00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 3: With that, mate, No, who cares.

8
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 3: My message Pressto reckoned a month ago, just before his suspension.

9
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 3: He was like, yeah, bloody, he only lives up the road.

10
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: Bloody.

11
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 3: I THO keenurs come on? And then and I was like,

12
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 3: he's keen to go on. Sometimes you get the vibe

13
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,959
Speaker 3: where someone's not yea, Presto, mate, let's get over, let's

14
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,519

15
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 3: earth had just ended and Presto had gone underground.

16
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: Or suspensions do that?

17
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, well I don't know if they do. And then

18
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 3: he he must be you must be a hard blow

19
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 3: to date.

20
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think I text my misses a bit better

21
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: than I've got back to you.

22
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 3: So I was gonna say, if you're better than doing that,

23
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 3: because she would have left you pretty.

24
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: Quick if I tear what YouTube blokes in the same room. Wow,

25
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: I mean I remember the day Bo, what you was

26
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: that made both for manly you and yeah.

27
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, Brook, you over your bulldog's day. Mark. Yeah, he

28
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 3: come on off the bench and you sub someone off

29
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,919
Speaker 3: quite quickly too. They must have blown out of steam.

30
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 3: Joey Simpson, Nah, I think Ray might have gone to

31
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 3: the middle.

32
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 2: And then I moved into the.

33
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: Of course, and your parents were sitting next to me.

34
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: That was a weird thing. Yeah, I'm in there watching

35
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,279
Speaker 1: and then I heard him. Your mum must have mentioned

36
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: your name and I looked over and someone told me, oh,

37
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: that's Jacobs. Yeah, played well too. He did play well.

38
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:39,759
Speaker 1: He played really really good.

39
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 3: Didn't didn't break any tackles.

40
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 2: It was a tough day, but you guys prettle bit

41
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 2: of a score on us.

42
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: But isn't it funny how far the club has come.

43
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: I remember that that first day it was like Ciro's.

44
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: It was Siro's first game. He charged with all this

45
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: hope and I thought you guys were strong in the

46
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: first twenty minutes, but you just sue the combination. They

47
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: hadn't form like Berdo and Villi Army were oil and water.

48
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: They couldn't get their combination going. But usually come a

49
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: long way to see them.

50
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 2: Jacob, Yeah, definitely. I think the obviously we didn't start

51
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 2: too well in twenty The first game wasn't too good,

52
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: but I think the first five rounds of twenty twenty

53
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 2: three after that we actually played some half decent footy.

54
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 2: We beat Melbourne and Melbourne and that.

55
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's right.

56
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 2: Then the year kind of went downhill from there, But

57
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four and onwards it's, yeah, it's definitely gone

58
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 2: up here.

59
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: You can see like it takes people sometimes when they

60
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 3: get like a star player overt all club or like

61
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 3: a new coach and they want instant success. It's like,

62
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 3: we've got this boat, now we're going to kill it.

63
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 3: That was a bit like that year with the Dogs,

64
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 3: where it was like you guys had Foxy come over,

65
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 3: Birdo kickout and everyone was like that, they're going to

66
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 3: make an instant impact. But it takes. It takes at

67
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 3: least a couple of years to get like combinations people.

68
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 3: I think people underestimate how long it takes to actually

69
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 3: get a group to understand each other as players.

70
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, I think that twenty twenty three year it

71
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 2: was a lot of kind of learning new systems. Obviously

72
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: some of the boys had you've been under zero at

73
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 2: Panriff but for a lot of the boys at the club,

74
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 2: there's a lot of learning the system and some kind

75
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 2: of I guess couldn't really get their heads around it.

76
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: But yeah, another year on twenty twenty four, it kind

77
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 2: of started to click. And now this year it's got

78
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 2: even better.

79
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: Jacobs and guys. It's not just even like understanding each

80
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: other's games, understanding the angles to run, how you like

81
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: to receive the ball, all those things. It's as very

82
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: simple sometimes as just catching another person's pass. I always

83
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: say a pass every playmaker's pass has. It's like a

84
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: thumb print. Everyone's just slightly different. And I remember playing

85
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: for it with Andrew for a long time and then

86
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: go to a different halt for inormation and the ball

87
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: just dips a little bit different. Other people throw at

88
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: a certain angle. All those kinds of things you've got

89
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: to get used to, you know, Hence the importance of

90
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: your school works relentlessly over and over and over.

91
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, even some hearts like catching a little bit wider

92
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 2: or closer to the rock. So just been tough sitting

93
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: on the sidelines.

94
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: I imagine I'm telling you they're missing you that that last game,

95
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: you know, forty four forty four to six, you have

96
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: that Dolphins game. I can see they're really missing you

97
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: out there. Mate. For you, what do you? What do

98
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: you do as far as when you're suspended and you're

99
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: able to run and do everything? What's it? What's the

100
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 1: typical week for you at the moment.

101
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm definitely missing being out there and I

102
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 2: can't wait to get back when you got one more

103
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 2: game now. But yeah, because it's quite a long stint.

104
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 3: I didn't think they gave you enough suspension.

105
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:31,679
Speaker 2: Anyway.

106
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, the eye gouging.

107
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 2: Because it was quite a long stin kind of been

108
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 2: like a little mini preseason, I guess. So the boys

109
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 2: got a couple of days off during the by round

110
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 2: last week, but I've been in most days training hard

111
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 2: and Travy Tumar.

112
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 3: Oh it's bloody tough, isn't it. Rehab rehab trainings is

113
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 3: a lot harder. I mean, sorry, suspension training overheal training.

114
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 3: When you're not trained with the main group a lot

115
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 3: of the time because they're playing, it is to they

116
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 3: flogged out.

117
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: They might match them, so like it's pretty much like

118
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 2: planning getting the same columber as you're doing the game.

119
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 2: But you're just doing like.

120
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 3: Aimless running and I put it up a little bit

121
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 3: closer to the Yeah there, I'm really on the bit.

