1 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: Welcome to three sixty OPI League from every angle joining 2 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: me in the great good and talents. Let's bring the 3 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: Journal Australian James Hooper and Michael carry Ons and we 4 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: have breaking news in regards to Dez Hasler and you 5 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: broke the story meet, can you talk us through? 6 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, massive news regarding des Hasler's future at the Gold 7 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 2: Coast Titans. He originally signed a three year deal. That's 8 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 2: what we all thought was a three year contract for 9 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 2: Dez to remain at the coach of the Titans until 10 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: at least the end of next season. But there's clauses 11 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,559 Speaker 2: in his deal and one of those clauses includes a 12 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 2: top eight clause. So if he doesn't make the top 13 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 2: eight this year, the Titans are under no obligation to 14 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 2: keep him at the club next year. And I think 15 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 2: we can all agree they are long odds to make 16 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 2: the top eighten. And then there's another element to it, 17 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 2: potentially that when they are mathematically no chance of playing 18 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 2: foot is footy Finals footy this year, they could split 19 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: ways immediately. So yeah, it's a fair bit to play 20 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,559 Speaker 2: out there on the Gold Coast I reckon. 21 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 3: Secondly, the second thing won't happen. I think Desi will 22 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 3: finish the year, but that's that's a clause in the 23 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: club's favors. 24 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 4: So he's got. 25 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 3: Seventeen more rounds to turn it around, and hopefully you 26 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 3: can do that. 27 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: Well, no one knew about the clause. Apparently needs ten 28 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: wins from the next seventeen. It will to probably make 29 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: the first. Yeah, will they pull the trigger on this 30 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: though the clause is there, and there's clauses in lots 31 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: of contracts these days. 32 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 4: But will they pull the trigger? Yeah? 33 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: I think it's a bit premature to say they're brave, 34 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: but they're going to have the decision to make. We 35 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: didn't think it was going to be a decision because 36 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 2: he had that contract we all assume for next season. 37 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 2: But they will get an opportunity to make that call. 38 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: Only Dei has contracts in his favor right, So this 39 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: is that a bit unusual for Desert. 40 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: It is it is, but I think it's a sign 41 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: of where Dez was at the time when the Gold 42 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 2: Coast got him. And I think it's some shrewd management 43 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: from the Gold Coast Titus, because we've seen des Hasler 44 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: end up in the court room with his past two 45 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: clubs and it hasn't ended very well, but this is 46 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: a way to safeguard them and if they's had success 47 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: and he still might play finals footy as unlikely that 48 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 2: as that is, or he gets next year if not, 49 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: or the decision the club has control, and that's not 50 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 2: something that's happened around Dez Hasle's future over the last 51 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 2: couple of clubs. 52 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 5: I liked as a coach, Mick. I think his track 53 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 5: record speaks for itself. I think he's had to deal 54 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 5: with some tough injuries in key positions this year. But 55 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 5: we've all been around long enough to know. 56 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 6: How this radio goes. And if you try and read. 57 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 5: The two leaves, it does appear as the Gold Coast 58 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 5: there are some rumblings there and they're probably gearing up 59 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 5: that they're going to make a tough decision. 60 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: Is it injuries or is it his performance as a coach. 61 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 5: I look at the injuries well, I look at the 62 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 5: injuries in key positions this year. Keanu kinn is a 63 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 5: young gun superstar. Right is one of the most lethal 64 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 5: attacking weapons. Kieran Forn has been there and done it 65 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 5: at all levels of the game. He's their number one 66 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 5: primary playmaker. Well, they've been missing both of them for 67 00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 5: the majority of. 68 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 1: They're performing nowhere near where they should. Yeah, to that point, 69 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: I understand, they've got major injuries and key positions, but 70 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: they've also got a damn good roster there that should 71 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: be doing a hell of a lot better than they are. 72 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 5: And to that point, breath, that's why I think that 73 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 5: the rumblings have been around for the last couple of 74 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 5: weeks now, and the losses mounting up and the magnitude 75 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 5: of the losses aren't helping. Now that this has been revealed, 76 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 5: that does have that clause. It does feel as though 77 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 5: that's the way it's headed. 78 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: You said a few weeks ago you did think they 79 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: would be doing better than what they are. 80 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought, you. 81 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 3: Know, signing someone like Desi has like he would have 82 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 3: an overhaul of your roster. You know, we sign another 83 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 3: front row, I think we're really lacking a half back. 84 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: But I thought we'd play that real gritty like I 85 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 3: played against Theirs. He was a gritty, no nonsense, resilient 86 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 3: type of player that you had to fight for everything. 