1
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to L three sixty Rugby League. From every angle,

2
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: bats you buy Ford Everest joining me, the Great Gordon

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: Tallis in the Journal Australian Buzz Rock and Brent Reid

4
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,159
Speaker 1: and on a weekend of rugby League it was the

5
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: Broncos are back, the sharkis well, they're nose diving and

6
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 1: the Rooster's really they're going right, they're going.

7
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 2: They came out they Yeah, never in doubt, bro never doubt,

8
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 2: that's for sure. Yeah, maybe maybe I did.

9
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: Have you changed your mind?

10
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 2: I've said on here several times break I think Frent

11
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 2: Robinson's coaching his socks off at the moment, and I

12
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 2: stand by that he's doing a great job with them.

13
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: Really well. Put the line through them.

14
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 2: I did put a line through them about two months ago.

15
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: Said they wouldn't be in contention. What about the Sharks.

16
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, disappointing, mate. I can't defend them here.

17
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 4: You can't blow sixteen point leads the manner in which

18
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 4: they did yesterday.

19
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: Very very disappointing.

20
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: We're going to have to defend them in about ten minutes.

21
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 3: Best Brady, it's hard to do.

22
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: You always do your best. I love your opinions to

23
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: Tom Draboviach has front of the media as the superstar

24
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: fallback makes a move into the centers and mainly desperately

25
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: try to get this season back on track.

26
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, look, it's that's just all external noise to us.

27
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 5: We know where we want to go as as a

28
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 5: footy club, and and yeah, that that's a a certain

29
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 5: noise we're not going to get to us where we're

30
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 5: focused on what we need to do.

31
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 2: How'd you go on your set on the h Yeah?

32
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 6: Good, Yeah, I went, well what did you have to say?

33
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 7: What you do?

34
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 5: I'm not going to go into everything that was discussed.

35
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 5: It's just not a platform to do that.

36
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 2: It's on the decision you to go to center this

37
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 2: sweet is that one you made?

38
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 5: Look, it's it's a decision that I think when you

39
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 5: look at it. Obviously I had a lot of being

40
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 5: pot from the coaches, but you know, we've got someone

41
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 5: like Layer. There's a very good fallback and some different

42
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 5: change for me and one of I'm excited for.

43
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: I had the coaches done studies and all that with you,

44
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: and there wasn't that much difference in the physicality at all.

45
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 2: Is that is that right?

46
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 5: Or so? I don't really dive too deeply into those studies.

47
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 5: You'd have to ask someone smarter than meat and do

48
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 5: it that out Danny, but at it, yeah, you have

49
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 5: to ask him. I'm not I'm not hun. I'm not

50
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 5: going to stand him before you. I'm an expert and

51
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 5: physical output when it comes to playing in position. But

52
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 5: all I know is I'm excited.

53
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: This Friday night, that was a bit awkward there with

54
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: Denny Turbo Thoms, Avoid's superstar fullback now center. Gordy says

55
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: that the decision seems to be obviously made by the coaches.

56
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: Do we think he looks or he's unhappy about it?

57
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 7: I suppose it'd probably be a little bit of a

58
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 7: hit to the ego because that was his position and

59
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 7: he's arguably one of the best fullbacks ever to grace

60
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 7: the footy field. But I think the injuries that he's had,

61
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 7: the way Hop Hop Award he's playing, I think the move,

62
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 7: you know, may have sort of forced their hand a

63
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 7: little bit.

64
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: Really you were there or were you there?

65
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 2: You mean, didn't we got into the side break that

66
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 2: was the TV interview that.

67
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 8: Newspapers No, no, no, I didn't don't start me off. Look,

68
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 8: he was disappointed there's no doubt about that break. When

69
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 8: we spoke to him to the side, I actually said,

70
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 8: we are shocked by and he said, yeah, definitely. And

71
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 8: you know, he's a great player who's made his name

72
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 8: as a great fullback in this game. And I don't

73
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 8: blame him for being you'd be disappointed if he wasn't disappointed. Yes,

74
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 8: in the fact he's been moved, and I don't think

75
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 8: this is necessary a permanent thing.

76
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 2: I think this will be. The reason he's been moved

77
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 2: is get his confidence back, get some belief back in

78
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,519
Speaker 2: his body. And I think once he gets that, I

79
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 2: think he'd be back at full back.

80
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: Was it in the media before he found out?

81
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: I don't think so, Broth. I think he found out

82
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: at that meeting. He had those mid season reviews they

83
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 2: had on Monday last week, and I think he knew

84
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: about it. He was informed about it, and then it

85
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 2: came out after that.

