1 00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: Three sixty right awak from every angle boards you by 2 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: tell fast joining me again the great Gordon Tallas, that's 3 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: been the journal Australian Poor Crawley dean Bulldog Richie. How 4 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: good is Kyle felt going? How good is the Cowboys going? 5 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: If they win this week? They threw to a pre 6 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 1: limb to take on the Melbourne Storm. But they are 7 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: the dark horses of season twenty twenty four. 8 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 2: Certainly they're the team from outside the top four I 9 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 2: think can cause the most damage. Pretty smart too, the Cowboys. 10 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 2: What about today? They claim they couldn't get flights on 11 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 2: a commercial jet, So what happens cap in hand at NURL? 12 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:33,840 Speaker 3: Can we get a charter flight? 13 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 4: Boom? 14 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 5: I was always three hour. I was always pretty confident 15 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 5: they'd make it to the game. 16 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 3: Do you think it was on purpose? It was a 17 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 3: reployee it. 18 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 4: As I read it, I thought that, yeah, it on purpose. 19 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 3: Well, I think it's a smart move. 20 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 6: So to go to townshi let's flight to Brisbane and 21 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 6: a stopover maybe a six or seven hour trip. It's 22 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 6: Melbourne's longest trip, so that's pretty smart. From the North Queensland, 23 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 6: Cowboy's well done, one nil, big couple of games coming up, 24 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 6: but it must be for the finals. 25 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 4: Oh sensational. 26 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,399 Speaker 5: You watched that piece on Cole felt there hasn't he 27 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 5: finished with a bang? Like he's had this outstanding career. 28 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 5: The intercept last week and got one the week before too. 29 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 3: He's broken the fifteen. Yeah, what are you looking forward to? 30 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 4: Mainly East? I say the Sydney Roosters. 31 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 2: I think that's got all the ingredient has been absolute, 32 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 2: all Sydney blockbuster out there and they're tipping it will 33 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 2: be a massive crowd. 34 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 4: Early figures are huge. 35 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: I can't wait for the weekend's finals games incoming. Rookie 36 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: coach Jason Ryles has broken he's silenced on his plans 37 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 1: for the paramatter rebuilding. On a lengthy interview with the club, 38 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: he's the best bits. 39 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 7: It feels a lot longer than that. 40 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 8: But yeah, no, obviously we've you know, we've changed the 41 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 8: staff over in regards to coaching. That was nothing personal. 42 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 8: It was just, you know, I think it's important that 43 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 8: you know, we all aligned and I make sure that 44 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 8: I get coaches that I'm comfortable with. 45 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 3: Now. 46 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 8: I've been very impressed so far with the setup of 47 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 8: the club. Everyone seems to be a line from the 48 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 8: board down to the GM and the footing manager and 49 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 8: the list managers. 50 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 9: Mitchell Moses obviously very important part of the team. 51 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 8: You know, I was really pleased for Mitchell watching that origin. 52 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 8: He dominated those two games. Very exciting as his future coach, 53 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 8: So it's an exciting opportunity to work with him. 54 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 9: One question you might cop is about Reagan Kemball Gillard 55 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 9: not being here. Can you shed any light on that. 56 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 7: No, I think that was just an opportunity for both parties. 57 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 8: He had an opportunity to obviously extend his career right now, 58 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 8: so I thought, you know, I didn't want to stand 59 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 8: in his way to do that, and nothing personal, It's just, 60 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 8: you know, I thought I'd want to do what was 61 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 8: best for him. 62 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 9: He's click Gouthers and still a big part of your 63 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 9: plans at Paramount. 64 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 7: Yeah, immediately, he's a big part of the plans. 65 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 3: Obviously. 66 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 8: He's one of the biggest effort players in the whole competition. 67 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 7: You know, I've been a bit of an admirer of 68 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 7: his for a long time now. 69 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 9: So Jason, what are your key priorities for the football 70 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 9: program going forward? 71 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 8: Our pathways are super important for us. I think we 72 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 8: had four debutantes this year, the obvious one with plays. 73 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 8: You know, that's disappointing, But Penrith a sort of cherry 74 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,079 Speaker 8: picking out of our backyard. 75 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 9: What's your take on club legends and any sort of 76 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 9: involvement they might have in the club. 77 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 7: Absolutely love it. 78 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 8: The more they can be involved, the better. I think 79 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,679 Speaker 8: they do a pretty good job of it so far. 80 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 8: But I want them to feel like they can just 81 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 8: walk in off the street and just come and be 82 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 8: a part of what we're doing, as long as they 83 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 8: don't get in the way and the drills. But you know, 84 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 8: they can do anything they want. Come and eat with 85 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 8: a seed, to meal with this, but that type of thing. 