I cannot get into that app. 0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:34.080 I just have to avoid it as much as possible 0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:36.800 otherwise it to do my head in jet. Good to 0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:39.440 have you back, mate. How are your tips for Partners 0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:40.280 dot Com on the weekend? 0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:43.120 Good mate, tip to winner on Friday night eleven dollars. 0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:45.640 Didn't tip one the rest of the weekend. But it's 0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:49.440 all good. There's racing every day, so fine, you. 0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:52.000 Can make it up mid range madness, as I said, 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:53.519 But to start off, we're going to hit you with 0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:56.240 our hot take our part of the year from the 0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:58.720 mid range price bracket. 0:00:58.800 --> 0:00:59.240 Who are you. 0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:03.640 Thinking Tiger's Voyd, No surprise, Alex Safer four hundred and 0:01:03.680 --> 0:01:06.640 thirty five k He's he's a big one. Two point 0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:09.360 five percent ownerships are quite low average forty four last year. 0:01:09.360 --> 0:01:11.000 But he did play four games on an edge. 0:01:10.920 --> 0:01:13.640 Over sixty minutes where Tommy average sixty nine point three 0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:15.960 in those four games base of forty nine and a 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:16.720 half as well. 0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:18.160 So good floor average thirty eight. 0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:20.960 Tackles a game outside of Lockie Galvin, which I think 0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:22.960 is oppositive. People are going to about Luai, but you 0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:25.039 expect more defensive pressure to be going to Lewis side, 0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:26.680 which could open up a spot for Safar. 0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:29.039 Very good. I don't mind that at all. And your 0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:32.560 sneaky pod comes in at what zero zero? 0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:33.759 Now do you there? 0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:35.760 Two and a half zero per cent ownership from the 0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:38.760 Warriors Ali Leott Tower, He's just like it. 0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:40.760 He's a big, powerful outside back. 0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:43.160 He debuted against Penrith at Magic Ground last year when 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:45.880 the Warriors got the win, scored a try pints out 0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:48.880 sixty five. Two other big scores that year a few 0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:52.240 outside backs leaving Roger positional change. Maybe he's obviously a 0:01:52.280 --> 0:01:53.880 wait and see to see if he gets named. But 0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:56.040 a zero p cent ownerships. 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:55.960 One I want. 0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:57.760 Yeah, I really like him. I can't believe he's actually 0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:00.400 at zero percent ownership. My one's a few a bit 0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:04.720 above that zero percent ownership bracket. It's Tyrone Munroe, so 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:09.560 big season with injuries last year, but in games where 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.400 he played eighty minutes, he averaged almost sixty scored a 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:15.720 try a game. They've got Cody Walker back at five eight, 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:18.399 which I think suits what suits all the rabbit os. 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:20.640 We've got Wayn Bennett back at the club. They've got 0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:24.200 Latrell Mitchell hopefully fit and firing, so I think it 0:02:24.200 --> 0:02:27.040 could be a lot of tries for Tyrone Monroe this year. 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:28.440 You've also got Alex Johnson. It could be out for 0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:29.839 the first month, so if he's played on that left 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:32.079 which we know south to just hammer that left hand side, 0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:34.440 that sixty could could very well be surpassed. 0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:35.959 Yep, That's what I'm hoping for. And they don't have 0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:38.440 a buy it till pretty late as well. Also, your 0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:40.880 mid range no go the guy to avoid from the 0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:41.480 start of the year. 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:45.320 Yet mine is cooler Kefu Finny fool Archy. He's very 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:47.080 popular at the moment, and there's just a lot of 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:50.880 our of edges there At Recliff. You've got Felicie Cathusi, 0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:53.639 who's gonna switch from the middle to the outside backs. 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:56.520 You've alsoly got Cannelli Lemouelo, who's done a job at 0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:58.800 Redcliffe the last few years and apparently they've been switching 0:02:58.800 --> 0:02:59.280 at training. 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:01.720 I worry you with cooler kefe Is. 0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:03.760 He comes off the bench in that twenty minute role 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:05.639 just an a nightman that you can't get out of 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:06.000 his side. 0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:07.720 So he's the one I'm going to be avoiding. 0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:10.200 Yeah, he'd have to be starting and playing eighty minutes 0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:12.600 for me to consider him because he's PPM and work 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:15.359 rate well, I love watching him play. You're not really 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.520 a proper super coach player. A huge word crate. Who's 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:18.959 your no go? 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:21.359 Mine's at thirteen percent, so quite popular. 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.480 Neurocup Blaze Ta Lenge five hundred and sixty two K 0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:26.359 no doubt he's a phenomenal talent. 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:28.640 Let's not get that. You know, mistaken. 