WEBVTT - Origin Loyalty Is Dead | Burton & Galvin: Will It Work? | Jarome Luai Must Step Up 0:00:00.280 --> 0:00:03.440 Michael, carry on here with Brent Reied and ready all 0:00:03.520 --> 0:00:04.120 right mate. 0:00:06.320 --> 0:00:08.240 I'm not a great frame of mind making. Why would 0:00:08.240 --> 0:00:09.440 you rub it in like that anyway? 0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:15.960 Were here to talk about talk about Chippy, about Lucky Galvin. 0:00:16.040 --> 0:00:17.759 We just move on the game too, and forget about 0:00:17.800 --> 0:00:18.239 game one. 0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:19.919 I don't think you want to be I don't you 0:00:19.960 --> 0:00:21.040 want to move on to game twos? 0:00:21.079 --> 0:00:23.320 Some we should talk about Locky. We haven't splaken enough about. 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:29.160 Origin Origin first, like it was a couple of takeaways, 0:00:29.240 --> 0:00:31.320 right what you got first of What were your thoughts 0:00:31.320 --> 0:00:32.040 on the actual game? 0:00:32.120 --> 0:00:34.760 Thought it was a bang average game, ordinary game. Too 0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:38.280 many penalties. I think it was what fifteen penalties? I 0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:40.159 mean that's too many in Origin game. Some of the 0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:43.880 rubbish was getting penalized. It was that stuff normally gets 0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:46.680 let let go in Origin and it was mistake. I 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:49.360 thought was it twenty one eras? So you know it 0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:53.000 was a combination of It was just very stop start, 0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:55.200 no flow, and I don't think it was. It wasn't 0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:56.160 a great Origin game. 0:00:56.120 --> 0:00:59.840 Well Joey John said it wasn't a genuine. 0:00:58.960 --> 0:00:59.880 It was like a club game. 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.000 What do you think I thought it was poor. I 0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:04.800 thought we had the best Origin that we've potentially ever seen. 0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:08.440 Game three last year and to an action physical had everything, 0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:13.080 and then this one was one of the worst Origin games. Yeah, 0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:14.040 it wasn't great. 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:14.360 But. 0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:19.560 Regardless the Blues particularly, I thought the Blues were quite 0:01:19.600 --> 0:01:22.520 physical in that first half and completely dominated the first half. 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:25.160 They asked a few opportunities. We're talking about one of 0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:27.880 the biggest wings New South Wales I've ever had in Queensland. 0:01:27.920 --> 0:01:30.920 I think they just didn't get some of those timings right. 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:34.320 But from the line New South Wales were in complete control. 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:39.360 They outmuscled Queensland and then Queensland just had a whole 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:40.560 lot of nothing. 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:42.720 Pains me to say it, Mick, but I agree with you. 0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:45.160 They just did what they had to do. New said, well, 0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:49.400 it was pretty simple. They're just stampede stampeded coins in 0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:51.440 through the middle of the field with pain hers and 0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:56.280 isao I mean anythink clearly and Mitch moses they just 0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:57.640 had to do their job. They didn't have to do 0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:00.680 an exceptional just do the job, kick the ball well, 0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:04.360 take advantage of the opportunities when they came. But both 0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:06.200 those blokes were six seven out of ten, but they 0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.760 didn't need to be eight Nines because the forward pack 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:12.680 was so dominant. They just paying hash ridiculous performance. He's 0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:16.600 opening spell well, I think he read it eighty odd meters, 0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.519 a few off floods, a few tackle breaks and Queens 0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:21.320 had no answer. It was very disappointing. 0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:23.920 It's so rare to say such a comprehensive winn. And 0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:25.639 as you said, the cars were fine. 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:28.480 Yeah, nothing special. 0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:31.440 The sin bin just before halftime more than your thoughts. 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:33.959 I had no problem with it. I think he he 0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:36.720 initially was going for the ball, realized he wasn't going 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:38.880 to get near it, and it turned into a tackle 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:41.880 in the air and it prevented Xavier coach probably scoring 0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:44.800 a trimem and Xavier catches that score was nine times 0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:47.119 out of ten, so I'm sure you'll go the other way. 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:49.280 I don't think it was a sin bin because he's 0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:51.400 getting penalties have been short for not having a risk. 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:53.919 Why can't he stand the ground and stop him scoring? 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:55.320 Because he attempted to get the ball. 0:02:57.120 --> 0:02:57.760 Just what he did. 0:02:57.880 --> 0:02:59.160 I just think that. 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:00.919 Do you think you tackle him in the air? 0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:03.320 Not really? I think it was a contest. 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:04.160 Are you fair income? 