1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,520 Speaker 1: Bott on our three sixty right week from Every Angle 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 1: Wats You by NIV joined me again the Great Gordon 3 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: Tallis's speaking of journal Australian James Hooper and Michael carrianas 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: in the Battle of Brisbane Ignites. It's only two years old, 5 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: but it is well and truly on five point thirty 6 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 1: pm live and exclusive on Fox Lea. The only place 7 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,480 Speaker 1: to see it is right here, and it is an 8 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: important game, Gordy for a lot of reasons. 9 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 10 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,079 Speaker 3: Well, the Dolphins over seventy five years old and the 11 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 3: Broncos thirty six. But the RIVALI is there. They both 12 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 3: want to own the town. You see their flags up 13 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 3: all year around the Dolphins one obviously, you know said 14 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 3: a precedent that there's two sides in Brisbane and Britain 15 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:36,919 Speaker 3: want to hold on to be called the Brisbane Broncos. 16 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 2: So I think it might be a sellout. 17 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:40,319 Speaker 1: And do you feel it up there? 18 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 2: Absolutely? Absolutely. 19 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 3: You got to pick a side and everybody asks you, like. 20 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: Who's going to win? 21 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 3: Like that's it's probably the game Cowboys and Brisbane, but 22 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 3: this one Dolphins, Dolphins versus the Bronx. 23 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 2: Who's going to win? Who are you going for? 24 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 4: Sometimes the game just serves up awesome narratives. And when 25 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 4: you see that vision of Kevy as a player pulling 26 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 4: Wayne's years after they've won a premiership trophy together. They 27 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 4: won five competitions in total at the Brisbane Broncos and 28 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 4: this script you couldn't possibly penet any better. There is 29 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 4: no game that Wayne would have had circled on the 30 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 4: calendar more than the Brisbane Broncos because it was a 31 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 4: bit of split. He still holds a lot of resentment 32 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 4: about the way that his time at the club finished. 33 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 4: And as much as they are mates, Wayne and Kevy 34 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 4: and they've spent a lot of their lives winning and 35 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 4: enjoying success together, Wayne would love nothing more than to 36 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 4: rub the Broncos out of September contention by winning this weekend. 37 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's what it's all about. Loser done, and 38 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 5: to set up the Queensland rivalry. As Gordy said, you know, 39 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 5: they've had the Cowboys, they've had the Titans, but this 40 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 5: is a genuine local derby that the Broncos have been 41 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 5: craving out for and it's everything to play for. 42 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: It's awesome, everything to play for, and the Dolphins won't 43 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,639 Speaker 1: be intimidated by the Broncos claiming they own some Corps 44 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: stadium as they know Wayne Bennett's South Sydney switch has 45 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: impacted their season. 46 00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: Do you play every game want to win? 47 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 6: But yeah, obviously, you know Bronco's a big, big club 48 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 6: and at the moment that they're they're up for it now. 49 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 6: So now personally I'd love to just just get a 50 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 6: win against him, just that battle of Brisbane Tony Steadings. 51 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: It's it's there. 52 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 6: He'll be in the home sheds on the weekend, so 53 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 6: it's our home on Sunday. 54 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 7: Sort of having it back saying that since Wayne's signed 55 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 7: of Seus'. 56 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 6: I think that's just external noise from day Dight. Wolf 57 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 6: is signed to be the head coach, so you know, 58 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 6: for us, if anyone's playing bad, they're Wolf his coach 59 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 6: next year, So you're not going to have a spot 60 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 6: on the team if he realizes that they're not committed 61 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 6: to training or playing this year. So yeah, I don't 62 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 6: sort of read too much into that. 63 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: He speaks about Christian Wolf. They're heavily impacted in their 64 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 1: game plans and the way they prepare for each week, 65 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: and has always been emarked as the coach after Wayne leaves, well, 66 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: Christian Wolf break the curse. 67 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 4: Long Wayne Inn big assignment, isn't it. When you look 68 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 4: at the list of previous coaches who've tried it, it's 69 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 4: a tricky assignment. I think the trap that a lot 70 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 4: of young coaches can fall into having worked under Wayne 71 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 4: is they try and be too much like Way. So 72 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 4: it's important that Christian Wolf is his own person. He's 73 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 4: had a lot of success overseas in the UK Super League. 74 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 4: He's won premierships over there. He's had success with Tonger. 75 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 4: He was the coach when Tom Are upset Australia in 76 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 4: those awesome scenes over in New Zealand a couple of 77 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 4: years ago. So I think that he still needs to 78 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 4: make some astute signings to his roster. No, Tom Flegler 79 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 4: has been a huge out for them all season. Jeremy 80 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 4: Marshall King also injured for the back half. He's got 81 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 4: to get into the market. I know they were trying 82 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 4: for Daniel sie FEEDI I don't think that's happening at 83 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 4: this point in time. But if he can get in 84 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 4: the market and make a couple of key signatures, then 85 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 4: I think he can break the duck. 86 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, no doubt. Obviously no Tom Gilbert this year has 87 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 5: hurt him as well. But the Daniel Sefferiti situation. He 88 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 5: went up to the Dolphins last week and toured the facilities. 