86 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 8: But anything we can do to connect with them, I 87 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 8: think that's really important for our footy club and our culture. 88 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the first time we've heard from new head 89 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: coach of the Paramatta Eels, Jason Ryles. A twenty five 90 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: minute interview there with Adam Hawes. 91 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 3: What do we make of it? It looked very relaxed. 92 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 2: I should take a video of that right now and 93 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 2: chart to him in three months or six months in 94 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: the next season. 95 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 4: Look, the assistant coach has. 96 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: Always loved, never has to make the tough calls, never 97 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: makes the tough conversations. It's a big move for forty 98 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 2: five year old Jason Rolls. I think he's ready and 99 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 2: it's going to be a massive, suffocating pressure on him 100 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 2: next year. 101 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 5: He spoke about a couple of interesting things there. I 102 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 5: thought that talk about bringing the legends in and making 103 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 5: him welcome. We all know that's been an issue at 104 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 5: Paramatta for a long time. The other thing that he 105 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 5: touched on was from the chairman down to the football 106 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 5: staff there United. 107 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 4: But we know that this year there was. 108 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 5: A division because Mitchell Moses had a blow up about 109 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 5: the division between the players and the staff and the board. 110 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 5: And this is a first time coach that has to 111 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 5: come in and try and pull this all together. And 112 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 5: there's even there's a lot of fractures at that club, 113 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 5: even amongst the playing staff at the moment. The uncertainty 114 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 5: this year in the wake of Brad Arthur leaving, I 115 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 5: think it's a huge job. Good luck to the guy 116 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 5: because he's coming in for his first shot at it. 117 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 5: But yeah, you can't underestimate the job ahead of him. 118 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 3: I thought he spoke well. He talks about breaking the drought. 119 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: He dreams of breaking that drought, and he talks about 120 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: values and what he wants to instill any in his 121 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: players and in his club. He talks about working with 122 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: Trent Robinson and taking bits of him and Craig Bellamy, 123 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 1: but making it his own. Essentially, he wants Paramount to 124 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: play like Paramatta. He doesn't want them to play like 125 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: the Roosters or Melbourne. He's a very smart coach. Roles, 126 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: He's done it for a long time now, Gordon. I 127 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: think he's going to do a great job. 128 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 6: Super impressive for his first interview. I played with him 129 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 6: in the early two thousands. I never thought I think 130 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 6: it was he and Shane Webkin in a front row. 131 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 6: I never ever thought that I'd play with Jason Roles 132 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 6: and to become a coach. But that was super impressive done. 133 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 6: He's done an amazing apprenticeship and good luck to him. 134 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 6: It's a very proud club and hopefully Paramatic can get 135 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 6: back in the winning. 136 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 1: Brett Reed did an article and interviewed him today. Jason rolls. 137 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: There are a few things to take out of that, 138 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: and one of them was Clint Gutherson. 139 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 3: Rolese. 140 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 1: He did say that he'd spoken to Guffo and his 141 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: management and there was never a conversation. 142 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 3: There hasn't been one of him moving on. 143 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: But he did say that he could play thirteen or 144 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: nine thoughts on that well. 145 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 5: He also said in that article that Gutho was receptive 146 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 5: of idea or anything I can do for the team. 147 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 5: I think that we now wait and see if it 148 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 5: will be anything I can do for the team, because 149 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 5: Gutho's reached a point in his career like at or Lumpet, 150 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 5: where his legs look to be getting weary. He hasn't 151 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 5: got the pace that he once had roles. He's basically 152 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 5: said Isaiah EONGI has come from Penrith and he will 153 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,239 Speaker 5: take over as the fullback and to move Gupho into 154 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 5: the middle. And they've already got Jermaine Hopgood that plays 155 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 5: that role. He's talking about like a wish Art Dylan 156 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 5: Walker's sort of role. 157 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 4: Will he be happy with that? 158 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 6: He's got to be. I think fullback's a young men's position. 159 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 6: I watched him this year and you know it's no disrespect, 160 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 6: but you know, father time catches up. It looks like 161 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 6: that he's lost the yard to speed. A couple of 162 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 6: times they went around in with these. I think he's 163 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 6: still got a role to play, but it might be 164 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 6: like a salmon, you know, either way salmon or man 165 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 6: plays at the Cannoby Bulldogs. 