1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: And Penrith Panthers thirty, the Sydney Roosters ten here at 2 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: Blue Bet Stadium, and now here's the Penrith coach. 3 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 2: How are you going, guys? 4 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 3: Mate? Nathan put on another show. 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought he was. 6 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: I thought he was okay tonight one of one of 7 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,759 Speaker 1: his one of his better performances, I think. But you know, 8 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: I think I think definitely he's building into his game 9 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,319 Speaker 1: and I think he's still carrying an injury, so I 10 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 1: think I think we'll see well, I think we'll see 11 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: him gradually get better as he gets on. 12 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, Ivan, it's Phil Rothfield here. What did you say 13 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 4: to them before the game too, because jeez, I tell 14 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:39,239 Speaker 4: they're coming out flying, didn't they? 15 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, buzz I just I basically just said to him, 16 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: you know, get out there and do your role in 17 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: this team. Yeah right, Yeah, I said, get out there 18 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: and do your role. And you know, I think I 19 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: think they did. I think they did that. 20 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 5: Yeah right. 21 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 3: A coach who stood out for you tonight, you know, 22 00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 3: besides the obvious. 23 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: I mean obviously Nathan, but I think a huge one 24 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 1: for us tonight was Brian Toto. Actually, he does a 25 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 1: lot of work out of the backfield for us, and 26 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: I think I think that work he did early definitely 27 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: preserved our forwards for the. 28 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 2: Back end of the game. 29 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: And you know, we saw we saw a lot of 30 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: tries in that first half, which I think definitely won 31 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: us the game. But I think Brian was instrumental for that. 32 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 4: I haven't You've earned a week off now, which, as 33 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 4: you know, is invaluable.

I mean I probably need 75 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 5: a drink or two or three. 76 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: Hey, just as Bulldog Richie from the Rugby League Week, 77 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: I was just asking the team got off to a 78 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: slow start. 79 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 2: What did you put that down to? 80 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 4: H Well, look, when you're in the finals games, one 81 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 4: of the most important things is you've got to be 82 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 4: up emotionally. 83 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 5: That that's critical. When you're up. 84 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 4: Emotionally, that that's what brings out your physicality and your 85 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 4: aggression in defense. For whatever reason, they just outmastered us. 86 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 4: Said we lack desperation. If you look at that first 87 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 4: set of six, like Nathan gets the ball in that 88 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 4: last tackle. Our first set of six firstly was so defensively, 89 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 4: so passive, but last tackle, one bloke we took spoke, 90 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 4: but all week was pressure Nathan Cleary, he gets the 91 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 4: one in the last tackle. No one is nearing like 92 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,799 Speaker 4: we're back pedaling, And I think that was just probably 93 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 4: emblematic of our performance. 94 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 3: Coach thoughts on Pedrith tonight. They were pretty strong, especially 95 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 3: from the get go. 96 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 5: Well, there's a reason they are going for four in 97 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 5: a row, isn't you know? 98 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 4: Look they were they were terrific their powerhouses, I mean Fisher, 99 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 4: Harris and Leota. From the first carry, they're coming off 100 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 4: the back fence. Isaiah tonight, he did far less passing. 101 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 4: He just ran the football. Dylan Edwards his usual bringing itself. 102 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 4: And Nathan Cleary is a genius. It's always about it. 103 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 4: He's a Yeah, they were. 104 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: Ten out of ten coach, how do you think your 105 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: halves went tonight? 106 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 3: Look? 107 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 4: Look, the bottom line is is that your halves can't 108 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 4: do anything if your fours aren't rolling forward and giving 109 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 4: them time and space and building some momentum. But I 110 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 4: will say this, young sand and Smith, he will get 111 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 4: so much out of that that that for him, that 112 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 4: that is priceless experience because you come here his first 113 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 4: finals game, you're playing the premiers Penrith. In Penrith doesn't 114 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 4: get any harder. And I thought, and I thought Sandon, 115 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 4: I thought he did. He looked at everything they possibly could. 116 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 4: But you know, the problem didn't lie there. The problem, 117 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 4: in my opinion, the problem laying the forwards. 