89 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 5: I think he's keen to get there. It's that's the 90 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 5: matter of the Knights and the Dolphins agreeing to financial 91 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 5: term to try and get that deal done. But the 92 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 5: difference I guess in following Wayne this time compared to 93 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 5: other situations is that. 94 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 8: He's only been there for two years. 95 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 5: Wayne and a lot of the players that he had, 96 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 5: they haven't had a huge amount of success there. So 97 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 5: the emotional connection that he would have had with the 98 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 5: Dragons players, obviously, the Broncos players South Sydney and even 99 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,919 Speaker 5: at Newcastle why they didn't have success. He brought a 100 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 5: lot of those players through it, and a lot of 101 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 5: those guys followed him to Newcastle. So I think that 102 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 5: emotional attachment that he's left with every other club might 103 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 5: not be as severe it is at the Dolphins. 104 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: A lot of their senior players that Wayne brought in 105 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: the club to aging and it won't be there much longer. 106 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: But is that why a teams struggle after Wayne? Because 107 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: Wayne leaves he kind of leaves with an aura, and 108 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,559 Speaker 1: it's hard to sign players. It's hard to attract players 109 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: when Wayne just ups and goes right. So is that 110 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: why you think teams struggle after he leaves. 111 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 3: Or I think, hoops, he just knocked it on the head. 112 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 3: You've got to be yourself because Wayne can just walk 113 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 3: past year. He mightn't say anything for three days. Another 114 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 3: coaches think, Paul, is that what you know? Like other 115 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 3: way you do it? But it works for Wayne because 116 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 3: of silent crimpet you think what's on his mind? So 117 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 3: Wayne just has that aura and it's only Wayne can 118 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 3: coach the way Wayne wants to coach. But at the 119 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 3: end of the day, when he delivers a message, you 120 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 3: can hear him pindroll right. And then if you're a 121 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 3: new coach, don't think that you Wayne, don't try to 122 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 3: follow him. 123 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 2: You've got to be yourself. But he does take a 124 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 2: lot with him, you know. And one I think is 125 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: respect too. 126 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 3: You're not let a bitch about Wayne like you're not 127 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 3: let her go to the media and go to your 128 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 3: manager because Wayne will just get ridier. And then Wayne's 129 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 3: got the power in that situation. So that's that's another 130 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 3: one that he has in his pocket as well. 131 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 2: All right. 132 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, Patrick Carry and his confident so I can sneak 133 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: into the finals despite a disappointing season. 134 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 7: To be in the position you're in now, you feel 135 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 7: as though oversea he's under said. No, we're still playing 136 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 7: foot him chacko week in week out wardless positions. All 137 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 7: I can do is take a week by weekend. You know, 138 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 7: we keep winning games and who knows what you say then, 139 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 7: So we've been unlucky in some games this year and 140 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 7: we had a lot of injuries and adversely in some 141 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 7: of our outside access mid games. 142 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 6: Can you think Wayne and Read to put a dagger 143 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 6: in the heart of the Broncos finals campaign. 144 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 8: I don't know. 145 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: You'll have to Askwayne. 146 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 7: He probably wants to win for Redcliff and so his 147 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 7: own supporters. So yeah, mate, I obviously know what it's 148 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 7: like to. 149 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 1: Play under him. 150 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 8: He'll have them ready to go. But yeah, I can't 151 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 8: answer that. 152 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Broncos, they're not thinking that they have underachieved. 153 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: Said they're unlucky in a number of games this year 154 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: and have remained confident the whole season, even heading into 155 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: the last sort of month or two. Every interview we're fine, 156 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: we're going to make the finals. Don't I don't see 157 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 1: it that way. But they seem to really have just 158 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 1: just been in this cocoon where they have the ultimate 159 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: belief that they are going to make finals and they 160 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: haven't underachieved this year. How do you guys see it? 161 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 5: Of course, if they don't play finals footy, they've under 162 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 5: a check if you can sugarcoat at all you like 163 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 5: and have the the positive energy or whatever they're trying 164 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 5: to exhibit there. But if they don't make the finals, 165 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 5: having gone so close to winning the premiership last year, 166 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 5: it's a massive failure. It's not even close. It's a 167 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 5: huge failure if they don't make the finals, and I 168 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 5: can't see them do it. Obviously, this week they play 169 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 5: the Dolphins and then they play what Melbourne next week 170 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 5: and Melbourne will probably be full strength, have arrested a 171 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 5: stack of players. So I think this year will be 172 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 5: a failure for the Broncos. 173 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 4: If they don't make the finals. It's a right off season. 