1 00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:05,840 Speaker 1: This is the official Super Coach NRL podcast Game Day Preview. 2 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 2: Hello super Coaches, and welcome to our Game Day Preview podcast. 3 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 2: It's round twenty one, the Head to Ad Finals just 4 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,440 Speaker 2: around the corner, and we have a huge guest on 5 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 2: the show today. It is Mark Barnes, the barn Stormer, 6 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 2: currently in fourth spot in Supercoach. 7 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 3: What's been your secret so far? 8 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: Oh jeez, that's a pretty long long answer. I'll try 9 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,279 Speaker 1: and make it short for you. I think I've done 10 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: a few things differently than last year and certainly previous years. 11 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: One of them I reckon that's really helped me, which 12 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: sounds not very smart from super Coach logic, is front 13 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: row Ford. I just went, it looks terrible. I don't 14 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: want to do much with it. And did the same 15 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 1: with Hooker and five eight. So my Hooker and five 16 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: eight was the same for the first few months of 17 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: the year. I just didn't any trades there and then 18 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: upgraded and I were going okay, and front row Ford 19 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: looked awful, and I just for three months went it 20 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 1: doesn't matter, it looks bad. I don't reckon the points 21 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: upsides there, and I just left it. And that's that. 22 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 4: With a lot of luck has been really helpful. 23 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I'll use the exact same tactic in the 24 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 2: front row. And my front row still looks disgusting and 25 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: I'm hoping to fix that up over the next couple 26 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: of weeks. I just want to hit you up quickly 27 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 2: with a couple of little pod picks for the run home. 28 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 3: Who do you think? 29 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: Look, I think my favorite one who is a real 30 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: struggle even for me to try and get in, is 31 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: Brian too, and that's why he's such a good pick. 32 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: He's over eight hundred and fifty thousand dollars, so it's 33 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: a massive investment. But we all know the Panther's great 34 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: run home and he's around that ten percent mark, and 35 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: I think because of the price, he's still going to 36 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: stay really low and that's going to be beneficial for 37 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: anyone that's got the trades and the money to be 38 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: able to do it. So Brian Tye is probably my favorite. 39 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: And if you can't afford it, I reckon you can 40 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: go to the other wing. Taruva. He has shown an 41 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: ability to go big. He's still young, and he's got 42 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: a good draw there and he just seems to get 43 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: tries on that side and we know that Brian Tyer 44 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily always get the tries, but three of it does, 45 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: so he'll get some doubles on the way home with 46 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: that draw. So I quite like those, and then it's 47 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: really hard for the other ones. I mean, someone in 48 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: the fullback spot that I think will become more highly 49 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: owned but isn't at the moment, is going to be 50 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: Kaylan Ponger. When he hits that game in a few 51 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,679 Speaker 1: weeks where he plays the West Tigers, that's going to 52 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: be an opportune in time to get him in and 53 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: three point five percent ownership around about the moment, does 54 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: he get well over ten percent? Not sure because a 55 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: lot of people will be set on their fullbacks are 56 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: out of trades. 57 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 3: Yep. 58 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 2: I love the Bryan to opick particularly, and pretty much 59 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 2: no one can do it unless you've got big trades 60 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 2: or you've got big money, so it makes him even 61 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 2: more of a pod. Kaylen Ponger, for sure in a 62 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 2: couple of weeks, got the buy this week and the 63 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 2: big break even, so he's a guy to keep up 64 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 2: your sleeve. But I currently have Teddy and Turbo in 65 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 2: that position with not many trades left, so I think 66 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: I'm going to have to run to the end, to 67 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 2: the end of the season with those two. Send three 68 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 2: your questions, guys. We've got them cranking here on Facebook Live, 69 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 2: so send them through and we'll get to them very shortly. 