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:31.000 But Jerome Luay in his last five seasons has gone 0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:33.600 sixty two, fifty nine, fifty six, fifty eight and fifty 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:36.840 nine Blazers priced at that Louais arguably is the best 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.160 six in the world. You're gonna have to, you know, 0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.760 surpass Lewis's output by a fair way, and I just 0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:43.360 don't think he's going to get that role to start 0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:44.880 the season. But he could be a guy that we 0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:47.080 talk about after the Buyers when he's bottomed out at 0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:48.320 say three eighty to four hundred k. 0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:50.480 I reckon once he gets famil with that pendusyst and 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:51.840 he could be picking it up. But no, go for 0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:52.280 a round one. 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:54.640 Yeah, I agree, no going for a round one on him. 0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:57.560 I'm not sure five eight might be his best position 0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.520 in NRL. I don't think it is his best position. Coach, 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:03.040 he'd probably want him at center, maybe even on the wing. 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:05.320 Certainly our fullback would be good, but that's going to 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:07.200 be hard to happen with Dylan Edwards there. 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:07.520 Yeah. 0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:09.120 I only played the two games last year at five 0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:11.200 eight through a forty eight and a thirty. You're still young, 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:13.880 but it's just a really unknown role with him in 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:14.440 his panthide. 0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:17.120 Yeah, I'll be avoiding him and just wanting to see 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:19.680 how things unfold there at penoth what's question Mark's there? 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.560 My no go you're speaking of Jerome Lui before, I 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:24.200 don't know if you're. 0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:26.560 Going to like this one. I'm saying no to Leui. 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:29.920 He goes from the best team of the modern era 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:34.200 to arguably the worst. I know that people say that 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:36.160 he is better at half back and he's better when 0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:38.200 he's running the show, and that is true, but he 0:04:38.279 --> 0:04:40.640 ran the show for basically half the season last year 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.200 when Cleary was out injured. So I just don't I 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:47.200 don't get this, going from the best attacking team to 0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:47.800 the worst. 0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.039 Jerome Leui, don't even go there. 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:51.880 Love, I love the content, I love what you put 0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:53.719 out every week. I can't get behind that. 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:55.479 I can't get behind the LOUISLANDA Tommy. 0:04:55.800 --> 0:04:56.240 I think. 0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:58.520 I just think that, like five eight is a very 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:01.560 flat position. Even go with no guns there. I think 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:03.720 half back into the position to target in the halves 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:05.720 because you've got Cleary with a red hot start to 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:08.599 the season. In terms of the schedule, you got Nico 0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:11.760 Hines with probably even better schedule to start the season. 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:13.640 So a load up there. I'm going to load up 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:15.960 at fullback and then at five eight. I don't want 0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:18.640 to spend too much cash, So no Lui. I think 0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:20.560 Luke Metcalf's a good option, and there's a lot of 0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:23.720 good mid rangers. We'll get to them later in the show, 0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:26.839 but for me, no, LUI might even go a sneaky 0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:29.599 Dylan Brown. At some stage, I was thinking Cody Walker, 0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:33.760 but then he picked up that cart. Yeah, it could 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:35.960 be in doubt for around one. All right, let's just 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:38.800 go through some of the most popular mid rangers. Terror 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:40.880 or may do we even really. 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:41.840 Need to talk Aboutnock him in? 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.040 You were just saying before he's at what fifty? 0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:47.680 That's low, that's just ridiculous. 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.240 Yeah, let's talk about him too much. We move on 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:51.040 to Corey hawse Bro. 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:52.560 I like him. 0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:54.599 He's looking really fit. He's kissed and made up with 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:58.719 the coach. We'll see how They've got a trial this weekend. 0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:01.400 I'm not sure if he'll be named, but we'll see 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:05.200 how trials unfold. But he just needs a slight improvement 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:07.880 in minutes and we should see some big sid coach results. 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.640 Yeah, we're talking about hot takes earlier. My hot take 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:12.719 Corey Haws right back in maroone this year. 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:15.760 Yeah, well, I don't even think it's that much fun. 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:17.120 He looks good. 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:20.440 I just think if he's got his head screwed on. 0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:23.120 Now I think he could look, I mean, he can 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:23.640 do anything. 0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:25.200 Has he meant that he relateship with Ricky? 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:26.760 You think, well, that's. 