174 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 4: At the beginning of the year, a lot of very 175 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 4: good judges, retired champion players had the Brisbane Broncos winning 176 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 4: the premiership. Now there's been a variety of reasons that 177 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 4: have conspired, key injuries in key positions, to name the 178 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 4: most important one. But for them to not make the 179 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 4: aid off the back of making that Grand Final and 180 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 4: the run that they went on with the roster that 181 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 4: they've got, it's an abject failure. I do like the 182 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 4: fact that they're a little bit cheeky tongue in cheeks 183 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 4: sledging the Dolphins. Dolphins don't like to be referred to 184 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 4: as Redcliffe Gordon. They've done a Kevy said it after 185 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 4: the game, Yes exactly, Kevy started. 186 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 3: But it's always been called Redcliffe Dolphins for seventy five 187 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 3: years and in Redcliffe Dolphins are trying to stop red 188 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 3: Cliff your name. 189 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 2: But that's good. 190 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 3: But that's what you want, like you want it to 191 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 3: be a proper rivalry, right, I know. 192 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: He makes me Kevy, but if they don't make the fine, 193 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: he'd be disappointed. It's a it's a shocking failure. 194 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 2: YEA. 195 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, well well look and they're injuries, but every club 196 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 3: gets injuries. I reckon they would have certainly eyed off 197 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 3: the top four and they have a real shot. And 198 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 3: then now you see where Penrith are out in Melbourne, 199 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 3: you would think if they were in the top four, 200 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 3: they would be the side that you know people would 201 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 3: be liking. So, for one reason or another, young group, 202 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 3: they didn't manage expectations. I don't think as well as 203 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 3: what they should have. But it'd be disappointed. But they 204 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 3: must know something that we don't know. They're confident they're 205 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 3: getting there where I've got my fingers crossed. 206 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 4: They're a bit of Bradley Charles Stubs going on here, 207 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,199 Speaker 4: a coach whisper somewhere, been talking about it. 208 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: Almost hear the players and Kevy talk. It's like I'm 209 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: listening to Bradley Stubbs. But you know what, I love 210 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: the confidence. I love the belief at this stage because 211 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: they need it. It's the only way to approach it. 212 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: Let's hope they turn that confidence into results for their sake. 213 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: Toby Sexton was always confident. He was part of Camera 214 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: Serado's plans as the Bulldogs prepare for their first finals 215 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: campaign in eight years. 216 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 9: Cameron's pretty honest with me and he's always honest with 217 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 9: where I'm at, and he made it pretty clear to 218 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 9: me that I get my chance somewhere along the line. 219 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 9: So it was just about getting all the little basics 220 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 9: right in my game playing cup and I've never been 221 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 9: to this part of the year where I'm going to 222 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 9: be playing finals footy, So I think that in itself 223 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 9: is pretty cool to think of. And the team's kind 224 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 9: of started to click as the years going on, and 225 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 9: it's going to be a big game. Both teams are 226 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 9: playing good footy at the moment, mainly got strike all 227 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 9: over the park and both teams got big support base 228 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 9: as well, So hoping a big crowd at a Core 229 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 9: on the weekend, and yeah, it's going to be pretty 230 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 9: cool to. 231 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: Play in front of Toby Sexton. What a season he 232 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: is having for the Bulldogs from reserve grades to one 233 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,439 Speaker 1: of the inform halves in the competition, leading his signed 234 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: into their first finals in eight years. Does this mean 235 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: that the Bulldogs are going to lock him down? Have 236 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: we heard any rumors or murmurs that they are trying 237 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: to secure him, secure him any services? 238 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think they do. I think they want to 239 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 5: lock him down. Obviously he's sprung out of the box 240 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 5: a little bit because at the start of the season 241 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 5: he was behind Drew Hutchinson and you ain't really sure 242 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 5: his career was probably at the crossroads at the start 243 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 5: of the year, but the Bulldogs were patient brought him 244 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 5: in and he's not an outstanding job. Obviously, he's a 245 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 5: free agent come November one, but I think you'll find 246 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 5: the Bulldogs will try and tie him down before then 247 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 5: on a probably a two year contract. They've got young 248 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,839 Speaker 5: Mitchell Woods waiting in the wings who they've got high, 249 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 5: high hopes for, and I really think that you know, 250 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 5: they went after Jerome Lewie. They wanted to sign Jerome 251 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 5: Leui before he went to the West Tigers, and I 252 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 5: think this saw the position where they identified they had 253 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 5: to go to market for. But Toby Sexton's form over 254 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,559 Speaker 5: the last two months has forced a shift in the 255 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 5: Bulldog's mindset and you know, I think he'll be there 256 00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 5: long term. 257 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 4: He's a cracking story. In his testament, did the saying 258 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 4: that you'd never give up because he was an Australian 259 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 4: schoolboys half back, highly regarded, brought into the Gold Coast 260 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 4: Titan system was going so well and they saw so 261 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 4: much potential that they actually let Jamal Fogeti go and 262 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 4: he's went and signed with the canber Raiders and Taby 263 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 4: was fast tracked into the NRL and he had some challenges. 