122
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: My radio sensibility is kicking a big game against Paramounta

123
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: two traditional rivals up against each other. You know a

124
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: lot about the history of these two clubs up against

125
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: each other.

126
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: In the eighties.

127
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, a huge and the massive battle the including.

128
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 1: The fact that when Paramuter won the first premiership in

129
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: nine to eighty one, the fans burnt the old Cumberland

130
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: Oval green Sea into the ground. So that's when they

131
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: had to build so where Paramount of Stadium was now

132
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 1: it's so combank. Yeah there used to that used to

133
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: be a ground called Cumberland Oval, had a green sea

134
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: in there and it was it was run down, it

135
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: was like decrepit and when they won them their first

136
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 1: ever competition, the fans just burnt it to the ground.

137
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: Hence they had to build a new ground which which

138
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: would become Paramouter Stadium and now Combink. But in that

139
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: about five I think it was six years, they had

140
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 1: to share the ground more over with the Bulldogs. Yeah,

141
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 1: so you had the two powerhouse sides playing out of belmore.

142
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 3: So it's like what it's like Penrith and Power this

143
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 3: year right come back? Yeah, Wow, Wow. Who would you

144
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 3: say is the biggest rivalry, like, because it feels like

145
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 3: Bulldogs have a rivalry like everyone.

146
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of clubs, but I'd say probably Big Power.

147
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 3: Yeah.

148
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,479
Speaker 2: And then obviously Good Friday was always a big game.

149
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: That's a big it's a Jacob. It's such a great club.

150
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,119
Speaker 1: And I'm saying that because you're here, say the people,

151
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: it's such a great club. When the Newcastle Knights coming

152
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: in ninety eight, we stole your players, we stole your coaches,

153
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 1: We tried to steal your culture, everything about it, like

154
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: the Newcastle Knights, the foundations of that club. You know,

155
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: we're if you had an architecture looking after but we

156
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 1: had the same architect as you, Blake, So we tried

157
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 1: to copy that culture and it's it. And there's certain

158
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 1: there's certain things I always find about a Bulldogs player,

159
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: like toughness, you know, not really think about playing around

160
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: and opposition more play through short ball, playing all those

161
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: little things that I think have just stayed in the

162
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: culture of the club for such a long time. And

163
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: bellmore oval Man I tear in the nineties playing a

164
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: Bill Moore oval. It was, it was it was wild.

165
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Bellmore was incredible. I've played a couple of games,

166
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: been lucky enough to play a couple of games there now,

167
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 2: and it just seems every time we like every game,

168
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 2: next time we play at Belmo, it gets bigger and bigger.

169
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 2: There was a game there against Camber last year and look,

170
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 2: it was crazy at the stadium, but then on the

171
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 2: streets that the main street of it was going off

172
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: like crazy.

173
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you find that, Like you're a kid from

174
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 3: the northern beaches, Like you see the scenes over in

175
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 3: Belmore after you guys win and it's just like DJ's

176
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 3: in the streets, like Belmore is basically shut down. It's

177
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 3: like every week's a Grand Final like it basically it

178
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 3: looks like how Liverpool is at the moment when they

179
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 3: when they win the football, like they shut the streets down.

180
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 3: There's like flares going off, like it's insane. Is that

181
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 3: like just crazy for you being out there?

182
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 2: It is, It's crazy. It's definitely different what I've kind

183
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 2: of grown up. But then go on and get and

184
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 2: be part of it. It's so special and I say

185
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 2: it all the time, but we have the best fans

186
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 2: in the game and to make them happy. It's unreally,

187
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 2: they are.

188
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 3: A loyal fan. Like someone was telling me the other

189
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 3: day one of the boys who went to the Bulldogs

190
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 3: and then a few years later ended up leaving. He said,

191
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 3: when he went to and this is a very modern

192
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 3: take on this, when he went to the Dogs, he

193
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 3: gained like twenty thousand social media followers straight away and

194
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 3: he said when he left, they all unfollowed him. Yeah,

195
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 3: it shows how loyal these fans are, like to get

196
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 3: around their players, like the boys that are there. The

197
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 3: fans just get around you and build you up so much.

198
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 2: They support you no matter what. Yeah, they're very loyal.

199
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 2: But yeah they give your stuff, They give your presents

200
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 2: and stuff at fans honey stuff. I got given a

201
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: shirt the other day, like just at a fan signy.

202
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 2: Think it's crazy.

203
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: That's good. So that area defined by the football team

204
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways, you know, and vice versa

205
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: is the fans and the people of that community they draw,

206
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: they draw a steam soff esteem by how the football

207
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: side's going. It's just it's just insane and do you

208
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 1: know what pressure There's been a lot of tough years

209
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: with the Bulldogs and it's not nice going, you know,

210
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 1: when you've got the foot in your throat all the

211
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: time and you're scrapping away. But it's not bad sometimes

212
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: for a club to experience that, to experience a little

213
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 1: bit of time down there, because then when you rise again,

214
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 1: like new blokes have done, everyone appreciates the more you know,

215
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: and it just sends a certain buzz through the community.

216
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely for sure. Like like I was saying in

217
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, it's kind of the opposite end of

218
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 2: the spectrum. It was very very much as struggle towards

219
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 2: the back end there. We had a game against Newcastle

220
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 2: sixty six nil and that was definitely tough times. But

221
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 2: to see where we've come come from and who we're

222
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 2: at now, and then the crowds and stuff slowly built

223
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 2: up along the way, it's very special.

224
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 3: You see. Like those young blokes who like the Boys,

225
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 3: are the young fellows that went into that Penricide who

226
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 3: started winning comp like Burdo Critter, they come into a

227
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 3: team where you almost expect every year it's going to

228
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 3: come kind of easy and you're going to win a

229
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 3: Grand Final every year, Like a lot of you guys

230
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 3: at the Dogs have come in at a time where

231
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,719
Speaker 3: you understand how hard it is to not just make

232
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 3: the top eight, but to like get to a Grand final,

233
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 3: like to get to finals. Now, I imagine you boys,

234
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 3: it's something that will stop you boys being complacent, Like

235
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 3: even though he's are at the top end of the ladder,

236
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 3: you're not taking it for granted like a lot of

237
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 3: his teams can do sometimes.

