can't have a down day, bro.

356
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 2: You can't just walk in and just go back to work.

357
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 2: You just got to You got to face him, and

358
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 2: he gets you.

359
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: Up for it.

360
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 3: So I imagine sometimes you walk in the train and

361
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 3: you feel a little bit tired and he's starts going,

362
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 3: oh fuck.

00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: funny blokes, particularly Samuela. His parents are so nice.

367
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

368
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: Also nice people in Jordan and Jurdah for a bit

369
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,920

370
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:18,400

00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: great history of rugby league there.

373
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I went to school there. Obviously grew up

374
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 2: in Maryland, so I was only down to the road

375
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 2: west Mead. But yeah, they used to be a real

376
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,200

Speaker 2: in the Prince with torn brother, Patty sort of brushed

378
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 2: all the foot. He put it to the side and

379
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 2: started focusing on the school stuff, the education.

380
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: How do you go with academics?

Speaker 1: Are you born in nineteen o seven, six ninety six? Yeah, okay,

416
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,120
Speaker 1: so you're still young, tailing far out. He's been around for.

417
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Roami, who was like all them. Yeah, it was

418
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 2: a massive rivalry para, especially us coming through the grades. Yeah, yeah,

419
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 2: it was massive.

420
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,199
Speaker 1: When you have Ivan the Tigers that you only had

421
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: him for twelve months. You were saying, yeah, like could

422
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: you see him him as a coach back then? Could

423
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: you see how good he was? Like obviously he's had

424
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,199
Speaker 1: so much success now, but you didn't have it as

425
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 1: much back down.

426
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. To be honest, man, that year that he had us,

427
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 2: we ended up on twenty eight or thirty points, but

428
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 2: it was the tightest year in a long time. We

429
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 2: finished ninth, but on twenty eight points, and there was

430
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 2: just that falling against didn't get us in there. Man.

431
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 2: He was an awesome coach. I can't speak quite enough

432
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 2: of him. Yeah, especially as a young bloke. Just the

433
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 2: way he nursed me through that first year of an

434
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 2: RL was just it was awesome.

435
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 3: And then returned to Penris. But I suppose they've got

436
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 3: a pretty good half back. It's probably you know, yeah

437
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 3: as well he was actually living with the time, not

438
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:22,920
Speaker 3: like that.

439
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 2: Yea.

440
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: Even see even like that the game you guys, Ver's

441
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 1: the Dogs. The other day, we're watching it. Remember like back

442
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 1: in the probably like a decade ago where basically across

443
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: the NRL there was that many gun players and they'd

444
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 1: all come through that Melbourne system and you were like,

445
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,199
Speaker 1: oh he used to play, you know, like James Maloney's

446
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: come through the Melbourne system. Heats the boys who would

447
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: go there, their value go up. Then they'd sign as

448
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 1: the star player somewhere else. You see in that game

449
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: where Tiger's Verse Dogs, it was like nine or ten

450
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 1: Penrick games in it. Yeah, like look the may brothers

451
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: like obviously Critter and all those boys. But yeah, you

452
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: see the sliding like he's done such a good job.

453
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: But they've got so many duns out there in Penrith.

454
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 1: But the amount of blokes that have come through that

455
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: system now and they've just like dispersed in the NRL.

456
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 2: That's crazy, man, the nursery out there, Like I said before,

457
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 2: since we were young, like yeah, Penrith have always had

458
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 2: a massive great n See.

459
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: What Tailor is going to be. Tailor man is going

460
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: to be a good pick up for his Yeah going forward, mate,

461
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: he's man.

462
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 2: He's a powerhouse and awesome player. Man and awesome blokers

463
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 2: were off the field. Oh yeah, I'll get along, say,

464
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 2: well with both of them, you know and Tailor and

465
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,119

466
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: the film, there's obviously athletes, especially Tailor.

467
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: He's everything pretty misunderstood a tailor, I think.