70 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: Burning issues for this weekend Nathan Cleary, First of all, 71 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 2: are you bringing him in? Second of all, who are 72 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 2: you selling? Which I think is probably the bigger question 73 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 2: it sure is. 74 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: If you're not bringing in Nathan Cleary, I'm going to 75 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: assume you're one of the ghost teams that stop playing 76 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: because you've got upset with Zip Coach. You've got to 77 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: be bringing in Nathan Cleary. There is no other answer 78 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: to that. The only question that you need to ask 79 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: yourself is who you're going to trade instead, And to me, 80 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: there's several options. I would always, especially on the run home, 81 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: prioritize guys who you're either going to sell down the 82 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: track anyway, or that you don't want to be playing, 83 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: and that makes it a lot easier. So, for instance, Wisharp, 84 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: I think is an easy sell. Even in Monster doesn't 85 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: play this week, he's got a sixty break, even he's 86 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: going to be gone next week, you're going to have 87 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: to sell him anyway, So do it now. Aiden Campbell's 88 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: a bit more controversial, and you've got to basically ask 89 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: yourself whether you believe in him or not. Five game 90 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: average of ninety five while he's been starting six is 91 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: very good. If you wanted to argue, keep in sure. 92 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: But otherwise, if you're going to sell him over eight 93 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars, now you actually make money off that trade, 94 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: which is amazing. And Dylan Brown is my one that 95 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: I'm doing though there's just he's averaging okay for the season, 96 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: but he's gone eighty plus three times. I don't see 97 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: that he was getting better. In fact, I said him 98 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: getting worse, even though his averages around about the same 99 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: within a point of Moses being there or not. I 100 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: just don't think they're going to be very competitive and 101 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: their draws not great. So do I want to play 102 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: Dylan Brown on the run home? 103 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 3: No? 104 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 4: I don't, so I may as well trade him. Yep. 105 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: I agree with the Dylan Brown trade. Unfortunately, I still 106 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 2: have Cody Walker in my team, so he's the one 107 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 2: who's going to go for Nathan Cleary for me, which 108 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: I think is pretty obvious trade. 109 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 4: Really, I'm keeping him. I've got Cody. I'm going to keep. 110 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: Cody because I mean his draws pretty good and he's 111 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 2: got obviously no buyers. They probably won't rest players in 112 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: the run home. Are you keeping Cody? 113 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: I mean it's basically him more or Dylan Brown. And 114 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: I just feel like Cody has more chance of getting 115 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: a bigger score. And I feel like Cody is the 116 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: type of guy who if you play him against bad teams. 117 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 1: He's got the Tigers coming up, you know that's a 118 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: matchup I want the house players for, whereas I look 119 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: at the Eels and go I don't really want to 120 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: play Dylan Brown against anyone like he could play the 121 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: team in sixteenth and still not go very well. So 122 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: I just want to I want Cody for the matchups. 123 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: But the biggest thing, I'll leave you with this number, 124 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: Tommy thirty two percent ownership on Dylan Brown, and I 125 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: think that Cody is hovering around that ten percent mark. 126 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 4: So he makes a big populce. 127 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: What about the other Walker? Sam Walker very popular sell 128 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 2: this week. He's got that buy coming up soon, which 129 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 2: I think is probably the biggest factor in why people 130 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 2: are selling your thoughts there. 131 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: Look, I don't want to have to put my Rooster's 132 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: hat on as a fan, so everyone just ignore the. 133 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: Fact Roosters fan on the sh But we've gotten rid 134 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: of Sutherland and then we get another Roosters fan. 135 00:05:58,760 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 4: Oh dear, now you've got another. 136 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 3: Look. 137 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: I love Semmie Walker. I got him in my side. 138 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: I would be in first place if not for him. 139 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: I actually accidentally benched him on Anzac Day for his 140 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy plus score, so I had a 141 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: few beers and stuff and worked out very badly. So 142 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: because of that, Sam He's got to stay my side 143 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: so I can get a one seventy plus out of him. 144 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: But being real about it, I think at the moment 145 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: in the short term, Sam Walker is not great, but 146 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: in the long term he's really good because that last 147 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: four weeks of the Rooster's draw is mint and I 148 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: think that people are going to want Sam Walker for 149 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: that and he's just got such a good ceiling. So 150 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: to me, a lot of people are deciding between Jerome 151 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: Hughes and Sam Walker, and if you're doing that, I 152 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: think Jerome Hughes is a play to keep for the 153 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: immediate and if you're looking down the track on the 154 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: last month at Sam Walker if you want to look 155 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: long term. 156 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 2: Same three questions and comments, guys, I'm loading them up now. 157 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 2: There's currently no questions in so if you hit us 158 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 2: with a question now, it will one hundred percent get 159 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 2: answered quickly. 160 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 3: On Harry Grant, what are your. 161 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: Thoughts on him at the hooker position? I know you 162 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 2: mentioned that it's not really a position to be targeting 163 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 2: this year. He's got that Sternham injury, which seems to 164 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 2: be okay now, like he backed up after Origin even 165 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 2: though it seemed to be a bit of an issue. 166 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 3: Thoughts on him. 167 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: As a starting hooker for the run home even though 168 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 2: he could get rested at any point with the Sternham 169 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: injury plus the storm of basically said that they're going 170 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: to rest players in round twenty six, so not in 171 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 2: around twenty seven because they've got to travel in there. 172 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 2: I think they're going to the Cowboys up in Townsville 173 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 2: at some stage. So they've said that they're going to 174 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: rest their players or so Brandon Smith said in a 175 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,559 Speaker 2: podcast that they're going to rest players in around twenty 176 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 2: six and not twenty seven. Around twenty six is the 177 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 2: head to head finals? 178 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 4: Do we trust the cheese? I don't know a look. 179 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: I started with Robson, I've still got Robson, and when 180 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: Denny Levy topped out the goat of the hooker position, 181 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: I ended up trading him out to Harry Grant when 182 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: Grant was cheap and just went now I'm. 183 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 4: Set for the year. 184 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: I think if people have two hookers, it doesn't make 185 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: sense to get granted at the moment with all the 186 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: other options. But if you're running one hooker, or you 187 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: know your hooker is pretty bad, then I do still 188 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: think that Grant's an option because with Grants, one of 189 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: the things that's really interesting is two out of the 190 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: last three weeks Sry to our last three years, he's 191 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: best scoring average. When you break up the season in 192 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: the thirds, he's on the run home. So last year 193 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: actually averaged eighties between round nineteen and twenty six, and 194 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: that was still his lowest minutes average of the year too, 195 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: so it didn't matter that he was getting spells and 196 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: rested a little bit. So I think because hooker doesn't 197 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: have that many great standout options aside from I Flatrell 198 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: stays out and Damian Cook kicks for the rest of 199 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: the year, then I do think that there's an option 200 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: to get grand In. I will just throw out there 201 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: if you want to get him. He scored one one 202 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: seventeen one sixteen two tries against the Eels in round 203 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: eight and the Eels are a lot more competitive then 204 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 1: than what they are now, so it's an opportunity time 205 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: to maybe get him. 206 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 2: Heaps of questions have just dropped in to hear your 207 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 2: thoughts on this from Chris thoughts on Isaac tang Or. 208 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 2: I was expecting more for him from him rather when 209 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 2: Nathan Cleary came back last week. 210 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 3: He was okay. He looked better with Cleary in the team. 211 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: But also in that side, you've got Casey McClain, who's 212 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 2: by farther cheapy of the week, plus you've got Taruva 213 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 2: who you mentioned, and then Brian too. If you've actually 214 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 2: got some cash, he's probably the I'd say that at 215 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 2: least the second or third guy i'd be looking at 216 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 2: in those outside backs at that club. 217 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: I need to measure my response so I don't seem 218 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: like a tongue o hater. He is the worst player 219 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: in that Panthers team to buy in my opinion, and 220 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that lightly. 221 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 4: We have to put it all into context. 