238
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 2: Nah, for sure, we know we've done nothing yet, like

239
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 2: kind of learned a lot from last year. We kind

240
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 2: of went on a bit of a run there and

241
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 2: got to the finals and we kind of burnt out.

242
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 2: I guess a little bit. It wasn't really how we

243
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 2: wanted to end the year and to kind of put

244
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 2: a fire under our belly to go bigger and better

245
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 2: this year. And I think it's pretty evident with how

246
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 2: we're training and you're not getting complacent at all.

247
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: This is going to be a mega game against Earls

248
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 1: because Eels are really starting to form. You can see that, Rosies,

249
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,839
Speaker 1: all the stuff that Rosey tried to put in those

250
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: early rounds with Mitchell Moses coming back in the side,

251
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: you can see that, you know, all the things like

252
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 1: something last week, you know, Jacob looking at some of

253
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 1: their little attacking sequences and players were very very classy.

254
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: Yonge's starting to really pick up and find himself. It's

255
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: going to be a cracking game. What sort of crowd

256
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: are we expecting.

257
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 2: They're trying to beat the Good Friday crowd, which was

258
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 2: sixty five thousand. That's their goal. Well, they're doing the

259
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 2: ten dollar tickets again did on Good Friday. That's their

260
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 2: goal wherever they get there, and I'm not too sure,

261
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 2: but it would be pretty crazy to see that was

262
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: the biggest regular season crowd ever?

263
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 3: Is that at a call, wasn't it?

264
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 2: Yeah?

265
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't get like they get it at Origin

266
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 3: and Finals, but you'd always see when you watch a

267
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 3: cor on TV and you see like half one side's full,

268
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 3: the camera goes the other side, it's just completely empty.

269
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 3: That game when you just played Good Friday, that was

270
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 3: chaos A like, yeah, it was.

271
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 2: It was incredible. We kind of we kind of walked

272
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 2: out of the hotel as well as before the game,

273
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 2: we stayed at the Pullman and the Bulldogs kind of

274
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 2: organized a fan get together like, so we walked out

275
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: the hotel when the scenes were incredible, it was like

276
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 2: see your people one hundred meters worth of people just

277
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: fully bulldogs, kid it up, cheering us on. And it

278
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 2: was very cool experience as well. And we're told you

279
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 2: kind of just.

280
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: Embrace it the call walk. So what happen on day game?

281
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: Do you boys stay at the hotel near Homebush the

282
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: night before?

283
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 2: Yeah?

284
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: Okay, and then so that you're starting that tradition where

285
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: you walkers turning through the fans to the stadium.

286
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Well that was for Good Friday. We don't

287
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 2: do that every week, okay, but yeah, that was obviously

288
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 2: a big occasion and we wanted to embrace the big

289
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,719
Speaker 2: crowd and kind of get a taste of it. So yeah,

290
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 2: that was very special. And but yeah we do we

291
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 2: stay out there before games as well.

292
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: Ye right, yeah, it's a good policy. I just love

316
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 3: undercover funny, Like he's so funny for a bloke who

317
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 3: kind of like seems unassuming and very quiet, and then

318
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 3: once he gets comfortable in a group, you can't stop

319
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 3: him from talking.

320
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 2: Can't he spin a yarn? But like, honestly, I was

321
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 2: quickly say I want to give a massive shout out

322
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 2: to Maxie because he's origin Deaby. Was so good to

00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 2: see Bloody on real and yeah, so happy for him.

324
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 1: Got it wrapped for him too when Laurie put him on,

325
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: like the first was first change. Yeah, he came on.

326
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: Of course I didn't kick off to Spencer, kicked off

327
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 1: the Max. He says, I don't know what it says

328
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: more about Spencer Max but less. But he's terrific.

329
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 3: Oh man, he's such good and we were at Melbourne together.

330
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 3: But he when he heard his achilles, it was like

331
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 3: borderline retirement, like king, he was. He was so like

332
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 3: low mentally he was. He do like nine months of rehab,

333
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 3: come back first run and he just gets so much

334
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 3: pain in it again that he couldn't even like they

335
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 3: just couldn't. They just had him on a what bike

336
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 3: for so long and he was like so the physios

337
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 3: didn't even know what to do. They were like, we

338
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 3: don't know how to fix this. It's so it's actually

339
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 3: a miracle that he's even back on the field playing.

340
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 4: You know.

341
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: The other thing about Max is and everybody's different, everyone

342
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: has their different bullies. But he is a man of faith.

343
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 1: He says that all the time. For him to go

344
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: through a really difficult period like that, there must have

345
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: been times that he was questioning going, oh like you

346
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: know what I mean?

347
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, to help me or what yeah, yeah, I know

348
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 3: what you mean, I know what you mean. He's a

349
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 3: big believer. I think he gives a lot of Well

350
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 3: I've seen his partner come out even when he made

351
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 3: his day Bill and was like, obviously they're very into

352

00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,200

Speaker 2: but yeah, it was funny.

392
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 3: Streaker like he's like eight or nine? Though?

393
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 2: Is he he's fifteen?

394
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 3: Now fifteen? She's not a bad judge of I cannot

395
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 3: pick kids age anymore. I was watching these kids trained

396
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 3: down at Cholera the other day and I was watching

397
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 3: train for ages and I was like, how good are

398
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 3: these guys going? Like I thought they were under seventies

399
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 3: because they look quite big. They were like under eleven's

400
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 3: The kids are getting bigger and bigger.

401
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: Sure yeah, yeah, sure good on them.

402
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

403
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: Eating the old church talking about that before, I just

404
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: I think the only time I go to church to

405
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: these days is funerals, even weddings. I sort of way

406
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: to get there, sort of stayed head towards the back.

407
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, pretty morbid, pretty morbid thing to bring up your.

