Speaker 1: Welcome to the Daily Telegraph and Roll podcast. Read to
Speaker 1: my left today. Buzzy boy, you're back. I'm popular.
Speaker 2: Have we got a new set?
Speaker 3: Only one who's listening to actually change your device and
Speaker 3: watch but made. I'm so impressed with your suit. How
Speaker 3: good are you going?
Speaker 2: Did you pay for that or at Fox Sports?
Speaker 1: This is mine? This is mine. We stepped it up
Speaker 1: in your absence. We've got the set to pay for
Speaker 1: you anymore. They could afford money on the set.
Speaker 3: You know this is a love job. You know that
Speaker 3: I don't get a penny for this. I have a Yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm going good. I got a very funny story to
Speaker 3: tell you.
Speaker 2: It's exciting. I walked out my front.
Speaker 3: Door yesterday to do the bins, bring the bins back in.
Speaker 3: You you do all those jobs, and this old lady
Speaker 3: in the car pulls up, BIPs the horn your bus.
Speaker 2: Lovely old lady.
Speaker 3: Anyway, she said to me. You don't expect me pulled
Speaker 3: up out the front of your house. You know, she
Speaker 3: says to me, love you and three sixty love you
Speaker 3: call them, She said to me, next, but go easy
Speaker 3: on the ABC.
Speaker 1: That's fair enough, she said.
Speaker 3: It's the only decent radio. Shaw the rest of its
Speaker 3: nonsense joke.
Speaker 2: I go there she.
Speaker 3: Was, but no, I was raised, and I hope you
Speaker 3: were to be polite to old woman.
Speaker 2: Of course old women.
Speaker 3: So I actually said to her, I appreciate your opinion.
Speaker 3: I don't comment on the content of the show. I
Speaker 3: just write the facts about their ratings. And I did
Speaker 3: tell her that the ABC had a much better survey
Speaker 3: than most three.
Speaker 1: One, particularly on Saturdays. I think you'll find.
Speaker 2: Brandon, yeah yeah, on Saturdays when the great.
Speaker 1: You against were against each other on Saturdays. I think
Speaker 1: it's a knockout victory for me.
Speaker 3: Can you Every second week now and now and again
Speaker 3: we get pulled up in the street. But the last
Speaker 3: here extend is a lovely old lady to be blown
Speaker 3: up about the ABC.
Speaker 1: That's good, thank you for the support.
Speaker 4: Well, good story, but.
Speaker 3: Do you think that'll keep the part is in?
Speaker 4: Honestly, this isn't the peak of the show.
Speaker 2: We're in real trouble.
Speaker 1: Let's get to some serious chat here, some sad news
Speaker 1: with you're going to bring us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, let me tell you there was a meeting
Speaker 3: yesterday and we'll go into it more depth. Of a
Speaker 3: panel of judges about a dozen judges Peter Landi's and
Speaker 3: Andrew Abdo to name the next immortal and the next
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame inductee.
Speaker 2: And Ray Hadley very.
Speaker 3: Very emotionally told the room that the great ABC and
Speaker 3: two GB caller David Thirsty Morrow was gravely ill and
Speaker 3: you know, from cancer and so and probably doesn't have
Speaker 3: that much longer with us. And like Peter Velandi's did
Speaker 3: last year when Ian Heads and George Piggins were he
Speaker 3: fast tracked their nomination. So what happened there yesterday? And
Speaker 3: David Morrow, you know, started calling back in nineteen eighty
Speaker 3: I think, and the ABC and you know my favorite
Speaker 3: try ever in Test Football ninety ninety, Ricky putting maul
Speaker 3: over at Old Trafford. He Thirsty called that. But anyway,
Speaker 3: cut to the chase. David Morrow has been inducted into
Speaker 3: the Hall of Fame, which I think is a beautiful
Speaker 3: fitting reward. Very sad. Yes, they were very special. The
Speaker 3: same time, understand, Ray rang Thirsty's wife while he was
Speaker 3: at David's bedside and broke the news. And they're very
Speaker 3: very special.
Speaker 2: And well deserve. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well and look I'm not you know, I was
Speaker 3: never that close to him, like you know a lot
Speaker 3: of his colleagues were. But I spoke to him very
Speaker 3: early when he was diagnosed with cancer and we had
Speaker 3: a good chat. And he's had a fantastic career. What
Speaker 3: I loved about him was that the ABC's you know,
Speaker 3: probably a more serious commentary network. And then he went
Speaker 3: over and joined the gibbras GB and he sort of
Speaker 3: became a Gibra and he could mix and match and yeah,
Speaker 3: and he was a good caller, very caller. Yes, so
Speaker 3: mind you, not only rugby league boys. He could call
Speaker 3: the races, call the cricket. And I think he's in
Speaker 3: the SCG Hall of Fame, isn't he?
Speaker 4: Is that the decision people, and he's and Andrew make
Speaker 4: the decision, the fast track of buzz.
Speaker 2: Yeah it was yeah, but well it's good bye.
Speaker 3: Hardly spoke beautifully though, and very respectfully. And I love
Speaker 3: what they're doing for the families. You know, it was
Speaker 3: so important for Philip Head's joy Heads and all Lean's
Speaker 3: family last year for Ian sadly passed. There's a lot
Speaker 3: more to talk about, which was a bit happier yesterday too.