222 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: Tommy at the start of the year, when he actually 223 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: scored well, he was beating up on slow second rowers 224 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: who he ended careers of slow second rowers. But when 225 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: he's up against centers, he's scored terrible. So I think 226 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: that the stats all say it's bad, and then you 227 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: go to the eye test and the eye test says well. 228 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,839 Speaker 1: I actually think if the Panthers had the depth that 229 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: they've had in prior years, Brian Tunga would have found 230 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 1: himself in hisself as cup. They just don't, so he's 231 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: gotten a bit lucky. I don't see him turning it around. 232 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: He's just too many thirties and forties and just not 233 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: worth it. And Casey McLain you mentioned he will chat 234 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: about probably later. He's probably better and he's half the price, 235 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: so yeah, I couldn't possibly look at him. 236 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: Casey McLain at cheapy price is really hard to turn down. 237 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 3: Thoughts. 238 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: We've got lots of questions about Casey mc McLain, lots 239 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: of love for you bring home. 240 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 4: The cash, Thanks everybody. 241 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 2: I've got a question asking can you still win the 242 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 2: cash even though you're on the podcast? Yes you can. 243 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 2: I can confirm that bonus now and we'll go quickly 244 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 2: to Brown or Galvin to clearing. Surely wouldn't be selling 245 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: Lachlan Galvin in his current form. 246 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: I said this a week ago on the Inner All 247 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: Stars podcast, and I said it the week before it 248 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: as well, and it was a. 249 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 4: Bit controversial at the time. I think that people come 250 00:10:59,080 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 4: around on it. 251 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: I said at the time, I much prefer Lucky Galvin 252 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: for the run home than when I do Dylan Brown. 253 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: Gavin scored one hundred plus multiple times this year. He's 254 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: gone eighty plus, way more than Dylan Brown, and he's 255 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: actually got upside. Like the Tigers are already last, they're 256 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: not going to get any worse, and he's still out 257 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: perform Brown. So the only way is up. And because 258 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: being a young guy that they want to develop, he's 259 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 1: only going to either keep producing or get better. So 260 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,719 Speaker 1: he's got all the upside against Dylan Brown, and I'm 261 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: keeping him one hundred percent over Dylan Brown. 262 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 2: I'm quickly going to mention our code deal at the moment, 263 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 2: it's a dollar for the first month. You've got head 264 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 2: to head finals coming up. Just test it out for 265 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,959 Speaker 2: a month to see how it goes.

And 269 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 2: I can tell you that the churn rate on that 270 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 2: is very very low. Once people get on it, they 271 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 2: stay on it. And I honestly don't even know how 272 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 2: he can be a serious supercoach without Supercoach Plus. 273 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 3: I'm assuming you've got it, of course. Yeah, nice little plug. 274 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 2: There now browd Tabs Best Bet of the Week brought 275 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 2: to you by the Tabs enterl same game multi build, 276 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 2: smartest same game multis using stats and insights. 277 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 3: Download the tab app today. 278 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 2: Now we had a little discussion before the show started. 279 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 2: The Bulldogs are only paying are paying three dollars twenty 280 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 2: five for the win against the Broncos. The Bulldogs are 281 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 2: sixth on the ladder. The Broncos are twelve or eleventh 282 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 2: or something. 283 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 4: One of the best defenses too. 284 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 2: I find I find that crazy, even though it is 285 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 2: at sun Corps Stadium. So I've got them to win 286 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 2: plus with Willi Army kickout to score a try, hopefully 287 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: marking up against Kobe Heatherington on an edge there so 288 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: it could be a good chance to score a try. 289 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 3: It's paying ten bucks yourself. 290 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to stick stop show with my roosters. So 291 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: last time I was on the show, am my twenty 292 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 1: three to one roosters bet that came in. So I'm 293 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: going to just keep righting the streak. Sydney roosters minus 294 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 1: five and a half points against me, Dom Young to 295 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 1: score first and also two tries Seemi Walker eight points. 