468
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 2: So. Yeah, he's obviously been through a lot on that

469
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 2: over the last sort of twenty four months. But yeah, man,

470
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,280

00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: that's I would not have picked that. I wouldn't have

498
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: to be so keen to do it.

499
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,959

00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 2: how's Benji Young, he's gone good man, Like, yeah, I

501
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 2: was so happy on the weekend. I get the results

502
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 2: in such a good team. And you know, he's been

503
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 2: awesome this year, you know, especially you know with the

504
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 2: cars that he got dealt early with the whole Galvo

505
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 2: situation and had to go through it again with Hooker

506
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. Mate, he just dealt with it awesome.

507
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 2: And yeah, yeah, I can't speA highly enough of him.

508
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 1: Way and do you go toil because you played with

509
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:18,920
Speaker 1: Benji as well?

510
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 2: Right? Yeah? I played with him so my first so

511
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 2: eighteen I didn't play sorry, yeah, nineteen twenty and twenty

512
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 2: one so played together three years. Yeah.

513
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: How's that when you have a you have a crossroads

514
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 1: where you play and then he ends up being your coach?

515
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: Is that kind of weird?

516
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 2: Sometimes? Yeah? Or not really, to be honest, I always

517
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 2: stay in touch with it. When he left and he

518
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 2: was working out Fox, I stay in touch with him.

519
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 2: But probably the element there that's like at the start,

520
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 2: I was like we used to play together, yeah, you know,

521
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 2: But in saying that, like, yeah, it's been awesome man.

522
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 2: We obviously have a really good relationship because we've been

523
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 2: together through so much.

524
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,239
Speaker 1: But yeah, he seems like he's so loved by all

525
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 1: the players. Like I remember when Harry Grant went to

526
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: you guys on a loan and when he come back,

527
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: he was like Benji. Benji was obviously playing with his then,

528
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: but he was like, mate, Benji is just he just

529
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: has the whole, like he just owns the room. Like

530
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: all the boys love him. He's just the best bloke, shouts,

531
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 1: shouts a lot of the beers and stuff like that.

532
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 1: So he's us with him like he had crocodiles in

533
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 1: his pockets.

534
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you would have coached him as all right, Yeah,

535
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 3: I a little bit in two thousand and five.

536
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, the back end of that year did a little bit.

537
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 1: He was It was really it was really good. At

538
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 1: that side.

539
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 3: They had the harsh combination was he and Scotty Prince

540
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 3: Prince He was more the student of the game. Benji

541
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 3: back in those days was just a free wheeler and tunes.

542
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 3: He was happy to do that. Like you know, most

543
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 3: of the coaching I did was with Princey as far

544
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 3: as he's kicking. But with Benji, you know, you just

545
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 3: let him be Benji.

546
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: He was the maverick. You know, he was the one

547
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: that sort of made give the side a complete completely

548
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: different point of difference to the rest, but made he's

549
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: done a good job a tier. He's done a good job.

550
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: Made he should tackle the players more because since she

551
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: tackled he holy fucking oh mane two, he's on fire.

552
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's been killing the frust man. Yeah. I think

553
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 2: over the last month of foot especially like he's been

554
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 2: the best player and you know, especially on the weekend man,

555
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 2: like he's probably the difference in a lot of ways.

556
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,679
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, he's he's just been awesome. Man. I

557
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 2: couldn't be happier for him.

558
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, did you because you played you would have played

559
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 1: Lebanon with him before he even came to the Tigers.

560
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, yeah, so he was he was still young,

561
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen. He was like, he's too younger than me,

562
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 2: so he would have been like maybe eighteen.

563
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 1: It was Freddie Fitler coach and he coach.

564
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was just by a chance that our

565
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,359
Speaker 2: captain got knocked out in the woman. He was holding

566
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 2: the pad for one of the boys and you know,

567
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 2: boys run through the pad that captain was holding the pad,

568
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 2: and then one of the boys run too hard and

569
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 2: she mocked him on. I think he got stretched off

570
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 2: on that. So it was as was as was eighteenth man.