Speaker 1: If you want to, well, yeah, you're part of all
Speaker 1: these discussions. The immortals look like, can you give us
Speaker 1: the latest there on what's the plan for this year?
Speaker 3: Yeah, well we'll have a bit of a debate here
Speaker 3: about it, but I can tell you that there is
Speaker 3: going to be an immortal name next month. I have
Speaker 3: no idea who it is. They gave us a piece
Speaker 3: of paper. We had to write one name down, not
Speaker 3: three to one name. Do they give you a list
Speaker 3: short There was a short list there and I could
Speaker 3: probably tell you the short list set.
Speaker 4: I mean, the other interesting thing you were saying, buzzer
Speaker 4: that produced the waiting period, right, the three years now, yeah,
Speaker 4: rather than five years, which brings Cameron Smith into the mix.
Speaker 2: I assume it was.
Speaker 3: Really well, I brought Billy Slater, Cameron Smith, Jonathan Thurston
Speaker 3: into the mix.
Speaker 4: And yeah, well I don't think for me there's no
Speaker 4: debate bus Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I'll just say none of us have a
Speaker 3: clue who it is because it was a secret vote.
Speaker 3: You know there was Bradley Clyde, Ron Kirt, Lorrie Daily,
Speaker 3: brad fit Kenny Irvine. You know that Brett Kenny's name
Speaker 3: was there. Lang and Lazarus Lockire Stirler.
Speaker 4: And it's camp for me, it's Cameron Smith. Yeah, I
Speaker 4: mean I think you look at Cam's record, it's beyond
Speaker 4: what anyone when anyone's achieved this game. Captain Country, Captny
Speaker 4: State played four how many games?
Speaker 1: It was?
Speaker 4: Four first grade games. I don't think there's no debate
Speaker 4: for me. But you know there's some great names here.
Speaker 1: This is a bay. But I'm with you. Read I've
Speaker 1: said this before. I think I've said this as well.
Speaker 1: Of my generation of people that I've watched, I've seen
Speaker 1: two mortals, only two Andrew John's camp Smith for mine,
Speaker 1: they're the only ones that I would classify.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't wack Thurston.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know.
Speaker 4: He's the only one I reckon Billy.
Speaker 3: My view is, and I certainly can't be Billy Sad
Speaker 3: has to be in a mortal because a great Warren
Speaker 3: said he was a better player than Langland's mate.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I just think I think it's such a
Speaker 1: special absolutely, and I think we should induct as few
Speaker 1: as possible so it doesn't agree with you more so
Speaker 1: for mine.
Speaker 3: That's just And mind you, they're going to update the
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame every year, which they should.
Speaker 1: Well, there are hall of famers, right, the.
Speaker 3: Immortals is only going to be one every four years.
Speaker 4: What's intriguing there, buzz is you've got to be in
Speaker 4: the Hall of Fame before he can be in a mortar, right,
Speaker 4: But and Campsmith's not in the Hall of Fame. But
Speaker 4: just checked earlier, it might have been yesterday and you
Speaker 4: can go Hall of Fame. You can simultaneously almost go
Speaker 4: in the Hall of Fame and become awardal So that means.
Speaker 3: That arguing you one bit about Cameron Smith, but out
Speaker 3: of respect, I think people have also in that room yesterday.
Speaker 3: Also you know Ron Cook, do they know?
Speaker 2: Do they go?
Speaker 4: I don't know all those guys got claims right, because they're.
Speaker 1: All Locke Hall of Famers, right, there's not obviously not
Speaker 1: a bad plan if you want to argue with me
Speaker 1: around Billy or not, I'm not going to sit here
Speaker 1: and and really taking a task on it, right because
Speaker 1: he is. There's every argument for Billy to be in
Speaker 1: a morning right. I just think it's got to be
Speaker 1: the top of the.
Speaker 3: Top, absolutely, and you've got to and that's sometimes you
Speaker 3: just got to wait, Yeah, how long has copied? How long?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: And that's why out of all those guys, so what
Speaker 1: there's what thirteen names there. I'm I'm honestly only going
Speaker 1: camp Smith.
Speaker 4: So as you saying, they've made the decision. Now they're
Speaker 4: going to induct one and more than every four years, okay, And.
Speaker 3: The good news is too there are a lot of
Speaker 3: other stories outside of that. You know that there's going
Speaker 3: to be an emphasis on women.
Speaker 4: Women are going to Hall of Fame, right, women.
Speaker 2: Referees, Yeah, referees, coaches.
Speaker 4: Arry Gomos should be the first referee.
Speaker 2: In his name came up. It should have his name came.
Speaker 3: He would have got the Coeensland votes.
Speaker 1: They should all have their place in Hall of Fame
Speaker 1: in terms of anyone who contributed to the game, to
Speaker 1: the game.
Speaker 3: But when you look at the list of contributors and
Speaker 3: you think the likes of Ken Arthur's and John Quayle,
Speaker 3: you know, and some great names there.
Speaker 4: Are you in there?
Speaker 2: Buzz? Sorry?
Speaker 4: Are you in there?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: I don't think I don't think so you inde, I'm
Speaker 3: upset too many people that way.
Speaker 1: You have you retire lapse as well before you are.
Speaker 3: I don't upset to part time now, sure you call
Speaker 3: it in that room, Yes that I bagged a bit
Speaker 3: over the years, but it was.