408
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: Sure, you know, as you get older, you know, as

409
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: you get older and you sort of you get off

410
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: more of the depressing sort of things. I find drinking

411
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: after a funeral is actually fun the way I wouldn't

412
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: say the word be fun. I'd probably get more of

413
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,360
Speaker 1: a shine or a buzz, like you know, they get

414
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: that sort of feeling that comes of it's hard to explore.

415
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 3: Well, I suppose, like me and pressed those age right now,

416
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 3: it's like birthdays and weddings is like the big events

417
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,719
Speaker 3: I suppose for you, Like you're done really celebrating birthdays

418
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 3: and weddings. Your only real time to get together as

419
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,679
Speaker 3: a group is funerals. So that I suppose is like

420
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 3: your weddings now.

421
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: Right, man, that's true, It's it's actually it's actually very

422
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: very true. Yeah, yeah, it is actually quite depressing. You

423
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: get there sometimes. But but I didn't mean that when

424
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: you go to twenty first or stuff there or weddings

425
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: and that you have a beer afters. But when you

426
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: go to a funeral and everyone's emotions are on edge

427
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: and things are down there. After a few beers, everything

428
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: just really starts to pack up. Well, Hence wedding crashes.

429
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 1: Wedding crashes compared to Chaz, you.

430
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:49,879

Speaker 2: but he's been really good. He's a really nice fella.

446
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 2: He's been ripping in at training and he's really can

Speaker 3: the great ice breaker.

493
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 1: I've never met him before. And then I was at

494
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: a at a pub in Brisbane. There was a long

495
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: lineup and Coopers Mate, there's bloke just out the front

496
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: of Mate out the front. He wants he wants to

497
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: know can you get him in? I looked out and

498
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: it was a little pumpkinheaded turban tine, you know.

499
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 3: Okay, So I think that was a magic round or

500
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,360
Speaker 3: something and weird, weird sort of night for Terps, dad

501
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 3: and I. It was karaoke at this bar and brizzy

502
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 3: and it also managed to come inside with sex Bow.

503
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 3: So I don't know if if you ever heard of

504
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 3: sex Bow pressed, it's a perfect and it was like

505
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 3: it's like a convention where like basically like couples and

506
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 3: just whoever's like really into that sort of thing go

507
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 3: there and at the bar when we're all doing karaoke,

508
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 3: it's like the whole of sex Bow would come into

509
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 3: this this pub and for whatever reason, I don't know

510
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 3: how it came up. I don't know if Terps had

511
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 3: been telling everyone in the thing, but they all thought

512
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 3: me and Terps were dating. All the couples in at

513
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 3: sex Bo it's.

514
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 1: A strange conclusion to reach one a northern hotel.

515
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,919
Speaker 3: But we were sitting around having a beer and then

516
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: like this guy she was asking terms like how long

517
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 3: we'd be together, and I was like what, and Turfs goes, oh,

518
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 3: like just to start coming because they're all in there,

519
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 3: and like the kinky sort of couples and terms have

520
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 3: been saying the medium been dating for like three years.

521
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was. It happened to me and Joey once.

576
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: And yeah, I was talking to Maxi King and Toby

577
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: Sex when they come on the Sunday Show about a

578
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: month or so ago, and was after the Broncos game

579
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: with a bad loss, and he said at halftime, which

580
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: you know, thirty odd thirty od neils how Siro and

581
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: he goes, mate, he was that calm. She was that calm.

582
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: In fact, he was so calm and talking about what

583
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: we had to do on the second half. He said,

584
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: we came out after half time went ashually, we can

585
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 1: turn this around and maybe be these blokes now that's yeah, yeah,

586
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: that's that's that's sort of coach. You can do that conventure.

587
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 2: We had full confidence we could have come out in

588
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 2: that second half and won the game. And I think

589
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 2: we put eighteen points on in that second half, and

590
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 2: we fully believe you could. And yeah, just the way

591
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 2: he addresses the playing group really simplifies it, dumbs it down,

592
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 2: and it was just on us to go out there

593
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 2: and do it.

594
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: What about the Raiders game?

595
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 2: That was incredible?

596
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 1: It was incredible?

597
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,000

Speaker 1: Oh wow?

600
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's considering like, how could the Raid particularly like Raiders.

601
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 3: They're in the top four, Raiders aren't. They're on a

602
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 3: team that they're out of the bottom ete and they're

603
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 3: beating you by eddy and you come back. Raiders are

604
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,080

Speaker 3: You'll have nightmares about him?

00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: What about? What about him? Before we talk about critic

636
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 1: you went into Origin camp.

637
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did. Yeah, I got the chance to go in.

638
00:25:58,280 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 2: It was really cool.

639
00:25:58,840 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 4: What was that?

640
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: What what'd you take that?

641
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? It was awesome. It was awesome to kind of

642
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 2: get to know all the boys, kind of kind of

643
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 2: soak up the experience and just.

644
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 1: Kind of learn off Hawley what a champion.

645
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was awesome. He's such an easy blot to

646
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 2: kind of talk to and he did a great job.

647
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: What about Craig Bellamy? Do you have a conversation with Craig?

648
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 2: You had a brief convert not too much, but he

649
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 2: seems really cool as well.

650
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: Let me get a bit. You come up there, shook

651
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: your hands to congratulations where you're going.

652
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 2: That's exactly what he said.

653
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the kind of guy he used.

654
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 3: I could see you now, he would love he'd love

655
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 3: to coach you, like you're right up his alley as

656
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 3: a player. But you know, I had dinner with Himole

657
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 3: last night as well, and he'd never even spoke to Craig,

658
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 3: and he said the exact same thing. He was like,

659
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 3: I didn't know how to take him or approach him

660
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 3: because I've watched him for so long and kind of

661
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,679
Speaker 3: being like he's got a bit of a scary aura. Yeah, definitely,

662
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 3: you know, like you don't know how to cop him.

663
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 3: And he said the same thing. He's like that come

664
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 3: up and he was just the nicest bloke. I imagine

665
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 3: it'd be pretty sick for like a lot of those

666
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,400
Speaker 3: boys who have never had anything to do with him

667
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 3: to it breaks down a little bit of a wall

668
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 3: because you've just been coached against him for so long.

