They 152 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 3: were like, okay, come in. I got so drunk, so drunk, 153 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 3: I passed out in their living room and I woke 154 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 3: up the next day like not remembering where I was. 155 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 4: And I walked out the back. 156 00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 3: And I was like where am I was like seeing 157 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 3: Monavel Beach and I was like what And I looked 158 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 3: back and I sort of like stumbled into. 159 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 4: Nathan's parents bedroom. 160 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 3: Their back door was open, and Ivan was just sort 161 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 3: of like laying there asleep with the sheets half on him, 162 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 3: but he was sleeping Noots. I could see what was 163 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 3: going on downstairs, Nathan. 164 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 2: And It's not a tough question, but was it tough 165 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: for you with the Jerome thing in the off season? 166 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 2: Was a little tough, it was. 167 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 6: I think over time you begin to realize that, you know, 168 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 6: it is a business. I think when it first started 169 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 6: happening then like when we had that first year's success, 170 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 6: and then you see people start to leave, like Burdo 171 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 6: was probably the first big one to leave, followed by 172 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 6: kicks Uppy Crito this year, So. 173 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: You've become a little bit used to it. 174 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 6: I think Romey has probably been the most difficult one 175 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 6: because obviously Harve's partner. We've been lucky enough to share 176 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:55,239 Speaker 6: that success We've been playing together at Penriths until fifteen 177 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 6: years old. But you know, at the end of the day, 178 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 6: he's got to make the right decision for his family. 179 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 6: You know, he's got three beautiful kids. Now he's got 180 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 6: a partner. Had been lucky enough to have success with 181 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 6: all these close mates that you grew up with, and 182 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 6: now it's a new challenge team. So I think you 183 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 6: can see it from both sides. It is hard, but 184 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 6: you know that's that's just the. 185 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 4: Era we're living withal how is it now? It's training, 186 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 4: It's good. 187 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 6: Honestly, it feels normal. I think the best thing for 188 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 6: it was just getting it done. You know, once that's 189 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 6: out of the way, it's sort of, you know, full 190 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 6: steam ahead to what we want to do this year. 191 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,679 Speaker 6: And now that this for everything's done with the Tigers, 192 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 6: it's yeah, it feels normal and it feels like we're 193 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 6: building towards something. Especially how has the last three months 194 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 6: been after the Grand Final? Love, It's probably the most 195 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 6: I've ever been recognized. Like I went to Melbourne, went 196 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 6: to Perth, got recognized both there. 197 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: I was getting recognized. 198 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 6: Even in America sort of here and there, and then 199 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 6: you obviously private life is, you know, everyone becomes more 200 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 6: interested in that. So it's been saying to adapt to 201 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 6: I think I'm naturally an introverted and quite private person, 202 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 6: but sort of realize that it's things that you can't control. 203 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 6: You just got to find ways around it and just 204 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 6: deal with it. 205 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 2: You get pepped, you know what's happening, long angle lenses, 206 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 2: things like that. You go from the back pages, you're 207 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 2: more on the front pages. And had your mum handled that. 208 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: She hated it, she was, yeah, she was just couldn't 209 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: understand it. 210 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 6: Really.

Obviously she's only seven eight 214 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 6: and then mums come out and just lost her. This 215 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,439 Speaker 6: sort of pappened, and then they were waiting out in 216 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 6: front of my house as well. So it was just 217 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 6: like it was just weird, Like I just couldn't understand 218 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 6: why people would want to do that. 219 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 2: Cooper gets frustrated by the paparazzi that they won't take 220 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 2: his tra. 221 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 3: Actually down to the beach, goes my shirt off, being 222 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 3: a bit of an introvert you probably are with that 223 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 3: media sort of side, you know, things like I've been 224 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 3: doing work for Cole and Jack Yell and they always 225 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 3: you know, they're not a sporting show, they don't know 226 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: anything about sport, but they're always like, you know, I've 227 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 3: told you this before the last year, they're always pepping 228 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 3: me to try to get you on the show around, 229 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 3: even with the podcasting and interviews.