Speaker 2: It was really nice. It was really nice to get
Speaker 2: in there.
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you what you appreciate more than anything
Speaker 3: that David Middleton talk about people who need to be
Speaker 3: in the Hall of Fame. And David will get there
Speaker 3: one day when he starts telling us stories about Harry
Speaker 3: Sunderland and you know that, my goodness. Yeah, he has
Speaker 3: got a brain chip inside his hell in there and
Speaker 3: it stores data.
Speaker 2: Mate.
Speaker 1: You don't have to give us names, buzzy. But how
Speaker 1: many people judging the immortals?
Speaker 2: There was a dozen?
Speaker 1: A dozen?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, we must be thirteen and fourteen.
Speaker 1: I don't know where near that.
Speaker 3: There was some great females, Debbie Splane who's also on
Speaker 3: the Australian Sports Commission Panels and Tracy Homes from the
Speaker 3: a b C. Yeah or former ABC right.
Speaker 1: I think so so interesting it it is an interesting discussion.
Speaker 1: The only thing is if you go by my theory
Speaker 1: and you're only in duck cam Smith in four years time,
Speaker 1: you probably don't have an immortal.
Speaker 3: No, that's in four years time you do Billy's flight.
Speaker 1: There, I wouldn't have Billy in there.
Speaker 3: Well, there you go. That's you don't respect Rabs' opinion.
Speaker 1: Of course I do. Of course I do. Of course
Speaker 1: I do.
Speaker 3: But I'm not going to be suggesting ram saying a
Speaker 3: little bit.
Speaker 1: I'm not sitting here. I'm not going to sit here
Speaker 1: and make a with you. Let's get this so you've
Speaker 1: got Billy in.
Speaker 4: Might all be honest, I'm the Queen's and on with Mick.
Speaker 4: I'm actually not convinced Billy should be in there either. Billy.
Speaker 1: The only thing with Billy is that he did make
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of errors. Right, if we're
Speaker 1: going to critique his game, Okay, we're going to sit there.
Speaker 4: And I can't.
Speaker 3: Make this is nonsense, that is sorry or mortals are
Speaker 3: the pinnacle?
Speaker 4: Well, they can't make mistakes.
Speaker 1: No, no, But I'm just well, why don't you think
Speaker 1: it should be in there?
Speaker 4: I'm not sure if his career dictates.
Speaker 1: His shot, why what's the reason.
Speaker 4: You can't compare his career to became Smith. I agree
Speaker 4: with Tom Smith eclipses him. I would argue maybe j
Speaker 4: T is ahead of him as well.
Speaker 1: They're they're They're the two that I would argue for.
Speaker 4: And I think it's the I'm with you a little bit.
Speaker 3: I think about what about Darren Lockyer. No, it's really
Speaker 3: interesting because the voting before we were at a restaurant
Speaker 3: and trammine and where the last when Joey came in
Speaker 3: and you know now I got punted for the other
Speaker 3: one when they brought it everyone but the one when
Speaker 3: I was Darren Locke had just retired and I said
Speaker 3: to the guys in the room, do we really need
Speaker 3: five years to work out lock here? It should be
Speaker 3: an immortal that's the thing, right, that's recency biases what
Speaker 3: they call it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm a bit like Mick. I think honestly for
Speaker 4: the got the value a little when they added so
Speaker 4: many people last time. I think they had to go
Speaker 4: back mate, they had to put it. But I think
Speaker 4: it should be a really elite, elite group.
Speaker 2: And how many is that?
Speaker 4: Now? What's that again? Now? A pretty significant Yeah, you
Speaker 4: really want to? Committee has to be so so even
Speaker 4: committed to one every four years. It shouldn't be we
Speaker 4: bring one every years. It should be we'll look at
Speaker 4: whether we bring one and every four years and if
Speaker 4: we think that, no, one's when we don't do it.
Speaker 3: When I retire and a lot of people listening to
Speaker 3: this are hoping it's very soon I am going to
Speaker 3: nominate my replacement.
Speaker 4: On the Immortal Source Committee.
Speaker 2: I'm open to the best offers.
Speaker 1: Love onnth Later i'll replace Ready can replace you, then
Speaker 1: I'll replace Ready.
Speaker 3: What's the age I'm not retire not long after you, mate, Bulldog.
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm a bit tired with him and you two.
Speaker 2: You are actually there YouTube keeping. He knocked off one
Speaker 2: of my yarns.
Speaker 3: He did a four point fil four points?
Speaker 4: Did stitch him up?
Speaker 2: All that stitched him?
Speaker 4: That was they stitch me up the night before going
Speaker 4: on My Idea.
Speaker 3: Then Jimmy Smith was gibbering on radio the other day
Speaker 3: my idea please speak.
Speaker 2: That they had a good rating.
Speaker 4: S the n did. Yeah, they did a really good rating.
Speaker 3: They're coming after Triple M Brother and the A B C.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're going good. They're coming after your men at
Speaker 1: the Big Sports Breakfast.
Speaker 2: Well, my boy, it would be nice and clerk he
Speaker 2: turned up.
Speaker 3: It's really interesting and I'll tell you what charts is
Speaker 3: that more people listen to sport, and I think it's
Speaker 3: on the back of this sensational league season. But Big
Speaker 3: Sports Breakfast two point three Glass Survey say at two
Speaker 3: point three VOSSI and all them appear to not have
Speaker 3: taken their listeners, but have built and they've got them.