669
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you've been coached against him, and you've also

670
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 2: kind of grown up watching him coach all his dominant teams,

671
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 2: So to kind of be able to meet him and

672
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 2: understand how he kind of works, it is pretty cool.

673
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 3: Was he very hands on? Did he get his hands

674
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 3: or did he kind of sit back like was he

675
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,239
Speaker 3: talking in video? He just like just kind of sit

676
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 3: back and just let Laurie do his thing and then

677
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 3: just chime in if you had to. Yeah, it was

678
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 3: more so he just sat back and chimed in every

679
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 3: now and then. Laurie and the assistant coaches did the thing.

680
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: Did you have the game pressod? They take you to

681
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: the game?

682
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 3: Na, So I left.

683
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 2: I was there from Tuesday to the Saturday a though,

684
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 2: and then they left to Brisbane on the Sunday morning.

685
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: So you you blokes were in there, of course for

686
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: the experience. You stand its cord. Did you do a

687
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: post against the team? Did they have you blows here?

688
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 2: Yeah? So we kind of did a couple of opposed sessions.

689
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: The weather.

690
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 2: The weather. The first couple of days was horrendous at

691
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 2: Blue Mountains, and then we actually had to move training

692
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 2: to Penriff on the fourth day just because the weather

693
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 2: was so bad and we got some sun and some

694
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 2: sun finally and we got to They did like a

695
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 2: post session against Ride and I just jumped in the

696
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 2: right side and played against him.

697
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, Yeah, when you're on the camp sometimes you

698
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,199
Speaker 1: get a whole new appreciation of the guys you play against.

699
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 1: Who did you when you went in the camp firstly

700
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: on the field, who did you look at and just

701
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: go man like, who really stood out for you?

702
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 2: Yeah? It was obviously all of the boys are pretty impressive,

703
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 2: but I think Nathan Cleary the way he goes about

704
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 2: his business is pretty special. And Isaiah how he kind

705
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 2: of addresses the group as well, and yeah, summarizes everything.

706
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 2: It's pretty cool.

707
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 1: Nathan lots of extras.

708
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, he's the last man on the field always.

709
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 3: What about like, because you said I've got so many

710
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 3: good backroll Like you were before your suspension, you were

711
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 3: being tossed up to be in the side as well,

712
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 3: you know, Angus Crichton, Liam Martin, Hudson Young was on

713
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 3: the bench, and then yourself and Dylan Lucas were kind

714
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 3: of being tossed up as well. What did you learn

715
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 3: from some of the other experience background was in there.

716
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, just how they train as well, how they prepare

717
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 2: training like Angus Kricht and he goes one hundred percent

718
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 2: at everything, which is yeah, which I actually really like it.

719
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 2: I embrace that and probably take that to my training

720
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 2: now and kind of try and make sure I do

721
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 2: that as well. Yeah, cool to see.

722
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 3: Paul Samuel Walker Apparently it's just just hate it every

723

Speaker 3: But at training. Mate, if you if if you watched

742
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:01,960

750
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:20,840
Speaker 1: Origin camp. I room with Lorry a couple of times

Speaker 2: and yeah, they're all really good fellas. And yeah, just

762
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,840

00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 2: training and their preparation and.

764
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,600

766
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,520

767
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 3: find a way to get along with him.

768
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: That Stephen Crichton, I think he has got the his

769
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: trajectory at the moment, twenty four years of age. What

770
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: he's doing, he's on the trajectory to be like a

771
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: Malma Ninger type figure for you, Boke something his leadership.

772
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: Can you just give us some insight in the leadership

773
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: day by day?

774
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll get to experience origin camp kind of see

775
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 2: where he kind of picked some stuff off Yoe and stuff,

776
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 2: And I'm getting to see him do that at Woodogs

777
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 2: in Clubland every every day. Is pretty special. The way

778
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,959
Speaker 2: he kind of connects the group through his through his words, obviously,

779
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 2: but also for his actions. Yeah, it's pretty cool to

780
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 2: be a part of.

781
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: When he first went to the club, did he walk

782
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: Did he walk in straight away just have a presence

783
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: and took leadership.

784
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think he kind of came in a little

785
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 2: bit later just because of how Penrif had gone the

786
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 2: year before. But he walked straight into an army camp.

787
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 2: And I guess we were like we had captains and

788
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 2: like our leaders read in Berdo and stuff, Kingy, but

789
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 2: then Creator at the army camp just kind of just

790
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 2: blew everyone away with how he kind of handled it all.

791
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 2: And yeah, from there it's just yeah, I guess it's

792
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 2: that aura we.

793
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 3: Had zero on the potty. Uh that year after he

794
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 3: named Cruder as captain, and he actually said that army camp.

795
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 3: He'd never even thought Creta was in contention to really

796
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 3: be captain. He was looking at Berdo and Marnie and

797
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 3: then he said that army camp when he when he

798
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 3: watched him, how he came in, how we had the group,

799
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,479
Speaker 3: how we communicated with everyone. That was when he was like, well,

800
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 3: I think credit has got to be our skipper.

801
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 2: Yeah he was. It was actually incredible to kind of

802
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 2: kind of witness it and be part of it. He

803
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 2: kind of just brought everyone together, got everyone for everything.

804
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 2: And just like I said, connection, connection, like the way

805
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 2: he connects the group. I haven't really been I haven't

806
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 2: really experienced that before. I don't I don't know really

807
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 2: how to explain it. But he understands each individual for

808
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 2: who they are and knows how to get everyone connected.

809
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: And it isn't so important like not just on the field,

810
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: not just some dressing, but even just when you're out

811
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: on the training field, that connectivity, because when you're doing fitness,

812
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: I remember, if you got good leadership out there, everyone

813
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: drags each other along, Everyone looks after each other. And

814
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: I've found a lot of times with fitness, when you

815
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 1: do fitness almost as an individual pursuit and you ignore

816
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: everyone else, it makes it ten times harder when you

817
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: actually take on the role of come on, presso let's go,

818
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: come on, coop, push, you know, Jack, come on, catch

819
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: up a little bit. It actually it actually makes everything

820
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: easier for everybody.

