He was a bit worried about 16 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 5: this show. 17 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 4: I saw you both at the Lagash last night and 18 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 4: I'm thinking, oh god, late night. 19 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 3: Both very good. 20 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: We always you can turn buzz. We didn't seeing you too, 21 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: sw yeah really yeah, you stands in glass. 22 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 3: Very very this year. 23 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: All right, let's take a look at the nominal player 24 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: performance of the round and brought to you by the 25 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: Tab and here they are. Jacob Keraz is on fire, 26 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: as is the Bulldog two hundred and forty eight run 27 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:20,119 Speaker 1: meters Jake Clifford back in form with four linebreak assists, 28 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:25,839 Speaker 1: and Daniel Atkinson with that controversial game winning field goal yesterday. 29 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: Three solid performances from these three, Gordy, who do you 30 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: like out of these? 31 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 3: I think Jake Clifford. I think the Cowboys open him 32 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 3: up forty four points. I thought that, you know, I'm 33 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 3: against the Despert side. I thought he was outstanding. 34 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 5: Actually, I agree on Clifford. Great story. 35 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 4: I love these stories of kids have been in second 36 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,559 Speaker 4: grade all year and had a bad exit the night, 37 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 4: and you'd come home that the Cowboys made a bold 38 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 4: move getting ready to Chad. 39 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 40 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 5: I liked this game. They were very, very sharp. 41 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: I was going to say Jake as well, but I'll 42 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: go with Jacob Krraz because just to be different, breath, 43 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: he's been outstanding all year actually for the Bulldogs. Jacob 44 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: Carraz and two forty eight meters that's a big effort. 45 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: Big effort. The dogs are flying, buzz, aren't they? 46 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 5: Dogs are flying dogs? 47 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: Fan Now, apparently we'll get there a bit later, but 48 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: so just Holdrana's thrilling golden point winner has been overshadowed 49 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: by two contentious calls in relation to blockers during field 50 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: goal attempts. Now, this was an interesting one, a couple 51 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: of I think dubious decisions. I'm interested to get your 52 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: take on this. This first one, this was given a 53 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: penalty and no film goal, which would have been I 54 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: think the match winner for Kaylen Ponger. Now I'll start 55 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: us off. You can see there those two forwards, they're 56 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: deemed as blockers and getting in the way of Kennedy. Now, 57 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: I don't know what the blockers or where they're supposed 58 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: to go. Those two they're in position for their nine 59 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: if they need to get the ball. They haven't really 60 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: deviated their run. They haven't taken out. I don't think 61 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: any of the defenders in that moment. And I thought 62 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: this was a shocker. But I'd love to hear the 63 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: opinion of you. 64 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 3: Guys who did they block? 65 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 2: Well, the argument block will Kennedy, right. 66 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 3: But everybody had a chance to get to the kicking. 67 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: I don't agree with it, but I'm saying that's the argument. 68 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 2: Goody right, So you know I'm with you, brother. I 69 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 2: think those guys to take the pass. If it was 70 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 2: a Brallia dummy half one to hit them with a pass, 71 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 2: he could have hit them so they're they're sort of 72 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 2: live players. 73 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 4: I spoke the great Mansley today, head of football, and 74 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 4: he was very, very strong that the referee got this right, 75 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 4: and he really emphasized the fact that all seventeen clubs 76 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 4: got a very strong email at the start of the 77 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 4: year about blockers the year or start of the week 78 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 4: started the season exactly. 79 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 5: So yeah, but the clubs are where. 80 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 4: I then argued with him that I don't think those 81 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 4: blockers or decoys or whatever you want to call had 82 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 4: any obstruction whatsoever. I'm will Ken, I would have been happy, 83 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 4: even as a Cronulla fan for that to be a fair. 84 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: I've had a lot of Cruller fans say the same thing. Now, 85 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: this happened only within two minutes and they massed on 86 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: downfield because of the penalty. Now he had to give 87 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: this penalty, and I believe the referees dug himself in 88 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: a bit of a hole. 89 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 3: Here. 90 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: You can see Calen plays for it, because I wouldn't 91 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: you play for it. And that's what we're going to 92 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: get down from players because of this now, because we 93 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: weren't strong on that first call and now Annesley's backed 94 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: it up. Here we are identical situation and the Newcastle 95 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: players play up to it and they have to disallow 96 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: it because they disallowed the one before. But that's the 97 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: only reason I believe they disallowed this one, which has 98 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: really got us in a bit of a messy. I 99 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: just think it's terrible. 