Speaker 3: True and more people in this city are listening to sport,
Speaker 3: which is great.
Speaker 1: All right, moll, gig for all of us, hopefully more.
Speaker 3: Gigs for all of it. You can't fit your dark
Speaker 3: I can always find time your latest feud. No, I've
Speaker 3: had a quiet week. Haven't feud with anyone this week. Really,
Speaker 3: you don't start those three sixty blokes they carved me
Speaker 3: up the other night. Take them on.
Speaker 4: I might have to come in for your breath and
Speaker 4: great bakfu.
Speaker 2: You know this story? Yeah, a new one on radio.
Speaker 1: Last and said everyone down here to be.
Speaker 2: With him and shut yourself?
Speaker 4: Who said I excluded myself from saying everyone down here,
Speaker 4: I'm down here when I said one's got the niggas
Speaker 4: in the night, I was including me in that.
Speaker 2: Get back flipped.
Speaker 1: Buzz. The sharks are they cooked? No, Nikko, heines, I don't.
Speaker 3: Think they cooked meat. Because of their position on the ladder,
Speaker 3: they're still third. Correct, well, they finished in the top four. No,
Speaker 3: but they'll make the Have you seen our soft Their
Speaker 3: drawer is no Melbourne, no pen or no roosters.
Speaker 1: That seems to be a theme of there last couple
Speaker 1: of years.
Speaker 3: They can't beat the pool teams in then yeah, well
Speaker 3: West Tiger is going to be interesting.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 2: I can't bear the thought of rich and knocking me off.
Speaker 4: I can't see text he wrung me this week he
Speaker 4: was cocker hoop.
Speaker 2: I think he's he smells up that happened. So I
Speaker 2: might take the weekend off.
Speaker 4: But if they lose that game, buzz, I actually think
Speaker 4: they're in danger missing the eighth.
Speaker 1: I think they'll make the eight, but they won't make
Speaker 1: the top four.
Speaker 4: No finished the bottom of the eighth. They'll go out
Speaker 4: straight out the back.
Speaker 3: And that's the sad thing. And what I wrote on
Speaker 3: the Monday, and I don't want to rehash old news,
Speaker 3: but we did no recruitment, not one player outside of
Speaker 3: Billy Burns.
Speaker 4: But they've been so good the year before. I know
Speaker 4: that exoded in the playoffs wet.
Speaker 3: And Waite, Graham and but I think Finucan medical retirement,
Speaker 3: just his presence around the sheds was cost But I
Speaker 3: Fitzy and his coaching staff backed themselves to get more
Speaker 3: out of their current roster. And you know what, they
Speaker 3: haven't got more.
Speaker 1: They haven't got one. No, no, no, no, that's right.
Speaker 4: So I think they're in real trouble. You know. Then
Speaker 4: they've got no Nikko for how long? Two months?
Speaker 2: Maybe?
Speaker 1: Well, the best case scenarios back with the final round
Speaker 1: of the season regular season.
Speaker 4: Honestly, I can see them. I can see a sliver
Speaker 4: a chance they missed the finals, which would be remarkable.
Speaker 1: That would be like, if we're so low on.
Speaker 4: Confidence at the moment.
Speaker 1: Pull that up now. Points they're on twenty four points,
Speaker 1: four points clear of eighth, ninth, tenth.
Speaker 4: That's a lot of games if.
Speaker 1: You look at the sides that are in the sides
Speaker 1: that are out of the eight at the moment, on
Speaker 1: twenty points of the Knights and Dragons, they don't leave from.
Speaker 4: The Sharks, they play some of those teams.
Speaker 1: Then they play the Broncos, who could then they play
Speaker 1: the canber Raiders buzz who we might get to a
Speaker 1: bit later at some point.
Speaker 2: But are you going to bag Riki?
Speaker 1: Well, I just had to issue on a public apology
Speaker 1: that you made me, and since then they have really
Speaker 1: gone too well, they won a game since then.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I did predicting the come bottom four and you made
Speaker 1: me apologize so we'll see where it finishes. Make you
Speaker 1: do anything you can apologize? Well, I did, yeah, because
Speaker 1: I'm going good.
Speaker 2: W a capitulation.
Speaker 1: They were going good and now now back yourself mate.
Speaker 3: There's in journalism mate, but can.
Speaker 1: Stick pressed into it.
Speaker 3: I've had to do a little bit of backbed the club.
Speaker 1: I think we've all no one's pretty to Kennedy go
Speaker 1: as well as we did. What about Paramatta locked in
Speaker 1: Jason Ryles for the next four years? Good appointment buzz.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 3: I think Risey is a very very smart, intelligent human
Speaker 3: being who knew he wasn't quite ready for the rebuild
Speaker 3: that Plannagan's undertaken it, Saint George Lawara, He's waited for
Speaker 3: his moment. He's had experience under Robbo, experience under Belly,
Speaker 3: experience in rugby which hasn't been all that flash with
Speaker 3: Eddie Jones more recently. But I think he can coach
Speaker 3: and yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 4: Think it's a great appointment. I was obviously him and
Speaker 4: Josh Hannah in the end, and I think Rilesey served
Speaker 4: an apprenticeship done his time being part of winning clubs.