821
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 2: That connection. It makes everything easier, but it also holds

822
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 2: everyone accountable. I guess that just rises the intensity and

823
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 2: I guess the level of fitness. Everyone's kind of get

824
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 2: into and yeah, it's something he's done.

825
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, he seems like it seems like a bloke that

826
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 3: rarely gets tired. Like you can tell he's trained at

827
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 3: a high intensity for a long time. The difference between

828
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 3: the best teams and the worst teams is how the

829
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,959
Speaker 3: best teams react when they're tired and under fatigue, right,

830
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 3: Like the communications. The first thing that goes when anyone's tired,

831
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 3: and you can tell crit is the blow that is

832
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 3: just he drills it into himself every day when he's

833
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 3: tired in pre season, he just forces himself to talk.

834
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 3: So that's a comes habit.

835
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 2: He's constantly communicating at training or on the field like

836
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 2: it's just yeah, it's next level communication. And I think

837
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 2: that comes out on the field the way he defends.

838
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 2: I think you know that Origin most recent Origin game,

839
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 2: how he defended was pretty incredible, and I'd say it's

840
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,359
Speaker 2: up there with one of the best Origin. You depend

841
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 2: alongside you heart yeah, oh yeah too.

842
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yet he what blows me away is sometimes a

843
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: ballger pinned out and the critter and and you winger

844
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: carraz and it's two on two with them and they're

845
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 1: on the attack, attack and him it'll be over like

846
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: a thirty minute space. A lot of times, you know,

847
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 1: players will feel rightfully feel isolated. He just goes bang,

848
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: goes up there and just hits them.

849
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 2: No hesitation, doesn't panic, just back himself, which comes from

850
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,879
Speaker 2: his preparation. He does it at training so he knows

851
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 2: that when it's time to do what he has to do,

852
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:07,919
Speaker 2: he just use it backs himself.

853
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 3: It's pretty sick like going historically, going from a lot

854
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 3: of the boys that left Penrith or even back in

855
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 3: the day that you would have seen like blokes that

856
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,839
Speaker 3: used to leave like the Melbourne Storm when they had

857
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,919
Speaker 3: the Big three there. They usually go. When they signed

858
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 3: a different club on more money, people go, oh, you

859
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 3: know they're going to make a big difference, and then

860
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 3: they kind of fall off a cliff. They rarely do

861
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 3: see him get better. I don't think one of recent times,

862
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 3: like when nicka Heinz left and he wanted the Dalim

863
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 3: the next year, Like it's very rare to see him

864
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 3: leave such a good club and then go get better.

865
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 3: Whereas critics like crit is another one left Penrith off

866
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 3: the back of a couple of premierships. You and you go,

867
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 3: is he going to get better? Or is he going

868
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,479
Speaker 3: to sort of plat o out leaving such a good club.

869
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 3: But he's just gotten better and better every year.

870
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. Just I think he's put it down to his

871
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 2: work ethic, how hard he's willing to train, the amount

872
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 2: of preparation he does, the amount of a video he does. Also,

873
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 2: it's yeah, it's that elite level. And yeah, I guess

874
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 2: when he goes down in the field, that shows.

875
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: And the bloke, as far as performance is concerned, in

876
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: the last thirty months, it's not too far off him.

877
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 4: Who.

878
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: I think he's been a revelation. In fact, I think

879
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: he could. I think he could play Straight of Origin.

880
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: State of Origin now if you needed him. Was Bronson

881
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 1: Cherry Bronson, Cherry has burned. He's just Buren fantastic for

882
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 1: you blokes, great finisher, great work ethic, you know, obviously

883
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:27,880
Speaker 1: a bloke who works hard off the field.

884
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, Bronson has been awesome. Obviously, he came back

885
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 2: from Fay to time out and as soon as he

886
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 2: got to the club he just had this willingness to

887
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 2: rip in and he got he got there, he did

888
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 2: all the hard work and then I guess critic came

889
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,760
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks later and has helped him heaps

890
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 2: as well in terms of defensive movements and stuff. But yeah,

891
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 2: he's been great for us. He does a lot of

892
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,800
Speaker 2: the dirty work people don't really see at times, but

893
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 2: us players on the field do see that, and we

894
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 2: really do appreciate that. And yeah, that's pretty pretty cool

895
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 2: to have them both.

896
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,879
Speaker 3: We had just had a car a few weeks ago

897
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 3: on the potty, and you just sparked my memory of

898
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 3: what he said when you would have been there this

899
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 3: year Whence Critic came to the club, they particularly the

900
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 3: defensive movements on the edge. Zero had a system that

901
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:14,399
Speaker 3: he knew worked leaving leaving Panoris, but you guys worked

902
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 3: so hard at it for so long, but it never

903
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 3: really clicked. It wasn't until Critter came and showed you

904
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 3: guys like it actually works and showed you guys how

905
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 3: to sort of do it. Did you experience that as well?

906
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. I feel like in twenty twenty three, some

907
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 2: of us trusted the system and I was probably didn't

908
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 2: showed enough respect, I guess. And the system relies on

909
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:37,359
Speaker 2: everyone going after it and everyone kept doing their job.

910
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 2: But then when Critic came, we kept working at it,

911
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 2: and we had players buy into it at all, players

912
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 2: brought into it, and for it to work, everyone has

913
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 2: to be buying into it. And then yeah, him just

914
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 2: showing I guess outside backs that they sticked to it

915
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 2: with the process that it will it will work out.

916
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 1: So it's very honest for Josh Josh Josh Ocari gas

917
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: men were working on it, gains, but even I wasn't

918
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: sure I was going. I was just gonna it. But

919
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: he certainly he certainly turned that around a couple of

920
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,240
Speaker 1: those us. I'm gonna ask a few questions here before

921
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: I do. How's Gus going good?