That must have been strange. Yeah, 246 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 2: it was weird. 247 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 7: Mum. 248 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 6: Mum hated it.

It was 254 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 6: just no footage chat. It was just like just sort 255 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 6: of dead pen and each other. Mum was just trying 256 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 6: to make like all conversation and the family was split, 257 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 6: like my younger sister was going for the Tigers, my 258 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 6: little brother was going to Penrith. So it was funny 259 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 6: times is that. I think even Dad didn't really like 260 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 6: it either. 261 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 2: How does Ivan coach here these days? Is he harder 262 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 2: on you than the rest or you just another player? 263 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 6: No, just another player in a video session? Say if 264 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 6: I do something well, he will let one of the 265 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 6: other coaches say that I've done it well. There's not 266 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 6: often he'll say, oh, he's like my son's the one 267 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 6: doing that well. 268 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a drone. Need to work on that, 269 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 2: you know, Brian to think about that. Nathan brilliant. 270 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 6: He takes himself out of that conversation, which I which 271 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 6: I enjoy. And yeah, like I think the way he 272 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 6: is a coach is how he is to me, Like 273 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 6: he's pretty cool, Like he's never really blown up. He's 274 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 6: never really given people too many praises either. The way 275 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 6: he'll tell me things is he'll just like pull me 276 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 6: aside and say, oh, you're doing this, you're doing that. 277 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 6: So it was pretty normal now at the start was 278 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 6: a bit weird, but I think we've found sort of 279 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 6: that happy meet him and it helps when you're gone, Well, 280 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 6: I guess. 281 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,599 Speaker 2: Can you tell us the Natty Woods story? 282 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 6: So this has just been regurgitated through like my parents, 283 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 6: but the other people. 284 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: Know Naddy would was a player. He's a massive scully wag. 285 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 2: It was a terrific player Tigers Roosters and went over 286 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 2: to the Warriors. 287 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 7: Yeah. 288 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 6: So he's quite notorious for pulling pranks, I think, And 289 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 6: he thought one day that he would go to our 290 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 6: place and try and scare my dad. So he somehow 291 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 6: got into the house, was upstairs, got into the house, 292 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 6: was wearing a mask and I was like pitch black 293 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 6: in the room. And then anyway, so he's assuming that 294 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 6: Dad's going to walk up and he's scaring him. But 295 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 6: I was probably like three at the time. I wandered 296 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 6: into mom and Dad's room and he just jumped out 297 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 6: with this mask and I'll just absolutely ship myself just 298 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 6: crying and then Mum and dad had come up, but 299 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 6: what's going on? 300 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 7: And he was just standing there. 301 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 2: So, oh man, because. 302 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 4: Nady would type of fletch, isn't it. 303 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 2: Yeah?

Barry was 312 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: a terrific footballer and could obviously really blue because he 313 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 2: was basically Kerry Packer's bodyguard slash right hand man for 314 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:30,439 Speaker 2: I think about twenty years. So you've won three. Tell 315 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: me about what did you learn from the first one, 316 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: the one that you lost. 317 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's probably been one of the biggest learning curves 318 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 6: I've had in my career so far. And I'm actually 319 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 6: grateful for it now. At the time, it was worst 320 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 6: thing ever, Like I just was hating myself. But I 321 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 6: think after the intersept that was That's been a big 322 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 6: turning point for me in my reaction to mistakes going forward. 323 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 6: Like after the intersept, I was in flight mode, like 324 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 6: out of the game for the next thirty minutes. So 325 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 6: I can just thinking back to that, and it was 326 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 6: actually affecting the way I was playing. 327 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 2: I wasn't just wasn't in it, Like I was there, 328 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 2: but I wasn't. 329 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 6: In the biggest moment, I was like the scame my 330 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 6: career at that stage, threw it in a set we 331 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 6: went down to score, and then the way I reacted 332 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 6: to that just harmed the team and harm myself. It 333 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 6: just didn't even give us opportunity to get back in 334 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 6: the game. And I sort of fast forward that to 335 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 6: this year, like I had similar moments where you know, 336 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 6: I made mistakes and letting tries, but the way I 337 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 6: reacted that was so much better and it actually sort 338 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 6: of helped us. 339 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 2: The last truck. What do you remember from your last truck? 