264 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 4: He had his strong points in attack, but he also 265 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 4: had some defensive deficiencies. Ultimately, he was moved on from 266 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 4: the Titans. Canterbury saw something and thought they'd give him 267 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 4: an opportunity. Since he's been in that side breath they've 268 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 4: won eleven out of thirteen games, which is a phenomenal 269 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 4: back half of the season run. And they began the year, 270 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 4: as Mix said, with Drew Hutcheson. But Sexton's combination with 271 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 4: Burton it just continues to grow and his role in 272 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 4: the side has helped unlock Burton's running game. He's always 273 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 4: had that kicking game, but it has helped Matt and 274 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 4: Burton take his game to a more simple and better level. 275 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: He was always going to be the best partner for 276 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: Burton and from day wise, because he's a genuine half. 277 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: Hutcherson wasn't. He's a running half lot slower, not so 278 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: much a ball playing half either. Sexton was always he 279 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: had a bit of spark about him. His kicking game 280 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: was always good. He needed to run the ball a 281 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: little bit more, but he was an organizer and he 282 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: had a bit of speed too, so he can create numbers, 283 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: which therefore opens it up for his outside men kick 284 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: out and the like. So it was just a matter 285 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 1: of him finding his best. You know, it's a good 286 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: lesson for a lot of clubs not to burn your 287 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: young halves. You know, these young halves, and we see 288 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 1: a lot they burst onto the scene and they an't 289 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: go so well after a while because they're only new 290 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: one into first grade. It's a lot harder and it 291 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: takes time. You normally blossoms are half mid to late twenties, 292 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: sometimes in the thirties. We see it these days. 293 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 2: We'll have look at all the old halfbacks. 294 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: Now that's my point. Whereas sometimes you know, we see 295 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: clubs like with Sexton, you know, well he's no good, 296 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: he's on the scrap heap. And then lucky for Gus 297 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 1: and to give him that opportunity to sort of, you know, 298 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 1: refine himself, refine himself, regained that confidence and he's back. 299 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 1: He never lost it. It's just that you lose your 300 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 1: confidence in your belief there for a pew of time. 301 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: A lot of halves get burnt that way. 302 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 2: And Tommy did. That happened to him the Tommy he 303 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: was a great young player. 304 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 3: And then Locke said he was going to be the 305 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 3: future of the club and then all of a sudden. 306 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: Jake Clifford, it happens a lot. You've got to be 307 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: real patient with your sevens. All right, big news, Teddy 308 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: wants a new deal at the Roosters. Look, I don't 309 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: know how long he's looking for. He deserves it, but 310 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,439 Speaker 1: whether Uncle Nick agrees with that or not, this is 311 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,599 Speaker 1: an interesting one because Teddy's the hero. He's one of 312 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: the best players at the club. He's ultra consistent, ultra reliable. 313 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: Any club would want him, and he wants to be 314 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: a Rooster for life. How do we see this panning out? 315 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's an interesting one. Obviously, he's got twelve months 316 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 5: left on his current contract. In I don't think he's 317 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 5: going to be able to command a two or three 318 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 5: year deal at the Roosters. I think if I'm the Roosters, 319 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 5: I'll be trying to extend him out for twelve months 320 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 5: and then playing it year by year. At this stage 321 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 5: with James Tedesco, because he's still one new deal, well 322 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 5: it's two more years breath, So he's got twelve months 323 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 5: left on his current contract and then you can have 324 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 5: that conversation this time next year as well. 325 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 8: And go again. 326 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 5: So it's not a matter of going year by year 327 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 5: in that sense, because you're doing it two years ahead. 328 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: So I don't disagree with you. It just reminds me 329 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: of Adam Reynolds or the Bunnies, you know. And not 330 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: that it's a bad thing, and not that I would 331 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 1: think that they shouldn't do that. I tend to think 332 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: it's a good idea as well. But the player doesn't always, 333 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: you know. And this is where it could get tricky 334 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: is if Teddy does know I want security, I deserve 335 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: it the player that I am. That's where it gets. 336 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 3: But then you look at people like Joey marn who 337 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 3: that's leaving Joey Swali that and then they're probably living 338 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 3: because they want to play number one. I mean, so 339 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 3: there's the balance in you know, he's a legend, He's 340 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 3: going to go down as one of the greatest ever roosters. 341 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 3: You know, do you hold him too long and then 342 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 3: lose lose one of those other guys. 343 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 4: Well, they already have gord to eras because it's cost 344 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 4: and it's cost and Joseph Suley and Joseph Mano will 345 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 4: go over and have a cameo in Japanese rugby. I 346 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 4: think he comes back Joseph Marnho most likely in the 347 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 4: middle of next season. But in relation to Teddy, if 348 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 4: they go on a run and they win the premiership 349 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 4: and he's in the form that he's in now, I 350 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 4: think he earns an additional season. But to your point, 351 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 4: break if he does decide that. 352 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 2: Is he there next year? 353 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 4: Yes, he's there next year, right, and he's the captain 354 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 4: of the club. 355 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: But if he does, Devil's advocate. 