1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,120
Speaker 1: Veal General three sixty Rugby League from every angle, dreading

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 1: again the great Gordon tellers, Danane and Michael Carriyanas and

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: the Final Round showdown. Just one game remains with several

4
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: teams vying to secure their position in the top eight.

5
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: With a season it has been. What a final round?

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: We have every game live right here on Fox League

7
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: and the stage is set.

8
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: Gordon, Absolutely, I think it's been the most entertaining season

9
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 2: that I've seen. You know, if the Titans are the

10
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 2: worst team in the comp We've caught a lot of

11
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 2: those games and the bottom side, the way they've played

12
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 2: a products fantastic. But it starts on Thursday night and

13
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:38,599
Speaker 2: what's to do with.

14
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 3: Gold case they are the worst team of the cop.

15
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:46,560
Speaker 4: But then you want to come on is the stand

16
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 4: of the footag doesn't start on.

17
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: The bad football you.

18
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 4: Just because you wore a Bulldogs suited.

19
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: Lightly sitter friction. It's good, it's good, No, it's good.

20
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 2: But you know what, I think it has been the

21
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: most exciting season and have the ten sides that are

22
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: still vying for the eight spots, and.

23
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 5: I'm excited because like, who knows who's going to win

24
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 5: this competition? I think that's what excites me the most.

25
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 5: We've had Penrith the clear standoutside of the past couple

26
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 5: of seasons, but this Premiership race is wide open. I

27
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 5: think that's what excites me the most. Edited into the

28
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 5: next four or five weeks.

29
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: Let's start again there.

30
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 4: I love to start.

31
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 1: I'd say it.

32
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 4: Few won't hold me back.

33
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 3: What's great about the latter is you've got some unpredictability.

34
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 3: We don't know what canber are going to be like

35
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 3: in the finals. I think they're going to be fantastic.

36
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 3: With the two home games. Cronulla could finish in the

37
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 3: top four. They've got a lot to prove. We're going

38
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 3: to see Penrith have to do it another way. The

39
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 3: Roosters could get hot if you get the Broncos if

40
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 3: they lose tomorrow night. Very big possibility because Melbourne have

41
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 3: it over them and they've got a pretty strong team.

42
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 3: I can't remember a top eight ever where we've had

43
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 3: three powerhouse to teams in that bottom four. Sometimes you

44
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 3: get one where any one of those three could get

45
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 3: hot and you wouldn't be shocked at all. And you're

46
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 3: going to get possibly a Broncos v Roosters in week one,

47
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 3: maybe a Broncos v. Penrith or at Penrith v.

48
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 4: Broncos.

49
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 3: Either way, we're going to have a knockout blockbuster in

50
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 3: round one with the qualifier, so.

51
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: Much anticipation and so many scenarios that can play out

52
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: over this weekend. After a drama filled twenty four hours,

53
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: Michael maguire was surprisingly calm when he fronted the media

54
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: earlier today.

55
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 6: It's obviously disappointing. I'm not going to go away from that,

56
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 6: that's yeah. But I've been on the journey with all

57
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 6: these players and now he's made a mistake. There's the

58
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 6: reasons why he's going through what he's going through. These

59
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 6: things are going on in clubs. We're just living by

60
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 6: the stands and the expectations of each other.

61
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: And that's just part of the journey. Obviously, the challenge

62
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: ahead is actually great one for us now. It sharpens

63
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: you up games like this.

64
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 6: How the boys from day one, when I first walked in,

65
00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 6: talked about who we want to be and our culture

66
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 6: and the expectations, and that's basically what we're living by.

67
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 6: Appurcy WANs He's out there drun but absolutely flogged.

68
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 1: Shibasaki was absolutely flogged. But are we surprised. I mean,

69
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: he turned up the training. I'm assuming under the influence

70
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: or he broke a rule there that was pretty important

71
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: to their team and their team's culture. He has been

72
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: stood down, Gordy, and today they thrashed him.

73
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's expected, the train a little bit harder. I

74
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 2: still don't know whether it's the right corp because sometimes

75
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 2: the more I think about it, you know, he's going

76
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 2: to let the team down even more. Sometimes it can

77
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 2: hurt the team maybe a fine maybe, you know, get

78
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: hung out all week, you know, do all the odd

79
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 2: jobs around, pick up the boots, clean the dress room.

