I felt bad 37 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 5: when I was injured hanging around players, right, I actually 38 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 5: did when I broke my neck in two thousand and 39 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 5: one and Elf come back in the third game. I 40 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 5: actually felt embarrassed to be around the guys that was 41 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 5: took That wasn't about Tedesco. That was about if I 42 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 5: got called back in the camp with being overlooked and 43 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,919 Speaker 5: the captaincy taken off me, I would have a funny, 44 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 5: guilty embarrassing. 45 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 3: Sure Teddy has handled this whole thing enormous class texting. 46 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 3: Dylan Edwarods originally wishing him the best would have been 47 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 3: shattered losing the cap. And see, but guarantee you when. 48 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 5: I'm just telling you right now, he's going to feel 49 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 5: like he did when it's his first jersey to get 50 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,399 Speaker 5: in this jersey back and then that's what I'm trying 51 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 5: to get her. 52 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: He said that he'd be embarrassed. I was not sure exactly. 53 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: Now it makes sense to me, right and I understand 54 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: what Gord he's saying. God, he's spot on. He and 55 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,399 Speaker 1: this has just been honest. You wouldn't feel the same 56 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,239 Speaker 1: if you get called back in after being dropped you 57 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: were the second option. And listen, I've got no doubt 58 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,679 Speaker 1: Teddy's going to have a great game and he and 59 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: he you know, he just missed out. We all know that, 60 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: and he is blue through and through. 61 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 5: But there would be a not I. 62 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 1: Wouldn't even know if it's embarrassment, but you know, it'd 63 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: be a little bit of a bit of a pill 64 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: to swallow in your head. 65 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 3: Disagree with you, two guys. More, who wants to play now? 66 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 3: Game two? He wants to play Game three. He wants 67 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 3: to remain in the Australian Cap for the end of 68 00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 3: the year, and he wants to steer the roosters in. 69 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 5: We all do. 70 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 2: We'll take them. Well, you were sort of suggest we 71 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: both played origins. We've both been drunk. 72 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:08,239 Speaker 6: I know the feeling. 73 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,679 Speaker 2: Okay, I won't have an opinion, but been rejected. 74 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 5: Have you ever been rejected? 75 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 6: Many many times I make it for the night club 76 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 6: or I felt ordinary. 77 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 5: That's the point. 78 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 2: But that's always that's all. There's always someone's questioning. 79 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 6: Whether you said he'd be embarrassing. 80 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:26,679 Speaker 2: He might be. 81 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 5: I said I would be embarrassed. 82 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 4: I don't think it's any doubt he'd feel a little 83 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 4: bit awkward when he first got into camp. But once 84 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 4: he's in camp, he knows all those guys, played a 85 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 4: lot of football with them. They always think, but he 86 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 4: knows those guys. But I think he's settled quickly and destroyed. 87 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 4: But I'm sure initially there was maybe a little bit 88 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 4: of discomfort there with Ja. I mean, JA said no. 89 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 6: He could have said no, I'm going to retire, you can. 90 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 4: He could have want some time for Austria at the 91 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 4: end of the year. 92 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 6: That's what I'm talking about. He'll be he'll be fine. 93 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 2: He was never going to say no. 94 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 6: He could have. 95 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: He would never be really. 96 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 7: Upset at in the first said no, they could have 97 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 7: moved right in for but I don't know what they 98 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 7: would have done that would have been interesting. Yeah, but 99 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 7: you're happy now because I wasn't sure you wanted Edward. 100 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 3: No, I can't work you too out saying you might 101 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 3: feel awkward and it might affect you. 102 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 5: Know, that's how we feel. So you're telling me that 103 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 5: I wouldn't feel that way. 104 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 6: No, I have not played on like you too. 105 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 5: Just rejection in general. Buzz. 106 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 2: Okay, let's move on from or not move on from it. 107 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: If he plays great, he brains at New South Wales win, 108 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: does he stay in. 109 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 2: The team or do they go back to Edwards? 