86
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 4: So I find this a bit disrespectful to the player.

87
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 3: We talk in all time club legend. We're talking.

88
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 4: I've seen Slater, I've seen t Desk, I've seen Turbo,

89
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 4: and Turbo is right up there and the best fullback

90
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 4: I've ever seen play this game. And to move to

91
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 4: such a dramatic move from wearing that number one jersey

92
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 4: which he's owned at that football club for a very.

93
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 3: Long period of time. It needs to be a joint decision.

94
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 4: It needed turbos buy in, and I thought he's earned

95
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 4: that buy in from his service to the club to

96
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 4: do it in a joint decision with Seabolt. Now, the

97
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 4: first we knew about this happening, I don't know if

98
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 4: Turbo was told first. We read about it online and

99
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 4: in the newspaper. For such a big move, I think

100
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 4: it's disrespectful to the player reading.

101
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 3: I'm not sure he's on board with this.

102
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 2: I don't think he's Buzz's no doubt he's not happy

103
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 2: about it. You could tell from his demeanor today. There's

104
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: no doubt.

105
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: He's not that.

106
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 3: But you don't think he's earned from what he's done

107
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:50,679
Speaker 3: for that club.

108
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 4: And you go back to the dalm You and I

109
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 4: know he's missed a lot of footy games, so I

110
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 4: know he's had he struggles with fitness.

111
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 3: To do a decision, you need him on board.

112
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: I'll ask you. You've played with some big, big names,

113
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: something great of our game, and Tommy's up there right, Yes,

114
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: do you think he deserved more respect and should have

115
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: been consulted.

116
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 7: I'm a consulted No, No, you consult the best player.

117
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 7: So I got no doubt when Darren Locky moved from

118
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 7: fullback to five eight, right, he would have been asked,

119
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 7: and you know, and if he said no, in the end,

120
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 7: if he goes no, but sometimes you've got to put

121
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 7: the team first. I think Tommy would have put the

122
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 7: team first if they asked. But I'm surprised if they

123
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 7: didn't go to him, say listen, Tommy, we're thinking of

124
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 7: moving you to the centers. What do you think.

125
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: Let's remember during the off season, was he trained from

126
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 2: memory at five eight at one point? You know, because

127
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 2: I think about tinkering with the team. I think about

128
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 2: tinkering with the side to fit the Eige hop Arty

129
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 2: and the fullback. So you know, admittedly maybe this has

130
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 2: been thrown on him in circumstances that shocked him. But

131
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 2: the thought of moving Tommy and playing in other positions,

132
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 2: the club's been talking about this for a while.

133
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 4: I think manly. I think manly since the Cherry Evans announcement,

134
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 4: have been playing like bustards. They've had two or three

135
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 4: good games since then, the rest they've been terrible.

136
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 3: I think there's a lot more.

137
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 4: Going wrong at that football club than Tom Turbo at

138
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 4: the back. Yes, I know he's struggling and he has

139
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 4: not been himself this year, but there are other positions

140
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 4: in that side, particularly where there's so lighter on the

141
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 4: middles and they're down on strength and Cherry Evans his

142
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 4: own form. They've got a captain leading them out there

143
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 4: every single week who does not want to be there.

144
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 4: I think there are bigger issues there and there's no

145
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 4: question he's moved to the centers.

146
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:38,239
Speaker 3: Is a demotion.

147
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: It is wrote a passionate defensive siege on the weekend

148
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: in the paper. Is it the players photo? Is you

149
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: tend to think it's the players that have the response? Well?

150
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: I think so.

151
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 2: The players are going to wear some of the responsibility

152
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: for the way the team's going. I mean, Buzz just

153
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 2: said it. Then they didn't play well since Day came

154
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 2: out and publicly announced he was going to leave the club.

155
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 2: We still don't know where he's going.

156
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 3: I mean this, we don't know where he's going.

157
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 2: Well, okay, he hasn't announced where he's going. We all

158
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 2: know where he's going, but he hasn't announced, He hasn't

159
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 2: ended the conjecture, Breath, you know, and I think Tommy,

160
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: by his own mission, has been down on form this year.

161
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 2: I think Tommy is open and Jake's openly admitted that

162
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 2: he's been down on form. So it's easy to put

163
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 2: the finger at Seas. But that's your three highest paid players.

164
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 2: They've been missing Taniella Perseca since about round two or something.

165
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 2: He's one of their highest paid players as well. There

166
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 2: are extenuating circumstances for the way this team's playing at

167
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:29,559
Speaker 2: the moment.

168
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: A big partner is for a coach to get the

169
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: best out of it.