166 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 2: He's fiercely protective of his role at fullback. I'd be 167 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: if he's going to accept it happily, Jason Rowles said. 168 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 2: Clint Gustin said, yes, I'm sweet. I will do what 169 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 2: the best thing is for the team. I am happy 170 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 2: to help in any way. 171 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 3: That I can. 172 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: I'm not suggesting anyone's telling FIBs, but I don't think 173 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 2: if you move Gutho he's going to take it happily. 174 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: Well, I just don't see it. I don't see Gatho 175 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: as a nine. Does he benefit the team? What about 176 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: the centers or just a roving third in. 177 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 3: A roving thirteen? Yeah? 178 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: Possibly, yeah, possibly. I still find it hard to visualize 179 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: seeing him in playing lock. You know, he's got footwork 180 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: and he does have a pass. He'd be tested defensively 181 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: going from fall back into lock lock. These days in 182 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: the middle, you may a lot of tackles, right, You've 183 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: got hopgood there as well, nine as well, and. 184 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 3: Nine you're making a lot of tackles. 185 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: You've got to have good vision out of nine, which 186 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: he does have, but it's very different nine. 187 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 3: To fall back. I don't know if it the work. 188 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 3: If I'm being brutally honest, I only get the experiment 189 00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 3: would last. 190 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 5: Night, I would say, though too, who is it? Paramatta 191 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 5: have been very good to Clink Guthuson like Guthson's been 192 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 5: good for them. But he came there as a basically 193 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 5: a rookie a few games at Manly. Brad Arthur gave 194 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,239 Speaker 5: him that opportunity. He's been there since twenty sixteen, I think, 195 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 5: and he's he's earn good money, he's he's done, He's 196 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 5: had an outstanding career. But there comes a time where 197 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 5: sometimes you have to give back to the club. And 198 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 5: if the club truly want to keep him and he 199 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 5: wants to take on that role, well. 200 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 4: Well where's his best position? CRUs Well it was fullback. 201 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 4: You're saying was as in past? I don't know. I 202 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 4: don't know. 203 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,239 Speaker 5: Gordon said his best position is he came back from 204 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,719 Speaker 5: a tree this year. 205 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 6: I get because they keep on losing the young kids. 206 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 6: They want to play in that role. And there comes 207 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 6: a time when if you want someone and he's a heart. 208 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 2: And soul that club though, if you he's not happy, 209 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: that is going to ricochet down the plane. 210 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 4: Come fifteenth this year, I think, or sixteenth. 211 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: They can't get any further day. They've got a new coach. 212 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: It's a new beginning. He can't look back, move forward. 213 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 6: Name the club that will sign him as number one 214 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 6: on the money that he's on now. 215 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 4: I couldn't tell. 216 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 2: If the top of me, he's probably two or three 217 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 2: that would sign him up. He's an elite fullback. He's 218 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: past it. I don't think Gutho's past We're. 219 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 6: Not saying he's past it, but at that position, I'm 220 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 6: not saying he's past the NRL. I never said that, 221 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 6: but I think number one is a young man's position. 222 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 3: He has not past it. 223 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: I think guthe will do a good job at fullback 224 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: for paramatter. He puts his heart and soil into the 225 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: club and in his performance every week. Can they win 226 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: a competition with him at fullback? That that that's essentially 227 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: like every club, that's what you look at. Who's going 228 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: to be our best fullback, who's going to be our 229 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: most dynamic, who's going to create the most opportunities? You know, 230 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: and and the young kid from from Penrithy. Is it 231 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,959 Speaker 1: big raps on him? He's fast, he's electric. Is part 232 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: of that modern brigade that are coming through fullbacks that are, 233 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, the next biggest thing. 234 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 3: He's one of them. 235 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 5: Paramounta also have to face the reality too, that doggie. 236 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 5: They've gone from being in a Grand Final and then 237 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 5: having that Grand Final window shut. They've got to start rebuilding. 238 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 5: They've got to look to the future. I don't think 239 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 5: you can stay living in the past and expect Paramatta 240 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 5: to climb way back. 241 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 4: Up to the top of the table. If you move him, 242 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 4: does he remain your captain? 243 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 5: It would be a hard because it depends if. 244 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 2: He's move him as captain and move him positionally. Yes, Well, 245 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 2: that's a slap in the face for Gaffe. 246 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 3: What do they come this year? 247 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 4: What do you want to do like he's a great captain? 248 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 4: Well the Cowboys. 249 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 5: The Cowboys did it this year, moving along Townsend and 250 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 5: Jason Talberolo, and they brought in Tom did and then 251 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 5: Ruben Cotter and they've been absolutely. 