100 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 5: I don't want to see you and it's an old saying. 101 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 4: I don't want to see a Grand final or a 102 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 4: major semi final whatever decided by a blocker when it's 103 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 4: so inconclusive. And for the life of me, Will Candy 104 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 4: was not obstructed. I don't care what anyone says. I've 105 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 4: been in the control. We've stop framed, but we've hdreed it, 106 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 4: we've four k'd it. I can't see a block. 107 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 2: And there's another issue. All The other issue is that 108 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: even Graham considered today that Will Kennedy may. 109 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: From even Graham now enterial head of football Graam Mansley 110 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: has defended both decisions. Let's take a look. 111 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 6: The referee or the video referee may rule obstruction if 112 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 6: any player from the attacking team, in relation to a 113 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 6: field goal, takes up a position near the player the 114 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 6: ball and, in the opinion of the referee, obstructed defenders, 115 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 6: regardless of whether there is physical contact. All the clubs 116 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 6: have got a copy of this. All the clubs are 117 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 6: brief John this at the start of the year. You know, obstruction, 118 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 6: blockers case closed, the next one for the for the Sharks, blocker, blocker, 119 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 6: kicker case closed. 120 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 3: Obstruction. 121 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: Okay, So what stands out to me there is Graham 122 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: saying that they they'll neither play the ball the blockers. 123 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: I don't think they were. The issue we've had in 124 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 1: the pass is the blockers right near to play the ball, 125 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: and they get in the marker's way, and they get 126 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: into the defender's way. But in this instance they're just 127 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: in a position of attack. They're not actually in a 128 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: position of block to take out anyone from your position. 129 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: So I dispute that. And there was an incident you 130 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: were about to talk about it, but Asley spoke about 131 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: in the press conversent and have it there about Will 132 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: Kennedy office. 133 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 2: And Graham basically consider there was a chance Will Kennedy 134 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: was off side, but they couldn't review that because the 135 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 2: video official doesn't have the power in this situation to 136 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: review off side. I think it's opening up a bigger 137 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 2: floor in the system. But what if we get to 138 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: a game and there's a guy clearly offside now and 139 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 2: we've got to review it, and the video ref can't 140 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 2: give a penalty for it. So it's opened up, I think, 141 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: or shown us a flaw in the system that needs 142 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 2: to be looked at. 143 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: So, just to be clear with everyone at home, if 144 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: Will Kennedy was three meters off side, there could they 145 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 1: couldn't rule. 146 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 2: Video referee could ruled, couldn't have couldn't have brought it back, 147 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 2: couldn't have given a penalty. As I said, Graham said today, 148 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: there was a chance Kennedy was off side in this 149 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 2: play and the video ref couldn't look at that, couldn't 150 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 2: make a decision on that, and ultimately it's costing Newcap 151 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,559 Speaker 2: this game and the season this season. 152 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 3: But if I'm catching Coronulla there, my two markers didn't move. 153 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 3: They got the they got the shortest line to the kicker. 154 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 3: Both of those markers had a clear runder him. They 155 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 3: didn't move. So Kranella wouldn't have winged about that player 156 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 3: at all. 157 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: They were block didn't even wine after this, They thought 158 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: they lost that. There was no rule uproar from the players, 159 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: there was no he was in my way. I couldn't 160 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: get to him. The referee just went out and a 161 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: limit made a call, which is okay if you make 162 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: the right one. I just I can't believe that they're 163 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: saying they got it right it buzz. You had an 164 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: issue with the Phoenix crossland Sinbin just before half time? 165 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I did, and I hope we're going to show 166 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 4: it here. Here it comes. Now see what he's doing there? 167 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 4: I see it all through a game, every game. He's 168 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 4: not on that long, right, Why was he sin bit? 169 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 4: Wasn't he just penalized Gordon? 170 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 3: Well, I reckon, it's a professional foul. 171 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 5: Why is it? But why is it not a professional foul? 172 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 3: Because the men well because inside the ten that's what 173 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 3: they deem that he's. 174 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 5: The ball, so normally just goes six. 175 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 4: Again, Yeah, I get that that was a really big 176 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 4: but again I had a fight with Graham. 