170
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: That's true as well, Breath. I'm not saying I'm not

171
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: saying he should be he's blameless. I'm saying that it's

172
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,559
Speaker 2: got to go both ways. And I think that Buzz.

173
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: I think the idea of moving Tommy is also to

174
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 2: help Tommy. I think the view is from Seas. Potentially

175
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 2: I can get Tommy back, take a bit of heat

176
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 2: off him. Playing in the centers, he can rediscovery find

177
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: his confidence again, his body can rebuild itself and when

178
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,679
Speaker 2: he's playing well, they will playing with football. Because Tony

179
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: Mastel said it today, buzz. He's still there be fullback

180
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 2: when he's at his best.

181
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with it, and I said it last

182
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: week Leo. He's playing very good. He's play his best

183
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: at fullback. He's young, he is fit, He's only going

184
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: to get better. Tom just seems to struggle with his

185
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: fitness even at his best. At the moment, he doesn't

186
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: seem to be one hundred percent fit and that's been

187
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: for quite a while now. Yes, they if they didn't

188
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: consult him about it, they should have. Definitely is a

189
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: club legend. But really the actual decision I don't think

190
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 1: is a bad one. Do you guys actually think it's

191
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: a bad move?

192
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 7: I don't.

193
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, Look, as I said, time will tell. You know,

194
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 4: they've got two home games that winnable games, They've got

195
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 4: sous and they've got the West Tiger, So time will tell.

196
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: So what happens the next beat them too.

197
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 4: If they don't beat them, those two Anthony Sea bubbles

198
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 4: in big trouble. I heard you on the show last

199
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 4: week you wanted to give him all time seeps.

200
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 2: Well, Mestro said today he's our coach.

201
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 4: You know what, Mestop keeps changing because last week he

202
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,080
Speaker 4: said at this stage, he kept saying.

203
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,839
Speaker 2: He's admitted today he said today that was a poor

204
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 2: choice of words, and that Anthony Seabob will be their coach.

205
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 1: And let's be honest, quickly, Becazz, they lose the next

206
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: two against those two teams.

207
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 2: You're he will finish the season break. I can't believe

208
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 2: they would get rid of him. They're not going to

209
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 2: get rid of him after the next two. Who they're

210
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 2: going to put in, like, who's going to be the coach?

211
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: So what happens if so, you think he lasts the

212
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 1: rest of the year at least, Yes, what if they

213
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: fall off a Clifford back end of.

214
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 2: The year, Well, then he's in all sorts. It's pretty obvious.

215
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 2: Next year you think, well he's in trouble.

216
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 1: Yeah.

217
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 2: I would have thought it's a long off season for him.

218
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 4: Yes, so on paper, and we all said at the

219
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 4: start of the year when they had that blazing start

220
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 4: of the year, we all thought they were a top

221
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 4: four roster and they fell in a heap after the

222
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 4: announcement and anything outside the finals this year is a

223
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 4: complete and failure and he will struggle.

224
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 2: It's a failure if they don't play finals foot and

225
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 2: he I'm sure Anthony will acknowledge if they don't play

226
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 2: finals football seasons of failure.

227
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: All right on your team, buzz. The Sharks are on

228
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: the Verger, dropping out of the top eight after blowing

229
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: a sixteen point lead against the Broncos. His how it unfolded,

230
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: stiff it down.

231
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 9: Short side, trend All away and Tarmacai scores for Cranalla Trendle.

232
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 9: They've got that stretch will turn steps Walsh, Wilton all

233
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 9: the way channe a skull trendies.

234
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 7: Back to Walsh.

235
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 9: What's the spiral, Bob, it's got it. It's allowed to

236
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 9: bounce time and then mother tamer and white. Raymond's gonna

237
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 9: say that forward there for Walsh.

238
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 3: Fir flights up flat, had a John Lake shipper turkey.

239
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 9: And a twenty three minute again and then Dreddall has

240
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 9: put it out on the floor.

241
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 7: Held by the arm.

242
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 3: Gone away from that.

243
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 9: I missed him on over the top. Tana Pani's guys,

244
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 9: now one side that I don't sing that on that

245
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 9: class I kicked towards her posts lies there it is,

246
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,239
Speaker 9: it's long, it's long.

247
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 3: The game on the line down by six.

248
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: That's a bad kick for a gun number seven.

249
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 9: Where'sbona jump back bella.

250
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 1: Thirty four twenty That was a turning point thanks to

251
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 1: Ashley Martin Medical Hair Centers and what's going on with

252
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 1: the Cronulla Sharks buzz.