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:29.880 By the sound of it, they've kissed and made up 0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:34.479 talk for the entire season. How great coaching from Ricky 0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:35.880 show just not talk to a player. 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:38.560 Look, he comes back in the best shape his career, 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:41.320 so maybe maybe it. 0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:43.839 Let's get on to Tino. 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:48.040 I've looked for full disclosure, I've got Tino in my team, 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:49.760 but I am looking for someone else. 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:51.520 I don't like the buying around one. I don't like 0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:52.200 the A C. L. 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:56.520 I'm looking for someone else, maybe Lindsay Collins, maybe Leam 0:06:56.560 --> 0:06:59.360 Martin running off Nathan Cleary. But I do actually have 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:00.719 him in my him currently. 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:03.360 Yeah, Tino is an interesting one with the buying round 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:05.280 one and the uncertainty with the ACL. I think it's 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:07.600 actually a blessing because we can extra week to look 0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:09.320 at him. Come around three, Jet we're going to be 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:11.840 scrambling to get all these cheapies that we've missed or 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:13.680 the mid ranges that we have to jump off. We're 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:15.800 not pressure to back it in the Tino in round three. 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:17.400 We can wait the extra week and pick him up 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:18.600 just before that price rising round four. 0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:20.600 Yeah, I'm keen of avoid him early, especially with the 0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:23.000 round one by I don't want to spend up at 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:24.480 front row Ford. I want to throw a may in 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:26.520 there and then the rest just sort of cheap guys 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:27.920 like Corey Hawsbur and the like. 0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:30.320 But do they sort of easy him back in? 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:32.560 You know, they got Read and Kenill Gillard there, so 0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:34.560 they don't really need Tino to be that Alpa male 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:35.200 early on. 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:36.000 No fight awaker as well. 0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:39.840 Ye yeah, yeah, I mean and he was only back 0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:43.480 to full training quite recently, so yeah, it's not like 0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:47.160 he's had an incredible run this off season into this. 0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:50.000 I think they do eas him back onto Jack Bird, 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:52.400 who I've been on and off about four different times 0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:56.440 this season. I don't like the injury history, but when 0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:59.040 you actually look at the stats, he's quite durable. He 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:01.840 doesn't get injured that often. He's just got the touch 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:04.600 of the Dugans about him where he gets hit from 0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:07.440 somewhere and he's down, you think he's gone for the season, 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:09.680 and then he comes back on the field fifteen minutes later. 0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:13.760 His record at Lock is pretty good, averaging around seventy 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:16.560 at lock recently, which is predamn good. 0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:19.560 I think I've done a backflip on him. I think 0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:20.760 jack Bird's in my team. 0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.720 I am obviously keen with the stats are really good. 0:08:24.760 --> 0:08:27.560 The only concern to me is those stats basically playing. 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:28.720 Eighty minutes a game. Is he going to get that 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:30.520 with his body now? I'm not too sure, But you 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:31.760 talk about his injury record, He's. 0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:33.480 Actually played more games in the last four years Nathan 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.520 Cleary has, and everyone's jumping at the bit to get Cleary. 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:39.040 So if you're gonna be kem Cleary, I think you've 0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:40.000 got to have a look at jack Bird. 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.439 Sanawing is obviously the great duel for him as well. 0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:43.920 Yeah, yeah, that's the best thing about him. 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:46.079 I've had Benchaboy, which is my ten last few years, 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:48.559 and he's been in valuable, just been able to switch 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:50.720 him up and down just to make trades. It's so 0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:53.480 flexible on a snakey paying apes for jack Bird. He's 0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:56.079 what three hundred and seventy eight K twenty twenty two 0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:58.000 when he was healthy and playing on the edge at 0:08:58.000 --> 0:08:58.600 the Dragons. 0:08:58.600 --> 0:08:59.880 He obviously went to the centers last year. 0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:02.839 Flanagan came in a four week period he had scores 0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:05.160 of one hundred and thirty one, ninety eight and eighty eight, 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:06.520 and he was doing a lot of offload and during 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:07.000 that he. 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:08.680 Can definitely look for work as well, which we talk about. 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:11.480 You know, Finifi Wearcky, you're going missing in out of games. 0:09:11.520 --> 0:09:13.720 Jack Bird's a guy that wants the ball and wants 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.520 to be in and around it. So it depends. There's 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:18.520 a couple of Tigers options that we're going to chat about. 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:20.319 How many of those do you want from apparently the 0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:21.720 worst team in the Comforcoy. 