177 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: I think what goes against Phoenix here is that it's 178 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: actually a flop. He jumps on one to play the 179 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: plays dead. 180 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 3: He wasn't watching this. 181 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: He's tackled, tackled, flops on him, so that's already a penalty. 182 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: Referees is letting them go so that there's an adventage 183 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: to connel up. Then he then he stays on him 184 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: until the siring goes there a professional fail there. 185 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 3: Would you agree he wanted to six again, but he 186 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 3: played for that. 187 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: I've got less. I don't have less for a problem 188 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: with this. YEA, for me, this is I can understand 189 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 2: why he was saying. 190 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 4: But the problem we have is, and I said it 191 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 4: earlier in the season, we need a summit, Wayne Bennett. 192 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 5: Wayne Bennett says. 193 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: We needed to love this summit. 194 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 2: We we needed the end kill rockill something. 195 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 4: Because the game now appears to be too fast, too 196 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 4: complicated for referees and the bunker to consistently make decisions. 197 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 5: I'll go back to those blockers. 198 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 4: If we forensically examined every field goal this year, we'd 199 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 4: find a problem in most of them. 200 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 3: Would be their coach to break the rules. Until you 201 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 3: get all the coaches there here. 202 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 4: We got one game where the NRL so they refered 203 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 4: it correctly, and they're entitled to say that. 204 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 5: We're entitled to disagree. 205 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: Okay, who's going to this summer? 206 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 5: Honestly, Well, way't Bennett's first in the door. 207 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,199 Speaker 4: I'd hope Trent Robinson, I'd hope Craig Bellamy, and I 208 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 4: hope the r l p A would nominate their foremost 209 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 4: soon your players, the Dally, Jerry Evans, the clear ees. 210 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 3: So then so you think Ricky and Ivan and Kevy 211 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 3: and those guys are just going to oh yeah, that's cool. 212 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 3: You come up to the rules. We're just going to 213 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: play to your rules. 214 00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 5: No, no, not as every coach goes. 215 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 4: You asked me off, we don't need a summer buzz 216 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 4: soy for this what are you under the g We. 217 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: Just need some clarity around it. But we don't need a. 218 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 5: Summer We're not just getting clarity. 219 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: It will just result in mass changes to the rules again, 220 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: which is the last thing we need. 221 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 4: You know why we're opening the show on this topic 222 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 4: because there is no clarity, there is no consistency reading. 223 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 4: I think we need to get the sharpest minds in 224 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 4: the game into a room and try and the start 225 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 4: with a bunker. By putting four people in their two 226 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 4: games and each consistent decisions rather than a dozen people. 227 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 2: You're not going to get consistent decisions. It will help 228 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:38,599 Speaker 2: with four different people. 229 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 5: And it helps. It's a better chance and having twelve. 230 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: All right, talking of the summer, do you think you're 231 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: at this summit, they will discuss golden point. Your point 232 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: with this, buzz Raider has got flogged, Knights are lucky 233 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: to lose and Raiders gets zero points. Knights get zero points. 234 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 5: Light Bulb again the Bulldogs. 235 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: I did bulldog style off Buzzer stole back of Bullock. 236 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 5: Yeah. So my view is this. 237 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 4: I think we should change Premiership points to four points 238 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 4: a game right, And I'm obviously going to be torn 239 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 4: apart because Gord is over there snickering. I feel that 240 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 4: the Cowboys won by thirty eight points against Canberra. Cornulla 241 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 4: couldn't win in eighty minutes of football, but they still 242 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 4: get the same amount of points for five hit ups 243 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 4: in the field goal. So what I'm suggesting golden point. 244 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 4: I think golden points great for rugby league. It's great 245 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 4: for the broadcast, it's great for excitement. But if you 246 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 4: walk away with nothing after being level of eighty, it's 247 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 4: not fair. 248 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 5: Now. 249 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,839 Speaker 4: I spoke to Peter landis this evening, and I spoke 250 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 4: to Andrew Abdall. I'm not tipping there is going to 251 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 4: be a change, but they both said it has merit. 252 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: It does have merit and they will give some credity. 