296 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: He's going to get fifteen to one on that and 297 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: I absolutely love it. 298 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 2: Yep, you're a bit more wilder than me, that's sure. 299 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 2: But you definitely got up last time. And Dave Campbell 300 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 2: hasn't shut up about since what is gambling really costing you? 301 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 2: For free and confidential support called the number on screen 302 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 2: or visit the website Gambling help online dot org dot 303 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 2: au cheap your Bible. So you mentioned him before, Casey McClain, 304 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 2: he's in for me this week. I don't think enufs 305 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 2: are the way to go right now. I already have 306 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 2: a lot of non players in my team. Plus I 307 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 2: have Joe Chan, Plus I have Daddy Levi, who I 308 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 2: don't quite trust. As aes I can't really use the 309 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 2: loophole anyway, so I may as well get a proper 310 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 2: cheapy in and Casey McClain is that guy. 311 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 4: I like it. I like it a lot. 312 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: Normally at this point of the season, we don't get 313 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: somebody as good as Casey McLain as a downgrade. He 314 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: hits at the perfect time, and this normally doesn't happen. 315 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: He's hitting a great or, he's playing for one of 316 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: the top teams, and he's also got a pretty good 317 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 1: floor too. His floors better than Toungo's floor is and 318 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: only bottom dollar. It's a great downgrade option if you've 319 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: got trades or you can't use them right because you 320 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 1: don't have the money. You can downgrade him and he 321 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: might out perform half a your cent of wings on 322 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: the run home at the moment. So I'm one hundred 323 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: percent with your tom. I don't think that it's enough season. 324 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: I've got twenty four and a quarter players playing because 325 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: Poassa can only be a quarter order for when he 326 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: does play, he's still out their quarter. But yeah, I 327 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: think that this year you've used the word carnage many 328 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: times and it's warranted. You need the depth otherwise you're 329 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: going to struggle on the run home, especially with low trades. 330 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's going to be some big restings in the 331 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 2: run home for sure, particularly from those top sides like 332 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 2: the Panthers, Roosters, Storm. You think a whole bunch of 333 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 2: those guys get rested, and it may not all happen 334 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: in that final round. It might happen sort of spread 335 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 2: out over those final few rounds. So you do need 336 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 2: to keep a decent squad of players together. Jackson perdu 337 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 2: is a guy who's I love on the eye test. 338 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 2: I can't quite try to quite trust him this week 339 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: as a buye given that they've got Tower Lungey going 340 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: back into that team and he's on the extended bench, 341 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 2: so I can't go there this week. But who knows, 342 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 2: he could end up in that seventeen even with too 343 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 2: Lungy coming back into the team. So look, it's too 344 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 2: risky when you've got McLain there. If McClain wasn't around, 345 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people would be looking at perdue. 346 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: Eighty k difference as well, and that's probably the key 347 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: figure there. One's bottom dollar, the other's not, and one's 348 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: in the best team too. So yeah, I think in 349 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: other weeks perdue might have been more interesting, but just 350 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: in a case of McClain week, I couldn't go there. 351 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 2: A couple of questions coming through. Matthew is asking RTS 352 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 2: or the Hammer. RTS back at fullback this week, which 353 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 2: is kind of enticing, but the Hammer got no buyers left. 354 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: Arts has got that buy in think around twenty seven. 355 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 2: I think it is yeah, laste of the season. I'd 356 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 2: be going Hammer. 357 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 4: Yeah. I think it's probably closer than what it should be. 358 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: It has to be said that RTS may very well 359 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: go out of fullback after this week, so you might 360 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: only get one week, but it is a good week 361 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: where he plays the Tigers in New Zealand. So I 362 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: think if you've got a lot of trades that it 363 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: makes sense just to take a rental on RTS, especially 364 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: the next two weeks, Like even if he leaves fullback 365 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: and goes to the wing. 366 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 4: I like him on the wing a lot. 367 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: He's scored seventies and eighties the last couple of weeks, 368 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: and one of those the first score was on the wing, 369 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: So I actually really like the RTS pod. Everyone's bringing 370 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: in the Hammer at the moment. Top ten most popular 371 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: trade in No one's bringing in RTS. So if you 372 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: need one hundred grand difference and you want a POD, 373 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: I'd choose RTS. If that's not a big concern for 374 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: you and your team, then I'd go hammer. 