0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:05.080 I think it was a contest. 0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:05.760 Are you a giebra? 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:06.760 I think it was a contest. 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:08.720 How do you contest by grabbing him around the chest? 0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:13.799 Contest the ball because they sort of just jostled. That is, 0:03:15.120 --> 0:03:16.160 I don't think it was a syn being. 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:19.280 So you don't think you tackle him in the air. 0:03:19.400 --> 0:03:24.640 Not really, not really, that's not over Take your blue 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.320 blue or blue hat, or over your you've got on 0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:29.679 your blue single. That's not believing blue. Take whatever blue 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:31.720 you got on, and sure look at it through objective. 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:33.280 I I don't think it was a synbit. No, I 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:34.800 would have been quite comfortable for it not to have 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:37.520 been a sinnbit. Look, it didn't matter because you guys 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:38.880 about ten players and you win a one. 0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:40.960 Embarrassing comments. 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:44.440 So let's throw forward to Game two Queensland. We're picking 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:49.160 stick where Queenslanders. This is such rubbish your Queenslanders are 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:49.360 you not? 0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:52.040 Queenslanders are good and I believe we're queens But you 0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:54.720 don't pick and stick when you lose. When you're coming 0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:58.120 off a losing series and you lose, then you don't 0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:00.560 pick and stick. This is where you boke. Don't get it. 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:05.120 So we get it, We don't any of it, and 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:05.680 we've won. 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:09.240 The changes for the games you earn lowty through winning. 0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:11.960 So when you lose, picking stick goes out of the window, 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:19.440 talking about who might come in well, and then we'll 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:23.120 talk about the sort of I imagine Corey Horse has 0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:24.880 got to commemorate a bit of fire and brimstone in 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:25.599 the middle of the field. 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:26.880 How he wasn't in there in the first place? 0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:32.159 Was I imagine maybe trently Ero gets gets chopped. Maybe 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:34.120 you start by Firmer on edge, I mean, I mean 0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:37.040 muming this one over. Maybe start by Firmer on edge 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:40.440 because ruben Cot is not with an edge player. And 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:45.400 then I would stick with Daily because I think he's 0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:47.920 earned that. But I think you make it very clear. 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:50.320 If you've lost serious, he's won. 0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:51.920 A lot of serious. I think you make it very 0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:53.880 clear he's a captain. I think you make it very 0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:56.919 clear if they lose this next game, see the power 0:04:57.040 --> 0:04:59.960 starting again. So this is it. It's make or breakdown. 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:02.760 Let's rewind a little bit. I don't know how they 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:04.440 didn't have Corey Horse Brown their side to begin with. 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:06.160 And I would also have Jaden Sewer. 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:12.920 Because Ben yeah the starting. 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:16.200 Yeah, I'd probably I'm happy to start with Bow and 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:19.320 have Sewer off the bench. I think there's just that 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:22.800 bench was horrific from Queensland just offered nothing, and that 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:24.400 was always the concern. You look at that New South 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:27.119 Wales bench and there was you guys that had spark 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:29.440 and were changed potentially changed the game, and even Max 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:31.440 King came on with some leg speed and did a 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.400 really good job. Right that That Queensland bench was horrid. 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:37.320 So I saw a horse brut straight into mine. I 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:40.080 think Cobbo probably needs to be in as well with 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:43.160 a bit of spark. Valentine Holmes, I don't think you 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:44.360 should have been in there. And the other one I'd 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.840 be picking Danggaguy. I had Valentine Holmes. I've got no 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:48.440 issue with the way gag guy has been playing for 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:49.599 the Newcastle Knights. 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:51.159 But you're not though, you're picking Cobbo. 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:57.120 Yeah, well I toys keeps his spot right, so i'd 0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:00.560 pick No. I don't think so, No, Ben Hunt's not 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:02.720 back because I had that great one too. 0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:07.200 Kurt Man on the bench and potentially start the game 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:07.760 with Kurt Man. 0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:10.240 So we're talking here now, we're talking three. 