356 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 3: The way he plays, he's always on the ball, he's 357 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 3: running so many meters, there's going to be a day 358 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 3: where he falls off the cliff, like and you just 359 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 3: lose your legs and you lose your speed, a bit 360 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 3: like Clint Gutherson, like he's been so good for paramatter 361 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 3: you're watching the other night and Eastern Saler will just 362 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 3: just when they're in and it's not because they just 363 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 3: burn out, like they just burn out because of how 364 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 3: they've played. 365 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: If you're nied Politis, then you're not offering him a 366 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: long deal, you're just giving him the extra year. 367 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 3: I would shame respect. I say, can we talk halfway 368 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 3: through next year and see how you're feeling as well? 369 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 2: I like that. 370 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 4: I like that play. But at the same time, where 371 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 4: it could he like it? Where the final about mate, 372 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 4: Where it could get interesting is struggling clubs would look 373 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 4: at a James Tedesk everything is achieved in the game, 374 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 4: the fact that he's a leader, and they might think that, 375 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 4: you know what, we could actually really utilize. Well, that's 376 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 4: what I mean. So if someone comes in and decides 377 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 4: like the Roosters won't be he's the Rooster's best paid 378 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 4: player at the moment, I don't think he will be 379 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 4: beyond that. 380 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: Who could come? Oh, mate, I know it's a bit 381 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: of a speculation, but well. 382 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 4: The Tigers did previously. They've obviously got a fallback now 383 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 4: and during bullet so they won't be. But when Benji 384 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 4: first got the Generators did reach out. He did reach 385 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 4: out to Scale and they working for a homecoming. 386 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 5: You mentioned the Dragons and Clink Otherson. It's another likely lends. 387 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 5: But if he hit the open market, he's the perfect 388 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 5: player for what shapes and they'd give him a min 389 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 5: dolls for over three years for sure. 390 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: I know it's a spicy conversation, but I don't see 391 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: him leaving a great relationship with Nick and Nick always 392 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: finds away with his players. You know, I think that 393 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: he would take that one year and be happy. 394 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: Minchello moved to the we did. 395 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean like, yeah, you can keep him around 396 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 3: and you know, like and and then that will. 397 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 2: Be the deal. 398 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 4: I'm with you, brother, I find it hard to see 399 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 4: Teddy in any of. 400 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: The temptation could be there. 401 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 402 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: Interesting, all right, now, hoo's what's the plan with Valandi's 403 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: and is it the player agents? 404 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 9: Yeah? 405 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: This is interesting. 406 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 4: So obviously we've spoken on this show hell of a 407 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 4: lot about the fact that player agents look after players, 408 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 4: and then a lot of them also look after coaches. 409 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 4: In the case of Isaac Mosis, I think he might 410 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 4: have up to half a dozen coaches that he negotiates 411 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 4: their affairs for who will be in head coaching positions 412 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 4: next season. But the NRL are undergoing a big review 413 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 4: and in all likelihood they could bring in some sweeping 414 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 4: reform and change which will mean that no more can 415 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 4: agents manage the affairs of players and also manage the 416 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 4: affairs of coaches, So you'll need to just be one 417 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 4: or the other. But there will be a clear divide. 418 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: I think that's a good thing. We've been talking about 419 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: this for a while, and you know, it does get 420 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: a bit tricky there when I think when agent have 421 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: got too many coaches at too many clubs and players 422 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: in those clubs, it is a tricky one. How do 423 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: you guys, You guys are okay with this? 424 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 2: I think it's a lot of time. 425 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 3: I just think the clubs will probably be clapping their 426 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 3: hands because then they know that they can make a 427 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 3: decision on the coach without getting players upset. 428 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: Well, the agents fight it, do you know? 429 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 4: Well, the optics of it have never looked great, and 430 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 4: it's obviously there's some politics involved in it. I think 431 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 4: Peter Blandis is smart the way that he's trying to 432 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 4: approach it. He's gone to a lot of the senior 433 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 4: agents and spoken to them. He said, I want to 434 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 4: work with you guys, and I want to help improve 435 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 4: your image. Is that what you'd like to do as well? 436 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 4: They've said yes, So everybody's on the same page. It's 437 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 4: just a matter of actually implementing it. And where they've 438 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 4: got to be careful is it can't just be a 439 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 4: little bit of a paper shuffle where okay, well he's 440 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 4: not looking after coaches anymore, but now his cousin or 441 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 4: his uncle, or his brother or his mates. It's got 442 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 4: to be fair to in better. They will have to 443 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 4: put some serious parameters to ensure that it is well. 444 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: It's kind of interesting because not many agents would just 445 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: go and and represent coaches, and then they can't and 446 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 1: they sort of isolate themselves from the players. So agents 447 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: now will have to make a call whether they manage 448 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: coaches or they manage the players. So there will probably 449 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 1: be specialists. Agents for coaches. 