922
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 2: I was good.

923
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's done. He's done a remarkable job now with

924
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 1: a number of clubs club He doesn't get credit for

925
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: the Wars. Remember he had about six months of he

926
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: went over there. He was that behind the scenes, did

927
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 1: recruiting for him and tidy a few things up in

928
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 1: their organization and left. But he had a fair impact there.

929
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 1: Does when the boys have a win? Does he ever?

930
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 1: Because what we used to do in Origin it sounds weird.

931
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 1: I find it sort of weird that players these days

932
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,839
Speaker 1: would do it, but we used to, right, everyone, let's

933
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: go get around the piano and we get a blake

934
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: pulled the piano out and we all just sit around

935
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: with with books. Gus hand out with shoot and we

00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, great tracks was for it was at least sick

941
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 2: I'd love a sing along. But it hasn't.

942
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 3: He hasn't done it.

943
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:07,800
Speaker 4: No, no not.

944
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 1: You got to get on to it. Yeah, get on him,

945
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: say Gus, come on mate, he made his You got

946
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 1: to get the piano and do some single.

947
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 2: Where did you get the piano from? That's a good question.

948
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 3: You're in Belmore. I'm pretty sure they can find it.

949
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 2: Is he is?

950
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 3: He kind of scary?

951
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 2: Oh, he's one of those guys that has that aura

952
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 2: about him some other I guess Craig Bellamy, you kind

953
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 2: of grow up in their massive figures in the game.

954
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 2: And I remember when I first met him when I

955
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 2: was I was at the Roosters at the time, and

956
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 2: he's looking to bring me able to the dogs, and

957
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 2: I remember how nervous I was walking into Jabelle's Cafe,

958
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,399
Speaker 2: which is in Bellmore there, and I was just like well,

959
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 2: it's sat down with him and feel good. Yeah, it's

960
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 2: crazy and he still has that aura to this day.

961
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 2: To be honest, I don't think that will ever change.

962
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:56,439
Speaker 1: You could give a blasts coach ninety five origin third game,

963
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 1: we're playing them up in Queensland and they'll beating us

964
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 1: at halftime, and I've beat us at full time. But

965
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: it'd been a nod serious with the Super League war

966
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: and Gus had sort of been distracted. He'd been dragged

967
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 1: from here, left, right and center. And the first two

968
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,439
Speaker 1: games that he got beid he was sort of philosophical.

969
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 1: A third game, by half time he had an half

970
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: and just got there and just went around the group

971
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 1: and just came right out you know what I do?

972
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: He goes, I just look at this group?

973
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 2: Is it?

974
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 1: And just took everyone and he went to a million

975
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: and goes, mate, have you ever fucking done a two

976
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: on one? You're fucking out there, you're going through it's

977
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 1: a fuck on two and one, and to give it

978
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 1: early and he just goes round, just giving it to Blakes.

979
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: And he got to one of the players last and

980
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: he goes, and you last, He said, yous mate, I

981
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 1: sit there every fucking morning and once you come downstairs

982
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:47,240
Speaker 1: for breakfast, your fucking hair's never done, your breath steaks.

983
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 3: Do you have any silf respect at all? Jesus nippicking

984
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 3: towards the end.

985
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 1: Well, a black guy played with a Newcastle who ended

986
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: up going down in there Penrith. He had a tough time,

987
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,439
Speaker 1: he didn't play well, out of form and he wasn't

988
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: he admits himself. He said he wasn't really toe on

989
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 1: the line. And he said he got there once playing

990
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 1: Newcastle at Penrith and Gus just come into the sheds

991
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 1: at halftime and he goes, he come here and pulled

992
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,800
Speaker 1: his wallet out, got a heap of coins and just

993
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,799
Speaker 1: threw the man and said, get the fucking train back

994
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: to Newcastle.

995
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:17,919
Speaker 2: You're done.

996
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 3: I remember the year when I left Melbourne and signed it.

997
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 3: Mainly right before I signed it, mainly I met with

998
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 3: Syra camp Serroundo at that cafe.

999
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: Mate.

1000
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 3: It was how stupid, zero, how dumb of you. Anyway,

1001
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 3: he goes, mate, me jo Bell's tomorrow, me and Gus

1002
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 3: will be there and I was like sweet, and I

1003
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 3: was kind of like and I don't know. You used

1004
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,839
Speaker 3: to work with Gus quite a bit at Channel nine,

1005
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 3: but I don't know if I if I met him.

1006
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 3: I was really young. I can't remember meeting him. So

1007
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 3: I was kind of nervous because obviously he's I got

1008
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 3: an aura around him, and I was like, sort of

1009
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:52,760
Speaker 3: hype myself up all day. I don't get too nervous

1010
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 3: to meet me. People just kind of nervous that I've

1011
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 3: gone in, right. I thought about a couple of jokes

1012
00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 3: to sweeten it up. Walked in and it's just Row.

1013
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 3: Then I went, oh, where's Gussie. Guess no, they just

1014
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 3: texted me. Then he said, no, you can do it

1015
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 3: on your own. That must have gave you the feeling that.

1016
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 2: Said.

1017
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 3: I was like, okay, so Ciro's just CIO's just taken.

1018
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 3: This meeting is a charity meeting, and there's no chance

1019
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 3: of getting you signed to this club. To be fair,

1020
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,360
Speaker 3: they had thirty two players signed in their top thirty

1021
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 3: at this stage. They actually had to cull two or

1022
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 3: three people.

1023
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,440
Speaker 1: Isn't a wonderful, but that's a wonderful excuse in this

1024
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 1: surly cap age. Mate, we're desperate to sign you, we

1025
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: can't fit, we haven't got a spot left or the

1026
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,319
Speaker 1: salary cap iss squooze are hard, brother.

1027
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the best way you can get away with murder.

1028
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: Okay, on your teammates, yep, give us some insights for

1029
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,720
Speaker 1: the Doggies fans. Who's the fastest in the squad?