0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:13.640 Four at least three. Yeah, you know, well they got 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:18.280 the school on flattered them, they got belted so and 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.040 I think Harry had a Really it's hard for Harry, right, 0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:24.480 he had one game in six weeks or something, but 0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:27.760 he's traditionally played his best norriage and I think when 0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:30.800 Ben Hunts maybe started the game or I he's coming 0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.760 after twenty minutes, So I don't mind the idea kirk 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:34.599 Man played in hooker. 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:37.039 I don't know if he's played everywhere. He's played everywhere. 0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:39.640 I haven't played a lot of hooker for the. 0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:42.279 Ruben collar with kurk Man, they start the game with 0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:46.560 them and hooker, bring Harry on after twenty the game over. 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:47.880 Queen's in one all Perth. 0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:49.320 I think you got to start with Billy. I think 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:51.520 you got to start with Eden. I like the way 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:52.760 did There was a couple of. 0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:55.600 Hooker in half so you get me to daily Yeah, 0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:56.720 I think you're putting him. 0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:59.520 After that performance. Wow, you know, I think the whole 0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:01.960 spine will riffic for Queensland. The one six seven nine, 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.960 which well I thought coming into the game, where where 0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:07.560 you thought they might have had that hope was around 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:11.000 those guys. But it aside from cam Munster, the other 0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:12.840 three players have been poor at club Land this year. 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:17.680 Calen hasn't reached any great heights. DCE, you know, has 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:21.200 that his most inconsistent year ever. Right, and then you've 0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:23.240 got Harry Grant who, as you said, hasn't played a 0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:24.280 lot of footy at the moment. 0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:25.920 He's been good though, he's. 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:27.080 Been good, but hasn't played a lot of footy over 0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:28.960 the last couple of weeks. Right, and then you've got 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:32.720 Monster who's had a good year. So I think with 0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:35.120 Queensland for the first time in a long time, club 0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:38.920 form has flowed into the Origin arena. And you know, 0:07:38.960 --> 0:07:40.880 Lindsay collins Off hasn't played a lot of forty, hasn't 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:41.840 really made a debt for the Ruses. 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:46.360 So if you decide to keep daily, I think you're 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:48.600 going to make it very clear to him daily sort 0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:52.600 your future out. Okay, you got two weeks, three weeks 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:56.080 finalize this rubbish that he's been going on with for 0:07:56.200 --> 0:07:57.840 weeks and weeks at the time, we all know he's. 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:01.040 He's not distracted by it. 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:03.679 Well he's not, as he played well since he hasn't. 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:05.400 But I don't know if it's a I don't know 0:08:05.400 --> 0:08:08.840 if it's just I don't know if it's father time 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:09.960 ready or it's. 0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:12.760 In the rubbish, just make a decision. 0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:14.679 I don't know. I don't think he's distracted. 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:15.840 He's the captain of the state. 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:18.840 I will say about this when he came on and 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:20.040 I know he's playing due half, but there was a 0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:22.000 couple of times you found himself at first or second receiver. 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:25.200 He dug deep into the line and created something that 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:28.520 wasn't there for Queensland, you know. So I just think. 0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:31.160 She's spearing Chair Evans. 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:34.120 It's not alone. There's a film getting rid of, so. 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:37.880 He won't be happy when NFL Fantasy. 0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.200 He's had a good run Queenslander. 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.240 It's a big calls. It's his biggest decision, Billy. I 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:47.280 think of all the decisions he's got to make, that's 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:49.760 the biggest call. Once he's gone, go on, you move on. 