0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.039
<v Speaker 3>news to start with, Buzz. So you're trying to do

0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:11.600
<v Speaker 3>something that ready, who's in Paris hasn't been able to

0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:14.560
<v Speaker 3>do topple me on a Saturday in the ratings on

0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 3>the radio ratings?

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Is that true, your mate?

0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:20.520
<v Speaker 3>Are you dabbling on the airways on site?

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:23.200
<v Speaker 2>I've been very critically you over the years for s

0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 2>and ABC, Fox, Sports, Daily Telegram, right, anything else you

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:32.640
<v Speaker 2>do this podcast? So what's happened? Ready and cham Mus

0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 2>have gone away and they normally rotate Saturdays. I've got

0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:38.840
<v Speaker 2>a call from Triple Lamp and fill in there and

0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:41.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm very very confident I'll be able to give their

0:01:41.959 --> 0:01:42.759
<v Speaker 2>ratings a boost.

0:01:42.840 --> 0:01:47.240
<v Speaker 3>Well, they need a boost on a Saturday. Don't know, mate,

0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:48.640
<v Speaker 3>Yes you do?

0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>You know?

0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:51.200
<v Speaker 3>Don't you know?

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:53.640
<v Speaker 2>They clearly? But you're on a Sunday.

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay, what about Saturday?

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:55.600

<v Speaker 2>everyone's having a partner, everyone's having a bed. My daily

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:07.560
<v Speaker 2>station two K.

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Why have they brought your silence with this? This is

0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:11.640
<v Speaker 1>what's going on? Are you usually critical?

0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:16.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm not critics criticizing Triple M for three weeks.

0:02:17.440 --> 0:02:19.120
<v Speaker 3>I was just trying to slide this under the radar.

0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:22.000
<v Speaker 3>But I got sauces Buzzy and go head to head

0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:24.639
<v Speaker 3>on Saturday. Are you going to Well?

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:28.360
<v Speaker 1>I do usually listen to the the National broadcast with

0:02:28.440 --> 0:02:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Michael on there, so I.

0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 3>Know what you can do.

0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:36.400
<v Speaker 2>So that's that's not fair. I'm ready. You're playing favorites.

0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Well every other week I tuned.

0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:43.320
<v Speaker 2>But I speak is a very very solid, solid radio performer.

0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:45.880
<v Speaker 3>What you can do is listened to Buzz from twelve

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:46.280
<v Speaker 3>to two.

0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:50.399
<v Speaker 2>Well you're not under two, so that's what we're lying

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:54.800
<v Speaker 2>a whole. You can critique me.

0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:58.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm not care, but I will be listening on my

0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:00.360
<v Speaker 3>way in Buzz so I don't stuck up.

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.080
<v Speaker 2>We drop this free club. We're going to give them

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:04.919
<v Speaker 2>a massive audience from this body.

0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Well I'm a little concerned.

0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:08.480
<v Speaker 2>I do have another little row to go on.

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:11.640
<v Speaker 3>Oh the Maddie John's. Yeah, this guy is just cashing in?

0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:12.480
<v Speaker 3>What runs away?

0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:13.720
<v Speaker 1>He is?

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:13.920
<v Speaker 2>Is he?

0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 1>They're going to rename Bossy, Brandy and MC shot of

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:19.919
<v Speaker 1>morning You're on every morning?

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 2>I just get his money paid man in Sydney? Do

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:25.639
<v Speaker 2>you know?

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.120
<v Speaker 1>That was so he was so fatigued with s N

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:29.839
<v Speaker 1>this morning. They flicked back to him and he said,

0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:31.760
<v Speaker 1>thanks guys. See lad and hung up and they weren't

0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:32.280
<v Speaker 1>done with him.

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.920
<v Speaker 3>I didn't read Night with the Kids.

0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 2>Last night, and we stopped promoting other networks and actually.

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:45.760
<v Speaker 3>Give ABC from two o'clock on Saturday.

0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Then there you go, right, well, we're better get into

0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:52.720
<v Speaker 1>it because there's a fair bit going around busy.

0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:54.480
<v Speaker 3>It's been good you broke this story this week.

0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 1>John Bateman is leaving the West Tigers effective immediately.

0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:01.760
<v Speaker 3>For the end of the season and the end of

0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:05.320
<v Speaker 3>the season apparently, so yeah, it was an interesting one.

0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.360
<v Speaker 3>When John Bateman wasn't picked for this weekend's game, obviously

0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 3>started making some calls and around it found out that,

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.280
<v Speaker 3>you know, the Tigers have agreed to release him to

0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:17.400
<v Speaker 3>go join Warrington. Sam Burgess coach Warrington for the rest

0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:21.080
<v Speaker 3>of the year, and it's field speculation regarding where or

0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:24.000
<v Speaker 3>not whether or not Bateman will return to the Tigers.

0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:27.000
<v Speaker 3>I think it's unlikely. He's been linked with the potential

0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:30.720
<v Speaker 3>move to South Sydney next season, which would be interesting

0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:34.320
<v Speaker 3>under Wayne Bennett. And obviously that connection. You know, you've

0:04:34.320 --> 0:04:37.159
<v Speaker 3>got Wayne Bennett coaching Souers next year. You got Shane

0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:40.360
<v Speaker 3>Richardson at the Tigers, Sam Burgess at Warrington. All three

0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:44.040
<v Speaker 3>are very close in close circles, so there is that

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:47.479
<v Speaker 3>connection and a natural conclusion to draw that maybe he'll

0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:49.240
<v Speaker 3>be at South Sydney. It's important to say that South

0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:52.599
<v Speaker 3>Sydney said this morning that it's unlikely to happen, but

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:56.080
<v Speaker 3>I have heard the same rumors coming out of the UK.

0:04:57.000 --> 0:05:01.599
<v Speaker 2>Can I come up the long run here? Yeah? I did? Well,

0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:08.159
<v Speaker 2>this is a podcast, you do. I went ballistic a

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:13.200
<v Speaker 2>year or two ago when the West Tigers gave not

0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:18.200
<v Speaker 2>for a Luna to Melbourne Storm and it was Pasco

0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:22.720
<v Speaker 2>Hadjapentalis and Tim Sheen's that signed off on it, and

0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:26.000
<v Speaker 2>I wrote they've given up on their season because he

0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:29.920
<v Speaker 2>was a triscoring machine back then, and for them to

0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:32.680
<v Speaker 2>do the same under a different management. I just want

0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 2>to show you that I'm not just attacking Shane Richardson.

0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I've done it previously. I just think it's so wrong

0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:43.960
<v Speaker 2>me honestly, mate, I don't mate. They've got to win

0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:46.640
<v Speaker 2>every single and that bloke should go back to New

0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:49.720
<v Speaker 2>South Wales Cup, play his butt off and try and

0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 2>force his way back into that side. They are trying

0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 2>to avoid the Wooden spoon without a coach in Fiji.

0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:59.159
<v Speaker 2>We've had a CEO in England half the bloody year. Mate,

0:05:59.279 --> 0:05:59.839
<v Speaker 2>it's wrong.

0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:01.640
<v Speaker 3>I don't have an issue with it.

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:03.920
<v Speaker 1>As a paramatteral Fan, I'm all for it. I think

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:05.200
<v Speaker 1>they should a couple more.

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:08.719
<v Speaker 3>Buzz just said, like, his form doesn't warrant selections, So

0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:10.800
<v Speaker 3>if he doesn't warrant selection, every.

0:06:10.560 --> 0:06:13.640
<v Speaker 2>Player we dropped now we'll send the super made.

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:17.360
<v Speaker 3>It's not everything, but a player that you can save

0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 3>one hundred and fifty k off your cap potentially won't

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.279
<v Speaker 3>be there. Like if he's already, if he's I don't think.

0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:25.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. If that, I don't I don't think

0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:27.680
<v Speaker 3>that's a sign of them giving up on this year.

0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:30.320
<v Speaker 3>I think it's a sign that potentially relationship there is

0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:34.119
<v Speaker 3>beyond repair. He hasn't been playing well, but I would agree,

0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:36.800
<v Speaker 3>come out and tell us the truth. I would agree

0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:40.120
<v Speaker 3>with you truth. I would agree with you if he

0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:43.160
<v Speaker 3>was their best player this year, I'd agree. Like on

0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:45.719
<v Speaker 3>at the end this morning, they the boys were saying

0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:50.360
<v Speaker 3>that Stefano signs elsewhere, they wouldn't pick him in first grade.

0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 3>I totally disagree with.

0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:55.520
<v Speaker 1>That, Wayne Bennett, Justin Hodges, that would.

0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:57.799
<v Speaker 3>Be giving up on this year. Right, it's the final

0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:00.520
<v Speaker 3>hasn't been great the last few weeks, but he still

0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:02.560
<v Speaker 3>arguably one of their top players.

0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 2>The whole place. No one wants to play there at

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:08.040
<v Speaker 2>the moment. Look, and I think will hear more Locklan

0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:10.200
<v Speaker 2>Galvin the off season. I don't go back on what

0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:13.280
<v Speaker 2>I said six eight weeks ago. He told people in

0:07:13.320 --> 0:07:16.840
<v Speaker 2>that shed that he wanted out and look, it's obviously

0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:19.800
<v Speaker 2>a really, really unhappy place and that comes from losing

0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:22.920
<v Speaker 2>the line in the row. They came back and tend

0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.200
<v Speaker 2>the row, was it? I just think it's some of

0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:26.800
<v Speaker 2>the Stefano is going awful.