450 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 5: Don't have to be because you know, there's a lot 451 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 5: obviously a lot more players than there are coaches. So 452 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 5: if I don't know if there'd be too many agents 453 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 5: willing to sacrifice their playing group to look. 454 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 4: After the coaches necessarily need agents. I mean coaches negotiating 455 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 4: with the players and CEOs and people from all walks 456 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 4: of life every single day. In my opinion, I'm not 457 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 4: sure coaches need I used to think no, but now 458 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 4: that I do represent a coach, I've got Willie Peters 459 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 4: over in the Super League. But especially if you're dealing 460 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 4: with Super League and the NRL and you've got a 461 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 4: few things going on, it's hard for the actual coach 462 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 4: to do it. 463 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 1: When they're so busy as well, and then there's a lot, 464 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 1: a lot of moving parts that go with it. I 465 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: think they they probably could, but it's not as simple 466 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:06,199 Speaker 1: as what people think an interesting one to watch this 467 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: space doing no word from SOUS or the NRL on 468 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: the Latrell situation. 469 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 4: Yea, the silence has been deafening from South Sydney, and 470 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 4: I actually think it's quite damning if you go back 471 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 4: to when the Bunnies sacked Jason Demetriou and Blake solely 472 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 4: came on this very program. He answered every question and 473 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 4: Blake's well respected within the game. Plenty of people think 474 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 4: that he's a top quality operator. Where I think he's 475 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 4: been badly exposed here is the fact that he's just 476 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 4: gone under the dinner and we haven't seen or heard 477 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 4: from anybody. We're now up to day sixteen of this 478 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 4: Latrell Mitchell case and he has brought the game into disrepute. 479 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 4: The photograph has brought the game into disrepute, and the 480 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 4: silence is still ongoing. Now Blake is trying to hide 481 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 4: behind red tape and employing some diversion tactics, saying, oh, 482 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 4: now we've got to wait for the NRL and we 483 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 4: can't do this. One can't do that, that's garbage. I 484 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 4: think it'll be released tomorrow morning, Gordy, and it will 485 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 4: be that Latrell is suspended for one game and he 486 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 4: receives a twenty thousand dollars fine. Now South's on top 487 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 4: of that. They've talked tough, right, They've had reading in 488 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 4: the newspapers saying they could you know, two hundred and 489 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 4: fifty thousand. 490 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: Dollars that's not going to happen. 491 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 4: Well, I think they're going to give him a significant fine. 492 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,439 Speaker 2: That's the most you can get fined as a player, 493 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 2: isn't it. 494 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 4: Yes, most of it. Brave crucially will be suspended. 495 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: And the crucial one as well was the suspension. When's 496 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: that going to be served? 497 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's still to be determined. But if it 498 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 4: is going to be this year, then South's medical team 499 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 4: will have to provide documented evidence that Latrell is fit 500 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 4: and that he would be available to play in round 501 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 4: twenty seven for it to be served this year. 502 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 3: Otherwise he's a training running every day and you see 503 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 3: him under the cameras because otherwise you went off a 504 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 3: million dollar player there, you wouldn't do it. To someone 505 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 3: you know, like pain has has the same injury. He's 506 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 3: out there running because he's a chance of playing, so 507 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 3: you think he'd be a training and he'd begun. 508 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: It doesn't long he's playing it at the moment looking 509 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: at the footage. But the r LPA say that it 510 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: doesn't matter whether he trains or not. Is that or 511 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 1: whether he's fit or not? Is that right or not? 512 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 4: They run the game. 513 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: But isn't that what Clint Newton said? 514 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 4: Probably, I don't know. I don't pay that much attention. 515 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 4: But look, the NRL runs a game. The NRL make 516 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 4: the rules, and the NRL can adjudicate, given the circumstances, 517 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 4: on what they feel as a fair and reasonable punishment. Yes, 518 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 4: the rlp A have a voice and they deserve a 519 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 4: seat at the table, but they can't be dictating to 520 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 4: the NRL that it doesn't matter if he trains or not. 521 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 4: Of course it matters if he trains. If he can't train, well, 522 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 4: he can't play. So therefore it isn't worth. 523 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 3: They'll open up Pandora's box because then a player will 524 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,719 Speaker 3: come back up for six weeks and they're throwing him 525 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 3: in there. 526 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 2: And then if I get injured. 527 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: Crawls were saying last night, just do do what's right, 528 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: you know, by not only the club but the player. 529 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: You know, if you make mistakes, you take you caunt 530 00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: of ability. You know, you might have to take a 531 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: few steps backwards to set the standards at you club, 532 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: you know, because every player's got to be trud the 533 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: same and every player's got to set the standard, and 534 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: every player has to do the best they can forassity Rabbit. 