WEBVTT - State of Origin Wash Up 0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:11.680 Welcome to the Daily Telegraph NROL podcast and David and I. 0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:13.000 We're a bit flat this morning. 0:00:12.760 --> 0:00:15.840 Aren't we. Oh Mickey morning read man. 0:00:16.360 --> 0:00:17.639 Hello, hello brand. 0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:22.240 Top of the morning to you. Well I did predict thirty. 0:00:24.040 --> 0:00:26.000 Yes, we've got our resident in Queensland here is he'd 0:00:26.000 --> 0:00:29.000 likes to remind us every day, but state of origin. 0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:32.200 We'll have all the wash up fallout and I look 0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:34.920 into the rest of the NRL because there's some important 0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:37.559 games this weekend, but let's start with the big issue. 0:00:37.800 --> 0:00:40.200 Joseph saw Leh Dave send off. 0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:44.360 Yeah, I think it was a send off me. And 0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:45.800 as much as it pains me. 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:52.280 To to see a game ruined after seven minutes, you 0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:56.720 can't deny the fact that Joseph Suley collected Ruth Welsh high. 0:00:56.800 --> 0:00:59.760 I thought it was I thought the terminology it was 0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:04.000 it's charged a reckless probably put it in. 0:01:03.920 --> 0:01:05.080 A careless category. 0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:09.200 But at the moment where Roos Walsh was lying on 0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:12.080 the on the ground half asleep, I thought, I thought, 0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:13.600 that's that's the end of his night. 0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:15.280 Yeah. 0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:17.679 I think it was the right call. Yeah, I think 0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:19.800 it was the right call. I thought he lost control. 0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:22.000 I mean they've spoken about that last the last year, 0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:25.000 earlier this year, and they talked about the rule change 0:01:25.000 --> 0:01:27.039 about shooting at the line and you've got to you've 0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:31.440 got a responsibility to last time, keep. 0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:33.600 Yourself under control. And I thought he lost control. 0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:36.600 But I mean he was both basically airborne and his 0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:39.720 contact in the in the head and that's that's he 0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:41.920 just went straight in. It was crazy. And I understand 0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:43.880 you're trying to make an impact. I mean, I love Joe. 0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:46.920 He's a great young kid, really really nice young kid, 0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:51.840 great footballer. But you know, I've got we do have 0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:54.760 an issue with I think this comes down. I actually 0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:58.080 think select him in the centers put almost too much 0:01:58.080 --> 0:01:58.640 pressure on him. 0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:03.080 Hang on just saying what played at center? 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:04.920 He comes in and. 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:06.760 He's played most of the year on the wing. He's 0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:07.680 played a little bit of center. 0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:11.000 You acknowledge that he's played some center, but he's played 0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:12.359 the majority of his time on the wing. 0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:14.880 And I just think I don't see the correlation. 0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:16.040 That's not that's fine. 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:17.240 I'm like to throw things out there. 0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:20.560 I'm just saying, but that's not an uncharacteristic trait of 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:22.760 a center to put pressure on a on a fullback 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:23.480 playing out the back. 0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:26.520 I agree I'm not so annoying that the way he 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:28.799 shot out and reckless and the way he lost. 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:30.239 He's doing his job as a center. 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:32.160 Played. 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:35.040 A lot of centers talk about time in well, timing, 0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:37.480 positional sense, defensive sense, and the centers. 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:39.480 I just think he was a kid amped up on 0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:42.239 the wanted to make an impact and he got He 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:43.160 got the timing wrong. 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:46.880 And that's the ramifications and the argument guys to a 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:49.800 lot of people that are disappointed. Was the center reeche 0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:53.640 Walsh is dipping and slipping him and he lowers his 0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:55.560 body heighth of which. 0:02:55.400 --> 0:03:00.359 Is then any other choice helps the situation of not help. 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:02.560 He's not that situation. 0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:06.320 He's not all like, he's not he's slipping his body, 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:07.360 he's lower. 0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:11.840 But but there was no margin eraror there with the rules. 0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:16.120 But fans out there questioning the sendoff, saying that ree 0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:17.840 has played a role in. 0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.679 This high shot as well. Do you agree with it? 0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:22.840 Do you believe that you just I can understand I 0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:24.359 don't believe I can understand it. 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.960 But but the rules are the artist is on the defender. 0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:33.280 I thought that the easy option would have been to 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:36.480 symbon him, right, and of course, but I thought actually 0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:37.120 climbed the bucket. 0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:37.720 They got it right. 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:39.680 I thought that was a sendoff every day the as 0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:42.680 soon as he saw the replayer, you saw. 