1 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 1: Welcome to L three sixty Rugby League from every angle, 2 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: joining me in the great Gordon tallis Spring the Journal Australian, 3 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: Paul Crawley and Dean Richie. We have a massive show 4 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: on tonight, Gordy. We've got Broncos star Patrick Carrigan. We've 5 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: also got the Cowboy superstars Scott Drinkwater and Tom did 6 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: New Queensland as are taking over. 7 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 2: Mates, getting close to origin after Magic Ground? How good 8 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 2: is it? 9 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 3: Can't wait? 10 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: Interview those that they come up very soon to Bulldog 11 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: star Jacob Preston is fronting the Aneral judiciary appealing a 12 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 1: Grade one charge for a crusher tackle on Tino for 13 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: sua Mama. How we James Hooper is at Aneral HQ hoops. 14 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: What's the latest. 15 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 3: Evening, Brayful. 16 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 4: The Bulldogs have rolled out the big guns in an 17 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 4: attempt to try and get Jacob Preston found not guilty 18 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 4: of this Grade one crush at tackle. So they've got 19 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 4: coach Cameron Serralde here, They've got Chair Adam Drewissi here, 20 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 4: They've got CEO Aaron Warburton here, and they've also got 21 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 4: a hot shot Sydney criminal lawyer called Paul McGirr, who 22 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 4: is actually representing Jacob. So far, the NRL have shown 23 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 4: twelve different angles of the incident involving Jacob and Tina, 24 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,919 Speaker 4: and then when McGirr started to question Jacob about exactly 25 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 4: what he was doing throughout the tackle and even training 26 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 4: sessions in the lead up to the game. Jacob Preston 27 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 4: has actually told the NRL Judiciary that they focused a 28 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 4: hell of a lot on Teno for Sua mula Awi. 29 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 4: He is an excellent off flader. He also gains a 30 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 4: lot of post contact leaders so as a result, there 31 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 4: was a huge training focus on how to try and 32 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 4: safely limit his involvement in the game. He said they 33 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 4: specifically focused on not putting players in a vulnerable position, 34 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 4: but to be very wary of Teena's off flood. So 35 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 4: it's an interesting case so far. The still affair to 36 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 4: play out. We'll keep you updated over the course of 37 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 4: the evening. The men who are ultimately going to make 38 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 4: the decision Tony Paulatour, the Panthers champion forward and also 39 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 4: ex referee Paul Simpkin. They're the members of the NRAL 40 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 4: Judiciary panel who will decide whether Jacob Preston is guilty 41 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 4: and he gets a month on the sidelines. Not guilty, 42 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 4: he's free to play in the Super Saturday blockbuster against 43 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 4: the canber Raiders. 44 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 3: Braith, thank you, Hoops. 45 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: We're checking a little later to see how that's going 46 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,839 Speaker 1: with Jacob Preston. Now, as Hoops just alluded to three 47 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: to four weeks grade one charge, it has to be 48 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: worth contesting, doesn't it. 49 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 3: What would you guys not? 50 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 5: I think looking at that tackle, to me, it's a 51 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 5: crusher tackle. There's an argument there that Tina may have 52 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 5: been backing into the tackle. I don't see that. I 53 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 5: think they got him on the side, his legs left 54 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 5: the ground. I think it is a Grade one charge. 55 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 5: Is it worth four weeks? No way in the world. 56 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 5: And for mine, that's where the problem is with this system, 57 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 5: because it should not be a four week suspension for 58 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 5: that tackle. It's a very heavy handed charge, isn't it 59 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 5: four weeks for that? I mean, seriously, we're it's the system, Gordon, 60 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 5: but we're detected the next and that's fine. I get that, 61 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 5: but you're still going to break it down what passes 62 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 5: the pub test and regularly, because that's the most important 63 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 5: test we have in our game. And that doesn't pass. 64 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 5: There's no way that's four weeks. That's absurd. It was 65 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 5: a crusher tackle, well, it was a minimal, minimal force 66 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 5: on Tino's head break. I mean you can see his 67 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 5: body weight slips away there, it goes over the top. 68 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 3: Of his head. 69 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 5: That there's is too many extenuating circumstances in that tackle 70 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 5: to rub him out for a month. I still think 71 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 5: it's a crusher and I think it's an extremely dangerous tackle. 72 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 5: I'm not saying that's intentional, that's an accident. That's an 73 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 5: accident there. But but we've seen in the past that 74 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 5: the most minor crusher tackles can result in serious injury. 75 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 3: And he's not. 76 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: Wonder was the crusher around when you were playing for 77 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 2: No Like and I never felt that, So I don't 78 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 2: know what they feel like. 79 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 3: Is it worth fighting? Is it worth fighting for the dogs? 80 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: Is there a new South Wales? There's a chance. I 81 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 3: think it's fighting because it's only one game difference. 82 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: If he loses the charge and he can possibly get 83 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: off completely. If they've got a good argument, then they 84 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 1: go in there and put a good case forward. Worst 85 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: case is an extra game to try and eliminate three games. 