80
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: There's there's other punishments that you can do where you

81
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 2: learn your lesson. But they've chosen for him not to

82
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: play in one of their biggest classes to try to finish.

83
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: In the top four. I don't know why. But when

84
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: I when I heard that he Michael McGuire said he

85
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: got flogged today. The first head that just popped up

86
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: it was Buzzer Field, Buzzer's chattel. I just thought a

87
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: buzz straight away is you have been watching that game?

88
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 3: I told you so, I told you so. Oh yeah,

89
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 3: I was going to come here and ask you too.

90
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 3: If this was a final, do you think he'd go

91
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 3: this hard? But then this is a final, to be honest,

92
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: this is the top four playoff, so they might be

93
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 3: playing for.

94
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: This season tomorrow night. It's a mess.

95
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 2: You don't know what's going on before and whether he's

96
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 2: got warning to look, that's the information that we don't have.

97
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 2: But yeah, it is a big game, and you know

98
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 2: that's what they've chosen it.

99
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 3: It is concerning though that a player he's had a

100
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 3: spectaclar year, if this incident was going to happen, it's

101
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 3: at a pretty crucial time. I don't know football culture

102
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 3: like you do, but you know players need to blow

103
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 3: off some steam. But it's a strange time.

104
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: He could have blow off some steam in Townsville the

105
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: night before, you know, Like I'm guessing after that win

106
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: up there, they probably had a few b up there

107
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: because it's renowned for it. So again, like going back

108
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: to what Gordy said that there probably are some other

109
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: reasons for it. But in terms of is it the

110
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: right decision now, I think it is. I think it's

111
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 1: a great stance, great leadership. Why not just Madge, but

112
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: the leadership group have how to say here? Which I love.

113
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: And you're going to set the standards in the culture

114
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: and they'll benefit from this in the finals and beyond.

115
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: But my question is now, will it hurt the team though?

116
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 5: Well, of course, well he's turned into an Origin player

117
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 5: this year, so no doubt it hurts the team. And

118
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 5: you've got Dean Mariner defending that center. He's played a

119
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 5: lot on the wing this year, so and you're up

120
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 5: against the star star of Melbourne side, so there's no

121
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 5: doubt it hurts them. But back to your point, I

122
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 5: agree with standing him down. If you know, for the

123
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 5: last couple of seasons everyone's been critical of the culture

124
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 5: up in Brisbane. So if Michael Maguire all the senior

125
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 5: players turned the blind eye to this, what have they

126
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 5: learnt this year? So I think he had to make

127
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 5: that decision.

128
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: You think they're risking a top four while leaving him,

129
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 1: Well they are.

130
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 3: I mean, there's that question, but I'm not saying it's

131
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 3: the wrong decision that because you do it to have

132
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 3: to set a standard. It's easy to do it in

133
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 3: round ten when the game doesn't mean anything, but when

134
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 3: the game means everything to do it as well. You know,

135
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 3: different coaches have different mentalities. The great Jimmy Johnson from

136
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys. Once he was asked about Troy Aikman,

137
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 3: his quarterback, if he slipped in after he cut a

138
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 3: nobody on the spot for falling asleep in the meeting,

139
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 3: he said, if Troy Aikman fell asleep in the meeting,

140
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 3: I'd walk over and I'd put a pillow under his.

141
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: Different coaches have different all right, Reese Welsh new profile pick.

142
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: Let's have a look at it and tell me if

143
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: it suits him or not. But here it is. I

144
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: love Reese the plumber.

145
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 5: I don't know how long rece would last on the

146
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 5: actual tools, but maybe someone shoul get him in there

147
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 5: for some work experience.

148
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what, he'd get a lot of work.

149
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 3: Plumber ring me today said you can't trust a newly

150
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 3: installed toilet as much as you think you can.

151
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: I'll just leave that there. I've heard the same thing Dan.

152
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: A few plumbers have said to me that those new

153
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: toilets are often news by the people that put them in. Well,

154
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: I didn't want to go.

155
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 5: Brian Fletcher's said it publicly right.

156
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 2: He's a plumb is a really bad plumber too.

157
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 4: He just did Washes.