571
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 2: So Ads came in and won us the game. That game,

572
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 2: she scored the winning try and the rest was history.

573
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 2: And Freddy picked him the whole the whole tournament and

574
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 2: end the debut on the next year.

575
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 1: And did you were you coached by Michael Checker as well?

576
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 2: Nah? So the last World Cup I missed, But yeah,

577
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 2: Checks the good blog, I have a really good lad should.

578
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,400
Speaker 1: Be himage, tremendous fellow Maronite.

579
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah he's a fellow. Yeah, and people people get surprised

580
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 2: on to people he's Lebanese, but.

581
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's actually Checks Maroon Hite.

582
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 3: The other thing about Checked that some he's highly like.

583
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 3: I think he actually coach on the NRL these days,

584
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 3: as far as the assistance to a lot of the

585
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 3: works the head coaches like the real figurehead. He's a

586
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 3: great presence. I think he could. I think that check

587
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 3: where he made his money the clothing industry, in fashion,

588
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 3: made his money in fashion really.

589
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 2: For Blake the dresses so poor, he's made some money.

590
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that. One time he invited us to

591
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 2: his house and I was thinking maybe fellow LEO will

592
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 2: be in green Acher early and something sent me that

593
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 2: address was could you I was like, up there they

594
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 2: mentioned I.

595
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: Remember, I remember, I need to only one mate. I

596
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 1: probably I would have played maybe four first grade games.

597
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 1: And I get a call from a random number and

598
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: it was Michael Checker and he was coaching in Japanese

599
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: rugby at the time, over Pan twenty twenty one and

600
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: we're staying up in Noosa and he was like, mate,

601
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: what's doing And I said, oh, no, not much and

602
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,239
Speaker 1: he's like, mate, I'm over coaching in Japanese. Ruby, I'm

603
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: thinking about getting I need a new fly half. I

604
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: thinking about maybe bringing a league over if you're interested.

605
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh mate, check it up. And

606
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 1: I didn't get the message clearly. He thought like, oh mate,

607
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 1: my time in the NL was done. And I was going, oh,

608
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 1: you know, check, I'm still quite young. I'd love to

609
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 1: chance my hand still here in the N round and

610
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: he goes, oh really, and is that funny? Is that

611
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: I appreciate you not laughing Twilight and I disrespect you?

612
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh shit, okay, no mate, check

613
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: So I'll hold off. In hindsight, jeseus it would have

614
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 1: been a good opportunity to go over there live in

615
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 1: Japan for twelve months. I can imagine he must have

616
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: been ready to say, oh really, because I was talking

617
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: to Belly anyway, have a good career being coached by Madge.

618
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 1: How was Madge?

619
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,479
Speaker 2: Yeah? It was good, man like, honestly, like speaking honestly, like,

620
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 2: you know, the first couple of years, Mate, we're going

621
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 2: really well, and I think there was a stage there.

622
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 2: We saw the plateau and you know, there was a

623
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 2: lot of media attraction and stuff like that, a lot

624
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 2: of pressure on the club. And to be honest, man like,

625
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 2: he's a really good coach. I can't speak high enough

626
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 2: of him, and I know he got it. It was

627
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 2: tough for him when he was at Tigers, you know,

628
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 2: with all the media and stuff like that. But but

629
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 2: he sort of showed me what it took to be

630
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 2: a first grader. Yeah right, and sort of I'm in

631
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 2: debt him from that sort of point of view. You know,

632
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 2: Army camps every year and sort of just a week

633
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 2: to beak grind. So I was still young obviously when

634
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 2: I had him, and Mate, yeah, he's an.

635
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 1: Awesome How were those Army camps were?