0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:28.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he hasn't been good the last few weeks, There's

0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:29.840
<v Speaker 3>no doubt about that.

0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:35.960
<v Speaker 2>You know, Batement's not on his own, mate, But I.

0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:35.160
<v Speaker 3>He hasn't been good.

0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 2>But as I said, you've got to think of the

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:39.000
<v Speaker 2>fan here, mate, the bloke he pays to sit on

0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:42.200
<v Speaker 2>the hill like goes to Campbelltown membership at the start

0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:42.720
<v Speaker 2>of the year.

0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:45.200
<v Speaker 3>But I reckon if you pull the fans, they would

0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:48.480
<v Speaker 3>agree with this. I don't.

0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:51.480
<v Speaker 2>I think I think saying if you've listened to the fans,

0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:53.000
<v Speaker 2>you'll finish up sitting out there with it.

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 1>You just said we have to think of the fans.

0:07:55.680 --> 0:07:58.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, I do, but you know, I think a senior

0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:06.120
<v Speaker 2>moment to him, forget what you said? It smart, but

0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:07.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm agreeing with you.

0:08:08.040 --> 0:08:09.760
<v Speaker 1>It was self critiquing you three six.

0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:15.680
<v Speaker 3>No, no, no, I just was affluencing my performance last wasn't.

0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, tell you what I'll do.

0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:18.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't watch it now.

0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:22.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to go home. I'm going to watch it

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 2>and I'm going to text your rating. I'm not going

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:27.400
<v Speaker 2>to do a public I'm going to privately try to

0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:28.240
<v Speaker 2>help you.

0:08:28.280 --> 0:08:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Can you see me on this on this just for

0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:33.319
<v Speaker 1>staff performance, but you know I look on you as

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 1>a mentor of manager of.

0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:40.280
<v Speaker 2>We've certainly got the gibber back up to ten weeks.

0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:42.040
<v Speaker 3>Far more natural. But yeah, I don't know. What do

0:08:42.040 --> 0:08:42.439
<v Speaker 3>you think? Mom?

0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:43.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't mind.

0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:44.679
<v Speaker 3>I actually don't have an issue.

0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:49.560
<v Speaker 1>I always had a feeling, and whether this is warrant

0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:52.280
<v Speaker 1>or not, that when they signed your own lay that

0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:56.079
<v Speaker 1>this year it wasn't a right off. But I thought

0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:57.920
<v Speaker 1>that they were just going to they'll get through this

0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>year and next year when it is when it really

0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.640
<v Speaker 1>he starts, I thought, I don't know, that's just a vibe.

0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:04.920
<v Speaker 1>It sort of felt like for me, and you know

0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:07.040
<v Speaker 1>they've got to as you say, at the moment, they're

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.360
<v Speaker 1>trying to move people along. We'll get to that shortly

0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 1>about this part of the clean out and who they're

0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:13.320
<v Speaker 1>going to try and bring in and who they're going

0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.680
<v Speaker 1>to let go because obviously the Scott Fulton situation where

0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:19.720
<v Speaker 1>they he brought in players and they're overloaded in positions,

0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:21.400
<v Speaker 1>They've got a lot of they've got a lot of

0:09:21.440 --> 0:09:22.080
<v Speaker 1>work to do there.

0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:26.640
<v Speaker 2>But actually don't know Benji Marshall mate, because I don't

0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:29.079
<v Speaker 2>think he did the apprenticeship. You know, he wasn't out

0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:33.719
<v Speaker 2>of Robinson or Bellamy or Bennett systems. Tim Sheenz came

0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:36.280
<v Speaker 2>back a long time in England, sacked from a couple

0:09:36.320 --> 0:09:39.840
<v Speaker 2>of clubs over there, out of touch with NRL, and

0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:43.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he did an apprenticeship't basically training at

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:44.200
<v Speaker 2>the deep end.

0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:47.120
<v Speaker 1>Hasn't actually coasted a side, hasn't it coasted a reserve

0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:48.360
<v Speaker 1>grade team or anything like.

0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:50.720
<v Speaker 2>He's having a whack, guys, he's having a whack. I

0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:52.800
<v Speaker 2>did that call HM a couple of mondays ago and

0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:55.960
<v Speaker 2>he had two hours sleep then went the recovery and

0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:59.679
<v Speaker 2>he's trying. He's working hard. That the stories early in

0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:02.480
<v Speaker 2>the year. You know, Dog put it out there. Does

0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:05.040
<v Speaker 2>he have that work? I think yeah, he's unusually plays

0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:08.240
<v Speaker 2>golf at different times of the week, but I think

0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:09.440
<v Speaker 2>he's having a red hot guard.

0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:12.960
<v Speaker 3>It's a tough gig for that roster, it is, mate.

0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:14.720
<v Speaker 3>It's a tough gig for a site that's been at

0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:17.800
<v Speaker 3>the bottom. You know, facing three straight wooden spoons doesn't

0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:19.560
<v Speaker 3>matter which coach you are. It's harder for a guy

0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.600
<v Speaker 3>that hasn't coached at any level before, it's even harder.

0:10:22.760 --> 0:10:24.559
<v Speaker 2>It's a bit like Ralsey when he got back to

0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:28.319
<v Speaker 2>Georgia Lawara because of the you know, the size of

0:10:28.400 --> 0:10:31.800
<v Speaker 2>the rebuilt and it took some hard head he'd been

0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.160
<v Speaker 2>around forever and won a title to go in there.

0:10:34.400 --> 0:10:36.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was the best. It's the best thing that

0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:37.240
<v Speaker 3>happened to Benji.

0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Benji didn't show a lot of patience. He had a

0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:42.959
<v Speaker 2>great TV gig at Fox Sports. Didn't he yet his

0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.080
<v Speaker 2>own show. He's seen him in the green room on

0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:49.960
<v Speaker 2>Monday nights. But he wanted to be coached and they

0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:53.560
<v Speaker 2>fast tracked him a year early. So I think there's

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:55.319
<v Speaker 2>a lot in there. And as much as Rich has

0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:59.079
<v Speaker 2>got that tremendous record. This is a mass This is

0:10:59.120 --> 0:10:59.959
<v Speaker 2>bigger than Canterbury.

0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:04.000
<v Speaker 3>I reckon. Yeah, they have. The difference is they've got

0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:07.560
<v Speaker 3>the foundations in particularly the key position right it provided

0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.360
<v Speaker 3>they all stay. That's the advantage they've got. They've got

0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:12.800
<v Speaker 3>their long term one, they've got their long term six

0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:14.920
<v Speaker 3>and seven with lu I come in next year. They've

0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:17.679
<v Speaker 3>got a star hooker and an emerging hooker. So if

0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:20.360
<v Speaker 3>you look at their one, six, seven, nine, they're set.

0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:23.840
<v Speaker 3>So then then you add some pieces in and around it,

0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 3>so it's not Honestly, I think the Dragons squad.

0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:30.960
<v Speaker 2>Didn't you run last?

0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:34.800
<v Speaker 3>I did not not camera Tigers.

0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 2>I did as I'm asking. No, I'm not accusing, I'm asked.

0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:42.600
<v Speaker 1>I dug I dug them out yesterday and I.

0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:52.240
<v Speaker 3>Sent them to one s flun against. He keeps telling

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:54.440
<v Speaker 3>everyone publicly that I tipped them to come last, and

0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:56.440
<v Speaker 3>I said, I told him, where did you tip in

0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.160
<v Speaker 3>the second last? You know what?

0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:01.079
<v Speaker 2>That's that's the same thing I'm running with.

0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:05.520
<v Speaker 1>Flat tipped the Tigers.

0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 2>Well shame when dallim Coach of the Year.

0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:11.480
<v Speaker 3>I think it could come down to that game. In

0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:13.600
<v Speaker 3>a couple of weeks between the dragons and dogs.

0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:16.640
<v Speaker 2>I think I think it's crap. This Coach of the year.

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:19.400
<v Speaker 2>What they do They always give it to the rookie

0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:22.000
<v Speaker 2>and the blake who's come from nowhere, and Webster got

0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:25.440
<v Speaker 2>it last year. Great year. But can we please give

0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:27.319
<v Speaker 2>it the Craig Bell of me or can we please

0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:28.400
<v Speaker 2>give it the clear.

0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:30.640
<v Speaker 3>I would have no issue with you. Neither of those

0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.720
<v Speaker 3>two sides finished first, and the other one is I

0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:38.520
<v Speaker 3>think Ben Bennett has done in our standing. Ja they

0:12:38.559 --> 0:12:41.360
<v Speaker 3>make the top four, I'd go away and then either

0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 3>Serrouto or Flann again whoever. I don't think both of

0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:45.880
<v Speaker 3>those sides will make the eight. I think one of

0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:49.080
<v Speaker 3>them will, and whichever one makes the eight will be

0:12:49.160 --> 0:12:50.240
<v Speaker 3>up in contention as well.

0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:51.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah there you go.

0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and then you've got poor Benji with that rebuild job.

0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:58.040
<v Speaker 1>He's got to because what are they gonna do at

0:12:58.080 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 1>the door in your.