118 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 3: A coach the forward pass. What's your thoughts? 119 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 5: What's your thoughts? 120 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 3: You're you're the coach mate, Well. 121 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 5: You obviously you know you know, you know it all. 122 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 4: I've been some of the stuff you've been right in 123 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 4: a teammate, there's a I'll just give you a little 124 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 4: bit of warning, brother, there's a there's an imbecile writing 125 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 4: articles and putting your name to it. 126 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 3: The fans want to know. 127 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 4: Okay, look, it wasn't for it. It was on our 128 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 4: way to be to be a try. But at the 129 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 4: bottom I did. That didn't cost him, That didn't cost 130 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 4: us all. All our problems were self inflicted. 131 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: Words your decision to keep Spencer Lee and you off 132 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: the field for a little bit, and by the time 133 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: he had come on it was already twenty two nil. 134 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 2: What was your what was your reasoning there? 135 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 5: Oh mate, I don't know. I just I forgot about him. 136 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 4: Forget Look we earned him with a plan. Spencer's come 137 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 4: off the bench plenty of times, you know. In hindsight, okay, 138 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 4: you know, if I have the time again, there's no 139 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 4: doubt about it. We needed to match him emotionally. He's 140 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 4: probably emotional trigger. He should you know, in hindsight, he 141 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 4: should have started. That's that's the bottom line. We needed 142 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 4: someone out there to match Lioda and Fisher Harris. None 143 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 4: of our blakes did. And look, I'll fallen the sort 144 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 4: it was. 145 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 5: It was. It was the wrong decision. 146 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 4: When I finally got him on there it was twenty 147 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 4: two nil, and I don't think he'd be happy about it. 148 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 4: Who was your best to night, coach, our best, our best, 149 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 4: our best player tonight? 150 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 3: Then? 151 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 2: Uh uh. 152 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 5: No, not him.

You know, I thought they 160 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: were okay. The tribal before halftime probably wasn't. Probably wasn't 161 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: something I was too satisfied with, if I'm being completely honest, 162 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: and you know, yeah, you know. 163 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 4: Right saw you're smiling up in the coach just box 164 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 4: at one point, belly ache letting your guard down a 165 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 4: little bit. 166 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: No, actually I saw a I saw a kid in 167 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: the stands get hit with a ball and he's found 168 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: two fell out, So I thought that was kind of funny. 169 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: I yeah, I didn't think I wasn't.

You know, Harry is 176 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: definitely a lot quicker. He's a lot better of a 177 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: runner than Cameron was listen more weight than Cameron. But 178 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: Cameron is one of those players that he really dominated 179 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: the final series. He was excellent kicking game, a lot 180 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: better than Harrison, and a lot more to sceptive around 181 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: the rucks. So they're both being their strength to the game, 182 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: and I think I think he's going to be right 183 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: up there as a captain, as a leader who's a 184 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: terrific person in the playing group, and he definitely brings 185 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: a lot to our side as you can see tonight, coach. 186 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 3: Did you see Big Nelson's scuffle with Toby Rudolph in 187 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 3: the second half? 188 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 2: Yeah? I did, I did. Is there a question following 189 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 2: that as well? 190 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 3: I just want to know your thoughts on it. I 191 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 3: know a few years back he got in a scuffle 192 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 3: overseas and you'd have to fear for your life if 193 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 3: you were coming up against Big Nelson. 194 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 5: Yeah. 195 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: I think everyone seen him in the ring earlier in 196 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: the year, and you know, I think he's definitely an 197 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: experienced boxer, and I think anyone who is stupid to 198 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: try to fight him out there on the field, you know, 199 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: to be Rudolph definitely's got some big kegs trying to 200 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: pull on big Nelson. 201 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 4: Tell you what, bloody monster was good? Make money money, 202 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 4: make make money money. 203 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 3: He was. 204 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 4: He was good, mate, ran the ball. He looks like 205 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 4: he's back to his one hundred percent fitness. 