340 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: I wanted to. 341 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 6: Play before that, like I thought I reckon I would 342 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 6: have scored the play before that, like I was were 343 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 6: sort of I sort of had this scene in my 344 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 6: head the whole week, worked on a few things down 345 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 6: that left side, and as the game went on and 346 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 6: the more threatening critic got I sort of knew that 347 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 6: Katonia was going to be worried about him. So I thought, 348 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 6: on the play before, if I got it, there's a 349 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 6: good chance that coony was going to turn out. I 350 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 6: did end up getting I think he hit Sorrow and 351 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 6: I was on the short side, and I was like, 352 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 6: I still want to do it, Like I think it's 353 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 6: still there. 354 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 2: I just was calling hot. By the time the play 355 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 2: the wall was played, it. 356 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 7: Was like it just wasn't on. 357 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 4: There's four people had extra I was just. 358 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 6: Like, I was like, it's playing on the right time 359 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 6: to call it, but let's just do it, like, let's 360 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 6: see what happens. I just wanted I kind of just 361 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 6: wanted the ball. 362 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 3: Well that leads us in Campbell Graham on today obviously 363 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: been out for the year, but what an exciting and 364 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 3: good player and just a huge loss to the South Club. 365 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: That's a huge loss to South in seventy ways. He 366 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 2: was very much a part of some major combinations in 367 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 2: that side, So it wasn't just his loss and what 368 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 2: he brought to the side, what he brought to combinations, 369 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 2: particularly lochlann Ilius. When Lochland first got injured, I said, 370 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 2: this is going I'm sorry. When Campbell first got injured, 371 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 2: I said, this is going to have a big effect 372 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 2: on Lockey's football because Campbell was his go to man 373 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 2: to what's tretch it's had you not been there, it's 374 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 2: had a big effect on the team and a big 375 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 2: effect on certain individuals. When it was first said that 376 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 2: you weren't going to play for the rest of you 377 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 2: or missed the chunk of the season, straight away, I thought, 378 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: the bloke he's going to suffer the most locke Ilias 379 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: because watching you two blokes on the right, he struck 380 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 2: up a fantastic combination, particularly on short sides and key 381 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 2: on as well, that combination. You're not being there had 382 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 2: a real effect on that combination. 383 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think so, you know, sort of as I said, 384 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 7: it was sort of the back end of the preseason 385 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 7: as well, where that decision was made to get surgery, 386 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 7: so as a task moved over to the right, and 387 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 7: I suppose there wasn't too much time for them to 388 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 7: build that combination that we mean, Lockey and Keon had 389 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 7: already created this season before. 390 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 4: So it's hard. 391 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 3: Like those people who have played regular league, it takes, 392 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 3: especially at that level, like it takes seasons to get 393 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 3: an edge to click and to actually build a combination. 394 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 4: You Lockey and Keon. 395 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 3: You struck that really good one up last year, but 396 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 3: it took a couple of years to get that good 397 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 3: combination on that right edge. 398 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 399 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 7: Absolutely, And I think something that sort of definitely helps 400 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 7: out is our off field relationship. Me and Locke are 401 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 7: pretty close, so I think that definitely filters onto the field. 402 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 7: And not to say that Locke's not, you know, it 403 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 7: doesn't have a good relationship with the other players in 404 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 7: the team, but you know, it's sort of just naturally 405 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 7: happened for us last couple of seasons. 406 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 2: What is your favorite movie line? 407 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 7: By the way, Oh, when it comes to mind, the 408 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 7: ones that come to mind always are comedic one.