87 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 3: And I thought that in the second year with the Titans, 88 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 3: we had a bit more optimism. Yeah, Kieren Forman hasn't played, 89 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 3: Keanu Kinney has been injured, Tino has been unsuspended. But 90 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 3: I thought that we'd be in a higher position on 91 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 3: the field. 92 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 2: And to Gordy's point, they've leaked more than any other 93 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 2: Gold Coast team, So yeah, under a full time coach, 94 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 2: no coaches considered more points for the Gold Coast Titans. 95 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: And back to your point break around, you know, he 96 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 2: had two big question marks setting into when he took over. 97 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 2: Kenny Unlock David for feeder and what's the half situation 98 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: going to be like eighteen months later? Are we any 99 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,799 Speaker 2: clear on either of those questions? 100 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 1: Just in comparison too, if you look at other teams, 101 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: and I look at a team like Seas who have 102 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: had a lot of injuries, and look, they've played really 103 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: well considering they've had those injuries. You know, like they've 104 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: got Wayne there obviously, but they've got nine out of 105 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: their top thirty that have been out. A lot of 106 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: those guys have been out from the majority of the year, 107 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: and he still has found a way for that team 108 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: to perform. You know. Yeah, they've had a tough couple 109 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 1: of weeks and they're starting to slide a little bit 110 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: off the back of a heap of injuries. But if 111 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: you try and compare it to other sides, you know 112 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: it doesn't look good for des. 113 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 5: No it's a results driven business and you knew when 114 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 5: you saw the headlines in the paper. I think it 115 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 5: was last weekend, mister twenty one percent or twenty two percent, 116 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 5: like he's winning strike rate in the duration of the 117 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 5: eight eight months that he's been there hasn't been great 118 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 5: for Desi. So I think the way that it's shaping 119 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 5: up and the way that people are talking around the game, 120 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 5: I think that the Titans are gearing up Break to 121 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 5: make a toughness. 122 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 4: It seems that way. 123 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: But is there an argument that Desi deserves more time 124 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: considering the injuries and where the club was that when 125 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: he took over. 126 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 2: It's yeah, it's a tough call because they signed a 127 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: two time premiership winning coach and they haven't improved Break. 128 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 2: That's the concern out of everything around the injuries and 129 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 2: the like. Are they any better than when he took over? 130 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 2: I don't think they are. And as I go back 131 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 2: to my point around David Forfada, this has been ongoing 132 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: right the halves spot, what are their best hards. What 133 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 2: do they do with Jaden Campbell, what I do with 134 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 2: Aj Brimson? How does that dynamic work? And we don't 135 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 2: have those solutions. So that's my concern for him is 136 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 2: they haven't made any progress since he took over. 137 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 5: We'll say, Mick, it's unusual when Des gets to a 138 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 5: club that you don't see an immediate spike. When he 139 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 5: first took over at Manly, he built them into a 140 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 5: premiership winning roster. Then he goes to the Bulldogs, he 141 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 5: revolutionizes the side, Ben Barber wins the Dalian Medal and 142 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 5: they make the Grand Final that year. Okay, that ain't winner. 143 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 5: Then they make another Grand Final a couple of years later. 144 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 5: Then he goes back to Manly and they finish up 145 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 5: in approving. 146 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 6: Very early doors. 147 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,239 Speaker 5: So I think that's why if on the Gold Coast, 148 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 5: I would be giving Des a little bit more time 149 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 5: because I do think he's got enough runs on the board. 150 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 5: But talking to people around the game over the last 151 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 5: few weeks, it does feel as though it is an issue. 152 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: As he's had a couple of messy exits. I think 153 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: that it ended up in court at both Mainly and 154 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: the Bulldogs. 155 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 4: I'm not one hundred percent. 156 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 6: That's right. 157 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: That's involved in both. So was this all about the 158 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 1: Titans protecting themselves in this club? 159 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 2: It's a smart player from the Gold Coast Titans to 160 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 2: insert this clause and have control over des Hazla's future. 161 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 2: I think it's a massive win for the managements the club. 162 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 3: Really, I think you've got a safeguard to the club. 163 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 3: Kevin Walters might have had that same clause in his 164 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 3: contract diseas just you know, because he's not coaching the Broncos, 165 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 3: he'd be gone by now. 166 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 6: Well, it's it's smart. 167 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 5: But also the Gold Coast have run into trouble with 168 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 5: clauses over the years. 169 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 6: If you look at the day for. 170 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 5: Fee to deal that ultimately Tina gotten them into a 171 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 5: bit of a scenario was similar. 172 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 6: So this is one example where they have got it right. 173 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 4: Just hook Adam as well. 174 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: The meaning to a question now is if they do 175 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: get rid of Dares, who comes in? 176 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 4: What happens? 