158
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: Broncos have suggested that he may need his own PR handler, Reese,

159
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: because because I mean, he's so popular, he's got a

160
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: huge following on YouTube, Instagram, your name and he's got

161
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: it and he's a rock star really of our game. And

162
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: are they saying that he just needs someone by his

163
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: side twenty four to seven so he doesn't do things

164
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: like this again or.

165
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,239
Speaker 2: Maybe look after his social media size so he's locked

166
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 2: out of it. So the post that he does do

167
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 2: maybe is that what we're looking at? Max Markson was

168
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 2: that in the looking at Yeah, someone like und He

169
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 2: said he's been in the business for fifty years, so

170
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 2: he and Buzz the same time.

171
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 5: I think there is someone that works closely with him

172
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 5: on his image, I guess, But in terms of the

173
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 5: out and out I don't know who it is of

174
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 5: an out and out handler. I'm with Gord. He probably does.

175
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 5: He does. He has got to the stage of someone

176
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 5: to come out and go all right, if this is

177
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 5: what you're going to there's got to be someone safeguarding

178
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 5: what better friends.

179
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 2: Around him because we've watched him, We've caught him on

180
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: a lot again and when he did Newcastle, he walked

181
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: around that whole stadium. Every time I've ever watched him

182
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 2: play with what he like, he does a big walk,

183
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 2: so he does do a lot for his image, but

184
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 2: then maybe just put the phone down when he's having

185
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 2: his private time.

186
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, people hiring social media managers to sort of run

187
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 3: their accounts, that's pretty normal. Certainly he's in the States

188
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 3: with the high profile players, because I'm guessing what happened

189
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 3: was he feels a pressure to put content out there, right,

190
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 3: and thought he'd just be funny.

191
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 5: And you know, this wasn't a social media post him

192
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:00,080
Speaker 5: by the way.

193
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 4: When your sunraized photos every more, yeah, I do.

194
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:08,959
Speaker 1: Actually, I won't tell you who different persons, you know what.

195
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: He hasn't been impacted by this, but because he's straight

196
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: away put his profile pickups as a plumber, so he

197
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,959
Speaker 1: obviously doesn't really care that much. Do you like? But like,

198
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: was it funny?

199
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 4: Like?

200
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: Did it?

201
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 7: Like?

202
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 1: Like?

203
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 5: It wasn't funny, But it didn't hurt anyone.

204
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: It didn't need it wasn't It didn't need a statement.

205
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 3: Look fair flight of the broncos of putting a statement

206
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 3: out there.

207
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: It didn't need a statement.

208
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 5: That's funnier than the post, other than the hilarious.

209
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: Great belly is well aware of what went wrong last

210
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: week and that's bad news for the broncost.

211
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was some poor defense, really lack of I

212
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 8: don't like something, but lack of efforts. So a few

213
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 8: things thin pointed and actually a little bit of job

214
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 8: tomorrow night. Our second half was poor to be quite on,

215
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,599
Speaker 8: so we're looking.

216
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 4: To improve that. I approve a little bit there.

217
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: Melbourne Storm haven't lost back to back games since twenty

218
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: twenty three. Dan, you've done a little bit of digging today.

219
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 1: Can you talk it through this?

220
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:12,239
Speaker 4: Well?

221
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 3: So the last time, you know who was the last team?

222
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 3: I think the proud the Mighty Titans Gordon who for

223
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 3: a period have had the wood over Melbourne. But eighteen

224
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 3: times in a row this is I would say the

225
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 3: equal of, if not better than their Round one record.

226
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 3: There's a kind of fluking not flukiness, but there's a

227
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 3: randomness to around one record, even though they're very proud

228
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 3: of it. But every time they lose eighteen times in

229
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 3: a row, they've come back.

230
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 1: This year.

231
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 3: They beat lost the Dragons beat Manly forty eight twenty four,

232
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 3: then they were flogged by the Dolphins. They came out

233
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 3: burnt South on the Enzach Day lost the Classic to

234
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 3: Canberra in Magic Ground, burnt up the West Tiger sixty

235
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 3: four nil lost to Cronulla beat Gold Coast.