535 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 1: Is there anyone that you play not just bringing up 536 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: a bloke to miss one game next year, Wendalls to 537 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: make a statement is a big thing. 538 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 3: Wendall Salder was playing another coat. It was two year 539 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,679 Speaker 3: ban and a lot of money, Like I think it 540 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 3: was over seven hundred and fifty thousand. I would take this. 541 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 3: I would go and I apologize, say thank you so much. 542 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 4: You make a great point. God Wendell paid. Wendall paid 543 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 4: the heavy. 544 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: The ultimate pross possible. Right. 545 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 4: Let's go back to the Melbourne storm and the way 546 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 4: that they handled the situation When it was Cameramunster and 547 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,479 Speaker 4: Brandon Smith in front of the cameras, they apologized. They 548 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,479 Speaker 4: were made to ring ex players and say that they 549 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 4: were sorry that they brought the club into disrepute and 550 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 4: all the legends had a bad look. 551 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 8: That is the best of the game. 552 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 5: Look the when the one was a foul drug test, right, 553 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 5: But the best comparison is the Melbourne Storm, which wasn't 554 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 5: that long ago, where they came out in front of up, 555 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 5: owned it and move done. I think that's what all 556 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 5: the frustration is because had they done that from day 557 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 5: one or as soon as possible, we wouldn't be sitting 558 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 5: here talking. 559 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: And everyone makes mistakes, everyone, Dad and all of us, 560 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 1: all of us and even all the fans. If he 561 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: just said, you don't what I stuffed up, I promise 562 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: I won't do it again. I'm on my last warning. 563 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: You know I made a mistake. It's as simple as that. 564 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: And I love the game, and I feel on myself. 565 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: I've let my family down. Everyone goes, you know what, 566 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 1: He's owned it, move on. 567 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 4: And this is where the leadership of the club, Brave 568 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 4: and Blake solely specifically, have totally filed Latrelle because by 569 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 4: remaining silent, not supporting him yesterday after in front of 570 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 4: the board, not fronting the cameras, hiding behind red tapes, 571 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 4: ed him out tur where they've let him down. They're 572 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 4: not showing him strong leadership in this instance. 573 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 8: He's an adult. 574 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 5: He can come out, he can do his own he 575 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 5: can come out and own it. He doesn't need the 576 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 5: I'm saying, he doesn't need the club to hold his hand. 577 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 5: He can put his hand up. He can front the cameras. 578 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 5: He's not He's not a rookie here. 579 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 8: This is a seed the cameras. 580 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 2: How do you think that a player in. 581 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 5: The game, the highest paid player at the club, he 582 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 5: should be front of the cameras. 583 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 4: Do you think it was a good look for the Bunnies. No, 584 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 4: I think they just dragged on sixteen nights. What happened 585 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 4: yesterday were the good son. 586 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 8: Not at all. 587 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 5: But I don't think that we talk about accountability. I 588 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 5: don't think this is all the club's fault. Latrell should 589 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 5: be manned like, should be able to front up and 590 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 5: own the moment. It doesn't need it doesn't need the 591 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 5: club to tell him to own the moment. He should 592 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 5: be owning it. 593 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 4: Maybe if the club had taken Siam Burgess's advice twelve 594 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 4: months ago, they might not be in this position. 595 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: Fair cool, all right now? Kem Murray, Judiciary fail. We 596 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: kind of picked this last night. 597 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 2: You know, we all. 598 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: Thought, well not all of us, myself and Gordy certainly 599 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: didn't think it was I don't think he's great too. 600 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: We also thought he'd probably lose if he went to 601 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: the judiciary, which he did, but the journals were pretty 602 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: they were pretty strong against us on this one. 603 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 5: Thoughts on this, Yeah, I think they've got that right. 604 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,919 Speaker 5: That was Tyson Frizzl's basically motion. He's not going anywhere 605 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 5: and tackle. He's well held Cam Murray. Obviously he gets 606 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 5: that timing all wrong. I think the referee and the 607 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 5: judiciary panel have got that one right. I can't believe 608 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 5: he thought it. I just didn't think he was any 609 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 5: chance of winning that. Obviously. We're two games left in 610 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 5: the season. As a bit of a hail Mary played 611 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 5: for the rabbit Oz, you'll miss the test match most 612 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 5: likely for the Kangaroos at the back end of the year. 613 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 5: But you know, Tyson Frazzell didn't finish that game, doesn't 614 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 5: play this week in the must win game for Newcastle. 615 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 8: I think it's right. 616 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 4: Disagree strongly Mick Fair. He's flat out bursting a grape 617 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 4: with that. There was minimal force in that. 618 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 8: He's not playing a game for Newcastle. 619 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 4: We're not doctors, so we don't know his history in 620 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 4: relation to that space. Right, Look that force the amount 621 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 4: of force for Cameron. I thought the sinbitting on with 622 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 4: these plays. I thought the sin bitting was totally sufficient. 