375 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 2: Pete is asking what's to bring in McLain, Do you 376 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 2: sell to Lungey or Hero, And I've actually got this 377 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 2: exact issue this week, and it's a tough call. I'm 378 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 2: leaning towards selling ta Lungey right now, but there's also 379 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 2: a massive chance that Tulanga gets moved to fullback at 380 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 2: some stage because they've essentially said that that's where he 381 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 2: plays in the future. At that club, he was at fullback. 382 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 2: He's a starting player for you in Super Coach every week. 383 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 2: Whereas Eero, he's got a lot to lug, he's got 384 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: a good base, hasn't got the attacking stats so far 385 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 2: this year, but they've got an amazing run home, so 386 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: he could easily get those attacking stats. 387 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think we saw an inkling in that 388 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 4: last game. 389 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 1: Eo scored seventy eight points, got some attacking stats and 390 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: he did it really easily. I would sell to Lungey 391 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: because I think one of the things that I've done 392 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: this season that I've not done in other seasons is 393 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: I really looked for the now and not tried to. 394 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 4: Base stuff off what might happen in a month's time. 395 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: And that makes a big difference because we don't have 396 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 1: much of the season left. Tom So if you get 397 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: to lug in the last couple of weeks of the season, 398 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 1: and that's why you're not going to trade him now, 399 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: it's not that helpful. And iro Ero, sorry, I think 400 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: is pretty likely to get a stats West the Cowboy 401 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: is there one of the worst defenses in the NRL, 402 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: even though it's up in Townsville. I still think that 403 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: that euro side is going to get good ball and potential. 404 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,120 Speaker 1: So I would trade Blaze as well. 405 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 2: Yep, Blaze is going for me this week onto the 406 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 2: no go zone. This is the player or the trade 407 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 2: that you think people shouldn't be doing this week. Me, 408 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 2: it's Adam Fanuel Blake. Now, I've owned him since very 409 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,479 Speaker 2: early in the season and we've seen a marked drop 410 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 2: off since he signed to leave the club and since 411 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,479 Speaker 2: he got suspended for that one week for not rocking up, 412 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 2: not bothering to turn up into the sheds for the Warriors. 413 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 2: It has been pretty significant. Then last week it went 414 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 2: bananas and scored a try, etc. So people are seeing 415 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 2: last week and not thinking about the couple of months 416 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 2: before that. I'd be avoiding Adam Vanuel Blake, going for 417 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: someone like Paynhas Mitch Barnett. 418 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 3: If you've got the money. 419 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a really hard one. 420 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 1: I've been really off a' been all a year, and 421 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 1: then he had that real purple pat I was glad 422 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: that I stayed off. 423 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 4: I can see it going either way. 424 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: I can see you being one hundred percent right on 425 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: it because he has shown let's say a fifty to 426 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: fifty attitude at times, even at mainly before so I 427 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: could see him packing his bag early and just leaving 428 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: him in the corner of the room for the last 429 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: four weeks of the season. 430 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 4: Made him leave. 431 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: But Topah Harris going down. He played almost seventy minutes 432 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 1: last game. If those minutes continue at five hundred and 433 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: ninety ode thousand, it does present value and probably alleviates 434 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: that risk a bit. So if he does go badly 435 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: and only average fifty five for the rest of the year, 436 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 1: I don't think the investment's at high So I could 437 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,120 Speaker 1: probably go either way on that one. 438 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 4: It's a tough one. 439 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 2: Look, I own him and I don't have enough trades 440 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 2: to sell. But he's certainly a guy that I'm worried about. 