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.839 So it's a huge call for him. He's got to 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:56.240 come out this weekend, play well for Manly, play well 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.720 next week. And you know, you never know with injuries 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:00.880 either you don't declare it now because maybe he didn't 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:02.839 get injured the next four and then you got to 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:07.040 stick with Dally anyway. But it's a huge call like 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:09.800 that has done so much for the stage. So long 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:14.760 as you skip up who's your captain then, Harry, Well, you're. 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:16.880 Going to start him off the bench. So Carrigan wasn't 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.600 great last night. No, I'm not sure that's. 0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:25.400 Your problem, kp. He wasn't great either. We're have an 0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:28.880 awesome record in Perth recording per horrific. 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:33.040 Three nil Baby, here we come round thirteen Brady starts 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:36.040 with Dragons Knights, your man Caleb Ponne will see if 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:37.600 he backs up, and what sort of performing tea players. 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:42.840 But I'm really intrigued by the two most frustrating, inconsistent, 0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:45.160 hard to get to read sides for this year or 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:47.959 for Manly it's been a while Manly VI the Broncos terrible? 0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:52.000 How do they win? No tom Travoyvage, No Jake Travoyvage, 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:54.680 No Takiaho, who's been really good for him in a 0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:57.520 position that's been weak in terms of Manly as good 0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:01.640 as well. Yeah, and no Swash Still for the Broncos. 0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:05.640 You mentioned daily Cherry Evans and what he needs to 0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.160 do to keep his Queensland Jersey. What do you make 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:09.360 of this game, Brookie? 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.719 I reckon the Broncos probably get home by version of 0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:13.960 the fact you have no Tommy, no Jake and they're 0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:17.560 so short with their middles manly. But it's hard to 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.800 pick because as you said, they've been all over the shop. 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:23.160 Two sides have been hugely inconsistent. I mean Bristol when 0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:25.000 they're on, we've seen them belt the Roosters, they've belted 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:27.960 the Bulldogs and they've lost games they should win and 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:29.959 mainly have been much the same. Right two weeks ago 0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:31.920 they go to Towns will and win. Then it turn 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:35.040 out against Parramatta and they play awfully. So it's a 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:37.480 really hard game to pick. But I just think mainly 0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:40.720 got so many out at the moment that I just 0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:42.480 think Brisbane might have the wood on them. 0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:45.679 Who's been the most the more disappointing this year I 0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:46.720 think probably Brisbane. 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:49.720 Yeah, you know they've been obviously with Madge coming in, 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:54.240 I think there was this expectation that they would turn 0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:57.040 it on under Madge. Just hasn't happened. As I said, 0:10:57.040 --> 0:11:01.480 there's been weeks they've looked unbelievable so good, and there's 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:04.720 been weeks have a diabolical you know, so I think. 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:07.719 But it's a split hair between them. They've both been 0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:11.360 all over the shop. Tip well, I think Brisbane will win. 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:12.199 What do you think. 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:16.079 Brisbane too Brisbane as well, either of these sides with 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:17.920 any mainly I wrote a couple of weeks ago they 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:22.120 are the most frustrating side in the NRL, and but 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:25.000 they're closely followed by the Broncos. I think in terms of, 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:26.960 you know, these sides good and their best and what 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:29.360 where we think where I think they could both get to. 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:31.000 I think Brisbane should have been a top four side, 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:33.680 and I had mainly probably a fifth or six finish. 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:36.000 I mean, the point is the comps part from the 0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:38.320 top three so tired, isn't it. 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:40.760 They're so far off where they need to get to. 0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:41.959 Both sides I. 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:44.240 Just keep waiting for I just got this feeling at 0:11:44.240 --> 0:11:47.000 some point is just going to click for Brisbane. But 0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:49.800 just I think it every week and it doesn't happen. 0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:52.960 At some point it gets too late, right and obviously 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:56.319 all the rumblings coming out of there about players being unhappy, 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.679 and you know when you lose, that stuff becomes those 0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:02.400 noise get louder and louder, and it becomes more of 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:04.720 a distraction and then becomes even harder to turn your 0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:07.400 season around. So they're in this sort of death sparrel 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:09.440 at the moment, Brisbane need to get themselves out of it. 0:12:09.760 --> 0:12:13.720 Big news really in Sport Confidential around Dom Young's future. 