0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:00.400
<v Speaker 3>Nah he's gone, he went there.

0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:05.320
<v Speaker 2>He's not going to Melbourne, You sure? I don't think.

0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:09.959
<v Speaker 2>From what I'm told is his loves the football side

0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:14.040
<v Speaker 2>of it, but his wife doesn't like Melbourne. I'm not

0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:17.240
<v Speaker 2>journ she doesn't hate Melbourne.

0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:20.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, it is a young kids. When the two

0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:24.200
<v Speaker 3>young kids, right, they're young, he's they're a young couple

0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:27.040
<v Speaker 3>as well, So it would be a challenge if.

0:13:27.080 --> 0:13:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Melbourne storm in Sydney go there for sure, So.

0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:31.520
<v Speaker 3>That means you've got him go to the Dogs bus

0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:33.280
<v Speaker 3>because the only other club that we're in for him

0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:34.360
<v Speaker 3>is the Dolphins.

0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:38.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well I don't know.

0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:40.319
<v Speaker 3>So I wouldn't rule the Dolphins on the storm out

0:13:40.400 --> 0:13:43.720
<v Speaker 3>yet Dogs are there as well, but yeah, it won't

0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:44.520
<v Speaker 3>be at the Tigers.

0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:47.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, breaking use for you and spork on going up

0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:52.480
<v Speaker 1>online just about now Bulldogs Yeah, Ford reinforcements not coming.

0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:56.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's an interesting one. Obviously we've seen John Bateman

0:13:56.679 --> 0:13:59.920
<v Speaker 3>go to the Super League and the NRL signed off

0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:04.760
<v Speaker 3>on that. The nrlte the Bulldogs sorry, went to the

0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:08.200
<v Speaker 3>NRL and asked if they could sign Takyaho for the

0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:10.760
<v Speaker 3>rest of this year after the June thirty deadline. Obviously

0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:15.040
<v Speaker 3>he's been sacked from Catalan to the NRL. Well, that's

0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:17.600
<v Speaker 3>why he's not there at the moment, but his body's okay.

0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:19.360
<v Speaker 3>Hasn't played a game so far this year and that's

0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 3>why when he was going to sign for the Dogs

0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:24.840
<v Speaker 3>last year it got he got scuttled because of the

0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:28.360
<v Speaker 3>fact that he failed his medical but six months on

0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:30.560
<v Speaker 3>a bit longer than that, they feel like his body

0:14:30.600 --> 0:14:31.920
<v Speaker 3>is right, so they tried to sign him for the

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:35.320
<v Speaker 3>rest of this year after June thirty.

0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:39.680
<v Speaker 2>So he got sacked two weeks during COVID years and stuff.

0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:43.120
<v Speaker 3>August one, for a little bit that that transferred deadline

0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:45.120
<v Speaker 3>was allowed to come back from Rugby was Haynes.

0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:49.440
<v Speaker 2>But he come back from league though, wouldn't he It's

0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:54.000
<v Speaker 2>probably fair enough. You can't have everyone. I don't know.

0:14:54.240 --> 0:14:56.280
<v Speaker 3>I actually didn't mind the August one deadline. I liked

0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:59.520
<v Speaker 3>the late horse trading and clubs going all in to

0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:02.760
<v Speaker 3>win a comp. That's some salary cap space and whatever

0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.560
<v Speaker 3>the case. Maybe I know it sets a false economy

0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:07.000
<v Speaker 3>a little bit on the cap, but it.

0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Gets cranky about other teams giving up the season.

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:13.000
<v Speaker 3>If you're letting go you could have, you know, I

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.560
<v Speaker 3>do wonder with this Bateman scenario, if we're going to

0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:18.720
<v Speaker 3>see sides fall out of the eight send players are

0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:20.240
<v Speaker 3>players that want to have a little bit of a

0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:23.240
<v Speaker 3>life experience for a couple of months. Could point if

0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:25.640
<v Speaker 3>they do go and play in a super league off

0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:26.440
<v Speaker 3>the super league.

0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:29.600
<v Speaker 2>That on radio, that's a very good point.

0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.280
<v Speaker 3>I can see it. First, if you're you know, if

0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:35.360
<v Speaker 3>you're a bottom four side, you've got a kid that

0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:38.600
<v Speaker 3>wants to travel and see the world a little bit, go.

0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:40.760
<v Speaker 2>And you save cap money, you can, Yeah, you save

0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:41.400
<v Speaker 2>cap money.

0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:45.480
<v Speaker 3>So it does I think we could say it potentially,

0:15:45.560 --> 0:15:46.360
<v Speaker 3>especially those.

0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:48.600
<v Speaker 2>Maybe that's your solution of power. Just let the whole

0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:53.680
<v Speaker 2>turn go. Yeah, what do you reckon? You play in

0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:55.600
<v Speaker 2>the same Jersey's leads, don't you just send them to

0:15:55.640 --> 0:16:02.920
<v Speaker 2>the Leads family today. I'm going to use this between

0:16:02.920 --> 0:16:06.040
<v Speaker 2>twelve and two Saturday Triple m don't I might skip

0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:07.120
<v Speaker 2>in the Tony Squire.

0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:12.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to do my secondary item on Saturday's column.

0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:16.560
<v Speaker 1>So you're doing that too, doing a lot my goodness shoulders.

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Did you see way Graham speaking of that? Do you

0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:23.880
<v Speaker 1>see the footage of the Origin call and Wade Graham

0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:26.560
<v Speaker 1>was in there with Dean Ganain and I think Wally

0:16:26.680 --> 0:16:28.440
<v Speaker 1>was Wally laws Pool while he was sitting down there.

0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:30.880
<v Speaker 1>But every time those last couple of tries for the

0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Blues wide, you could see what it meant to what

0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:36.680
<v Speaker 1>it meant to the former Origin star. Way Graham was

0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:37.960
<v Speaker 1>very happy to see the Blues win.

0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:41.120
<v Speaker 2>It was the year our old Boys return to, wouldn't

0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:43.880
<v Speaker 2>it you know? When we showed Queensland, ours was passionate

0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:44.400
<v Speaker 2>as their.

0:16:44.520 --> 0:16:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I like the story coming out of the

0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:50.280
<v Speaker 1>North Queensland as well. That because they had so many

0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Origin players up there, whether there was a little bit

0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:59.640
<v Speaker 1>of a bit sullen after Origin and they said no, no.

0:16:59.720 --> 0:17:02.960
<v Speaker 1>The Blues Reice Robinson particular was pretty ugnanimous about it,

0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:06.640
<v Speaker 1>and I said, but then it comes.

0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Very much.

0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:08.560
<v Speaker 1>He felt.

0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:13.640
<v Speaker 2>I ended up for a set that jacket. Where's that from?

0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I've got no idea.

0:17:15.640 --> 0:17:16.240
<v Speaker 3>It's a bit old.

0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:20.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm urging people listening to us to watch us. I

0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:23.520
<v Speaker 2>was going to say, it looks very old, and it looked. Mate.

0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:25.760
<v Speaker 2>I had to duck through layers to get some Mondays

0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:28.520
<v Speaker 2>the other day, and I'm sure I saw that. I'm

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:30.560
<v Speaker 2>sure I saw it on the rack. Michael.

0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:35.720
<v Speaker 3>The reason I'm wearing it because I was story. I

0:17:35.720 --> 0:17:37.960
<v Speaker 3>was wearing it to three sixty last night and with

0:17:38.000 --> 0:17:40.800
<v Speaker 3>the T shirt on and Mitch Diffin, the producer goes,

0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:41.920
<v Speaker 3>you have to wear that on the point tomorrow. I

0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:46.000
<v Speaker 3>want to see Buzz's reaction. And he's a listener to

0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:49.640
<v Speaker 3>this or a viewer. You have to let him know.

0:17:50.520 --> 0:17:54.119
<v Speaker 2>Your wife didn't buy it. I will now go on

0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:56.160
<v Speaker 2>record saying it's the worst top I've ever seen.

0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:00.240
<v Speaker 3>Brought this into the UK. When I was doing it,

0:18:03.640 --> 0:18:08.480
<v Speaker 3>that is lows, I saw one of can we get it?

0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:09.240
<v Speaker 3>Could be Gap?

0:18:09.400 --> 0:18:13.199
<v Speaker 2>What is it they are? There's a camera Gap Gap?

0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh Gay? Really Gap? GAP's not a bad brand?

0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Actually, yeah, there you go.

0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:19.840
<v Speaker 3>Wow, I knew it wasn't.

0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:22.520
<v Speaker 2>Had a spell put that one out for a spell too.

0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:24.879
<v Speaker 3>I will see you in ten weeks.

0:18:24.880 --> 0:18:28.640
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, we've got to pull together. Now it's Olympics time.

0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:29.800
<v Speaker 1>We don't have many of us around.

0:18:29.880 --> 0:18:30.960
<v Speaker 3>Do you like the Olympics?

0:18:31.240 --> 0:18:31.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:35.679
<v Speaker 2>Absolute wonder the Matilda's play Friday night, Saturday morning.

0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Friday, Friday morning times.

0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:43.600
<v Speaker 2>I'd nearly get up to what matildas are. Love them?