441 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 2: Who's your no goes on? 442 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: I'm super controversial here and I feel really bad about it. 443 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: I got Tom Dawoivitch in a couple of weeks ago 444 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: for his two tons, and I love the trade. But 445 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: to me, you know, two weeks is a long time 446 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 1: in supercoach Tom, and I actually don't love everyone trading 447 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: him in this week. Yes, he's got a minor thirty 448 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: break even, Yes it's going to be more expensive getting 449 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: later on, but the time for his fullback status as 450 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: the best guy to have was the last two weeks. 451 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 1: The likelihood for him to get another one hundred and 452 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 1: seventy plus score is slimmed. Tonne for the rest of 453 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,239 Speaker 1: the year, and he's going against the Roosters and then 454 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: got to buy. So the next two weeks you got 455 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: one game, it's a tough game away against the Roosters 456 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: at Alians. After that Shore he comes out and hits Cambro. 457 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: But at that point you have all these other fullback 458 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: options like Rees Walsh has a good run. Now could 459 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 1: do what Turbo did the last fortnight, and then you've 460 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: got guys like Kayln Ponger, who he said will be 461 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: coming really cheap, close to six hundred k potentially for 462 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: a Tigers matchup. So yeah, I just don't think it's 463 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: quite the right time for Tommy. I'd lay off him 464 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: this week. 465 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 3: Yep. 466 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 2: I'm a happy Tommy Turbo owner. And it's a good question. 467 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 2: It's a good point to bring this up as well, 468 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 2: because you look at the captaincy stakes this week, which 469 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 2: is our next segment. You've got Tom Chabovich at sixteen percent, 470 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 2: but he does have that tough matchup against the Roosters 471 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 2: and it's at alle Yards, whereas you've got James Tedesco 472 00:20:55,800 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 2: in that same game only at fourteen percent off a 473 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 2: bad week, which is generally when Teddy fires up the 474 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 2: next round, and it's at Alliance where he's got a 475 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 2: great record captain cy this week? 476 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 3: Are you going Teddy Turbo? 477 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: I could not possibly go near Turbo. I'm not interested 478 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: in Turbo at all. I do think that Teddy is 479 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: a smoky and this always happens in Super Coach. When 480 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,439 Speaker 1: someone really disappoints you, you don't want to reward them with. 481 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 4: The army Man the next week. 482 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: So Teddy got in the thirties last week and people 483 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: are really annoyed about it. Still, I think it's a 484 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: great it's a great option he's scored well against mainly 485 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,919 Speaker 1: in the past. It is at alliance. The Roosters have 486 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: got a point to prove and they do generally bounce back. 487 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: Whereas you look at Turbo, He's fourth worst average against 488 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: all the teams is the Roosters. He's opposition the Roosters 489 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: fourth worst average at a seventy and I just think 490 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 1: that he's beat up on some poor opposition last couple 491 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: of weeks and we're not going to see it as 492 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 1: well this week. So I'm definitely Teddy over Turbo. 493 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Turbo playing at home you just always captain him. 494 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 2: But away it's a little bit sketchy. And to this 495 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 2: go last week at that tough matchup as well against 496 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 2: the Storm in Melbourne, he's got a horrible record. 497 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 3: Against the Storm. 498 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a real bogie team, so I'm expecting him 499 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 2: to bounce back. The number one captain cy target this 500 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 2: week is Nathan Cleary forty six percent, and that's when 501 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 2: I wrote this yesterday. It's probably gone up since then. 502 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 2: Is like, do you antipod him? 503 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 3: Though? It's not that it's against. 504 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 2: The Dragons who and I'm a Dragons fan so I'm 505 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 2: completely biased. 506 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 3: They're not that bad this year. 507 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 2: They're coming ninth and it's at wind Stadium. 508 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 3: The wind is. 509 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 2: Going to be whipping off the Pacific Ocean like it's 510 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 2: it's not that easy a matchup compared to what he 511 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 2: had last week at home at Blue Bett Stadium, where 512 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 2: he's just got an amazing record. 513 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, do you remember what the rooster is? 514 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: He did the Dragons Anzactor because yeah. 515 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 3: That's Alion Steam. 