86 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 3: I'd be fighting it for sure. 87 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: You know, if you look at this, I mean his 88 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: priors don't help because it's certainly not worth a three 89 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: or four weeker at all, whether it's a. 90 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 3: Crusher or not. 91 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, he gets himself in an acal position, or I 92 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: just struggle with the crusher because unless it's fully intentional, 93 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: this is completely accidental, and he tries. 94 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 3: To avoid it. In the end, he knows he is 95 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 3: in a bit of trouble. He lets him get through. 96 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: And I just struggle with a guy who's made making 97 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: a mistake, not intentionally trying to hurt the player, not 98 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: trying to whatever you try and do to perform a crusher, 99 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: I don't even know. 100 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 3: And then he is up for three or four weeks. 101 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 2: Still lands on the back of his neck. Now I 102 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 2: get that crul ever milked anything. No, if Tina doesn't 103 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 2: grab the back of his neck, would we be talking 104 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: about it. 105 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 5: Probably not. 106 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: Now he would have got and played the boy. Tino 107 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: took the next hit up off the next play. I 108 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: did hear that Tino actually did say something after the 109 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: game to support press the which means he may supply 110 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 1: evidence too in there for him. 111 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 5: You speak to the players these days and they are 112 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 5: terrified as to where they should and need to get 113 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 5: their bodies in tackles because of all the all positions 114 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 5: we now have in rugby league with grapples and all 115 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 5: sorts of these different tackles, chicken wings, et cetera, et cetera. 116 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 5: They don't know where they're supposed to be. Terrifying wings 117 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 5: different to this. This. This is an unfortunate accident, but 118 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 5: I still think it's a crusher. And you know, we 119 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 5: had Ethan Lowe a few years back and it was 120 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 5: the most minor contact when you go back to that tackle. 121 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 5: I think he was playing for the Cowboys at the 122 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 5: time against the Knines and when you watched it, you 123 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 5: couldn't really see what happened, but broken bone in his. 124 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 3: Neck it is. 125 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: That's why the truck got to protect the players too. 126 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: So it's totally understandable. It's just a bit of a 127 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: tricky one, this one. Now we'll get back to hoops 128 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: and aerial HQ a little later to see how this 129 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: is unfolding and if Jacob is free to play. It's 130 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: a big game, it's a massive game, and he's one 131 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: v two the Raiders taking on the Dogs, and how 132 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: good is this going to be. 133 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 5: It's the two teams this year that play with the 134 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 5: most passionate spirit and camaraderie. I think what the Bulldogs 135 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 5: have done last year and they've brought it into this year. 136 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 5: And the only team that you see consistently at the 137 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 5: moment equaling that level of passion and matship is the Raiders. 138 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 5: And a lot's been spoken about with the recruitment of 139 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 5: the Bulldogs and what a wonderful job they've done recruiting 140 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 5: players that not necessarily were on the top of everyone's 141 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 5: list and building this into this wonderful team. But the 142 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 5: Raiders is such a necessities you know, the mother of 143 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 5: all inventions sort of story. Like they lost Jack Whitten 144 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 5: a couple of years ago, and he took two one 145 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 5: hundred thousand dollars less a year than the Raiders were 146 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 5: prepared to offer him to go to SOUS because supposedly 147 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 5: he thought he could win a competition. And now the 148 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 5: Raiders have gone in and bought it a ton of 149 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 5: kids who other clubs probably didn't want or see as 150 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 5: their first choice, and they're sitting second on the ladder. 151 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 3: Very good point you make, because a lot of us. 152 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: I'dn't forgotten about that, right, Jack White the best player, 153 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: the captain wasn't he at the time memory to win 154 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: a premiership and he said that he left to go 155 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: to Souse and look at the two teams now, it's 156 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:36,559 Speaker 1: going to be a great game because the Bulldogs, although 157 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: it was probably a little bit different on the weekend, 158 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: the Bulldogs attacked really really well and scored a lot 159 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: of points and the Raiders didn't conceive many. But usually 160 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: the Raiders really lie on their attack and they're happy 161 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: to give points away. The Bulldogs really rely on their 162 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: defense and don't usually score as much as what the 163 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: Raiders would. So two contrasting styles sets up to be 164 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: an epic encounter just to see how it pans out 165 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: and who gets the better the other. 