206 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think that was probably the probably the 207 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: big moment for me, buzz. I think the first two 208 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: minutes when he got out and he faked to drop 209 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: Nelson to serve solom Owner off and he scored himself. 210 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 2: I think that was probably a good sign that he 211 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 2: was in for a big game. 212 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:43,719 Speaker 5: Yeah right, so. 213 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 2: I think especially that's been. 214 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: Our folks all week, the start of if you can 215 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: start fast in a big game, you actually win the 216 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: ball game ninety percent of the time. I think of 217 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: the last ten years, whoever scored first in a Grand 218 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: Final has actually gone on to win. So you know 219 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: that's that's a start for you to fill. 220 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 4: Yeah one, make money money, make money money, Thank you coach, money, 221 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 4: money money. 222 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: Here's the Kronulla Sharks head coach. 223 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 5: Just too at this table is a little bit flimsy, 224 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 5: don't knock it over. 225 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: Ah, excuse me, coach, just to start that the initial 226 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: start up to that game, off the kickoff, What are. 227 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 2: You what were your thoughts with how you started that game. 228 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 4: Look, here's the thing I don't blame Will Pappenhausen. He 229 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 4: hit it pretty sweet, probably underestimated the breeze behind that 230 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 4: perhaps had behind him. Look, this is the thing, right 231 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 4: in a game, things go wrong at the start, that 232 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 4: that's it's just going to happen. The really imperative things 233 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 4: are when things go wrong. Firstly you're able to defend 234 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 4: the error, and secondly you've got to forget about the 235 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 4: eraror we didn't either. We let that era bleed into 236 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 4: our performance. 237 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 3: You are found it hard to get forward today, coach? 238 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, we did if we were extremely indecisive in yardage, yardage, 239 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 4: bringing your ball out, bringing the ball out of trouble. 240 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 4: You know, the thing about it is it's all about simplicity, 241 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 4: just playing dead straight, getting forward, playing the ball quick. 242 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 4: For whatever reason. You know, we didn't know whether we 243 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,839 Speaker 4: want to go forward. We didn't know whether we want 244 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 4: to go sideways. Yeah, they built it us in the 245 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 4: yardage battle. We were just totally totally indecisive. In fact, 246 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 4: after that initial era, we just, I reckon, for the 247 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 4: next twenty five minutes, we just look completely off balance. 248 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: You said during the week you were going to play 249 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 1: them hard through the middle and. 250 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 2: Shift the ball a lot. What was your thoughts on 251 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 2: the attack? 252 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 4: The attack was the attack was poor. There's a couple 253 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 4: of reasons for Look, look, we play our best football, 254 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 4: right We play our best football when we do less, 255 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 4: when we play simple. There was there was a game 256 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 4: a little bit earlier and against Melbourne in Melbourne, and 257 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 4: it was a day game where we beat them. 258 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 5: Right now, the. 259 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 4: Reason we beat them is because we were forced to 260 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 4: play simple. There was no Nickeo, there was no trendle right. 261 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 4: We had Young, we had Young Atkinson and we had 262 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 4: Blake Brailey in the halves. Now, because we had that course, 263 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 4: we were missing our hearts. We had to play simple football. 264 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 5: But guess what'll work for us? 265 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 4: Straight power football and we played through the Melbourne storm. 266 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 5: I reckon. 267 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 4: If there's something that probably typifies our performance, if you 268 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 4: look at what could have been our first penalty we got, 269 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 4: we knocked it into touch right, run halfway, we knock 270 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 4: it forward and this is the perfect oportune to roll 271 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 4: forward and to set our compass right. And we went 272 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 4: two passes the middle, then we do another first receiver 273 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 4: play to the edge, then we take another first receiver 274 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 4: pass back into the middle, and then we came back 275 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 4: to another first receiver play. It was just so sideways. 276 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 4: We're just skimming across the face of the defense where 277 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 4: you've got to roll your sleeves up early in the 278 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 4: contest and you drive through. Just very basic, simple football 279 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 4: and you set your compass right. 