110 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 4: Well, that's that's the difficulty at all, is the breath 111 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 4: Because if he does come out and Brandon, I think 112 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 4: they're too far down the path. I don't think well, 113 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 4: I don't think Dylan Edwards will be fifth. He won't 114 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 4: play before game two, So if that's the case, I'm 115 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 4: not sure he could pick doll On Edwards in game two. 116 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 4: There's every chance he won't be back before then, so 117 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 4: I don't know you pick him. But if Teddy comes 118 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 4: out brains it wins me on the match. They win 119 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 4: the game, but all. 120 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 5: Signs of leading to that because Dylan's stating camp, He's 121 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 5: keeps on learning the plays, he's getting familiar with what's 122 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 5: happening in the organization. 123 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 4: I think it's a really difficult issue for them. 124 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 2: But I think you've gone. 125 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 4: Down the path with Dylan. I think Dylan's fit and 126 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 4: he gets a game in before Origin too and plays well, 127 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 4: I think. 128 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 2: You've got to go back to it. 129 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: What if they scrape it in Teddy plays solid and 130 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: they just get a win. 131 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 2: Yourself, well, then you change, you change it. I think 132 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 2: change a winning team. 133 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 6: Yes, buzz And it's too hypothetical. 134 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 2: It really is has a hypothetical. 135 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 6: Because we don't know what it's. 136 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 2: See one on two things. 137 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 1: I'm asking it's either he brains it and they win, 138 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: because if they lose, they'll go back edwards. Right, I'm 139 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: asking if he brains it, he kills it and I 140 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: was win. That's one side. Or he just plays average 141 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: and they win. 142 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: What do they do? It's only two options. 143 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, Well let's worry about that Thursday morning. 144 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: Best. All of a sudden, All of a suddenly, we're 145 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 2: just going to wait for the result. Okay, I'll give you. 146 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 2: I'll answer it hypothetically. If we win, that's keep the 147 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 2: same side. 148 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 6: Hallelujah. 149 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 2: We got there eventually. Yes, I agree with you, Buzzy, 150 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: I want the same. I would keep the same. 151 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 4: I think you've made a decision to change, and I 152 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 4: think you just press on. If you think Dylan Edwards 153 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 4: is a better footballer, which clearly Madge does, then you 154 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 4: make the change. You've got to have your best team 155 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 4: and Dylan's in his best team according to Match. 156 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 2: There's a tricky one from Madge. 157 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: It's been a hard lead up to this first game 158 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: with a few injuries for New South Wales. There was 159 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: plenty of simpy for Dillan Edwards in Blues camp today, 160 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: but they're backing Teddy to get the job done. 161 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 6: It's all done now sort of had had to move on. 162 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 8: He's still around the camp too, which I think is 163 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 8: credit to imagine the credit to dill as a person. 164 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 8: Probably would have been easy to go and just hide 165 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 8: away home there for a couple of days, but still 166 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 8: front up, still doing his job for the team. Too 167 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 8: often you get someone not ted I think it's what 168 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 8: he played in his twenty third game on the bounds 169 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 8: now as captain of the States, you can feel that 170 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 8: experience there so certainly gives the players confidence to know 171 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,479 Speaker 8: and that something so happened late in the camp that yeah, 172 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 8: I think we can move on and still perform at 173 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 8: our best. 174 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: All right, we've covered New South Wales. Let's move on 175 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: to Queensland. 176 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 5: Now. 177 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: There is talk out of Queensland camp or definitely from 178 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: some of their greates, that they will target Nico Hines. 179 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 2: Have we heard anything about this or what are our thoughts, Gordy? 180 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 5: I think everybody gets targeted, targeted in State of Origins. 181 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 5: There's no doubt Nico with the twelve minute. He come 182 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 5: under a lot of pressure right after last year and 183 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 5: he's a fresh face. Let's just say that he's making 184 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 5: his debut, he's starting. There's no doubt everybody will get 185 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 5: pressure put on him. 186 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 2: But everyone gets targeted, everyone gets started, everybody. 