177 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 6: Now? 178 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well that's that's well, that's the question. Because they've 179 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 2: gone for rookie coaches justin Holdbrook, Karth Brennan, They've gone 180 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: for experience coaches in Neil Henry and obviously John Cartwright 181 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 2: started there and then they've gone for a premiership winner 182 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 2: and Dez. None of them except for John Cartright, i've 183 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 2: had any success there. So what's the formula for the 184 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 2: Gold Coast Titans run backyard? 185 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 4: Then? 186 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 2: I'm just thinking there has to be the management has 187 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: to take some accountability right because a lot of them 188 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: have made those appointments, there's no doubt about it. But 189 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 2: I'll give credit by safeguarding them long term with this 190 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: decision with the clause inserted in the contract. But who 191 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 2: the best coach is? I'm not sure that they go 192 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 2: for a veteran. I don't know. It's very difficult, it's 193 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 2: very crazy. 194 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 4: Someone will step off the roundabout. 195 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 3: We're so lucky in a game that if we're in 196 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 3: any other business, you've got to go searching for a CEO. 197 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 3: You've got to go searching for a coach. In this business. 198 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 3: As soon as you sack one, there'll be a heap 199 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 3: of people put their cvs. 200 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 2: Well, the best young coaches at the moment that aren't 201 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: coaching head coaching in the NL. You've got you know, 202 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 2: Ben Hornby, Willy Peters, Matt King, Dean Young, these sort 203 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 2: of guys that have had experience in and around the game. 204 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 2: Willy Peter is obviously in the Super League doing some 205 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 2: good things over there, so that's probably where I would go. 206 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 2: Josh Hannay, you're looking at the next coaching waded and 207 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: hopefully they can unlock something that everyone before them hasn't 208 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 2: been able to do. 209 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 4: Jumping before Perth with a Kevy Wilder was a Sam Burgess. 210 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 2: You could, you could. I don't know how far down 211 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 2: the past. 212 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 4: People out there. You just it's whether they're ready to 213 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 4: pull the. 214 00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 2: Tri keV. 215 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 5: And that is the name that automatically would spring him 216 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 5: on for me because he's a Coinslander. 217 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 6: We know how much that statements. 218 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 5: So looks a bit trigger because he works here at 219 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 5: Fox League now and I love the job that he's 220 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 5: doing in commentary. But if they were to draw up 221 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 5: a hit list, I'm thinking that his name would be 222 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 5: right at the top of it. 223 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 4: Okay, very interesting. 224 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: Before the contract news broke just hours ago, des has 225 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: held a snap press conference to address the speculation around 226 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: David for THEA take a look, I. 227 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 6: Bet yourself, believe in yourself as a coach, K thank 228 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 6: you as your community A long term ah yes. 229 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, I enjoy coaching and why I'm enjoying catching. 230 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 4: I'm continued to catch. There's what's the latest? Love Dave? 231 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 4: How'd he go with a specialist? 232 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 7: Yeah? I know, I had a airpointment this morning went 233 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 7: really well, we'll go in. It's a keyhole surgeon to mine. 234 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 7: Probably three to four weeks. 235 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 4: I hopefully lean towards three weeks. How are you? 236 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 6: And you know? 237 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 4: How are they? 238 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 8: Just fine? 239 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 4: Though? Everything every time? Well, we want to get better shoes. 240 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: This was before the great Michael Carryanas broke his story 241 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: on the Dali Telegraph website, so he looked in decent 242 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: spirits and he was still comfortable with his coaching role 243 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: and happy with Dave and the situation there. 244 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 6: But I think he. 245 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: Is he being shopped around? 246 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: Well it's I don't know about who's but I've heard it, 247 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 2: but everyone denying the fact that he has been shopped around. 248 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 2: But he's a free agent come November one, so there's 249 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 2: no doubt. I'd say that, at the very least shopping 250 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: him the club of the manager, I think he'd be 251 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 2: his agent and reaching out the clubs to gauge an interest, 252 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 2: to see if there is any feelers out there. Nity. 253 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 5: It was the people at the Titans today they said 254 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 5: fake news, Cease and desist. They actually pointed out that 255 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 5: he's under contract, so you can't shop him at this 256 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 5: point in time. They might even want to legal if 257 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:07,319 Speaker 5: they find out they. 258 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 6: Are adamant that they want Dave remaining. 259 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 1: Do you believe the Gold Coast after what happened in 260 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: the last few days weeks he's been dropped. He wanted 261 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: to play left side, they said, no, play reserve grade. 