253 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: Buzzer does have meritor and I think you can that's 254 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: all right, you can come in, he can come in. 255 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: So I think the merit to it is what happened 256 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: is the example of the weekend. You know it does. 257 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: But you know, is it worth changing the whole system 258 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: for just a couple of Golden points that could event 259 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:18,839 Speaker 1: one way or the other? Do you what do you think? 260 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 2: I think it's got no merit at all. Okay, I 261 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: think I think Golden Point was brought in to decide 262 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: a winner and a loser. And under this system, no 263 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 2: one loses. Who loses. They get a point. There's no loser, 264 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 2: so there is a loser, No, there's not. 265 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 3: They get one point for point, get a point after 266 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 3: eighty minutes giving. 267 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 2: Every kid at the the carnival goes up about it. 268 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 2: But you know that's what Golden porm was brought. It 269 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: brought in to decide whenever the loser, right if scores 270 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 2: the level at the end of Golden Point, they get 271 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: a point each. 272 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 4: Behind golden I can't understand what you're saying. I'm not 273 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 4: going to shoot it down. I'm not going to try to. 274 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 4: But at the end of the year, when the premiership 275 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 4: table and you're fighting for a position in the top eight. 276 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 4: That's where it gets really difficult because the team that 277 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 4: might have had the cutsiest draw and the team that 278 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 4: had the easy You know. 279 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 2: What I mean, what if you lose twenty nine twenty 280 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 2: eight is I think we were talking about before the show. 281 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 2: Never some effort in regulation time and lose twenty nine anymore? 282 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 5: I cannot help you. 283 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: And I think I'm bouncing out the ready. 284 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 5: I just wonder, what do you think? 285 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 3: It's got merit? And I like it. I like Buzzer's idea. 286 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: You're happy now mate? 287 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 3: Oh well you know I've jumped on your bed. 288 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 4: Ready is first up from a long spell and he's 289 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 4: not good first ready? 290 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 5: Heah, he does. 291 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 2: I hope you're your dumb ideas. 292 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 3: I just. 293 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: What's the latest on Nathan Cleary. This was pretty big 294 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:04,559 Speaker 1: against Melbourne on Friday was a Thursday Thursday night. Is 295 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 1: he going to be back and fit and firing for 296 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: the finals? 297 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 2: Well, I'll be back. I'm not sure he'll be but 298 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 2: they expected to be back for the finals. 299 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 3: Breath. 300 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: I mean he's I think he's carried this injury at 301 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 2: a lot of the year and has he Yeah, Well 302 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 2: we had reason it was strapped up right, and when 303 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 2: he played the other night, there's pretty concerning when you 304 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 2: saw him go down because it's pretty innocuous, but they 305 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: expected you back for the finals. I'm not sure he'll 306 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: be one hundred percent, but he'll be in reasonable Nick apparently. 307 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 4: So, and they've got Brad Schneider and Jack Carle as 308 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 4: fill ins with Jerome lew White while. 309 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 5: He is out. 310 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 4: And look, I keep thinking back to Cooper Kronk in 311 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 4: that Grand Final when they had a guy with a 312 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 4: ultrasound machine in the sheds to work out where to 313 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 4: put the needle. And I think if worse comes to 314 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 4: worse and he's got to miss a final, I'm sure. 315 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 5: Penrith will find a way to do with Cooper Kronk Jerome. 316 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 2: Last year's run with the shoulder one. 317 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,119 Speaker 3: Was a broken bar man and this is maybe structural. 318 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 3: He's just going to get He's just going to get 319 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 3: a lot of traffic at him, you know. I mean, 320 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 3: like there's no doubt if you're playing Nathan Cleary now 321 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 3: and Cooper conc had a doll for eighty minutes of footy, 322 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 3: he's going to have to do it for the four 323 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 3: weeks of the final, like if they lose the first one. 324 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: Well, he's had the injury week since the preseason. He's 325 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: managed just good this year so far. They're aware of it. 326 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: He didn't he went off, but it wasn't like he 327 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: was in excruciating pain needed surgery straight away. They'll rested 328 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: up the next three weeks. They can protect him a 329 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: little bit throughout the finals. I mean, Nathan doesn't need 330 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: to be at one hundred percent for them to win 331 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: the camp. I don't think you know anything. 332 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 2: Jerome's shown that ye great, that he can take charge 333 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 2: and lead this side around when Nathan has been out 334 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 2: this year and he's gone forward leaps and bounds this year. 335 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: Jerome in terms of towns control of that football team, 336 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 2: so he can maybe take a bit more responsibility on. 337 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: And just experience for Penrith under pressure in big moments. 