187 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: But when you're you've had the one appearance like Nico's, 188 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of talk about it. He is 189 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: a key playmaker and a key position. You don't think 190 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: there's a little bit more emphasis on focus on him? 191 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 5: Well, the rumor last year was defensively, he doesn't move 192 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 5: laterally so yeah, there's no doubt if Respols gets on him. 193 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 5: You saw what respolse did depend within the Grand Final, 194 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 5: so there's no doubt they're going to run plays at him. 195 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 5: There's no doubt they're going to run traffic. I think 196 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 5: missed thirty tackles. 197 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 6: I think has been outstanding this year. 198 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 5: N He's got to do it again on Wednesday, and 199 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 5: you're going to take that. 200 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 6: First game against the Warriors. 201 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 3: You saved a couple of tries close to the line, 202 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 3: they come from behind to win. I'm not the slightest 203 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 3: bit concerned about his And there's no great playmaker who 204 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 3: does not get targeted. 205 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 5: They all do. 206 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 4: They don't go at him early and often you'd be 207 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 4: shot mad. They've got to get They've got to go 208 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 4: after him and test him, test not just his physical 209 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 4: strength but his mental strength, because you know, we obviously 210 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 4: spoke to Nico last week and he was saying there 211 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 4: were no demons after the game last year, and you 212 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 4: know they all they moved form suggested that there was, yes, 213 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 4: and you've got to put lots of pressure on him 214 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 4: as much as you possibly can. 215 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: Absolutely, actually Client has got the gig for Origin one 216 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: over Adam g now Adam g refereed the Grand Final 217 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: in a performance by Adam that was one for the ages. 218 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: I thought it was one of the best referee games 219 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: I've ever watched, and he hasn't got the job. 220 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 3: So what's happening here? I cannot believe this decision. I 221 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 3: spoke to Graham Ansley last night and I saw it. 222 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 3: I said, what are you doing? Why is Adam g, 223 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 3: who had the best Grand Final I've ever seen from 224 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 3: any referee, kept the penalty's minimum, great game of Fordy. 225 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 6: We all wrapped him. What's he done wrong? 226 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 5: I can't remember you got who did the origin last year? 227 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 3: Client would have done it. Yeah, well, but you know what, 228 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 3: he's not even stand by referee. They've got Jerry Sutton there. 229 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 6: I think it's crazy. 230 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 2: The reason then he spoke, he spoke. What was the reason? 231 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 2: He said? 232 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 6: It was really really tight. 233 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 3: There's two or three who are basically the same. We've 234 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 3: looked at stance, We've looked at everything. 235 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 4: I said, what he did in the Grand Final shouldn't matter. 236 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 5: It is because that's a big game. That's the biggest 237 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 5: game of. 238 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 4: The six months ago. 239 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 5: That was the last question. 240 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 4: So what you actually Client's referee big games, just saying 241 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 4: it's refereed origin. I'm sure is Is he re three 242 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 4: Grand finals? I'm sure he has, Like he's referee. 243 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter if you referee the Grand Final six month 244 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: game of the year and had one of the best performance. 245 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,599 Speaker 6: Do you get sack? Who did did he do the 246 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 6: big World Cup games to? 247 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 3: They weren't World Cup games but Transitatsman games Australian New 248 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 3: Zealand And it. 249 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 2: Doesn't matter again, I'll be confused. 250 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 4: It was six months ago, Brak, So what referee big 251 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 4: games as well? 252 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 5: The last week? 253 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 4: How do you want to go back? 254 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 5: That was the last week he was the number one 255 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 5: referee has around the premiership? 256 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 6: Las Vegas. 257 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 3: He made a major mistake in Vegas, major mistake has 258 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 3: made this year. 259 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 4: Haven't sat there and listed every referee mistate this year. 260 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 5: I don't care about. 261 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 4: Reference much hasn't out to you? Then I know there's 262 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 4: been some one this year. I don't know who's made them. 263 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 4: I don't sit there and documentary every referee. 