He's still sitting in our living room. 453 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 2: When we worked at Triple M Stretch. There's a very 454 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 2: famous Rod Stewart story. Whether it's true, I don't know. 455 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,479 Speaker 2: Every single person miss to get on. I'm talking like 456 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 2: we did it with opposition Luda, Wayne and Swan. You 457 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 2: just have you got a Rod Stewart's story for and 458 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 2: they go, no one, do you want one? 459 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: Yeah? 460 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,439 Speaker 2: So Rod Stewart Stewart story is the Rod Stewart's in 461 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 2: the seventies right, He's out partying Stream Fellows in London anyway. 462 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 7: Out of his stummach. 463 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, AnyWho state of origin. This year I wanted to 464 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 3: get your opinion. Who would you pick as the true soundard. 465 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 3: A lot of people in jarred hitting because a lot 466 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 3: of people are hurt. It's not slim pickings, but a 467 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 3: lot of the favorite to hurt. So who would you 468 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 3: have in there? 469 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,959 Speaker 7: I think I would I would put the Trail in there. 470 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 7: I think he's a big game player. I think you know, 471 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 7: he's performed the origin level in Grand Finals. Yeah, I think, 472 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 7: you know, regardless of how our team's perform, and you know, 473 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 7: I think you put him in our rap side and 474 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 7: he's going to do something special. So I would have 475 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 7: Latrell at left center. And then there's a couple of 476 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 7: players you know that spring to mind this season. Zach 477 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 7: Lomax has been impressive, he's been in good form. Tago 478 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 7: has been in good form, So Steve Crichton, Stephen Crichton. 479 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 6: So there you go. 480 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 7: I think I think there is still plenty of depth 481 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 7: in that position. 482 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 4: Who's your right center them? 483 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 7: I think I would have to go with Crichton. I 484 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 7: think a bit like the Trail, He's been there, done 485 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 7: it on the bigger stages, and you know, he's so 486 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 7: impressive with some of the moments, you know, big moments 487 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 7: that he can pull off. 488 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 2: I'm with you a Latrell. Yeah, if I match and 489 00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 2: I see in recording this Bunny's are about to play. 490 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 7: In the against against. 491 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 2: Para matter if latrelle, if Latrell's even seven out of ten, 492 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 2: I pick him. Because you've just got presence. 493 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 3: Wayne Bennett coming to the club next year. I suppose 494 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 3: we wanted to ask you your first impressions when you 495 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 3: heard Wayne Bennett just ink pen to paper to come 496 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 3: to South Sydney. 497 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 7: Probably excitement. Yeah, I built a pretty good relationship with 498 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 7: Wayne in his three years with us previously. And I 499 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 7: suppose almost a sense of relief as well, that I 500 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 7: knew that we were getting, you know, someone like Wayne 501 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 7: back into the club who I've got full faith can 502 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 7: take us back to where I believe we belong, which 503 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 7: is up at the top end of the table. And 504 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 7: so I definitely think they were my first two thoughts, 505 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 7: and probably one of my other thoughts is if you 506 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 7: remember my name? Because he's pretty good at forgetting so 507 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 7: we might have to reintroduce himself to me. 508 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 2: Now today on the backstage with Kooper made John's, we 509 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 2: have got one of the greatest players in the modern 510 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 2: era in my opinion. He said he's had a couple 511 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 2: of he's had some tough runs with injuries, but when 512 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 2: he's fully fit, you know, there hasn't been a better 513 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 2: tacking player. And we're talking about Tom Travoivic Turbo told 514 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 2: teammate of yours. 515 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 4: Old teammate, old old friend, what's the look to play 516 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,719 Speaker 4: with with Turbo? 517 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:29,880 Speaker 7: Very good? 518 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 3: I mean he got hurt the year we played together, 519 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 3: did the peck in Origin last year obviously, but I 520 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 3: mean when he started the year round one and he 521 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 3: really built into his year once he started getting gone. 522 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 4: Was unbelievable to play with. 523 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 3: And just the confident like he wasn't you know he 524 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 3: probably he probably didn't have as big a like his 525 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 3: impact on the game that year come back from a 526 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 3: big injury. It wasn't as big as his twenty twenty 527 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 3: one Daily M season, but just the confidence and the 528 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 3: aura that he's got out there like it, it just. 529 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 4: Makes a team incredible. 