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.400 Getting the job as well. I thought that was a 0:03:45.400 --> 0:03:47.800 big call, right, that's a massive call. Got it right, 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.200 And that was interesting in the agumption to make it. 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:56.040 What was interesting is set prior the kickdown field and 0:03:56.080 --> 0:04:01.400 Reese Walsh's taken out late in a kicking ocean and 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:03.720 and he's he's in the air. It's apparently every day 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:06.120 of the week. And so at that point, oh oh, 0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:09.080 here we go. We're gonna get a little bit of flexibility. 0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:09.320 And stuff of origin. 0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:13.840 Yeah, but I don't think you could have much flexibility 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:15.600 with the soali eyeshot. 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:16.960 And for people to. 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:19.159 Say, you know, that ruined the game over in the case, 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:22.560 but it's not on the OUs of the referee's but 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:24.240 it's either on the game it's not. 0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:25.600 But that's just. 0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.800 That's just what happened, right, Like, I'm not you can't 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:31.599 have any criticism towards actually client for that, but what 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:35.359 about there's been some reaction to it a couple of things, 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:38.120 whether New South Wales got their bench rotation. 0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:39.520 Wrong as a result. 0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:43.520 Well, you know, I just think that people criticizing the 0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:45.920 fact they didn't have a back on the bench, it 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:47.719 would have made it. It wouldn't have made a difference 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:50.960 because you're not coming firstly in the eighth minute, you're 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:53.679 not bringing it. You're not making an inner change, right, 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:55.600 because that's going to screw up the rest of your 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:57.520 rotation when you're already down to twelve. You need to 0:04:57.600 --> 0:04:59.000 keep those interchanges up. 0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:02.040 Your sleep rotation screwed up anyway when Jake Troby spent 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:03.000 fifty minutes. 0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:05.240 Yes, I get that right, But if you're going to 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:07.800 burn an interchange after eight minutes, right, because you've got 0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:09.440 twelve players, you're still going to be short somewhere on 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:09.799 the field. 0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:10.960 You might have had a little bit more. 0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:12.919 Speed and you might be able to have counted a 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:16.400 little bit to shift in right defensively. But I don't 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:18.360 think even if Michael mcgui had a back on the bench, 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:19.920 would he have made a change after eight minutes. 0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:23.040 But they got burned, Like really, when you look back 0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:27.200 at that game, the period that costs them, well, one 0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:33.760 of the major periods that cost it because they didn't adjust. Yeah, 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:35.960 I don't understand. They moved right now the other side and 0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:38.160 they changed things around. But maybe if you have a 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:41.920 back on the bench, maybe then maybe you get them 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:42.240 on there. 0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:43.000 Yeah. 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:44.000 I don't think he does. 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:45.600 That, and you don't maybe you don't need to rotate 0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:47.360 your forwards as much because. 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:49.560 You have to do well, you have to and you've 0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:50.480 burned an inn change. 0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:55.800 I come back to I flagged on the show last week. 0:05:56.839 --> 0:06:00.159 Michael McGuire originally wanted Connor Watson on that bench, and 0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:01.600 that was this is the reason. 0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:04.440 Why Watson defend center. He's not center. 0:06:04.520 --> 0:06:07.560 It's not ideal, it's capable, but he's not a center. 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:09.920 But then you would have had you would have really 0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:16.920 not speak, but then you would have had helped. 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:16.080 Out in the background out there. 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:18.640 Yeah, but I don't think even still if it was 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:20.239 kind of Watson, he's not on in the eighth minute, 0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:23.640 would just so Burt. 0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:24.000 Was on the bench. 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:26.039 You don't think that Chuck Burton and their flip still 0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:29.120 cring over early in that game, change sides Eventually. 0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:32.200 I don't think it happens after eight minutes, might happen 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:33.800 after fifteen minutes or twenty minutes. 0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:34.960 Rag it out down. 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.560 Eventually they would have made that adjustment. I just don't think. 0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:39.400 I just don't think we're twelve men that you can 0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:41.599 burn an in change so quickly because it's going to 0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:43.680 cost you the back. It cost them anyway, right exactly. 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:45.680 But I just don't think they would have. I just 0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:47.279 don't think happened back on the bench. It's not that 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:49.279 you can't compare it to queens there because Queensland lost 0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:51.600 the player and I would have replaced the player. New 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:53.000 South World was still stripped for numbers. 