262 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,599 Speaker 1: Now he's going in for ankle. But you think the 263 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: Titans want to think they want to they wouldn't be 264 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:21,839 Speaker 1: happy for him to go somewhere else. 265 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 5: Well, if they let him go somewhere else, they're going 266 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 5: to have to chip in money anyway, right, so they're 267 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 5: a little bit damned if they do. 268 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 1: Damn if they say they don't want him to go 269 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: somewhere else and he's manager shops him around, they don't 270 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: chip in as much money. 271 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 2: If it does have a game, that's the game, and 272 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 2: there's nothing stopping people from pulling out the feelers right 273 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 2: to to get a sense of is there a market 274 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: for David for feeda, because you know, twelve months ago 275 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 2: there was a massive market for David Feeder, but Obviously 276 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 2: that starts windled a lot bit. 277 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 1: No one else is going to play him a mean door. 278 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: So let's try and work out here if he does leave, 279 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: what's he on now and what would another club pay you? 280 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 1: What's it going to cost the Titans, what's going to 281 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: cost another club? The Getty services? We got any idea 282 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 1: around that? 283 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 5: Well, he's on close to not He's on nine hundred 284 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 5: plus at the moment at the Gold Coast Titans right 285 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 5: given his form and the fact that he's got a 286 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 5: game for surgery tomorrow. A rival club the Titans would 287 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 5: have to chip in at least I'd think three hundred thousand. 288 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 5: You're not going to pay more than on current market value, 289 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 5: on current form, I couldn't see anybody paying more than that. But, 290 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 5: like I said, Brath, talking to people at the Titans today, 291 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 5: they're adamant they want Dave to work for their club. 292 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 5: They've invested a hell of a lot in him. They 293 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 5: signed him on one of the richest deals in history 294 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 5: at the time, dating back a number of years. He's 295 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 5: really probably only had one breakout season for them, so 296 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 5: I think they feel like they need to put the 297 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 5: work in try and get a little bit of return 298 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 5: on investment. 299 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,959 Speaker 2: I can't argue with hops. I think that's probably where 300 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 2: the money will land. Well, if you know what coaches 301 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 2: are like, they think they can fix everyone, right, So 302 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 2: there will be a market for David Feto at that price. 303 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: And they're probably who whatever coach comes in next would 304 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: also believe they could if it des He's not there, 305 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: they could get the best out of day. 306 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 3: Well, these are ferrari right, I've watched players like this before. 307 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 3: It's up a Dave. It's not the coach. He's got 308 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 3: all the ability in the world. He's got a ticket. 309 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 2: Like what would if you had a direct conversation with David, 310 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 2: what would you say to him? 311 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 3: Weight fitness, that is that is the easiest thing. If 312 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 3: you went and picked up a player and he's an 313 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 3: old school footy player. So now they get a really 314 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 3: good athlete who can run and do all that jump, 315 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 3: lift weight, and they turned him into a footy player. 316 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 3: There's a natural footy player that they got to turn 317 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 3: into a better athlete. And what I mean by athlete 318 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 3: is getting through the minutes, playing long quality minutes and 319 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 3: time and what the team does. 320 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: Gord, he has to be said everyone in the game 321 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: wants the Gold Coast Titans to succeed, but. 322 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 4: They just can't get it right. 323 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: They've had a number of fresh starts, new beginnings and opportunities, 324 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: and they just continue to see they seem to continue 325 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: to face. 326 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 3: If I knew like they signed on the Mortal and Melmonnenger, 327 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 3: they've had you know, they've got an amazing board, they 328 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 3: got great owners. You know they had justin Horbrooks they went. 329 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 3: They've had really experienced coaches. They've had coaches that have 330 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 3: been successful at other clubs. They've tried young coaches that 331 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 3: are successful in the UK. They've got Desi, a Premiership 332 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 3: winning coach. Come where you think that what the club 333 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 3: I thought was lacking was the resilience was a Desi 334 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 3: has lost stylar coach? 335 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 4: Is it pathways and development? Maybe? 336 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: Because if you I'm just listening to you, I haven't 337 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: done any research into the Titans. But you get Desi 338 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: on board, you got a good board today. You're telling 339 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: me that the leadership is really good. 340 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 4: To make a. 341 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 3: Response, is a Gold Coast boy paying ass is a 342 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 3: Gold Coast boy. Xavier Coach is a Gold Coast boy. 343 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 3: Why aren't those guys staying and playing on the Gold Coast, 344 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 3: so the pathways is probably something that they've got to 345 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 3: work on. But I really do believe that we need 346 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 3: a better spine, and as I say a spine, I 347 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 3: reckon we need a seven. 