338 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: You know the last three premierships know how to get 339 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: it done. So I wouldn't be writting them off now, buzz. 340 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: Can the Dogs win the comp from outside the top four? 341 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: They still may finish top four. The Mighty Bulldogs have 342 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: been on absolute fire. I don't think anyone saw this coming, 343 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: even their own fans. But you write a story today, 344 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: Jimmy Dimmick. Yeah, Jimmy divided in the article. 345 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 4: Back in nineteen ninety five, Jimmy Dimmick won the Clive 346 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 4: Churchill Medal on Grand Final Day and that year Canterbury 347 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 4: came from six on the comp table to win their 348 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 4: last two. Twenty nine years ago, spoke to Jimmy. Jimmy 349 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 4: thinks the Bulldogs are Manly. They're both playing well enough 350 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 4: outside the top eight top four to stir it up 351 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 4: a little bit, you know, when the whips are cracking 352 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 4: and they try to win three straight games. From what 353 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 4: I've seen from both clubs, Cannobury and Manly, I'm not 354 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 4: prepared to say they're gone if they don't make the 355 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 4: top four. 356 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 5: They are serious. Serious. 357 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: One thing to think about, too is if you finish 358 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: outside the top four, you don't play Melbourne or Penrith 359 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: week one that. 360 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 4: That is a massive advantage. I know Melbourne are boatable 361 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 4: and I know Penrith are boatable, but I'd rather play 362 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 4: eighth and seventh first week of the finals. You won't 363 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 4: get knocked around as much and then come. 364 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 3: In and get a home final, wouldn't they? 365 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 5: No? 366 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 3: I think that, Yeah, yeah, fifth, you mean so they 367 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 3: you do it. Of course they get a home final. 368 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 3: You just think that wouldn't I don't think they can 369 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 3: win it. 370 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 2: I think that's I think. 371 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: I think you're putting a line through them. 372 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think they can win it. Okay, Dogs, 373 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 2: you have got mainly worrying me. I think they're considering 374 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 2: too many points. They think they need to tighten their 375 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 2: defense up man. 376 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: Okay, so you're saying the Bulldogs cannot win the premiership. 377 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: Shu, they can, but I didn't think they could win 378 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 2: to make the aprif. 379 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 4: The You know, they've already beaten a couple of these 380 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 4: sides up above them, and so has Manly, and no 381 00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 4: side is playing with more heart, more hunger that they 382 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 4: blasted a confidence. 383 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 2: I think Manly got a better chance of doing the 384 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 2: Dogs because they've got Tommy, and I think Tommy can 385 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 2: win games on his own, So I think they're a 386 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 2: better chance than I don't know the fact that No, no, no, 387 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 2: I'm not. 388 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 1: I just said the Bulldogs at the moment and going defense. 389 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 3: No, I'm just to tell you one count defense and 390 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 3: you want momental and if they can get the momentum, 391 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 3: you wouldn't want to play. 392 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 2: To win four games.

It won't only be that. 455 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 4: And I want to applaud Souse here because we've been 456 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 4: banging on, particularly on this show for quite some time. 457 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 4: They've been too lenient, too soft on Latrell, and I've 458 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 4: overlooked a number of big issues there. This time, they're 459 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 4: going to walk into that meeting with the board with 460 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 4: Blake Sally. They're going to lay it on the table. 461 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 4: They're going to say, you're going to have discipline behavior 462 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 4: clauses put into your contract that this if this has 463 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 4: ever had happened again, we'll tear. 464 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 5: The contract up. This is long overdue and as minutes 465 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 5: over Jew, I don't know if they'd met it over due, 466 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 5: but they're finally. 467 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: Like you said, we've spoken about on the show a lot, Yeah, 468 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: a long time ago. 469 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 4: What you've got to remember is for all the rubbish 470 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 4: he's been in and I'd call it rubbish for that 471 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 4: triple M interview was out of order and this photograph 472 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 4: last week was bad for the game, front page for days. 473 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 4: This time last year, on dally M Night, he was 474 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 4: named the Ken Stephen Medal for community charity work. Right, 475 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 4: so he obviously does a lot of great things. However, 476 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 4: what's happened this year, repeat offense after repeat defense where 477 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 4: he's not on the field, not just for injuries, but 478 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 4: the suspension for whacking Shawn Johnson is unacceptable for a 479 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 4: one point two million dollar football And does Tom Turbo 480 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 4: do this? 481 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 5: Does Reese Walsh do this? Does Jerome Hughes do this? No, 482 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 5: they don't. 483 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: That's a responsible This is his record at the Roosters 484 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: and then since he's arrived at Red from there with 485 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: the Bunnies, and you can see a significant difference in 486 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: number of games played each year from Latrell. How do 487 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: you guys see this well? 488 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 2: And those numbers are disappointing. 