0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:46.320
<v Speaker 1>Yep, yep, I think that'll be good. What about Paul

0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:48.119
<v Speaker 1>mick On? I don't want to keep plugging in the

0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:50.200
<v Speaker 1>other day. But BOSSI and Brandy ahead of the INNI

0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:53.800
<v Speaker 1>of w season launch, we're very excited, saying that women's

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:57.480
<v Speaker 1>rugby league had ascended to the top of women's sports

0:18:57.520 --> 0:19:01.040
<v Speaker 1>that are also played by men. They said, you're with us,

0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:03.080
<v Speaker 1>and he went nah.

0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:07.760
<v Speaker 3>Well, the Matilda's Hello, Tilda's cricket team.

0:19:08.240 --> 0:19:10.560
<v Speaker 2>I've done, my saint on the launch of the nrl

0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:11.520
<v Speaker 2>WS season.

0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:13.560
<v Speaker 3>This is not a sledge of no, no, no, But.

0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:16.840
<v Speaker 2>What I'm saying is I think it's sat in two

0:19:16.840 --> 0:19:21.440
<v Speaker 2>thousand and eight, seventeen years there were four teams and

0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:27.280
<v Speaker 2>it was an okay comp What it's grown into is

0:19:27.320 --> 0:19:29.280
<v Speaker 2>the fastest growing area of the game.

0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:31.879
<v Speaker 3>But that wasn't the question. But would you rank them

0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:35.439
<v Speaker 3>along to see their origin? TV rating did three times

0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:40.040
<v Speaker 3>the Wallaby got last week again, again not the question, right,

0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:44.760
<v Speaker 3>would you rank the Matildas ahead of the nrl W Yes, okay.

0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:49.920
<v Speaker 4>Thanks, Well, that's all I was saying that I thought

0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:53.320
<v Speaker 4>it was very good that the Matildas and the cricketers

0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:54.520
<v Speaker 4>were probably playing there.

0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:57.320
<v Speaker 3>They've been playing for tenis, have been playing for ten

0:19:57.359 --> 0:20:00.359
<v Speaker 3>years before they get into the elite programs where the

0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:02.920
<v Speaker 3>rugby league players. Now, you know you've got those twenty

0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:04.560
<v Speaker 3>twenty one year olds that have come into the system

0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:06.800
<v Speaker 3>been playing four or five years before that.

0:20:07.160 --> 0:20:09.600
<v Speaker 2>There's something we don't have a mery fowl, right, Well.

0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:11.680
<v Speaker 3>I'm saying that in ten years time, when they started

0:20:11.680 --> 0:20:14.720
<v Speaker 3>playing at six, seven, eight, nine. Really, quality will be

0:20:14.840 --> 0:20:17.479
<v Speaker 3>far different and it will catch up to the soccer

0:20:17.520 --> 0:20:18.920
<v Speaker 3>and the cricket. But it's not there yet.

0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Please.

0:20:19.640 --> 0:20:24.439
<v Speaker 2>I didn't say it was this conversation you've trained to

0:20:24.600 --> 0:20:25.760
<v Speaker 2>from me saying I'll get.

0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:28.920
<v Speaker 3>Up watching the team. That was the bloke in the chair.

0:20:29.000 --> 0:20:30.640
<v Speaker 3>I on a wing.

0:20:31.080 --> 0:20:33.520
<v Speaker 2>I thought tal on the show got waters and you're

0:20:33.560 --> 0:20:46.359
<v Speaker 2>sitting there they do. I forgotten, Michael, Come on, come on.

0:20:47.560 --> 0:20:48.360
<v Speaker 3>I gotcha there.

0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:51.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh I got I want a little segment here called

0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:57.000
<v Speaker 1>stay or go right and buzzes going, that's two and

0:20:57.040 --> 0:20:58.920
<v Speaker 1>I might have to cut your micae off. All right.

0:20:59.400 --> 0:21:01.639
<v Speaker 1>I just want to know where you think these players

0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:05.160
<v Speaker 1>futures lie, because some are off contracts, some are uncertain.

0:21:05.560 --> 0:21:08.320
<v Speaker 1>We just want to see where things are because some

0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:10.840
<v Speaker 1>could be some different postcodes for some of these guys

0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:15.000
<v Speaker 1>next season. So, and this is without any self the

0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:18.159
<v Speaker 1>self grandizing here, Blaze t Lung yet, Paramatta, where do

0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:19.120
<v Speaker 1>you see him next year?

0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:23.679
<v Speaker 3>Stays Oh, yeah, what, I.

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:27.280
<v Speaker 2>Honestly don't know.

0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:33.040
<v Speaker 3>I think we're just having an informed opinion here. I

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:35.439
<v Speaker 3>think it's not we're not locking it in concrete, but

0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:39.000
<v Speaker 3>I think he stays. Dragons haven't heard much lately. It's

0:21:39.040 --> 0:21:41.679
<v Speaker 3>been radio silence. The Dolphins are gone in hard for

0:21:41.760 --> 0:21:43.400
<v Speaker 3>him as well. They've sort of slid under the radar

0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:45.280
<v Speaker 3>a little bit. Newcast aren't in.

0:21:47.000 --> 0:21:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Bold signing by Dolphins, they could.

0:21:52.560 --> 0:21:57.359
<v Speaker 3>Well be a long term hards partner for Katoa gotcha.

0:21:57.400 --> 0:22:00.800
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, they've gone big in for those So you

0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:02.960
<v Speaker 3>add those two and it's quite a formidable side. But

0:22:03.040 --> 0:22:04.000
<v Speaker 3>I think he stays.

0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:07.280
<v Speaker 1>And you're talking obviously with Blaze. There's writer who is

0:22:07.320 --> 0:22:11.200
<v Speaker 1>the young prop who was Schoolboy Cup National school Boy

0:22:11.240 --> 0:22:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Cup this month as well. Again, so you maybe talk

0:22:14.960 --> 0:22:18.560
<v Speaker 1>as a package deal. His dad's coaches in Cabramatta and.

0:22:20.000 --> 0:22:24.400
<v Speaker 2>The third game. Yes, he's an outstanding through, he said

0:22:26.160 --> 0:22:29.399
<v Speaker 2>right right as a prop, am I getting mixed up

0:22:29.400 --> 0:22:32.880
<v Speaker 2>with the other kids from Yeah he had surgery. Yeah

0:22:33.160 --> 0:22:35.919
<v Speaker 2>he is a very good player. He lockdown, isn't he?

0:22:37.200 --> 0:22:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Do they have him? I like to check because he is.

0:22:40.920 --> 0:22:44.639
<v Speaker 2>He is reminds me of the same age Hard Greats.

0:22:44.960 --> 0:22:47.280
<v Speaker 2>Not saying he's going to be Hard Greas, but he

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:50.399
<v Speaker 2>tear away like Hard Grease was at that age.

0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:53.120
<v Speaker 3>It was definitely a point of difference and saying we're

0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:54.159
<v Speaker 3>not going to see him in the back end of

0:22:54.160 --> 0:22:56.080
<v Speaker 3>the year. But he'll play plenty of first grade next year.

0:22:56.520 --> 0:22:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Good good player.

0:22:58.400 --> 0:23:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, next one jo on Babman West Tigers, I.

0:23:01.440 --> 0:23:01.959
<v Speaker 3>Don't think so.

0:23:03.720 --> 0:23:05.360
<v Speaker 2>No, I think England or Souse.

0:23:06.480 --> 0:23:10.719
<v Speaker 1>I agree with buzz Wow, Okay, Daniel Cepheidiat the Knights.

0:23:11.920 --> 0:23:13.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to say Stays.

0:23:14.359 --> 0:23:19.000
<v Speaker 2>I was actually told that he's not one of the players. Well.

0:23:19.080 --> 0:23:22.240
<v Speaker 2>I spoke to Peter Sullivan accell and Peter said that

0:23:22.280 --> 0:23:25.840
<v Speaker 2>he's not that dirty about and thinks his career might

0:23:25.880 --> 0:23:29.080
<v Speaker 2>need a reset and a fresh start. Might be that

0:23:29.280 --> 0:23:31.840
<v Speaker 2>being the case, I'd say st George Lawara.

0:23:31.760 --> 0:23:33.879
<v Speaker 3>I just think it's the money. Buzz.

0:23:33.960 --> 0:23:38.399
<v Speaker 2>I think George paid five hundred, Newcastle might pay two hundred.

0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:39.920
<v Speaker 3>You don't have to pay more than that. All three

0:23:40.720 --> 0:23:42.320
<v Speaker 3>a lot of money. That's the issue.

0:23:42.320 --> 0:23:45.040
<v Speaker 2>That's but if you don't want someone, you've got to.

0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:46.679
<v Speaker 3>Take a hit. You're going to take a hit. But

0:23:46.800 --> 0:23:49.480
<v Speaker 3>when he gets to three hundred plus, you've got to

0:23:49.480 --> 0:23:52.159
<v Speaker 3>replace him on one hundred and fifty thousand dollars players,

0:23:52.240 --> 0:23:54.040
<v Speaker 3>So you're going to pay three. That's a five hundred

0:23:54.080 --> 0:23:57.439
<v Speaker 3>thousand dollars player essentially, and he's worth that, so that

0:23:57.600 --> 0:24:00.440
<v Speaker 3>it becomes there's a point in the cap where it's

0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:02.879
<v Speaker 3>just not worth selling a player because you're going to

0:24:02.960 --> 0:24:05.000
<v Speaker 3>have to replace. You have to replace them, and if

0:24:05.040 --> 0:24:07.240
<v Speaker 3>you were spending three fifty out of your cap per

0:24:07.320 --> 0:24:09.199
<v Speaker 3>season for them to play against you, I wouldn't do it.