280 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 5: We just didn't do it. 281 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 3: Geez. Coach Ham mcguinnis what a warrior? He looked quite 282 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 3: smashed up by the end of the game. 283 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, he is a warrior. He was, he was, 284 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 4: He was excellent. I mean that's the thing, you know, 285 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 4: you know, at the end of the day, you know, 286 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 4: get beaten up. 287 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 5: He's a footballer. It's the nature of the game. He's 288 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,239 Speaker 5: not modeling for Vogue. 289 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: Is he thoughts on the storm? They were pretty good tonight. 290 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: How good do you think they were? 291 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 5: Storm? 292 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 4: Storm were fantastic. Storm were typical Melbourne storm. We knew 293 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 4: what we're going to get. And the thing about it 294 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 4: is with the Melbourne storm, right if they if they 295 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 4: win the yardage battle and they get forward. Then straight 296 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 4: away you got Harry Grant jumping out of dummy half. 297 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 4: And when Harry Grant jumps out of dummy half, that 298 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 4: brings Munster into play. It brings Jerome Hughes and perhaps 299 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 4: into play. When they get forward and those blokes start 300 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 4: drilling through the middle of the field, it's rugby league 301 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 4: version of a damn damn wall bursting. 302 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 5: And that's that. That was a tail of tape. 303 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 4: Harry Grant in particular was magnificent and monster from the 304 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 4: first first time he carry the foot Paul, he just 305 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 4: ran at us and he tormented us every time he 306 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 4: had it. 307 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 3: Was there anyone you can pick out of tonight that 308 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 3: was stood out from the rest of the pack in 309 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 3: your on your side. 310 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 4: I don't know, mate, I'll go away, and it's a 311 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 4: it's a team game. You don't sort of sing to 312 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 4: let anyone out in my opinion, for praise nor criticism. 313 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 4: So I'm going to have a look at the tape 314 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 4: and that's probably something answer in hindsight. Anyway, I see 315 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 4: someone's got to do something about this table feed in 316 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 4: someone's gonna knock it over. 317 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: Twenty eight to sixteen North Queensland Cowboys defeating the Newcastle Knights. 318 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: And here is the Cowboys winning coach. 319 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 5: What do you reckon?

I think when Scott Drinkwater shows 348 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: up and plays like Scott drink Water, he's He's the best, 349 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: nearly the best. 350 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: Player in the NRL. 351 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, Phil Rothfield, Daily Telegraph and the NR rule three sixty? 352 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 4: What are you going to? 353 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 5: Yeah?

It was pretty red hot tonight? Yeah right, I. 356 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: Think he was pretty red hot, Phil. I think we 357 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: did a lot of work on him during the week. 358 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: We know that he's their main man. Where he goes 359 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: and he's the biggest. 360 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 2: Dangerous threat, so yeah, right. 361 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: I think I think when Calen Pong's on fire, you know, 362 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: that's when Newcastle win. 363 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 2: And I think he had some really good moments tonight. 364 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: I think he had some moments that we should I 365 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: think he'd want back and I think obviously we come 366 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: back on top, so we obviously did a pretty good job. 367 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:50,479 Speaker 5: Grew up in Newcastle. 368 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, coach, did you see coach, did you see big 369 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 3: Jason town Malolo's hit on Leo Thompson in the second half? 370 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I did see that, big kid, And I 371 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: mean Jason's been doing that his whole career, so I 372 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: think you know, he probably hasn't been His performance has 373 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: probably been under criticism the last couple of years, probably 374 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: not replicating his form of what he used to be. 375 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: But that's what Jason brings to our team. And he's 376 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: a different player than what he was three or four 377 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: years ago, but you know he was instrumental in. 378 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 4: It's a bullok Richie again, You've got the Sharks next week. 379 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 4: They were disappointing. It's going to be a challenge. 380 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 2: Fits. 381 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 5: He's going to have him up, Toby Rudolph. He's going to. 382 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 4: Be going to be a handful. Nicke L Hines.