253
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 4: Look, I'm not one hundred percent sure I will say

254
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 4: this about the Cronulla roster.

255
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 3: It has been very, very stable for two years.

256
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 4: And outside of signing signing Adam vanua Blake, they've hardly

257
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 4: signed the player. So Craig fitz given backed himself to

258
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 4: get more out of his current players.

259
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 3: He's done that for two years. It's not happening this year.

260
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 1: One of it.

261
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 4: He's got two players on a million dollars. Adam fanua

262
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 4: Blake started strong. I think he's really faded off and

263
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 4: he doesn't have anywhere near the impact he had early

264
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 4: in the season. I think that was there for all

265
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 4: to see the last Nicol Hines, the other million dollar

266
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 4: player at halfback, trying his guts out every week. But

267
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 4: there are a couple of errors in his performance yesterday,

268
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 4: particularly at the back end. A kick on the last

269
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 4: tackle gave Broncos a seven tackle restart than he did.

270
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 2: A knock on.

271
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 4: Let's come and when you're on that brass as you know,

272
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 4: you've got to shut games.

273
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: To do and you think you should be moving a fallback.

274
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: Is that right?

275
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 3: I don't know.

276
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: You don't know what you do well.

277
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 4: I said in McCollum today that Daniel Atkinson and Trendall

278
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 4: as the halves combination for a large part of last year.

279
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 4: We're getting Kranala the best results they've had in two years.

280
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 4: Trendle when he has more control over that side from

281
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 4: half back. That's what earned him a seven hundred thousand

282
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 4: dollars contract playing whether Atkinson was soing so good Saint

283
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 4: George signed him. I want to see that halves combination going,

284
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 4: but Nicol has to be in the side somewhere.

285
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 3: Is it harsh on Kennedy?

286
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 4: Kennedy was leading the dally Ms early but not going

287
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 4: Brilliants been dropping.

288
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 7: For Yeah, Nico doesn't have the speed to go to the fullback.

289
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 7: He doesn't score those. Yeah, I know, I know. But

290
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 7: he played that six or eight games at the Storm

291
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 7: and got this million dollar contract. And if I was

292
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 7: going to move him there, I say, I'd have to

293
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 7: move him to lock and telling him to put the

294
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 7: mouth goat. Then I'll go by two and you're going

295
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 7: to play that sort of role.

296
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: We all know how Nico, how good Nico can be,

297
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: like we've seen it. We've seen it, we just haven't

298
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: seen enough of it. And at times his hear he

299
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: showed glimpses of it, even in periods of games. But

300
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: the problem with Niko is when the game's on the

301
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: line and you said it buzz, you need your men

302
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: and all the players, you need your big guns to

303
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 1: stand up. And I feel like he's lacked confidence now

304
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 1: for quite a while. And when you lack confidence, you

305
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: play with hesitation. And hesitation in the hearts. I've said

306
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: on the show before is the biggest killer, and you

307
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: can see it. He just seems to hesitate. He seems

308
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: unsure about himself. He's not that player that has give

309
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: me the ball. I'm going to win our team game

310
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: and he needs to be so he's under suppression Nico.

311
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: But you tend to think that it's more Trendle not Nico.

312
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 2: Well, I don't think Trendle's set the world on fire breath.

313
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 2: I think it's easy to put the finger at nickover

314
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 2: because he's the high profile guy that's been wearing a

315
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 2: lot of the blame for the last year. Well, he's

316
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 2: at the focus on over a year and now, yeah,

317
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 2: some of it is, but I think Trindle has to

318
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 2: wear some of its well breath. I mean he's on

319
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 2: a good wick of too bu.

320
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 4: The best fort him. When they charged himTo the finals

321
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 4: last year, Nicko was hurting. He was dropped from Origin.

322
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 4: It was trendle and that control and you can't.

323
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 2: Play you can't play Nicko fullback.

324
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 4: Think that's why when Rath asked me, I said, I

325
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 4: don't know. I'm not sure if he's a fullback. He

326
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 4: could be locked forward, but they're running out of options

327
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 4: for a million dollar player has to start.

328
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 2: I think Fitz has got Look, you put the money,

329
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 2: you've invested the money in. Fitz's got to find a

330
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 2: way to get him going. That's why Fitz's on the bay.

331
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 3: We're seventeen. We're seventeen.

332
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 2: You're too far on now, Halves. You've got to find

333
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 2: a way to get a working buzz for me because

334
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 2: they're not going to win a camp with Braden Triingle

335
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 2: and Daniel Atkinson Harves, which you respect to those two guys.