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.479 At some point, was saying to my wife this morning, 0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:58.279 I said, everything Billy touches at the moment just turns 0:06:58.279 --> 0:07:00.880 to Gulf does like everyone goes. You've got seldom Cobba 0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:04.039 on the bench, respotch, he's gone after eight minutes Club 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:04.719 Australia action. 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:06.440 He's just in this golden pit. Well. 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:09.080 I think Billy's been in a golden period for about 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:09.760 twenty years. 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.520 Sometimes one of. 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:16.480 That he does is just he's got. 0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:16.720 I just feel deflated. 0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:20.800 I feel honestly, I feel deflated for the eighty thousand 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:22.440 fans at that stadium last night. 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:24.040 It's it's such a. 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:27.840 I don't know, I feel honestly, I just feel flat 0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:30.960 that I love State of Origin and there's a lot 0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:32.520 of fans that don't. There's a lot of fans that 0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:34.200 think it just gets in the way of their club, 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:38.640 their club game. But for me, it is such the 0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:42.760 greatest advertising vehicle for the game over any other sport 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:47.760 in the country. And as soon as Souali was sent off, 0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:51.360 you could just feel the air in the state fall flat. 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:54.720 And look, I know there's a lot of debate in 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:59.960 and around introducing rules that allow in the blue circumstance 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.960 to bring a player onto the game, maybe after ten 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:06.080 or twenty minutes once coinsland have gained an advantage, but 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.720 and look, I personally don't think that's the way to go. 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.440 I still think it's worth debate, but. 0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:18.280 In this moment where it is the greatest advertising vehicle 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:19.800 the game's got, I just feel flat. 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:23.160 Honestly, we'll perk you out. 0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:24.960 There's an easy way to solve that day. 0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:28.040 Solve that problem only blokes in the head and you 0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:29.680 won't have to worry about gunder men. 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:31.080 Ah. 0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:33.040 The people that are suggested, I know you threw it 0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:36.200 out there in a column that's online today. That's not 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:40.560 even a debate. I like, that's what will happen is 0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:41.000 you get well. 0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:43.520 Michael Maguire said, it's worth looking but it's. 0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:46.800 Not, of course, just lost. 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:49.360 It's not looking at because you can get you get 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:51.560 a plot up to start in your side, get out 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:54.520 and kill someone, get off the field and then replacing 0:08:54.559 --> 0:08:55.679 with the gun who's eighteens man? 0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:56.640 Yeah done. 0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:00.000 It's just it's not under tens. 0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:02.600 Where you know you might be able to replace a player. 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:06.880 Anyone that suggested that is a dribbler. Dave's done. 0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:13.600 Dave, he's not the first, he's not there. 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:17.320 But Dame doesn't agree with it. Yeah, I'm not pushing it. 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.680 He started out there because people were suggesting the post game, right, 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:23.600 and I think anyone that suggested it is a dribbler. 0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:27.560 You I didn't suggest the point of saying no. I 0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:30.280 think it's just unrealistic. And you spot on that it 0:09:30.360 --> 0:09:33.440 probably wouldn't happen, right, but you could have in the 0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:36.440 Grand Final if they're playing against Reese Walsh again. So 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:39.880 someone just gets gets picked in the seven number and 0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:42.360 the sole role is to go out there and take 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:43.360 off Responts's head. 0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:45.760 Now, probably wouldn't happen, but. 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:49.240 Of course it would. It would happen. You don't think 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:50.719 they send someone not to do you. 0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:53.560 Think a coach would not start to play. 0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:56.640 No, no one's going to run an elbow in the 0:09:56.679 --> 0:09:59.079 head or anything like that, right, But you don't think 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:02.479 that them there would be you'd cross that line. 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:04.280 Of course you would. I'm not saying anyone's going to 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:05.880 rune and intentionally elbow someone in the head. 0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:07.640 You're not going to. 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:08.800 You're going to cross it. 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:11.480 You're going to cross it, right because you can, because 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:16.880 the reward you can just get replaced. It's just I 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:20.679 don't like that at all. All right, origin game, Well, 0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:22.000 let's touch on Queensland, right. 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:26.400 Sorry, just really quick, I know what's your show? Did 0:10:26.440 --> 0:10:28.480 you we just touch on Jakie your boy bitch in 0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:29.840 the minute because you mentioned it. 0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:33.920 Yeah, it was a long, awful, long time bailed match up. 0:10:33.920 --> 0:10:36.920 In the sheds after the game, I said, listen, what's 0:10:36.960 --> 0:10:39.240 to go with what happened there with Jake? 