236
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 1: That was pretty close. I can keep going that every

237
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 1: time we've had enough we understand. Yeah, and this is

238
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: a concern for the Broncos. And another concern is is

239
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: that not only was it Craig six hundredths last week,

240
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: they get Jerome Hughes back this week, who no one

241
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: really thought would come back this early. Everyone was assuming

242
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: he'd come back for the finals, arguably the best. Well,

243
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: he got the Dally M last year, so we know

244
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: how good he is. Makes it even harder for the Broncos.

245
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 5: What you can't measure is what you just said there

246
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 5: break the embarrassment of that performance in Craig six hundredths.

247
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,719
Speaker 5: You could listen to Craig there. It's still hurting him

248
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 5: and that's going to sit with him for a while.

249
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 5: And to be those players sitting in that dress room

250
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 5: knowing that you embarrassed Craig let him down. That's got

251
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 5: a stink.

252
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: Thank god that Brent Read is in the box this

253
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: weekend too. Okay, so Craig, we're very happy about that now.

254
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 1: Cadie walker Sign's extension for next season. Was this the

255
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: right move for the Bunnies? Yes, but it's risky.

256
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: One year, but he's now at an age where he

257
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 3: is breaking down and that's understandable soft tissue injuries. But

258
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 3: what else were they going to do? Way Bennett said

259
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 3: this a month ago, he said, well, it's a risk,

260
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 3: but it's a risk we have to take.

261
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: Hard to argue.

262
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, the way he's come back over the last three games,

263
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 5: all beat off the interchange bench. He's added a completely

264
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 5: different dimension to their attack, and up until this year

265
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 5: he's had a pretty good run with injuries, playing twenty

266
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 5: plus games in most years. So we'll give him a

267
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 5: leaf pass for this year. The fact that it's a

268
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 5: twelvemonth deal I think works. And just how seriously how

269
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 5: good he's come back the last three games for South

270
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 5: shows that he's still got that elite ball playing ability.

271
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 1: He's gone great and I believe it's the right call

272
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: from sous. You say it's a risk though, well, just.

273
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 3: In the fact that he can be now injury prone,

274
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 3: but I don't think they had any other choice.

275
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 1: Why, Well, then I'm just asking him. I'm not disagreeing.

276
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: I'm asking, well, he at his.

277
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 3: Best obviously is still one of the elite cliff line styles,

278
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 3: five eighths in the competition. But the risk I'm talking

279
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,319
Speaker 3: about is if he's now at that point where he's

280
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 3: no certainty to play games. And again, this might just

281
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 3: be a fluke year where he just picked up injuries

282
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 3: at the bad time, at bad times, Latrell only played

283
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 3: an handful of games. Again, he only played you know,

284
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 3: he's only played fourteen games a year since joining SOUS.

285
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 3: So that's the risk I'm talking about breath players. You

286
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 3: don't want too many of these players that you can't

287
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 3: necessarily depend on to get twenty one twenty two games.

288
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 3: But at the same time, of course, the class is obvious.

289
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: The class, the influence he has on that team, and

290
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: even since coming back, like you said, Mickey, it's been

291
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: a stand. Now SOUSE is set to table David Fafeeda

292
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: a two year deal. This has been in the works

293
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: now for a while. It's no surprise to any of us.

294
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: Do we think this is the right call and ken

295
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: Wae and get the best out of him, I hope.

296
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 4: So.

297
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 2: I think Dave Feeder is the closest to Dave Taylor.

298
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,719
Speaker 2: They're just the most natural footballers that you've seen superstars

299
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 2: as kids when it comes to playing adults, and you've

300
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,719
Speaker 2: got to work a bit harder on your game for

301
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 2: some reason.

302
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 4: Dave.

303
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 2: Dave's had glimpses and but I don't think he's put

304
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 2: ten or twelve really solid games together. So hopefully Wayne

305
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 2: can get the best out of him. But he has

306
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 2: had Dave talent, and he's had Shushta this year as

307
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 2: well to try to get that.

308
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 1: They do need a bit of X factor too, don't.

309
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 4: They got it.

310
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: He's got the power and he's got the X factor,

311
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: He's got everything anything.

312
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 2: And then I've said it before, I was saving it

313
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 2: if Dave wants to do it Dave, and it doesn't

314
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 2: come down to Wayne.

315
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 4: It comes down to Dave.