336
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, but in the opening segment you were quite happy

337
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 4: for Tom to move for the betterment of the Manly.

338
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 3: So you're not happy for Nico to move because.

339
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 2: They've got a better option. Mainly got a better option.

340
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 2: Hop White is a good option. I'm saying, here's your

341
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 2: best option.

342
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: They are six points clear of fifth, but it's the

343
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: way they're losing the concerns over a performance like yesterday

344
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: in the last month. Really they beat the Dragons.

345
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 4: They were tailed up by a rooster's side at Arliott

346
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 4: Stadium and towed up.

347
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 3: They conceded forty points.

348
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,119
Speaker 1: The Central coast. Think it was a buzz.

349
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 4: Where it was and the Roosters were about five State

350
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 4: of origin players. Now this should be Cornala's time of

351
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 4: the year. They do not have one origin player. They've

352
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 4: had no interruptions whatsoever. The Broncos were there.

353
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 7: To be beaten. Yesterday. I was getting sent to the

354
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 7: sin bin. Was I think nearly the stupidest sinmin that

355
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 7: I've seen from a winger. There's like fifty seconds to

356
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 7: go before the halftime break and they give it away.

357
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 7: When they were playing through the middle. They really troubled

358
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 7: Brisbane when they played off Brawley through the middle and

359
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 7: the half backs chimed in. But when they but but

360
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 7: then when the game was on the line and they

361
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 7: tried to take control and grab their reins. They couldn't

362
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 7: get from it, and they made errors that going through

363
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,239
Speaker 7: the middle was it was going through them, was terrorizing

364
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 7: their three on both sides in between the half and center.

365
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: They just count kept breaking them down that first half,

366
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: and they went away from it. So let's let's round

367
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: this off. Do they pull the trigger and move him

368
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: or do they keep him at seven for the rest

369
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: of the year.

370
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 2: I think you've got to stick with him breath. I think,

371
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: as I said, we were watching those highlights the first half,

372
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 2: there was nothing wrong with the one Nico played in

373
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 2: the first half. I mean you saw the highlights there,

374
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 2: just creating tries, his scoring tries. It's there. It's there

375
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 2: and hard.

376
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: To hand someone confidence though, you know, like you say,

377
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: Craig fitsgiven, it's up to him, but it's not really

378
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: it's up to Nickeo.

379
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 2: But it can go like that break. He can get

380
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 2: it back in a second hand.

381
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: But it's been missing for a while.

382
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,400
Speaker 2: But there's been games we've been really good they break.

383
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 1: I agree. I don't want to just know it's not

384
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 1: a Nicko bashing because we've seen him place in brillan

385
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: footy this year. But it's just consistently throughout a whole

386
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: game and then getting them over the line, which he struggled.

387
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: So buzz is he a fullback or not? You look

388
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: a bit well, you.

389
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 4: Know I saw him play fullback very capably of Melbourne

390
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 4: Storm and he did have speedback in those days.

391
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 1: Right.

392
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 4: All I know is the spotlight is on him now.

393
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 4: The blow torches on him now for one simple reason.

394
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 4: He's on a six million dollar contract. When you sign up,

395
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 4: it's the face of the club. On that sort of money,

396
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 4: you expected to perform weekend weekend.

397
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: You're not right, You're not wrong, all right? Now the

398
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: Broncos are back baby Army Camps, Harbor Cruise, an absolute

399
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 1: master stroke from the great Manage McGuire.

400
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 4: Have you had a look at the premiership lad there's

401
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 4: six points off fourth place, coming fifth bus Yeah, I

402
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 4: know they're coming fifth.

403
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 3: They've beaten the Titans and they've beaten from the second half.

404
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: What do you mean you've got let imagine how's time

405
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: to shine?

406
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 4: Well, you know he's turned that club around, Reese Walsh

407
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 4: has turned that club around.

408
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 3: Against good on him.

409
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 4: What I will say though, if beat them on the weekend,

410
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 4: there'll be eight points outside of the top four. I

411
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 4: think there's one side that could possibly win this compount

412
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 4: side the top four, and that is the Penrith Panthers

413
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 4: the Broncos. I think it's really exciting that they have

414
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 4: come good, but there is a hell of a long

415
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 4: way to go in this camp.

416
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, very sure, real well, I think they're back for me.

417
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 2: I think that's pretty clear after the last couple of

418
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 2: weeks buzz, it's pretty clear that you know, you know

419
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 2: what was interesting. They look really fit on the weekend

420
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 2: in the second half, so they're obviously training hard and

421
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 2: it's paying off.