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:16.600 That story is now on Code Sports and the Daily Telegraph. 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:19.559 He'll be at the Nights before June thirty. 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:21.880 This is your baby, Mick. Yeah, obviously this has been 0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:24.280 on again, off again, on again, off again. Looks like 0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:27.400 it's on again and I think it was always going 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.319 to happen because the Roofs were happy letting go in 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:32.280 Newcastle wanted him so he'd be handy signing for the Knights. 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:34.439 They looked reasonably good last week. The Nights stick Dom 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:37.200 Young in that team and he's scored a lot of 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:41.120 tries in his air in his previous life, so handy, 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:41.800 handy pickup. 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:43.880 What do you make of the Nights long term? Like 0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:46.720 the criticism around them has been their predictability with the football, 0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:49.320 their inability to score points. But if you've got a 0:12:49.320 --> 0:12:54.040 back line in twenty twenty six of Ponger, Marzu Young, 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:59.960 maybe Gag Guy Best Sharp Brown, surely there's points there. 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.240 Would say though, Mick. You look at the Queensland back 0:13:02.280 --> 0:13:05.600 line and the other Wednesday Night and Origin great looking 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:08.240 back line, but their four pack got smashed and they 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:11.160 got they got hammered. So it's all well and good 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:13.320 having a brilliant back line. If you look at that 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:15.960 forward pack that losing le O Thompson, we've seen that 0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:20.920 four pack, Heather in turn, all those guys. So unless 0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:24.400 they signed some forwards, it doesn't matter how good their 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:25.800 back line is. They're going to battle. 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:28.640 Let's stick with the positive that back line. That back 0:13:28.679 --> 0:13:33.640 line brings spark compared to what's been in the last 0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:34.160 two seasons. 0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:36.920 We've seen sharps, dynamic right and crowd something out and nothing. 0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:38.920 Dylan Brown has been a bit off a power, but 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:42.440 he's got Historically he's been a really really good part player. 0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:44.200 Caitln has been a bit off, but we know what 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.520 Caitln can do. You know you said it, Dom Young, 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:48.960 a try score, Bradmon best and an Ogian player. The 0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:51.080 back line is probably you could argue it's as good 0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:54.120 as any background on the Colm next year when Dylan 0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:58.720 Brown arrives. So there's points, but you've got forwards. Man, 0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:01.600 you know you've got to have middles. Jacob Sophia can't 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:03.840 do it on his own. We've seen that. I agree, 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:06.480 So they need to go shopping. I don't think they've 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:07.120 got any money left. 0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:08.719 They make it a little bit because they've been in 0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:10.760 the market, not at the top end, but they've been 0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:16.720 in the market for Polu. They missed fin Now that 0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:19.960 went to from the Dragon to the Bulldogs next year, 0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:22.600 so they have been in the market for a middle 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:24.640 because I had the Lea Thompson money right like that 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:27.520 they wanted to keep and they haven't replaced him, so 0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:32.120 they'd be there's just no middles out there. Speaking of signings, 0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:36.040 Locky Gavin Bulldog ends up at the Dogs next well. 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:37.200 Play spoke about this enough. 0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:40.040 Ah, you've been all over it. Chances are that he 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:44.080 makes his Candy debut against Paramatta on the King's Birthday, 0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:48.280 so there'll be fifty thousand plus for that game. Is 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:50.280 it a State of AUSTRALI I'm assuming it is. I 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:53.200 can't remember if it's there. I think it is actually 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:57.000 fifty thousand plus there, so another bumper crowd for a 0:14:57.040 --> 0:14:58.400 Bulldog's game. 0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:02.720 I think he's great signing for them. I think they 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:05.920 have said all seasons. I think their spines lacked star 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:08.480 power and he's got the potential to be an absolute 0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:11.320 superstar in this game, so you stick him in that spine. 