316
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 5: Well, we saw that, you know, the Roosters and the

317
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 5: Panthers go all in for Dave for feeder not that

318
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 5: long ago, right, But when you look at and you

319
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 5: sit down and you look at what South City you need,

320
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 5: you say X factor break I say they need some

321
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 5: force in the middle of the field, that punch in

322
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 5: the middle of the field. Dave won't bring that, right.

323
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 5: So when I'm looking at the player or the style

324
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 5: of player that they need. No doubt that he will

325
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 5: be a handy addition to him, but he doesn't.

326
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: You think he could possibly bring that if Wayne coaches

327
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: him at in the middle. Not sure? This is my Yeah,

328
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,040
Speaker 1: you know, I'm assuming he's probably playing on an edge, right.

329
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 4: Doesn't have the motive they're playing in the middle.

330
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, So I think what they're lacking, and they have

331
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 5: been lacking. Really, she's Sam Burgess left the club is

332
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 5: a genuine middle and well, their.

333
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 3: Best is the problem.

334
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: Their best proper is the second round. Kal Mtangi who I.

335
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 5: Think he's proven his middle, Well, he's.

336
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 3: Spectacular in that role, but he's a natural second round.

337
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: That's that's the dearth that they have. What about their rosters?

338
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: So do you think it's a little bit.

339
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 5: In balanced, Well, it's just he's touched on before. You

340
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 5: know who what they could have done if Cody Walker left?

341
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 4: Right?

342
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 5: Well, they signed Jack Whiten to replace Cody Walker eventually, right,

343
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 5: so he arrived on big money as a starting center,

344
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 5: but with the idea that he was going to shift

345
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 5: into the halves long term. And you look, obviously they've

346
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 5: been crueled by injuries. But I go back to what

347
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 5: I just said around the fact that who's that dominant

348
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 5: presence in the middle of the field. Kem Murray obviously

349
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 5: adds skill and finesse and that quick player of the

350
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 5: ball and that ball movement in the middle of the field,

351
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 5: but you've got key on who's probably their best middle

352
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 5: at the moment. But they need someone who's going to

353
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 5: drag that team forward, and I just don't think there's

354
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 5: anyone there at the moment.

355
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 3: I don't read they've allowed David Mowell lead to explore

356
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 3: his options. That's he's only twenty two and.

357
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: He just hasn't come on, has he the way they

358
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: were hoping.

359
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 5: He's still young. Of course, he's still young, and he's

360
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 5: about to get into that sweet zone of well, he's

361
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 5: probably two or three years away, Gordy from that sweet

362
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 5: zone of where a proper will be. But he's already

363
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 5: played fifty plus games at that age, so it's not

364
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 5: a position where they can let likes go. Tabeta Titolo's

365
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 5: has been injury play. He was going to be one

366
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 5: of the best props in the game, but hasn't been

367
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 5: able to replicate that form either.

368
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 3: What do you make of Mademozellos. It's like Wayne's not

369
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 3: sure with him. From what I see. He had an

370
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 3: elbow injury picked up in Magic Round, but then came

371
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 3: back two three months ago. Now he doesn't get much

372
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 3: game time, if any. Yeah, it's an interesting one.

373
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 1: It is an interesting one. You know, they've got Humphreezer

374
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: can move the nine. They bought him originally for a

375
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: nine or fourteen, right, and he's had to play in

376
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: the halves obviously Brandon Smith going there. What they do

377
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 1: even with Latrell, I mean, that's where I want to

378
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: get to. Now, Latrell, do they play in the centers?

379
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: Do they play them at fullback? You spoke about? You know,

380
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: these are his stats in terms of longevity in the

381
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: games he's played over these seasons. Four seasons at the Roosters,

382
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:24,360
Speaker 1: ninety six games, twenty four games a season, sixty five tries,

383
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: seven finals appearances. In his six seasons at the Bunnies,

384
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: he's played less games overall, and he's average is fourteen

385
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: games a year, only played the three finals appearances therefore

386
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,959
Speaker 1: the Bunnies. But when he has played, he's been unbelievable. Right,

387
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: we know that even this year when he did play,

388
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: he was great, but would it be better for them

389
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: to move him in terms of longevity into the centers,

390
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: especially when you've got Joe Gray there.