Speaker 4: You mentioned the Roosters in Melbourne and I think he
Speaker 4: was a logical man for the job, and Josh Hannell
Speaker 4: get his chance next of the rank potentially, But I
Speaker 4: think this is Ben Hornby's sorry, Ben's obviously flying at
Speaker 4: the moment. Yeah, I think maybe Ben's jump Josh.
Speaker 3: So I think the right man for this job, asked you,
Speaker 3: is a new head coach enough for paramatter? Do they
Speaker 3: need to look at the entire football operation, including Head
Speaker 3: of Football Mark O'Neill, and look at what's happened there
Speaker 3: over the last couple of years. Can you expect do
Speaker 3: they need more? Do they need better recruitment? The players
Speaker 3: they lose, the juniors they lose.
Speaker 1: I think this is their opportunity now to leave their
Speaker 1: fingerprints on because it's easy to blame Brad, right, it's
Speaker 1: easy to blame Brad. So a disconnect between the footy
Speaker 1: club and the players and the players that they've lost
Speaker 1: and all this sort of stuff. Right, Well, now that
Speaker 1: excuse is gone. They've handpicked the coach. They've got the
Speaker 1: coach they wanted. The CEO had a football chairman of
Speaker 1: got the coach that they wanted. You know, they were
Speaker 1: all there when Brad was already there, and some of
Speaker 1: those things were already in place, So I'm going to
Speaker 1: judge him on the next little bit now, Buzz, I don't.
Speaker 4: Think they need to put brooms final two years ago.
Speaker 4: That's Romson needs to be tinkered with a bit, right.
Speaker 4: They need to make some change, need to keep lays
Speaker 4: to Lungey. That's crucial for them, right. They need to
Speaker 4: tinker with the roster a bit. It doesn't need a
Speaker 4: major over.
Speaker 1: But it's a reflection of obviously, but it's a reflection
Speaker 1: of the old coach too, Buzz because he he loved
Speaker 1: that power game and they invested in.
Speaker 3: Brown the stupid contract with so many get out causes.
Speaker 1: They're the same agent, stupid one.
Speaker 2: Well, Brad will get Perth and.
Speaker 1: Say anything about Perth, but.
Speaker 3: Yeah, trying to Well, sorry for having a vision Michael's
Speaker 3: it's so him.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he won't. But they don't have
Speaker 1: a they don't have a club yet. Who's the pointing
Speaker 1: a coach?
Speaker 4: What do you think Brow will get the Perth job?
Speaker 3: What do you think I've had a little bit of
Speaker 3: intelligence that really there's people involved with this sort of
Speaker 3: a fan.
Speaker 1: They met him, Yeah, they didn't meet him, but they're
Speaker 1: going to meet a host a thousand people. They met
Speaker 1: a lot of people.
Speaker 3: Next time I look backwards.
Speaker 1: I just think it's premature to declare anyone coaching Perth
Speaker 1: because they just.
Speaker 2: Don't to clear them or did I you said.
Speaker 1: So? I don't know.
Speaker 3: Could be if you two want to bring Ricky back.
Speaker 1: Well if we, if we crystal ball, I've.
Speaker 3: Got forty eight years experience in this and you Boks
Speaker 3: were nappies.
Speaker 1: Maybe ready, I'm sure.
Speaker 4: I'm sure Rolls will wrap his arms around Dylan Brown
Speaker 4: as a matter of urgency, same as we'll do Withxact Lomax,
Speaker 4: same as will do a place to Lungey, you know,
Speaker 4: and he'll make sure Dylan's come to.
Speaker 1: The issue is the Brown.
Speaker 3: Why have they been in the last couple of years.
Speaker 3: I reckon it's to the front row.
Speaker 1: I agree, And because they've been trying to play the
Speaker 1: same game. They got him to the Grand Final and
Speaker 1: the coach never evolved, that's part of it. And the
Speaker 1: roster never evolved.
Speaker 3: You're not going to get storry when Brad signs in Perth.
Speaker 3: Your bag and him so you probably will deep in Perth. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I interview you and did interview the premier and the
Speaker 3: w A.
Speaker 1: What about that? It's very rare.
Speaker 4: I can't get a premiere on the fifth.
Speaker 1: Cookie Loves He Loves Cook. I don't know. I just
Speaker 1: think that's there'll be some changes.
Speaker 4: Rumors about going.
Speaker 1: Around Madison, Sean Lane. Those guys are on big money.
Speaker 1: Haven't been able to replicate that form. You know, there's
Speaker 1: no issue with Mitch Moses, Dylan Brown, Clink Utherson went forward.
Speaker 4: Now no, okay, no, they're not.
Speaker 1: Speaking.
Speaker 3: I need an angry man up front, don't they You
Speaker 3: know FISHA Harris and I.
Speaker 4: Know then you'd be great for.
Speaker 1: Them, and well he'll be on the market November one.
Speaker 4: He'd be great for them.
Speaker 3: So that's what they know. They know.
Speaker 1: Fash up young legs. Yeah, they need younger legs because
Speaker 1: they're not far off that a lot.
Speaker 2: To how long off for four weeks in a while.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want to make this all a bit mate.
Speaker 2: It is a better podcast when I meet you.
Speaker 1: You got the punters have asked for you and mobs.
Speaker 1: Have you got some male and Mobsy or what's going on?