0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:23.480 This time, but not too sure. 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:28.800 You'll be going Alex safer than Jack to Luke Metcalf, 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:30.800 I like him. I've got him in my team. I 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:34.520 think he looks there's about four guys going for those 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:38.000 half spots for two half spots at the Warriors. 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:39.720 Shawn Johnson's obviously left the club. 0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:44.120 I think Metcalf gets it and I hope kicks goals. 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:46.600 That's probably the key. He's in my team for now. 0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:48.599 Yeah, in my team as well. The only concern for 0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:50.360 me is if they pick Adam Pompey in the centers. 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:52.000 I don't think they have always too much of a 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:54.120 threat for round one. Adam Webbs has spoken about Tanner 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:56.400 bringing a lot of depth to half back, but if 0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:58.319 Metcalf kicks, I mean we started, we saw him last 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:00.000 year yet start of the season he was great until 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:00.440 that injury. 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:02.719 We're getting him at that reduced price as well, which 0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:03.000 is great. 0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:05.000 Yeah, he's got that tryscurring ability too, does and he 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.360 scored maybe the first couple of games of the season, 0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:09.040 he scored a try and they'll. 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:09.760 Straight through the middle. 0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:11.520 He's just he's a quick guy. The only thing about 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:13.640 him is he can pick up an injury. That's the 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:16.160 only concern, and you don't want to be spending trades 0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:18.000 on him early to switch him out for it. 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:21.520 Still, he's quite under price, so I'm pretty happy to 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:23.280 get him in. I've got him in a position where 0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:26.080 I don't really want to spend too much cash start 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:26.439 the year. 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:30.160 Ont far who White. I like him so thirty three. 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:33.840 Minutes last year, No Jared Hargraves, No to Bernua and 0:10:33.920 --> 0:10:39.559 no mate. Yeah, so I mean you'd think he can 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:41.120 improve on thirty three minutes. 0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:42.960 Yeah, just by how much? Though? 0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:45.800 My concern is Radley can play eighty, Crichton can play eighty. 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:48.000 You've got nap Butcher who's got a good motor in him, 0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:49.560 and some of like Lindsay Coins is going to command 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:51.440 big minutes kind of Watson seems he tipped to play 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:54.000 nearly eighty. So it's like, where are the minutes coming from? 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:55.400 If you can get them? You know, his PPM has 0:10:55.440 --> 0:10:57.679 been fantastic. He loves, he loves and loves a tackle 0:10:57.720 --> 0:10:59.400 break and good jewel as well. You know, he could 0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:01.880 be flexible with guys like Aaron Clark or Corey Hawesbrough, 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:03.400 but for me, it's just I want to see the 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:04.600 minutes before I tack that plunch. 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:06.360 Yeah, he's no game breaker for me, but he's a 0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:08.640 solid pick there, like he's going to do his job 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:10.080 every week. You're not going to want to play him 0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:11.880 every week, but he's got the duel and if you 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.360 say you get ten o n tremain there one of 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:16.240 them has by, you can easily plug in the file 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:18.240 hit White in there and you know he's not going 0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:20.640 to get lower than twenty provided at the minutes to there. 0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:24.000 Let's talk about Isaiah PAPALII because I'm a little bit 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:26.959 torn on him if he comes in obviously at the 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:29.680 Panthers this year if he comes in plays eighty minutes 0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:32.880 to start the year, then you would think that he 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:35.360 improves on what he did with Tigers last season. But 0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:37.080 they've got a few guys floating around there who can 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.480 play that position. I think the key is going to 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:43.640 be Scott Sorenson where he ends up this ipap maybe 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:45.880 starting in the centers and then switch into the middle. 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:48.000 I think that could be the case. But if he's 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:50.280 playing eighty on the edge, he'll be in. 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:50.880 Yeah. 0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:53.120 Of course, ady on Ag is locking him in good 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:54.880 tip coach pegery, which is what we always look for. 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:57.000 But you've got Luke Ghanner, You've got Leam Martin, you 0:11:57.520 --> 0:11:59.160 he's got sirens, and you ain't got guys like Press 0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:00.839 and Ricky and mav guy that probably aren't going to 0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:01.840 get minutes, but they're there. 0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:03.400 So it was like, where as you go, I. 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:05.000 Paped can play in the middle, which we know he's 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:07.440 probably going to be great for his minutes, but Jet, 0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:09.160 if he's playing eighty, it's going to be very hard 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:09.840 to pass him up. 