252 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: The Bulldogs did it with Stephen Crichton. They move Read 253 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,839 Speaker 1: Marney and Read was okay with it because at the 254 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: end of the day. 255 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 6: Do we tell you what the captains does? 256 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know he's a bit more than that 257 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 4: out there. He's a leader at that club, but. 258 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 6: He do it without the sea. You don't need to see. 259 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 6: The leaders of your club are the leaders of your club. 260 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 6: They don't need to see beside their name to do that. 261 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 3: You strip him with. 262 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: The captaincy I reckon you're going to get a very 263 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 2: that shows where he is. 264 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 10: Well. 265 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 5: You can't have that, no dog, because for Paramatta to 266 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 5: rebuild and for Jason Rolls to do his job, he's. 267 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 4: Got to be tough. 268 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 5: He's got to make big decisions, tough decisions, and the 269 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 5: players have got to buy in or they've got to go. 270 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: This may sound bad, but maybe Paramatta and Ryles if 271 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: if he Clint isn't happy with it and he wants 272 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: to go, maybe they won't stop him. That's just an 273 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: observation I'm making from the outside looking in. 274 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 4: And he said he's happy, so I guess exactly. 275 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, Tom talk about his premiership drought. 276 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: Now, Jason Roles did say in the interview that he 277 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: dreams to break it. 278 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 3: There's a lot of pressure. What are you laughing, couse? 279 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 5: You paramattic catches that have come in dreaming to break 280 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 5: the premiership goes back to nineteen eighty six. 281 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 4: You know they've all had a go and. 282 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 3: It close a few times. 283 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 4: They have been close. 284 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 5: Bred Arthur got him to agree and follow, you know, 285 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 5: Daniel Anderson got him to a Grand final. Brian Smith 286 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 5: got him to a Grand Final. They've they've they've been closed. 287 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 5: But that that does hang like an albatross around that club. 288 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 4: Until until they dream. 289 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 3: That's the whole do And I think. 290 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 5: Rolls came out with it with a quote in a 291 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 5: story today saying. 292 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 4: That how do you we eat an elephant? You one 293 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 4: bite at a time. 294 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 5: You've got to take steps to take that in. 295 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 6: The books, mate, we. 296 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 2: Think the paramount of roster is on the rise or 297 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,239 Speaker 2: on the decrease. 298 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 6: They got to turn it because if it's and it 299 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 6: is on the siege, then Jason Rowls JO. 300 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 3: Should show you asked us some good questions. 301 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 4: Well, the need speed, That's what I'm saying. They need speed. 302 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 5: I don't conceded that in his interview today. They need speed. 303 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 5: That's when you talk about Guto. They've they've they've got 304 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 5: some outside backs. They need that blistering pace. He's looked 305 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 5: at systems like the Roosters in Melbourne and that's where 306 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 5: he comes from. Paramatta have got some big decisions to 307 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 5: make and he's the man that has to make them. 308 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 1: Should we get to the ins and outs of this 309 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: weekend Boro when I'm ready, Let's take a look at 310 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: the big inns and OUs a week two of the finals, 311 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,239 Speaker 1: all thanks to the tab and here they are. Highenes 312 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: named at half back. He has kept his spot. Atkinson 313 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: named on the bench, Peyton names the same seventeen that 314 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: defered the Knights. JW h a huge inclusion for the Roosters, 315 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: and Radleigh surprisingly or not named on the extended bench. 316 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: Willie or Woney play and Turbo named despite shoulder and 317 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: the issues which we expected. The big one though, is 318 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: Victor Radley. The Roosters have named him. As I said 319 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: on the extended bench. I spoke to Nick Politis this 320 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: afternoon and he's preparing to play this week Cruel. 321 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 5: It's a big call like it's the same injury as 322 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 5: Cooper Kronk had going into that Grand Final Differences. Kronk 323 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 5: played that overseas being manager's sort of role. Kerry took 324 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 5: the reins of the team that day. Victor Radley is 325 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 5: a bruising back rower shoulders, so if he takes the field, 326 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 5: there's no excuses because they've got good back rowers there. 327 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 6: Victor one come up with an excuse. If he plays, 328 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 6: He'll put his body on the line. He saw what 329 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 6: Nathan Cleary did the other day. He went out there 330 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 6: and tackled everybody think he did. If Victor goes and plays, 331 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 6: he would just go and do what Victor does. 332 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 4: Tell you what's going to be grueling. 