Why are you? 388 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 3: Who? 389 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,719 Speaker 1: Is there anybody else you want to talk about him? 390 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: Is there a question following this, No. 391 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 3: Coach, who stood out for you tonight? 392 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: I mean we've talked about Scotty Drinkwater earlier, but I 393 00:17:59,000 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: think Tom didn't. 394 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 2: Tom didn'ts been doing it all year for us, and 395 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 2: I think. 396 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: You know, he gets reward at the end of the 397 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: game there with a little shove and go and he 398 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: gets a try and we won a finals up in 399 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 1: North Queensland. So I think at the end of the day, 400 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: you know, he epitomizes what we're all about. You know, 401 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 1: we're still North Queenslanders. 402 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 4: Scutty drink Water grew up in Central Coast and that's 403 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 4: not far from Newcastle. 404 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 5: I grew up in Newcastle. 405 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 3: Coach. One second, please, coach, I'm just going to ask 406 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 3: you said the statement just before we're still North Queenslanders. 407 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 3: What does that mean? What means we're from North Queensland. 408 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 3: The question was about who stood out for you tonight? Yeah, 409 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 3: and we're still in North Queenslanders. 410 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 5: Some of that Queensland bullshit? Slater? Slater? Is is it? 411 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 3: Thanks? 412 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 4: Coach? 413 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 5: Go on? Yeah? Right? 414 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 1: And now are you going to hear from the Newcastle 415 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 1: Nights losing coach? 416 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, you're fine. Oh, Susan. 417 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 3: Coach thoughts on the match, Proud of the boys. 418 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 4: You know, a difficult place to come up here in 419 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 4: the heat and humidity and in Townsville pax Stadium, a 420 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 4: lot of noise. I thought twenty eight sixteen not a 421 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 4: true indication of the game. I thought that it was 422 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 4: a really really tight game, and there are a couple 423 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 4: of things that happened in the game. It could have 424 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 4: went our way. There was the intercept with Cayle Felt. 425 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 4: I mean, Felt doesn't pick that off, then that's the 426 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 4: six points swing our way. That could have been the difference. 427 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 4: But you know that's yeah, you know, twenty eight sixteen 428 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 4: no indication. 429 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 5: I thought it was. 430 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 4: I thought it was a really tough battle, and I 431 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 4: thought I thought we were excellent, particularly in defense. 432 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: Coach, like you, Jacket, I just wanted to say, what 433 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 1: do you think cost you the game tonight? 434 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 5: Yeah? 435 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 4: Mate, Yeah, like you shud too, Bro, costas probably just 436 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 4: a few fundamental errors. Oftentimes when you come into these 437 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 4: really big games in finals, now you think about all 438 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 4: all the things you've got to do. Sometimes you know, 439 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 4: all the tricks and the flicks and the game plans 440 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 4: and everything. The thing about it's winning big games winning 441 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 4: really big games where the test matches origins Grand finals 442 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 4: or finals matches. You just need to do the key 443 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 4: simple fundamental as well, the catch, the pass, making your tackles, 444 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 4: nailing your kicks. If you do those things well, you're. 445 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 5: Going to win. 446 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 4: And we just let ourselves down on two or three 447 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 4: occasions drop simple balls. That's at the end of the day, 448 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 4: that was that was the thing that costs us. Not 449 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 4: a lack of effort, just a lack of execution here 450 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 4: and there. 451 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 3: Coach, what are the expectations for next season? 452 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 4: The bottom line is, once again we've we've crept into 453 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,880 Speaker 4: the eight and we out been bowled out a little. 454 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 4: We've been knocked out week one or last year we 455 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 4: got into week two. 456 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 5: But you know, we blow our expectations. It's time. It's 457 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 5: time for It's time for us. 458 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 4: It's time for Newcastle to take that next step. 459 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 5: That's the thing. 460 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,439 Speaker 4: So we're going to go away in the off season. 461 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 4: We're going to work in our football. We're going to 462 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 4: come up, we're going to come up with a game plan. 463 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 4: We'll get them up with some principles the next year 464 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 4: and I guarantee we'll do it next year. We're going 465 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 4: to be starting to beat the teams like Storm and 466 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 4: we're going to be beating teams like the Penrith. That's 467 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 4: what we're going to do. And when you can beat 468 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 4: the Storm in Penrith, then you can beat anyone. You 469 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 4: put yourself in a position and win the competition. 470 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, coach, is something sorry? 471 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 5: Is a laugh?