391
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 5: Well, for mine, it's not just longevity, it's the fact

392
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 5: of the emergence of Ji Gray. Ji Gray has to

393
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 5: be in that team week in week out. He is

394
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 5: a different fullback to Latrell. Running, you know, two fifty

395
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 5: three hundred meters, is popping up and support. He's doing

396
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 5: all these things I think for the best thirteen for

397
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 5: South Sydney. Dry Gray's in that now. So the question

398
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 5: is do you play Latrell at center? Do you play

399
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 5: them at five?

400
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: Eight?

401
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 5: Actually wouldn't mind him in the six?

402
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: And who plays seven?

403
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:15,679
Speaker 4: Cody?

404
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: Cody? And then you put Humphreys at n Ian Brandon

405
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: Smith off the bench something like that.

406
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 5: Well you've got Mamozell's there or you work out with

407
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 5: the bench about.

408
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 1: He's probably looking like he's not quite where they want

409
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: him to be.

410
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 3: Garlic's coming as well, so he as well.

411
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Jaden Sullivan has just resigned for two years as.

412
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: Well as well.

413
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 5: They's resigned him, resigned him yet, so he's supposed to

414
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 5: go back to the West Tigers, but he's resigned for

415
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 5: the next.

416
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 1: Center has gone half from the Dragon as well. The

417
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: books still there too.

418
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 3: Center has a connotation of non important or least important player,

419
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 3: but the way Latrell has played it this year, he's

420
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 3: had a tremendous influence. He's almost one. In fact, he

421
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 3: has one games for South Sydney basically on his own

422
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,360
Speaker 3: playing in that center role. He and Tom Traboivitch are

423
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 3: almost not centers. When they play centers, they have to

424
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 3: use the old term rova.

425
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 2: They can have an impact, like against the Times he

426
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 2: come up with eighteen points, so he saved the Troy

427
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 2: against Jayden Campbell and set up too, so he can

428
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 2: have an impact no matter where he plays in the game.

429
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 2: Why do you think when he's fullback the kilometers that

430
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: he does without the ball in hand?

431
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 4: You know, you probably try.

432
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 3: To kick Ji Graves fullback seven and seven this year.

433
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 3: He's spent so it's almost irresistible.

434
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 1: But you can't keep him on the bench any longer,

435
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: can you?

436
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 5: Or I was pretty much in the campus Latrone needs

437
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 5: to play fullback. But the fact that he's not playing

438
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 5: twenty plus games, hasn't played twenty plus games a year

439
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 5: for South Sydney and Jy Graves form means something's got

440
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 5: to give them.

441
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: The South City rabbit Os and the Roosters, they absolutely

442
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,199
Speaker 1: hate each other and it's a great opportunity for the

443
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: Bunnies to just spoil the Rooster's party this week on

444
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: Friday Night on Fox League. But the Brendan Smith drama.

445
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 1: Does that add fuel of the fire? Does that a

446
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: little bit more fuel of the fire that's already burning,

447
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: put a tip over the edge, you'd hope.

448
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 3: So come on, if you're not telling me, there's not

449
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 3: a single person that wants to wouldn't love a Rapeter.

450
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 4: Sin Bin Sunday.

451
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: The thing about this.

452
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 3: Game, you look at a lineup for lineup Roosters and

453
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 3: Miles Better.

454
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:20,640
Speaker 4: Right.

455
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 3: But this game here right triggered the next game where

456
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 3: they all went after Jy Arrow.

457
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 4: Jy Arrow.

458
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 3: I think it was joy Row knocked out James de Desco, right,

459
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 3: he might have been one of the sixteen eighteen to

460
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 3: twenty players sent off in that game. Right, And the

461
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 3: next time they played, the Roosters lost their heads because

462
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,360
Speaker 3: they all they were more interested in bashing up Jy

463
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 3: Arrow than they were winning the game. And if they

464
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 3: take that attitude here.

465
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: This is where they've got to be careful here. If

466
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: they go if their goal is.

467
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 3: To rub it in the face of Brandon Smith, it's

468
00:20:58,440 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 3: the only way I can see them not winning.