422
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:57,959
Speaker 7: I don't tell you something. I don't give Pain has

423
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 7: some carrying arrest. They'll fall off Cliff like he's played

424
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 7: I think sixteen games in a row. Painhasse was injured

425
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 7: like they couldn't get back on site at some stages,

426
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 7: and they kept on running them out. If they really

427
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 7: want to give the title a shot, which they can,

428
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,159
Speaker 7: rees Walsh a measure man like once they get their

429
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 7: running threat and they can just jump outside.

430
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 2: It's hard than the rest players.

431
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 7: They're going to have to listen.

432
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 2: You can't when you're struggling.

433
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,360
Speaker 7: A really good point. What did Penrith do on the weekend?

434
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 2: Well, that's true, that's true, So how hard was that?

435
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 2: The good point?

436
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 7: The confidence.

437
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 4: Who's been the genius at rest the Origin players over

438
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 4: the years of Craig Bellam and you look at the

439
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 4: Storm success. They're always thereabouts with a minor premiership. You

440
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 4: cannot with the intensity, big boys.

441
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 3: You can't.

442
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 1: You're desperate times, desperate measures, right, yeah, but you're both.

443
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: I agree, felt sorry for Pain's.

444
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 4: And you guys know this, with sports, you've got to

445
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 4: take long term approach and it's far more important from

446
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 4: rounds twenty to twenty seven to have them fully fit,

447
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:08,360
Speaker 4: fresh and ready to.

448
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 7: Go and look looking like pain. Hans is not like yes,

449
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 7: and you know what, what a game he had backing up,

450
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 7: but he ain't looking like that. He ain't looking like

451
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,120
Speaker 7: he's running through his not free he needs.

452
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 1: There were some mascuses on the Harbor cruise though, spar bar.

453
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 4: Anthony about and what did they do on Fort Dennis

454
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 4: and a cultural experience? They did ice bars straight after

455
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 4: the Harbor cruise.

456
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: Come on, give him some credit.

457
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 4: I'm really happy for Seriously, it's great for the comp

458
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 4: they're playing well, but all I'm saying is let's wait

459
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 4: about six weeks.

460
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: The jury is still out bus, the jury is still that.

461
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 1: After ducking and diving for weeks, Bronco's CEO Dave Donnahey

462
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: finally faced the music when he appeared on radio yesterday afternoon.

463
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, I met with Selwyn's management as recently as last week.

464
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 6: To be candid, we're probably a fair way apart, but

465
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 6: you know, we're not without hope having a challenging run

466
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 6: at the moment on field, but you know he'll bounce

467
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 6: back and we're well trying to wrap our arms around

468
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 6: and to help support him.

469
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 2: I think you've only got about three hundred thousand left

470
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 2: that won't keep.

471
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 6: So I think ultimately, you know, when we look at

472
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 6: our salary cap hoops, there's a pie. It has to

473
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 6: get cut up. They're the conversations that we're having internally.

474
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 2: There's all sorts of headlines. There was all sorts of

475
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 2: noise about since Michael maguire has arrived at the Broncos.

476
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 6: I thought a lot of it was a lot of nonsense.

477
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 3: We'd a challenging run on field.

478
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 6: To look at it in isolations just a little bit

479
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 6: narrow for me. We've got Ezra Man on the sidelines

480
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 6: and Reese Walsh gets injured. So where not where we'd

481
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 6: like to be in terms of wins and losses, but

482
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 6: certainly be some positive progress.

483
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 2: Do you believe that the club made the right decision

484
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: to sack Kevy Wilders and to bring bad Gin?

485
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 3: We made a decision.

486
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,360
Speaker 6: It was an incredibly difficult decision, and that's the reality

487
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 6: of it.

488
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 3: Kevy's a great of our club.

489
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 6: He put his heart and soul into the place for

490
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 6: four years, but thirty years, sorry, Gordy, thirty years four

491
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 6: years as a coach and did a wonderful job. But

492
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 6: we did feel that it was time for a change,

493
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 6: and we do feel like it was the right decision.

494
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 1: Yes, this was on Triple M yesterday afternoon, Gordy, you

495
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 1: were there, went for about twenty minutes. What did you

496
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: make of it?

497
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 7: The cell on Cobo one was a little bit funny

498
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 7: to me because I think he is the future of

499
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 7: the organization. If you look the way Catni Stags. They've

500
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 7: got two thirty five year old number sevens that was

501
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 7: a priority, and they signed another hooker like they resigned

502
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 7: another hooker where they've got five and they got this

503
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 7: young talent and they leave three hundred thousand, which I

504
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 7: think is a little bit disrespectful to a State of

505
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 7: origin player. And I don't think he's lost that much

506
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 7: mojo in my opinion. When I watched him play when

507
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 7: Response was out and he went back to fullback, he

508
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 7: kept them in a few of those games. But obviously

509
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 7: they don't want him because I went that much money.