348 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 5: The challenge for them is, Gordy that it's been eight 349 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 5: in seasons and I think they've only made the finals 350 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 5: on a couple of occasions. That's very barren in terms 351 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 5: of success. And with two new clubs coming in. We 352 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 5: know the Perth Bear going to be in in twenty 353 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 5: twenty seven and then you've got P and G coming 354 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 5: in in twenty twenty eight, the player pool and the 355 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 5: depth of talent is being heavily stretched further and further 356 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 5: all the time. 357 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 6: So look, I think everyone wants to. 358 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 5: See the Titans successful because it's been a rough road 359 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 5: for them and it would be awesome to see them 360 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 5: up there and competing with the best teams, but it's 361 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 5: a long road ahead. 362 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: Why take after all that, as Unity coach is going 363 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: to come in really invest in the Gold Coast Titans 364 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: into the community, really invest into their development and their pathways, 365 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: and I think then that will lead to further success 366 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: or longevity down the path because that seems to be 367 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: where they've dropped the ball a little bit over their 368 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: time in our game. A bit of rivals, bitter rivals 369 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: are at war over Brandon Smith's immediate switch to South. Now, 370 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: how did this escalate so fast over the last twenty 371 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: four hours? 372 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 5: Shots fired broath. This is as messy as you'll see. 373 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 5: It's hilarious. It's like rival mob bosses trying to negotiate, 374 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 5: trying to negotiate a cease fire, and the level distrust 375 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 5: is really off the axis. The roosters are adamant it 376 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 5: didn't come out of them. Souths are adamant it hasn't 377 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 5: come out of their camp either. There's claim and counterclaim. 378 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 5: When you strip it all back. 379 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 4: Whose person? 380 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 6: When you strip it all back? What it's really about 381 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 6: is money. 382 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 5: So Souths have offered the roosters about one hundred and 383 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 5: sixty thousand dollars to take Brandon Smith off their hands 384 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 5: effective immediately. The roosters are saying, no, they're not going 385 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 5: to do that. It's got to be two hundred. 386 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: This is like the roosters want two hundred. Seouts are 387 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: off from one sixty. We're talking forty green and this 388 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: petty little like kids they hate each other so much, 389 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: forty thousand dollars over a key player in our game 390 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: of the NFL, we can't get to an agreement. 391 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 6: Well, it just shows you the level of middle guys. 392 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 6: It says a lot. 393 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 5: About the level of distrust and hatred that existed between 394 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 5: these two clubs dating back to nineteen our and you're 395 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 5: talking about, you know, some of the most powerful and 396 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 5: influential figures in the game who are involved in this. 397 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 5: I feel a little bit for Brandon because it seems 398 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 5: like he might have been blindsided a little bit, certainly 399 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 5: out of the Bunnies. Today, it was being pushed that 400 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 5: Brandon had been told by the Roosters that he was 401 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 5: going to be playing reserve grade for the rest of 402 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 5: the season. 403 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 6: In New South Wales. 404 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 5: Cup Reports fiercely denied that and said, absolutely, it's not 405 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 5: the case. 406 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 4: I just want to get through them. I want to 407 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 4: get to the bottom of it. 408 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: Is it who started this? 409 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 4: Is it the. 410 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: Bunnies? 411 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 4: Who's who started this? 412 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 2: But the other thing is is that South isn't in 413 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 2: a mad rush because he can't play for another six weeks. 414 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 2: So every week that goes on, the Rusters are still 415 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 2: paying his salary. Out, so that figure that they need 416 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 2: to keep. Well, it's an interesting time with Mamoizilla's getting injured, 417 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 2: but he's out for six weeks, six to eight weeks, 418 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 2: six weeks. But it's still because you look at the 419 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 2: dummy half stocks They got Saliver he Villi playing there 420 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 2: and you know he's been a good utility off the bench, 421 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 2: but he's not going to play long minutes out of 422 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 2: dummy half. So there's a definite gap there that they 423 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 2: need to. 424 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 1: Fillus needy us need him, and the Roosters apparently don't 425 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: want him. But it's that forty thousand dollars just us 426 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:17,360 Speaker 1: won't pay. 427 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 4: How good is it? How good is it? 428 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 2: All right? 429 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: Brendan Smith addressed the shock development on the by Around 430 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: podcast earlier today. 431 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 9: Something has happened overnight and my manager rang me this 432 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 9: morning and sort of just told me everything I've read 433 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,360 Speaker 9: so far doesn't seem like I'm very wanted. Robert ranged 434 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 9: me just before, but on the way here it was 435 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 9: a good conversation, like it was nice and he's like, mate, 436 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 9: we're just trying to save some money. But he also 437 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 9: he was pretty surprised about like how it's come about today. 438 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 4: It's going to be hard to go into training. 