623 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 4: I can accept, yes, that he gets a charge, but 624 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 4: to be suspended I think that's. 625 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 8: Why blush on a player that's not movie. 626 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 4: It's Cameron Murray. Mate, He's not a dirty player. Yes 627 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 4: to you, right, I will give it to you. He 628 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 4: has gone in and he has made contact with the head, 629 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 4: but it was so minimal. I am starting that that 630 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 4: he's going to suspended. 631 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 5: How is that minimal of a guy as tough as Frazel. 632 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 5: I'm able to finish the game and can't play for 633 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 5: Newcastle on a must win game. 634 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 8: How is that minimal contact? 635 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 4: We're looking through a different lenses me. 636 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: You might have to go and agree to disagree. What's 637 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 1: the latest on Guffo and Madison at Paramatta Gufo? 638 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 4: This is an interesting one because Paramatta plays Saint George 639 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:35,159 Speaker 4: Lawara this week. RCG, in all likelihood will end up 640 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 4: at the Dragons next season. The Dragons haven't formally tabled 641 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 4: an offer yet, but I think that'll only be a 642 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,199 Speaker 4: matter of days before it arrives. But the Dragons are 643 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 4: also keen on Clint Gutheson. I don't think Paramatta will 644 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 4: want that to happen because he's the leader of at 645 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 4: that club. I think he's been the figurehead who's actually 646 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 4: held that side together this season in what's been extremely 647 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 4: testing circumcis answers, and if they were to lose Guth 648 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 4: I think it really could be. 649 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: Jason Royle's only a couple of days ago. He says 650 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: that he's not going anywhere. He's very confident we want 651 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: him at the club, and he's very confident he'll be 652 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:16,719 Speaker 1: He'll be at the club and going nowhere else well. 653 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,719 Speaker 4: But other clubs can come in. The Dragons can make 654 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 4: an offer as of November, they can param Adam make 655 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 4: an extension. 656 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: I didn't ask him about that. He just was very 657 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 1: Adam and he was going to be there. 658 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 5: I've spoken with his management about the potential for extended 659 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 5: very early early doors, but it was about clearing the 660 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 5: suggestion up that they may not want him next year. 661 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 5: They've disbuiled data and they've intimated they want to keep 662 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 5: him long term. Interesting thing will be is what position 663 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 5: he plays next. 664 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 4: Year And that's where I reckon they've insulted him and 665 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 4: disrespect him a little bit. 666 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 2: Mick. There's been stories in the. 667 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 4: Paper about perhaps they take the captaincy off in Blaze Telungi, 668 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 4: prior to signing with the Penrith Panthers, was offered the 669 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 4: fullback spot. There's been talked that they're going to have 670 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 4: a crack at Ryan. 671 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 8: Papane from Penrith to who's going to. 672 00:28:56,680 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 4: Play In all likelihood, Gothey could well end up in 673 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 4: the sense of Sneakthos lost it as a fullback. 674 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 8: I don't think he's going to play in the centers, sooops. 675 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 5: I think there might be a position or switch potentially 676 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 5: as in a. 677 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: Roman role, roaming role. 678 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 8: What positions at thirteen? Yeah, he's going to play lock potentially. 679 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 3: Wow, Yeah, I think get him closer to the ball. 680 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 3: I think fullback's a young man's position. 681 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 4: What he's saying. Potentially, so they're going to bench their captain. 682 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 5: I'm just telling you, like the potentially that's going to 683 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 5: be received Roman role, could play thirteen, he can play 684 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 5: on the ball. That Dylan Brown Mitch Moses on the ball. 685 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 5: If you don't know what Roman his hoops, I can't 686 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 5: help you out. 687 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:46,719 Speaker 4: I know what. I'm just finding it incredible right that 688 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 4: they're going to make their captain a bench player and. 689 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 2: Give him a roaming role. 690 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 4: I don't think that's going to go down. 691 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 1: To I have to ring up. 692 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 2: You need to meet your hoops. 693 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: Tonight a huge night of boxing exclusive to make the event 694 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: in Pete Beddell and Sean Porter are standing by at 695 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: the sold out ICC. 696 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 10: Yes, thanks Braith.

He's on 703 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 10: he stars on the rise. How does he go tonight? 704 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 11: He's still on the rise. And as we were just 705 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 11: talking off air, he's always going to be in a 706 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 11: very challenging fate. He's going to be looked at as 707 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 11: the fside guy, but he's going to gives Cohen's big game, 708 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 11: can box, can move great, stiff strong jab because it's 709 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 11: a fifty fifty faith and. 710 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 10: Another good fight on this card.

Zarafas Michael Zarafa's probably 715 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 11: the most entertaining guy in Australia. I think he's gonna 716 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 11: handle Tommy almost with no problem. Listen, Tommy's been around 717 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 11: the block more enough times now, it's probably time for 718 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 11: him to hang it up after this one. 719 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: I think this could be in front. 720 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 10: You enjoy the action tonight.