0:24:10.000 --> 0:24:12.800
<v Speaker 3>That's that's the only issue. Dragons are keen. He's done

0:24:12.800 --> 0:24:17.400
<v Speaker 3>a medical. There was some minor concerns over his shoulder,

0:24:17.480 --> 0:24:18.840
<v Speaker 3>just minor minor concerns.

0:24:19.840 --> 0:24:20.760
<v Speaker 2>The same work today.

0:24:21.840 --> 0:24:25.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So I don't know. I'm not as convinced Dragons

0:24:25.040 --> 0:24:26.560
<v Speaker 3>are Kane. But the Dragon is gonna have to up

0:24:26.560 --> 0:24:29.159
<v Speaker 3>their offer to get the deal done, and if it

0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:30.800
<v Speaker 3>doesn't happen, he'll be at the Knights.

0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:34.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, speaking of Dragons, Blake Laurie.

0:24:35.520 --> 0:24:39.040
<v Speaker 3>Dragons or Super League, but he's got a long term

0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:42.160
<v Speaker 3>deal there. Out of first grade at the moment hasn't

0:24:42.200 --> 0:24:43.000
<v Speaker 3>been great.

0:24:45.600 --> 0:24:48.560
<v Speaker 2>And I heard open clearly wrapping Blake Lurry the other day,

0:24:50.359 --> 0:24:51.360
<v Speaker 2>wrapping in big time.

0:24:51.480 --> 0:24:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he won't be playing against the Panthers this week.

0:24:54.800 --> 0:24:57.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't think Blake Laurie so I.

0:24:57.720 --> 0:25:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Think as the.

0:25:01.720 --> 0:25:06.600
<v Speaker 3>Dan Lorry. Yeah, we're talking about Blake Lorry, Buzz Blake Lay.

0:25:07.000 --> 0:25:10.800
<v Speaker 3>I wasn't sure where you're going with Sloan. Yeah, sorry, sorry,

0:25:10.960 --> 0:25:11.600
<v Speaker 3>what a dope.

0:25:13.160 --> 0:25:13.840
<v Speaker 2>Blake Laurie.

0:25:13.960 --> 0:25:18.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, he won their Player of the Year last year,

0:25:18.040 --> 0:25:21.280
<v Speaker 3>Black Laurry. But he just hasn't what's happened. He just

0:25:21.320 --> 0:25:22.960
<v Speaker 3>looks like he's just slowed up.

0:25:23.040 --> 0:25:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Well, he looked he looked very, very spelt at the start.

0:25:26.800 --> 0:25:28.560
<v Speaker 3>He saw him. I saw him, I need I went

0:25:28.560 --> 0:25:30.760
<v Speaker 3>to pre season training at the Dragons and I said

0:25:30.800 --> 0:25:33.040
<v Speaker 3>to him, mate, you're looking lean like you're looking for.

0:25:33.240 --> 0:25:37.760
<v Speaker 2>I saw him too and watching Jim and he looked good.

0:25:37.920 --> 0:25:41.760
<v Speaker 2>He looked too fit. Yeah, maybe he's lost a little size.

0:25:41.119 --> 0:25:43.520
<v Speaker 3>Maybe, Yeah, but yeah, so.

0:25:46.359 --> 0:25:48.120
<v Speaker 2>Sorry for him because he's had to carry that back

0:25:48.200 --> 0:25:48.800
<v Speaker 2>for long time.

0:25:48.840 --> 0:25:50.200
<v Speaker 3>It's been hard on him. Yeah, and he's a good

0:25:50.240 --> 0:25:52.200
<v Speaker 3>guy and they love him around the club and he's

0:25:52.200 --> 0:25:54.760
<v Speaker 3>a leader, which they don't have a lot of. But

0:25:54.840 --> 0:25:57.040
<v Speaker 3>he's at the moment his performance just not up to it.

0:25:57.359 --> 0:25:57.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:25:58.520 --> 0:26:01.879
<v Speaker 1>Matt Arthur at the Eels obviously been granted permission to

0:26:01.920 --> 0:26:05.640
<v Speaker 1>negotiate elsewhere on the back of his dad out the door.

0:26:06.200 --> 0:26:08.960
<v Speaker 1>It's a blow for par because he was the good

0:26:09.000 --> 0:26:11.239
<v Speaker 1>young hooker coming through the ranks that they saw as

0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:12.720
<v Speaker 1>a long term pot a long term.

0:26:12.600 --> 0:26:15.639
<v Speaker 3>Number one, it's a position that they struggled. An instance,

0:26:15.680 --> 0:26:21.679
<v Speaker 3>red Man left Newcastle potentially for Matt Arthur.

0:26:21.480 --> 0:26:23.840
<v Speaker 2>But that's going to depend on the guy. We're about

0:26:23.880 --> 0:26:25.920
<v Speaker 2>to get to Jade and Brayley and what happens there.

0:26:26.000 --> 0:26:28.560
<v Speaker 2>Where do you sell Jade and Bradley to with those knees.

0:26:28.600 --> 0:26:32.640
<v Speaker 1>He's had decent, decent wage for the next He's off

0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:34.360
<v Speaker 1>contract in the months.

0:26:34.200 --> 0:26:37.119
<v Speaker 3>Right, So these guys like Sophiti and Brady in particular,

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:41.760
<v Speaker 3>Brailey isn't being forced out, but it's a conversation where

0:26:41.800 --> 0:26:44.000
<v Speaker 3>mate like, we're not going to extend. If we do extend,

0:26:44.080 --> 0:26:46.440
<v Speaker 3>it's going to be on a fraction of what you

0:26:46.560 --> 0:26:48.880
<v Speaker 3>want on. So if you can find a long term deal,

0:26:48.920 --> 0:26:49.520
<v Speaker 3>we'll let you go.

0:26:50.280 --> 0:26:52.920
<v Speaker 2>It's the coach trying to pressure up there when I said,

0:26:53.040 --> 0:26:56.920
<v Speaker 2>not under pressure his job, but was right raising the

0:26:57.000 --> 0:26:59.960
<v Speaker 2>other day that there's a few unhappy there.

0:27:00.040 --> 0:27:02.119
<v Speaker 3>I hadn't heard that, so funny.

0:27:02.119 --> 0:27:04.200
<v Speaker 2>I had a manage to ring me on Monday, who's

0:27:04.240 --> 0:27:07.119
<v Speaker 2>not involved with a big group of players there, and

0:27:07.160 --> 0:27:12.640
<v Speaker 2>I started chasing it. Someone else confirmed it, and then

0:27:12.720 --> 0:27:15.520
<v Speaker 2>someone told me Dave Ricky was talking about last week

0:27:15.560 --> 0:27:19.040
<v Speaker 2>and Dave's got as you know, it's got certain connections

0:27:19.080 --> 0:27:21.879
<v Speaker 2>in Newcastle and that's why I raised it. I checked

0:27:21.880 --> 0:27:28.320
<v Speaker 2>it for Peter passaid. It happens in rosters when you're

0:27:28.600 --> 0:27:29.720
<v Speaker 2>facing a clean out.

0:27:30.040 --> 0:27:33.200
<v Speaker 3>It's just the timing of it, right, and it's the it's.

0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Their two performances beaten by seven in two games straight.

0:27:36.560 --> 0:27:38.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's not great, and it's the players that they're

0:27:38.760 --> 0:27:42.280
<v Speaker 3>letting go, like Seffiti and Brayley are extremely popular and

0:27:42.280 --> 0:27:45.960
<v Speaker 3>well liked, right, they're guys that have a lot of

0:27:45.960 --> 0:27:48.639
<v Speaker 3>respect in the playing group, and that doesn't if they

0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:50.399
<v Speaker 3>if they were guys that are happy to see the

0:27:50.400 --> 0:27:53.840
<v Speaker 3>back of it wouldn't come to this, right. But they've

0:27:54.040 --> 0:28:00.399
<v Speaker 3>tapped popular players which also hurts, you know, but you

0:28:00.440 --> 0:28:02.120
<v Speaker 3>know they've got a leadership group.

0:28:01.880 --> 0:28:05.800
<v Speaker 2>I think, but they've got to tap of course.

0:28:05.960 --> 0:28:07.679
<v Speaker 3>Of course, it's there's never a right time to do

0:28:07.720 --> 0:28:09.960
<v Speaker 3>it because if you leave it late then it's unfair

0:28:09.960 --> 0:28:12.080
<v Speaker 3>because these guys don't get clubs or whatever the case

0:28:12.119 --> 0:28:13.880
<v Speaker 3>may be. If you do it too early, it can

0:28:13.880 --> 0:28:15.800
<v Speaker 3>blow up your season and becomes a distraction. And I

0:28:15.800 --> 0:28:17.760
<v Speaker 3>think it's on the verge of that happening at Newcastle,

0:28:17.840 --> 0:28:18.280
<v Speaker 3>no doubt.

0:28:18.640 --> 0:28:22.040
<v Speaker 2>But he's hit the ground running, Sally, haven't.