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:41.760 And he said, look at that period of the game back, 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:44.760 second half right, largely second half off. 0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:47.880 Now it came on for the last four minutes, didn't he? 0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:52.319 He said, we were chasing points and Jake's greatest strength 0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:55.040 is his defense, holding, holding the middle, and we needed 0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:57.200 to attack as much as we could. I had to 0:10:57.200 --> 0:11:00.920 get my best attacking players on the field and ultimately 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:01.760 that was his reason. 0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:04.080 I'm not going washes or not, I don't know. I'm 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:04.720 not going to be too. 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:05.160 Critical of it. 0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:08.400 I think because of the fact that they're down by twelve, 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:13.199 your rotation goes out the window a little bit so 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:15.480 and chasing points as well. 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:17.120 You know, was having a good. 0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:19.000 Strange should be captain. 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:19.880 I know. 0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:22.319 He doesn't play. 0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:24.560 Get you, but I don't think you think that would 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:25.199 have been the case. 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.559 I'm sure it wouldn't have been, but I'm saying you're 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:31.560 in a situation where captain doesn't play for fifty minutes 0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:33.400 in a game. I don't want to be down to 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:36.840 twelve men. You need as much as you need speed 0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:39.840 and creating points, you also need some inspiration out there 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:43.040 and a leader and sitting on the sidelines for. 0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:45.280 Fifty I mean, I don't want to be disrespectful to 0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:50.120 Jake nice as bloke in the world, right and exceptional footballer, 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:55.720 but we all know he was playing an interim captain 0:11:56.320 --> 0:12:02.080 captaincy role vise ao with the captain and there. 0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:04.360 Was much debate. There was much surprise. 0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:08.440 When Jake Trabovich was named captain and I don't you 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:11.160 know an argument was put to me this morning by 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:14.520 one of my mates that it's Paul Gallant would never 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:17.720 have spent that long on the bench as captain of 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:22.560 the Blue. It is completely different, completely different. Jake again 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:26.240 a wonderful leader, but he's not. It's not James Tedesco 0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:28.400 sitting on the bench a long term captain. 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:31.000 And I don't see it the same. 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:34.400 I really don't. I think at some point Jake was 0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:36.559 going to be on the bench as captain. 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:40.200 Yeah, yeah, I don't have a huge issue with it. 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:45.240 I did find speaking of coaches, Billy Slater coming down 0:12:45.240 --> 0:12:47.760 to the sideline, I've never seen that before. That was 0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:52.000 he left the coaches box, walked down beneath a press 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.440 box and it's about twenty o min a mark and 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:58.040 then wasn't yeah, and he goes down to personally deliver 0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:01.120 a message to Hamaso talk to him, gives him part 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:02.839 and then goes back to the box. 0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:05.280 Great sense of theater, Billy, doesn't he Yeah, we're all 0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:06.920 a bit we all found out a bit strange when 0:13:06.920 --> 0:13:07.360 he ran. 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:09.600 Past, because he ran pass front of the media, the 0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:11.600 media box. Basically it was. 0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:13.320 Like all coaches. There were two minutes left in the 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:14.880 game and the one. You know what I mean, like 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:19.400 what happens at the under fifteen. But I like it. 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:20.520 I like it. 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:21.360 I don't mind it. 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:23.800 You know, you want to get your message clear. Harmison 0:13:23.880 --> 0:13:26.360 is obviously playing fullback. Billy is the greatest fullback. Then 0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:27.800 there was an issue with the headsets. 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:38.760 Okay, breaking that's what that's what. Okay, okay, he did 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:42.079 and something was full back. 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:45.360 He was unbelievable football like. 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:50.319 It's really good when he's just coming up with twelve players. 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:53.040 He looked good coming up. There's a lot of space 0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:53.400 out there. 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:55.600 Change make a tackle? 0:13:55.760 --> 0:14:02.880 What changes the Queens they'd have to make? To give 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:05.560 me your one six seven game? 0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:05.760 Too? 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:11.800 Well, you won Stelan Edwards if he's fit, clearly your six. 0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:15.320 I would leave Louis. I thought LAUI was really quite good. 0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:17.520 Rights has going to be a seven? 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:17.840 Yeah? 0:14:18.200 --> 0:14:18.920 What was the other one? 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:20.920 That's it? We'll start. Let's start there. 