636
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 2: They tough, tough, really, yeah, especially I think the first one,

637
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 2: I was like, it was three days, but it was

638
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 2: just like it was relentless, no sleep, no sleep, blind

639
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 2: forward ye, proper, proper army care. But it was like massive,

640
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 2: I open up a good experience and that obviously you've

641
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 2: done a couple, but that first one. Man, Yes, it's.

642
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 1: Hard to it's actually hard to explain it to people sometimes,

643
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,360
Speaker 1: just how bad, particularly the ones with no sleep, where

644
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: people are like, what, you stayed up for three days

645
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: no sleep and you're trying to explain how hard it was.

646
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: People don't get it. Yeah, it is the worst thing

647
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: in the world if you.

648
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 3: Make it have no sleep for three days. Most weekends

649
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 3: totally different. Yeah, but that's yeah. I mean like mad

650
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 3: just had a little bit of criticism, and like thinking

651
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 3: about Madge is one of the most disciplined men you'd

652
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 3: ever come across, and the first cousin of disciplined stubbornness,

653
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 3: and it takes him a lot to change his ways.

654
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 3: I can see he's adjusted some of his ways at

655
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 3: the Broncos. But as you know, there's certain non negotiables

656
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,959
Speaker 3: when it comes to being a professional athlete, particularly rugular

657
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 3: and one is physical fitness, isn't it?

658
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, one hundred percent And it was massive on that.

659
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 2: That and hard work, like if you didn't have them too,

660
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 2: like it didn't really matter how how good of a

661
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,959
Speaker 2: player you were. He just he wouldn't ye, he just

662
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 2: wouldn't budge on them.

663
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: Two things about Harry Grant when he went there.

664
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 2: That was awesome obviously. I remember like it was one

665
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 2: game we beat the Broncos and he was getting chance

666
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 2: it off the field and that was obviously awesome obviously

667
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 2: with what he's going on to do now in the game.

668
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 2: To play with him and to have him at the club,

669
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 2: I think you know it was it was awesome.

670
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 1: Seemed like that year just had like a tight group,

671
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: like I think Gubby Joshy Reynolds was there as well,

672
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 1: Brooksy Elijah Taylor was that his last year.

673
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 2: He's the one. The funniest bloke really.

674
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: I've heard. I've heard he is a terrific by.

675
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 2: Have you you got to see he's got a page

00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 2: Have you seen it? Yeah? Yeah, if you want to

677
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,479
Speaker 2: get a good inside, yeah, have a look at that.

00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: He was also that year, I think it was twenty twenty.

679
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 1: Was he also like practicing to be a pilot as well.

680
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he was practicing to be a pilot.

681
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,400

Speaker 1: but one of the Melbourne He was so a breath

703
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: of fresh air from like the people that Melbourne usually recruited.

704
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 1: Let me just tell people, nother wouldn't have been the

705
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: normal bloke that Craig Bellamy would have signed. But no

706
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 1: fer he was so different to everyone that he'd like

707
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: kind of it was refreshing to the group and he

708
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: fit in really well. But he is so he's so

709
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 1: like what's the word he's not He's not arrogant. But

710
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,320

Speaker 1: this Belgrave. I don't know what he's doing over there though,

737
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: because he's he's too good. I've seen some of his highlights,

738
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 1: like he posted something the other day he was dead

739
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:52,959
Speaker 1: to walking over the line scoring.

740
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 3: Well, it might just be lifestyle, I mean living in

741
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 3: the Balkans. Yeah, but enough shot mate, it's spreading around

742
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 3: the becoming a franchise mate.

743
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 1: Can you run through as well? The one hundred and

744
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: sixteen game try scoring drought, which you broke because because

745
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: that just that just turned into like the biggest thing

746
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: on social media, just like when's Alex twelg and the

747
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,239
Speaker 1: score that game it was against the storm A when

748
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 1: you scored.

749
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, against Storm. I think it was only try that

750
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 2: game as well?

751
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, what is it was like? Yeah it was a

752
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: really low scoring game.