And yes, yeah, well you're right there, 514 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 5: bull dog. 515 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 6: You know, I think I think we really showed that 516 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 6: mainly spirit tonight. 517 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 3: And we've tried to. 518 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: Be as connected as he possibly can be in the 519 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: community all year, and you know, that's one thing we 520 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 1: found that when mainly weren't firing, that lack of connection 521 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: to the to the community, and that's something. 522 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 6: That we really try to get back this year. So yeah, 523 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 6: thanks your. 524 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 3: Question coach that the dog started fast. How did you 525 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 3: manage to come away with it in the end? 526 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 6: Well, I think that's a good question. Ready, I think 527 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 6: we probably are. I think we probably got away with 528 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 6: the win in the end because of our resilience. 529 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: Plays like jo Jivovich, I think he really epitomizes what 530 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: our culture is about. 531 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 5: Although we were. 532 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 6: Under the pump most of the time, I'm pretty sure 533 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 6: that they had possession that we had no field position, 534 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 6: But in that mainly mentality, we ended up getting away 535 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 6: with the win because that's who we are internally. 536 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 4: So Phil Rothfield and a Roll three sixty and Daily 537 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 4: Telegraph at the Broncos like what happened? 538 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 5: Oh, I'm not going to. 539 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 2: Comment on any of that at the moment. 540 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 3: Coacher Daly Cherry Evans aging like fine wine in terrific form. 541 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: Again he is he is, And thanks for asking that 542 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: question as well, by the way, I mean Daly has 543 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 1: been instrumental for us. That was and you know, theout 544 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,360 Speaker 1: a shadow of a doubt. You know, he's someone that 545 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: we want to build his club around. I'm pretty sure 546 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 1: he's he's got at. 547 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 4: Least where it was turbo fit? Was turb Was he 548 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 4: because he clutched his shoulder a couple of look, so 549 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 4: was he? 550 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 5: Should he have taken the field? 551 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 6: Well, that's an excellent question, Phil, and I appreciate you asking. Yeah, right, 552 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 6: I think Turbot was fit. And he wouldn't have gone 553 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 6: there there unless he thought he was fit enough and 554 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 6: to play the game. 555 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 5: And I and I was. 556 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 6: Actually really proud of his efforts. He did a really 557 00:24:59,480 --> 00:24:59,959 Speaker 6: excellent job. 558 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 4: You know when the eagle, Yeah, was that playing in 559 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 4: the sheds? Do you do this? Did you do the 560 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 4: team song? 561 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 5: Do the eagle? 562 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 2: That's actually not the team song. We run out to that. 563 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 4: So what's the what's the what is the merely victory song? 564 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 2: Phil, I'm not going to go into that right now. 565 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 2: I'm not going to go into that. 566 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 3: Who was your best tonight? There was a culmination of 567 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 3: players were playing good. Yeah. 568 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 6: I think my favorite probably out there was Hamaloku. I 569 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,360 Speaker 6: think big Amola. He was probably the game breaker for us. 570 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: He didn't really look like making a line break or scoring, 571 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,719 Speaker 1: and then we gave Hamolo the ball a couple of 572 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: times and he beat three or four tackles and made 573 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: some consistent line. 574 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:44,959 Speaker 5: Breaks for us. 575 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 1: So but we'll we'll go back and have a look 576 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: at the tape and we'll probably be able to make 577 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: a more dictated decision earlier in the week. 578 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 3: Thanks coach. 579 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 4: Just one more things, Dan Richie, just once again proud. 580 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 4: You've really made us proud.