510
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 4: Sell and Cobo was in Sydney last week or the

511
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 4: week before and he visited the St. Georgialla set up

512
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 4: and he spoke to coach Shane Flanagan. You know what

513
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 4: money he was asking for. They're asking about six fifty

514
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 4: seven hundred. That's what he's on there was it and

515
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 4: St George were quite keen to do a deal for

516
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 4: a little bit less than that, but wanted to him

517
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,360
Speaker 4: this year because they've had injuries in the three quarter line.

518
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 4: I don't think it's going to be happened. But what

519
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 4: it does show is how far the Broncos are off

520
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 4: the pace with what the kid and the manager are

521
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 4: looking for. They're not They're halfway there.

522
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: Well, let's be honest. Like day you said there's still

523
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: a chance of keeping him, but really they're not not

524
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: three hundred.

525
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 2: That's that's my point is that no, unless they foind

526
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 2: another two or three hundred grand breath and clubs, the.

527
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 7: Reynolds with the third party, the three hundred dinner.

528
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 2: Clubs can do that, right, but they need to. Sometimes

529
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 2: they just move a couple of blokes and juggle some

530
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 2: funds around. They find the money. So but at the moment,

531
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 2: you know, I know, Gord, you're saying you thought he

532
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 2: was good when he played fullback for a couple of games,

533
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 2: but don't need to fall back. They need him to

534
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 2: play well when he's on the wing, and he hasn't

535
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 2: been playing well. That's why he's in reserve bating. And

536
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:06,640
Speaker 2: the kid has come in.

537
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 7: From maybe he's playing for injuries.

538
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 4: Maybe maybe you talk about the old halves they signed.

539
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 4: It's interesting one Ben Hunt because when he comes back

540
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,640
Speaker 4: from Indrey, I don't think he's going to play far day.

541
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 4: I think as MAM's comfortable there and it is obviously

542
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 4: the future. I'm not sure with that young hooker there

543
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 4: God who has been Yeah, I'm not sure.

544
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 2: I think he's off contract.

545
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 3: But what I'm saying that.

546
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 1: Would be a big call from who he plays out

547
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 1: of pace Billy as well.

548
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 4: Sounds yeah, But what I'm saying is signing Hunt for

549
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 4: those two years not necessarily. The Reynolds extension might be

550
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 4: what costs Selwyn Cobber a spot at that club long term.

551
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 2: Well potentially, but I imagine that they're looking their spine

552
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 2: next year as Ben hunted hooker, and he is a

553
00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: pretty good hooker, Bend hunts. Probably they've got their roster well,

554
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 2: obviously Corey's not killing it because they're not resigning Buzz

555
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 2: because they've obviously made a decision that as it stands

556
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 2: at the moment, Benhunt and Billy Hunter, and they've got

557
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 2: young Blake Mosa and the system is.

558
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 7: Five year old halfbacks, but the future of the club

559
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 7: are not two thirty five old half backs. When they

560
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 7: won the Queensland State of Origin with a young nine

561
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 7: year old half back, they could sit there and get

562
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 7: some experience.

563
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 2: He'll learn all those guys, I mean, he'll learn off

564
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 2: those guys and at some point he'll probably ge an opportunity.

565
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 7: But it's better plan. It's it's better getting a taste.

566
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 7: And you look at the roosters now with their young halves,

567
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,360
Speaker 7: there's no better way to learn as at the cold face.

568
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 4: The insing thing. And I heard Adam Reynolds on a

569
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 4: podcast and I actually wrote him McCollum that he would

570
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 4: not sign a new deal until the other boys are

571
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 4: done because he didn't want to force anyone out.

572
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 3: Well, he actually has he signed.

573
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 2: Well, they had to make a decision because.

574
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: I'm not blaming position his manager coming up on Heavy Hit,

575
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: maybe you can ask him. We can ask him in

576
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: the agreement when he walks out. And what about Panthers.

577
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: That a big win, and then mentioned earlier they got

578
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: the Bulldogs this week on Thursday on Fox leagu which

579
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: would be a big one. But Nathan Cleary had that

580
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 1: injury in Origin, didn't kick goals, struggled in the first half,

581
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 1: got better as the game went on. Will he play

582
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: this week? And how serious is his injury?