469
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 2: You've got to match their intensity because South's are going

470
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 2: to come out intense, so you've got to go with them, Dan,

471
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 2: I know it. Sometimes accidents happen because you've got to

472
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: go really hard into the collision. You think that's what

473
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 2: South are going to try to do, right, They're not

474
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 2: going to try to beat them with finare so if

475
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 2: you don't match match it.

476
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 4: That's why amongs. These games are so enjoyable to watch.

477
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: And you have nothing to lose, and the have on

478
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: everything to lose, nothing to lose and arguably the best

479
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 1: team they put on the paddick all year. Yeah, with

480
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: Cam Murray, Bark Brenn and Smith's back, you've got ja

481
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: no troll hurts right of course, and they're still missing

482
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: a few other players, right, but you know it's probably

483
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: their strongest side that they put out a year.

484
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 2: The close thing I say is when I was at

485
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 2: South I went to a presentation night and we didn't

486
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 2: make the finals. They read out their score when they

487
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: beat the roosters, they just read it out every twenty

488
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 2: minutes and the crowd went up. The thousand went up

489
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 2: at the Red and Green ball, it went up like

490
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 2: twenty times. So no matter what happens in the year,

491
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 2: they just read out the rooster of score. So they're

492
00:21:58,040 --> 00:21:58,640
Speaker 2: up for it.

493
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 1: All right. I want a prediction from each of you.

494
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: How many symbins if any. We're not willing to go there,

495
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 1: you said, I.

496
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 3: Think it's too important to the rue.

497
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 2: Okay, I think for this game there should be a

498
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 2: button you can throw in a world card and have

499
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 2: no no bunker and if both clubs throw it in

500
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 2: like no bunker, so they can just go for it.

501
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 2: You would have done that every game though, No, but yeah,

502
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 2: but you only get one a year, just like the captains.

503
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: Like a w W qualification Get out Joe free card

504
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: from Gordy. Right there, did you go?

505
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 4: Simbons?

506
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: That was a good boy. Please got punch in their

507
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: head and he got SimBin. Well, there's no news on penalty.

508
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: He got the penalty, news on DC's rooster's move. When

509
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: it comes to mainly, it's time to say goodbye, all right.

510
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: It would be the same as last time.

511
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 7: Fellas, no chat about the future. I know you might

512
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 7: want to ask, but I won't want to ignore him,

513
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 7: but I probably won't answer it. So don't make those

514
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 7: decisions lightly and so sort of find it best in

515
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 7: years gone by to not.

516
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 5: Make that decision during the season.

517
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 4: Disrespect.

518
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 1: We should not talk about in the future. I'm going

519
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: to well, let's to believe everything out there. There's a

520
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: verb of contract with Can you set the records straight?

521
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 4: There's nothing on the table.

522
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 3: What can you say about the speculations.

523
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to say, thank you for your time.

524
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 5: Then I'll see this all later.

525
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: Thanks, very emotional. There time to say goodbye. DC bids

526
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 1: a farewell to Manly with his final game at Brookie.

527
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: Final game at Brookie. But when's he put the rooster's parlor? One?

528
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: Is it after this game? Or when's the press conference?

529
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: When's the announcement? Tell me after.

530
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 4: My contract? But I'll go on to eelevision and say that.

531
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 1: The saga is nearly over.

532
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're almost there, really there. But you know, mainly

533
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 5: fans have been pretty respectful to DC, haven't they, considering, well,

534
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 5: this could have got ugly for him, right, But the

535
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 5: way he's been received a brook year with the fans

536
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 5: and when you know, at his three fiftieth the other

537
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 5: week and things like that, so they've treated him with

538
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 5: respect and it could have gone either way this.

539
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: Interestingly Joey well sorry Dan, he makes his debut this week.

540
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: Highly tauted Junior.

541
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 3: I believe the plane could be could played the second

542
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 3: half with d C, so that's going to be interesting

543
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 3: if if that comes to fruition. It's a fascinating game

544
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 3: with the Warriors because the Warriors have something to play for,

545
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 3: but obviously men.

546
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, team seven.

547
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: But the Warriors may not have something to play for. No,

548
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: that's true, depending on the results before the Brisbane win,

549
00:24:58,320 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: They've got nothing that playful. They're going to be in

550
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 1: home in a knock out and I just I think

551
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: mainly at home again d c's final farewell.

552
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 3: You don't back against Manly this week, Yeah, you don't