333 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: His hard heaves up against Matt Launch just a real 334 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 2: old school old knock him down, drag him out, battle 335 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 2: up front because you know better than he want to break. 336 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 2: Jared is the man who sets the tone and he 337 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 2: sets the leadership levels at Bondo, and. 338 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 3: He needs to get through the game this week, but 339 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 3: you know he does and he lefts everyone else. He's 340 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 3: a huge inclusion. Just with Victor. 341 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: It is a tricky one whether he plays or not, 342 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: because he plays so tough. In three weeks, it's been three, 343 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: No not long them three because it was the same 344 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: week as Walker and Smith. But this is look at 345 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: the way he plays, and he's got a fractured scapula 346 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: and the problem with this is he could do this, 347 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: go out there and within the first tackle, go it's 348 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: no good, and he's he's out for the match. And 349 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: then you've got one less on the interchange. And so 350 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: it's quite a decision that Trent Robinson and Victor and 351 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: the medical staff need to make. I think they'll give 352 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: him to the till Friday, but it's. 353 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 3: A big call. 354 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 4: It's a gamble, isn't it. 355 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 3: There's no doubt about it. 356 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 4: But any bite, we'll get through it. 357 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 3: It's Victor Radley. 358 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 5: I also think it takes a little bit of the 359 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 5: spotlight away from other areas within the Roosters because you know, 360 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 5: we're sitting here talking about Victor at the moment, and 361 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 5: coming out of last week's game, there was a there 362 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 5: was a bigger, a bigger issue, and that was the helves, 363 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 5: and that was young sand and Smith and the talk 364 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 5: that would Robbo stick with him or move Joey marn 365 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 5: And when Robbo's stuck with him and they're coming up 366 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 5: against Brooks and Cherry Evans this week and we saw 367 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 5: what Cherry Evans did last week, I think there's real 368 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 5: pressure on the Rooster's harves to aim up in there's. 369 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: There any pressure on them. You go, Hians didn't show 370 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: away from the tough questions. Today is the Sharks prepare 371 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: for a sudden day final against the Cowboys. 372 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 11: If people want to try tear me down along the way, 373 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 11: then there's something going on in their lives that they 374 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 11: might need to deal with. Because I've got a good 375 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 11: life and I'm going to continue to be happy every 376 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 11: single day and i just got to block. 377 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 7: It all out. 378 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 11: It's going to come. It's going to keep coming for 379 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 11: the rest of my career, staying off social media, getting 380 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 11: away from it, being around my closest people, and you know, 381 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 11: I've got a good life. I can need to nail 382 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 11: my opportunities in big games and they need to put 383 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 11: his in position, and I will continue to look to 384 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 11: do that. But I need my teammates and the teammates 385 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 11: need me. So it's going to turn out at some 386 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 11: point there's going to be a moment where I'm going 387 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 11: to nail and we'll have fun doing it and I'll 388 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 11: be smiling after it. We've got this tag at the 389 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 11: Cernal Sharks at the moment about we can't win a 390 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 11: final this game and the only time I'm ever really 391 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 11: talking about or hearing about it when I'm talking to 392 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 11: you guys, or someone's texting me about it. You know, 393 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 11: like right now, I don't care. 394 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: He go Hians one of the games of his life 395 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,959 Speaker 1: this weekend and he's off all social media. 396 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 3: Doggie, didn't you say that last week? You should get off? 397 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 4: And I think he's overexposed and overhopped. To be honest 398 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 4: with your breath, I think. 399 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 2: He should be told to go away, stay away from 400 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 2: the cameras and just focus on your footy. Nico did 401 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 2: say just then, though people are trying to tear me down. 402 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 2: I think that's an unfair comment because we're in the 403 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 2: media and the fans are in told to express an 404 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 2: opinion about how a star player who's on a million 405 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 2: bucks a year is going, and if he attracts criticism, 406 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 2: I don't think that warrants a comment saying that you 407 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 2: are trying to tear me down. 408 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 6: If you want to take Wayne Bennett said to me 409 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 6: one day, if you want the good articles written about you, 410 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 6: you take the bad articles, you take the poor one. 411 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 3: So if you put. 412 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 6: Yourself out there when you're in the deli and when 413 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 6: you do all that, if you want to go there 414 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,479 Speaker 6: and take all the accolades. When someone writes a bad article, 415 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 6: you've got to appreciate. So if you read all the 416 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 6: good ones and like it, we'll just read the bad one. 417 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 4: I think you write your own headlines, Gordy. 