Speaker 1: He's still around.
Speaker 3: I've got an exclusive on Mobsy. You know, Gibber is
Speaker 3: still playing soccer at a Hi level.
Speaker 2: Level reasonably, I know that high level.
Speaker 3: But he's done his back. He's gone for going for
Speaker 3: pig games with Boss to get the bannings, get some concre.
Speaker 4: Claimed.
Speaker 3: Now now I'm self employed, semi retire, and he doesn't
Speaker 3: do bore.
Speaker 2: Clearly I can give it to you.
Speaker 1: Well, speaking of coaches, who do we see next in line?
Speaker 1: You touched on it because it's been a it's been
Speaker 1: an interesting one because over the last few years, it's
Speaker 1: been crazy. It's given.
Speaker 4: I don't want to talk about it's got a lot
Speaker 4: of trouble doing that coach.
Speaker 1: Because it's given. Was Cavin Serrado, was the Mark, Jason Royles.
Speaker 1: These are the guys of the last few years who
Speaker 1: have been anointed as long term NRL head coaches. They're
Speaker 1: off the table now, so you know, let's not talk
Speaker 1: about the older guys in terms of Mike Maguire, Brad Arthur,
Speaker 1: Justin Holbrook, guys who who may get another opportunity at
Speaker 1: some point, and they well, they will get an opportunity
Speaker 1: at some point. But let's look at some of those
Speaker 1: guys that probably haven't had a crack in the NRROL yet.
Speaker 1: Who's next in line? Readly, well, I.
Speaker 4: Think at the moment it's probably Hannah and Hornby, Yeah,
Speaker 4: right at the moment. Josh because you're knocking on the
Speaker 4: door for a while, and Ben because he done such
Speaker 4: an outstanding job at thew Sydney been on me. So
Speaker 4: they're probably the obvious guys. They're standout guys.
Speaker 3: Well. Jason Taylor of a coach again, I don't think so.
Speaker 3: He doing a good job at the Dogs with Cameron.
Speaker 3: They were fifteenth last year minus three hundred and seventy
Speaker 3: one differential. He joins the club from a premiership, but
Speaker 3: did he New South Cup? And Cameron obviously deserves the credit.
Speaker 3: But I'd put him in the mix, would you.
Speaker 4: Here's some guys ahead of him. I mean, you've got
Speaker 4: you've got the mix.
Speaker 1: You talk the Bears buzz, yeah, you talk about what
Speaker 1: he's doing over there. I just I just don't think
Speaker 1: like he had a crack at the house, had to
Speaker 1: cracket the Tigers.
Speaker 3: And he's learned a lot since then, too, hasn't he
Speaker 3: Whether he wants the pressure again, I don't think he's probably
Speaker 3: enjoying himself.
Speaker 4: I think he's got like Matt King, Mat King's Yeah.
Speaker 1: That next tier of young Dean Young, did you mention.
Speaker 3: We brought one in England?
Speaker 4: We brush Matty Bellen from our list the other day
Speaker 4: and then Maddie Bellen's probably probably probably keen down the
Speaker 4: track to have a crack and doing a good job
Speaker 4: of the Broncos. There's a lot of people talk about
Speaker 4: a lack of coaches. There's so many coaches in the system.
Speaker 3: That's now it's a different What I worry about is expansion.
Speaker 3: Is the Dolphins work because Wayne Bennett was there and
Speaker 3: em and Sally pulled together that such a competitive roster
Speaker 3: and Wayne managed it. There was and it was so
Speaker 3: important what they've done. There's no other Wayne Bennett Belliates. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: And that's what worries me about that. Everyone says not
Speaker 3: enough players, but what about coaches.
Speaker 4: I think there's enough coaches.
Speaker 1: We're still thinking about what I'm saying, you made it.
Speaker 3: You need to figure ahead not just a coach, but.
Speaker 1: You look at the guys that are unemployed at the moment,
Speaker 1: they would get a job, would be brought after Michael Maguire.
Speaker 1: There's two coaches justin Holbrook. And then we're talking about
Speaker 1: guys I just Demetrio and then we're talking about well,
Speaker 1: by the way, the guys j T did we have
Speaker 1: you on a JD we put it, Yeah.
Speaker 4: The one you've forgotten about. And at the moment moment
Speaker 4: he's saying he doesn't want to be in our old
Speaker 4: coaches Billy Slave, Yeah, you know you're talking about figureheads.
Speaker 4: Maybe he would be the ultimate figurehead for.
Speaker 3: Respective man in rugby.
Speaker 1: So there's there's coaches there and it'll be interesting as
Speaker 1: you say it. Does the expansion sides go with open trickball,
Speaker 1: A few clubs would have been probably have intimated that they.
Speaker 4: Would the billy. Billy doesn't need money. I suspect I
Speaker 4: think Billy's going all right.
Speaker 1: It will be interesting to say made his one out
Speaker 1: one back like flying expansion sides. Do they go for
Speaker 1: an experienced guy like a Brad or Madge or.
Speaker 4: Do they go a biggerhead or how it's going to
Speaker 4: get the best blowdown coach regardless of who it is.
Speaker 4: I just could go and get the best.
Speaker 3: Recruitment person who's going.
Speaker 4: To be key. Yeah, we did a great job up
Speaker 4: to the dog course. He did a great job and
Speaker 4: he set them up a long term.