753
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 2: Aeah, no it was high score, but like scoring on now.

754
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 1: Did what was that? What was that feeling like when

755
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 1: you score?

756
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, bro, I could look good about that. But to

757
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 2: be honest, obviously it was good to get the monkey

758
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 2: off the back, but one hundred and sixteen games.

759
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: What did it feel like for a bloke who hadn't

760
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: scored in one hundred and sixteen games? Was it like

761
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: complete foreign territory when you cross the line? Really?

762
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 2: I didn't know. When I got up, I was like weird,

763
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 2: I just like it just what it feels off the score.

764
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 2: But then I was I did have to do much

765
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 2: as well, thinking in the back head it was a shit.

766
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,239
Speaker 1: I remember if you went to the video referee, if

767
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: they took it off. Yeah. I remember the try because

768
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: like someone dropped it and it just bounced up and

769
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 1: Clem was there, David Klemar and he like went to

770
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: lunch at it. Saw you sort of backed away and

771
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,720
Speaker 1: you just like a stavy man on a burrito.

772
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. It was crazy.

773
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 4: I asked, did you have any did you have any

774
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 4: disallowed in those one hundred and sixty how many Cups

775
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 4: game one hundred and sixteen one hundred and sixteen games?

776
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 4: Did you have any that were actually disallowed by the

777
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 4: video ref?

778
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 2: I had one against camera and it was actually a

Speaker 1: sword off I think, or like they chain them off.

886
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: Similarly they cut you know when they cut a cast off.

887
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 1: Have you ever had a cast? Yeah, I've had a

889
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,359

890
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: It can cut through the cast, but it can't cut

891
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:13,920

894
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,560

Speaker 1: it hits your skin, the blades like, it can't penetrate

896
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: through skin, but it can penetrate through the plasa.

897
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 2: It's the same thing for the ring.

898
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,200

00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 1: Just random? I was just thinking about you. Blake's in

936
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 1: your career and it's born off in the stories. Who knows.

937
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:27,839
Speaker 3: The best player you've played with toy.

938
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 2: Say Benji Benji? Yeah, yeah, it was just like even

939
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 2: see him run around now, I man like some of

940
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,880
Speaker 2: the stuff he does, like it's still got it. You

941
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 2: don't say people in our game now doing it, you

942
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,319
Speaker 2: know what I mean? And even playing with him, mate,

943
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 2: it's just unbelievable.

944
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 1: Was he Like, was he hero growing up?

945
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 2: Like? Were you definitely one of them? Yeah, Like you'd

946
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 2: always go in the backyard. I remember me and my

947
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 2: brothers playing in the backyard and then we used to

948
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 2: like stepping the Benji the Marshall.

949
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 1: Did you try the slip past?

950
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

951
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 1: What about the best blake you've played? Again? Someone you

952
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:56,279
Speaker 1: come up with?

953
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 2: God man, that he walked off. That guy is just

954
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 2: too good. Yeah. I'd say Desco obviously played with him

955
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 2: early in my career, but yeah, just like every time

956
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 2: I versed him, he's always been doing the s is

957
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:10,880
Speaker 2: strong and.

958
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 3: He's that big across the that year very Italian that Yeah,

959
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 3: that year that you played with him before he ran

960
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 3: to the Roosters, he was like untouchable, unbelievable.

961
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:22,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I think it was his he's had. I

962
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:25,479
Speaker 1: mean he's had unbelievable years since then, but I think

963
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 1: like that year for the Tigers just before he left,

964
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: it was some of the stuff he was doing. It

965
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,240
Speaker 1: was like his highlights from that. He's crazy.

966
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's when he sort of just started

967
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,000
Speaker 2: playing origin in that as well, and just yeah, he

968
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 2: was unbelievable.

969
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: Who manages you tually? So you'll stay at the club.

970
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: The teammate you're closest with it, come close with all the.