166 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 2: But both really hard working footage sides. When you watch 167 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 2: the Dogs now, like you see how hard they're working 168 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: for each other and the Raiders in a plight whey 169 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 2: they've turned into the bullies of the competition. They don't 170 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 2: take a backward step, you know. Papalli Tarpani huts and 171 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,679 Speaker 2: young like they're all getting in there and they're getting 172 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 2: in their groove and young Sauce having a great year. 173 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 2: So it's a great clash. It's toss of a coin. 174 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 5: If ever, a team reflects the personality their coaches. The 175 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 5: camp Raiders, they are just like Ricky Stewart, don't they. 176 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 5: They fight for everything, they never give in. It's just 177 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 5: it's it's it's seventeen. Ricky's put a. 178 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 3: Jersey on on the sideline, just number nineteen or something. 179 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 5: I mean, you can argue guys they're not so much 180 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 5: the ugly ducklings of the NRLL, but they don't get 181 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 5: much help down there. They've got to pay overs to 182 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 5: get a big name. They have to develop from within. 183 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 5: So for Ricky to get them where they are right now, 184 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,599 Speaker 5: I don't think we're paying them enough, Hoss. It's not 185 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 5: a matter of even paying overs to get a big name. 186 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 5: Even when they offer overs, they can't get a big 187 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 5: They still can't. They throw their hat in the ring 188 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 5: for all the big players that come off. They just 189 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 5: won't go there. So they've gone and recruited guys like 190 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 5: you know, Strange and and k Weeks like. 191 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: They're starting to come along with those young kids and 192 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 2: big pupaar in Tarpani and as I said, like their 193 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: food packs, hard. 194 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 3: Working, a lot of skill in it as well. Do 195 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 3: you reckon a job? 196 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 5: Do you reckon Ricky's telling that team they can win 197 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 5: the camp Because I know what Ricky's like. I don't 198 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 5: think he would have moment for the belief that they 199 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 5: can win this comp. It's only early. I get it. 200 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 3: I still reckoned. 201 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 2: They reckon we're going to get the wooden spoon us 202 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: against the world, not that yet. 203 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 3: Don't look at the end. We let's live here and 204 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: that's right. 205 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: Like as a coach, you're not going to talk about 206 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: Grand Finals. You just don't go there. 207 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 5: It's self belief though. Yeah, of course Ricky has their building. 208 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 5: They've done nothing. They've done nothing at this stage. That's 209 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 5: what Ricky would be telling the players. They've done nothing, 210 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 5: like they're going into this Bulldogs game. And we saw 211 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 5: with the Bulldogs a couple of weeks ago when they 212 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 5: came up against the Broncos that perhaps they got ahead 213 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 5: of themselves. And it's a real danger when teams have 214 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 5: a good run of form that they can start reading 215 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 5: their own press and start listening to what other people 216 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 5: may say about I mean, that's the big danger I 217 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 5: guess with the Raiders this week. 218 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 3: It's been awesome. 219 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: It's been great to see the Bulldogs obviously have been 220 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: on the improved for a number of years now and 221 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: that's great for their fans, but also for Raiders fans 222 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: down there in camera to see their team coming second 223 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: at the moment is pretty special. Have you They can 224 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: continue that form now. Breaking news this afternoon, Dom Young 225 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,479 Speaker 1: has been given permission to negotiate with other clubs, effective immediately. 226 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 3: I believe you guys got anything on this. 227 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, the Newcastle Knights are the clear early favorites. I 228 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 5: made a few calls in and around the Knights this afternoon. 229 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 5: It has been mooted that he may find an erall 230 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 5: club for the rest of this year and then sign 231 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 5: a two year deer with Newcastle. But the Knights are 232 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 5: saying that won't be happening. If he doesn't come now, 233 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 5: he's not coming at all. I think Newcastle want him 234 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 5: in their side for round eleven. The deal's got to 235 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 5: be the right one for Newcastle too often the Knights. 236 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: We'll get to that, Dolly. That's interesting and we want 237 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: to know more about that. But what's happened at the Roosters? 238 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: Why have they told him the guard. They've got a fear, 239 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: but a depth in that area you go through. You 240 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: got Robert Toyer, now that's it. Well, you got Robert 241 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: Toy there. Now is he surplus to needs? Is he 242 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: needed there? Well he wasn't when he came. 243 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 5: Correct, But I'm saying lawyers come through. You've still got two. 244 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 3: A couple of wins in Smith. You know, I'm riding 245 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 3: the chicks. 246 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 5: He's only a month into a four year deer. But 247 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 5: I don't think there's anything sinister behind me. 248 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 3: I think it's a bad look. 249 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 5: I just don't think it's really doubt. 250 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: I'm not suggesting there's anything sinister. 