It didn't feel like it 3 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: shocks me, was it to you? No, he's gone through 4 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:10,320 Speaker 1: and all that stuff up. 5 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 2: Well, you know, he had a great year last year. 6 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 2: He's probably got ripped off and didn't get the deli 7 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 2: em but that's the way the voting works. It might 8 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 2: have been a nice way to finish. But remember this guy. 9 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 2: I won the Golden Boot a few years ago. Based 10 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 2: international rugby league player. He's had a storied career. It's 11 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 2: been interrupted, it's been a little up and down. He 12 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 2: really has been. He's been the kind of character when 13 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 2: things go wrong, people love to kick him when he's down. Yeah, 14 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: he really tracks that because he's extraordinarily talented. He talks well, 15 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:42,959 Speaker 2: he's not afraid of saying what he thinks. He's a 16 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 2: good looking bugger. Well there you go. I wouldn't say that, 17 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 2: but you can as a babe was a babe. A 18 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 2: babe Kayla might want to have words with you, but look, 19 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 2: he's had a great career and when he started playing 20 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: off back in the day, he was a touch rugby 21 00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 2: player and all the werders like you should see this 22 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 2: Johnson kid out out of them all. Sure he is 23 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: something else and then the murmuring. So he started playing 24 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 2: for the Warriors as a junior. It's like, this is 25 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 2: the savior. This guy always thought he was a little 26 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: too small to be a half back and run over. 27 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 2: But he's much bigger now and he's developed. 28 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: How old is he? 29 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 2: I actually don't know. 30 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: That he does to be playing or was it just 31 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: because some. 32 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 2: Guys and girls playing for a very very long time 33 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 2: and you look at something like Brad Thorne. I think 34 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 2: he was seventy eight when he retired. They just don't 35 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 2: start there, but you get there. He's got a young family. 36 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: Rugby League's a hard game and you know what, I'm exhausted. 37 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm speaking for him. I don't know this what' 38 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: you're going to do? I'd say it ended up getting 39 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 2: into media. He might have been setting across from you 40 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 2: in a couple of years. Wow, you don't know. He's 41 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: well respected, he's well spoken, he's not full and he's 42 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 2: hot and he's hot. Yeah fine, okay, so you can 43 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 2: be on TV. That's a horrible way to go out, unless, 44 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: of course, he goes on a tear and the Warriors 45 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 2: when the next four or five game by one hundred 46 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 2: and then they get to this and then I. 47 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: Can give it up, mate, it's not going to happen. 48 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: It's over for them. Hey, Finn Butcher, what about this guy? 49 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 2: Was this? 50 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: Was this a surprise? 51 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 2: Yes, I think that's fair enough. I spoke to him 52 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 2: on was it Thursday or Friday last week? And I 53 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: thought it was just like a soul on the earth. 54 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 2: What a good dude. He was really like kanak. It 55 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 2: was like, yeah, like the rolling, it's a bit of 56 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 2: fat and paddling. Oh gets a bit brutal. Said to 57 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: me in the kayak cross, you know, you can pretty 58 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 2: much do anything you want on the way down there, 59 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: it's like, you know what, like board the other kayak 60 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 2: is not that far. You can't hit people on the 61 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: face with your paddle, but otherwise you're pretty much And 62 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: I thought, I like you, you're raw. So yeah, when 63 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,119 Speaker 2: he came through and me got out of the gate, quick, 64 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: quick man, whole shot. See you later, it's like, wow, 65 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 2: that lovely young man, the Butcher, as though I call him, 66 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 2: well n just predictable because his name's Finn Butcher. They 67 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 2: should have called him the carnivore. 68 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: I'd rather you take a little further. Yeah, I can see.