264 00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 2: You don't need to do to been poor this year, Right, 265 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 2: I don't know what. 266 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 4: It doesn't matter, but I'm saying what he did six 267 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,599 Speaker 4: months ago, doesn't it doesn't matter because that was the 268 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 4: Grand Fall because she Clon's referred Origin down back to 269 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 4: the biggest Clonfer was was that's how we did big games. 270 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 4: Never did well in the last peak. 271 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 5: That's what Bill Harrigan got the State of Origin. That's 272 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 5: why he's got the Grand Final. But that said, he 273 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 5: was the best big game referee because he was the 274 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 5: best referee, not that he was that Europe. 275 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 2: He was also the best big game. 276 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 5: Well I got sent off saying that Stephen Clarke was 277 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 5: better than him more than a little bit more. But 278 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 5: that was the thing that got under his the most. 279 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 4: You can't give him like a job because he did 280 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 4: well six months ago. 281 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: We can't, No, you can't's agreed to selected. 282 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: It's agreed Big game Origin players and the Origin players 283 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: referee refereed Origin and the good John. 284 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 2: When we started talking about a player, yes. 285 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: Okay, let's actually not a player yet. The hype around 286 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,719 Speaker 1: Origin are we feeling is a core stadium sold out? 287 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 2: We think and everyone's brought into this game. One in 288 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 2: New South Wales. 289 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 3: I just got a text from the NRL. They're eighty 290 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 3: thousand plus. They're pretty close to sellout. They're competing against 291 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 3: the Matilda's this week. He played a night and sold 292 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 3: the stadium out. So it's pretty big performance for game one. 293 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: Cost of living crisis. Now, the average rugby league punter 294 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 3: says for weeks and weeks and weeks for ticket to 295 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 3: this game, and I think it's a big effort to 296 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 3: sell out. 297 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 6: Before I got that news, I just felt the game 298 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 6: like a little bit of hype rounds isn't. 299 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 5: It's because New South Wales are up in the Blue Mountains. 300 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 6: I think. 301 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 2: Maybe they had not, they haven't been visible. Let's be honest. 302 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: You go to Queensland Orange week, everybody's different, a different beast. 303 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 4: I've so you've got a couple of coaches who don't 304 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 4: like players really sticking it to each other as well, 305 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 4: which I reckon doesn't help with the hype. 306 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 2: That's true. So you think they've been a little bit tame. 307 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 4: With the med I think it has been well. Gordy's 308 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 4: had the. 309 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 6: Fly everyone he has. 310 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what will be interesting the television ratings 311 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 3: on Thursday morning, because ratings. 312 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 6: Have been in declinent for this game for some time. 313 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 2: It'll be very very interesting. 314 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 3: But they've done well, and you know what, the MC 315 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 3: jur You sold sixty five thousand seats already, You. 316 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 2: Had any call on this morning. 317 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: You're worried about the scheduling, you're worried about injured stars. 318 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 2: At the moment, what are you worried about? What's the answer? 319 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 6: What am I worried about? 320 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 3: I think we're short changing the fans with the viewers, 321 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,599 Speaker 3: the people who pay their money at the gate. We 322 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 3: dragged the thirty six Origin players out of the competition. 323 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 3: They don't eat side, and we've also got one hundred players. 324 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 3: We've got seventy odd players out injured this cleary.

Yeah, 554 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 5: it's it's not Wayne Bennett like, They're not going to 555 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 5: jump out of the box and he can pick his club. 556 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 5: So I think if Anthony Seabolt didn't get it, I 557 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 5: don't think Mainly has to be that desperate at the 558 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 5: moment to sign a coach eighteen months out. 559 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 3: I think Seves was very disappointed that nothing happened. I'm 560 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 3: told you know he walked out of the meeting not happy. 561 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 3: But I totally understand Manly wanted to put that hopeful 562 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 3: a little while reading. 563 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 5: Do you agree reading? 564 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:57,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I saw him going a man that on Wednesday 565 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 4: look pretty happy, actually. 566 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 2: Happy. 567 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I don't think.