439 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 9: And I still got to do that. We're meant to 440 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 9: have the week off. I'm playing some reserve I'm training 441 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 9: with the reserve grade side this week. So it's not 442 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 9: going to happen overnight. No one's answering their phone at 443 00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 9: the moment as well. 444 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 2: So I had the chicks last couple days, told you 445 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 2: that you can play reserve grade for the rest of 446 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 2: the year if you do come back as well. 447 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 9: I think the time I managed that, but I was 448 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 9: just guess, I didn't know if there were real words 449 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 9: or empty words. 450 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, Brandon Smith, they're looking understandably flat, you know, a 451 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 1: little bit emotional, disappointed. You could see that his menorism 452 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 1: is the way that he spoke, and are disappointed. Really 453 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: He said that Robbo was surprised. Why would Robo be surprised? 454 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't work Yeah, I can't work out why 455 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 2: Trent Robinson would be surprised, because there's no way that 456 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 2: Roosters are getting rid of Brandon Smith before June thirty 457 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 2: without Trent and Robinson getting the okay, because the rooster 458 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 2: still believe they can play finals footy this year, and 459 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 2: you know Brandon would help them with that. So yeah, 460 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 2: look you can you can see the disappointment even in 461 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 2: a sense of embarrassment, I guess a little bit for Brandon, 462 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 2: and that was tough to watch and listen to. So 463 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 2: the messages there were a little bit mixed because of 464 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 2: the emotion. I'd suggest, could they just. 465 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 4: Be that next to Boss and he just made the decision. 466 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 2: It's a big call, Gordy for you know, Trent Robinson 467 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 2: not to have like Nick Wields the power right, no 468 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 2: doubt about that. But I don't see him releasing someone 469 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 2: before June thirty without Trent Robinson's okay, like dom Young, 470 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 2: you know, Trent Robinson would have had to have been 471 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 2: across the Dom Young situation. 472 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 5: The reserve grade scenario is interesting, and Brandon's confirmed there 473 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 5: that he was told that he would be training with 474 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 5: reserve grade this week. The last time the Roosters did this, 475 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 5: I think it was Matt Lodge, and that was a 476 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 5: player that they were clearly looking to immediately push out 477 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 5: the door and they wanted him having no further involvement 478 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 5: with their NRL squad. So it feels as though there's 479 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 5: a few pieces of this puzzle still missing. 480 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 6: Braith, how it all shakes out. 481 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 5: Look, I think Brandon will be at South's well before 482 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 5: June thirty, and he obviously isn't going to play in 483 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 5: the Rooster's jersey again. 484 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 2: Just on the reserve grade side. I'm assuming the NRL 485 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 2: players have it some time off because of the bias, 486 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 2: so maybe they've just asked him to do some extra 487 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 2: training with the reserve grades side. But he'll be at 488 00:20:58,960 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 2: Souths before June thirty. 489 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: All right, now, Dom Young gone, Brandon Smith gone? 490 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 4: Are we free? 491 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: Some money up and some space to finalize DCE? 492 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,919 Speaker 5: Of course, are as much as the Roosters are pushing 493 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 5: the party line that they want to upgrade emerging players, 494 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 5: very good established players like Nafu White, Hugo Savala, the 495 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 5: next wave of talent coming through. We've all seen how 496 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 5: this unfolds previously, and clearly I think they didn't have 497 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 5: enough money to be able to sign daily straight out 498 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 5: for next year available Jared. 499 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 3: Ni Ki Manu, Joey Spali, That's that's a fair bit 500 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 3: of talent. May now, Brandon Smith, that's a lot of 501 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 3: money a winger on five hundred. 502 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 2: That's with Reese Robson's the only one that they've really 503 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 2: parachuted in there. 504 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, but don't forget they're still going to have to 505 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 5: pay money towards Dominic Young going and towards Brandon Smith going. 506 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 5: And if you look at their rostar, it's star started 507 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 5: with internationals and also state of players. It still is 508 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 5: like it's still a damn good list. So I think 509 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 5: at the moment they are clearing the decks. 510 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 4: Could there be more casualties at the roosters. 511 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think there will be. 512 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 5: I heard today that sand And Smith, who we obviously 513 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 5: saw was man a match in that standout ANZAC Day performance. 514 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 6: I've heard that his agent is also. 515 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: I said last night when we're talking about DC, I 516 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: said they probably couldn't cop or have four first grade 517 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: half half backs and I said if DC does go there, 518 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: they'll lose a half and you're here and whispers that 519 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: he's been shocked. 520 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 6: Around, well, I've heard that, yeah, his agent. 521 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 5: Other clubs have certainly been made aware of it because 522 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 5: they raised it today. And look, he's a damn good 523 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 5: emerging young player. Obviously the ANZAC Day was his breakout performance, 524 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 5: but I'd be thinking if I'm another club. But again, 525 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 5: it all just adds into the fact that all roads 526 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,439 Speaker 5: for daily Cherry Evans. So that's what the Roosters are doing. 