0:28:21.760 --> 0:28:26.320
<v Speaker 3>He as he does? And like, is the heat on

0:28:26.840 --> 0:28:29.160
<v Speaker 3>the coach for these decisions or they on Sally because

0:28:29.160 --> 0:28:30.800
<v Speaker 3>the coach is not making all these decisions.

0:28:31.160 --> 0:28:35.800
<v Speaker 2>Sally told me that the coach has given him, you know,

0:28:36.520 --> 0:28:39.240
<v Speaker 2>the cards to make the course.

0:28:41.200 --> 0:28:43.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well that's it's going to be. I mean, his

0:28:43.680 --> 0:28:45.040
<v Speaker 1>head on the chopping block things go.

0:28:46.120 --> 0:28:48.280
<v Speaker 3>So it's got a lot, it's got a long term deal.

0:28:48.800 --> 0:28:50.680
<v Speaker 3>He's pretty solid there at the side.

0:28:50.920 --> 0:28:53.240
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's all right to say Wayne was the magnet,

0:28:53.240 --> 0:28:57.760
<v Speaker 2>but they got knockbacks when Wayne was talking with Sally.

0:28:57.840 --> 0:28:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Did a great job up.

0:28:58.760 --> 0:29:01.880
<v Speaker 3>There, any job. But I think the paint with Newcastle

0:29:01.960 --> 0:29:06.080
<v Speaker 3>is twelve months away from being rectified because, aside from seffiti,

0:29:06.160 --> 0:29:08.760
<v Speaker 3>the guys that they're hopeful of leaving probably only have

0:29:08.800 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 3>twelve months left on their deal, so it's not a

0:29:12.360 --> 0:29:17.080
<v Speaker 3>huge wait to turn over that roster in a way,

0:29:17.360 --> 0:29:18.440
<v Speaker 3>so they're not in a bad.

0:29:18.200 --> 0:29:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Spot, all right, Big Red Corey Harsborough camera.

0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:25.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm not sure about this one. It's been one

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:27.680
<v Speaker 3>that's been He's been on the raid of a few

0:29:27.680 --> 0:29:30.800
<v Speaker 3>clubs in and out of first grade. You know. I

0:29:30.800 --> 0:29:33.960
<v Speaker 3>think the Dragons looked at him. But I think once

0:29:33.960 --> 0:29:37.960
<v Speaker 3>we see the domino forbus Stefano, who's the premiere middle

0:29:38.000 --> 0:29:41.640
<v Speaker 3>on the on the market at the moment, we might

0:29:41.680 --> 0:29:43.240
<v Speaker 3>see like one of those clubs that miss out of

0:29:43.240 --> 0:29:45.880
<v Speaker 3>Sefano might go, all right, I want Daniel Seffiti, I

0:29:45.920 --> 0:29:47.720
<v Speaker 3>want Corey hawes bro I might look at one of

0:29:47.760 --> 0:29:48.360
<v Speaker 3>those players.

0:29:48.400 --> 0:29:51.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, he hasn't had any luck at all, Cory

0:29:51.840 --> 0:29:52.480
<v Speaker 2>this year hasn't.

0:29:54.920 --> 0:29:56.840
<v Speaker 3>I think he's a good play. It's a point of difference.

0:29:57.560 --> 0:29:59.240
<v Speaker 3>So i'd be if I was a club. You know,

0:29:59.360 --> 0:30:01.000
<v Speaker 3>if you look at the titles, I don't.

0:30:00.840 --> 0:30:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Think Camber would stand in his way if he wanted

0:30:03.160 --> 0:30:03.960
<v Speaker 2>to go else.

0:30:04.160 --> 0:30:06.000
<v Speaker 3>No, I don't think so. But Emery Willer is the

0:30:06.040 --> 0:30:08.200
<v Speaker 3>other one that's sort of intimated that he might want

0:30:08.200 --> 0:30:09.960
<v Speaker 3>to move on. So I don't think they'd let both

0:30:09.960 --> 0:30:12.120
<v Speaker 3>of them go. Potentially, yeah, but you look at the

0:30:12.120 --> 0:30:14.280
<v Speaker 3>Tigers will need to replace the Finos, so they might

0:30:14.280 --> 0:30:18.320
<v Speaker 3>come into the mix for so I think once the

0:30:18.360 --> 0:30:23.440
<v Speaker 3>Sefano decision is made, they're going to have ramification because

0:30:23.440 --> 0:30:26.360
<v Speaker 3>Dolphins obviously have money, the Dogs still have a little

0:30:26.360 --> 0:30:29.000
<v Speaker 3>bit of money, the Tigers will have a lot of money,

0:30:29.760 --> 0:30:31.760
<v Speaker 3>So I think that's where we'll see the market height

0:30:31.840 --> 0:30:33.160
<v Speaker 3>up again once that decision is mate.

0:30:33.320 --> 0:30:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we can't wait to see those clubs over spend

0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:36.880
<v Speaker 1>for players and get themselves into this trouble we're going

0:30:36.880 --> 0:30:41.240
<v Speaker 1>to see in twenty four months time rugby league, Rugby

0:30:41.280 --> 0:30:44.880
<v Speaker 1>league economy. All Right, we better talk some games because, yeah,

0:30:45.000 --> 0:30:49.480
<v Speaker 1>although Friday is not the most appetizing for the general viewer,

0:30:49.840 --> 0:30:55.120
<v Speaker 1>Super Saturday Buzz, Broncos, Bulldogs, massive ramifications for the top eight.

0:30:55.920 --> 0:30:58.480
<v Speaker 2>Leave triple and get home as quick as I can.

0:30:58.600 --> 0:30:59.800
<v Speaker 3>You're going to listen to ABC.

0:31:01.240 --> 0:31:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, well I need to hear the Broncos, Bulldogs, Cowboys, Sharks.

0:31:07.600 --> 0:31:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Big game for your Sharkies.

0:31:09.200 --> 0:31:11.600
<v Speaker 2>Magnet huge game, Big game for the.

0:31:11.560 --> 0:31:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys and Rooster Seagulls huge. They were so disappointing last

0:31:16.840 --> 0:31:20.239
<v Speaker 1>week the Roosters at the Great Aaron Wally Wallace at

0:31:20.280 --> 0:31:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Fox went down to Melbourne to watch it. He said, look,

0:31:23.160 --> 0:31:26.160
<v Speaker 1>he was exceptionally disappointed. He was honestly because I thought

0:31:26.160 --> 0:31:28.720
<v Speaker 1>they looked cold, because they looked like cold and cold

0:31:28.720 --> 0:31:31.600
<v Speaker 1>and disinterested cold. Ten minutes in you could see, oh,

0:31:31.640 --> 0:31:34.640
<v Speaker 1>this is going to be one of those games and might.

0:31:34.520 --> 0:31:37.120
<v Speaker 2>Be a blessing need to wake up call. Everyone was

0:31:37.160 --> 0:31:38.760
<v Speaker 2>talking about them as potential.

0:31:39.880 --> 0:31:40.719
<v Speaker 3>That is analysis.

0:31:40.800 --> 0:31:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he said, made it sounds crazy because they look cold,

0:31:43.080 --> 0:31:46.120
<v Speaker 1>disinterested and like they didn't want to be there, and

0:31:46.320 --> 0:31:48.360
<v Speaker 1>he has a look. He agrees it was cold, but

0:31:48.360 --> 0:31:50.720
<v Speaker 1>they so much to play for and they were so flat.

0:31:51.480 --> 0:31:53.280
<v Speaker 2>You agree they might need to wake up call.

0:31:55.560 --> 0:31:56.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't know for wake up call.

0:31:57.720 --> 0:31:58.680
<v Speaker 2>The hardsworld in.

0:31:58.720 --> 0:32:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Melbourne, Well, they need to. They're backsiding you because history

0:32:02.680 --> 0:32:04.320
<v Speaker 1>shows you need to finish top four to win a

0:32:04.360 --> 0:32:07.760
<v Speaker 1>comp and if they keep if they don't get things

0:32:07.880 --> 0:32:10.480
<v Speaker 1>right mainly could jump them into that top four mainly

0:32:10.520 --> 0:32:13.760
<v Speaker 1>have a much easier run home for min Yes, this

0:32:13.840 --> 0:32:16.280
<v Speaker 1>weekend is so critical for this so.

0:32:17.920 --> 0:32:18.240
<v Speaker 3>Huge.

0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:18.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:32:18.880 --> 0:32:20.800
<v Speaker 3>We talk about how the roosters have a lot to prove.

0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:22.239
<v Speaker 3>Mainly I've got a lot to prove too. If they

0:32:22.600 --> 0:32:25.280
<v Speaker 3>mix it with the competition heavyweys. I think they can

0:32:25.360 --> 0:32:26.440
<v Speaker 3>if they fix up their defense.

0:32:26.640 --> 0:32:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Not convinced yet, you know.

0:32:28.400 --> 0:32:31.160
<v Speaker 3>I just love their attack, Like they can throw the

0:32:31.200 --> 0:32:34.200
<v Speaker 3>ball around, they can score points. You know, Tommy is

0:32:34.240 --> 0:32:36.720
<v Speaker 3>freed up. Luke Brooks lake Brooks's look sensation. The last

0:32:36.760 --> 0:32:41.240
<v Speaker 3>couple of weeks with Tommy back. But their defensive lapses

0:32:41.280 --> 0:32:41.880
<v Speaker 3>is a concern.