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:12.960 I'm not sure if your start straight away. I think 0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:16.680 he'll come off the bench initially. But he's going to 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:18.640 add something to them, there's no doubt about that. And 0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:22.320 obviously playing against Paramatta, it's very fitting because Para thought 0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:24.960 they had him as late as Friday night, they thought 0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:28.400 they had a deal done with Lochlan Locklan govern his 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:31.920 camp for him to go there this year, and obviously 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:34.880 over the weekend the landscape change, he went to the Bulldog, 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:39.400 so sort of fitting he's up against Paramatta. But yeah, 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.120 I think he's great. I think he's a great signing 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:41.920 for the Dogs that. 0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:43.760 Is at a course stadium with fifty zers people that 0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:47.560 does a burden gaalvint combination work. 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:51.400 I think they'll make it work. The smart football is 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:53.680 and his cam Serrella is a really really smart coach, 0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:55.640 so they'll find a way to make it work. Your 0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:56.760 concerns over it, no. 0:15:56.760 --> 0:15:59.720 Not really, because I think people are blinded by Lucky 0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:03.640 gall and size and because he's a big body. Traditionally 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:06.920 that's not a halfback, right. But you know, we know 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:08.400 that one of the issues that the Tigers was how 0:16:08.440 --> 0:16:10.000 much he wanted his hands on the ball and how 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.080 much he wanted to take control. Well that's what a 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.600 seven does. So I don't I don't think from that 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:17.960 point of view it's gonna because Matt Burton can't run 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:19.680 the team, right, We've seen that that's not his strength. 0:16:19.720 --> 0:16:21.440 His strength is when he's running and freed up to 0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:23.760 run and kick and that sort of stuff. Right, So 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:27.320 I think Lockie can run aside. But you know, lots 0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:30.360 of pressure, lots of expectation, and never before have we 0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:35.360 seen the team coming first half back gets cut essentially 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:38.360 in poort Toby Sexton. But yeah, there's a little bit 0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:39.560 to play out here. I think it's going to be 0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:42.480 all eyes on Locky Galvin and on Monday Week. 0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:44.840 I think everyone talks about the thing with Lockey Avns's 0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:47.160 footy IQ Mick and everyone who talked to about him 0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:51.320 say he's a footy head, got great footy IQ. So 0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:53.240 I mean, if he's that smart, I'm sure he can 0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:56.160 pick up playing half back. I don't think it'll be 0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:57.800 a problem for him. It might take a bit of 0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:01.240 time though to fit into that system. But September when 0:17:01.360 --> 0:17:03.280 and they'll be in the finals. I would imagine, let's 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:05.720 they collapse, but they'll be in the finals and by 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:09.160 September September he should be hitting his straps and they're 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:10.000 going to be dangerous. 0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:13.439 What does this mean for the Tigers? Ready, they got 0:17:13.520 --> 0:17:15.479 Heath Mason playing in the harves this week. They think 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:18.600 he's going to be their their long term solution there. 0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:21.680 But what do you make of the Galvin news from 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:22.560 the Tiger's point of view? 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:24.919 Well, I mean, obviously Laso fun who's been in the 0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:27.359 wings waiting for a while now. Mick should have had some 0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:31.600 injury problems hammys and thumb injuries and they've kept him out. 0:17:31.640 --> 0:17:33.760 I think he's had another week and that's why. Obviously 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:36.240 Mason gets first crack. But he's been here mark for 0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:38.560 big things for a long time now, a bit of 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:42.320 a teenage prodigy, so he seems like he's next in line, 0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:44.560 i'd imagine. But you know, there's obviously been rooms around 0:17:44.560 --> 0:17:48.199 Adam Reynolds, and I'm sure they're out in the marketplace 0:17:48.600 --> 0:17:51.879 scouring what's out there. But farre who seems the obvious one. 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:53.880 Interesting in Nadan Dowey in the harves this week. He's 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:56.720 probably an option for him as well. But they're start 0:17:56.760 --> 0:17:59.040 with Heath and I think you know this is Jerome's 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:02.560 time now right to step up and really guide this 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:05.600 side and take on you know, he wanted to carry 0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:07.760 the burden of being the main man and he gets 0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:08.680