530 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 3: And there was I remember there was a game in 531 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 3: particularly we played the Battle of brook Vale against the 532 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 3: Melbourne Storm and Turbot was just on on fire that game, 533 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 3: like he just had a big game. He could just 534 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 3: really pull a rabbit out of that hat. 535 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 2: When look when he's fully fit and playing mainly top fourteen, 536 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 2: that's it he I think looking through the league there's 537 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 2: a number of clubs that are really dependent on one 538 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 2: player Newcastle Knights, who's klm pie and think there's a 539 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 2: few others around. 540 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 4: It's funny. 541 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 2: I haven't seen a center have as big an influence 542 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 2: on a team as Stephen Crichton at the Bulldogs, but 543 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 2: of course Tom Travoivich and mainly I think he's probably 544 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 2: the number one. Let's say he's probably not. Yeah, he's 545 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 2: been the most influential. You're an excellent student. What did 546 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 2: you What did your score on the HS. 547 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 8: So it's ninety four? 548 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 4: Mass nerd weird? You go with numbers? With numbers, Yeah, 549 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 4: that was the thing, Matt, you're good mates. 550 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 3: Do you find your you being good with numbers as 551 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 3: a full back particularly, do you find that do you 552 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 3: find that helps like looking down a short side you 553 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 3: always know when you've got the overlap and knowing those 554 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 3: like tendencies of shape. 555 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 8: I think I think it does. Yeah, it's not obviously 556 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 8: you don't need it, but I think it's definitely helped 557 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 8: me a lot of paying fullback and certain the lineup 558 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 8: is about numbers, and. 559 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 2: It's really interesting, like when you work with some ball 560 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 2: players sometimes and you actually look and you teach them 561 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 2: to count numbers, and that can be really difficult when 562 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 2: you're on the run. On the run you go, you know, 563 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 2: wanted to know you're trying to count them and there's 564 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 2: bloke's coming back into the line of which way they going. 565 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 2: A lot of times it's like gut instinct. 566 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, you kind of I like to work off back 567 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 8: rollers because you kind of know in a defensive line 568 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 8: outside of back row, like the back row was four 569 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 8: in so you kind of use them as your markers 570 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 8: to what you need. Obviously it's not always like that, 571 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 8: but that definitely helps you. But it is just cudding sync. Yeah, 572 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 8: like they can say, oh you need five from here 573 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 8: or six a year, but you've got to feel it. 574 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 8: Sometimes if you've got two of their halfs on one 575 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,640 Speaker 8: side of the field, you to give them an extra number. 576 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: So when it was announced that Jake wasness Files captain, 577 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 2: I can only imagine your mum and dad. They must 578 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 2: have Big John must have went off. 579 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 8: Yeah, Big John almost cried. It was it was pretty 580 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 8: It was actually Mum and dad drove at my house 581 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 8: and you know, they were just hoping that Jake was 582 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 8: going to be obviously, and then when then when he 583 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 8: called and said he's in, they're all so happy. And 584 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 8: then he goes and I'm a captain and everyone's kind 585 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 8: of froze for a bit. Shit, it's pretty crazy, like 586 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 8: captain in New South Wales, Like not too many people 587 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 8: say they get. 588 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 3: To, particularly when you're not even captain of the club side. 589 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 8: I think that's why it took him by surprise a 590 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 8: little bit, because you know, like he just wanted to 591 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 8: get in and he loves playing for New South Wales 592 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 8: and you know he's very passionate about it and just 593 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 8: wanted to play again. And then all of a sudden 594 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 8: he's been told his captain. So he was you know, 595 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 8: big kurbball for him. But he took it, you know 596 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 8: a few days to take it on board. But I 597 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 8: think it's been really good for him. But Teddy reached 598 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 8: out to him and seen him a nice message and 599 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 8: that made him feel a lot better. So you know 600 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 