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:11.679 Well, if he's playing his best footy, they're going to 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:13.280 play Aim Maydy like if he goes back to what 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:15.080 he was doing in PARAMOUNTA there's no way they don't 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:15.800 play maighty minutes. 0:12:15.840 --> 0:12:16.760 And you've seen the last. 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:18.960 Year or two Scott Thorrenson put up a massive scores 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:22.400 on that left edge. Even if he plays in the 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:23.959 middle and plays sixty minutes, he's going to get a 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:26.480 lot of bass. So maybe we get a duel out 0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:29.199 of him later if he plays in the. 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:33.840 Pressure, the screens already to be handed. 0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:36.480 I do like Leam Martin actually as well. If Nathan 0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:37.960 Clear is feeding at the ball, he's got a really 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:42.360 good record with Cleary providing the ball for him. Jerome 0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:45.439 Leuai's next, I mean it's a note for me. Did 0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:47.760 we get your opinion on I don't think I was. 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:49.800 I was scarred on the wire playing halfback last year 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:51.839 because he absolutely decimated. 0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:52.960 My sharks at Shark Park. 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:54.920 I think you put out about one hundred and seventy 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:57.400 or something. He had the ball on a string. I 0:12:57.400 --> 0:12:59.080 actually liked Drome Lore. I don't think if I can 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:01.080 have him, but I don't. 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:03.800 I wouldn't. I wouldn't talk anyone out of get I. 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:06.200 Just think it a relatively similar price. You can go 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:06.839 Dylan Brown. 0:13:06.920 --> 0:13:08.160 I think be fun. 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:14.160 Yeah, he's gonna be fun to find I like. 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:16.720 He's got a bit about him. 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:18.840 Yeah, one of the guys that hasn't left my team 0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:21.000 since the picker came open. So well, I'm going to 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:22.280 talk to a brick when it comes a little ay 0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:23.120 with me unfortunately. 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:25.360 Well, let's move on to Connor Watson. You reckon. 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:27.600 You said before he could play close to eighty minutes. 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:29.559 I think that's I think that's true. And he's got 0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:32.200 that dual position where you can switch him around with 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:35.000 someone or sand and Smith. I'm gonna I'm going to 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:37.880 run with two hookers, two cheapy hookers, I should say, 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:40.480 in sand and Smith and marmozellas I've got at the moment. 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:43.000 So a great guy to have in that back row. 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:46.520 You can switch him around. Look, I like it. He's 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:48.760 got at least half a season to play close to 0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:52.200 eighty minutes. Proven super coach, performer, who's got work create 0:13:52.240 --> 0:13:54.880 an attack in him as well. I think that with 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:58.839 the halves that me short on halves know Luke Keary 0:13:58.920 --> 0:14:02.680 obviously this year and Sam Walker has that ACL So 0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:05.040 a lot of the play is going to go through 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:05.680 Connor Watson. 0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.240 Yeah, and no Brandon Smith for the first you know, 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:10.280 a couple of a couple months as well. So unless 0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:11.920 they run like a Zach Docker cloff the bench, I 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:14.520 can see a guy like Watson getting big minutes price 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:16.800 at five to eighty. We saw Max Plath. Maybe you're 0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:18.120 gonna be coming off the bench of the Dolphins, which 0:14:18.160 --> 0:14:20.040 would rule him out. Then it opens up a door 0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:22.280 for a guy like Watson. Make a good point at 0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:25.440 double cheapy hooker. It can go wrong, You've got good 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:27.119 cover there for Watson to come in and feeling. 0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:28.520 If need be ye, yeah, form me. 0:14:29.200 --> 0:14:31.440 He's a clear second or third option at hooker, and 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:33.400 he's one hundred k cheap than Harry Grant, So I 0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:35.280 think he's out probably be pretty similar. I don't think 0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:38.120 he'll clips Harry Grant in total overall scoring. He might 0:14:38.160 --> 0:14:39.720 be missing over the origin period as well. 0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:40.720 Yeah, that's the. 0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:42.960 Thing they're considered. But yeah, he's got points in him 0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:43.800 as we saw last year. 0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:45.840 Yeah, I mean I don't. I just don't think he 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:48.000 can touch Harry Grant to start the season. 0:14:48.040 --> 0:14:49.400 Give him. He's got that buying round two. 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:53.400 So Connor Watson's one of the top guys in that position, 0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:55.200 but you can pick him in another position to start here. 0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:59.040 We'll get some questions in a second before that Finnish 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.120 fur Rearky. We all agree he's a little bit iffy. 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:03.760 Role is just uncertain for me. 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:05.960 If he had a stranglehold in eighty minutes we saw 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:07.480 him at the Cowboys, I think you have reached something 0:15:07.520 --> 0:15:09.440