971
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 2: Boys, like I get it wrong, really well with all

972
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 2: the boys. But I mean, obviously you know, he's been

973
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 2: there some of my highest moments, some of my lowest moments.

974
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 2: And yeah, built a really good connection even with his family,

975
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:01,839
Speaker 2: his mummy's dad and my wife and we're all sort

976
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 2: of close to each other now.

977
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:07,359
Speaker 3: And tally, what about mate, the teammate. If you're going

978
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,319
Speaker 3: on a long haul flight, who's the one that if

979
00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,240
Speaker 3: you come and sat next to you went, oh fuck.

980
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 2: Tito. Yeah yeah, And that's imagine you're going to the

981
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 2: fourteen now sitting next to him and he's just in

982
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:22,200

00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 3: whether it be sledging, whatever reason that you just go

987
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 3: fuck this guy. Not not that you dislike them, but

988
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 3: every time you come up against me, go, man, it's

989
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 3: going to be hard work today, Like he's going to

990
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:47,320
Speaker 3: be sledging and everything.

991
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: M h oh, go on, what aret you coops? Anyone

992
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:52,279
Speaker 1: stick out?

993
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,320
Speaker 2: Probably mahoney, read money.

994
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 1: Niggling.

995
00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,359
Speaker 2: If you drop a ball, he's just coming across. And yeah,

996
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 2: but he's a really good bloke off the field. Actually

997
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 2: I'm off the field, but yeah, little things like that.

998
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 2: But even just watching him sometimes you can just tell

999
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 2: people just get an yeah.

1000
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: Sledging much of a thing, mate, It should be fair.

1001
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: I can't even remember the last time I was. I

1002
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: was well, I haven't played in a while, but I

1003
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: wasn't getting sledged much when I was playing. Maybe they

1004
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:19,840
Speaker 1: felt sorry for me. I don't know.

1005
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:21,400
Speaker 2: I think they feel sorry for me.

1006
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,840
Speaker 1: Anyone you come up against you when man, this guy's.

1007
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 4: One person I'll tell you what twilight he was on

1008
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 4: the field. There's one person who was on my team

1009
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:35,239
Speaker 4: who I would hate to be against, Tyson Gamble. So

1010
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,800
Speaker 4: round two and twenty twenty three we played the Tigers.

1011
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,560
Speaker 4: In this game, everyone was getting into KP got knocked out.

1012
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 2: Oh it was a crazy game.

1013
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,760
Speaker 4: And I remember so Tyson Gamble come from the Broncos

1014
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 4: for the first time and lovely bloke, right. We all

1015
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 4: expected him to be a bit of a rap bag,

1016
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 4: but he was that nice and quiet. We're like, oh,

1017
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 4: maybe it was just at the Broncos, Like he doesn't

1018
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 4: really do it here at Newcastle whatever. He came off

1019
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 4: the bench that day for KP because he was playing fourteen,

1020
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 4: put up a bomb to the novice and I swear

1021
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 4: to God, the words that come out of his mouth

1022
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:10,640
Speaker 4: I'll never be able to repeat. And the whole team

1023
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 4: like looked at him and went, fuck, where's this bloke been?

1024
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 2: The whole persons.

1025
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, but yeah, Like that's one player I would hate

1026
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:19,919
Speaker 4: to be on his bad side opposite him.

1027
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 1: One that was on our side who used to sledge

1028
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 1: horrendously at training and on the field, Will Chambers. Chamber

1029
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 1: was the most relentless sledge I've ever seen. One time

1030
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:34,439
Speaker 1: he got suspended for five weeks and like he came over,

1031
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: you know on the training side, it's like the NRL

1032
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 1: side and then the boys who aren't playing and they

1033
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,280
Speaker 1: prepared the NRL side. So he was playing my center

1034
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,839
Speaker 1: in the non NRL side preparing during the week and

1035
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 1: the job of that team is to basically you challenging

1036
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 1: the NRL side, but you're just preparing them to play

1037
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 1: good on the weekend. Chambers took it upon himself to

1038
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:56,759
Speaker 1: like emasculate everyone on the NRL side, so that they

1039
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,400
Speaker 1: went into the game with no confidence and they were

1040
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 1: the worst players and the like to the point where

1041
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: he was because he was a senior player and like

1042
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 1: was so tight with belly.