418 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 5: I think when Nick was flying, and when he was 419 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 5: when he was winning the day, and there's so many 420 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 5: different parts to his life that we absolutely admire and 421 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 5: we praised him for that. 422 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 4: But you've got to also look at the reality. 423 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 5: And unfortunately for Nico in the big games, and you 424 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 5: spoke about it last night, Gordon, not club games, big games, 425 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 5: he hasn't aimed up. And he not only hasn't aimed up, 426 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 5: he hasn't played his best. He's been disappointing. You can't 427 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 5: ignore that. That's not tearing him down, that's just making 428 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 5: judgment and comment on what you see. 429 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 6: I'll give him the origin games right, because I reckon 430 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 6: the tackle was unfair, and I reckon playing against Queensland 431 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 6: with twelve men whatever. But club games and big games 432 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 6: last week, they're paid to get the job done and 433 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 6: that and the same part is that's what happens. 434 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: Well concerned me in that interview, and I watched the 435 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: whole thing today He said he's off social media, he's 436 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: not listening to the noise and all that, but he 437 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: referenced the noise until or three occasions. At one point 438 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 1: said I've got a good life. People who are criticizing 439 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: me must have issues in their own And I'm thinking, 440 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: you're actually talking to the noise. You're listening you you 441 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: can't control that. This is the thing with Nico. I 442 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: think the only thing you can control other controllables, your 443 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: own preparations. Turn your phone off, don't watch an all 444 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 1: three sixty, you don't watch any of any of the shows. 445 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: To put the papers away, make sure your preparations. You would, 446 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 1: make sure your meals are good, make sure your training sessions. 447 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 1: You will get on the field, get the game plan, 448 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: ex kit. They're all the controllables. They're things that only 449 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 1: he can control that's going to get the right result. 450 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: I feel like he is impacted by the outside. Any 451 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: showed us that in that interview, and I wouldn't have 452 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: even put him up today. 453 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 3: If I'm the Sharks, mate, don't put him up. 454 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: Stay quite, focus on train and focus on your teammates, 455 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 1: focus on your preparation. 456 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 3: No distractions. That's it. 457 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 4: You talk about that breath. 458 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 5: And it's such a good point because over the years 459 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 5: and when you used to watch Melbourne, when they had 460 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 5: Cameron Smith and Billy Slater and Cooper Kronk, they always 461 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 5: spoke about we can only control what we can control. 462 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 5: But they not only said it, you could. 463 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 4: Till they believed it and they lived it. 464 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 5: Whereas what you just said about Nico, it's it is 465 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 5: a concern because he's saying he's off social media, but 466 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 5: then he's talking about what people are saying instead of 467 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 5: just saying, I will focus on what I can control. 468 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 3: You know what Nico. 469 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 2: Hines to me, his body language on field is poor 470 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 2: at the moment. But even that interview that just had 471 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 2: sparks flying off of negativity. 472 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 4: There was nothing positive in that interview. 473 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 2: It was it was cranky, and I get it the 474 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 2: criticism can be overparent, but interview was. 475 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 6: We haven't had articles written about utatain and getting caught 476 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 6: and getting really. 477 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:40,239 Speaker 3: Use it right? 478 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 4: Eight of them. 479 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you wrote a couple of too. He 480 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 3: was the best. 481 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 6: Actually, yeah, But like, aren't they feel isn't that motivation? 482 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 6: Doesn't they get you, you know, to the line a 483 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 6: bit faster at training? 484 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 3: Doesn't that make your tackle a little a little bit harder, 485 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,880 Speaker 3: and he uses motivation. Yeah. 486 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 5: The other thing he said too, was that that they 487 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 5: will keep coming at me for the rest of my career. 488 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 4: No they won't. 489 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 3: No, they won't know that. 490 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 4: You aim up, you dictate that and you write your 491 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 4: own headlines. 492 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 3: That's true. 493 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: Okay, let's move on now. James Tedesco hit out at 494 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: Rooster's critics. Here's what he said today. You guys aren't 495 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,160 Speaker 1: in our four walls. Honestly, I get sick and tired 496 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: of hearing that from you guys. 497 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 3: That's all you talk about. 498 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: And he was referring here to the doubters of them 499 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: winning a premiership this year due to injury. So James 500 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: Tedesco is sick and tired the criticism and the doubt. 