That's that's a key. 588 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,679 Speaker 4: Ingredient when you go into these games is getting up 589 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 4: for physically and emotionally, and our blokes were sky high, 590 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 4: and I reckon the crowd had a bit to do 591 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 4: with that. The crowd, with our crowd all season being magnificent, 592 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 4: they've really ridden the wave with us, and it was 593 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 4: pretty amazing for the players after some of those wins 594 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 4: at the back end of the year, to hear people 595 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 4: celebrating in the streets of Belmore makes you really proud 596 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 4: actually to be associated with his club in any form, 597 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 4: little of them being. 598 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 5: The head coach. 599 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 4: So yeah, they our boys started really, really well. 600 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 5: It was terrific. 601 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 3: Many of many of us here have thought that you 602 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 3: guys might have been the better team tonight. What was 603 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 3: the difference in the. 604 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 4: End, you know, I reckon the difference was, you know 605 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 4: that we did a lot of little things here and there, 606 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 4: We had an era. 607 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 5: Here and there. 608 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, I put it 609 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 4: all down to it, we didn't have a lot of 610 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 4: experience in finals football. A lot of those a lot 611 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 4: of those young players that was their first crack at 612 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 4: the finals, and that told there was just little things 613 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 4: that happened, like we started really physically physical we got 614 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 4: into them, and sometimes that physicality just spilled into ill discipline. 615 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 5: You know, you saw that thing in the second half. 616 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 4: Or we had field position mainly going into the heading 617 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 4: into a heavy wind, and we gave them a couple 618 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,880 Speaker 4: of penalties. It was a situation with Joshi Karen. We 619 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 4: pushed Dally Cherry Evans, you know, the referee gave them 620 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 4: a penalty, gave them film position. 621 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 5: It was just little things. 622 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 4: Like that that that cost us. And a lot of 623 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 4: that is down to experience, you know, lacking experience in 624 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 4: big games. 625 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 3: You really built this year as a club. Co what 626 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 3: does nest do you look like? 627 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's really important that we continue to continue to grow. 628 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,199 Speaker 5: We've seen with other sides this year. 629 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 4: Don't want to talk about other football teams, but you 630 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 4: know an example has been the Brisbane Broncos where they've 631 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 4: had success and with that came adulation, but unfortunately with 632 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 4: that coming to grieve. 633 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 5: I don't know, as again I don't want to speak 634 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 5: for Kevy. 635 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 4: Side, but you know, I don't know whether it was 636 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 4: complacency or basically that sort of stuff. 637 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 5: Can throw you off balance. 638 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 4: And although we've been knocked out the first week of 639 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 4: the finals, our goal was to make play finals football. 640 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 5: We achieved that. 641 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 4: We had some great wins, We did some great strides 642 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 4: forward when our players, but the players are going to 643 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 4: our players have got to be able to handle the 644 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 4: positive press that comes to their way collectively and individually 645 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 4: when they walk down the street, you know and billmore 646 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 4: fans coming up and shaking their hands and patting them 647 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 4: on the back and want to buy them a beer. 648 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 4: That can be tricky, that can eat into into your 649 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 4: desire for the following season. This year, our goal was 650 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 4: to play finals football. We achieved it. Next year we're 651 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,479 Speaker 4: going to think about top four. That's what we've got 652 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 4: to do.