1043
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 5: He was also he was saying, like, mate, they don't

1044
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,880
Speaker 5: rate you're here and that, like saying ship like that

1045
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 5: the teammates mate. He was so funny and then he'd

1046
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 5: give us. He'd give us infant like when we're playing

1047
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 5: Queensland Cut. He'd find out dirt on players, the opposition

1048
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 5: players in the Queensland Cut that we're playing against, and go,

1049
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 5: here's some stuff I found on this player if you

1050
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 5: want to go after him.

1051
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 1: We were like, holy ship. He was the best I've

1052
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,719
Speaker 1: ever seen and he was so good at it. He

1053
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 1: put people off their game so much.

1054
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 2: Similar yeah, oh yeah. He used to just like gound

1055
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 2: the field and just yeah, just say some personal stuff

1056
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 2: to blokes. I was playing with some blokes at the

1057
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 2: time and he's just other the stuff he say, you

1058
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:45,360
Speaker 2: wouldn't you wouldn't say, you know what I mean, And

1059
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:45,839
Speaker 2: he just.

1060
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 3: Man, what about like your favorite field in the league?

1061
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 3: Feel yeah, field opposition, Yeah, traveling.

1062
00:46:56,840 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 2: Favorite probably Bank West, best part of the East.

1063
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 1: What about least favorite field the place he.

1064
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 2: Or New Zealand. Every time we go to New Zealand.

1065
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,440
Speaker 1: It's it's a hard game to players.

1066
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 3: Always wet as and cold and hard to get a

1067
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:13,560
Speaker 3: purchase on the ball.

1068
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. And then Towns.

1069
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's sweaty up in town. Like they hit you

1070
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 1: around the ball, you just drop it.

1071
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:22,400
Speaker 3: This is so hard at first coming to the competition,

1072
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 3: right first time we ever played up there. We walk

1073
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 3: in and we go, oh, yeah, like you know, you're

1074
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:31,160
Speaker 3: in an air condition bus, hotel, into the air condition bus.

1075
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 3: You got off the bus and you go straight into

1076
00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:36,239
Speaker 3: the dressing room was air conditioned, and I'm thinking, fact,

1077
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:38,800
Speaker 3: this is okay. Then we go out for our normal

1078
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 3: twenty to twenty five minute warm up. Mate, we come

1079
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,319
Speaker 3: back in and we're just completely fucked. It took us

1080
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 3: a long while and to actually understand how we had

1081
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:47,319
Speaker 3: to play it that week.

1082
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,800
Speaker 1: Going north is actually like it's harder. People think playing

1083
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 1: in the rains hard when you go north and it's

1084
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,759
Speaker 1: dry and the sweat gets on the ball, sweat, it's

1085
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 1: way worse than water. That's funny because I'm a real

1086
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: big here. I reckon in hot, humid conditions the leather

1087
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: ball was better. It's really funny the leather ball. When

1088
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,399
Speaker 1: when a little bit of moisture went on the leather ball,

1089
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:13,480
Speaker 1: it actually become more tacky. But I mean if I

1090
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 1: was pissing down a completely different piece, but I think

1091
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 1: the synthetic ball would sweat. It's actually slips. Yeah, it's

1092
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 1: such an advantage for those teams out there who practice

1093
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,480
Speaker 1: it all the time. I remember when in COVID when

1094
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,880
Speaker 1: we were playing at Sunshine We're based out of Sunshine

1095
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 1: Coast and Storm was playing Cowboys and this is a

1096
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,400
Speaker 1: famous story. All the boys tell it to bag out

1097
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,279
Speaker 1: Monster all the time. And Munster like he's known for

1098
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 1: saying ship before he even thinks about it, and he

1099
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:41,600
Speaker 1: always wants to have the last word in like right

1100
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:46,759
Speaker 1: before warm up and always I always don't know why

1101
00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:48,720
Speaker 1: he wanted to the boys going right out of towns

1102
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,320
Speaker 1: all day. Let's you know, take him into a grind,

1103
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: will beat him in the back end of the game.