501 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 3: How did you see this? Scorting a bit strange. I 502 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 3: haven't won. 503 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 6: That's twenty now out of twenty one that they've lost 504 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 6: against the big guys. I really give them a chance. 505 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 6: I like their roster. When I read the Rooster's side, 506 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,640 Speaker 6: I think it's really strong. I think it's as strong 507 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 6: as Paneuth and Melbourne stare. And they went out there 508 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 6: and they didn't perform. So I think there's a right 509 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 6: to ask. It's a powerful club, it's a Clement club, 510 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 6: and they get pretty much a premiership roster every year. 511 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 4: Like Teddy, he's not me very composed. 512 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 3: But it's good though. 513 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 4: Well I've got two theories here. 514 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 2: Either he is trying to portray an image to his 515 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 2: teammates that we still have the fire on the belly 516 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 2: and let's push away from the issues which you discussed, 517 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 2: or is he also saying that we're the underdogs and 518 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 2: we've been written off and I'm sick of the injuries. 519 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 2: But I'm going to come out here right now and say, 520 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: you know what, we're in this up to our next Still, 521 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 2: I think it's a little bit different to what we 522 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 2: observe with Niko, because Teddy has been there. 523 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 5: And done that, and he is a champion. He is 524 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 5: a champion, and he would be using this as motivation 525 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 5: to prove all us wrong. And that's what you would 526 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 5: love to see the Roosters go out. But I agree 527 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 5: with you, Gordon. They've had some significant injuries like losing 528 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 5: your half back, your gun back grower and Jared didn't 529 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 5: play last week. 530 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 4: You know, when you're up against his champion Panthers team. 531 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 5: They come charging back into that game for a moment 532 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 5: there before the forward ten. 533 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, well they did get beaten thirty to ten. 534 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 3: I think the media is. 535 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 4: 'entitled to the question is your campaign falter? 536 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: And Luke Herey wasn't too happy last week too when 537 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: he was asked similar questions. 538 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 3: And that's fair enough. 539 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: I mean they are pretty passionate and I think that 540 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: they can do better. Wayne blast the South Sydney those 541 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: players in his first address. 542 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 3: So Wayne has spoken to the group. 543 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: I believe he's come down to Sydney and had his 544 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,640 Speaker 1: first interaction with the players. 545 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 3: And how did that go down? 546 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 5: I think it was last Wednesday. I think he was 547 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 5: pretty blunt with them. I think, what did you write 548 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 5: that story, Doggie that he did? He basically walked in 549 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 5: and he gave it to him and he left him 550 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 5: in no uncertain terms. I think he said many things, 551 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 5: including no one fears you anymore. 552 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 4: That was the one that stung them. 553 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 2: He questioned their commitment, their speed, their fitness, their work ethic. 554 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 2: But the one that stung the players was apparently Bennett 555 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 2: saying no club fears you anymore. And I think that's 556 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 2: what really gave a boot up the backside of it. 557 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 2: They do need some home truth. 558 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 3: Would that offend you, Gordy? 559 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, no idea, Well it's you if it's wrong. 560 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 3: No, it's the truth. Doesn't offending. 561 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 6: Would anybody feared souse and the back half of the season? 562 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 6: Did they look like the fittest team in the competition? 563 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 6: Did they look like they were going to make the 564 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 6: top eight and challenge for a title? 565 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 3: I know it. 566 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 2: It was funny though because the Sunday, September the eighth, 567 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 2: that was the Dolphins last game up there at Newcastle 568 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 2: and this is on the Wednesday Crawls, so it's only 569 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 2: three days later. So Wayne obviously wanted to get in 570 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 2: there nice and early. Didn't mince his words, and he 571 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 2: didn't muck around. Didn't give you in October. 572 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 12: Yeah, you think you'll make some tough cause I think 573 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,679 Speaker 12: he has to make tough cause I think that the 574 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 12: way South Sydney performed this year and going back to 575 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 12: last year and the concerns that were made, obviously going 576 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 12: right back to when Sam walked out the door, they 577 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 12: need a good kick up the ass. 578 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 4: And he's the man to do it. 579 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 5: Wayne Bennett comes here is seventy four years of ages 580 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 5: seventy five, and this is his last frontier, this is 581 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 5: his legacy. 582 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 4: The one thing. 583 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 5: Wayne doesn't want to do is come down here in 584 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 5: his last challenge leave as of failure. 