527 00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 6: So they would make a big. 528 00:22:58,720 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 4: Pins a half. 529 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 3: Is that a good decision a thirty seven year old 530 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 3: half back next year by the time he gets to 531 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 3: the finals taking a twenty. 532 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 4: Year old like the future of the trick because three 533 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 4: good guys. 534 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 3: You've got two guys now that I think the Rusters 535 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 3: have turned the corner like that, been playing some pretty 536 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 3: good footage. 537 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I think DC. 538 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,959 Speaker 1: And Walker would be great combination and they can win 539 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: the premiership right and the russ have made that call. 540 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: Savala to me has impressed me a lot. His maturity, 541 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: he's kicking game, he's defense and he could partner Walker 542 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: as soon as DC leaves and be a really good combination. 543 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: They've got Rodwell coming through. He won SG ball ground 544 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: fin on the weekend. He got me of the match 545 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: Sat and Smith and I said it before end Zact 546 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: Day he hadn't stood up in the absence of Walker, 547 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: and then he come out and had his best performance 548 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: in the NFL. 549 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 4: By a long way in that Endzact Day game. 550 00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 1: But was that enough to secure his secure at the 551 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 1: Roosters And they probably must mustn't think so, So he'll 552 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 1: be the fall guy from this. Whether it's a good 553 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: decision or not, we'll find out in eight eight months, 554 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 1: twenty four months. Right, you've got to take risk in 555 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: this game, and they're willing to do that and get 556 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: a top line on one of the best halfbacks in 557 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: the game and over the last ten or fifteen years 558 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: to win a camp. 559 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 4: Well, just on that. 560 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 3: What about some of the best judges said that'll knock 561 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 3: back the development of Sam Walker. 562 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 4: He'll just take him back. How's that going to knock 563 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 4: his development? 564 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: Like he's got one of the best experienced halves that 565 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: he's also a Queenslander who can take him under his wing, 566 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: and he can watch DC and realize, how do you 567 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: get to this level? How do you get to Origin? 568 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: How do you win the Origin series? 569 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 4: How do you win a premiership? 570 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 6: You know that. 571 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 4: I don't buy into that. I really don't. 572 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: I think it seems like DC is a great leader 573 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: and he's I mean, he handles himself well on and 574 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: off the field. I just don't see how that's the case. 575 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 5: Alet other very good judges say breath that they think 576 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 5: DC's arrival will actually benefit the emergence not only of 577 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 5: like Sid has already established, but then the emergence of 578 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 5: players locks of all but particularly Toby Rodwell. You touched 579 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 5: on him moments ago. I think this is a big 580 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 5: part of why sand and Smith has now been mentioned 581 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,239 Speaker 5: with rival clubs is because this young blake he got 582 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 5: Man of the match in the SG Ball Grand Final. 583 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 5: There are huge raps on him. I think given time, 584 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 5: he will develop into an absolute standout NRL player and 585 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 5: DC can help him on his journey. 586 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just don't see him like what what how 587 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 4: it could he. 588 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 2: Can't Sam Walk and look at the the rugby league 589 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 2: knowledge that Sam Walker has been surrounded by Obviously he 590 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 2: grew up in a rugby league household. Kober Krong's been 591 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 2: in and around the Ruses, he played alongside Luke Key. 592 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 2: Now he gets an opportunity to potentially play with daily 593 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 2: Cherry Evans. Very few number sevens would ever have that 594 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 2: ground in. 595 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 1: DC said that he's not leaving for money or more money. 596 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: What's what's the go here with the with the roosters 597 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: and what do we think he's been offered and all 598 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: that sort of thing, because last night I think Crawle 599 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: said it was me a meal. 600 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 4: Is that the case? 601 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 5: Well, mainly on this show made that offer that. I 602 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 5: think it was seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars this season. 603 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 5: I think it's definitely going to be more than that. 604 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 4: Breath. 605 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 5: I think it will be around the million dollar mark. 606 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 5: I hadn't heard that it'll get to one point too, 607 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 5: But I'm not privy to the exact fine detail of 608 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 5: the negotiations. But definitely I think it's closer to the 609 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 5: million dollar mark than it is the other way. 610 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: Because it's for the year, you know, and they've moved 611 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: these players on. It's not going to hurt them too 612 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: much in the back pocket? 