516 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 1: What about the heartland of rugby league and the Dragons 517 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: and the Steelers. Look, I think you have to have 518 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,959 Speaker 1: a piece of Nathan Cleary, so you can't antipod him. 519 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: Why not going the captaincy. But what you can do, 520 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: which I think is a really smart move, is if 521 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 1: you don't have any good VC options and you've got 522 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: a loopable team, you can VC Cleary Because there are 523 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: teams that are set up quite well either or quite 524 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 1: well with good aes, or set up quite badly but 525 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 1: good for because they've only got like eighteen players or 526 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: something a VC Cleary could head your bets in because 527 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: you can make sure you hit Cleary. But also you know, 528 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,959 Speaker 1: if you've got fifty percent of super coaches missing out 529 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: on Cleary with a fifty five or something, you then 530 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: hedge your bets for one of those later games. So 531 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 1: I quite like that as the anti pod route. 532 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 2: Let's take questions till the end of the show. We've 533 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 2: got any interest in putting the Sea. 534 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 3: On Hammer against the Titans. It's risky. It's risky. 535 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 2: I mean, we've got some seriously good captaincy options of 536 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 2: this time of the year and this week in particular. 537 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 2: But I mean, Hamma was on fire last week. 538 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: Hat trick would not surprise me. But I did not 539 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: have the kahunas to put the Sea on Hammer, that's 540 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: for sure. Maybe at VC just to be a little 541 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: bit safe, but I tell you that sometimes you got 542 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: to risk it for the biscuit, as I say, and 543 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: the hammer can score tries in bunches and against the Titans, 544 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: it could very well happen. 545 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 2: Luckily he is saying, sorry, say from Luke will get 546 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 2: Adam Fanua Blake vice captain into Teddy as captain. I'm 547 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 2: not sure if Fana Blake quite as the upside for 548 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 2: a VC at this time of year, there was a 549 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 2: buy around. 550 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 3: You'd do it this week? 551 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I couldn't. I couldn't do it. 552 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: I'd rather go go other options that you've probably got 553 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: in your team there. I'm sure that you've got some 554 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: other ones. Even if if you're getting Cleary, you know 555 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: VC Teddy and then see Cleary. But if you're not 556 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 1: getting Cleary for whatever reason, I'd be looking at some 557 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 1: other VC options. 558 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 2: I think for the Jesse upside, we've got a person 559 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 2: riding in asking if they should sell Casey McClain for 560 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 2: Greg marsu getting rid of Greg Martin's on the buy 561 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 2: this week. With Ponger coming back into that team with 562 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 2: some good matchups, you would think that mars Hugh is 563 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 2: a guy to hold for the run home. 564 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: I think one of the most important things in Super 565 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 1: Coach is patients, and I think this is the time 566 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: to show patients. You know, you're not going to want 567 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: to be playing these guys every week. When Greg Marju 568 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: hits that Tiger's game, you're going to feel really bad 569 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: about selling him. So certainly in the next couple of 570 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 1: weeks it's going to be painful to have him just 571 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: sitting on the bench and not very useful because I 572 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: wouldn't play Himgast the Penrith Panthers obviously, but that Tiger's game. 573 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 4: There's some good matchups for the Knights on the run home. 574 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 4: They need to make the eight. 575 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: I quite like holding him, and I hope people do 576 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: sell because he's not highly owned, and you'll become a 577 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 1: real pod. 578 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 4: Yep. 579 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,919 Speaker 2: Well that is it for our game preview podcast. Obviously, 580 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,479 Speaker 2: no game tonight, but plenty coming up over the weekend. 581 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 2: Huge having you on with your wealth of knowledge coming forth, 582 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 2: and I can see why, to be honest, hopefully you 583 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 2: can storm home. 584 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 3: And get that fifty k. 585 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 1: Thanks very much, Tommy, and I've got a lot of 586 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: messages and stuff on the podcast and everything, so appreciate 587 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: the support from everyone. And I'll do my best, but 588 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: it's going to take a lot of luck and a 589 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: lot of stress. Probably, Yes, absolutely, catch the light of 590 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: goss 591 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 3: Mhmm.