Speaker 3: He's just got to stop getting your mate managing him.
Speaker 3: He doesn't manage him by well doing.
Speaker 4: You're going to upset him again. Have you spoken to
Speaker 4: him since you said him last time?
Speaker 1: How?
Speaker 2: I haven't. Okay, we'll be caring a holiday.
Speaker 4: He gave you a holiday. You're about to get a
Speaker 4: longer one if you can't.
Speaker 2: It always that manages him.
Speaker 1: Quit Origin chat before we get into some questions. Sure
Speaker 1: make fire.
Speaker 2: Finally got out of you.
Speaker 1: Are you happy with the new South LALs team?
Speaker 2: Absolutely?
Speaker 1: Obviously Bradman best in for.
Speaker 2: The same with La Treill.
Speaker 3: When you turn the TV on Wednesday, you wish he
Speaker 3: was running out, but Bradman best My goodness, five hundred
Speaker 3: meters two weeks score and try.
Speaker 4: How's his hammy? How's he going?
Speaker 2: You're right, he'll be right?
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 1: I like the I actually don't mind the Barnett.
Speaker 3: Well remember what he didn't you cast all those years
Speaker 3: ago when he took a blake out off the ball
Speaker 3: with his help?
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's Chris Smith. That's not Origin boy.
Speaker 3: You don't ever forget I had an argument, but he can't.
Speaker 3: He backed him on that show that time. Because anyway,
Speaker 3: what about you.
Speaker 4: For there? I understand why he wasn't picked. I didn't
Speaker 4: think he banged the door down on whatever night they
Speaker 4: played Friday.
Speaker 3: I think it was really so ready now saying he's
Speaker 3: a better judge, and I haven't clear he wanted to
Speaker 3: give him made hundred. Robinson wanted to give him made hundred.
Speaker 3: Really really would have him in the I just said
Speaker 3: I would like to see you said you could understand
Speaker 3: by that because.
Speaker 4: Maybe I didn't think he was that good and he
Speaker 4: wasn't against Yeah, he.
Speaker 2: Was saving himself for Origin.
Speaker 1: Origin.
Speaker 3: They played What do you wanted to do?
Speaker 1: And that's probably don't It was a little bit unlucky
Speaker 1: to judge football is.
Speaker 2: On stats going for and another job.
Speaker 4: No not I'm saying his that's probably looked good, but
Speaker 4: I'm saying he failed the eyeball test. I watched watching
Speaker 4: that game.
Speaker 1: I don't think it was great eyeball test.
Speaker 4: Anyway, I would have picked him. I wouldn't picked on,
Speaker 4: saying I can understand why it wasn't picked after watching him.
Speaker 2: That sounds like I love Calum.
Speaker 1: Back and I was just like, we got no issue
Speaker 1: with tom Boy. WA's been overlooked. He looked well done.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, I'm surprised man he moved him back to fall back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, isn't gonna be intriguing how they use Reese wash
Speaker 4: and Calum pomer and when those two guys on the
Speaker 4: on the field at the same time. Man way where
Speaker 4: he's going to play in the middle around.
Speaker 3: Pretty obvious he's the best playing rugby leg Cleary clearly.
Speaker 3: I reckon that his best pong is as good that
Speaker 3: Scar Well.
Speaker 1: There's no doubt that Klan has more natural.
Speaker 3: Players, a lot more natural talent still their football Prize judge.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kilan's got more natural talent than anyone in the game.
Speaker 3: Maybe in ten years are the more.
Speaker 4: You put Calen on the Penrith team and it's astonishing
Speaker 4: to think what he can do.
Speaker 1: He was Yeah, he was good. He was good. Good
Speaker 1: to see him back. And yeah, it's Billy's taking a
Speaker 1: little bit heat. Is under a bit of pump under
Speaker 1: the popular with the Queenslanders. Can you South Wales win? Buzz?
Speaker 2: I think we can.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it'll be it's a toss your corn, It's
Speaker 3: dead said even money, take your peek.
Speaker 4: I like the I think the first twenty will dictate
Speaker 4: the result.
Speaker 1: Thanks and the six against the first twenty minutes of
Speaker 1: origin will dictate.
Speaker 4: How doesn't always dictate the result.
Speaker 3: That's the howest We've got to let more people know
Speaker 3: this is a TV show, not just take control.
Speaker 1: But you can find us on YouTube. I guess.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm I'm going to take it to
Speaker 3: my ninety seven thousand.
Speaker 1: We'll send you the link, buzz when it goes up, I'm.
Speaker 3: Going to send it out.
Speaker 4: And every of them are robots.
Speaker 2: There is not one robot.
Speaker 1: If you if you said n RL podcast on YouTube,
Speaker 1: you'll find it's so professional.
Speaker 4: What's your block Telly up to on Twitter these days?
Speaker 4: What up to you?
Speaker 3: Reckon that ten to twelve thousand?
Speaker 1: I just mute him, buzz.
Speaker 2: Why do you mute him?
Speaker 3: Just get rid of him?
Speaker 1: Well, then they don't know that I've don't see that, Jim.
Speaker 3: I like them to know.
Speaker 1: I don't want to give when they's bastion. All right,
Speaker 1: let's get through some questions here, boys, Chris Goes, who
Speaker 1: are your candidates for Daily M So far? Yeah, delim
Speaker 1: so far? So perhaps Hughes, walk I Law, Edwards, Burden
Speaker 1: and some of the names on the list. I like
Speaker 1: Jerame Hughes.