251 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 3: I'm just asking the question, why, you know? 252 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: Is it just because they've got the young guns have 253 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: stood up the last few weeks, that's it. 254 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 5: I've scored twenty twenty two tries last year, so it 255 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 5: was a fair year. But this year it just looks 256 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 5: like an uncomfortable fit to me, And in fact, even 257 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 5: last year it just looked a bit of an uncomfortable fit. 258 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 5: Look a big ugly ducting. There's been a few, though, 259 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 5: hasn't there at the Roosters in recent seasons that have 260 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 5: gone there with a lot of clubs chasing them that 261 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 5: just haven't worked out. You think Brandon Smith, you think 262 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 5: Matt Load, you think you know Dom Young. Like Dom Young, 263 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 5: the reason that the Roosters wanted him is because he 264 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 5: was killing it at Newcastle. 265 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: I said a few weeks ago, I thought he'd been 266 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: struggling all year. To be honest, I don't think it's 267 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: happened the last couple of weeks. Dom six foot six' 268 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: five and he's over one hundred kilos and runs like the, 269 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: wind and he just hasn't given. 270 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: Them what they've. 271 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: Needed he runs out of his own hand and haven't 272 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: been haven't had, impact. 273 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 3: And there's no, robuster enthusiastic. 274 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 5: Defensive he was doing that At newcastle point coming he 275 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 5: was charging out of the. 276 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: Backfield that's my, point you. 277 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: Know and even he finishing finishes and his reads on the, 278 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: edges it hasn't been up to par and certainly not 279 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: up to the money that he's being. Paid SO i 280 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: actually think no offense To Dom. YOUNG i think it's 281 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: a good move by the. 282 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 3: CHICKS i. DO i think it's the right call and 283 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 3: he'll be to pay For. 284 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 5: Roosters newcastle said Today gordy privately that they aren't going 285 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 5: to just accept. Anything they've, said this is the rooster's. 286 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 5: Issue it's not up to us to fix their. Problems 287 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 5: if the deal is, right they'll do. It there's a 288 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 5: sneaking suspicion At newcastle that they're trying to get rid 289 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,079 Speaker 5: of Doom young to make way for Daily Cherry. Evans 290 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 5: Oka that is the feeling up there in The Hunter. 291 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 5: Valley But newcastle was saying publicly it's not our job 292 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 5: to make way For Cherry. Evans you met the, deal. 293 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 3: So you're saying The newcastle won't put a cent into. 294 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 5: It they will put some money in break but the 295 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 5: deal has to be. Right they've said before we've made 296 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 5: some poor deals through mid season transfers and they're not 297 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 5: going to repeat the same mistakes. Again the deal's got 298 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 5: to be right For Bridoth off the top of, HEAD 299 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 5: i can't, remember But newcastle have had a litany of 300 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 5: problems over the years in terms of recruitment and. Retention 301 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 5: but if it's not, right they'll, say we don't Want 302 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 5: it's not our job to boil the roosters. 303 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: Out thoughts on THE dc. Situation do you think they're 304 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: freeing up money to get him in. 305 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 5: THERE i think he's. GONE i think it's just a 306 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 5: matter of when they announce. It the talk around THE 307 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 5: nrl at the moment is THAT dce will be at The. 308 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 5: Roosters it will be a one year. Deal people at 309 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 5: rival clubs and they might not know what they're talking, 310 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 5: about but they're talking a million dollar plus deal for one. 311 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 5: Season it's one, season because it was that's What i'm 312 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 5: being top one. Year one. 313 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 3: Year it was talking was a. Two so you're hearing 314 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 3: now more so it's a Worse. 315 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 5: That was the talk that was going around town. Today, 316 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 5: yeah and who knows if that is all on the salary, 317 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 5: cap or if there's third party is involved or. Whatever 318 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 5: however they make the. DEAL i don't think there's any 319 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 5: doubt in the world That Cherry evans will be at The. 320 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: Roosters it would make sense then to Let Dom young 321 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: go to free up some money for, that wouldn't. 322 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 5: It, well you can let a wing ago clear up 323 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 5: your cap to some, degree you've got a lot of, 324 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 5: depth then it frees up FOR. Dc it all makes, 325 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 5: Sense well it does until it. Doesn't and the last 326 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 5: thing The Newcastle knights need at the, moment after spending 327 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 5: all that money On Dylan brown is to spend five 328 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 5: hundred thousand dollars a year for a winger that The 329 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 5: roosters don't want it got enough running cross come to some, 330 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 5: agreement of course they want it'll be two or three. 331 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 5: Hundred in that point you get. Thrown The roosters won't 332 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 5: free up five. Hundred. Mate but if you get Don 333 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 5: mount for three, hundred you take him any other? 334 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 3: Week, definitely definitely for.