8: he's really growing into that role now. 601 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 2: And yeah, obvious choice there's another bloke, Like he's the 602 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 2: bloke you want blokes I know sometimes he beats himself 603 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,479 Speaker 2: after a loss, but I'd like to see that someone 604 00:25:58,840 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 2: like who cares that much. 605 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 8: Yeah, he's so passionate. Yeah, and like you know Manly 606 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 8: New South Wales ever he's playing for he wears his 607 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 8: heart in his sleeve and he's a guy you want 608 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 8: to pay alongside. And everyone says that a lot, but 609 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 8: you know he really isn't. Everyone loves him And yeah, 610 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 8: I was just so proud of him. 611 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,199 Speaker 2: I love money as well. 612 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 8: Takes one to know one there, takes one to know 613 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 8: one there. 614 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 2: He's good money. He hacking like a quick It all 615 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 2: gets around it on this tight hoss. Hey, listen, just 616 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,959 Speaker 2: because I look at a bank and there's a Commons 617 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 2: bank teller and it's two dollars fifty to get some 618 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 2: money out, just because a walker kilometer to the am 619 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 2: Z bank. Just because I'm frugal, I'm not tight. I'm 620 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 2: just saying I find it unnecessary to give the banks 621 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 2: any more money they were to get. 622 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 3: Okay, I was more referring to the time that you 623 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 3: snuck many bottles of vodka into the Cholieri Beach Club 624 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 3: because you didn't want to pay an extra five dollars 625 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 3: for a vod Ca soda. 626 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 4: That's what I mean by tight. Turbo. 627 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 2: I don't do I don't do that anymore. 628 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 3: No, you would never because the poker's moved upstairs down 629 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 3: but wish they have. 630 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 2: Don't play. 631 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:09,119 Speaker 3: Pogy's great establishment and that became synonymous with Turbo rounds. 632 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 3: Turbo became synonymous at the Storm because we seen him. 633 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 4: Over in Bali. 634 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 3: He was over there when we were doing like a 635 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 3: mad Monday over there, and Turbo, being the good bloke 636 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 3: he did, he come over and bought like thirty drinks 637 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 3: for all of us on this huge treat. Yeah it 638 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 3: was he was smart. But ever since then everyone thought 639 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 3: that Melbourne thought it was like the greatest thing ever. 640 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 3: And that became synonymous with Turbo rounds. So whenever we'd 641 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,640 Speaker 3: go out, a chance would go out for a Turbo round, 642 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 3: and whoever was in the top three paid in the 643 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 3: playing squad would each every single time have to come 644 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 3: back with a round of thirty every single time. And Turbo, 645 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 3: I will say, anytime there is a drink, you are 646 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 3: you are great for putting rounds in people's hands. 647 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 4: Oh, I'll do it best. 648 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: You do. 649 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 3: All the boys say you and Jakie especially there has 650 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 3: been nights out where I haven't even put my hand 651 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 3: in the pocket. 652 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 8: Yeah, we've asked you to, you just don't want it. 653 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: Really. 654 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 8: Look, Dad was a bit like that. Used to give 655 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 8: a lot. So you know, we're lucky, we get paid 656 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 8: well to play foot you, so, yeah, give a bit 657 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 8: back to the boys. 658 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 2: So doesn't doesn't hurt even if you only played two 659 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 2: or three games. 660 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 8: Obviously, a good group of boys that weren't playing would 661 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 8: have to train every game day. They would do a 662 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 8: session and it was a tough session, but they like 663 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 8: some brother was in this group of people and he 664 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 8: was just like the whole time, we just don't want 665 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 8: Dairs to come out there because as soon as Des 666 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 8: comes out, the session just gets ridiculously hard. So he reckons. 667 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 8: They'll do warm up, they'll be looking around and looking 668 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 8: around and he's not there. How goods this coming? An 669 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 8: easy session? Then I'll get on the line to start 670 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 8: fitness and you'd see emerge from over the hill and 671 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 8: just stand there and just start abusing them all for 672 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 8: an hour and he reckons it was. 673 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 4: So hard, you just hate it. 674 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 2: I was telling DES's wife Chris when well Jack said 675 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 2: they used live across the road.