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:22.000 Can we talk about the seven? 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:23.000 Can we start there? 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:23.280 Yes? 0:14:23.840 --> 0:14:24.000 Dave? 0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:25.760 Can I have your one six seven play? 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:26.280 Yeah? 0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:28.520 Look, I think I think if Dylan Edwards is ready 0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:30.640 to go, I think they've got absolutely nothing to lose 0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:33.760 in a must win game. To give Edwards his debut 0:14:33.800 --> 0:14:38.520 and let's see how he goes. Jerome Lewy was okay, 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:42.160 he wasn't. He plays a lot of freestyle footy that 0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:45.880 I think sometimes I can confuse his teammates. 0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:50.880 I think he does enough to stay there. I think Nicko. 0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:54.720 Hines, well, it's going to come down to Mitch's performances now. 0:14:55.560 --> 0:15:00.680 And for Nico, I thought his effort and and his 0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:03.520 want and desire to go after the game was all there, right, 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:08.000 So any question about him folding under pressure I don't 0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:08.480 agree with. 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:13.640 However, execution was let him down. His execution kicking game. 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.560 The kicking game was or wasn't there? 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:19.880 And what do we know about Mitch Mitchell Moses kicking games. 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:22.080 I think Mitch's gets through the next two weeks. 0:15:22.080 --> 0:15:24.440 Mitch's in and barn a shock. I've got this little 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:28.200 feeling that madeal I don't know, I've just got this 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:28.840 feeling magical. 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:31.040 Go hang on. We did a job with twelve man. 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:32.120 I might stick with these. 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:34.640 Boys, I think, I think though generally yes, but I 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:36.640 think if you asked him who. 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:38.360 He wanted to be full back, it was Dylan Edwards. 0:15:38.400 --> 0:15:40.280 I think once Nathan clearly was gone, if you asked him, 0:15:40.280 --> 0:15:41.920 who would have been his next choice half. 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:47.200 Would Mitch would have played six and clear? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I. 0:15:47.160 --> 0:15:47.720 Think Mitch was. 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:48.480 I don't know. 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:51.280 It's not like he's culling. I don't think there's going 0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:54.120 to be whole Moses. I don't think I think that 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:56.680 goes cooked. I don't think. I don't think you can 0:15:56.720 --> 0:15:59.760 plain after that performance last night. I thought Jerome was decent, 0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:04.280 was released half the threat I thought new kicking game 0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:10.000 was was kicking so often, which obviously would have been attacked. 0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:12.600 And I found strange when you know, jack lo match 0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:14.120 was really good last night, but I'm not sure why 0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:14.320 he was. 0:16:14.280 --> 0:16:17.280 Kicking treating of season. 0:16:17.560 --> 0:16:20.440 How if Nicko does get the chop, how he responds, 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:22.280 because last year we struggled after. 0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:23.720 And this is off the back of a poor performance. 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:27.120 I've already spoken to Sharks officials who have spoken to Nico. 0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:30.560 This morning, and Nico's up like he's he gets he 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:34.040 gets the sure like the half back of the Blues 0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:39.720 Cops criticism right, but again like he defensively went after 0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:41.720 the game, never stepped coming at the game. 0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:44.200 Just his execution let him down. 0:16:44.520 --> 0:16:46.400 He clearly had a sense of what was coming. Was 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:48.000 It is one of the few players that didn't come 0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:49.160 out of the dressing room last night. 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:50.400 Blues were pretty good. 0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:54.760 Nick I was well aware that he obviously had a 0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:57.320 disappointing game and he was going to be underscreened. 0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:58.440 And one of the other ones that did it was 0:16:58.520 --> 0:16:59.880 Joseph saw Lee who spoke. 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:01.840 This more him too, so he was out and just 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:02.440 didn't nic. 0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:06.639 I saw cam mckinness. I did see cam Kin either, but. 0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.159 I think I don't know. I think obviously they go 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:10.919 to Melbourne and they need to win. I think you've 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:11.760 got to pick mental man. 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:15.800 I think like the fullback position was intriguing, right, but 0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:19.800 Tedesco was okay. But if if Dylan Edwards is fit, 0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:22.720 I don't think did enough to stop him from getting 0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:23.120 that number. 0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:25.000 One's a couple of about the back players there that 0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:26.080 Teddy was trying to tip. 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:28.280 On on the right hand. 0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:32.439 So if Dylan Edwards is fit, he comes, and if 0:17:32.440 --> 0:17:35.040 he's not fit, I think remains there. 0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:38.920 But you don't think so drink water. I think drink 0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:40.200 was the other question. 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:42.680 The other question is if they go for a bit 0:17:42.720 --> 0:17:47.040 more starch in the middle with a Mitch Barnett and 0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:51.080 that's you know, I don't I like huts and young 0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:53.320