Speaker 4: I was going to say Jerame Hughes as well.
Speaker 2: Actually I'd say Hughes.
Speaker 1: Who else were Dylan Edwards started on five but sort
Speaker 1: of since his injuries come back to the field a
Speaker 1: little bit.
Speaker 2: But what is Zach Lomax?
Speaker 3: Well, you would never say Morris was here half a
Speaker 3: winger when he won half was.
Speaker 2: Remember he won.
Speaker 1: Very very they gave it to him retrospectively, Yeah, not.
Speaker 3: Sure, but if Lomax wins is a winger will be remindable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Jerome's man.
Speaker 1: Jerome, Yeah killing it?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, Lou has been gone. What to actually?
Speaker 1: Dylan wants to know which non regular player has shown
Speaker 1: during Origin that's up to first grade and could be
Speaker 1: targeted by another club. So we're looking like a tray fuller.
Speaker 1: Who else has been really good that we probably haven't
Speaker 1: had a chance to look at before.
Speaker 3: We don't have Origin players.
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to think of some of the Broncos
Speaker 4: at the trucks.
Speaker 2: In the Sanders.
Speaker 4: We should have done some research. Should where until he's
Speaker 4: been playing since.
Speaker 1: The other day, but not probably Blake Steet we saw him.
Speaker 4: I haven't had enough to in your top fifty school
Speaker 4: boys listed last year?
Speaker 3: What about the young fellow in Newcastle? The fullback he
Speaker 3: went back off. Yeah, but again he's contracted I think long.
Speaker 1: Term people, so they sort of next Tony wants to
Speaker 1: know why can't the Saints dropped two games from Win
Speaker 1: and Coggor and play them at Aliants because they'd probably
Speaker 1: be a riot.
Speaker 4: Good shout last time. You know my view on suburban grounds.
Speaker 3: I think it's a very good This week Coga, it
Speaker 3: seems points last year like Campaign.
Speaker 4: I didn't lose. I said I got funding for the
Speaker 4: ground and knock it down without funding. They got funding,
Speaker 4: not enough, but still knock it down.
Speaker 1: I don't want the Dragons taking games away from Congress.
Speaker 1: So even though the crowds at Cogo have been pretty poor,
Speaker 1: if you sat there and break it down.
Speaker 4: Terrible, all wrong. I was there for the last game, horrific.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the crowd has been pretty bad for a little bit.
Speaker 4: Yeah, throw on the Dragons fans team having a gate.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you if they were playing Sous, there'd be
Speaker 3: a case for Alliance and the US.
Speaker 1: Games they've hardly packed up. I don't know. I can't
Speaker 1: remember last on Color as a sellouts a while.
Speaker 3: If Souse come Gordon, you were playing them, should be
Speaker 3: moved to Alliance.
Speaker 4: I'm with you.
Speaker 1: No, don't start will then there'd be no games at
Speaker 1: Shark Park because they sell it out everywhere, because I
Speaker 1: get no one in there for buzzes with me moving buzzes,
Speaker 1: moving games out of Shark Park.
Speaker 4: Okay, don't start me on Shark Pass females.
Speaker 1: From Joel, I have an idea for the Vegas concept
Speaker 1: to help to help building better connection between Super League
Speaker 1: and the n r L. The World Club Challenge should
Speaker 1: be played in Vegas as one of the four games
Speaker 1: on offer, but it should be worth two competition points
Speaker 1: to each competition from Joel.
Speaker 4: Would do that, they'd be playing an extra games.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how it would work.
Speaker 2: I don't on the concept of playing the game, and
Speaker 2: I don't want to be.
Speaker 1: Thank you Joel. Should Nico be moved to six? Here?
Speaker 1: Isn't it a half back? In my opinion, it does
Speaker 1: not have a long kicking game. So should they move
Speaker 1: Nico from seven to Is he more of a six
Speaker 1: than a seven?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 3: Where did he played when he won the Dalian Metal
Speaker 3: by the length of the straight half bait? Didn't he matter?
Speaker 3: He'll be all right, Yeah, he'll be Okay.
Speaker 1: I get what Luke's saying. Though, like if he had
Speaker 1: an organized in seven which freed Nico up. His strength
Speaker 1: is his running game. I don't actually mind that if
Speaker 1: you had the right combination with braid and trindle do that.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. But if you did have an organized
Speaker 1: in seven, I don't think it's a silly, silly fashion
Speaker 1: from David. This is a tongue in cheek. Why hasn't
Speaker 1: Madge got Paul Gallon running the water for the Mighty Blues.
Speaker 1: I guarantee Nate Miles doesn't have a go with Joseph
Speaker 1: saw Lee here.
Speaker 4: That'd be good to see, wouldn't it?
Speaker 2: Good question?
Speaker 1: And just finally, buzz we had last week really made
Speaker 1: a Greek dish, oh so good? Stolen stolen lambits electical electical,
Speaker 1: and I said out here, if anyone wants it, I'll
Speaker 1: email it. I must have emailed a dozen recipes people.
Speaker 1: There's a guy called Bill that's already made it from
Speaker 1: the UK and it looked great. I'm flick it to
Speaker 1: you too, my dad.