0:32:42.080 --> 0:32:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, mate, I don't mind their middles.

0:32:46.120 --> 0:32:50.040
<v Speaker 3>Jake Turbar, that's a good side seconds back has been

0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:50.760
<v Speaker 3>missing for a bit.

0:32:51.880 --> 0:32:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, simply can play.

0:32:56.440 --> 0:32:59.240
<v Speaker 3>I think they're a great roster from Brown. Think they're

0:32:59.240 --> 0:33:04.680
<v Speaker 3>a great roster, great Tommy and then you look.

0:33:04.520 --> 0:33:07.840
<v Speaker 2>At that match winning talent they've got, who can low

0:33:07.920 --> 0:33:15.760
<v Speaker 2>game even without Tyler, Yeah, even without young Hopper. Looking

0:33:15.800 --> 0:33:18.040
<v Speaker 2>at this, this is this will be the game of

0:33:18.080 --> 0:33:22.960
<v Speaker 2>the round and Sam Walker needs to do a lot

0:33:23.000 --> 0:33:27.520
<v Speaker 2>better than the needed last week against Jerome Hughes, much much better.

0:33:27.680 --> 0:33:31.880
<v Speaker 2>He's up against another maestro this week in Cherry Evans.

0:33:32.040 --> 0:33:34.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, agreed. I agree with all that, buzz. I think

0:33:34.160 --> 0:33:35.440
<v Speaker 3>it's a great game and I think it's a real

0:33:35.480 --> 0:33:40.040
<v Speaker 3>test for both sides Premiership credentials. And he's running with me, Mickey,

0:33:40.080 --> 0:33:40.360
<v Speaker 3>I am.

0:33:40.720 --> 0:33:43.240
<v Speaker 1>I am pressure on you two as well Saturday because

0:33:43.280 --> 0:33:45.440
<v Speaker 1>big games you can't afford to stuff up on radio

0:33:45.440 --> 0:33:45.880

<v Speaker 3>With mixed people with yes, listen, I just have to

0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:22.680
<v Speaker 3>do it.

<v Speaker 1>Nice, that's very nice.

0:34:42.120 --> 0:34:42.600
<v Speaker 2>What do you do?

0:34:43.239 --> 0:34:48.080
<v Speaker 1>My wife's making lasagna from scratch, so yeah, beef egg

0:34:48.160 --> 0:34:53.480
<v Speaker 1>plant just eg. Yeah, she does a very nice vegan

0:34:53.840 --> 0:34:56.120
<v Speaker 1>vegetarian version, but I insist on a little bit of

0:34:56.160 --> 0:34:56.560
<v Speaker 1>meat there.

0:34:56.600 --> 0:35:00.400
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I went over, what about you? My parents

0:35:00.400 --> 0:35:02.200
<v Speaker 3>come over when I do three sixty, they come over,

0:35:02.640 --> 0:35:06.160
<v Speaker 3>No lamb. So we've got some leftover Greek soup other

0:35:06.239 --> 0:35:06.960
<v Speaker 3>lamona scored.

0:35:08.200 --> 0:35:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Why would you you've done this before? Haven't brought that

0:35:10.880 --> 0:35:11.200
<v Speaker 1>for us?

0:35:11.200 --> 0:35:14.120
<v Speaker 3>They brought us leftover for me? Oh, they made it

0:35:14.200 --> 0:35:16.840
<v Speaker 3>last night because I wasn't home and to help with

0:35:16.880 --> 0:35:19.239
<v Speaker 3>the kids. And then nice they're still so.

0:35:19.360 --> 0:35:23.399
<v Speaker 2>That possibly kept the question because you're telling us it's

0:35:23.560 --> 0:35:25.800
<v Speaker 2>very boring. I don't want people.

0:35:25.880 --> 0:35:27.319
<v Speaker 3>Do you ever cook the lamb? Have you cooked the

0:35:27.360 --> 0:35:29.280
<v Speaker 3>lamb yet? Have you heard this lamb situation?

0:35:29.400 --> 0:35:30.200
<v Speaker 2>I've been too time.

0:35:30.640 --> 0:35:34.040
<v Speaker 3>There's this I made a girl more I've made There's

0:35:34.040 --> 0:35:36.600
<v Speaker 3>a Greek dish really made. It was outstanding and the

0:35:36.640 --> 0:35:40.799
<v Speaker 3>listeners have been asking for the recipe. So I've been said,

0:35:40.840 --> 0:35:42.799
<v Speaker 3>I mean I would have. I've probably made about twenty

0:35:42.840 --> 0:35:46.200
<v Speaker 3>or so copies now and only one person that's written

0:35:46.239 --> 0:35:48.120
<v Speaker 3>back that they've made it. So if you've made and

0:35:48.120 --> 0:35:50.000
<v Speaker 3>they died from the UK. So if you've made it,

0:35:50.200 --> 0:35:54.719
<v Speaker 3>let me know. Jim wants to know Jim's Isn't it

0:35:54.760 --> 0:35:57.320
<v Speaker 3>time to increase the number of day games. The fans

0:35:57.320 --> 0:35:59.799
<v Speaker 3>love it, kids can watch at a decent hour, and

0:35:59.800 --> 0:36:02.360
<v Speaker 3>it's better standard to play. Understand the broadcast aspects, but

0:36:02.440 --> 0:36:04.880
<v Speaker 3>excessive night football increases areas with slippery balls on the

0:36:04.920 --> 0:36:07.560
<v Speaker 3>fields and else. Should look into this well.

0:36:07.600 --> 0:36:11.200
<v Speaker 2>The broadcasters pay four hundred million a year two billion

0:36:11.280 --> 0:36:15.399
<v Speaker 2>over five years. They need to put product on when

0:36:15.480 --> 0:36:18.200
<v Speaker 2>people are at home watching during the day, a lot

0:36:18.200 --> 0:36:19.760
<v Speaker 2>of people are out shopping beach.

0:36:20.440 --> 0:36:23.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm not a massive thing of the Sunday six fifteen game. No,

0:36:23.640 --> 0:36:25.600
<v Speaker 1>I've been having the last couple of weeks. I'm with

0:36:25.640 --> 0:36:29.000
<v Speaker 1>you on there, but how yeah, what other slots can

0:36:29.000 --> 0:36:31.120
<v Speaker 1>they have for afternoon games? I guess is my question?

0:36:31.160 --> 0:36:33.400
<v Speaker 1>Because on Fox on satur's great. You can watch a

0:36:33.400 --> 0:36:36.120
<v Speaker 1>new SIL's Cup game into the three o'clock game. It's brilliant.

0:36:36.160 --> 0:36:38.920
<v Speaker 3>I like that. So no, it definitely needs the two

0:36:38.960 --> 0:36:40.280
<v Speaker 3>o'clock on Sunday is a mask.

0:36:40.680 --> 0:36:42.880
<v Speaker 2>Interesting thing is when we have twenty teams, how are

0:36:42.880 --> 0:36:44.040
<v Speaker 2>you going to fit ten games?

0:36:44.040 --> 0:36:47.440
<v Speaker 3>Interest Well, when we get eighteen, they will go to

0:36:48.560 --> 0:36:51.040
<v Speaker 3>I think three on Sunday, obviously two or four in

0:36:51.160 --> 0:36:53.960
<v Speaker 3>a Sunday night game. And then when they go to twenty,

0:36:54.320 --> 0:36:55.880
<v Speaker 3>hopefully they bring back Monday not forty.

0:36:56.360 --> 0:37:02.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I love you can't play Thursday through to Monday.

0:37:03.560 --> 0:37:05.600
<v Speaker 3>We're gonna have three kind of four games on a

0:37:05.600 --> 0:37:06.560
<v Speaker 3>Saturday or a Sunday.

0:37:06.600 --> 0:37:10.120
<v Speaker 2>Can you we need more than two days of Tuesday Wednesday?

0:37:10.239 --> 0:37:12.759
<v Speaker 3>But what kind of you kind of have too on Thursday? Right,

0:37:12.800 --> 0:37:14.880
<v Speaker 3>it's impossible. We already have two on Friday.

0:37:15.880 --> 0:37:19.239
<v Speaker 2>You kind have four on smarter people than you, And

0:37:20.320 --> 0:37:21.239
<v Speaker 2>next please.

0:37:21.320 --> 0:37:23.680
<v Speaker 3>Monday night forty bring it back. That was my favorite

0:37:23.760 --> 0:37:25.680
<v Speaker 3>night of the week to watch forty mate.

0:37:26.560 --> 0:37:29.120
<v Speaker 2>I want to hold this audience until the end.

0:37:29.239 --> 0:37:33.000
<v Speaker 3>So can we move Dream Team back together? Are the

0:37:33.040 --> 0:37:35.840
<v Speaker 3>Anerre still serious about purchasing the Super League?

0:37:36.560 --> 0:37:37.080
<v Speaker 2>No idea?

0:37:38.239 --> 0:37:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Why isn't it?

0:37:38.960 --> 0:37:41.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they're serious. They think they're just they've undertaken some

0:37:42.120 --> 0:37:47.480
<v Speaker 3>due diligence and scene. What's out there to be scary? Yeah,

0:37:47.520 --> 0:37:48.920
<v Speaker 3>it's not going to be worth a lot. I don't

0:37:48.920 --> 0:37:50.560
<v Speaker 3>think the super leaks it's a good time to buy.