1104
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:54,440
Speaker 1: They want to do the flashy stufflet's do it. And

1105
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 1: Monster right before he goes bloody oath boys, he goes

1106
00:48:57,719 --> 00:48:59,799
Speaker 1: and guess what, it's too bloody hot for him up here.

1107
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,440
Speaker 1: They can't handle the heat and everyone just went so

1108
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 1: they've come down from Townsville.

1109
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,040
Speaker 3: Oh, who's a bloke in the shed like that? That

1110
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:15,719
Speaker 3: always hit the last word. I'll probably say my mad

1111
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 3: funny with everyone gets in that mood to let people know.

1112
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 3: In a dressing room, it's all different characters and there's

1113
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 3: nothing worse before the game when everyone starts to talk

1114
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,400
Speaker 3: and it's like everyone and everyone's gone, and remember and

1115
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:31,680
Speaker 3: remember this, we're a bloken outside. I'm not going to

1116
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,080
Speaker 3: say who he is because it highly embarrassing for him.

1117
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 3: We're playing one day and the coaches left two minute warning,

1118
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,919
Speaker 3: ready to go, and everyone goes and the chief Paul

00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:46,880
Speaker 1: And this blake said, yeah, I have.

00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 1: Do you go there a lot?

1164
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:40,400
Speaker 2: No, I've been there once where it was crackout like

1165
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:41,800
Speaker 2: it's probably my favorite place i've been. I've been in

1166
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:42,880
Speaker 2: Europe of stuffs that since.

1167
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 1: But crazy that city built in the desert. Remember when

1168
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:50,239
Speaker 1: we then did you go to the Is it the Atlantis?

1169
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: That big water park there the water park?

1170
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:56,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's a new hotel Atlans now app it's unbelievable,

1171
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:57,440
Speaker 2: but they just built it.

1172
00:51:57,960 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 1: More and more people are moving there.

1173
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 2: The water park was cracked when we.

1174
00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:04,279
Speaker 1: Said, O mate, yeah, we went Dad. Dad went down

1175
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,320
Speaker 1: this water slide. We were too young to go on

1176
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 1: the water like as a weight limit was like a

1177
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:10,239
Speaker 1: height limit, and Dad went down on his own and

1178
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:14,799
Speaker 1: it's the one where they said we're come on. It's

1179
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,359
Speaker 1: one of the ones where the floor goes out from

1180
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,480
Speaker 1: underneath you and you jet through and you go through

1181
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:19,399
Speaker 1: like the shark tank.

1182
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:20,719
Speaker 2: That's where I went. I went to that one in

1183
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 2: the air that's crazy.

1184
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:24,399
Speaker 1: Dad come down, that'd say that ship down.

1185
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 2: You have to walk up all them stairs. Yes, I

1186
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 2: was walking up and walking down. I think the only

1187
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:32,320
Speaker 2: way you can come down is through the slide. But

1188
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:33,920
Speaker 2: then when I when I got up the top, I

1189
00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:39,520
Speaker 2: realized everyone's walking because they've seen like it's dangerous.

1190
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:42,839
Speaker 1: Because you're free fall. It's a he It's like there's

1191
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 1: there's no rules over there. So you actually don't trust

1192
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:47,560
Speaker 1: you know, like you got to water park here, you

1193
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 1: trust the ride. Yeah, because they're not going to hurt me.

1194
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:51,879
Speaker 1: Here in Dubai, it's kind of like.

1195
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:52,880