489 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 3: Break. 490 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 2: I mean, he's a superstar and they need him on 491 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 2: the park, and when he's on the park for them 492 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 2: and playing well, they win footy games. And he hasn't 493 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 2: been on the park enough for them since they've signed him. 494 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 2: I think that's pretty clear from those numbers. 495 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 3: Barz and you said that they're going to pretty much 496 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,719 Speaker 3: lay down the law. Is there a chance that Latrell 497 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 3: doesn't accept that? 498 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 4: Absolutely, there's a chance. Latrell has indicated to his closest 499 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 4: confidance that is it worth it? 500 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 5: You know that is it? 501 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: Would? 502 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 5: I be happier on the farm in Tarre. 503 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 4: He loves it there and no one could be grudge him, 504 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 4: you know, that sort of lifestyle. I seriously hope finally 505 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 4: this will be the wake up corps and he will 506 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 4: accept what Souse wants to do because Souse will been very, 507 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 4: very fair to him. 508 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 2: I think Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, that's huge for Latrell because 509 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 2: Wayne's always generally got the best out of the trill 510 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 2: and got a great relationship with him. And I think 511 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 2: if Wayne wasn't coming next year. 512 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 1: They'd be in trouble. 513 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 2: I reckon they would have given serious thoughts to potentially 514 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 2: ripping up his. 515 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: Coind Well, it's a godsend that Wayne's coming in a 516 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 1: lot of ways, you know, even the way they're kind 517 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: of playing at the moment. They've got a heap of 518 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: injuries and they've been riddled with it and it has 519 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: cost them probably an opportunity of fighting for finals. But 520 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: what has Wayne got to do? When Wayne gets in 521 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: and takes this job, he's got to deal with the 522 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 1: Latrell issue. He's got a number of players there that 523 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: are underperforming at the moment, and they want to quick 524 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: turn around that. 525 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 3: They don't want Wayne to come. 526 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: In and take two or three years to get them 527 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: back where they need to be. So what does he do? 528 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: How does he fix this so quick? And is he 529 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:35,360 Speaker 1: can he fix it? 530 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 2: Bra I reckon, You look at that roster. It's not 531 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 2: that bad. There's a lot of talent on that roster totally, 532 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 2: So he just needs to get them pulling in the 533 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: one direction. I mean, it's just sort out a couple 534 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 2: in minutes to play with the roster a little bit, 535 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 2: but doesn't need a major overhaul. They're not far off 536 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:52,360 Speaker 2: being a contender again. So I don't think it's it's 537 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 2: not a huge it's not a huge job. 538 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:54,719 Speaker 1: You don't think it's a huge job. 539 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 2: I don't think it's a huge to get the button 540 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 2: what we first thought or not well, I mean the 541 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 2: the trolly, he's had another layer to it. 542 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 4: Right, Really they don't have a middle, right Tom burd 543 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 4: just is going and Tom's been a little bit. 544 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 2: I told it was a good player a year ago. 545 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 4: He's not Fisher, Harris ad and Fernowa Blake or any 546 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 4: of those big boys at many or so. 547 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 5: And to me there's this. 548 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 4: Gigantic question mark around Lewis Didde from Saint Helens, who 549 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 4: has been in second grade a little bit. 550 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 5: You know this season I agree to. 551 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 4: Come out to this, yeah, but for him to come 552 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 4: out here on seven hundred and seven hundred and fifty 553 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 4: k Wayne is a great coach, the best we've seen. 554 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 4: But can he lift well the trail and Lewis. 555 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 3: Didge will wait and see, you'll have to I think 556 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 3: I think the trail's fitness and want you know, and 557 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 3: then like, and you made a point. Does he want 558 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 3: to pay the price to be a rugby league player? 559 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 3: There's prices you've got to pay.