585 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 4: So what can you do? You make tough decisions. If 586 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 4: they don't buy in, then they'll be out. 587 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 3: In the doors. One of those tough calls. 588 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 5: Well, the tough calls have to be. Latrell has to 589 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 5: buy in, doesn't he. And I understand he's had a 590 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 5: meeting live with Latrell, and Wayne is very confident he's 591 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 5: going to get the best out of Latrill. But that 592 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 5: starts in pre season. That starts with an attitude adjustment. 593 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 5: I think that there's a few there. Cody Walker's at 594 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 5: a stage of his career where he's moved on in 595 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 5: years from the time they played in the Grand Final 596 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 5: Tool now three or four years has passed. I think 597 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 5: Cody needs to go out. He needs to train incredibly hard. 598 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 5: I think across the board they do, and Wayne's the 599 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 5: man that can do that. Well guarantee one thing, he 600 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 5: proved it going right back to Wally Lewis. If he 601 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 5: has to make tough decisions, he will make tough decisions. 602 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: All right, Well, time will tell. Let's cross down to 603 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: Melbourne now storm Center. Nick Mehani joins us on the show. 604 00:25:58,359 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 1: Niger massive win. 605 00:25:59,440 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 3: Over the show. 606 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: Actually Spine hasn't had a lot of time together this season. 607 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 3: Do you think the best is still ahead of you? 608 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 10: Hey, guys, thanks having me on. Yeah, I think so. 609 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 10: Obviously we're playing some good foot at the moment. There's 610 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 10: always room for improvement, but you know, they're doing their job, 611 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 10: and I think everyone else is doing their job as well. 612 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 4: Nick Paul Crawley here mate. We always talk. 613 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 5: About how Craig Bellamy can bring the best out in 614 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 5: every player, but a lot of players that may come 615 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 5: from other clubs and may have not had great success. Yourself, 616 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 5: you came from Newcastle and the Bulldogs. You've gone to 617 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 5: another lever under Craig. 618 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 4: What is his secret? What does he do that's different 619 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 4: to the rest? 620 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 10: I think he really just simplifies your role amongst a team. 621 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 3: You know, I've played a few. 622 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 10: Positions down here in Melbourne, but you know I've known 623 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 10: what to do each game in those positions. Obviously, he 624 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 10: prides himself on us working hard and pushing us hard 625 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 10: in the preseason, and I think that gets us set 626 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 10: up for the rest of the year. You know, is 627 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 10: not going to just be handed to you. 628 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 3: I got to work for it. 629 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 10: But really just simplifying our roles and obviously having the 630 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 10: guys around him, having Billy Slater coming each week and 631 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 10: teachers a few things definitely helps. 632 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 4: Nick, it's Dean Richie. 633 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 2: You were so dominant against the Sharks last week. Is 634 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 2: there still another gear for the Melbourne Storm or are 635 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 2: you at a level now that's going to be hard 636 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 2: to overtake. 637 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 10: Yeah, I don't know really, Just as long as we're 638 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 10: going out there each week doing our job, each game 639 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 10: is going to be different. We've got Manly or Roosters 640 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 10: next week, so we'll do our homework on them and 641 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 10: best prepare we can this weekend next week to take 642 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 10: them on he Nick. 643 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 3: It's good and tell us. Is there any preference on 644 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 3: who you play? 645 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 6: You're going to sit back, get the weekend off, hopefully 646 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:44,959 Speaker 6: they bash each other up. 647 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 3: But is there a preference for you guys? 648 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 10: No, I don't think so. Obviously, reverse those teams during 649 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 10: the year had some success against the Roosters, not so 650 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 10: great against Manly, but I think we're a different side 651 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 10: as well. Come towards the end of the year here, 652 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 10: hopefully we can just put on a good performance, doesn't 653 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 10: matter watch what team. 654 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: It is, Nick, I know you don't want to look 655 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,439 Speaker 1: too far ahead, and I'm not going to ask you 656 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: to look towards the Grand Final here, but just Penrith. 657 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: If you do come up against Penrith, they're going for 658 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: four in a row. They're an incredible team. Why are 659 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: those they so good? And how do you beat them? 660 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 9: Yeah? 661 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 10: I mean they've been good for years. I think they 662 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 10: just know their game to a t. 663 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 7: Really. 664 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 10: You know, they've got such great players amongst their team, 665 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 10: but they do all the little things right consistently for 666 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 10: the whole eighty minutes.