0:37:51.320 --> 0:37:53.760
<v Speaker 3>Tom wants today. How many contracted players will we moved

0:37:53.760 --> 0:37:55.480
<v Speaker 3>on for the twenty twenty five season At.

0:37:55.440 --> 0:37:57.719
<v Speaker 1>The nights we're just discussing a little bit of that.

0:37:59.000 --> 0:38:00.680
<v Speaker 3>I'd say at least two.

0:38:01.360 --> 0:38:03.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, do you think to four?

0:38:05.680 --> 0:38:08.040
<v Speaker 3>Did Mobbsy This is from James, Did Mobbsy attend the

0:38:08.040 --> 0:38:11.040
<v Speaker 3>Bulldogs be Parry game with the forties five thousand people?

0:38:11.280 --> 0:38:11.440
<v Speaker 1>No?

0:38:14.560 --> 0:38:18.040
<v Speaker 3>Well, people have been very interested in firstly, when you

0:38:18.160 --> 0:38:19.759
<v Speaker 3>weren't here for a while, what was going on? And

0:38:19.760 --> 0:38:20.440
<v Speaker 3>then when melt.

0:38:20.280 --> 0:38:25.960
<v Speaker 2>Mobscase up and go who cares whether you're who?

0:38:28.400 --> 0:38:36.239
<v Speaker 5>Of course an audience Bloodski wants to know why, Yes,

0:38:36.600 --> 0:38:38.839
<v Speaker 5>why is the Fiji bid not a better fit than

0:38:38.880 --> 0:38:41.080
<v Speaker 5>P and G safe from the players closer ties.

0:38:41.760 --> 0:38:44.400
<v Speaker 3>Uh, and they have more NRL players than PNG.

0:38:45.320 --> 0:38:47.120
<v Speaker 1>It's all political.

0:38:48.080 --> 0:38:51.760
<v Speaker 2>Reading. Bulldog is more excited than anyone in the history

0:38:51.800 --> 0:38:52.800
<v Speaker 2>of the planet.

0:38:53.040 --> 0:38:57.160
<v Speaker 3>And j Yeah. Matthew wants to know, is any mail

0:38:57.320 --> 0:38:59.600
<v Speaker 3>when or if Lucky Craker will be back this season.

0:38:59.600 --> 0:39:02.280
<v Speaker 3>I can tell you he's playing reserve grade this week,

0:39:03.160 --> 0:39:05.359
<v Speaker 3>which is good because there were some concerns around neck

0:39:05.400 --> 0:39:08.479
<v Speaker 3>and concussion doubts whether he'd play again or over the case,

0:39:08.520 --> 0:39:11.240
<v Speaker 3>but right for him, he would be back on Sunday

0:39:11.239 --> 0:39:13.200
<v Speaker 3>and news I think at Sunday New South Wales Cup

0:39:13.760 --> 0:39:17.320
<v Speaker 3>emails from Harry is Joey mine who eligible to be

0:39:17.360 --> 0:39:18.879
<v Speaker 3>picked for the Kiwi's at the end of the year.

0:39:19.360 --> 0:39:22.680
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't think so, mate. I think it's going to rugby.

0:39:22.840 --> 0:39:26.279
<v Speaker 3>He went like it's well, his contract technically ends in

0:39:26.280 --> 0:39:28.560
<v Speaker 3>November one, so he.

0:39:28.640 --> 0:39:33.719
<v Speaker 2>Question is whether he's coming back next year and the

0:39:33.840 --> 0:39:35.600
<v Speaker 2>silence would suggest to years.

0:39:36.200 --> 0:39:38.839
<v Speaker 3>That's always been the hope from the Roosters was way

0:39:38.840 --> 0:39:41.520
<v Speaker 3>back in December. Mike wants to know. With Sam Walker

0:39:41.600 --> 0:39:44.200
<v Speaker 3>yet to re sign with the Roosters, should the Cowboys

0:39:44.239 --> 0:39:45.440
<v Speaker 3>go all in for him.

0:39:46.440 --> 0:39:49.480
<v Speaker 2>I didn't would be my long term half.

0:39:49.719 --> 0:39:53.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, the partner did, and I'd suggest would be the yeah, yeah,

0:39:53.120 --> 0:39:57.439
<v Speaker 3>absolute potentially you know Tim isn't. This is an interesting one. Okay,

0:39:57.480 --> 0:39:58.280
<v Speaker 3>we have to listen.

0:39:58.080 --> 0:40:01.919
<v Speaker 2>Here, right, I have been You've had six guys, we

0:40:01.800 --> 0:40:03.120
<v Speaker 2>were over due for us.

0:40:03.920 --> 0:40:08.040
<v Speaker 3>I listened bars because I have been dabbling in derogatory.

0:40:09.520 --> 0:40:11.680
<v Speaker 3>I have been dabbling in the idea of running my

0:40:11.800 --> 0:40:15.720
<v Speaker 3>tech business like a modern day rugby league team. Okay,

0:40:16.040 --> 0:40:18.680
<v Speaker 3>for example, my props are the sales guys doing the

0:40:18.680 --> 0:40:21.440
<v Speaker 3>hard work, whereas the fullback would be my product manager

0:40:22.040 --> 0:40:24.120
<v Speaker 3>of sorts out the defense, but chimes in on attack

0:40:24.239 --> 0:40:27.600
<v Speaker 3>to finish the play. Okay, is there something equivalent in

0:40:27.640 --> 0:40:31.280
<v Speaker 3>the journalism world. Who are the props? Who are the wingers?

0:40:31.760 --> 0:40:34.280
<v Speaker 3>What position would you be? Is buzz like Nathan Brown

0:40:34.680 --> 0:40:36.439
<v Speaker 3>a bench player who comes in far up the team

0:40:36.480 --> 0:40:39.680
<v Speaker 3>and gets in stinks. Brent Reid a playmaker like Daily

0:40:39.760 --> 0:40:44.120
<v Speaker 3>Cherry Evans, a Queensland and Enemy territory, carving it up.

0:40:44.560 --> 0:40:47.319
<v Speaker 1>Listeners, I'm letting on a little secret here. I look

0:40:47.360 --> 0:40:51.759
<v Speaker 1>down the bell. Brent Reid. I love him. He's a scatterbrain.

0:40:51.880 --> 0:40:55.560
<v Speaker 1>He's not as controlled as Daily. He's not a controlling half.

0:40:55.640 --> 0:41:01.200
<v Speaker 1>He is a Josh Reynolds. Josh, I should have said.

0:41:02.800 --> 0:41:07.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm a Glenn Lazarus. No one took it up harder,

0:41:08.400 --> 0:41:12.960
<v Speaker 2>No one carried teams like idea one all the time.

0:41:13.000 --> 0:41:14.520
<v Speaker 1>Wouldn't call your brick with eyes.

0:41:14.560 --> 0:41:19.160
<v Speaker 2>But wow, ready, I love what you say.

0:41:19.320 --> 0:41:24.600
<v Speaker 3>He's ready Tyson Gamble then read really Gambles and Gamble.

0:41:24.680 --> 0:41:26.239
<v Speaker 1>Well I was I was even gonna go step further

0:41:26.239 --> 0:41:28.280
<v Speaker 1>and say he was the Brett Kenny who was more instinct.

0:41:28.360 --> 0:41:29.600
<v Speaker 1>He plays what's in front of him.

0:41:29.600 --> 0:41:36.719
<v Speaker 3>Mere Tyson Gamble runs around, doesn't know what he's doing.

0:41:36.760 --> 0:41:40.920
<v Speaker 2>It's the Jackson Hastings of the side. Oh geez, what

0:41:40.960 --> 0:41:45.680
<v Speaker 2>do you mean, Jenny, that's a bit of a Jackson?

0:41:48.800 --> 0:41:50.360
<v Speaker 1>What do you make your know?

0:41:51.760 --> 0:41:55.399
<v Speaker 2>Just who would you good?

0:41:56.000 --> 0:41:56.359
<v Speaker 3>Better than?

0:41:57.000 --> 0:42:01.359
<v Speaker 2>Probably worth five hundred in my cap. I just spent

0:42:02.040 --> 0:42:02.920
<v Speaker 2>some George from that.

0:42:03.880 --> 0:42:04.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, there's no one.

0:42:04.640 --> 0:42:08.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't have Sloan Spook, Carle Flannager.

0:42:10.040 --> 0:42:10.279
<v Speaker 3>More.

0:42:11.239 --> 0:42:13.560
<v Speaker 1>And I'm not a Benji Marshall style coach because i

0:42:13.560 --> 0:42:16.000
<v Speaker 1>ain't get a happy hour off, the witching hour off

0:42:16.040 --> 0:42:17.240
<v Speaker 1>to look after the kids.

0:42:17.239 --> 0:42:23.520
<v Speaker 2>So he was tossing pancakes. I'm sure what his lovely

0:42:23.600 --> 0:42:27.799
<v Speaker 2>wife was doing so well, I aren't sleeping, no doubt,

0:42:27.840 --> 0:42:28.920
<v Speaker 2>like a lot of mum's out there.

0:42:29.960 --> 0:42:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Definitely, but it has been good getting the game back.

0:42:32.840 --> 0:42:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Together, terrific.

0:42:34.040 --> 0:42:36.280