583
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 2: Well, the train tomorrow, breath. I think they're pretty optimistic,

584
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 2: your train, you'll play this week. He's obviously not one

585
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 2: hundred percent, but we're sorry. How tough he was in Origin.

586
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 2: It's probably one of his underrated qualities, Nathan and Cleary,

587
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 2: just how tough he is. He's a tough boy. So yeah,

588
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:31,439
Speaker 2: I think they're pretty confident.

589
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 7: But if there's any doubt. You don't force him to you,

590
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 7: especially the way they played last week. Think if all

591
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,199
Speaker 7: the others come back, could he.

592
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 1: Not playing this week or not playing until the decider?

593
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 3: He wants to play. He's desperate to play for Penrith.

594
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 4: There's some light at the end of the time, l

595
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 4: after a tough open the end of the season, and

596
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 4: this is Canterbury. This is potentially the game of the year.

597
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 4: He's up against Burton cright and kick out his old mates.

598
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 4: He's up against Cameron surround o and this is a monster,

599
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 4: monster game. I know Thursday night is typically a bad

600
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 4: night for crowds. I would not be surprised the way

601
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,360
Speaker 4: Canterbury fans are and it's penritheme game. They'll fill that

602
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 4: stadium out there, clearial play and massive, massive game of footy.

603
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: I agree. Can't wait on Fox League as I said now,

604
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:26,159
Speaker 1: actually Klimb remains NRL's top ranked referee. Really, how does

605
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 1: that work? I'm here and he's going to get going through.

606
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: Is that right?

607
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 2: It looks that way, Brath. I think you all went

608
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 2: through this game and they reckon. They missed three penalties,

609
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 2: two queens there, two es was one for Queens and

610
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 2: so after I Queens Anders, we didn't think he had

611
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 2: a great game. After Origin two, you blocks didn't think

612
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 2: you had a good game. We're all square, go to

613
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 2: Game three.

614
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 3: Fair breath. What the NRL do? I'll give them credit

615
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 3: for this.

616
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,639
Speaker 4: Brock Chaffer came from South and now running referees with

617
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 4: great Mannersley So they have a rating system and keep

618
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 4: KPIs and every referee in every single category and then

619
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 4: they add the points up after are we talking game management?

620
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 4: We're talking how many decisions they got right, how many

621
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 4: tries were overturned by the bunk or all those sorts

622
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,919
Speaker 4: of I don't know if it's.

623

Speaker 1: A pied charge.

624
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 4: I suggest it was a spreadsheet. But what I'm doing, well,

625
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 4: you think it's funny. I'm actually trying to give them

626
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 4: a rap because it's a really good It's a really

627
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:25,359

Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you.

629
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,199
Speaker 4: It's a really good way of keeping form on all

630
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 4: these with if you do check in all these categories,

631
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 4: what I can tell you is Ashley Client this year

632
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 4: is a mile ahead of the second best referee on

633
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 4: their ratings in just about everything. Yeah, and look Adham

634
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 4: g wasn't rated very high. All that's why I missed

635
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 4: out the finals.

636
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 7: Some Origin players. It might just be some big game referees.

637
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 4: What I'm saying is and I spoke to Bullderup before

638
00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 4: he published that story this morning.

639
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 3: The nr rel have told.

640
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 4: Me that he will have to have a shocker this

641
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 4: weekend climb and particularly bad stuff up if he's to

642
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 4: lose that job.

643
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 7: Can I give you South Wales a tip? I think

644
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 7: in the last say thirteen Origins, you've won ten of

645
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 7: the penalty counts, so you.

646
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 3: Want him Gordy.

647
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 7: I'm just letting you know we've won three. Billies won

648
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 7: three and game two was one that was Verry god Muscle.

649
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 7: The other night Melbourne last year.

650
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 4: Sorry I don't know count got well it was no

651
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 4: one nil after forty five minutes.

652
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 7: Buzz buzz bzz. Since Billy's taken over, right, I think

653
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 7: you guys are about twenty five penalties ahead.

654
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 2: I'd love to see Queensland considered fifty two penalties, Blues

655
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 2: forty six and it's eighty infringements to sixty one, so

656
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 2: you're twenty infringements better off. There you go, last three

657
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 2: series wins three years, so you don't.

658
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 3: Have to you know, well, you haven't done any research.

659
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,800

660
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 4: But typically twisted the topics four topics the first forty

661
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 4: five minutes. If that came the other day when your

00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 4: mob were perfect, which was absolute crap.

663
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 3: They were not.

664
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 2: Perfectly once we won the penalty, can.

665
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 7: To you twist last year was fourteen eight to you

666
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:33,480