1030
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 2: The fastest? I think Bronson, Yeah, I think in precesson

1031
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 2: you've got the fastest time. Roger for bree take a bow,

1032
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:58,399
Speaker 2: Roger strongest, Oh, pound for pound to be Curtis Myron. Oh, yeah,

1033
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 2: he's Yeah, he's little beast. He's a little beast in

1034
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 2: the gym. You met the old man, you met his

1035
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 2: dead his uncle Brad, his uncle Brad.

1036
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 1: Good here. He's a tough player, very very good player.

1037
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 1: Good fella too, really good fellow, bad head, bad head

1038
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 1: on it. But you don't get a little Blake. Look

1039
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 1: at Blake's head and you don't like. But he bucked

1040
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:17,360
Speaker 1: that train. He was a good fella.

1041
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 2: Most annoying team mate, Oh, most annoying. Like I said,

1042
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 2: I'm pretty nice. I just throw Harry Hayes under the

1043
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 2: bus we drive together, so you can be honest. I

1044
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:33,400
Speaker 2: love listening to Maxicans.

1045
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,839
Speaker 3: Sometimes I've got I went back to you know, when

1046
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,000
Speaker 3: you go back to your camera roll, just go back

1047
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 3: and just like reminisce on some years.

1048
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 2: Mate.

1049
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 3: We've just got some the funniest videos of King. He

1050
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,240
Speaker 3: just in his budget smugglers in the sheds, just chewing

1051
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 3: everyone's ears off. He was just reminded me how big

1052
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 3: a pest he was when we all went on a

1053
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 3: team trip to Bali as well. Yeah I've heard about

1054
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 3: I really have heard about that trip. Yeah, yeah, those

1055
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 3: were Nelson started to punch someone's face. Mate, King he

1056
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 3: was he was, he was so funny man, he was

1057
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,239
Speaker 3: just he was driving him. He's such a good good

1058
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 3: for Team Raley vibe. But if you get him on it,

1059
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 3: if you're in a bad mood on a day and

1060
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:17,399
Speaker 3: King corners, oh it's a long day.

1061
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,840
Speaker 1: Who's the most okay, who's there's obvious places who are

1062
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 1: really skillful. Who's a bloke that would who surprises you?

1063
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 1: Trained with the dogs as far as their skills consumed, I.

1064
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,840
Speaker 2: Say it wouldn't surprise me. But Bailey Hayward's very skillful

1065
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:34,240
Speaker 2: and he puts a lot of work into it. He's

1066
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 2: a good touch footy player, right, yeah, he was growing

1067
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 2: he growing up is really good. Yeah, I've heard stories.

1068
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:41,279
Speaker 3: Got played against him back in touch.

1069
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,760
Speaker 1: You've played against everyone in touch.

1070
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,840
Speaker 3: Footy though under fifteens or something, because one of the

1071
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 3: boys said, we was playing the other day and they

1072
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 3: were like, we played against him up at State Cup somewhere.

1073
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:54,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, up in Port Macquarie. Skillful player, very skillful and

1074
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 2: yeah he's obviously he was a touch back background. It

1075
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 2: kind of kind of helps.

1076
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, skill, but he should tip offizes those players in

1077
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 1: your middle field and like Kurt that can do a

1078
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:02,800
Speaker 1: bit of everything.

1079
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, can play a variety of different positions, and he's

1080
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:08,880
Speaker 2: been doing a really good job for us this year.

1081
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:13,319
Speaker 1: How's Kirk going, Jack is a question because I know Kurk,

1082
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:15,800
Speaker 1: but I don't know him well. Killer a bit of

1083

00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,160

1128
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 2: Yeah? I was a Manly fan obviously, growing up on

1129
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 2: Norm Beaches. So and me and we were very dominant

1130
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:34,320
Speaker 2: at the time. Kind of seven to thirteen fourteen was

1131
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:35,680
Speaker 2: kind of the peak of their power.

1132
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 3: It was your favorite player.

1133
00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 2: I used to love Bred Stewart obviously and Jamie Lyon,

1134
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 2: but then I got to know Chuck everything what mos

1135
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 2: throughout the years as well.

1136
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,320
Speaker 3: He took Quirky cat.

1137
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 1: A good players during that here were fifty fifty's Jamie Lyne.

1138
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:57,239
Speaker 1: You talk about, you know, best presence being coming. I

1139
00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 1: don't know it's going to say ugly wrapping. It's not

1140
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:01,920
Speaker 1: the right but you look at him and you go

1141
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:04,799
Speaker 1: and then as soon as the ball hits his hands

1142
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 1: and everything, he's just yeah, junius football.

1143
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,359
Speaker 2: He would have played a lot more kind of rep games.

1144
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,399
Speaker 2: I think he stopped playing for a bit there as well.

1145
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 1: He just he just got to the point he said,

1146
00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: I don't need it and he was happy being a

1147
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,399
Speaker 1: club football. I got a bit of criticism at the time,

1148
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:19,719
Speaker 1: but at the end of the day he just goes.

1149
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 1: I just I love playing football, love playing with the mates,

1150
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,200
Speaker 1: and that's why I did. I mean, he quit Paramatta

1151
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 1: and went for twelve months, went back to we War

1152
00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 1: and just did pig shooting and played for the local side.

1153
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:32,959
Speaker 3: I think I think Bozo and those books at Manley

1154
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 3: basically had to go out there and convince him to

1155
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:36,880
Speaker 3: come to Manley. I think he was happy just.

1156
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 2: To not to stay out there.

1157
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:38,959
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure he was happy.

1158
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, he came back to Manley. He went to St Helens. Yeah, yeah,

1159
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 1: James Grahams so he turned up and they went look

1160
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:47,520
Speaker 1: at this bloke like he's he's been basically strapped himself

1161
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 1: to the Sizzler buffet for the last six months. And

1162
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:53,879
Speaker 1: then they he said, mate, listen'd fitness nearly lapping him,

1163
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 1: and as soon as they started to do boor work

1164
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 1: and everything, they just went, oh my god, look at

1165
00:48:58,480 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 1: this guy.