613 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 4: Is it for the one year? 614 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 1: No? 615 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 5: That's right, Yeah, it makes well, that's why it all 616 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 5: if you look at it objectively from an outside point 617 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 5: of view. As much as the roosters are trying to 618 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 5: hose it and deny it and throw off to a degree, 619 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 5: we can all see. 620 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 6: We can all see what's going on here. 621 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right now, This Saturday, two thirty pm, Live 622 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: and exclusive on Fox Lead the Raiders take on the 623 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,679 Speaker 1: Bulldogs in a sold out top of the table clash 624 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: no one saw coming. 625 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 6: How come we all hated history? 626 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 10: Lessons of school, But when history is written in a 627 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 10: game of footing, absolutely loved. 628 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 9: If you had a great jump rock, that's balmurt Inger 629 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 9: and he's Rand paging picks. 630 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 10: It's like nothing else matters, and the grand fucking was 631 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 10: up the way. I think back to nineteen ninety four, 632 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 10: to Big Male's farewell match, long before we made him 633 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 10: the thirteenth of mortals.

No one saw this coming, and 651 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 1: I mean no one, the Raiders taking on the Bulldogs, 652 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: and the only place that you can see it is 653 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: right here on Fox League exclusively on Super Saturday. 654 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 4: And when I say no one. 655 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 2: Saw this coming, I saw Buzz give me up the 656 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 2: other night. 657 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 4: Where did you tip the Raiders to come this year? 658 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 2: Last stinker? 659 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 4: It hurts. 660 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, he threw me straight under the bus. Threw me 661 00:28:58,160 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 2: straight under the bus, Buzz, don't worry that be it 662 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 2: gets as a rock. I've definitely got that one wrong, 663 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 2: and I apologize a. 664 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 6: Life for me. 665 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 5: I don't think you're the lone Ranger. A couple other 666 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 5: people certainly did as well. But if you look at 667 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 5: what the Raider has been able to do this season, 668 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 5: it's outstanding. 669 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 4: Broth. 670 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 5: Then they've got a bit of a moneyball system going 671 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,719 Speaker 5: on with their roster, where yes, Joe Tarpenhay is an 672 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 5: established superstar international, Yes Josh Papal has played Origin and 673 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 5: played in national football. But aside from that, they've gone 674 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 5: and found a lot of players who are unwanted or 675 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 5: unloved at other clubs and they've brought them to the 676 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 5: Raiders and they've built the club around those senior established 677 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 5: guys and then this emerging wave of youth coming through 678 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 5: and it's work for them. 679 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,239 Speaker 6: It's a credit to the club the way that they've done. 680 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 3: They haven't second thoughts about Bradley. Tommy Starling has been 681 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 3: absolutely outstanding against the Titans. He come up with three 682 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 3: plays early before halftime, got them back in the plan 683 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 3: and they got young Paddy. 684 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, Starling has been outstanding all season. Good going back 685 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 5: to Vegas and he was brilliant over there. They have 686 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 5: resigned Starling as well, so it's going to be a 687 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 5: balancing act for them next year. And Patty off the bench, yeah, 688 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 5: I know they've got extremely big wraps on him as well. 689 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 5: I think we'll see him really kick on in the 690 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 5: next couple of seasons. 691 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 1: All right, Press, then out for Canna Breed. Did anyone 692 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 1: think they had a chance of beating that charge at 693 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: the Judiciary? 694 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 5: You know what down there last night, Braith, when I 695 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 5: got there and I saw Cameron Sraldo, their chairman Adam Drewissi, 696 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 5: their CEO, Aaron Warburton, they went and got this hot 697 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 5: shot lawyer Paul McGirr, who we haven't seen down at 698 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 5: NRL headquarters in a judiciary case or I hadn't seen him. 699 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 4: There previous week. 700 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 5: I don't think we have, and it was actually quite 701 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 5: a quite a fascinating case. I thought he mounted a 702 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 5: very strong argument. Then he gave tena little spray on 703 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 5: the way out without naming him as such, by saying 704 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 5: players need to be careful about taking dives. But I 705 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 5: think it was worth a risk given that he was 706 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 5: looking at three weeks anyway, it was only one more 707 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 5: he got it. 708 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 1: I would have done the same. 709 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 2: You would have challenge that. Yeah, I was taking the 710 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 2: three weeks. That's carry I thought it was. I thought 711 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 2: it was a definition of lost his feet, put pressure 712 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 2: on the neck. 713 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 1: Done fair enough, all right? Could judge you right, Joe? 714 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 4: What do you you? 715 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: Playing match ups? 716 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 4: Thanks to Ozzie Broadbing for this weekend. 717 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 5: We are the West Tigers and the Melbourne Storm Breaks 718 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 5: Stefano obviously walked out on the Tigers last year ago 719 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 5: and try and win a premiership with Melbourne's up against 720 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 5: one of the informed props into roll mate. 721 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 2: I want pumped to watch my Raiders go around breath 722 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 2: Kile Weeks up against Connor Tracy, the two informed number. 723 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: Ones you never leave that down with. 724 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 6: Sticky at all. 725 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 2: Maybe Sticky he loves it.
